I've tried all the ported roms for the one max and they all are making my phone lag a lot and take all the memory for running, so I just wanna return to the stock
I installed a stock rom and it worked perfectly well except that it was made for the Chinese dual sim variant and so the sim card wasn't recognized..
So now I'm stuck with a phone with no sim card, if anyone here have the stock rom (rooted or not) please upload it here or pm it to me
Thanks!
EDIT: it doesn't have to be a Lollipop rom, any stock rom would be great.

There are a variety of these in the Development forum here. I could send you links, but you haven't said whether your Sprint, Verizon or other, so take a look there. It's only 4 pages. You should be able to find something. I'm assuming, of course, that you're bootloader unlocked and S-OFF.

I bought a used used phone rooted with slimbean on it. I did manage to update through TWRP and really like that rom so far. I'll present an app in a few days and want to use an mhl hdmi adapter to project the app on a screen. It seems there's a driver issue and slimrom wont ever support the adapter. So I need to install the stock firmware for the presentation and want switch back after and would like to keep twrp. I could also dual boot it and that would be even better, but does the stock rom supports it ?
Since I know how to use twrp, that would be the simplest way to install the stock rom, How can I do that ?
Is it possible to dualboot the stock firmware ? How can I do that ?
Thanks,
Kristian
EDIT: I have a SGH-I747m (canada) and don't know which stock rom I should use, I don't know the original carrier. I looked on sammobile but you need to know your carrier to find it's original rom.

Will this custom ROM unlock the phone?
I have bought this phone from T-Mobile, but chose the wrong option when buying (not the unlocked one) and now the only way I could find to unlock the phone would be paying for the network unlock code (around $30).
Would anyone know if by flashing this ROM it will unlock the phone to use another carrier's SIM card?
Any other option on how to unlock the phone using another method would also be greatly appreciated.
No, the custom ROM will not unlock the phone

Already found the answer to my own question. I flashed the custom ROM to the locked phone and tried to place a SIM card in it, but still get the Invalid SIM card message and it requests the network unlock code.
I can also say that kitkat metropcs twrp backup works on the Univision variant and it works with a sim card from another country, thanks!!
EDIT: This ROM won't unlock your phone, this is another part of the device that is not dependant on the rom, to unlock you'll need an unlocking box like z3x, or pay for an imei unlock code, mine could be unlocked with 13 dlls from unlockscout, samsungs made in china.

Phone is now unlocked and updated to Kit Kat
Indeed, the part of the phone responsible for the network lock is not messed with by the custom ROM or the update to Kit Kat method, but I actually found a way to unlock without a z3x box or having to buy the unlock code online.
The phone I was trying to unlock is a friend's phone, but I have my own phone and it was bought already unlocked, and is the same model. The trick here was to find out that the network code lock was part of the EFS partition. I made a full backup of my phone (unlocked) through TWRP and restored it in my friend's phone. It did unlock. Then it was just a matter of resetting to factory defaults and performing the procedure to update to Kit Kat and it now is unlocked and updated. \o/

Heres my question, if the phone is from tmobile how did you get kitkat? Unless you did it with the METRO backup
cm version
Thanks. Looking forward for that CM ROM.
One potentially noob question: cm11 is based on 4.4 while this device is officially still 4.2.2. Would that be OK?
Yes thats why people started making xustom roms

I read somewhere that someone was trying to download KK update from T-Mobile this could be just a 4.2 update or they could be pushing it. Maybe new lights are shipping with KK as well who knows

There are many phones who are stuck on outdated firmware. Gnex, nexus s, htc mytouch 4g/slide all running kit Kat. Many many more examples. The Roms may not be stable due to various reasons (no source, outdated hardware, lack of Dev etc) it is possible
Is there a test that will show if a phone is locked or not. I hosed my efs partition a while back and had to format it, change permissions, and reset to factory default to get my Galaxy Light to boot. Does that mean that my phone is unlocked?

Yes, I did it with the MetroPCS backup. Tried to flash the kernel of KitKat straight from the T-Mobile system on 4.2.2 but it did not work.

The work I'm doing is based on the metro PCs released kernel source and device files which are 4.4. They have the same everything just different bloat from carrier.

I believe you are looking for an app that is able to test if the phone is network locked or not. I do not know of such an app. The basic test you can do is try to insert a SIM card from another operator and see if it allows it or displays the message of it being an invalid SIM, asking for the network unlock code. And you don't need to buy another SIM, just borrow a friend's, it will only take a minute...
Thanks, that's my little problem in that I don't have access to a micro or mini SIM like the one in this device.
Anyone know where the boot animation is? Or how to change it?

Greetings XDA Zombies!
Got the T399NUVUANH1 working on my T-Mobile T399. Having issues getting ViPER4Android FX drivers to work. Have BusyBox Pro and seems that it wont install property. The ViPER4 2.3 version says the drivers are installed but actually not working, and the ViPER4 4.x version I keep getting the drivers failed.
Appreciate any help.

Bummer. Think TMO watching XDA and clamping down on whatever loose ends they can bind.

Will this work on a galaxy light with Android 4.4.3? Does the build have to be the same?
Title says it all. My wife has an LG G3 on Sprint, LG-ls990, and I'd like to update it to the latest stuff for her. She's on android 5.1.1 from forever ago and for the life of me I cant find her firmware version? Hers is showing LVY48F. Can some kind soul give me some guidance?
Also, it's rooted, has TWRP and a custom ROM.
Huh...I'm on 5.0.1 still. When I unrooted from KK a month ago and went totally stock I waited for days to get past zvf and it never happened. I wonder how you wife got 5.1.1. My wife's totally stock never ever rooted G3 has been at 5.0.1 zvf for ever now and even doing a firmware update poll from her phone results in no update to 5.1.1.
Have you tried searching for the 5.1.1 rom to sideload it?
There's a newer version available but it's for 7.1. Can I flash that at the current state of the phone.

is the 7.1 a custom ROM or an official update

I'm a really overenthusiastic phone customization maniac.
So, recently I have flashed a new ROM for my phone "Alliance ROM V9" for my Samsung Galaxy S5.
It all went well and works perfectly fine except for one thing.
It doesn't let me make or receive phone calls or SMS. Then i realized that it does not recognize my SIM Card.
If someone can help me out I would really appreciate it!

You have to report this to the rom developer of the rom you're currently using, and tell the developer about the thing you experiencing. No one going to fix this except the developer of the rom.
Hi guys!
I recently bought a 2nd hand Galaxy Alpha Korean Variant (LG U+) here in the Philippines for about 130 USD. I have done several Google-ing and successfully rooted my device (after several attempts and soft-bricks). Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the compatible TWRP md5/tar file for my phone (have tried several files but no luck). May anybody provide me the right one? My device has a baseband version of G850LKLU2CPJ1 and currently running Android 5.0.2.
Secondly, can I flash an international stock ROM (e.g. the stock ROM of SM-G850F) to my device? Is this safe?
Another is that, I came across several posts mentioning that a 2500mAh battery is available for samsung galaxy alpha, will it be compatible with mine even if mine is a Korean Variant? And may anybody provide a site or shop where the extended battery may be available?
Fourth thing is that I am using an LTE sim card and I have known for a fact that 4G/LTE signals are available in my location. However, when I am using this phone, it only registers 3G connections. Are there any tweaks that I can do to use the LTE signals?
Lastly, may anybody recommend a good ROM compatible with my phone. I very much enjoy using cyanogenmod ROMS but haven't installed any because of my custom recovery problem.
Thank you very much and hoping for some positive responses.

Theres a TWRP 3.0 for korean variants made by serenityS. Do not attempt to flash ROM for G850F/M/W to your G850L it will soft brick your device. The only compatible ROMs are G850S/K/L. Its hard to find a 2500mah. You can use 4G switcher available on google playstore for switching different bands. There is no stable build for CM ROM yet, you could try the epsilROM for the mean time.

Of course you cannot flash a custom rom to the original/stock recovery manufacturers wont be liable for the damages to yoir phone due to incompatible of flashed ROMs.
1. You should root first.
2. Install custom recovery.
Galaxy Alpha (sltektt/SM-G850K). Galaxy Alpha ( sltelgt/SM-G850L). Galaxy Alpha (slteskt/SM-G850S).
Your phone variant is SLTELGT look for the thread of serenitys for TWRP 3.0 i havent tried the latest build of modpunk which 3.0.3
You can flash the above ROM jumbo alpha from twrp if you have a stock ROM. Its a debloated /system
