Hi,
My idol 3 Stock rom is for some reason causing my phone to bootloop forever and i plan to test a custom rom to see if there would be any progress.
My idol 3 variant is 6045K which does not have SD card
Thus, im not able to put custom roms to flash and im stuck with the mobile upgrade ! from alcatel which is retarded or sugar QCT software which is useful for stock roms only
Any recommendations how to workaround the bootloop and put a zip custom rom on my phone storage ?

You can always try that Alcatel flasher to flash a custom ROM. Make sure the bootloader is unlocked first.

Hello,
I have some problem to install custom rom and recovery on samsung US device
Can I unlock bootloader for this device ? what I should do to install Custom recovery ?
Thank's
Sadly, you cannot unlock your bootloader past the 4.1.2 update (excluding 4.1.2), and the only custom recovery that works is SafeStrap. All of the ROMs you install past said update must be on the TouchWiz kernel, so there's no escape.

Thank you

You're going to have to provide a lot more info cuz that doesn't make sense. Flashing a custom recovery on a Verizon S3 (SCH-I535) with 4.3 or 4.4.2 causes a hard brick upon rebooting the phone.

Thank's

I presume you are also on the 4.4.2 bootloader and modem, and not on an earlier bootloader/modem pair and a custom 4.4.2 ROM. If this is true, NE1 bootloader and modem, you have very few options. I think there are three ROMs to choose from: stock, SuperLiteROM, and PaulPizz. Before installing either of the last two you will need to root and then install the Unofficial SafeStrap. Links to SafeStrap are in the OPs for the two ROMs. SafeStrap will tell you how to root, I used TowelRoot two months ago.
If flashing the ROM you choose does not fix the APNs then you may need to reflash the modem that corresponds to your bootloader version. If you are uncertain about the versions of your bootloader and modem you can check with a PlayStore app, Phone Info *Samsung* by vndnguyen. Another option for checking is these commands in a Terminal Emulator:
Code:
getprop ro.bootloader
getprop | grep version.baseband
thnk's men , but now i have another , before i don't know , so i installed rom manager and CWM recovery , now when i boot in recovery i get this
secure fail : kernel
system software not authorized by verizon wireless
i can't fix , i can't enter in recovery :/

That was the point of my other post.
You said you were on 4.4.2. If you have the 4.4.2 bootloader (I535VRUDNE1), you can not flash any AOSP or CM based ROM. Your only option in this case would be to install Safestrap and then one of the two ROMs which I linked. You can not downgrade this bootloader without bricking the phone. If must use one of these ROMs to get a custom ROM, you could flash SuperLiteROM and use XPosed and it's mods to tweak your device.
There is the possibility that your phone has an earlier bootloader and a 4.4.x custom ROM, this would let you flash CM or AOSP. I posted two ways to check your bootloader version. I recommend you do one of these before trying to flash anything else to avoid bricking the phone. If you have the NE1 bootloader look back to my previous post.
Hey, guys i think i just bricked my phone I was trying to install OTA update, but i forgot that my /system was modified and i am with custom recovery. Now when i turn on the phone, no matter with SD card or not, it loads up the custom carlwin recovery and gives me error installing package. Cannot boot to android at all. What should i do now ? I need help very fast, this phone is my daily driver i cant go without it now.
Edit: Also to mention i dont have root access, removed root because the update.
I think i cant do nothing right now really.

I repaired it a while ago, used SP Flash Tool to flash stock firmware. I am with a new phone now, not using the huawei anymore.
Hi,
I have a Sprint LG-Gflex2 (LS996) which is rooted. But this is my first time with a non-international variant of a phone.
I have fare share of experience with rooting and custom roms on devices : nexus one, nexus 7,Galaxy S2, Galaxy S3,HTC One X, Note 2(n7100). All were international variants.
This time around i have a non-international variant of a phone. It is unlocked and rooted running international GSM sim.
Some of these questions may sound like noob questions . But i don't want an expensive paperweight
Not much help is there for LS996 or even international Gflex 2.
If you have any experience with non-international variant, please provide input:good:
My concern is :
Does it cause any problem when installing a custom recovery on these devices? or is it same as on an international variant?
Is there any additional step required with such devices to be able to run a custom recovery and rom?
If in case i have to move back to stock recovery, will it lock the device again for international GSM?
If everything works and i am able to install a custom rom, does that mean the GSM sim will continue to work on that rom without any issues?
The ROM manager app does not list this device but still i can install 2.x or 3.x version of CWM. But does doing that from ROM manager is safe? What to do if it goes into bootloop?

There is no way to get unlock bootloader on G Flex 2, so you can't install any custom recovery or custom ROM :crying:
if your device goes into bootloop, you can try to flash kdz or tot file of stock ROM...
