galaxy note 4 s-lte(SM-N916L)

Does anyone know about this model? No one seems to know..
I have one problem. At the moment there are several ways to root galaxy note4, including philz recovery and cf auto root. However, as far as i know it works for only note4 model sm-n910 line. However in korea, upper model for n-910 is released, known as sm-n916 line. Both model have the same hardware and software specs, the only difference is their network connection specs. (N916 has faster and improved data lte connection) . Now the problem is that i have n916 model, and rooting for this device does not work with the method that can root n910 model. I thought it would work because everything software and hardware specs are the same. I am really frustrated because i cant root ㅜ.ㅜ
It's only been a month or twice since its release. The exact model is SM-N916L(LG U plus phone carrier. Alphabet that comes after 916 represents differet phone carriers. S is for skt, and K is for Kt, L is for Lg uplus). It is a upper model for SM-N910L galaxy note 4. You can see that SM-N910L model is present in autoroot([email protected]@eu) but not the upper model SM-N916L. Any ways i could help the developers to enable rooting for this device? perhaps finding you the stock firmware? Demand for this device than previous note4 n910 will increase. Really hope to root this device.
Could i get any help? (Btw i am living in korea using korean model). Really willing to donate if i could root this model!
hope i can get a reply as soon as possible. Have a good day~

The recoveries were never meant for Marshmallow since those devices were running Android Lollipop.
The Android Marshmallow update for those devices had come out much later on.

General link pooling (2.8.7.0 and 3.0.2.0) for the SLK N910_N915_N916, of which there are 2 types :
File zip => flash through recovery
File tar => flash via Odin (from flash recovery 2 times)

SM. G531H 5.1.1 Lollipop

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!
http://www.cnet.com/news/sprint-sells-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime/
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.
i have g531h that
s awsome greate
cpu 1.3
Android 5.1.1
Screen is good
the battery save in 100% work for 10 day no charge needed

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..

Problem rooting G710

Hey guys, can you help me? I'm having a big trouble with my Grand 2
(Sorry for my crappy English, Spanish is my first language, so I can't speak English very well)
Here's the problem: I recently got a Grand 2 G710 (Single SIM), it's a cool phone but I want to root it, install a Custom Recovery and flash it a custom ROM, but since I was looking for the files for my phone, I discovered something weird, the codename for the Single SIM variant is "ms013g" but in my phone appears as "ms013gss" and to be honest, I didn't try to root it because two reasons:
1) The CF flashable zip file is supposed to be used on a phone with KitKat firmware, but mine is on Jelly Bean and I can't update it because this is the latest update released by the carrier and when I try to update it via OTA, it says the latest update is installed.
2) I can't find a root method for the JB firmware
Also, I'm checking the latest ROMS Released for the Grand 2, but mostly of the custom ROMS are for the G7102, I don't know if there's ROMS for the G710 or you can use the same ROMS for the G7102, so please, if there's someone who can help me with this, I would be very thankful for your help, I know some things about flashing ROMS on Samsung devices, so you can skip the basic things.
I attached some screenshots of some information from my phone which it would be helpful.
Thanks in advance

Ill help you with some research more ROMs for youre G710
Commonly grand2 devices are sm g7102 so its really hard when you dont have the model. Also im gonna research root methods for youre phone, its the most important common thing you need.
---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------
Update: Since youre in grand 2 and you have custom recovery installed. Try downloading the supersu zip file from the chainfire website (it has updates so check the latest one), go to custom recovery, flash the zip file like you flashed the roms and youre done.

Advice and help for flashing SM-G530AZ (grandprimelteaio)

Hello,
I am having a heck of a time installing any kind of custom firmware on this Cricket Samsung Galaxy "Grand Prime" phone. The model is the SM-G530AZ aka "grandprimelteaio". I have tried installing the "Stripped G530AZ" image with Flashfire without luck, just boot loop until TWRP loads; I have tried flashing crDroid Oreo from the Grand Prime Unified Development thread via TWRP, without luck. Thankfully I made a full backup with TWRP before trying any of this.
Anyone have any suggestions of a ROM I should install? I'm tired of running 4.4.4 KitKat on this. I know there's an (official) Lollipop 5.x available, but I'd like to run a slimmed down, faster ROM with good customization options. There are so many models of this Grand Prime phone because everyone and their brother sells one but, for whatever reason, I can't find much for the Cricket 530AZ.
Thanks in advance
