I need a custom ROM for G900R6. - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been unsuccessful for a while, and i need to find one. I would love to enjoy KitKat again, but that's just me I guess... Thanks in advance.
Also, i have looked for AGES and cannot find anything. I tried flashing a stock rom but Odin gives me errors.

Try flashing Philz Touch recovery, its the most stable recovery imo. Available for both the I9500 and I9505.Flash the .tar file with Odin in PDA.
I keep getting the message e signature verification failed. i have used auto root. i have enabled usb debugging. i have done everything in the steps of the rooting process and flashing process.
Slight progress
So I downloaded CWM recovery again and toggled off signature verification and I successfully managed to install my ROM. New porblem now, when I reboot the device it goes straight back to recovery mode every single time? Help please?
Hi - so I dont know if you guys think Im being stupid and/or lazy and havent found the right thread or if I am just asking a stupid question. If I am would someone kindly point me in the right direction and forgive my ignorance. If I am not being stupid can someone PLEASE help me with an answer. I have posted on several forums with this question and no one seems prepared to offer a solution. This is by no means a rant at forum members - I just hate being defeated by technology - and I have waited a week now for someone to offer me some much needed guidance.

May I know which variant on Note3 you are using.
and what's the OS version? 4.3? or 4.4.2 or 4.4.4
what's your region (CSC).??
I would suggest you to go into download mode and download appropriate stock firmware from SamMobile or from Samsung Updates (Link for N9005) and flash Stock ROM using ODIN.
Thanks.

Kies with CM13, other custom ROM possible?

I'm trying to get Kies to work with a custom ROM. I've tried several roms over the past few days trying to find one that performs great and feels good to me but I just realised that Kies won't give my info back.
There's a few important things I backed up which I need... It's my own fault for not paying attention when I got giddy with ROM swaps, but I'd sure appreciate some help.
Kies, smart switch, and Odin don't work with cm Roms.
It would be simplest flash stock, restore from kies, save what you need on a non-proprietary format, and then flash a custom rom.
I may flash to stock anyways, then root and remove the garbage programs I don't use.

On5 SM-G550T1 Custom Rom Sound Issues/Stock ROM Install issues.

Hello everyone a couple issues i have with my Samsung SM-G550T1. i installed a custom ROM (Galaxy Knight V2, upgrading to V3), because i accidentally removed the stock OS. No sound no camera, i have been reading multiple forms on this and cant find any fix for the sound (i dont mind the camera not working), if at all possible though i have found a few stock Rom files floating around for my model. every time i try to flash with Odin v3 it always fails after 'recovery.img' i am flashing all 4 file parts.
anyways can someone tell me how to flash the Stock ROM, or is there a sound fix for the custom ROM?
thanks guys ive been at this for months.
Also my wife has the same exact model phone, anything i can take from that to fix any issues?
Hi steven do u have still this issue or u get resolved it. I can help u out

I see the date on this is years ago...
If I were you I'd get the wifes on5 and backup recovery (recovery.img) using twrp app from playstore then flash twrp recovery via fast boot and make a backup and transfer it to computer or external sdcard as soon as it's done, flash stock recovery back on wife's and reboot and take sdcard out or grab backup off pc and transfer onto yours and restore it and reboot. That's what I'd do if it was me... Far as I know sound is NOT fixed yet. We have a few guys who are smart as hell working on it. Hopefully it will get solved soon.
I hate TouchWiz. Lol.

Help flashing and rooting Chinese S5 SM-G9006V

Ok guys, I'm really confused. I got this phone from a friend and the backstory was that it was once rooted and running a custom rom with google play apps, but someone did a hard reset or something and it went back to stock, which is hard to believe, but that's what they're telling me. If the info is correct, that means someone successfully flashed it at some point.
I found this guide https://www.lineageosroms.org/forums/forum/samsung/galaxy-s5-china-sm-g9006v-sm-g9008v-kltechn/ and got stuck right away. I can't get TWRP to work. Odin says it's done, but all I get is the stock recovery.
I found multiple threads about this phone, but it's all very confusing to say the least and I don't know where to begin with. I hope there's someone here using it who can give me some pointers as to how I can flash this thing.
Thanks in advance.
EUREKA! I've done it. All i had to do is uncheck the auto reboot option and use the key combination for entering recovery while still in the download mode. That got me to TWRP and I was able to successfully flash the rom and gapps.
Hope that info is useful to someone else.
