What's the best rom or roms to flash to the Galaxy S4 Active I537 version 4.2.2? Can you provide links as well? I have safestrap as well.
The bootloader is locked on the i537, so there is no easy way to flash. There is a workaround called safestrap. Check the thread in the general section. It should answer all of your questions.

Best rom threads turn into arguments and as XDA is not a support site, users are expected to read and do their own research into what suits them best.

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this question had been asked many times before but I cannot find the answer.
I have a Galaxy Note from Telus (model I-717D) and I want to root and flash custom rom on it. The problem is I'm not sure if the method by dr.ketan will work for my carrier branded phone :

And one last question, will custom roms in Android Dev section work on my note ? Or do they only work for the international version GT-N7000 ?
Many thanks.

Your NOTE is not compatible with anything here in this forum. You need to search the ATT NOTE Thread as your device is related to that device.
DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING FROM HERE OR YOU WILL KILL YOUR DEVICE!!! This includes the Rooting Procedure, etc...

Please post in the correct forum, this is for the international note, you want the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717
Hi there,
I have a rooted international s4a lte with I9295XXUAMF5. As I have some problems with latency on edge, I was wondering, if I could "simply" upgrade to, say, MF7.
1) Do I need the right version for my provider? (Vodafone Germany, "DBT") or can I download any MF7?
2) Which versions are safe to upgrade without getting KNOXed?
3) I read in some custom rom-threads that special modems need to be flashed. Can I flash some other modem over my MF5 or are these modem files so special that they only work with some special roms?
Thanks for your help and patience (coming from a galaxy nexus and things are a little more complicated now...)

You guys have the a3 bootloader? If not you can restore to mj5 then search thread for the method to get to official kk. If you have a3 look at carl1961 thread or try samsung experience at your nearest bestbuys if they have fw already. Also post in q and a section.
You can get the OTA zip from this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701062 (thanks to mazdamiata210).
We do not currently have a ODIN version of NC2 (Official ATT Kitkat).
Please remember that all questions go in the Q&A section.
I will be asking a MOD to move this for you.

I need help rooting 4.4.2
I lowered my firmware as low as 4.2 but i ran into serious errors and bugs when installing really old outdated recoveries as well as custom roms so im now on 4.4.2 instead of 4.4.4 as i dunno what's the highest available version that can be indeed rooted can someone help me on how do i get myself on 4.4.4 with root successfully as theres no real guides here to help me, ive read enough guides telling me i'm able to root 4.2,4,3 but not 4.4 or higher
I hope someone can suggest my next step to getting rooted is as im just after unlocking and installing recovery just now to now realise i may actually have to download again to a even lower firmware
You can easily root 4.4.4 with easyroot tool available here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784900
Don't need to downgrade anymore.

Hi all,
After a long time I'm back on Android en back on XDA. I have no experience with current android rom and rooting. I would like to ask a few questions about my this. I've searched on the forum but I can't find any answers, I think because my questions are too basic for users that post questions here.
I would like to have stock android or another ROM (like LineageOS) with no Gapps or only Gapps that I want (for example YouTube of the gmail application).
Is rooting still necessary for installing another ROM.
Can I root and install the januari update from the ROM forum en stil update over the air?
Are there any other ROMS available other then the 1 ROM I see posted on the ROM forum.
Is LineageOS available for this Phone?
What are the disadvantages when updating to the januari ROM in ROM forum.
I hope you all can help me. My previous Phone was a Nokia 930 (Windows Mobile) and before that I had a Samsung Galaxy S2 which I rooted and installed a multitude of ROMs on.
With kind regards,
me

Hi
Currently there are no 3rd Party roms for the Nokia 8 as there is no bootloader unlock available, so,it cannot be rooted.

You need to unlock the bootloader to install a new ROM and there is no unlockable bootloader so neither installing a new ROM nor rooting the phone is possible atm. And that ROM you saw in forum is not a ROM it is flashable firmware.
