anything available in the root department yet? or the knox removal for that matter?
not a big deal what languages are available though, more concerned about the root and knox, but gonna flash the rom itself tonight to see if dutch is available as well.
It's only just out so nothing custom yet. I've messaged wanam requesting him to work his magic. Hopefully things will start rolling soon.

it takes a while to get their touchwiz working completely for a huge list of different devices and in all fairness 4.4 came not that long after 4.3
as soon as samsung manages to deliver 4.4 with touchwiz, google has released a new android version again so samsung will always be lagging behind
too bad the camera in aosp roms isn't compareable to the stock samsung one otherwise i would've been on 4.3 aosp or 4.4 already as well, its one of the only things actually holding me back of flashing aosp roms ^^ (also sound in some roms is kinda low by default)

his xposed module works in 4.3 roms though ^^ been using it on the skynote 3 rom
but i'm gonna flash the stock rom later today and wait till there's root and such, untils it becomes available. don't believe its impossible to revert back to 4.1.2 stock if i want rooted stuff ^^
Anyone knows is there a stock Stock 4.3 TW for Korean variant？

don't think so honestly, otherwise people would've succesfully done that with the skynote 3 from the at&t thread
also no root available yet, but as soon as root becomes available, you can use devilkernel,
currently i'm using skynote3 (at&t leak) with devilkernel ^^ but rather have the official as i reckon that one is more bugfree than a leaked rom ^^
you could try if the skynote3 rom is more to your liking, it works (mostly) but there are some bugs present, it has root and no knox.
Can this ROM be installed on a Korean Note 2 (e250s) with a boot converter?
I mean if I can use N7105 modem?
Thanks.

As far as i know,the converter is only used for AOSP.Can it be worked for TW?
i only need root for "greenify" and filemanager. but i definitely need recovery.
most the apps i use dont really need root. but i wouldnt want a non rooted phone. funny enough

what's android kitchen? still got around 30 min left on the download but could look into the android kitchen stuff.
my rom officially is from t-mobile netherlands, but i do not specifically need a t0ltetmo rom as the only thing different for my device when flashing my stock rom is the t-mobile apps and the boot screen from them.
its not like i have a special contact app like AT&T has or anything like that in my stock rom.
GT-N7105 (t0lte) is the one i'm normally aiming for, the rom released for nordic countries doesn't look carrier specific to me either. reckon the only thing that i do need root for is the language enabler, don't know if netherlands is unlocked as a locale by default. I did run stock unrooted rom the last few weeks until someone pointed out last week the at&t 4.3 leak worked on the 7105 models as well, so i got myself root again and installed it. I don't really run any other apps that require root normally.

i've tried the first omnirom 4.4 when it got released but the camera didn't function at all for me, later i read up and noticed that most 4.4 issues where related to twrp recovery, flashing with cwm 6.0.4.1 should've worked but was already playing with skynote by then
its not just quality though, its the fact that samsung has a built in anti-shake option, and i can't seem to get steady shots without it, my hands are shaking a little bit and i can't seem to keep my device steady enough without it. (haven't seen that option in the aosp camera's)
camera worked on 4.3 aosp roms for me, but i didn't like the quality from those, and again the shaking of the hands didn't help either

as far as i read up (including the thread it linked to for the 7105 and such) you need to be rooted in order to flash the rom after you customized it with the kitchen.
as the kitchen creates a flashable zip and not an odin flashable file.

You can make a poll I guess?
For me, I cannot justify the benefit of custom rom + 720p video vs. a fully-working excellent-battery-life modified stock with 1080p video capture
Moto Defy has even more roms and a locked bootloader imposible to unlock. I have a p768 and im really enjoying cm10.1.3. Its a lot better than stock in many ways.

me too. CM is a beautiful and stable rom. I hope in future someone will fix 1080p recording...
I am not debating the value of stock vs. custom roms guys. I have a rooted G1 and an HD2 and about 4 more rooted devices so I know the value of rooting. I was only wondering about custom roms for the L9 since all I read is issue after issue with rooting and devs leaving this phone for a different one.
I'm one of the lucky few.

There's at least one reason I can easily pick a custom ROM over stock: no emulated storage with apps to sd . well I guess that's two reqsons. Please, the CM 10.1 ROM for P769 is daily driver material.. I would say stock is less functional..

The phone is great, but LG locking up the bootloader killed it for everyone. Tho I was lucky enough to have an unlockable one I still may just consider switching to another device. The trouble with the bootloader is enough to slow down progress and that alone is a good enough reason to convince me to find something better. I'm not considering LG unless my next option is the G2 or N5. I'd even be content with an N4.

I must have been lucky. I downloaded lgpwn.apk and ran that on the phone and whala in like 2 minutes my phone was rooted. Then i installed supersu and busybox. I havent installed a custom rom yet because i am happy with the stock rom but i wanted to get rid of some of the bloatware and i am happy to have link2sd working so i can offload some apps to the sd card.
If requested i can supply the file i used but i imagine its not hard to find.

i think your confusion root with unlocked. we can mod the stock rom and we so. but its all done by hand by you not simply flashing a new one and no updates will work you will need to reflash stock non rooted using the tools hear. you will be stuck with the rom you have when they quit updating the device. i agree don't think i will be buying another lg phone but a nexus 5 because nexus products are easily unlocked etc by one simple adb command.
I have a question. @Lelus, @leolawliet, @kuma82, is there any way to package a ROM as a KDZ and flash using the offline flash method? Or is that a ridiculous thought?

We can't do custom roms without a custom recovery (cmw or twrp). I don't think custom recoveries are available yet. Unless you know something I don't (and that's very possible since I don't know much - lol).

Do you have a metro pcs mega? And if so, did you odin flash twrp on your phone?
I want to be sure before I try because I bricked my metro pcs mega the day I bought it and never got it back working. I had to go back to MetroPCS and get another one. I do not plan on bricking the one I have now. I don't want to take a chance until I know I can recover it from a soft brick.
Without having a firmware that can be flashed in odin, I'm scared to try anything.

Yes I have the Mega from Metro Pcs. That's why posted the link to the other thread.
Yeah, I rooted and and installed the recovery than was like hmm probably shouldn't have done that with out there being a firmware release but oh well. I'm wild that way.
I instilled it through Odin. the only file from that link I used was this one.. http://goo.gl/J5JAH0
Tested Working 100%
I downloaded the attached file, put phone into download mode and flashed the recovery via odin 307. I fully booted the phone and then shut it off to reboot into recovery which is now replaced with TWRP.
Now to see if I can find a lighter ROM something like extremesperia. I haven't seen any multi-carrier roms for this phone so I am not sure what will work.
I also used the backup feature and was able to backup the entire phone.

I wouldn't go that far tbh...I'd be somewhat cautious as at least on my note 2...there are several variants and all have the same hardware, but run into issues flashing roms incompatible to your specific device. It's kinda guess and check as I've seen i9200 which is the 3g mega intl have a few minor apk issues vs i9205 lte on my rom alone, much less larger issues like framework and data structures or kernel variances between intl and carrier based. Just heads up from someone who builds for several different devices and hardware configs. When it comes to carriers sometimes it's hard telling what the hell they're doing lol.
One thing major is for carrier based devices of any kind, the biggest thing is the modem...If you flash an intl you may lose the carrier frequency.

From what I understand, Samsung's currently testing 5.0 on the T-Mobile, AT&T, and Sprint S5's. They started it about two or three weeks ago.
Supposedly, the Note 4 / Note Edge testing will start next week.
Yeah.
Samsung looks like they are being fairly aggressive to get this update out.
I think this is another way they are trying to compete with Apple devices.
They want their updates to go through as quickly as possible.
I have no desire to update to LP personally, I enjoy the ability to customize everything about my ROM. If I didn't have a rooted phone, or want one, then sure I'd update to LP. No Xposed, and all the annoyances of having TW? No thanks.

I just saw this post and was surprised that nobody has put up a 5.0 test build. I just put one together based on the G900F Polish 5.0 release. I will upload if someone would like to test it. I have a G900A so can't test for myself.

Here is the test build. Use the latest TWRP, perform a full wipe then flash and let everyone know if it boots up. Flash at your own risk!:
G900F_NL2_Stock_Rooted_Test_ROM.zip
Im also stealthee . I will try it out soon as my phone charges here at work.

you mean to flash it on TMOBILE S5???
Yes and it did not work. It flashed just fine. It just stayed at the galaxy s5 screen and then eventually rebooted itself back into recovery mode. I even tried flashing a 4.4.2 kernel to see if it would boot .

Thanks for trying, the Sprint leak requires the 5.0 bootloader in order to boot. I suspect the bootloader is also required with this build Anyway, thanks for testing.
Ive yet to update to the NK2 but that would still be 4.4.2 and not 5. and since 5 is not out it would be impossible to update to the 5.0 BL.
I have Android 4.2 installed on my Galaxy S4. Since I rooted my phone as soon as I got it, I never got any OTA updates beyond that. But now I hear that Android 5.0 (Lollipop) is out for my device, and I want to install it. But all I can find are custom ROMs, and I don't want to install one of those as then I'll have to do a factory reset, which I just did a few weeks ago and I'd rather not have to do all the setup again.
Can someone please point me to where I can find the stock ROM update downloads? I'd like to keep root access after flashing, so let me know if there's anything special I have to do for that.
Thank you!
AFAIK, it's not out yet for our phones.

That's a shame; maybe I read wrong. That being the case, where can I find the latest one that is out?
I'd recommend this ROM, based on stock ROM with limited debloating and a few nice tweaks. There is a link in the first post to the completely stock ROM it is based on by Jkruse if you want that.

It does not have the hot spot toggle.

Actually Redflea's post is what I'm looking for. I said previously that seeing as Lollipop isn't available yet, I'd like the most recent one that is. Thanks though.

I just flashed that ROM and it seems to work perfectly! Thanks a lot!
EDIT: Does anyone know how to mark this as resolved? I'm new here.
Posting this here in case anyone else is looking for the same thing and finds this thread: Lollipop is out now, and someone has posted what I originally asked for here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ment/rom-i545oc1-5-0-1-100-stock-mdk-t3097902
I haven't tested it though; I'm waiting for one that's been modified in the same way as the one posted earlier in this thread. If anyone knows where I can find one, please post the link!
Does anyone know if there is a lollipop rom for SGH-i527M or if Samsung plans to officially release one? I prefer a stock one without touchwiz. Is there one anywhere??

No dev is working on Mega anymore, I guess. It's interesting because even my old and mundane Huawei Y300 was easily rooted and now can run lollipop 5.1, but not my Mega I527M!!!
Ok, well is there a rom that exists? Or can someone make one? Or can one from a different device like a nexus 6 work on this phone?

Custom ROMs exist, a couple of them actually, but you have to be very careful. Which version is it 4.2.2 or 4.4.2?
I'm looking for lollipop. Is there one available anywhere, or one for another phone that might work with mine??
There is Paranoid Android verion 5.0 Alpha online and works with my i527m, the only problem is gapps doesn't work, I had previous 4.2.2 rom custom with apps working and update to this one, I have the message unfortunately play services has stopped, I am trying to fix wit no success, because I already download different apps packages from google, cyanogen and other sources and doesnt work.
if somebody have a solution send me a private message please.

To root I just installed this rooted stock firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-mega/development/rom-rooted-stock-4-4-2-i527mvlucne5-t2917868. You have to use Odin to install this rooted firmware, its not hard you just follow the instuctions in the post
And for recovery I am using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588661. I also used odin to install it to my phone, it took about 10 seconds
And then you can flash any rom for you device. Have fun

I installed Validus-lollipop on i527m and it actually works.
The only problem was the extreme battery drain. Like 1% ---> 1m 7 sec if using wifi or lte.
The solution is easy (use GSam battery monitor): there was a bad kernel wakelock.
If you don't use your mega for touchless paying, just delete NFC.
Find com.android.nfc. Force stop it. Delete cashe/data. Remove. Reboot phone.
how to instal?
and make me sure it gonna work my friend
please
