can some body tell me how i can install custom rom on my galaxy tab from bell? i have rooted my galaxy tab but when i downloaded the rom manager, it doesnt have the correct flash for recovery, can some body help out please?
Please search first.
Having said that, are there any custom ROMS available for your specific Tab? Have you looked around the development fora?

there are some custom roms for the tab, im having problem flashing cmw mod thats all, it doesnt have the galaxy tab bell version under the flash choices
CWM is not the only way to flash roms. There's also heimdall. Which Tab specifically do you have? A model number would help.
model#:gt-p1000m
You should be able to flash any gsm rom, other bell users might be able to verify, using ODIN, Heimdall or cwm. !st thing I'd do is read up on ODIN ver.1.7. Then read up on Heimdall. The more ways to flash you know the better chance, if something goes awry, you can fix it.
Being a gt-p1000 variant means you are a gsm tablet. Only flash gsm roms, wifi only and cdma roms WILL brick your tab.
Also be a good Idea to check you don't have locked bootloaders.. Check here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071 . look for bootloader patch.apk
Will check if bootloaders are locked and ask if you want to unlock or will say bootloaders are good to go.
Find the rom you want to install, read up on how to install - each chef generally has instructions.
Have fun....
Go to the overcome thread, doesn't matter which one for a tutorial on how to flash using ODIN, it has pictures for those that like visual stuff...

Please at least take 5 minutes to go read some threads instead of just jumping in and assuming you can just install CWM and be ready.
can any one help me out...i am looking looking after how to install cmw recovery on my Samsung Galaxy Grand 2(SM-G7102)...?
Recovery hasnt been developed for our phone. Just sit tight and wait

Hi, new here on this forum my wife bought my daughter a tab 4, itsversiin is 4.4.2 i wanted to root it but when i check the forum theres no SM-T231 on the roms available. I have a note 3 under omega 25.1 LP. Can anyone help me wih my daughters tab and suggest a good rom. Alsonif a root my daughters tab can she use "whatsapp"? Thanking you guys in advance.
There are almost no roms for T23X because it's not a very popular device and has even lesser-known SoC (Marvell PXA1088).
You can still root the device using odin to flash recovery and then SuperSU zip in the recovery. (Link to the recovery: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=28382 )
Root does not break whatsapp.

Dnt flash Amy other ROMs on cm ROMs. Make backup of working ROMs. Flash stock firmware for now and make cwm backup if it.
People, I've searching in web and I found out that a new version of Galaxy Grand Prime have been released, but this new one has Android Lollipop. Mobile spects are the same in both, except for the OS.
This mean that the ones that have G530~ version aren't getting Lollipop?
There is a video on Youtube of an unboxing, you can check it out
Good Luck!

OP seems to be referring to the above link. It appears Sprint is roling out the same device with lollipop for some $60-100 more than we paid Cricket to get it with KK during the initial release.

cpu 1.3
Android 5.1.1

Hi, I was ready to install CWM Recovery on my Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G531H phone which I guess it is running Lollipop but I started reading about Lollipop.
Now I have a question. What is the problem if my phone is running Lollipop? I don't understand if could be a problem if I want to install CWM and then rooting it.
Are you so kind to tell me about this?
Can I use the same CWM files that is made for Prime SM-G530H?
Can I use the same files made for Prime SM-G530H if I want to root it? Or where I can get these file?
Of course all of these question don't need to be answered. I just need to figure it out what I need to do.
Thanks.

Dont know about CWM recovery..BUT..I'm sure..TWRP recovery and Root exploit must match to OS version..the files are not interchangable between OS versions..unless it just happens to work out that way in development..but that'd probably be a RARE case..
I ALWAYS update..AFTER know good TWRP and Root has been developed for the next update..before I step to the next OS version..
But..like my device here..came from the box with 5.1.1 THEN one is stuck with no TWRP or Root..at the mercy of development..
You may try to revert..to the OS..when all your files were compatable..and wait it out for the next development..
