Hello everyone,
Can someone please point me to a stock 4.24.651.1 rom? I need to get my phone back to stock. I rooted with unrevoked. I can only find odex or deodex (sorry if wrong) versions. I would like the original unrroted version if it is out there. Please, I have searched and just cant find what I am looking for. Even just a point in the right direction would help as I just can figure this out!!
1st wrong section
2nd you didn't look to hard
3rd - here you go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141
I tried that and followed that video already. I cant find the stock rom that is not rooted and some of the info I found there seemed out of date with a rom that was to old to use according to my phone. Im sorry if this is the wrong section. Im not sure shere to post. I thought this would be the appropriate section since I found a lot of ROM stuff here. I would be happy to post elsewhere if I knew the right place to post.
Maybe you were looking for this?

Keep in mind, if you are rooted, you will lose it. If you install any of the 4.2 ones you wont be able to root it again until they come up with one.
YES!!! Thank you, I believe that is what I need. I really appreciate you pointing me to that site. For some of us who dont get on the threads alot it can be a bit frustrating trying to find the right info. I appreciate your help and not slamming me for asking my question.
Nobody will "slam" you for asking questions but thy will for posting in the wrong section. But it was nice for Chamala to answer your question and let you know it was the wrong section.

I don't bother fighting the wrong forums, not searching, etc anymore. It's not worth the effort and XDA mods don't really care anymore, especially with the EVO becoming a budget phone.
Don't flash the latest miui.us version from ROM manager. I just flashed it and there's no keyboard. Can't input text to sign in or do anything!
This is not development. You could of just posted that in a existing MIUI thread.

Thanks for that helpful advice. I chose to post here where someone might see it easier and save themselves the aggravation that I'm now going through. I knew that I would hear from a forum snob but if I save someone from flashing then its all good .
What's aggravating about just restoring your recent backup?

This has nothing to do with development. It's your personal comment. What if someone else that has used ROM Manager and updated successfully? You never confirmed with anybody else. You would do this by posting in a existing MIUI thread (preferrably the one you downloaded the ROM from)

There should be a rule on ignorantly posting spam about someone's thread. I'm sure there is a way to report a thread if you are so inclined.
Furthermore MIUI.us often has issues. They don't just translate, they change **** up. I've flashed them plenty of times before with differences that shouldn't happen. I always use MIUI Android. Made by UK but its exactly the same language wise and they don't change anything; they just translate it, deodex and what have you.

take it easy, u might hurt ur self
ok its not quite in the right place, but no need to bite his head off.
anyway, in answer to your question, the way i removed the branding from my vodafone DS was this
http://revolutionary.io/ download this tool and follow its instructions, this will root your phone and give you a recovery tool that will allow you to flash a new ROM onto your phone.
With the phone rooted, you will be able to back up your data using an app from the market. Titanium Backup is the usual favorite.
EDIT : may be wrong about it providing root, I personally skipped the backup step as I had no data to lose, but if that is the case there are guides in the forums for obtaining root access
next look through this forum to find a ROM that suits your needs, from the sound of things you want the stock one, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1230029 should suit you.
download the zip file and transfer it to your SD card.
next you need to reboot into your recovery mode by turning the phone off, then hold the vol down button and power button together and selecting recovery from the menu
finally use the volume buttons to select install zip from SD card, and point it at your downloaded rom. it may take a few mins so allow it to finish then select reboot phone.
again this first boot may take a little time, but once its up you should have a debranded ROM as if you had just bought the phone new.
Add the details for your google account and redownload your backup app so you can restore your data and you are good to go
thank you very much for your help,
I shall give it a try,
by the way, will be able to install official updates on it, or will I have to stick with custom ROMs for ever?
thanks again

Nooo, not forever. Just until you get a new device
But seriously: Custom roms don't work with official updates. The trick is that most of the custom rom developers provide their own flashable updates for their roms. The difference is in the way you perform the update. There are even fairly developed custom roms, like MIUI, which have their own over-the-air updates (actually more often than official updates are coming.)
EDIT: In fact, you can switch back to a stock rom anytime and get the official updates back.

lol, possibly....hello,
although a lot of effort had been put into creating a lot of resources which are very user friendly, so it's quiet frustrating when they aren't even looked at.
Plus development is for just that, which is why the moderator moved the thread.

OK, I understand... but how do I get the official stock rom?, and by stock that means it has no Orange apps at all right ?

Once unlocked, i.e. rooted, you can use titanium backup or a root file explorer to uninstall the apps you don't need from the rom you are running atm.

Well, again: read around the forum a little, please. There is a sticky thread right on the top of the development section, called ROMS/RECOVERY/ROOT etc. It's a must read for newcomers. Very useful thread. There you find a link to a collection of stock roms. These are distributed as .exe files, so you can run them in windows and a simple-to-use installer will pop up and help you with pushing the stock rom to your phone. It is advisable that you double check that you are flashing the rom you really want. Someone here will help you to choose the right one.
EDIT: By the way in the general section (where we are now with this thread) there is also a very useful sticky. It's called Guide for Newcomers to Android. Seriously, it's a good read, given that you own an Android phone...

OK man, I will do that, thanks for the tips
Thanks chris5s, Ill definitely give it a shot.
This tool would help to get rid of the annoying Orange splash screen, and other useless apps could be removed as stated before.
Of course, best way is to install generic HTC European rom or custom rom of your choice.
Aforementioned tool would also help install roms, radios, etc, of your choice.
Good luck
Peace
Edit: sorry, Android flasher won't help install roms, but will help with installing custom recovery - Ext4 or Clockwork Mod - essential in s-off/rooted flashing.
im sorry if this is the wrong place to post...but the other parts of this forum dont get enough traffic.
I lost my imei when flashing stock rooted rom. I made a backup but when the phone restarted..the backups got erased. I dont know why this happend!! this is the worst case scenario. I tried flashing the stock rom from samsung dot com via odin....my imei still isnt restored!!
any other way i can get my imei restored even though i dont have a backup?? thanks in advancee
maybe this thread can help others with similar issues
So..
You ignored the installation and the forum instructions... ok.
I highly recommend the box at the top labeled "search".

I can understand why you would be peeved. But i used the search function. and found multiple ways of solving my problem. But none of which worked for me.
I was installing paid apps in other tutorials to try and fix my imei issue, and ended up with deadend after deadend. and furthermore..most of the guides werent specific to my phone. I didnt want to make my phone a "superbrick". I knew better than to post in the dev section...but i acted purely out of fustration and desperation. the user "orange808" was kind enough to point me in the right direction.
i know that doesnt justify it...but it wont happen again! i apologize
I appreciate all the devs hard work on this phone.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-910T) that I haven't used for some time. I want to install a custom ROM. I have already rooted it and installed a custom recovery. HERE'S the problem. No matter where I look I can not find a list of ROMS for this phone. I thought XDA-developers was the go to place for every custom ROM. I thought there was a way to search for ROMS for my specific device. No matter what, I can not find a place where I can search for "Samsun Galaxy Nore 4 (SM-910T)" and find a list of everything available. Like I said, I am a complete idoit. Please help.
Thankyou,

I haven't installed a custom ROM in about 6 years and I have only done it once. I seem to recall a LONG list of phones that you would search through for your device. THis site must have changed since then because I am not finding what I am looking for.. Isn't there a download page SOMEWHERE?

Well I don't know what you are looking for actually, but the third link in this forum directs you to the most recognized custom rom in the market - LineageOS. Maybe this is something for you to try. Just make sure this is the correct ROM for your device and read the instructions carefully before proceeding.
And yea, the site could have changed since 6 years ago... I'm here only for a 3,5

I thought there was a download page where every device was listed. I don't want to read about ROMS in the forum. I am looking for a list of ROMS for Download. I don't want to search through countless posts about all kinds of stuff. WHERE IS THE DOWNLOAD PAGE? Looks like the hardest thing about installing a custom ROM is actually finding it.

I think you have had some expectations, and XDA doesn't work like that (at least not now). For each device there is a separate forum, and under that forum you can find threads with ROMs, kernels, recoveries and other stuff. In each thread usually you can find download links along with the instructions on how to proceed with installation. So if you are really interested with installing custom ROM, you have to make the effort of searching and reading. There is no easy way, otherwise you can screw your device for good. Please take this into consideration
