I'm coming from a Nexus 4 phone which was super easy for me to mess with.
I will get my hands on a Moto X Style XT1572 Dual SIM version in a few days.
I already found a lot of tutorials on rooting, TWRPing, this kind of stuff... but they seem pretty outdated. Some root threads are from back October or Dec'15. There's no way that Super SU is still experimental on Marshmallow..
I found the process to unlock the bootloader easy so it won't be a problem, but I can't find anything updated on the hax stuff. Is there anyone to point out good threads.. I will probably be satisfied with the stock ROM. I read that a systrmless is better, but that ivcarlos thread looks pretty outdated.
Edit: Custom ROMs are a plus, so flashing TWRP might be obligatory anyway.. What are the best options on that..
Phone will probably arrive with Marshmallow, so any advices from this version will be very welcomed
Thanks in advance.
Just read through q&a. All your Q's have been answered.

Hey guys i have come from the Galaxy ace forums and my friend wants to upgrade his SGS which i agreed to do
He's on stock right now and wants to experience CM and root
I searched a lot and did not get a full proof guide for complete upgrading from stock
can anyone please guide me
And after searching the development section i concluded to flash Slim beans...it looks promising and stable
Please help me how to upgrade to slim beans from stock
thank you
Dont be lazy & read the forums. There where many before u. Even I did it once (to be exact just two weeks ago) just by searching & reading on xda & google. The thing is if u come across problems before/during/after process most times it happened to someone already & solutions are already there. So no excuses, search harder. I found alot that helped me flashing from stock for the first time (I didnt even know what rooting, kernel, odin etc. was couple of weeks ago). Its a little effort on your side. It seems you know more than when I was starting coming from the ace forums so imo The last option should be starting a new thread, especially for this specific question. Nevertheless here is a start
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
I'm quite accustomed with all the words and everything
I myself flash at least 2 roms per week on my SGA
But for SGS I don't know how to go about
And I searched but there is no full proof guide which includes everything hence the starting of this thread
Baseband version of his phone is

(So pretty much all Stock Everything)
Experience: Baby/Noob
I have not rooted an android for about 2 years(And that was for my galaxy s2) and a lot has changed! I used to know a good amount but getting on this website instantly overwhelmed me. SOOO getting to my question
1.) What is the best rom that you have flashed?
-Doing a search I found the [MOAR] Rom but it was posted last January(and updated 08/27/2015) So it seems it would be out dated right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...om-v5-0-mod-control-floating-windows-t3016692
-Also found this one from CARBON Rom but it seems to have a problem playing media well over bluetooth(which I use constantly so that may be a problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/development/rom-carbonrom-kltespr-t3225270
- Found this one by rwilco12 it seems to be pretty much like stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...m-sm-g900p-og1-stock-rooted-deodexed-t3226240
2.) Do you have any advice for searching and finding new mods on this site? (There is just sooo much stuff)
Thanks for any help!!!
Your Biggest Fan,

So I have an answer to my second question and I guess the best way is to go to the development section of your phone company.
For Sprint: http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/development
Kinda obvious but honestly for someone as dyslexic and ADHD as me I get on here and am looking for something in big bold letters with everything I am thinking at that moment. Whenever I don't see that my brain explodes and causes me to have a tiny seizure. I am all better now.
Still curious about my first question. What is the best Rom for Sprint SM-G900P in your opinion?

I'm fairly new to all of this myself, but I can only suggest flashing the rom version from Resurrection Remix group. I've had this rom on my previous device (I9300), and since I loved it so much, I decided to continue on my latest device upgrade - the SM-G900F Just follow this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-resurrection-remix-5-3-4-t3033255

Thanks for the answer man! Will this version only work for the SM-G900F or will it also work for the SM G900P?
This is my plan for now
1.) Do the CF auto root. (that way I can download titanium backup to backup all of my stuff)
2.) Format phone
3.)Then re-root with either your suggestion or the MOAR root.
Any more suggestions?
Does anyone have any more suggestions about which root I should use
or comments about my plan of action in my previous post?
Hello all, thnx for reading this. Im IceQube and im a life long Iphone user since the very first one. But if left that part if me behind and choose for the Huawei p10 plus. Its an amazing phone. But i do have some questions because im a total android noob.
I read allot about rooting and different kernels. And the way i read it, it sounded pretty much the same as "jailbreaking" an IOS device. Can someone help me get into this rooting and get more out of my amazing huawei smartphone.
Thank you very much, IceQube.

At this moment in time there isn't any official ways to root the p10 plus.
Basically most, if not every phones are rooted in this order
Unlock the bootloader which allows you to install custom recoveries. ( Voids the warranty in most places )
After unlocking you can then flash a recovery, ( needed in order to flash ROMs, .Zips )
After flashing the custom recovery, you can easily flash root and ROMs. It sounds complicated but it's about a 10 minutes job but since your new i advise you wait for official methods because if you brick your phone, there's no way of recovering. Erecovery on the device never worked for me. I had to pay for it to be fixed. Check out www.funkyhuawei.club if it ever happens.
I can help you unlock your phone and install the recovery and current unofficial root method however you won't be able to mount /system which is pretty much pointless.

@XtraArrow did a good explanation above. In short....don't bother rooting just yet. Just use the phone as it is for now until such time you see the development thread grow with custom ROM's

Hello,
I recently updated to B360 Nougat and rooted with revolution recovery and elite kernel. But I do not like the battery life on it. I wish to roll back to latest MM without losing root or at least without losing DATA and APPS. is that possible? I want to use xposed but I didn't realise it does not work on Android 7.0 yet.
Any help would be appreciated as I searched in the forums and by far this is the messiest forum I've ever seen lol duplicate posts some with answers some without! Guides without mentioning its for MM or N. I don't mean to criticise but back when I used Sony their forums are much more detail specific.
Anyway sorry if I offended anyone I did not mean so I just wanted to state out that I'm confused. and thank for whoever helps
Fixed it following several debranding methods.
Hate to create another thread but looking for info. The 50 different models are a little overwhelming and trying not to brick my new device.
It's updated to 7.0. I found the thread for tester with 5.0 roms and didn't know if it still worked. Looking to install lineage and possible car install.
Any links would help. I've been reading but just triple checking. Lte is not important to me if I have to lose it.
Thanks in advance.
