I have this SM-T230NU with the latest 4.4.2 update. I dont really like 4.4 and lower so i am trying to find a android 5.X or even 6.x rom. I dont have root and TWRP and if there is a ACTUAL 5.x or 6.x firmware I am going to root and get TWRP for that.

The touchwiz samsung stuff just slows it down as i saw. and why is there no custom roms? Well i see that some people are working on CM12.1 for the T230/NU right here so i might as just wait for that or something else to come.

I installed acheron rom, it has trebutched launcer and its smoother than stock. At this moment those who started making cm12.1 are working on cm11 not on cm 12.1. We can expect to see stable 5.x custom roms maybe after 5.1.1 firmware gets relased for tab 4 7.0 wifi only, and honestly i wouldnt count on that.

Okay. I highly doubt that 5.1.1 FW will come out for T230NU model
It'll probably take a while. Blame Marvell. I'm running a StockRom series 4.4.2 ROM, rooted and super debloated. It runs fine, with a few hiccups here and there.
I recently installed the crdroid custom rom v1.9, and i must of lost root in the process. Could anyone help me in finding out how to root a s4 running 7.1.1. Ive tried kingroot but that was unsuccesfull, i dont any other methods for the latest nougat version, any help will be extremely helpful. Thanks

CM based ROMs, such as crDroid, are already rooted. But root has to be activated from the developer options.
Alternatively, you can flash a SuperSU zip.

Thank you so much, ive figured it out now. Thanks!
Does that apply to LineageOS as well? Can´t even put pics on SD atm using 7.1.2.
Any idea?
Thanks!
Does anyone know how to get it working with root? I've tried various kernels with both SU and/or Magisk, but it airways detects root.
This is on nougat with Helios 7.4.0 and currently latest Apollo.
Any ideas?

I think thismay be to do with me using a custom ROM? Is there any way to make sky go believe this is a legit version of nougat untouched?
Hey guys, im having trouble finding a stock version of android 4.4 KitKat for my Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime (sm-g530t variant) because im trying to get pretty much any version of LineageOS thats Marshmallow and above, but they all require me to have 4.4 kitkat installed, and i simply cannot find it ANYWHERE. if anyone out there can provide me a link, or send me a link to like google drive with a backup of a freshly stock factory reset backup? Just something please, im getting quite desperate as i cannot afford a new phone, but 5.1.1 is giving me all sorts of hell, what with not having adoptable storage and whatnot. So if anyone can help me out, it would be GREATLY appreciated, as i have searched and searched and searched for literally HOURS trying to find 4.4 for this thing, and i never found one. for reference, if need be, im trying to get LineageOS 15.1 or 15.0, if that helps too, but i dont know, im sort of a noob in a way. I can and have flashed a few alternate roms, but i need 4.4 for Lineage. Also, ive already checked on Sammobile, and the only firmware they have is 5.1.1. Ive even searched around XDA quite a bit, and still cant find it :crying: Thanks to all who can help, and have a great day!

You need *4.4 and above* to install lineage. So having 5.1.1 is fine as well.

Lineage 15 isn't working yet. Use the July 2017 build of Lineage 14. There's a few bugs, but I use it just fine. Be sure you are using the correct version of TWRP. I think I had to downgrade TWRP to install Lineage 14.

Oh, alright. i didnt know i had to use a specific version of TWRP, so i guess thats also on the list lol. Do you think it would make a difference if my current rom was a stock TW rom, but deodexed, debloated, and rooted?

Nope. Your stock TW ROM doesn't needs to be deodexed, de-bloted or anything. Only thing you need is a custom TWRP recovery to flash the ROM.

it still doesnt work actually, ive tried both the LineageOS 14.1, 14.0, and the Resserection Reborn roms. none of them work with a deodexed and de-bloated rom.

You're probably doing something wrong if that's the case.
Check if:
- You're flashing images for the proper device (SM-G530T1/gprimelte),
- You're using ODIN or TWRP correctly,
- Your images are not corrupt (there are MD5 files with each build for md5 verification, and zip signature checks with TWRP),
- Your device is hardware unlocked via Developer Options in the stock ROM,
- FRP lock is disabled on your device.
Let me know if you get back to stock 5.1.1 because nothing works. Im forced to use june version of lineage 14.1
got back to a working stock 5.1.1

Yeah i have checked all of those to make sure, but it seems yo just not want to use any other roms. The only rom i got to work was a debloated deodexed rom. If yhere is any other thing you think im possibly screwing up on, please do tell, thanks!
Hello!
I'm currently using pixel experience with predator kernel and magisk v23.
Today i installed an update to the rom but i noticed that not only i lost my root acess but it also reset to the default rom's kernel.
Is there any way to update it and stick with my kernel and root?
Thanks everyone

Update rom, kernel and then magisk in recovery without wipe something, then reboot. You flash only the rom over OTA.
