It seems like all the latest roms for the 10.1 are all for p51xx models, if i have the att model (i497) is it possible to flash the new CM?
No you can't. Unfortunately except for a deodexed stock version there are no ROMs available for the I497. The devs just don't seem to be supporting it.

The AOSP and cyanogen Roms which are available all of them have camera issues and other bugs. Why is it so?
Is it impossible to run AOSP on s4 i9500? If yes, then why so?
Is it because developers are slacking and just dont want to make a AOSP custom rom for s4 i9500 or there is something which limits developer from making AOSP avialable for s4 i9500. maybe samsung hasnt given tools or drivers to developers.
All the custom roms available for s4 i9500 . They all have written at the end of the thread that The rom is based on Stock firmware.
What is a firmware? Isnt it same as kernel?
Yeah I know I am total noob.

Don't panic, I can see ROMs based on AOSP here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop
I have personally never seen a i9500 so I beleive they are just not that common or shipped to countries where there is a lack of devs. How about cooking your own? I've started to develop my own ROM which I'm using right now.
Firmware is a full system
The kernel also partly firmware
The kernel is the core of android
If no kernel will not boot
Note: sorry if i am wrong
I9500 has an exynos chipset which had been looked down by Samsung. This has been the case since the Galaxy S2. AOSP Roms exist for the i9500 but they won't be the most stable things you will try, so you are better off staying with the original software or a rom based on the original software.

Developing your own ROM is cool thing. That's what I will be doing after my next month exams.. I dont actually own a s4 i9500 but my cousin has it. I have xolo a500s. It's pretty looking device. I would like to port 4.4 kitkat AOSP rom on it.. :victory:

Thanks for replying. I think you are right. Firmware = rom + kernel.

Yeah that's it. Samsung doesn't share the full source code of it's exynos chip. half of the sourcecode is closed source. They just don't give the full source code to the developers. That's why developers fail to make custom kernels and roms.
But now I wonder why do samsung do this? Maybe they dont want other phone makers to know their unique performance tweaks which they have put in sourcecode.
Lesson learnt never buy Exynos powered device. Always try to get snapdragon powered device.
I read somewhere that i9505 roms work on the SGH-M919.... can anyone confirm this for me. if yes, can I have my pick of the litter of i9505 roms?
thanks.
AOSP or Cyanogenmod ROMs should work fine with the M919. Touchwiz ROMs will not work due to T-Mobile not providing an Android 5.x ROM for their Galaxy S4. The T-Mobile baseband doesn't work properly with the Android 5.x Touchwiz ROMs. The version 5.0.1 Google Play Edition ROM should also work fine on the M919, though the 5.1 version won't work due to the same baseband issue affecting the Touchwiz ROMs.

Thanks for the info - I've downloaded many I9505 ROMs for my M919 and they didn't work even though other members to!d me they would.
the Albe s6 port rom is TW 5.1.1 based and it will work for the m919 only if you use v3.5
The question says it all. I'm kinda bored with stock now, and for me there aren't any ported ROMs that is worth using. Searched around but couldn't find a single AOSP ROM that is available for the Korean model (which sucks). So, if anyone here has come across an AOSP ROM compatible with the Korean model, please let me know. Thanks.
Went to Costco and picked one up fairly cheap. Not going to be heartbroken if no custom ROMs but would -like- a more AOSP experience as I've never particularly liked Samsungness.
I looked around a good bit but not having any luck beyond rooting existing ROM and debloated stock ROMs. Are there any unofficial LineageOS or other 3rd party ROMs that support the SM-T380? WiFi-only version so no modem support needed.
Bumping thread. I see there is a root option available but not any roms. Are any of the roms for other models compatible with the T380? Would love something clean with AOSP or no bloatware.
All of these roms are for the gt versions, any custom roms for the Verizon version? Lollipop is all I need.
