[Im]patiently awaiting recovery, deodexed ROMs, and forum for U.S. models....

I've become an addict and didn't even know it. I simply cannot use stock phones anymore. I see that we now have root for T-Mo , Sprint Edge., etc. I also see that there is no TWRP, ROMs, or dedicated forums yet and the phone has been out for SEVERAL DAYS ALREADY . I've come to enjoy how fast the community responds with forums, recovery, etc., that the wait feels like an eternity....
It's great that the edge bar remains with a custom launcher app...

bro my phone rooted for three days now your looking in the wrong places

Don't know what you mean. My OP indicates that I am aware that there is root. That was not the point. The point was that there is no TWRP or deodexed ROM that I am aware of. If know that there is TWRP for Tmo or Sprint Note Edge, or someone has dumped the deodexed ROMs, or even dedicated forums for those phones, please do point the way....

its in the note edge general forums

Please be more specific. *What* is in the Edge General Forum? If you are referring to root--again, I have indicated that I already know that it is available. I also know that TWRP is now up. In fact, my Sprint and T-Mo Note Edges are already rooted. I am awaiting deodexed ROMs. Where can those be found in the Note Edge General Forum?

I suggest to continue be "impatient", or, go cook your own ROM. It's a Noobs paradise with a plathora of information and guides about. ....

(Im)patiently reading and thusly acknowledging this thread. Smh...

Canadian S6 (920W) - What ROMS can be flashed?

Hi All,
Just wondering if there are any custom ROMS here on XDA that can be flashed to the 920W (Canadian) version of the S6?
It's been a while since I've had a "regional" type device (Going all the way back to my S3) as usually I opt for the International version of devices.
That being said, I don't recall how careful I have to be when flashing a ROM that may have been made for a different regional version device.
Also... What is the best way to root the S6? I've heard lots about PING-PONG and how it won't trip KNOX but any advice is appreciated!
Thanks in advance from a Senior Member who feels like a NOOB all over again... lol...
Thanks,

PS... If I've posted in the wrong place please accept my apology... ☺

You're a senior member with almost two thousand posts and you still managed to ask your question in the wrong section...
T-Mobile ROMs can be flashed without the need for the audio fix, the same applies to AT&T ROMs.
Thanks to a few developers in the TMO section, you can now flash International ROMs along with a specific few kernels, or any kernel of your choice and a flashable patch for the call audio fix.

Lol... Ya I know but to be fair I did post in the Q&A section with no answers at all so I thought I'd try here... ? Thanks for the info...

Questions belong in Q&A.
Thank you.

So If I understand right, I can flash any at&t or t-mobiles roms for my g920w model?

[Completed] Buying used Galaxy S4. Which softwares are "rootable"?

I was about to start a new thread asking my question, but don't like to do that until I check to see if it's been answered already. The problem with this is I'm not even confident I know the correct terms to perform a valid search.
So, here are my questions: I'm planning to buy a used Samsung Galaxy S4 (AT&T) and I want to root it. Are there "versions" on this phone that are "rootable" and "non-rootable"? Which versions are which and what do I ask the seller to identify the version- the baseband version? Are there versions that themselves are not rootable, but can be easily upgraded/downgraded to another version that IS rootable?
I have the opportunity to buy an S4 that is on 4.4.2, running baseband I337UCUFNB1. If I buy this phone is it rootable?
Can anyone tell me if these questions have been answered already and if not, where should I post the above questions? As you can see, I have a lot of them.
I'm not necessarily interested in running custom ROMs, just want root and full control over bloatware, etc.
Thanks!

Any thoughts/advice on the best way to post these questions? I'd like someone more knowledgeable about this to give me some guidance.

Hi
Users of the AT&T S4 would be best suited to answer your question.
Head on over to the Q&A for the AT&T S4 and post your question there

Good luck.

Custom ROM absence

In my understanding (correct me if I am wrong) sgs7 us version with SD820 have locked bootloader and anything custom is really hard to do. People need to hack phone to do anything. With International Exynos version on other hand it's not as bad. We had custom recovery on first day and I do see ROM out there but it's slimmed down version of stock.
So it is possible to install custom Roms, but why there is none available. For years I've been using cm and I would very much to start using it again.
Thank you.

First of all, there are a few roms already available for the exynos variant, but they are all TW based. The reason why there are no other roms, is that the Qualcomm s7's bootloader is locked and it will stay that until samsung decides to unlock it. As for the exynos variant, the source code is not open which makes it very difficult for developers to build a rom. So before buying this phone, you should have done more research, because even if developers are able to build a cool rom like Cyanogenmod, then there is a very little change you will be able to use it as your daily driver. So this means that samsung is not developer friendly and it won't change until samsung decides otherwise.

This is the Development forum, not your own personal Q&A. Put threads in correct sections. Reported.

Lol it is q&a section buddy.
Thank you for your answer. I've gotten new Exynos Variant from work and I was thinking putting some custom ROM on it. Thank you for explaining this to me.
Cheers

There is no dedicated forum for the qualcomm varients , well there is but not being used ,there is for an eyanox processor but as since our bootloader are locked they have not been able to do any development and since all we have is root and exposed for the maybe long very long moment the threads for varients is being put in guides not android development

You peeps do have a forum
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/sprint-galaxy-s7-link
pretty sure mods would move any Snapdragon leaks to the correct forum , leaving them in Exynos forum can cause bricks etc.

We have a dedicated forum for our carriers but yet everything is being put in the guides thread which is mixed of all the carriers since basically all the s7 qualcomm devices run the same thing
