Hello there,
My new Samsung Galaxy S5 [SM-G900L] just came in.
It wanted to install custom recovery from TWRP so I could make a backup of my Stock Rom and afterwards could install custom Roms, but there doesn't seem to be any support for the G900L.
I'm quite new here, but is it possible someone can help me with this? So that TWRP will aslo provide support to the G900L.
I'm willing to sent al the necessary files. But you'll have to gide me trough it.
Thanks in advance.
Anybody??
Good luck.. i tried looking for anything related to the 900L model but there's barely any support on it.

Thanks, but yeah, that is why I opened this thread. Because I couldn't find anything about my G900L either
And because I'm new I can't post anything in the development section T.T
I hope someone picks this up though.
Yup I fell ya
/Bump for support
SM 900L Support
Another one for 900L support. Got the phone rooted no problem but failed to install CWM or TWRP yesterday so no custom recoveries available . Got a boot loop for my efforts. Hope there is enough love out there for someone to tweak some of the packages for these phones.
Cheers.
Successfully installed TWRP and CyanogeMmod recoveries on my SM-G900L
Sorry for the very long delay. I only got this mobile last month. I am able to install TWRP recovery by using TWRP manager after rooting (Although his device is not supported officially, the recovery image for the international version (SM-G900F) works really fine. I also successfully flash CyanogenMod (both View attachment Snapshot_recovery.tar and View attachment Nigthy_recovery.tar) recovery images using odin.

I have tried many times to use TWRP recovery on G900Lmodel but with no success.
I always end up with "COULD NOT DO NORMAL BOOT".
Also I need one help, I was trying to use this Custom ROM "Insanity S7 edge port", I again get the same message " COULD NOT DO NORMAL BOOT".
Someone told me it's the kernel problem and i have to flash stock kernel after flashing ROM zip. But the thing is I don't have the stock kernel.
Please help.

TWRP for kltelget (SM-G900L) is available here. You can also use the TWRP for klte (SM-G900F). The details are available in my xda thread (latest version is not tested). You can boot most Phoenix kernel (I hope Insanity too) based ROMs by either flashing the stock ROM boot.img or a custom boot.img sited in my another xda thread located here (check second post).

Thank you sunil
I tried the recoveries that you are suggesting, both of them, klte and klteskt from the twrp site.
It seems to work on every other device but mine.
Can't figure what I am doing wrong.

yes i will try them, I hope they work on latest MM.
And yes the device is rooted properly with latest CFautoroot for G900L, I even checked it with Root Checker basic.
Anyways, I don't have any special liking for TWRP, I wanted it to flash stock boot.img to make the Insanity ROM work.
I am ok with CWM recovery, but I was told it could not flash .img file and I am not equipped to make my own flashable zip form boot.img.
But now I am planning to use your modded boot.img for Phoneix based MM custom ROMs. I hope that will work.
Btw thank you so much...I checked both of your threads...They are awesome....you seem to be lone warrior for these Korean variants. Not much support elsewhere.
Really appreciate your efforts!!!!
Keep up the good work.

Finally..
Thank you so much!!!
Also I tried your kernel with Insanity ROM and it works perfect.!!!
Thank you once again.
I've gone searching many threads in this section of XDA. search all possible compatible ROM's and Recovery.
Is there a working Recovery for Samsung Note 3 N900l 5.0?
Is there a working ROM for N900l? i searched and saw Darklord S6 is compatible.
but i want to try a CM12 ROM from Temasek.
and what is KNOX? 0x0? 1x0?
My previous Smartphone(LG-D838) has a poor a android development.
Every reply would be very much appreciated!!
Thank you

"My previous Smartphone(LG-D838) has a poor a android development"... and the NEW one too
For recovery, you can use the hlteskt/n900s version, which is compatible.
Unfortunately, there are no custom ROMs for your variant,
yeah, most likely i have this really BEST luck with me for smartphones that i really do need to suffer.
Darklord S6 ROM was compatible to my phone, but the CM12 has no reply if compatible with my model.
is there a way for me to use CM 12 since my previous phone also has no update for CM12

If you use CM, or any AOSP-based ROM, you won't be able to do voice calls or text messages. That's because of how the LGU+ network is set up in Korea, and your variant is built specifically for that network.

I don't know about Darklord, but I doubt it will work. Make sure you have a backup and stock ROM ready, if you do try it, though.

what is bootloader anyway?
i installed CF autoroot and installed CWM n900s version using flashify.
i cant go on recovery at first using vol up +home+power then i use flashify reboot on recovery then it went bootloop.
after that i installed again the cwm n900s version kk via odin3 and it went ok but the system.ui crashed when i turn on my device.
i go to cwm recovery and wipe cache hoping to fix the problem then the system.process(i think) not responding and displaying black only.
i really want to fix the phone without wiping or factory resetting but panic comes first to me.
now it is ok.
Thanks, just sharing my really scary exp. its my first bootloop.
Guys I have a G928C model which just received an OTA update of some 150MB. I can confirm that it is a fresh update which came today.
After updating I tried flashing custom recovery following the method mentioned on [HOW TO] Rooting Flashing Custom Recovery & Kernal thread. Odin fails to flash recovery, stock recovery remains. Other two images are of me trying to flash the older stock rom which gives another strange error.
Please help me out.
Did you enable the option oem unlock in developers options?
OEM unlock and usb debugging were on
MD5 of the files were ok? I assume you have the kernel/recovery specifically for your device.
No issues with MD5, kernel or recovery. Was running the device with custom recovery,kernel and root before i went back to stock and updated it OTA.
It is mentioned a few times that J5 is NOT downgradeable, so no chance to go back to you old rom!
and, if i remember right, it also has been mentioned that J5 blocks custom recovery! search in the general section!

I have installed resurrection mod on my phone, this part is working at the moment.
I followed a tutorial to install it using twrp, however everytime i tried to launch it i would get a pixilated yellow screen and the phone would freeze on the android logo.
I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/how-to/6-0-1-5-1-1-bootloader-modem-j500xx-t3566801
Now the phone loads into resurrection fine, however when i try to go into recovery mode the phone has black and white noise at the top like an old TV and it freezes.
I have tried installing TWRP again with no luck.
What should i try now?

I also used their BL and Modem, but it didn't work for me either. So when they ask you (in ROM Threads) to have 5.1.1 or 6.0.1, you'd better flash the whole firmware.
do you have a guide on how to do that?

Your problem has solution, but you should give us proper and more detailed info about your issue, which RR rom you were using or people must guess it? Which the latest ROM you flashed? Are you with official TWRP?
C'mon make an effort and tell your specs correctly so any member could guide you.

If you are with marshmallow bootloader you can flash Vince sources based ROMs. Validus by tioguda, Lineage by Vince, RR unofficial by Has.
If you want AOSPExt, Viper, RR official, you must downgrade to lollipop as stated by user above??, as these ROMs are Dyneteve's sources based ROMs which boot only with lollipop bootloader.

Ok still doing the yellow screen thing, but now have a new error.
Kernel is not seandroid enforcing
OOOOMMMMGGGGG. Someone to help me now?
I went thru every single thread, i have the latest TWRP 3.2.1, so no Error 7.
The ROM's install (i've tried Unofficial/RR/PixelExperience/BootLeggers/Cosmic/AOSIP) and the install goes smooth, but all stuck on Bootloop!
What on earth am I doing wrong? I can't find anyone mentioning specific Kernel or where to get an OREO specific Kernel.
Is there a Boot.img ? do i need to flash it as well? (no one says so in instructions)
The last rom i've got is the Official 7.1.2 which boots without a problem.
Note: But only the 20171025 build, nothing after that even of 7.1.2 doesn't boot (just has bootloop)
Device Specs as Appear on the back: YU4711, H/W ver V2.0, S/W ver: V0.0.9_171215, (2+8) GB
Have you updated the modem from cyanogen 14.0 then try again.
BTW you should made in discussion.
Flash your Phone with stock ROM
YU_YU4711_SW_V0.0.9_HW_V1.0_171215_2016012715.zip .

It have some other files also including android 5... So flash this
And then flash twrp
Reflash the entire stock firmware *except system, userdata, recovery, cache* through fastboot, then you should be good to go.

I honestly don't see the logic in putting the phone back into Stock ROM of Android 5.1.1, when I can use it with 7.1.2 without a problem and only flashing of new ROM's is an issue.
But I have found something that may give more information, this is HW_V2 , so i'm assuming this device is the YU YUNIQUE 2 which is basically identical but with 2GB ram instead of 1GB ram.

You need to flash it using: fastboot flash modem non-hls.bin
Then reboot and flashing of the ROM should go correctly and for me atleast, it booted up.
