[Completed] [Q] Got stuck installing custom ROM and rooting on Galaxy S5 - XDA Assist

Hi all,
I am completely new to this, but I followed all the instructions while trying to install a custom ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S5 900F
- I installed Samsung's drivers for S5 in Windows 8
- I installed Odin 3.09
- I loaded G900F-LP-XXU1BOC7-BOOTLOADER.tar.md5 and G900F-LP-XXU1BOC7-MODEM.tar.md5 (BL and CP)
- I (thought) I rooted the device by using CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.tar.md5 through odin (AP)
- I tried installing the ROM Zephyr Lite from my SD card, that didn't work because my phone wasn't rooted I think
After that, I tried a different method for rooting so I used Odin to load g900h-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7.tar
When I took a break, my friend booted up the phone and did a "factory recovery" thing from the settings menu and now it is stuck here (picture) and doesn't do anything else.

Update: problem solved
Through all the great posts in the forum I was able to solve the problem myself. I got a new flashable recovery on there (I think) and rooted it, got the really cool XtreStoLite ROM on there and am now delighted to be running things super fast and smooth on the Galaxy S5 F900.
Thank you XDA community I shall be returning here to learn more!

[Q] Problems installing ROMs on Nexus 7

I'm getting some troubling errors when going to install a Rom on my nexus 7. And Yes its rooted. II boot into recovery using TWRP do the factory reset. When I try and flash I get an error saying "Error executing updater binary in zip"Then "error flashing zip" I Have tried multiple ROMs with the same error, same error when tryin the sony sony bravia engine 2 or 3. The Odd thing Is when I flash a gapps either 4.4.4 or 4.4.3 flashes just fine. I have experience rooting and flashing Roms onto multiple phones so Im not just a newb. Any Help would be tight!

Xposed Installer won't install?

I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note Pro (AT&T version - SM-P907A) & I've been trying to install xposed framework, but it won't work. It doesn't give me any error message, it just says "app not installed". I'm no stranger to rooting, but this is the first time I've ever had to post a question on the xda developers site. Usually I can find what I'm looking for already, but not this time :crying:
I don't know if I'll be able to post a screenshot of what happens as I've just barely registered, but I'm gonna try. I also have a rooted Motorola Droid 4 and I rooted & installed CM12 on an old Kindle Fire HD as well. (However, that's now been sold...) Anyways, I tried installing Xposed Installer on my Motorola, and it worked, so I'm thinking the problem is with my note pro, but any help on how to fix it would be awesome
Thank you!!

You know what , the quickest method would be to changet rom and install the rom with xposed already installed by the way use titanium backup for making backups if you fear data loss

[SM-T550 Samsung Tab A] Flash to Marshmallow!

So I was just doing some ROM testing with this old Samsung Tab A (US Variant, Smoky Titanium) and discovered something wild. I don't know if the US variant received the Marshmallow update but here it is anyway, I got a successful flash out of it without a factory reset.

You can flash that with Odin 3.09 to get yourself to Marshmallow on this tablet. Change the system language back to Enlgish (US) and you have Marshmallow. (6.0.1) I am going to look into some root methods and attempt to put ViperMod on here at least. (Dolby Atmos edition)
I did some further testing and noticed better battery life and game performance. I will give KingRoot a shot to see if this version of Marshmallow is rootable. There isn't aworking TWRP for the Marshmallow build, but in Lollipop I disabled KNOX (KNOX WARRANTY VOID 0X1 (4). So I'm not sure if Ashryx' ROM had made the difference in allowing me to flash Marshmallow, but here's living proof:

Would I brick my device if I flashed this on the S-Pen model (SM-P550)?
