Custom roms for A3 - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hi there, I have noticed that the A5 and A7 variants have gotten quite a bit of development in terms of custom ROMs. Also, both seem to be going to get the Marshmallow update. I would like to ask if anyone can get me up to speed in terms of the development on this phone? Thanks in advance.

There doesn't seem to be anyone interested in developing ROMs for this phone. Unfortunately, I posses no knowledge of making ROMs, otherwise, I would certainly made attempts by now.
I am willing to help as much as I can if anyone wants to develop any ROM for the device.
Custom ROMs should still be developed even if our device doesn't get Marshmallow. 5.0.2 AOSP is great and much better than touchwiz. If ROMs can be made for A5, I don't see why should there be problems with A3?
Maybe we can start off by porting an A5 aosp ROM into A3.

A3 is getting 6.0" but some custom roms would be nice support seems scares shame really . Anyone no if cf-auto root works 5.0.2 yet all seem to point 4.4.4

If you want to make an A3 build, you can use A5 Device Tree but you will need to adapt it, screen resolution, RAM, kernel, and blobs are different than A5's ones.
Maybe I can build CM or AOSP for A3, but I don't have the device and testers for it.

If you need proprietary files for A3 tell me, thanks!

Or if you can explain to me how to build from source I can try myself, I have BuilduntuVM installed on my VirtualBox, so it's ready to compile.

A7 isn't getting a custom ROM also. (SS-A700F that is) There is no Device tree. Otherwise i'd build something. But A3 is not alone on this unfortunately.

S5 Neo Cyanogenmod 13 Help

Until now, no CM was released for this device(S5 Neo [SM-G903F]), but.... looking at the similarities between this phone and the original S5, I was thinking about what could happen if I flash the CM13 S5 [SM-G900F] version on my S5 NEO device.
Would my device brick/enter in bootloop or something like this? has anyone ever tried it?
PS: anyone knows about someone who is porting the CM13 to this device, my thread is because I have no idea whether somebody is doing it or not.

Samsung s5 G900F not booting after MIUI 7 install

Hi everybody,
I am new to the forum and new also to modifying android phones. I have a G900F and I wanted to try a few custom ROMs. I first installed Lineage 14.1 and everything went pretty smooth. After I wanted to try the official S5 MIUI7 v6.5.27 which I downloaded from the MIUI website. I wiped everything I could and installed the zip file with TWRP. There was no progress bar but it seemed to perform tasks. When finished, I rebooted but the phone is stuck on the Samsung logo without any progress. I tried many times and I always had the same issue. Could you please help me out with this? What can I do to fix the install issue? My phone is now working (installed the Super Lite by Vincom) but I would like to give MIUI a try. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Miui 7 is based on android lollipop so you gotta flash lollipop bootloader and modem in order to get it working.
I would like to suggest you MIUI 8 by blackbuga, you can find the thread on Galaxy s5 development (snapdragon).
Sent from my SM-A720F using Tapatalk
Thanks! That was a quick reply!
I imagined that there was some issue of this kind. I was driven to v7 for its being an official release and stable. I saw that blackbuga's is beta and thought it was unstable. Well actually I wasn't relying on my skills, as I said I have been playing around with rom's for a week or so.
I'll give that a try

[help] [dev's] [galaxy e5|e7] rom galaxy e5 in e7 cm 13 works

the business is as follows DEV'S, I tested the ROM CM 13 of E5 on my GALAXY E7 (E700M) modifying the updater-script file and managed to make the ROM work seemingly, the problem is in the touch that does not work and the screen if I press the power button and it turns off, it does not turn on again the screen, the cellphone only makes normal noises and sounds with volume keys) without bootloop or anything, I tried to restore the original boot.img of the Galaxy E7 to see if it works the touch but then it was in bootloop! Do you think it would be possible to make it work? because it already works really! only not 100% hahahah

Best custom rom for LG G6?

Hello,
I want to install a custom rom on my G6 device. Which one is the best in your eyes? Could you also list the bugs, which you know please.
I've read several threads. They have too much pages and I think there is no custom rom with no bugs...?
Thanks for your help.

Currently using Resurrection Remix (though not the latest one) for the last 3 months.
Everything is fine except for these "bugs":
Microphone is s**t quality in calls.
Sometimes the device will freeze for a second or three after being unlocked.
5GHz hotspot is not working.
Otherwise, it's pretty good.
What about safety issues on custom roms?
Don't you have any fears that some backdoors are being added?
thx!
Most custom roms are opensource. Just look at the code yourself. If you want to be even more on the safe side, compile it yourself.

I recommend AOSPExtended, or Resurrection Remix (if you have h870) if you don't need voLTE, I'm stuck with Verizon and need voLTE in order to send/receive texts and calls, there is currently no way to get voLTE in AOSP roms (AFAIK), so I'm stuck with stock based ROMs, ended up just staying stock and waiting for voLTE fix & RR for US997 varient, as for NO bugs, doubt it, all custom ROMs have some issue (even if they are basically unnoticeable), I have yet to find one that has voLTE working on Oreo.
