I have a note 3 that has a Sp1 bootloader with m13 baseband and the bootloader is unlocked or might not b now and rooted with twrp. What do i need to do as far as flashing a good custom rom with aroma. Preferably not a port.

Kool,
I am not a super expert but wanted to at least toss you a few ideas. Its great that you still want to keep life with your Note 3! I suspect that your bootloader is still unlocked if you are running TWRP still.
I think the best thing you want to do is ODIN into your phone, now if you wan to use Aroma you want to make sure you have TWRP 2.7.8 since I hear TWRP 3.0 and up isn't compatible.
I am writing to you from memory but if you search this thread you can find the flashable ROM from midevil that seems to be highly reviewed and I believe it is using Aroma as an installer.

What recovery do we need to use to flash roms? Do we need to use the recovery that has auto loki? I just want to flash the debloated rom for now.
Thanks
Use the twrp downloaded from the goo.im app. Works great, just have to be rooted and your good to go

Loki is a tool for the rom and custom recovery developers. As a consumer of roms you just need to make sure the rom you use has mentioned it has loki applied (and have a loki patched recovery such as TWRP). So yes, built in to what you would use.
I know one recovery was also modified to auto-loki flashed roms? Haven't tried that yet (and all roms are already loki'd right now I believe). May become more common later?

Loki is the only way to boot up a ROM at this point till a bootloader unlock happens (If it happens). But its great, lots of development already. Even AOSP roms are running pretty stable already, very encouraging.
Hello
I have a few questions about the hole "thing" cause this is my first android phone and on apple there was just the option jailbreaked or not jailbreaked
My first question is about the bootloader.
since i was reading the thread "[FULL ROOT] Community RootKit! (ASEC vulnerability) {v01} [20140615]" i am asking me why should i unlock my bootloader when im able to get root without doing this?
Is there any special point for wich i need the unlocked bootloader or is it just written for the people who unlocked there bootloader already?
Then to second question is about the sequence.
Am i right when i
1. get root
2. install cwm or twrp
3. install custom rom?
by the way: is there any huge difference between twrp and cwm? because at the table "Kernels" there is the TWRP for the Xperia T2 Ultra and an unofficial version and from CMW is an unofficial version too? Wich should i use?
and my last question is should i wait for version 2 of the RootKit or are there just small differences?

Bootloader unlock is required to install Custom kernels like DOOMLORDS kernel. In case if you dont want that then no need to unlock BL.
Just follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784757 to get root on Locked Bl and then revert back to .402

hi manu44,
first thank you for the answer.
but it is possible to root and use an custom rom with an locked bootloader or?
is there a away to do it step per step?
i mean first root with rootkit, then later install an custom rom ? or do i need to do it all at one time ?

A custom ROM is different from a custom kernel. Some custom ROMs do not require custom kernels (because they use stock kernel), but others do. So it really depends on the custom ROM that you want to use. Instructions and requirements will be posted in the respective ROM thread.
But if you want to use a custom kernel, then you will need to unlock the bootloader first.
And obviously, if you want to flash a custom ROM that needs custom kernel, then you will have to unlock your bootloader first.
Even if you want to flash a custom ROM that does not require a custom kernel, you need to first root the phone with the RootKit. Because flashing custom ROMs is usually done via recovery, and recovery installation requires root.
Hope the above is not too confusing.

So just to be sure.
I Run the toolkit for root
Then i take twrp or cwm
And then i flash a custom Rom wich use stock kernel
And that can i do with a locked bootloader?
What can be different in an other kernel?

Yes, run Rootkit, install recovery (TWRP/CWM) and then you can flash custom ROM which uses stock kernel.
Custom kernels allow functions such as overclocking, undervolting, etc.

Or you can use the toolkit on .55/.69
Then follow Nuts thread and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784757

then i have 2 new questions
1. How can i downgrade my phone ? just download the fw and use flashtool?
got an iphone till now and there it was a hard work to do it ..
2. is there any difference between locked and uinlocked bootloader? i mean in the point of restoring so that i have my warranty back?
1. There's now an even easier way to root the 402 firmware that does not require you to downgrade first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784900
But note this post, where you have to change something in the install.bat file for it to work on the Z2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53480221&postcount=81
2. It's a little more work if your bootloader is unlocked and you want to relock it before sending it to the service centre. You need to have your TA backup before doing so. If your bootloader is locked, you just have to remove root via SuperSU before sending it in for service.
Hey guys,
Im new to HTC One. I have Tmobile version running on stock sense 6. I wanted to install a custom stock rom without the Tmobile Bloatware.
I know how to unlock the bootloader using HTC Dev method and install recovery to root. But i am a bit confused about S-Off. I have read that S-off will not work with Hboot 1.57.0000
So my questions are
1. Do i really have to S-off to install custom roms on HTC?
2. If not can i install ROMs for the int. version on my phone ?
3. Does the CID ver/number have anything to do with unlocking and rooting?
Thanks in advance.

3. Does the CID ver/number have anything to do with unlocking and rooting? No, flashing firmware and RUU are dependent on CID.

See answers above. Just keep in mind that WiFi calling is not generally supported in the present custom roms. Make a nandroid backup of your system and save to your computer for safe keeping should you need to go back. Stuff happens!!!

Thank you for the reply. I have successfully rooted my stock rom and installed CWM recovery. And i have flashed custom kernel too.
I would now like to flash a 4.4.3 sense custom rom. I have read on some threads that the kernel wont be flashed on S-on devices. So do i have to flash a custom rom always after flashing a custom rom?
And one more thing. I currently have CWM touch recovery. I have seen lot of roms require TWRP. So my question is does the recovery image depend on the HTC variant? I have a Tmobile M7UL

It all depends on the custom rom but most have options to keep the stock kernel or chose a custom kernel in Aroma. It should explain in the OP what they are providing. As far as TWRP vs CWM, the developer will test his rom on the one that works best for him so he/she will recommend the custom recovery that doesn't cause him issues. Yes, there are specific custom recoveries for the different variants because the partition tables are different.
Hi guys
Ive just purchased the great kenzo last week
I just wanted to know how do i root my phone
It has 8.0.5.0
I wanted to know is there a way to do this so that i dont lose warranty
Also as i understand i will have to unlock bootloader to do this and for that i will have to place a request with xiaomi thus voiding my warranty
So is it possible to just root and not void warranty
Also if there are any options to install custom roms as well without losing warranty
Any help will be appreciated guys
I am from India
Anybody??
Requesting a bootloader unlock will not void your warranty
It is easiest done in this order:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP recovery
3. Flash SuperSU to root.

I think it will only work reliably on a Marshmallow based rom. So you will need to flash the latest global beta in edl mode.

I would just flash global rom, unlock bootloader and then you can flash recovery via adb. It's easier.
Just use standard TWRP or Alka.

I used Zcx twrp. It can read the encrypted data partition in Marshmallow and also disable dm-verity in the locked bootloader. You must boot into recovery immediately after flashing the ROM and before booting into MIUI or twrp will be over written.
I have not flashed other ROMs, but I did root MIUI by flashing SuperSU from twrp without any problems.

Zcx twrp has SuperSU included that you can flash. That worked for me on 6.9.29. I have since upgraded to 6.10.13. You should check out the Zcx twrp thread on the guides forum.

I tried reverting back to stable build from CM 13
I used edl to flash stable build but when i do it and boot the rom i don't have network.
But when i flash the dev build i do have network.
I remember restoring the modem in dev build from twrp backup got the network up and running earlier when i reverted back to dev build from cm
But i cannot do that for the stable build coz of locked bootloader and no twrp

From what I've read, that is a general problem when you revert from a MIUI mm based ROM to a lollipop ROM. There are several threads on how to solve the problem.

I think you'll have to search for the threads here or on the MIUI forums. I don't remember the full procedure, but I think it involves flashing an older version of the developer ROM before flashing the stable ROM. I have not done it myself. Xiaomi even warns in the MIUI forums that reverting to the stable Lollipop ROM from the LL developer ROM is difficult.
Good luck.

Good news. I'm glad it worked out.
Can this even be accomplished ?
I am not very phone savvy. I have spent a ton of time reading (apparently) questionable directions/suggestions on what to do.
My ultimate goal was to flash some (any) form of LineageOS on this phone.
I have the USB drivers etc installed (I did manage to root the phone).
I have downloaded Odin (two versions : 3.09 which did not work and 3.14.14 which scared me with warning about deleting my google account...)
I was trying to flash TWRP-3.3.1-0jfltevzw.img.tar (and 3.3.0) obtained from the TWRP website.
I get Write FAIL! (Auth) error very early on.
I have NOT unlocked the bootloader (Is that possible ?). There is no OEM Unlock option in my settings.
I assumed that if the TWRP website published the recovery file that it must be possible to flash it - right ?
I also assume that if I can get ANYTHING flashed to the phone then I should be able to flash some sort of LineageOS. ???
If I ever get this to work, does the TWRP recovery co-exist with LineageOS or does is TWRP wiped when you flash LineageOS ?
Am I using the wrong tool ? Should I be using Odin or something else ?
Sorry for all the questions - but these are a reflection of my mind at this point (quite jumbled).
No LineageOS or TWRP. Verizon prevents the bootloader from being unlocked. You need an unlocked bootloader to install TWRP or an AOSP custom ROM like LineageOS. Some ROMs are possible, but they will all be based on TouchWiz. If you see a ROM with an Android version of 4.x.x, it's not compatible. Only 5.x.x works once you've updated. Here is a guide and list of ROMs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...bricked-de-brick-rom-list-kernel-mod.3395833/
