No unlocked bootloader. So no roms for this phone unless someone can find a work around. The s7 edge had 2 roms that used Flash fire but root was buggy.
jrkruse has made this.

Thanks for your response rippedwarrior69, Before posting my question I had read about (and I'm running it ATM) "jrkruse,s" post over in there Verizon forum about there rom, quoted below
I don't know much at all about making a Rom but Since i posted this question I've been reading how to DeOdex and am slowly learning, but i am total noob and don't have the confidence in my self, it would take to post my work for others yo know.

These UFirm Carrier Roms are so big I chose to use the flash system.img.ext4 first method in Flashfire followed by a partial rom zip so I could get all the multicarrier stuff to fit. This way also insures that all symlinks and permissions are correct.

I would love to see custom roms for at&t note 8. Aosp would be cool or a super customizable stock Rom. Android 8.0 or 8.1 would be cool to.

Yes I have looked everywhere. I got my phone and after the security update. Well it's rooted wooh! But no unlocked bootloader and honestly not looking like it/kinda nor do I want to unlock it. So does anyone have any safestrap ROMS I could look at? I really like PAC-man but does not load... so yeah any suggestions? Even cm10.1 or cm10.2

You'll need to use SafeStrap to run a ROM. With that being said, you're going to run into very few ROMs that are SS compatible. CM10.1 supposedly is comptible with SS, but I haven't found proof of that anywhere. 10.2 won't work with SS. There is a way to make ROMs work with SS, but I haven't seen anyone do it yet, atleast they haven't posted it anyway. There are a couple of stock based ROMs that have been posted lately that are reported to boot on SS. For others, you'll need to search for ROMs that were built prior to our bootloader being unlocked in April. However, if you run one of these versions, know that they are based off of 4.1.1 or the previous 4.1.2 and you might run into kernel issues.
Thank you
Thank you for the information. I'm hoping at some point there is a way to make a ROM SS compatible. Anyways if you run across any please if you wouldn't mind sending me the link to any of the SS roms you find. I'm sorry i've looked all day just haven't seemed to have found one sadly... And i'm primarily looking for 4.2+. Thanks in advance!

I can almost guarantee you won't find 4.2 or 4.3. Supposedly, to get ROM to boot on SS, it's just as simple as unpacking it and removing the boot.img then re-packing it, but I'm not really sure. For current comptible ROMs, you'll have to dig around on here and Droidrzr.com.
hey ive got a mf3 s4 that i have rooted but have not yet put any roms on. ive read about as much as i can on here about roms and such. i know that i have to flash the mf3 zip after i flash the rom in safestrap on rom slot 1 and never to touch the stock rom slot. i just need some imput of which rom to use, they all sound great. so if u have used the roms could u give me some ideas of which to use. i like shostock but there are 3 versions and im still not sure which one to use, and gravitiron is also a posibilty. ive read where the WIFI sometimes wont work after flashing and that there is something u have to flash to get it to working. so if it doesent work and i go back to stock will the WIFI start working again.. sorry for the long post,.
Everyone has their own flavor here. What may be good for one may be utter crap to another. We all took roms out for a test drive till we found the one we were most comfortable with. Unfortunately no one will hold you hand on here and asking for what rom is best for you is frowned upon here. Thats why we never compare roms to one another.
As I said you have to take a few out for a test run and see which you like best. There all AWESOME in my opinion. Go to each rom and read the last few post and you will get an idea as to what issues people are running into is all I can advise. Plenty of reading ahead of you, we all did it.
Enjoy the learning.

I'm suprised you havent heard of this yet. Go to the general section (I think), you'll find a safe strap discussion Q&A thread. Read up and ask questions before you jump in and flash a wrong ROM or something.

well, I did hear the Safestrap before. But I didn't know it can help the MF3 to flash the custom rom. Good to know that.

okay, thanks for the video.
help me understand this. So this is like you got 2 roms in your phone at the same time. and we can flash the custom rom in slot1 2 3. and keep the stock rom right in the phone. that means we can always switch from the original stock rom and the custom rom that we install at slot 1. is that right??
As stated members are expected to do the research and decide for themself which ROM to try. The only thing you will get with a thread like this is what everyone's favorite ROM is and those threads are not allowed on XDA. Please read thoroughly all the ROM threads you are interested in before drastically altering your $700 device.
Thank you for your cooperation

Hey guys converter from iPhone over here. Last time I rooted it was fairly straightforward and was able to get going quickly. This newer stuff is a little new to me.
I rooted my sprint s5 using towel root. Now what? I see roms like omega but none really say anything about the sprint model.
What should i do next to install a boottloader then a rom?
Thanks

Assuming you are a new XDA user. Welcome to the forum and be sure to read over the forum rules. They might save you some headache in the future. For example, this post should of been in the Q&A section but no biggie. A mod will move it if need be.
Anyways, about your question, this is the Sprint specific forum so all the roms here should be compatible with the Sprint S5 (900P). Some of the roms will be based off of Touchwiz (these will keep almost 100% of stock functionality while adding some extras) and AOSP roms (custom based on CM, MIUI, etc.) The first post of each rom thread will give you a good idea of what the rom has included, instructions to flash, what works and doesn't, and so on.
If you just rooted get a custom recovery on there and do a backup of the system and EFS first thing. As for bootloader, that is preference and may depend on what rom you flash but I would think you will be fine with what version you have now.
This is also a good thread to take a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52456762&postcount=1
I just got my s5 out from storage. I want to get it to a Android 5 ROM. It is running RWilico ROM and is Rooted with the LAtest TWRP recovery. 3.1
Where is a link to the ROMS available for the s% I had a page bookmarked, but it says the link is no longer available.
Thanks everyone for the replies

if the link is not there anymore then the rom was deleted due to various reasons. Your best bet is to try a different rom then

this is kind of a dead/dying forum, so please dont be so edgy when a reply isnt quick or even happens at all. Makes those of us who still hang around less likely to help. Heres rwilcos sprint s5 repository and you should be able to backwards engineer for any of his other repos

Hi guys
I'm looking to update the firmware on this old tablet as it's a bit out of date and a bit sluggish it's been a long time since I've rooted or flashed anything android. I own a Linux satellite receiver and have flashed firmware images bootloader etc so hoping this will help me. I'm basically looking for a guide from start to finish to bring this tablet a bit more up to date, hope somebody can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

Check if these 2 ROMs are enough stable for you: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...11-cm-14-1-based-android-4-4-4-7-1-2.3648887/
Thanks matteo I think I'd like to try your build I've read quite a few of your post and you seem to know quite a lot about these tablets all I need to know now is what to download and how to flash it
Thanks

What to download is in the thread (rom, gapps and twrp), and you can find instructions all over the internet. I've wrote something in my thread of lineage 16 and twrp on how to install them (lineage 16 has the same instructions as the other ROMs I've linked you) too. What I advice you is to understand well what you have to do before doing everything. Otherwise, it can happen that you'll come back and say: "device doesn't boot anymore, what to do now?"
Yes I'm trying to gather as much information as I can so as to avoid any problems when I actually try to do the flash process. I will read up some more.
Thanks again

Hey Matteo- do you think this ROM is still the best option for those of us with a SM-T230 / DEGAS ? There isn't a proper LineageOS build is there? Appreciate the knowledge, thank you.

Yes. There's a LOS16 for T235, but not for T230.

Hi, I will ask maybe stupid question, since knowledge is 0 in terms of android, but is there a possibility to upload some ROM with android 9.0 to T230? (I even do not know if I haven't made mistake in question )
Anyway I need 9.0 for app and already rooted device following step by step instruction.
Thx in advance

No, since there aren't any devs with enough interest/knowledge to make them.
Hi there. I have found an old SM-T230. I need to install some apps, which require at least Android 7. Will the above Custom ROMS work in that way, that i can install apps build for Android 7 or higher? I fear, i have to find some GApps but thats a other story... if someone can assist to find the right ROM and GApps, this would be nice...
