[Q] Which Mega do I have? - Samsung Galaxy Mega

I would like to ROM my phone, but none of the numbers discussed in this forum seem to identify mine. It says L600VPUANA7 on the software and Baseband, and the model is SPH-L600. When searching the forum for this particular Mega, which Mega version am I looking for?

Repeat after me "Google is my friend".....

Okay, that's all well and good, but I'm not looking for a stock firmware. I'm trying to ROM my phone, and every ROM I look for lists things like GT-I9200/I9205. Is this ostensibly the same phone? I've googled it plenty. I just want to know what is safe to install, but no one includes L600 in their descriptions.

Ask in the thread of the ROM you're interested in.
But really, ROMs that support are scarce. The only ROM I've seen that claims to support L600 by default is CM12.

Thank you. CM is my favorite. I'll wait until 12 leaves beta. I was trying to get in on 11, but I'm glad that there's hope with 12.

P506 ATT Thrive

I picked up a used Thrive for my wife. It looks like most of the talk hear is about the P500.
Is that specific instructions for root the P506? I've also searched P506 for a custom ROM, but don't see may options.
Do custom ROMs exist for the P506?
thanks.
Only optimus one that can use p500 ROMs is the T-Mobile variant so your out of luck :/

ICS or JB for Galaxy Player 4.2??

Can someone port an ICS/JB ROM onto the Galaxy Player 4.2 (YP-GI1)? I really want to update my software, the 4.0/5.0 both have ICS on it and it would be great if my device could have it too, Thanks!
Development is still small. You are going to have to wait because I believe no one hasn't build a custom rom yet.

ICS porting worked chronologically:
The SGP 5.0 was the first to have working ICS ports and it took months before the Bluetooth bug was fixed.
Several months after 5.0 ports stabilized, some developers ported it to the SGP 4.0.
I suspect it worked this way, because there are a larger number of SGP 5.0 owners, hence leading to more output.
And, if my suspicions are correct, then it is going to be a very long while before the SGP 4.2/3.6 see any ports respectively, as I suspect that the number of people who own those devices is smaller yet.
It is feasible, but that would mean that a lot of our devs here who have done successful ports to the 4.0/5.0 would need their own SGP 4.2/3.6 to test their builds and ports on. And, I just don't see them spending money on an already under-supported device.
But, who knows? Crazier things have happened here on the SGP forums.
Is anyone working on this device? I have seen someone on the CyanogenMod Forums say that they have ICS on it but it's very unstable. Of course I can't believe that... But people got a root working using Odin3. If there is any developer that has this device and seeing this post, please.. reply! Thanks
Check this out
did it to my sons 4.2 player,he loves the rom. Check out this thread it has everything you need to upgrade-----http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884071--- READ and good luck!!

Being rooted is a state of existence. You can add it or take it away at your disposal. Being rooted just means that you have the Super User binaries installed on your device. You un-root by uninstalling those binaries. Flashing a ROM with or without root simply means that the ROM you flashed has or doesn't have those binaries.
So, if you flash a rooted ROM over your currently rooted ROM, that's OK. That simply means you have older or newer binaries on your device. (And, yes. You can update Super User binaries.)
there is a rooted gingerbread stock rom, but I believe the dev that made it doesn't even have a 4.2 and had to rely on others to test it, even the 4.0 has a very small number of devs on it, and half the ones we've had in the past have moved on to newer devices. I doubt there will be any ICS/JB goodness for the 4.2 simply because there are no devs that actually own one, atleast as far as users on here go, maybe some guy somewhere might be working on it but they sure aren't here.
Yeah I used that exact ROM anyway to get the rooted gingerbread ROM but thanks anyway

Does anybody know when developers might actually try a ROM for this device?

can you flash htc rom on galaxy s2?

I was wondering if I can launch HTC ROM on my galaxy s2
If I can how can I do it? Is it like normally flashing a custom ROM or does it need more?
I'll give you a dollar if you try it.
(In other words, no. Questions like this show a complete lack of understanding around how smartphone firmware works, but given how few people RTFM these days, doesn't entirely surprise me. There has been talk of Sense being ported to the S2 on here from time to time, I don't have any links & don't know if it's been done as it doesn't interest me (use XDA search/Google) because If I wanted a HTC phone, I'd have bought one.)

I second that offer.
There is a ported ROM named sense 4.0 I think... Just search for it on xda and you'll find what you want

Here is the sense port however it is still in alpha stage and is full of bugs. You could also flash a rom with the built in theme chooser like CM10 and use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...um=organic&utm_term=google+play+sense+4+theme

Best/most supported smartphone.

Hi, I have a HTC One S. I can't complain about the phone but there aren't a lot official ROMs for this cellphone. On the new website of aokp isn't any ROM for the one s anymore, cyanogenmod has only cm10 stable and some 10.1 nightly and there is screen tearing, too. Or for example Ubuntu touch isn't avaible. Or a super nexus ROM. Or miui 5.
So my question is what is a good supported but also powerful smartphone?
Only Nexus devices get the most development support. Get a Nexus 4...
Sell it and equip yourselves with a nexus you won't start a thread like this again - for nexus something new pops up everyday
OK and any other devices? Maybe for people who are reading this thread and dont like nexus?

If you don't like nexus don't worry you will also able to use latest android resources.
But you need to search in google that how to make a own custom rom

The Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, and Galaxy Note II all have great developer support, the US market versions of these phones have even better developer support but the International versions are great too. The Xperia Z is another phone with great developer support as well. All of these devices have official Cyanogenmod support, and AOKP support (Except for the Galaxy S4 which at this moment doesn't have official AOKP) support.

Thank's but I'm a bit worried to make it myself. If it would be that simple why aren't there more roms ?

Its not simple but these days there are tutorials on compiling/debugging that makes life easier for newbies wanting to take first steps into aosp development
Bro making a rom is hard for us but not impossible.
You just need to learn how to port rom's from another device and how to modify your stock kernel to work properly in your custom rom.
Don't forget that the nexus/cm rom makers are also a human like us.
Try to search in Google.com

Anyone know a s4 zoom (4.4.2) compatible Custom Rom?

Im looking for a s4 zoom sm-c101 on 4.4.2 custom rom, are there any that work out there?
I've been trying to find one all across the internet but with no luck at all and I'm also trying to make an AOSP ROM for this device but I'm no Dev in any shape or form so progress is.... Slow
I learn the process as I go and I've hit a major problem getting the blobs for this device but I hope maybe a dev might get this device one day.

i've been waiting a long time (had this device over a year now still no rom) i wish there at least was some rom like Cyanogenmod or Carbon rom which would support it i don't dare to install the S4 Mini version of Cyanogenmod yet don't know what it would do to my device
I've already checked and the s4 mini runs a different chipset and flashing cm for s4 mini will most likely end in the phone being bricked so I would advise not to flash under any circumstance.
