Samsung s5 G900F not booting after MIUI 7 install - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
I am new to the forum and new also to modifying android phones. I have a G900F and I wanted to try a few custom ROMs. I first installed Lineage 14.1 and everything went pretty smooth. After I wanted to try the official S5 MIUI7 v6.5.27 which I downloaded from the MIUI website. I wiped everything I could and installed the zip file with TWRP. There was no progress bar but it seemed to perform tasks. When finished, I rebooted but the phone is stuck on the Samsung logo without any progress. I tried many times and I always had the same issue. Could you please help me out with this? What can I do to fix the install issue? My phone is now working (installed the Super Lite by Vincom) but I would like to give MIUI a try. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Miui 7 is based on android lollipop so you gotta flash lollipop bootloader and modem in order to get it working.
I would like to suggest you MIUI 8 by blackbuga, you can find the thread on Galaxy s5 development (snapdragon).

Thanks! That was a quick reply!
I imagined that there was some issue of this kind. I was driven to v7 for its being an official release and stable. I saw that blackbuga's is beta and thought it was unstable. Well actually I wasn't relying on my skills, as I said I have been playing around with rom's for a week or so.
I'll give that a try

Recently updated my old Nexus 10/Manta to OmniROM 6.0.1 and I couldn't be happier. I had a fair bit of messing around on the first try until I got the sequence right...full wipe, flash ROM, flash Gapps pico and everything works REALLY well.
However, installing nightly updates is the same for me as the initial flash...I have to do a full wipe or I get the Google Services loop.
Am i doing something wrong is that how nightlies work currently?
Thanks.

Hi,
i'm rather new with rooting, flashing and all the stuff that comes with it.
Now i have an Oppo Find7 and i managed to install the following:
-TWRP recovery
-OmniRom 5.1 nightly
-Gapps 5.1
I'm pleased everything worked but now i saw OmniRom 6.0, when i tried to flash it with gapps i encountered the first problem:
-The install of OmniRom went well but when i try to install Gapps 6.0 stock, it is saying i dont have enough storage? Can i somehow increase or free up this storage to it can fit?
Second question: If the above is possible, is there a way to flash OmniRom 6.0 and Gapps 6.0 without the loss of data? or do i still have to backup and restore with titanium backup?
Thanks in advance

Hi there,
I have a Nexus 7 2013 wifi. Latest omni marshmallow but I have one issue. Battery drain.
It seems as it does not suspend. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction to help squash this pesky bug.
What I can add is that I have a Nexus 5 with same apps and settings without the issue .
Thank you

I just upgraded from ZTE Maven running Android 5.1, to a Galaxy Express 3 running Android 6.0.1. love the phone, but for one thing. I playing a game called Walking War Robots. It played good on the 5.0, but really lags bad on the 6.0.1.. I thought the better phone would be better but it's worse. I've also noticed that the graphics are better for the 6.0.1, including shadows for robots, etc. I believe it adds to the problem. What I'd like to know, is there a way to improve the performance of my phone to get rid of the lag, or is there a way to disable enhanced graphics and make the game think I'm running 5.0 to get rid of the shadows and enhanced graphics. I can do without robot shadows for the sake of smooth gameplay. Any help will be greatly appreciated... YodaXIII
password reset?
I decided to try the official Nougat for my 6P. Before going there, I made a TWRP backup, which I used "adb pull" to get to my computer. After trying Nougat and deciding I didn't like it, I went back to Omnirom from the TWRP backup. At boot it asks for the decryption password, which works fine, and omnirom starts up correctly. It then prompts me for password after restart, and it insists that I enter the wrong one. What options do I have to get past this, other than a clean install and then recover my apps/data from backups?
[edit: solved it] I entered the file manager of TWRP and removed /data/system/locksettings* After this, the next reboot required decryption password, as expected, but did not require a lockscreen password, so all was fine and I could again set a new lockscreen protection.
I have a micromax unite 4 pro (Q465) but on google there is no recovery img for any recovery I request u to help me how can I install a custom recovery to flash a zip filee please help me

[ROM] [WIP] [P600] [TW 5.0.2] [help needed] Iron ROM port for Galaxy Note 10.1 2014

In this Thread I will port the Iron Rom from the Tab S to our Note 2014
Thanks to Tkkg1994 for making the awsome Iron Rom and xluco for the Kernel
Just to be clear: I didn't developed the Iron Rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/prerooted-stock-touchwiz-rom-t2973107) nor the xluco Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2725193. I just put them together.
Ok, first how you install the Iron Rom: Download the Iron Rom for the T800 and the xluco Kernel for SM-P600 first and put them on external SD Card. After that go into Recovery and wipe EVERYTHING exept external storage. Maby you can also wipe system only but i highly recommend yout to wipe everything. Install now the Iron Rom and DO NOT CHECK REBOOT AFTER THE IRON ROM INSTALLATION, when it has finished, install the xluco kernel. Than do a Reboot. for me, the Rom took some time to boot, and often did some random reboots. when you see the assistant, you have to be very fast, dont configure anything, as I already said before, it will very likely crash after some time.
So, now why I opned this Thread: I'm not a developer, so I cannot do this by myself. Hope I will get some help, I know everybody is waiting for a Lollipop Custom Rom
good point mate ... Maybe I'm going to give other CRs of that a Try ... have you tried that with other Custom ROMs like AOSP ones or others ?
Yes, I did. In the past I could get a KitKat Rom from our big brother P900 running on my device using the same method as I used here.

@wulkanat @hitman1376 were either of you able to get this ROM running on your device? If so, which build did you use? I've tried at least a dozen different configurations via Aroma Installer on both the 2.4.5 and 2.5 builds, but the SystemUI crashes on me within seconds of booting up every time.

To be honest , I didn't try it out ... but , as the devices have so many things in common , it wasn't so odd ... but , does it happen the same on the MM ROM ?

You would think so. A couple years ago, it seemed like most apps/features were interchangeable between the Note 2014, Note Pro, Tab Pro, and Tab S on Kitkat. I distinctly remember my go-to ROM was originally designed for the Note Pro.
As far as IronROM V3.0 (MM) goes, the Aroma installer detected my device right away and put the kibosh on that experiment... not that it would have worked anyway seeing as how we don't have a 6.0.1 kernel... I was just hoping to get enough of the ROM installed so I could use TWRP's file manage to extract the files I want while still in recovery.
Anyway, now that my Note7 will be stuck with a non-rootable, unsupported, firmware for eternity; I figured it'd be fun to grab my old SM-P600 and see what havoc I can wreak on it.

Well , if you just want to play around , you can try out the stock Lollipop with my Prime Kernel and get better Performance and Battery or even CM13 / CM14 ... about the aroma , you can disable the device verification ... also I guess you can force the TW MM boot with Lollipop Kernel like it boots CM13 and CM14 ( I don't mean booting without any problems and also don't forget T-805's MM Kernels !! ) the Biggest problem is that we don't have a MM Bootloader which is the biggest problem ... anyway , this device is still so powerful to play newest games and OSs ... It's not fair to abandon it :laugh: ... You know ? I had a very busy day and I have been awake since around 6 AM when I woke for salat till now which is 12:41 AM :crying: !! so , My brain doesn't have any more juice and I need to get some sleep ... I hope you like my kernel ( esp. In case you'd like to test it out :laugh: ) ... I Updated it just some minutes ago

Custom Rom Install Issues on Sprint Note 3 (SM-N900P)

OK< this is the issue I am having with the phone, which is a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900P (Sprint). I originally rootted it about 2 and a hal years ago, and I THINK, not absolutely sure, but think I used KingoRoot when I did, only because no matter what I couldnt get it to root otherwise. I originally installed slimkat, then in January 2016 I installed Resurrection Remix 5.1 . The phone runs great, but the rub is, it wont let me install ANY other ROMs, olde or newer. Also, when I rooted it, I had to use Flashify to install the Recovery while I was still on the original Samsung ROM. That version is 3.0.2-0. All the other info I can think of that may help anyone who is willing to give me an idea is listed below.
I would REALLY like to try a NOTE 7 rom, seems they are really really good from what I have read, or at least RR 6.0
Build Number Resurrection Remix Lollipop 5.1.1-f26-LMY48Y
Sprint Note 3 (SM-N900P) Running Resurrection Remix LP v5.5.9, rooted,
Kernal version 3.4.0-g7db381d

Baseband Version

ANY help would be fantastically appreciated, have been a big fan of this site since WAY back (AT&T Pocket PC PHONE and Samsung BlackJack years.)
Thanks in advance.
I would also ask in the SPRINT forum .

I would risk it and factory wipe, install stock ROM and try to root using the newest methods available and proceed to flash a custom recovery (TWRP 2.8.7 recommended) since it appears to be the most compatible with the newer ROMs
Your choice though

That was the best idea. I did a factory wipe, didnt install a stock rom, and as you suggested flashed TWRP 2.8.7, and now works just fine, hell it even fixed some other issues I had been having. Thanks, much appreciated.

SM-A500FU Bloatware and stable custom ROM

Hi guys!
I have SM-A500FU and I'm using stock ROM 6.0.1 rooted. First I want to remove some system apps but I'm not sure on what to remove and what to keep. Do you have any suggestions on what is safe to remove?
Also I've seen that there is not any stable and full working android 7 ROM (correct me if I'm wrong) Is there any good 7 ROM out there?
Sorry if my questions are stupid but I'm trying not to brick my phone.
Thanks!

You can try the Resurrection Remix Nougat 7.1.1 Rom for your Galaxy A5 Sm-A500FU.
Resurrection Remix ROM
It was made for the SM-A500H but it will work with the "FU" too.
I installed it on my SM-A500FU two weeks ago without any problems.
The only thing is that NFC doesn´t work. But I don´t need it.
I hope this is " stable and full working " enough for you because i did not found a better Rom with Android 7.
If you want a more stable ROM with Android 8 you should try this:
LineageOS 15 ROM
You can remove every Google App from you Phone like Hangouts or GMail.
You can try my Lineage 14.1 ROM, which is android 7.1.2 nougat.
It is designed for a500fu
Lineage 14.1
The ROM is very stable and suitable to be a daily driver. Some features like NFC I haven't tested but should work, I only built this yesterday
Also if there are bugs please tell me.

Has anyone managed to get any custom ROM to work on a SM-A405FN/DS ?

Hello !
Has anyone actually managed to get any custom ROM to work on a Samsung Galaxy A40 SM-A405FN/DS ?
Mine is currently running the current latest stock ROM (SM-A405FN_2_20211030045838_jg43vcqbiw_fac) downloaded with Frija and I managed to install TWRP from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-a40-teamwinrecoveryproject-3-6-x-unofficial.4364575/
However, ANY custom ROM that I try to install :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/a11-r-arm64-a40-lineageos-18-1-unofficial-by-kevios12.4335409/
https://sourceforge.net/projects/eurekaroms/files/Samsung/A40/R/lineage/
GSI
maybe others that I forgot
will either bootloop or end up with a black screen.
Looking at the following threads, I'm starting to wonder if the SM-A405FN/DS is custom-ROM-compatible at all ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/help-my-a405fn-wont-boot-any-custom-rom.4337041/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-a40-black-screen.4354421/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-a40-infinite-loop-impossible-to-turn-on.4337343/
Im running CrDroid 7.13 without any issues with root and gapps. Many custom roms bootloop because of your newer firmware with Bit/SW REV.
Security Patch Lvl. being 4 and those custom rom were built on the older firmware with probably patch level 3. I had installed DotOS fan edition fully working like a year ago, then I tried some new custom roms, which somehow broke my system so the system couldnt start up even after reflashing original boot image, so I reflashed to the newest firmware which was working, then I tried flashing older one and it wouldnt boot, it just shows black screen with error bit/sw 3 boot 4. So you have to flah roms, whose are built on the newer bit level to boot up, the best is CrDroid and now the newest ALT-F4 version 0.0.3 from this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-oneui-3-1-a40-alt-f4-v0-0-1-updated-2021-12-18.4373813/
I tried it myself and it is the best for this phone, it is fully debloated and pre-rooted stock rom. I also tried CrDroid 8x, everything works for me, but it fells slow and the ram is almost maxed out. I also recommend upgrading to this TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-official-twrp-for-galaxy-a40-a405fn.4025587/
The unofficial twrps had some bugs for me. I hope this helps and happy flashing!
THANK YOU for your comprehensive reply !! I'll give ALT-F4 a try as soon as I can !

Good luck!
Well, luck has not been enough: after updating TWRP to the official version, I tried yesterday to install ALT-F4 0.0.3 but got the exact same result: black screen, need to reflash the stock ROM to make it boot (even to recovery !!) again.
Would you have any other idea ?
EDIT:
I actually tried crDroid in the past, to no avail either.
