I see custom roms for different model numbers of this phone.. Would these roms also work for my metro g530T?
Anyone?
I'm pretty sure the metro version is G530T1 right? Because I have the t-mobile variant which is G530T
Damn, it actually is, all of that aside though. Too many key differences for this device to use said existing roms?
samsung galaxy grand prime
im looking for roms for my device that will work for this what do your have for the samsung-SM-G530A

Hello
I have an opportunity to purchase a Galaxy S5 LTE-A. I have been considering it but was wondering if I can root it and then put custom ROMS on it. The device comes unlocked from factory but don't know if the bootloader is unlocked as well.
I know that most of the ROMS here are for the standard Galaxy S5 and the internals for the "Prime" are a bit different.
Would custom ROMS work with the "Prime?"
I also want to know the same. The problem is that not many will be have the phone to test so we will probably not get an answer to his.
Yea. Also I'm wondering if Nova launcher prime works and if zooper widget works with 4.4 kit Kat
yes to all of those questions.
What is the difference between the Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900M vs Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F? Im curious as to what makes these devices so different that one rom can't run on both of the devices. On the HTC One forums once you have a GSM based HTC One (Not dual sim) you can pretty much load any of the ROMs on your phone.(Tmobile,A&T,International) but here samsung has so many difference types.
I think you can install 900F ROMs on 900M .. you might just have some problems with phone funtionality but since 900F has GSM, it should work on 900M ..
You can always try by your self as long as you have a nandroid backup
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Metro Pcs (sm-g900t1) and i cant seem to find any custom roms that support this model , i heard from somewhere on this site that i can use the Tmobile custom roms (sm-g900t) since my phone is just rebranded , well i wanted to know if that was true. can i just do that ? or do i need to flash the firmware and change it to sm-g900t ? any help will be thankful.
As long as g900t1 and g900t have the same hardware internally, you should be good with using g900t ROMs
I am considering purchasing a Galaxy Grand Prime and the most likely model that I would purchase would be the SM-G530p or SM-G530t. While doing my research on this platform before purchasing I cannot help but notice that the majority of development and ROM releases overwhelmingly support the SM-G530h or SM-G531h.
What exactly is required to get an "H" ROM working on a "T" or "P" model? I am not exactly a noob when it comes to building android ROMs (I am a dev on androidforums.com and very active on freaktab) so your reply doesn't have to be too dumbed down. I am just unfamiliar with this platform. I have a sprint galaxy s4 (SPH-L720), however it seems like the ROM support is better for the various S4 than the various Grand Primes and this hasn't been an issue so far with my s4.
Would it not be possible to take any Grand Prime ROM (ex: an S7 ROM based on 5.1.1 ported for G530H), replace the kernel and supporting files with the 5.1.1 kernel including root for the G530P, flash it to the device, and have a functional ROM?
In general when flashing a custom ROM we won't be flashing the modem or radio partitions, correct? So as long as the android userland version matches the android version that the kernel is built for, and that kernel supports the installed baseband/radio/modem then won't this result in a functioning ROM?
Please let me know if I am incorrect, and if so where is the flaw in my logic!
Cheers and Thanks!!!
thats what i want to know also we need to gather a team and work on the G530P
too many persons buying this phone and being unable to use it globally there must be a way to change the modem or baseband to enable gsm or global features as the other variants of the grand prime series g530/t/h/t1 and others....there must be a way to somehow extract data from each and compile a greate baseband for the g530 to enable call and sms features and ussd features as well cause im sure the g530p is no different from g530t or the other variants in this series as they all have the same msm8916 qualcomm modem but the features are either locked to cdma or gsm/umts
CODERS OUT THERE PLEASE HELP WE NEED YOU!!!!
SUPERCODERS WE NEED YOU ASAP PLEASE HERE US OUT:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Unfortunately, I think, you can't do anything.
You can't install an 530H or 531H ok 530T
To make a 530h ROM fonction on any other model is insanely hard.
I've tried it personally, and everytime I failed.
Hello,
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and although I definitely should've checked the model number I did not. My mistake. But I've come to realize that the phone is a Korean variant and as such I can't modify it and put custom ROMs on it - if you can, I'm not sure how.
I'm a novice on smartphones and putting custom ROMs on them, I've done it before on a Note 3 that I owned (Canadian variant).
Since there aren't any custom ROMs (that I can find) for the Korean variant... Is it possible I can somehow convert the phone to an international variant or perhaps force the process?
Thanks in advance.

Try this ROM...

I have an n910s too...
Tried almost all ROMS and this is the best one.
Good luck.
If you find a way to convert to international version please let me know how to.
Thanks.
Thank for the input but I'm going to be returning the phone and getting an international or Canadian variant, as I would like to use LineageOS on it or something similar. I don't want any ROMs that look or feel like TouchWiz.
