Which version is the best to update to if I want to make sure I receive notifications and maximise battery life?
Also it would help me a lot, since I've been reading the main threads for a week and I still don't understand, what links I need to be using and how I get to unlock the bootloader, flash the rom and do the rooting? I've asked once or twice and all I've gotten is people telling me to read and understand what's being said. I do not understand what to do, and I don't want to brick my phone. I've never rooted my phone before so some help here would be appreciated a lot.
Thank you

Hey guys you really need to help me on this.
I wanted to update my athena to wm6. Unfortunatly i didnt run the unlocker before and now i can´t even do a hard resest.
But i can go in booloader mode. People adviced me run the unlocker but the athena isent recogniced by the unlocker. So i cant do this either. Except you can say to me what went wrong?
So i think the only thing to rescue my ameo is to get the original tmobile german rom so that i dont get the wrong vender id error.
If somebody of you can supply me with that it would be awesome. If not is there a way to make an installer or backup of the german rom. Because i have a friend who has a working ameo. But he is no geek. So the complex cant be to complex.
Plz help me my ameo is not running for days and i want to use it again.
You're going in the right direction by starting a new thread here. However, people with the skills may not be reading this forum. May I suggest that you post this question also on a forum more likely to be read by people who knows how to do this as well?
I was thinking maybe here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=259 since your question is relevant to all phones, not just Ameo.
Also, all the ROM cooks must know. May be PM them will give you better chance of getting help?
There is this very clever guy by the name of dark simpson who started this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311909
I also suggest that you read this thread to get a feel of his area of expertise. I read only a few posts in the thread so far not think he definitely knows a tool that you can use to extract your ROM. Read this thread to see if your question is already answered. Else may be you could PM him to give you pointers on how to solve your problem.
Good luck, and I hope you get it working soon.
thank you that helps i will check the thread.
See the next post
This article is more directly relevant for your problem.
http://www.modaco.com/content/Daily...p-rebuilding-and-restoring-your-SPV-M700-ROM/
He outlined 9 steps there. The first step could be ignored as it deals with installing Olipro's unlocker.
Step 2 to 8 deals with backing up the ROM. Some steps pertains to optimizing the size of the bin file and is not really needed, but I guess there is no harm still. All the tools you need are there too. Step 9 is to flash the WM5 rom created by step 2 to 8.
After that, you could install Olipro's unlocker then flash to PK 3.0.
The author of this thread, Paul, looks like a nice and helpful guy. I suggest that you read his articleon how to back up ROM carefully. It's on a different device,but I think the principle is the same. Once you have understood the step, get him to help you to adapt the procedure for Ameo.
Hope that helps you.

thank you that looks quit complicated, i dont know if i can convice the friend to install a lot of apps on his device, he is more like a bussines partner but perhaps i find somebody on the net, who will do it for me and i can supply them with the guide.
What do you think in which forum im most likly to find somebody with the original german tmobile rom?
If you read the link carefully, you'll see that there is no need to install anything on your friend's unit. It will only do a read. Not write involved. Anyway, the most likely forum where people have that ROM is here.
Anyone still on Tmobile WM5 (german) able to help?
hey i carefully read the thread and even i don´t understand it fully. Its not that easy to do. I don´t think he can do it. This is procedure for experts. Anybody must have the original rom here.
ok thanks for your help. I found the solution in a german forum. For everybody needing the german rom go to http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?p=964813#post964813

Hey guys, I'm new to all this flashing etc. and now I wish I never started lol. I'm really worried, I USPL'd the latest energyrom and really liked it, but 1) I have severe stability problems 2) The phone won't connect to a network.
So I have a couple of questions, basically I would love to keep the energyrom so can I fix the stability problems and get the actual phone function to work? But what I'd really prefer to do is go back to my stock ROM, is this even possible ?
Note to admin: I hope this is the right section, sorry if it is not.
Note to all: Please ask for more info, if need be.
Note to all #2: Thank you very much in advance if you can help !
click the tutorial link in my signature and retrace ALL the steps to flashing to make sure you've completed them all. a non-working phone function coupled with the "green screen" is a sure sign you missed a step somewhere. and yes, the link will also direct you to the process of getting back to a stock ROM. fyi, the mods will likely close this thread so you should post further questions in the "guide to flashing" or "returning to stock ROM" threads. hope you get it sorted out.

If you do want to go back to stock rom, you should just be able to flash it as you used the USPL method you will still have the stock SPL on your phone.
From your post it seems that you did not have issues with the blue/green screen, so I presume you had the correct USPL 1.54 before you flashed. If you do want to remain with the Energy rom, it is probably best to post these queries in the thread for that rom. It is possible that these issues have been sorted out or else you just had a bad flash. Did you do a hard reset after the flash?

Future posts should be made in Dummies guide thread
hello and let me first apologize if this is yet another post on another ROM.
I have a nexus4, and after the last update for 4.3 is battery time really been bad, even after a reset.
so I could use a little help around the CyanogenMod.
I think there are so many different versions of CyanogenMod.
if there is a kind soul who could help me find what I need (the right link), I will be overjoyed.
my phone is not rooted yet, it must be right? so lacking I also help to find a guide.
someone who can help find what I need?
best regards
setfire.
having a good day.

Hey everyone, I'm currently trying to update my phone to maybe a new rom or something that runs a tad bit smoother than the original rom posted.
But quite frankly I have honestly no idea where to even start.
I'm using a T-Mobile Galaxy S5
Version 4.4.2
The only thing it has is being rooted.
I just don't want to mess things up.
if someone could explain the process and maybe link a guide in order from which I should follow it'll be greatly appreciated.
Also if you could recommend a rom you have experiemented with and you feel is very nice or fast please link that below also.
Sorry for asking so much ><
Newbie s5 user incoming
There are many custom ROMs, not to mention many existing threads and tutorials. So why don't you browse the forum and do some reading? You'd learn a lot more about your options and be in a much better position to ask informed questions.
It's not really in your best interests (not to mention rather presumptuous) to expect someone to write a treatise or personal guide just for you. Especially when guides and tutorials already exist if you spend a few minutes looking in the forum yourself.
If reading a few posts is somehow too much work, then pick a random custom ROM like Phoenix or Xtrestolite and follow the installation instructions in the custom ROM thread.

There. Happy?
Hi ,
My daughter has had this phone for about 18 months and it has never missed a beat until last week. It will not start, it will not get passed the Samsung logo.
I have tried to flash the phone without success, again it will not get passed the logo screen - now, i could have done the procedure wrong......very probable, could somebody point me to a complete newbie guide, including links for progs required and if possible a step by step, including rooting the phone ( i fear i may have done this wrong)?
I am assuming that the phone is salvageable and not bricked? I have had some experience of flashing before, with my HTC Sensation, had numerous custom Roms on that , but it has been some time since.
Really chaps, any kind of help and guidance wouid be really appreciated with this problem.
Regards
Rob
Flash the firmware of your region.There are video tutorials on YouTube to help you get a way around.

Please post support questions in the questions and answers thread
You will need to flash stock rom via odin - you will find instructions on my firmware thread at the top of the dev section or by clicking the link to goto my list of threads in my signature
For rooting please search - you will find lots of root zips and guides - in fact theres one I think currently on the 1st page of the general section
fixed
