Lollipop update on Galaxy GT-i9515

Hi everybody,
I need help with my rooted Samsung Galaxy S4 Value Edition (gt-i9515, running 4.4.2). I'd like to update it to lollipop and I can't find any specific tutorial for the i9515, which for some reasons seems to be different from the basic i9505 version. I'm running the official rom, since there isn't any support for custom roms on the i9515.
Somebody help me please

Official Update
Hello, no need to do anything guys,
just go to Settings / Check for Updates, it will automatically download the official Samsung Update to lollipop 501

Thank you for your answer, but I had already tried the official way before posting and it didn't work because the phone is rooted

Download the ROM from sammobile and flash it with Odin. You will need to re root and please bear in mind that xposed currently does not work on Samsung Lolipop ROMs

Thank you very much, I'll try that!! :good:

I just realized that the GT-9515 is not even mentioned between the s4 models, hence there's no firmware available to download. How do I solve this now?

Has anyone been able to ROOT their SM-n910v Marshmallow 6.0.1?

Build MMB29K. I've tried and can't get TWRP loaded on there. I just bought this phone, but thinking about sending it back and keeping my rooted Note 3 if I can't get this to root! Here is the partial link to my post on Reddit about this same topic:
galaxynote4/comments/52my2m/has_anyone_been_able_to_root_their_smn910v/
Still no solution. Please help!

Same here
Can't get Odin to write the bootloader successfully.

Right if u took the ota you are locked as far the bootloader goes ....flashing will not be possible til this is corrected ....im told u can odin back to 5.1.1 which has a pretty easy method the safely upgrade so rooting and unlock are simplified. I never tried to rooting from the stock firmware.... does kingroot ever get u rooted? If so the u could try the aforementioned method but u would need a 6.0.1 compatible kernel (Sprint) given u r on there dev cid .

in the verizon note 4 form is where you should be looking because you have a locked bootloader.

Root lost after upgrading to G900W8VLS1DPF3 !

I recently upgraded my S5 firmware to G900W8VLS1DPF3 and a few hours later security update prompt popped up. I went ahead and installed it. Later I realised that root was lost, not sure if it was the security update or the firmware upgrade. Tried PD3 version of CF-Root, it ran successfully but still no root access available. I have tried to look around on the Internet to see anyone has been able to root this firmware, couldn't see anything relevant.
So, is it possible to root this PF3 version, has anyone been successful? Any other methods I could try?
Thanks

No one has a clue?

Hi!
It seems your phone is
Canada (Telus)(TLS)
SM-G900W8
GALAXY S5
6.0.1
flash SuperSU through custom recovery (TWRP for example)

Thanks Reyse, I have used that method dozens of times and yet it never crossed my mind this time! Must be getting old!
I have root access once again, thanks again.

hello all, someone have a link for update the S5 modem with the last update G900W8VLS1DPF3

While I don't know of a website that hosts modem
Images but you can download the whole firmware image and
extract the modem firmware and flash it, which you
probably are aware.

Think you should be fine by flashing twrp and su 2.82 I can reccomend flashing twrp and straight to extremely custom rom by Luattic though. Rooted straight away, no bloatware and better performance!

Well I sucessfully rooted it on Android 7.0 Nougat and have found out that it has been updated to support the devices that are like mine so you should be able to root it by using the root pack!
