If you don't know anything about porting already, then it's going to be impossible for you.
Multiple issues that need to be overcome that include low level coding, drivers, codecs, RIL, WiFi, plus many, many others.
Sorry for the bad news.
Try root and adding the xposed framework, it's the closest any of us G531H users will get to a custom rom.

[Q] can someone teach me how to build a ROM

My friend owns an samsung galaxy tab 4 t-230 and would love to upgrade it into a more pure android. Since i kind of got into android ROMs and there are no AOSP or CM roms for the tab 4 t-230 this would be a great chance for me to build a AOSP or CM rom. I have ubuntu 14.10 and a decent enough pc with 16 gb of ram and an i7. If anyone could help me abit of how to build a AOSP or CM rom for the device i would be verry thankfull.
----------------------Edit-----------------------
I wanted to say thank to you guys! I did quite some progress by now. If you own a t230 / nu then feel free to check out my custom kernel

Relevant post - some starting info, and check out the CM wiki he links to. Also, and this is a very basic step, but if you've never done this before it can be informative: download a rom zip file (preferably but not necessarily a stock-based kitkat rom for this device) and open it up in either 7zip or WinRar, check out the layout and structure, and familiarize yourself with the updater-script. (Actually you can do that with a firmware tar file too). Sorry I can't give you any more useful info, not a dev, definitely not a rom designer, just a guy who knows a fair amount of android stuff.
Also don't let the tone of that post discourage you; the poster was answering a guy who was basically asking about the feasibility of building a brand new rom for the sole purpose of being able to use one particular proprietary Samsung app. Yes it is difficult, but still doable, and you say you're motivated...
Yes i did forgot to say that any links for learning are appriciated
Well.. I would ask moonbutt74 for more info regarding commands and such, probably more info than I can give but.. keep in mind your going to have to download about 20+GB of source code and all that. Also a bunch more knowledge of more things I don't remember. But it is alot

Well I decided to revisit this thread. Never thought I would come so far. I really want to say thanks to all of you who supported me and still support me. Everyone has a beginning and here was mine. Now I am actually there where I really wanted to be. Releasing a custom kernel and finally work on a custom ROM! Thank you XDA!

I'm amazed on how much people learn and achieve as well as myself. I've seen people who were total newbies then later built custom recoveries, CM12, Mods, Roms etc. Anyway good luck on working your rom!

Also I thank you my life for introducing me to moonbutt74. He learned me everything from how to work with custom kernels to Roms. Sadly he decided to stop developing a few Werks ago but he's doing it for his own good. I still will mention @moonbutt74 on my future projects because he really is the one who changed me from confused to knowing what is actually going on. So thanks allot !

Hi, yup you are right, sorry. I have an SM N910 L using Lollipop 5.0.1 For a couple of weeks now I have been unable to connect to my provider. I have a data sim and everything worked fine for about 7 weeks and then it just stopped. I have tried everything to solve this issue.
Please see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/im-bonkers-ill-pay-50-dollars-to-fix-t3169748
The only thing I haven't tried is installing a custom ROM in the hope that somehow this will solve the issue. Do you think it might work? How exactly would I do this?

Yes the s6 one is the only one working i know but i really want to have cyanogenmod for my a5 before any other mod,and the s6 one is not that different of the lollipop update 5.02 with a lot of bugs as its the older release of lollipop.

Ohh thats sad :/. but still ill just be patient for a developer to start to build for my specific device. The A5 can really be a nice successor. I really wish it brings same positive aspect same as the S series. Cause so jealous of samsung series have more developer than us. Anyway Good luck guys.
agreed, its a great phone with great promise, but its problem with this chinesse models and same phone with 4 diff models. You aactually need more develpoers than. I hope it will get better soon, its kinda still new phone, but compared to s series, its better to buy s5 and have tons of roms, if you are in to that stuff.I had same problem with htc desire 820, chinesse phone with no develpors, tons of models and 0 roms

What to do,i really wanted that phone for premium touch and now i have to stay with it.no worries i know and im sure a developer will make their way up for this device.it still new as you said,so gotta wait for roms (im so much into that) :'( Good luck again devs. Thank you in advance
Patience is the key to greatness :angel:

Best Marshmallow (MM - 6.0.1) Rom with Xposed Support

Hey guys, i'm late in the sm-g935F community.
There is a ton of N-7.0 Roms out there but i need MM to use Xposed.
I love the old Cyanogenmod releases with all the nice build in features and a great battery efficiency.
Can you recommend something? If possible something that is still supported and good for a daily driver?
Would be really thankfull.
All the best!

I have found the @BoBCatRoM for me personally is the best all
around custom rom with lot's of excellent features and options.
Xposed works just fine with Marshmallow 6.01 version of it.
There are two versions of Bobcatrom, a Marshmallow 6.01
and a Nougat 7 version.
There are many themes to choose from for both flavors of the rom.
Bobcatrom also has excellent battery life.
Here is the link for BoBCatRoM:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development/rom-bobcatrom-mm-6-0-1-t3404008
Give it a try!
Have a great day!
ok i tried it and the theme engine is horrible, its crashing, looks childish and im not happy with it.
Somebody else a suggestion?

I do understand what you mean by your words (as I have tried it as well) ...... but the way you stated it sounds unappreciative and deserving
I doubt you will get very many answers after that ---- maybe you should edit

[Request] SlimKat ROM.

Please don't hate me for this.
I know it is difficult, if not impossible,
but if someone would please port SlimKat ROM (x32) I would be forever grateful.
It would really mean a lot.
I am really sorry.
Also, thank you.

No one Is gonna port any ROM because we have a lot of official nougat ROMs.I KNOW KITKAT ROMS HAVE GREAT battery and performance but nougat gives a different feeling

I understand.
Also, I haven't found a device with the same chipset as A6000. The closest, I believe might be Moto G (Peregrine/Falcon) with a quad-core Snapdragon 400.
So, even if possible it would mean a lot of work.
I really wish for SlimKat ROM.
Someday, we might have it.
:fingers-crossed:
