Custom ROM's ? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hi,
Recently got a Galaxy S7 (up from Note 5)....
Came to the XDA forums and theres absolutely no custom ROMs out for this device....
Why is this so? figured this device would be pretty popular?
Will this trend continue or will some appear soon?
Cheers

The reason is the device is still quite new and the developer friendly snapdragon version is all bootloader locked and can't be rooted, let alone flashing custom rom.

True the phone has only been out for about 20~ days or so. But generally theres at the very least a stock ROM with root and a few of the other adjustments and alterations made to it by now.

Should try the TWRP + Root (SuperSu) function available on the ROMS and KERNELS forum. Worked fine for my new S7.

Just install xposed, that should feed your thirst for the time being.

yeah I already have twrp and root installed, just saw that there are newer firmwares available already and don't want to go through the whole process again.
installing an already rooted stock rom would be easier than having to go back to stock recovery etc...
let's hope rooted stock roms aren't far. if I knew anything how to do it myself I'd try my luck in making one

[Q] stock rom

Hi, I really need some help cause i am new in this (i owned htc desire g7 bravo),
I have bought htc one x at&t mobile. Hopefully by the next week it would be here. I was thinking to root it so I can delete all at&t crap apps. After some search I found out that at&t models always get the updates with a big delay time. So I want to find a stock rom (clean from branded carrier apps). I forgot to mention I live in Greece.
Most important for me is:
1)Greek language and keyboard
2)upgrades “on air”
3)stable and fast (stock sounds perfect)
4)of course choosing north American type means I wand better battery life so it’s going without saying that battery life is important
Any suggestions? I look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237 but no luck. Saying at&t on stock roms means there are at&t apps right?? Thanks a lot in advance!

A rooted stock rom is probably your best bet. Custom roms usually remove the OTA function for obvious reasons. Once rooted, the bloatware is easy to remove.
I think you have to load the Greek keyboard separately but I don't know. I think there is one rom with all the languages turned on but it's not stock.

So if i get it right i should look "Stock Rooted (Odexed/De-Odexed)"?? (not the "CLOSED" it is different)!
Anything on "Stock Rooted (Odexed/De-Odexed)" says telstra at&t and rogers does not suit me right?
Any other has ota updates and don't mess with bootloader or anything else??They are just rooted nad stock right?

The stock rooted roms should work on any One XL--they are usually debranded. But they are not all exactly the same--I would review the OP to be sure.
Only downside of stock rooted... You take the att ota, you break root access!!

Yes. Don't take the OTA.
Be patient and wait a few days for the devs to update their roms.
It's simply the downside of being rooted and rommed.

Yes.
On any Android device if you are rooted, don't update by OTA.
Its really that simple. How many times does this need to be said?
At a minimum, you will lose root. At the worst, you will not be able to root again (depending on what was changed in the OTA) or get stuck in a bootloop (or otherwise not be able to boot).

Definitely understandable bro. I recommend everyone to enjoy that honeymoon period of a new phone first, then customize the hell out of it. Nothing wrong with your doing, but like others have said don't take an update OTA if your stock. Just pop back in when you ready to really see what this phone is capable of

Even if you are on the stock ROM and rooted, you should not ever ever ever install an OTA, for the reasons I've stated in post 8 above.
If you want to install a new firmware version, they almost always get posted in Development in pre-rooted, but otherwise stock form, very soon after the OTA starts rolling out (sometimes even before the OTA, in case of a leak). Those are safe to install.
Thanks for the the explanations, guys.

I've taken OTAs on my stock rooted Nexus 7 without any problems. But Nexus devices are a special case--I would never recommend trying it on anything else.

Sure, there are exceptions. Apps like OTA Rootkeeper sometimes work too (but don't think it ever has on the One X) to keep root after an OTA.
I was giving the "short story" rule for n00bs to go by. The "long story" is not to accept an OTA unless you have researched in advance that it will work (such as from other users here); or you intend to be the guinea pig and live the with the consequences, whatever they may be.
Too many folks here jumped on the 2.20 OTA when it first rolled out, then came on here crying "Ohhh sh1t I lost root, and its not rootable".
"Don't ever OTA on a rooted device" is a good rule to live by, unless you reearch on here and learn otherwise. On the huge majority of devices, the OTA will not even install on a rooted device, anyway. And rooted versions of the latest firmwares always get posted here. So there is really no reason to gamble and take the OTA.

I don't quite understand, I mean the 2.20 firmware is rootable now, is this still unrootable even there's a way to root it?
And also I'm expecting the stock jelly bean rom which is said to be rolling out this month, and I don't care losing root for couple of weeks, do I have to do anything before I install the OTA? Or should I just install the RUU instead?

What happened was that people who took the OTA lost root, and it was months before someone found an exploit. That may happen again with JB if you take it.
It might take the devs a few days to a week to update their roms. Just be patient.
If you absolutely can't wait, you should be stock before taking an OTA.

Neither. As I already said, it will show up in a pre-rooted, TWRP flashable, but otherwise stock ROM in the Development subforum. It usually takes about a day before a dev gets ahold of the OTA file, and posts a pre-rooted version of it. Just flash that. And the way the OTAs roll out, you'll probably see the pre-rooted version on XDA before you even get the OTA notification.
You should just erase from your brain the concept of accepting the OTA.

There's nothing for JB because it hasn't been released yet. There are rooted versions of many of the other firmware versions in the development section; just look in the compilation thread at the top, which has them all listed.
So,i was lucky i started it before i get the phone on hands! I really thought that at&t takes a lot of time to give ota but it is not so long time!(max a month i think) I think JB hasn't pop up not even for htc(no-carrier branded)phones,always talking about s4 version or 4g as it is called. All stock rooted roms i check seemed good but most of times it was still branded. So to sum up i think i will stay with the stock rom till jb pops up,then i will root the phone deleting all at&t apps...!(only way i know to delete rom's apps is with at least root acces right is there any other?)
I think it is needed to be said againe that even if you have stock rom and ota pops up you dont't do the update but you get the update from xda cause stock root rom+ota can cause problems!
Silly question (i think) unrooting and then ota is as dengarous as stock root rom and ota????(it sounds ok and you avoid re-installing your apps)
All i need (FOR NOW OF COURSE) is a clear rom and get the original "hTC_bootup_one" and "hTC_downanimation" zip files to the right place to avoid at&t meeting every time i go to menu and every time i power my up phone!

[Q] Correct way to do this

Hi all, been reading the threads and have 'info overload' :silly: from so many different options. Just looking to get stock OS with root, and the latest update (mf1 I believe) so I can have stable 4g and the latest OS updates. Locked or unlocked BL does not matter. I do have Triangle away just in case it is needed.
In the past I went straight to mf1 and then did the 1 click Casual root. All was good except I had no 4g, even when everyone around me did. So I'm thinking of going to COMBINATION_I535VRALG1_I535VZWALG1_743127_REV09_user_low_ship.tar.zip and starting over.
Should I do ota's to get to mf1, or root first, install a root keeper app, and then upgrade.
Thank you all in advance for any advice you can provide. I tried searching on my own first but there is so much info out there.

You can just update then root as it requires less steps.
Root first. Then from the development section download the new ROM and modem which is separate and flash away. That's what I've been running with the KT747 kernel but others like the LK 3 kernel, so it's up to you whichever you prefer

I used the method in this thread to gain root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984436
It flashes a rooted stock rom (MB1) via Odin. Then used Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and took the OTA to MF1. Then restore root. 100% stock Rom + Root. I've had zero issues so far. Don't have to mess with flashing kernel, modem, and it doesn't trip the flash counter.

Custom Recovery for Kitkat

I was just wondering if there is any active development or effort going towards getting a custom Recovery for D800s that are rooted with kitkat. I know that you can go back to stock jellybean and then re root and put back the old recovery and then flash away, but I've been holding off on attempting this assuming some talented developer would create a new custom Recovery sooner or later. If nobody is working on it then that's fine and I can use the former method, I would just like to know if me waiting is pointless or not.
Thank you

AutoRec the only ting to keep in mind is that if you are going to flash an aosp/4.2 rom you also got to flash a kk baseband ported for aosp or the jb baseband
Thank you! How would I go about finding one of those basbands?
Edit: when looking at the Mahdi ROM thread I noticed there is a device specific "patch" file that I'm supposed to flash a long with the ROM, is that what you were referring to?

No the patches for some roms are because they support multiple devices and the patches are usually modified kernels to boot the different devices the baseband is for touch/gps/radio/rotation/etc there is a the w ad which has most of the jellybean basebands and cloudy has the stock kk basebands in most of his roms thread

[Q] Best ROM for running two apps max?

I have a retired S3 that is no longer on service with Verizon. It's stock rooted at the moment.
I'm simply looking for the best replacement ROM to run the essentials only, the phone will be running Torque Pro, that's about it..
Any recommendations?
Quick search and read. Will help you answer your own question.
My suggestion is stock rom.
Just be careful with vzw s3..you will brick if you try to root it if it's already on 4.3....actually you can root it, I think, but you'd be limited to touch wiz roms only. There are extensive threads on the subject and you should really check them out before doing anything.

I flashed a zip yesterday so I would think a properly made ROM would flash. I did try one yesterday but it didn't flash. I'm pretty sure it was a updater script error on my part. I haven't had the time to look into it further. As for our kernel we will have to use the stock one.

It's not going too good on my end. I'm sick of Odining back to stock. I must have done it about a dozen times after various failed mods. I'm pretty much calling it quits until a better recovery becomes available. FlashFire restore doesn't work for me so when a mistake is maid I have to go back to stock. Hopefully there will be some updates to make this more reliable. I'm OK with the few mods available and debloating for now.

Just out of curiosity are you trying to port roms already made for other devices? If so I would assume that the kernel on your locked phone cannot work with the system.img in the ported rom. What you could do is find a rom that is stock rooted only, no other mods or lightly modded and grab that script. From there download the verizon s6 system, extract it and add the su stuff then wrap all that in a zip. The permissions and symlinks should be close enough to get you booted and if it boots you can start working out all of the bugs
Sorry if you already tried all that, just want to help if I can.
*Edit*
Almost forgot Im sure you figured this out already but you would need to edit the boot out of the installer script
*Double edit*
Here is a non aroma rom for your installer script. He is planning on implementing aroma so you might want to grab it asap

misterxtc has helped me develop roms for the vzw s5 as well as his own roms. were not a+ devs by any means but we do have experience with it.. the rom created was im sure from his own build from the stock base rom for the vzw s6.
the vzw s5 also has a locked BL so we are very aware that you can only use roms compatible with the stock BL and kernel.. Flashfire does not appear to flash the BL or kernel at all but also cannot write the whole system without the kernel.
it has been tried multiple times by him and myself on my s6 edge and each time results in having to odin back to stock and start over.
We also both talked to hsbadr and his multisystem unfortunately does not work for us since we have no ext sd card.

Just out of curiosity are you trying to port roms already made for other devices? If so I would assume that the kernel on your locked phone cannot work with the system.img in the ported rom. What you could do is find a rom that is stock rooted only, no other mods or lightly modded and grab that script. From there download the verizon s6 system, extract it and add the su stuff then wrap all that in a zip. The permissions and symlinks should be close enough to get you booted and if it boots you can start working out all of the bugs
Sorry if you already tried all that, just want to help if I can.
*Edit*
Almost forgot Im sure you figured this out already but you would need to edit the boot out of the installer script
*Double edit*
Here is a non aroma rom for your installer script. He is planning on implementing aroma so you might want to grab it asap

I'm building from scratch with the stock tar. I did get one to boot but no luck deodexing it. I've got both aroma and kitchen ROMs to flash and boot but had some minor issues with superSU. I haven't had the mind to concentrate on much lately. We had to put down our 13 year old German Shepherd yesterday so I'm pretty tore up from that.

A recognized developer its a suprise I used youre rom on the s5 but it looks like you are building on the edge? Kind of wish I got the edge instead but oh well.

Thanks for taking a look at this and I hope your family gets better from putting down a best-friend/family member.
