How to insall arter97-recovery-i9506-6.59.0.zip?
I've been browsing and searching for the past hour without an answer. I just bought the GT-I9506 and it came installed/updated automatically to android 5.0.1 build DOC5. I can't flash any custom recoveries with Odin, it seemingly succeeds with the flash and comes up with a green PASS, but I'm still left with the stock recovery. I'm thinking the bootloader must be locked, if so, how do I unlock it? How can I root this damn thing?? I would like to install CM12 but it seems impossible right now. Please help.
Thanks for sharing

But some roms need root to open multi language...
So I have a MACBOOK and a SAMSUNG NOTE 3.
I'm trying to find a step-by-step guide on how to root my device running currently on 4.4.2 firmware!
I found that for Mac all the job is done with Heimdall! But not sure on how to work it!
I'm a totally beginner in all these...!!! I've found only some videos, but are very bad!
I need to know the right order of installing, for the kernels, bootloaders, modems, roms, custom recoveries... where the hell I get my devices pit!!! I'm like totally lost! Only seeing all these words around and getting more and more confused!
What is needed for what reason! And all these according to mac use!
I would like to get the latest lolipop, if possible, and also root!
Ok thank you for reading me! And please, I'd appreciate any help!
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
Hey everyone,
BlissPop recently notified me of an updated version and so I used its integrated function to download and install it. After clicking the install-button the system was rebooted to recovery mode (TWRP) and left me standing there.
I've got following questions I hope I'll get answers on:
Do I have to repeat the flashing-procedure (like when originally flashing BlissPop the first time) in order to update it?
And wouldn't all my data be lost then?
Please excuse me for asking on such relatively basic topic for this place. :/ I am pretty inexperienced concerning Custom ROMs and would really appreciate help or much rather guidance with this, if possible. The board's search feature didn't bring up any but that might as well be because english is not my native tongue.
Anyways, I really hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
Yours

I want to install superman rom on my canadian s7 edge. I want reviews from all the members using it about performance, battery life and all that stuff.
One more thing i would like to know is that can i unroot my edge after installation of superman rom?
Please someone explain the procedure of installing rom as well as csc selection as i want to use volte on my device.
Think you are going to have to do some reading my friend. People aren't going to do all your work for you. Why not go read the Superman ROM thread for details, reviews and instructions? No one is going to spoon feed you information that you need to obtain yourself from reading.
^This.
Do the work yourself. Everything you need to know is available here. The dev is active and tries to answer everyone, and there at least 2 Q&A threads.
Don't be so lazy.
Hey guys, I would normally try to read up on any help I can find but I feel like it would take forever
for what I want to do so any help would be greatly appreciated!
I am new to Android and I want to root the Note 4 (SM-N910T) and install a custom rom like cyanogenmod
or stock android AFTER updating the stock v4.4.4 (kitkat) to Nougat (hopefully) or even Marshmallow is fine
assuming this is possible.
I am only going to use it as a tablet, and is not connected to any carrier. Of course I need WIFI.
I want to root because I want to eliminate any chance of future lag and also get rid of bloatware.
Could you please direct me or give me step by step instructions to accomplish this? You don't have to
assume that I'm on grandma knowledge level, but if one of the steps requires that I back it up first, I would
have no idea how to do this or the best way to do it....
Any advice or opinion would be appreciated as well regarding my little project. If what I'm asking is not
possible, any suggestion on how to get rid of bloatware and lag and update to the best working android
version would be appreciated!
Thanks guys!
