Flash the rom. That's about it. I've been running Cleanrom 3.0 for over a month now using the the firmware that came with the 5.0.1 update. Haven't had any trouble at all. Nothing's ever certain with these phones but generally, what works on one M8 will work another M8.
I tried bone stock and your cleanrom 3.0 bone stock failed and clean Rom flashed successfully but was stuck at a white screen with green HTC after boot then when I went to restore viper I didn't have signal until I rebooted for the third time which scared the pee outa me lol ! Am I missing something ? Maybe a bad download ?
Don't know what to tell you. I was running cleanrom 4 at the time I went back. I just flashed the rom. Kept the lollipop firmware though with one exception. I'm running the radio from 4.4.4. I had flashed it while I was on lollipop due to connection problems I was having at the time.
If it doesn't work for you I guess I'd flash the 4.4.4 firmware first, then flash the rom. Strange how something works on one phone and not the next. Android.

I'm just a impatient tard I tired it again this morning after posting and put the phone down long enough to make coffee and came back to a functional Rom ! Thank you for entertaining me lol ! And for your cleanrom suggestion I actually like it (I'm a AOSP fan man)
Yeah, that first boot can take a while. Glad it worked out for you in the end.

i am currently running cleanrom 5.0 and flashed the ktoonz kernal kt747 and needed help with the KTweaker app that was installed with it, im a noob with roms, kernels,etc.., ive been learning a lot and fell confident flashing and all but can anyone help me with the settings in the KTweaker app, im mainly looking for battery performance and this kernel was reccomended but after 1 day of running it my battery performance was horriable, thank you in advance for any help.
I'm on cleanROM 5.0 also. I tried the other kernals but ended up flashing the rom over again and kept the default kernal as I am getting great battery and performance. 14 hours and 19 minutes at 20% battery, with 4 hours of screen on time. If this helps any. I know you were asking about ktoons but thought I would give you this.
thanks i liked the battery performance on cr5 just fine, just was trying to get a little more, and like i said im still a noob can i dirty flash the cr5 or do i have to clear everything like when i first flashed rom?
All I wiped was both the caches and flashed the roms again. All my apps stayed. Everything works like a charm.
I want to flash this to my rooted but stock
I want to flash this to my rooted but stock phone... I have not changed recovery because I want the updates.... Is there a way to do this where I will continue to recieve ota updates.... totally updated at this point to jellybean... I kept having problems with roms and am sick of messing around with them.
Side note how is your reception after the last update .... mine pretty much sucks.
Thank you

No you cant. And for the reception part there is nothing you can do other then flashing a ICS radio with odin but then I think your ota will fail too. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34053-of...zon-sgs3-sch-i535-odin-or-recovery-flashable/
If you wanna flash a JB leaked radio (besides K3) then you will have to rock a custom recovery
For those of you who took the 4.3 ota what is your opinion of the updated ,and did you come from a custom rom.I was thinking of talking official 4.3 just curious to here feedback on it ,I know once I do it bootloader is locked for good .I am on Liquid smooth love it but I miss the Samsung features and having a glitch free phone I know ill get back on the verizon ota, been running custom rom since first week of owning phone think im ready to go back stock as long as official 4.3 is good

Why take the OTA when you can just flash the stock Rom? I personally like it but I've always liked TW roms

I know that there' one out there you can flash and maintain a unlocked bootloader but reading the thread sounds like there's a lot of issues with it I use my phone for work so need something 100% eliable Liquid is almost there but still have to do battery pulls get f/c's ,I did have another phone so it didn't matter now this is my only phone
let me rephrase that didn't mean take the ota but flash the official 4.3 which would lock boot loader to take the ota I would have to revert to stock then take the ota easier just flashing 4.3
After a long time flashing custom rom and kernel on my wife S3 and always hear complaints about issue, I decided to flash stock 4.3. Now she's happy with her phone, everything is working smoothly and the phone is pretty fast and snappy, battery life is the best. I have to say, 4.3 is a great improvement over 4.1.2. My recommendation is if you like to play around with flashing custom rom and ok with all the bugs hear and there then it would be fine, but if you want a daily driver, stable phone then stock 4.3 is the way to go. While she's on custom rom, many times when we at a party and when she tried to take picture the camera FC, or displayed weird color, the gps acting up, phone lockup needed to pull the battery to reset etc...Again, if you want a stable, good battery life, go with stock 4.3 and with just root.(I need root to install wifi tethering). Now she has a perfect phone and no more complaints.

that sounds like what I needed to here,did you flash 4.3 or revert to stock and take the ota not sure if there's a difference I already downloaded the stock 4.3
I've had zero issues on the 4.3 rom.
Make a backup and give it a run.

It's depended on what apps you installed on your phone, most of them should be fine with 4.3. When ever I upgrade to a new version, I like a clean install. Do a factory reset (this will wipe all your installed apps and reset your phone back to factory condition, make sure you have a backup of your apps), then let the upgrade run. Once done use saferoot to root.
from crack flasher to stock
i've been a crack flasher since my DX days, having flashed just a couple days after getting my S3. I've been on Hyperdrive, Synergy, AOKP, OSE, stock and various versions of CM to include the best, Mastamoons unofficial.
had to get a replacement phone, and as i was setting it up, the damn thing updated to 4.3 itself.
now... i still get that crackflashing urge, but i will admit, i like having the phone stock. i can make it look like its on any of the other roms, just with minor alterations.
antenna's on the latest is the best i've ever seen, everything works great, and don't see the lag on 4.3 TW as on others.
guess i can live with this for a while, and i do have faith in the DEV community that someone will break the latest, just as in previous versions. But for now, i can live with stock as everything works great!

Hey all, need a quick hand with my T-Mo LG G2 d801- 4.4.2 stock rom.
Process so far: towelroot>supersu>autorec>twrp>...
Tried flashing CM11, but after about 20min I figured I did something wrong, lol.
What version of cyanogenmod should I be flashing, 10 or 11? From the description of what AutoRec does to deal with the bootloader, it downgrades to the last vulnerable rom to install/enable custom recovery, correct? If so, does it stay downgraded or is that just to get the custom recovery in place?
Don't want to brick my phone experimenting, so here I am. Thanks in advance!
Also should have waited till after work, as I have no more time tonight to mess with it unfortunately. Back in 8hrs! :silly:
Nevermind, I got it working.

Autorec just flashes an older boot loader, with a stock based KK kernel that's compatible. Once up and running any stock based kernel can be flashed if running a stock ROM. It also supports running any after market ROM, however, if running a jb based ROM one needs to be on a jb modem, and if running KK a compatible modem. These are pretty much the only prerequisites.
Sorry, that was rather rude of me wasn't it? Apologies. Not fair to ask for help if I can't return the favor when I can.
Well, instead of looking around on the CM downloads page to get the most stable release, I just got the most recent snapshot of CM 11. Silly me
Turns out the right file to flash first was, of course, the last stable release for the G2 D801, which was CM 10.2.0 (at least at the time of this writing, as far as I know.) After getting the right file and trying again, I was rocking my first custom ROM. Go me! :good:
I have not yet tried the snapshot again to see if I could upgrade to CM11, as I hit another snag: I can't connect to my carrier anymore. I can see T-Mobile in the list for networks but selecting them does nothing, I get no service. Restoring the stock ROM works just fine, its like nothing happened, but running CM I can't connect. Any suggestions?
OK, so I got Boost 1031 and I flash them to Verizon 1028 firmware so we can use them on PagePlus.
I have flashed sever with this great guide but yesterday after flashing I allowed it to take te 4.4.4 ota and it worked fine but no 3G. I tried a few things without luck and decided to reflash the 4.4.2 firmware through fastboot. Apparently partition changes and such make this not work well. I guess I'm now stuck with parts of each and I can't seem to get either one back complete.
Symptoms: Reboots every minute or 2 and no wifi service.
I've tried sideloading the 4.4. ota, installing it from recovery and I also installed CWM, rooted and flashed a couple 4.4.4 roms and still wifi not happening and very unstable.
I began with unlocked bootloader, but stock otherwise. I really want to get it back to stock 4.4.2 or 4.4.4
I'm no expert by any means, but no noob either...any help would be much appreciated. I guess when someone release a complete 4.4.4 package I may be ok. Maybe a kernel or radio would work but I haven't found any packaged radios for 4.4.2
Fastboot & recovery are very stable...I'm back on stock recovery now.
BTW I flashed another today for a friend and updated it to 4.4.4 and everything worked fine...even 3G! I think I had a setting wrong in DFS is why 3G would work on the f'd unit.
Moral...Don't try to flash 4.4.2 over the top of 4.4.4
So, I'm sure I'm probably doing something incredibly stupid..
I just got my Note 5 today. I've been trying to flash a custom ROM, TEKXodus first and then Dr Ketan's ROM. I managed to get them to boot up (at least Ketans, I've been trying so long today at this point I'm not sure if I ever got TEKXodus to load).
However, after finally getting in, my SIM card isn't being detected, neither is the baseband and IMEI. The phone registers as a N290I instead of N290T.
Did I flash something wrong? Would the wrong version of recovery cause this? Kernels?
This isn't my first time rooting and flashing ROMs, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong this time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to start from scratch (square one) and odin flash the
official stock Samsung N920T Tmobile Marshmallow 6.0 firmware
before doing anything else.
You can find the N920T Marshmallow 6.0 firmware here:
http://sammobile.com
Good luck,
Have a great day!
The phone came with Marshmallow already installed I believe. Either way I've currently got the stock TMobile installed now and am still having the same problem.

Perhaps your phone came with the wrong version of Marshmallow 6.0 if the phone was not new when you got it.
Either way I bet you still have NOT Odin flashed the full official stock samsung N920T 6.0 Marshmallow firmware
which can be found at http://sammobile.com
If you finally decide to do the above be sure to do a full wipe and factory data reset before you odin flash.
And forget about roms until you get the phone working properly with the stock N920T odin flash firmware.
Will definitely double check and retry that when I get off of work.
And that worked!
Thank you so much, I was working off a different MM build apparently. Probably would never have figured that out by myself.
