I have a ZE550KL still stock and don't want to root it until I can find a way to build a pre-rooted stock ROM so I can keep root but also update or downgrade versions as I like.
I also have a Sony Z3 and a Samsung S3 and both are quite easy to build pre-rooted stock ROMs, especially the Sony with PRFCreator. Now we have the TWRP recovery, flashable SuperSU zip and stock ROMs, is there any way to create a flashable pre-rooted stock ROM?
you may use pre rooted patched firmware

you do not need to unlock your phone.
just follow instructions, latest firmware is in same link.
you may download any version you wish.

Yes I know I can flash your patched firmware but I was hoping that after the initial root that I want to be able to create my own pre-rooted stock firmware. At present I always have to wait until you post an updated patched firmware.
Hi,
i want to buy a new note 4 - the version 910f.
If i update the new phone with stock 4.4.4 rom to the latest 5.1.1 - will there be any problem if i want to install root or anything like this later on? Can i still install custom roms?
I want to now this, becqause if i update my new amazon fire 7 (2015) to latest stock 5.1.1 rom - there is no chance to start recovery anymore for installing custom rom. With only 5.0.1 all is good and i can install custom rom with recovery.
Is there a similar problem with note 4 or can i install latest stock rom and won´t get any problems later?
Only thing i found is that i can´t go back to 4.4.4 when installing 5.1.1? And i can´t go back to 5 when i´m installaing marshmallow because of changing partitions size?
So if i go to stock 5.1.1 it doesn´t matter, because i don´t want to use 4.4.4 and i can still use all stock roms and change to marshmallow later?

No problem if you don't plan to use 4.4.4. Note that if you update to latest 5.1.1
>your bootloader will be locked you can't go back to previous roms or use custom roms which are based on earlier versions such as 4.4.4 custom roms or 5.0.1 custom roms.
>you can still root your phone install custom recovery and install custom roms which have newer bootloaders. However rooting 5.1.1 is bit different because with android 5.1.1 there is an extra security layer in the kernel which detects and stops device from being rooted you need a "permissive kernel" to root 5.1.1. And then you can do whatever you like.
Would it be a better decision to stay on 5.0.1 for the moment and later install 5.1.1 custom rom? To not loose unlocked bootloader?
And one more question: if I deactivate bloatware in application setting off stock rom, is bloatware complete deactivated or is it still running in the background somehow?

You can install 5.1.1 with these bootloaders coj3, coi3, pok1 , coh4 these are safe and won't lock your bootloader. i'd recommend 5.1.1 over 5.0.1 because the difference is day and night in long term use (when u have many apps) 5.1.1 is much smoother and better battery life just don't install coj5 or newer bootloaders. I don't use custom roms because in my experience stock rom is the best custom roms have some bugs etc. If you deactivate bloatware in application settings then its no more running in background.
OK, thank you. But so I should deactivate ota updates and flash latest stock update with Odin, so that I don't get latest locked bootloader?
How can i update to latest 5.1.1 update and keeping the (old) unlocked bootloader?
Do i have to donwload version from smamobile and flash with odin? How can i disallow to update bootloader too?
And if i update with ota - i will get latest (locked) bootlader automatically - no chance anymore to remove it?
-----------------------------
I don´t want to root my phone the first time (because of knox) but later on i maybe want to root too.

There is no way to be sure if the older bootloader will work with latest 5.1.1 rom. So its better to stick with the bootloader which comes with the rom and yes if you update with OTA you will get latest 5.1.1 and bootloader automatically. Just go to sammobile and download 5.1.1 with COJ3, COi3, or POK1 (nordic countries). and Flash with odin.
I've tried smartdebloater with no luck as I delete all the files I do not need build rom and when I flash everything is still there.
How do I Debloat a rom before I install it via Odin ??
Thank you
Hi.
Anyone suceeded in extracting the Firmware and Boot.img to directly make a rooted Stock Firmware?
If not. Which tols are needed.
Made this long time ago for Xperia devices.
Thx
Hi guys,
Been a while since I posted here. Bought my phone 910c brand new when it came out and just rooted it so I could modify the DPI. I still have the stock rom etc as I prefer to have stability.
Now I'm sort of getting bored still on KitKat and want to update the firmware.
First step I took was to make the phone "official" in wanam and then download the update ota. This didn't work as there was an android with belly open and triangle.
Now I'm thinking I will update via Pc Samsung kies. Will this work? And will I still have root access to change the DPI or do I need to reroot afterwards?
Thanks.
Updated via kies last night then had to root again.
Does anyone know how I can change the DPI for the stock apps back to 640?
Since I'm on stock rom xposed is not recommended for marshmallow?
One sure and safe way to update your firmware is via PC Odin. Just download your official firmware from Samfirmware website. MM is best in my opinion.
You can root your phone afterwards and install Xposed by Wanam, not the official Xposed zip file.
