Hey guys, I would normally try to read up on any help I can find but I feel like it would take forever
for what I want to do so any help would be greatly appreciated!
I am new to Android and I want to root the Note 4 (SM-N910T) and install a custom rom like cyanogenmod
or stock android AFTER updating the stock v4.4.4 (kitkat) to Nougat (hopefully) or even Marshmallow is fine
assuming this is possible.
I am only going to use it as a tablet, and is not connected to any carrier. Of course I need WIFI.
I want to root because I want to eliminate any chance of future lag and also get rid of bloatware.
Could you please direct me or give me step by step instructions to accomplish this? You don't have to
assume that I'm on grandma knowledge level, but if one of the steps requires that I back it up first, I would
have no idea how to do this or the best way to do it....
Any advice or opinion would be appreciated as well regarding my little project. If what I'm asking is not
possible, any suggestion on how to get rid of bloatware and lag and update to the best working android
version would be appreciated!
Thanks guys!

So I have a MACBOOK and a SAMSUNG NOTE 3.
I'm trying to find a step-by-step guide on how to root my device running currently on 4.4.2 firmware!
I found that for Mac all the job is done with Heimdall! But not sure on how to work it!
I'm a totally beginner in all these...!!! I've found only some videos, but are very bad!
I need to know the right order of installing, for the kernels, bootloaders, modems, roms, custom recoveries... where the hell I get my devices pit!!! I'm like totally lost! Only seeing all these words around and getting more and more confused!
What is needed for what reason! And all these according to mac use!
I would like to get the latest lolipop, if possible, and also root!
Ok thank you for reading me! And please, I'd appreciate any help!
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
Hey Everyone!
Carrier: Sprint
Phone: SM-G900P
Android Version: 5.0
Kernel version: 3.4.0
Root?: No but I need to be now!
(So pretty much all Stock Everything)
Experience: Baby/Noob
I have not rooted an android for about 2 years(And that was for my galaxy s2) and a lot has changed! I used to know a good amount but getting on this website instantly overwhelmed me. SOOO getting to my question
1.) What is the best rom that you have flashed?
-Doing a search I found the [MOAR] Rom but it was posted last January(and updated 08/27/2015) So it seems it would be out dated right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...om-v5-0-mod-control-floating-windows-t3016692
-Also found this one from CARBON Rom but it seems to have a problem playing media well over bluetooth(which I use constantly so that may be a problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/development/rom-carbonrom-kltespr-t3225270
- Found this one by rwilco12 it seems to be pretty much like stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...m-sm-g900p-og1-stock-rooted-deodexed-t3226240
2.) Do you have any advice for searching and finding new mods on this site? (There is just sooo much stuff)
Thanks for any help!!!
Your Biggest Fan,
CB

So I have an answer to my second question and I guess the best way is to go to the development section of your phone company.
For Sprint: http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/development
Kinda obvious but honestly for someone as dyslexic and ADHD as me I get on here and am looking for something in big bold letters with everything I am thinking at that moment. Whenever I don't see that my brain explodes and causes me to have a tiny seizure. I am all better now.
Still curious about my first question. What is the best Rom for Sprint SM-G900P in your opinion?

I'm fairly new to all of this myself, but I can only suggest flashing the rom version from Resurrection Remix group. I've had this rom on my previous device (I9300), and since I loved it so much, I decided to continue on my latest device upgrade - the SM-G900F Just follow this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-resurrection-remix-5-3-4-t3033255

Thanks for the answer man! Will this version only work for the SM-G900F or will it also work for the SM G900P?
This is my plan for now
1.) Do the CF auto root. (that way I can download titanium backup to backup all of my stuff)
2.) Format phone
3.)Then re-root with either your suggestion or the MOAR root.
Any more suggestions?
Does anyone have any more suggestions about which root I should use
or comments about my plan of action in my previous post?
Hey everyone,
BlissPop recently notified me of an updated version and so I used its integrated function to download and install it. After clicking the install-button the system was rebooted to recovery mode (TWRP) and left me standing there.
I've got following questions I hope I'll get answers on:
Do I have to repeat the flashing-procedure (like when originally flashing BlissPop the first time) in order to update it?
And wouldn't all my data be lost then?
Please excuse me for asking on such relatively basic topic for this place. :/ I am pretty inexperienced concerning Custom ROMs and would really appreciate help or much rather guidance with this, if possible. The board's search feature didn't bring up any but that might as well be because english is not my native tongue.
Anyways, I really hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
Yours
Tattva
Is there any way to get Android Lollipop on the Galaxy Core Prime SM-S820L? I have read about custom ROM's but I still don't know much about them and can't find any for this model. If anyone has found or created a way to flash a custom ROM onto this device, please let me know.

I also own this device, and unfortunately there is very limited support in the custom Rom department. If there was to be a lollipop Rom, someone would either have to port one somehow, or build it from source. Given the development rate for this device, I don't predict it happening anytime soon, sorry to say.
not going to happen
i have been trying since february the answer i got from my carier was samsung is contracted not to support this device thats why that is so hard to find samsung told me to take the device to bestbuy to force update if they could probably irrelavent but maby it helps
SM-S820L Got the Shaft!
Yup! This seems to be the future for the SM-S820L, or lack of future I should say.
I too have the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime SM-S820L. I have spent lots of hours scouring the internet looking through every android related forum in hopes of eventually finding someone that is undertaking much needed programming to build a custom ROM for this CorePrime version.
If you are looking for a custom recovery to use. I can point you to my and others posts over at Needrom. The best I can offer is an unofficial TWRP release, but it DOES work! It does for myself at least and I am no Android Guru whatsoever.
I guess I am not allowed to post Links in any of my posts yet because I am still a NOOB on these forums. I'll PM you with some direction my friend!
I cannot take credit for coming up with any of that software. I simply rooted around long enough to compile a collection of tools and files that worked for me to modify the Recovery of my SM-S820L.

I would love to help out as much as I can with modding your phone. Like I said, I'm not a proffesional but I have read up on the procedures used and been successful with my own Galaxy Core Prime:laugh:
BARE WITH ME
So, i'm probably going to get the classical sigh of hatred or upset older user's who find this to be a piece of cake to do.
This question has most likely been answered a million times before but I fail to find a thread that has anything to really do with it and I do really need help with this so i'll make this simple for you guys and bullet point it.
How do I root my Tab A
Are the on the fly rooting apps fully safe for samsung
I'm running android 7.0
My kernel is 3.18.14
Those are the few basic questions I would love to be answered and would help me out greatly!
Any information or help is better than none for me.
