I was hoping to install something like this on my device but wasn't sure if it was possible.

Hi guys,
Odd question here, but I'm running OnTheEdgeLite 3.3 ROM, but have no real need for root. As such I'm wondering if there is a way to unroot this ROM to work with Android Pay.
I have done the full uninstall of SuperSU and it still comes up with the error saying it can't validate the operating system on my device - is this because it is a custom ROM, or is there a way to get around this?
Thanks in advance.
Safety Net checks for custom rom as well as root. People have gotten different things to work at various points but Google always updates to fix those exploits.
I was afraid that might be the answer...
so i got a good deal on a s7 edge. Now im looking into installing custom rom and i guess the superman rom is the one to go for but i have a few questions..
1. is it worth it over the stock samsung rom that comes with it?
2. Does the phone need to be rooted? (I know, dumb question, but developers dont really mention it that clearly tbh)
On the installation video of the superman ROM i saw a few things come by which caught my attention and these are as follow
1.Wipe method
should i do full wipe or clean install? whats the difference?
2.CSC,
I understood u need it for VoLTE and wificalling, so choosing my right country fixes that?
3.build.prop tweaks
stock is obvious choice, but what is their advantage with no tweaks?
4. Magisk.
I understand this is rooting with keeping OTA updates, but when i want to install the rom im already rooted right?
so what i tought, when installing, i should install magisk with phh magisk root to keep the OTA updates? or do i need to do more than just that?
I know its quite a lot so im hoping somebody wants to answer them for me, it would be highly appreciated!!!
Hi,
I really really want a stock rom on my samsung tab active lte sm-t365 but i cannot find one anywhere.
There is not even a section for it on XDA.
I have manged to get a recovery but not a rom.
I have posted it here becauses the hardware is pretty much identical to the tab 4 but mods please feel free to move it if there is a better place.
Please could someone assist me in finding a rom
Thanks

Hi,
I'm bringing this up again because it matches my question perfectly.
Im new to the Android-Family and want to flash my Active Tab SM-T365 with a Custom ROM to get rid of the hole Bloatware that came with it.
Anyone has any suggestions?
Regards Nic

In my experience, it's often more stable to root the stock firmware and then remove the bloatware (using Titanium Backup or Link2SD). That way you have a rom that's tailored for the device and you don't have issues like the camera not working on custom roms, certain video codecs that aren't supported, ...
Unless there's an official CyanogenMod or LineageOS for the device.

That is what I want, but can't seem to get it done. The newest Magisk is not working. Older versions aren't. Anyone got it done? Just need root to get storage rights for external SD for Syncthing..
ok, got root working now. used the "old" way, supersu, for an old ROM..
The thing is I still have a somewhat old custom rom installed, so it's still 32-bits. Do I need to do something in particular before proceeding to flash any of the most recent 64-bits roms? Also, is it necessary to flash a 64-bits TWRP first?
I know this might actually be a silly question, but I just wanted to make sure before I end up with a bootloop or something. Thank you

Just update to the latest TWRP and clean flash any new ROM, don't just dirty flash it.
Use the official TWRP it supports both 64 and 32 bit
I recommend pixel experience and alize EAS
Hello.
First I'd like to say that i haven't ever tried anything like rooting my phone or custom roms so that you know what you're dealing with
Lately I've been bored with my s8 plus(SM-G955F). Was even considering buying a different phone but then i remembered reading about rooting and custom roms so i thought i might give it a try.
I've been reading a bit about rooting and roms but all the information and methods can be a little overwhelming for someone like me who doesn't really know what he's doing. Basically i need help.
While looking for custom rom i'd like to try i settled on renovate ice and i have some questions.
Do i need to root before flashing a custom rom or does the rom come rooted already?
From what i understand i have to start with installing TWRP with odin but what then? root or rom?
Basically if anyone would be kind enough to provide some links with steps i need to take to install that rom and root my device and not mess it up i'd be grateful.
In case you need it I'm on the latest OTA i've received.

Hello there , you do not need to root your to flash a custom rom . All you need is to backup your data for you own safety and flash TWRP recovery through Odin probram . Renovate ice is most famous and stable rom you can try . It has same UI as the stock rom . Little changes only you might wont see me . If you want to change UI you should for another rom . Also root comes with the rom inbuild, specificaly renovate ice has two options to chose, magisk or supersu . Personally i prefer Magisk before through this app ' you can' modify your system, its like xposed framework.

So I installed TWRP like in the video.
Everything seemed to work i had a clean install of stock ore with twrp. When i tried to boot into twrp i had the "only official binaries" bootloop. So i flashed a bootloader and i was stuck on galaxy s8+ screen. Went into download mode to flash stock firmware but can't do anything. Stuck in download mode and can't flash anything now... How do i get out of it?
Edit:
Ok. Found a way to flash the bootloader. now I'm back to "only official binaries" bootloop.
Edit 2:
Ok managed to get everything to work. At least it appears so for now.
Had to flash nougat firmware then installed twrp, rom and root and it worked.
I thought something went wrong because it was very laggy but after rebooting it seems okay. We'll see how it goes from here.
Gonna google it and try to fix it but if anyone has any ideas i'd be grateful
