Same problem with me.I have the same korean varient with LG u+ logo. I am using it in Pakistan. Read almost every thread regarding korean variants but there is'nt any method specific for SM-N900L.

So are you wanting to flash a custom recovery e.g. twrp and then install a custom rom?
Sorry if I misunderstood your question.

Do you have a custom recovery and is your mobile rooted?

Hello Hokage-Sama,
i think the custom recovery installed is TWRP
did some further searching online and i was able to restore the firmware from lollipop down to kitkat, from there i was able to download a md5 file which i ran from Odin and i was able to root the phone however, its based on kitkat and im still searching if there are any for lollipop and the only one i see if the 1 poser who asks for a $25 payment to update a N900L to N9005.
... was hoping if i can use Aryamod custom rom but i think my phone should be on a rooted lollipop under N9005 model only.
hope this made sense
thank you

Root is not required to install a custom rom.
If your phone can run 9005 ROMs, you could try editing the updater script to include your phone.

hi, thanks for the reply
apologies i dont know what you meant to edit hte updater script.
Sorry i have a N900L and based on reading some other threads only
DarkLord Note 5 RC2.1 or Phronesis v5.1 will work on my unit.
before installing the rom i should have a custom recovery right? but to get a custom recovery my bootloader needs to be unlocked first.
i am currently stuck on unlocking my bootloader, i downloaded samsung usb drivers, go to recovery mode, then insert the usb on the phone, i hear a sound when you connect a device on the pc and saying that the device is ready to use but i am unable to see the contents of my phone.
am i doing it correctly?
thank you once again

Are you sure the phone's bootloader is locked? If the bootloader is not locked, do not use any unlocking apps because this will proably brick the phone.
Just install TWRP from Odin. I don't recommend Philz Touch or CWM as I don't they have been updated for a while.

i tried the twrp custom recovery based on the link you sent above thru Odin, it messed up my custom recovery, when i tried to go there it said something like unable to load recovery and goes to download mode and the phone wont startup normally.
is that a sign that my bootloader is locked since i cant install the custom recovery?
used my standard backup recovery to bring back the phone.
i wonder how other SM-N900L users installed their roms.
any other help would be greatly appreciated
thanks a lot

When you flashed twrp, did Odin say the installation was successful?
Download the tar version of twrp for your device from here: twrp.me .
In Odin, do not check anything except f.reset time. Flash twrp and, when you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, wait 5 seconds, replace battery, now use button combination to boot into recovery.

thanks for the help, was finally able to install twrp custom recovery. the latest version wont work on SM-N900L, i used TWRP-2.8.6.0-N900S version and it worked! im now running on Darklord N5 custom rom for Note3 and loving it!!!

galaxy note 4 s-lte(SM-N916L)

Does anyone know about this model? No one seems to know..
I have one problem. At the moment there are several ways to root galaxy note4, including philz recovery and cf auto root. However, as far as i know it works for only note4 model sm-n910 line. However in korea, upper model for n-910 is released, known as sm-n916 line. Both model have the same hardware and software specs, the only difference is their network connection specs. (N916 has faster and improved data lte connection) . Now the problem is that i have n916 model, and rooting for this device does not work with the method that can root n910 model. I thought it would work because everything software and hardware specs are the same. I am really frustrated because i cant root ㅜ.ㅜ
It's only been a month or twice since its release. The exact model is SM-N916L(LG U plus phone carrier. Alphabet that comes after 916 represents differet phone carriers. S is for skt, and K is for Kt, L is for Lg uplus). It is a upper model for SM-N910L galaxy note 4. You can see that SM-N910L model is present in autoroot([email protected]@eu) but not the upper model SM-N916L. Any ways i could help the developers to enable rooting for this device? perhaps finding you the stock firmware? Demand for this device than previous note4 n910 will increase. Really hope to root this device.
Could i get any help? (Btw i am living in korea using korean model). Really willing to donate if i could root this model!
hope i can get a reply as soon as possible. Have a good day~

Make a backup before and if something goes wrong you should have the firmware files at hand to revert changes, you will be responsible for anything you do with your device.​

The recoveries were never meant for Marshmallow since those devices were running Android Lollipop.
The Android Marshmallow update for those devices had come out much later on.

link of site (https://samsungvn.com/threads/tong-hop-cho-note4-han-n910-n916-slk.7317/)
TWRP 3.0.2.0 => Use for 6.0.1
TWRP 2.8.7.0 => Use for 5.1.1 and 6.0.1
General link pooling (2.8.7.0 and 3.0.2.0) for the SLK N910_N915_N916, of which there are 2 types :
File zip => flash through recovery
File tar => flash via Odin (from flash recovery 2 times)

SM. G531H 5.1.1 Lollipop

People, I've searching in web and I found out that a new version of Galaxy Grand Prime have been released, but this new one has Android Lollipop. Mobile spects are the same in both, except for the OS.
This mean that the ones that have G530~ version aren't getting Lollipop?
There is a video on Youtube of an unboxing, you can check it out
Good Luck!

http://www.cnet.com/news/sprint-sells-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime/
OP seems to be referring to the above link. It appears Sprint is roling out the same device with lollipop for some $60-100 more than we paid Cricket to get it with KK during the initial release.

i have g531h that
s awsome greate
cpu 1.3
Android 5.1.1
Screen is good
the battery save in 100% work for 10 day no charge needed

Hi, I was ready to install CWM Recovery on my Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G531H phone which I guess it is running Lollipop but I started reading about Lollipop.
Now I have a question. What is the problem if my phone is running Lollipop? I don't understand if could be a problem if I want to install CWM and then rooting it.
Are you so kind to tell me about this?
Can I use the same CWM files that is made for Prime SM-G530H?
Can I use the same files made for Prime SM-G530H if I want to root it? Or where I can get these file?
Of course all of these question don't need to be answered. I just need to figure it out what I need to do.
Thanks.

Dont know about CWM recovery..BUT..I'm sure..TWRP recovery and Root exploit must match to OS version..the files are not interchangable between OS versions..unless it just happens to work out that way in development..but that'd probably be a RARE case..
I ALWAYS update..AFTER know good TWRP and Root has been developed for the next update..before I step to the next OS version..
But..like my device here..came from the box with 5.1.1 THEN one is stuck with no TWRP or Root..at the mercy of development..
You may try to revert..to the OS..when all your files were compatable..and wait it out for the next development..

plz help.

i cant seem to update my grand prime

hello guys im quite new with this samsung grand prime (Im interested in knowing how to root it also,kindly help me good people ) i kept checking system update but it says phone is up to date ??
is there any new update for it ?? my phone is very laggy, is there anything i can do ? i uninstalled some apps,but is there another way for it ??
Android version 5.1. 1
Kernel Version : 3.0.8
Model number SM-G531H
help me guys im new with it

The Kernel version you mentioned is wrong. Secondly if it's saying that it'll be upto date as for your region.
Search in the threads you'll find the TWRP recovery for this variant, flash it nd flash the supersu. After that debloat your rom nd take a backup of data, factory reset the device completely nd now you're good to go.

Advice and help for flashing SM-G530AZ (grandprimelteaio)

Hello,
I am having a heck of a time installing any kind of custom firmware on this Cricket Samsung Galaxy "Grand Prime" phone. The model is the SM-G530AZ aka "grandprimelteaio". I have tried installing the "Stripped G530AZ" image with Flashfire without luck, just boot loop until TWRP loads; I have tried flashing crDroid Oreo from the Grand Prime Unified Development thread via TWRP, without luck. Thankfully I made a full backup with TWRP before trying any of this.
Anyone have any suggestions of a ROM I should install? I'm tired of running 4.4.4 KitKat on this. I know there's an (official) Lollipop 5.x available, but I'd like to run a slimmed down, faster ROM with good customization options. There are so many models of this Grand Prime phone because everyone and their brother sells one but, for whatever reason, I can't find much for the Cricket 530AZ.
Thanks in advance
