ML2 SafeStrap ROM Flashing Guide!
Hello Guys!
This is my guide for flashing most galaxy S4 ROM's on ML2 without custom kernel .
•First Root your phone with this method: Root On ML2 OTA!
•Then Grab the SS.apk VERSION 3.71 Download install th app, Open it and press on install recovery Safestrap in the app.
•After that download a 4.3 ROM (For now only 4.3 and 4.2.2 work...) and the ML2 modules from here: ML2 modules
•Reboot into SS and make a new Create ROM-Slot.
•As soon as the boot partition is done click install (If it is green) and chose your ROM and flash it and then flash the Modules.
•Reboot and all done!
Lets Say I chose Hyperdrive RLS15, So I root my phone, Input SS, and download the Hyperdrive ROM, then I reboot into SafeStrap and make a new boot partition flash the ROM and after Aroma UNcheck Reboot, then flash Modules and only then reboot.
If IMEI or WiFi doesn't work try my guide: Transformix's IMEI and WiFi FIX
BUGS: Camera FC.
CAMERA FIX? <Needs testers!
Camera Patch for ML2
Just boot into SafeStrap's TWRP and flash it!

Hyperdrive rls 15 like you , you got the camera working ?
Thank for for this guide. Quick question, I have Hyperdrive SL15 with the modules and att compatability pack but after doing everything step by step I don't have data or wifi. My question is, with the imie wifi fix you posted, will that affect my stock rom? I still have data and wifi if I run stock but not Hyperdrive. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I don't want to lose my data & wifi on my stock. My phone is my only online source.

Truth is that I really don't know. Flash the ML2 models again.
I would try for you but I left Hyperdrive because it was too mushy with lots of addons everywhere.
IF modules don't work I would flash the IMEI fix for ML2.

Yeah I got the APN and that got the LTE Data working and the camera doesn't work. I know that's an ongoing issue. I also can't seem to get mms to send or receive but everything else seems to work pretty good now. Sticking with stock until I hear what other roms people get working on this.

Hi, I recently flashed Hyperdrive onto my S4A but had the obligatory cam bug as only issue afterwards for which your patch didn't seem to work with unfortunately.
hi @transformix i follow your guide and i flash a few roms all of them works but i couldn't make the camera to work . it is possible that i could flash 4.2 roms on the 4.3 bootloader? as i know from past experiences it could brick things and as im a newbie here i hadn't read enough yet to see if this could be possible im thinking about gpe rom as it at least no matter how old it is is aosp and it could make fell better than the crappy tw stock rom .
ty for your guide and nice work

I think you're confusing unlocked with rooted. A custom rom is typically rooted but you will still be locked to your carrier. To unlock you need to get a code from your carrier, they generally are reluctant to do this, or buy one on line.

How to root Rogers Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE SGH-I957R??
Hey guys,
I've been searching and searching for a way to root my Galaxy tab 8.9 lte from Rogers in Canada. The model is SGH-I957R. I have it updated to ICS so I'm hoping it's still possible, or maybe I could flash back to 3.2 and then root it but I can't find a file to let me flash it back either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I am wanting a subsidy unlock. It is alreaddy rooted you can't run dannyrom2 without it rooyed. If the only way to unlock it is by requesting code and not flashing then that's the option I only have . Unless... hoping for the clutch post....

To root, first flash this http:\\d-h.st/fqw (TWRP) in odin PDA. This will install the custom recovery. Then place this http:\\d-h.st/vjq (super SU-busybox) on your sd card in the tab. Just put it somewhere where you'll remember where. Boot into the custom recovery, hold power and vol. up until you see the samsung logo and release power while still holding vol. In custom recovery install super SU-busybox. You'll be rooted! Once on your tab open super SU and it will ask you to upgrade to the latest. All files have been tested on my i957.
That's awesome, thanks for the info. I'm about to try it right now.

Just flash the rom and then gapps in the custom recovery like you did super su. Except before flashing the rom wipe cache, dalvic, and system and factory reset. Wiping system will remove all ROMs so don't boot up before flashing your new rom. If you do you could brick your device.
And back everything up first. Factory reset will delete all your apps and settings.
PS, most custom roms are rooted so you didn't need to root your device first, just needed to install jb rom.

See nrvates building cm10. In the i957 development forum. Download the rom and gapps [Google apps]. In twrp do the wipes mentioned in my last post. Flash the rom just like you did the super su then flash the gapps (both in twrp) The last post in nrvates thread has a link to the rom. If the gapps link isn't working Google latest gapps and download one ending in something like 21011, don't remember exactly what it is. Then boot and you'll be running cm10 jelly bean.

Okay so I flashed the rom and then the gapps but it wouldn't boot properly after that, it came up saying Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 lte, and then a Samsung screen but then it was just a black screen. I can still boot back into twrp to flash something else to get it working again but I'm wondering if there's anything obvious that I may have done wrong. I wiped dalvik and cache and system and factory reset. Will this rom work on the i957r from Rogers? This is the tablet that I have. I noticed the file for the rom has att in the file name.

Truth be told nfsmw_gr told me Ktoonsez kernal would work but I was a bit apprehensive to try because the GE phone is slightly different (We all love his Kernals) so after faith and testing the 4.2.2 KT747 MFD kernal works on touchwiz so everything works now. Wifi, browser everything im typing this on the Barebones ROM. So I will be headed back to the kitchen soon and hopefully this will get some builds going with others. Have fun TOUCHWIZ WORKS

FIXED SEE ABOVE :I've flashed several TW ports and I keep running into the WiFi issue these are I9505 MGA builds I've tried different things but I am confident this has to do with the stock kernal which houses the WiFi modules and since I'm not knowledgeable on building a kernal I'm going to have to learn and I am reaching out for help in the community. That being said we have working touchwiz but the WiFi does not work and some other little bugs but for the most part I need help again with kernal and wifi
I do know about you but WiFi is a deal breaker for me
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk 2
WiFi is definitely a deal breaker. I'm unfortunately not far enough along in my Android education to help you resolve the issue. I am wondering if you've posted this outside of this thread? There are some very talented ROM packagers out there and I've found a few of them to be quite responsive. I became a big fan of Scott's CleanRoms and messaged with him through his forum. He's on a semi-build vacation but my guess is that he'd be responsive to a fellow ROM builder.
I'll be watching closely and ever eager to try the ROM.
Yes I'm getting help from some other talent like @iB4STiD on getting possibly a Kernal that is what is breaking the WiFi and we do have Kernal source for 4.3 out already.
Hopefully we can get something soon that's the key
FYI I am trying to get some help or advice from @ktoonsez as well

Try using /system/lib/modules from original i9505 TW rom, or give a go at my .zip which is stock MGA kernel + stock modules.
The only thing that fixed WiFi for me when I had this issue with Omega ROM, I flashed NOS HL WiFi fix (or something like that) several times that was on first post with odin but that didn't make my wifi work again.
I read an old thread on xda about HTC Sensation where a Senior Member was mentioning that if the files in /system/modules folder was from another kernel the WiFi wouldn't work.
So I used stock MGA boot.img and extracted the modules folder from stock ROM, placed them all in one flashable .zip and voila!
I flashed and WiFi was working once again!
Anyway, enough talking.
Try manually yourself or try my .zip!
I hope it helps man!
EDIT:
Backup your /system/modules folder just in case.
If you run in any trouble, restore your modules folder and reflash an your previous kernel.
If you still have any issues (highly unlikely, but still) flash back to Stock ROM and you'll be good as new.

Here is what I did and it is working well for me. Download the ROM, Aroma and the Kernal. Boot into recovery, full wipe and then wipe system. Flash the ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349369), Aroma (and select what parts you want) and then Kernal. It takes quite a while for permissions, so be patient with the flashing. After that, you reboot and are good to go.
Hi, it works very good hehehe...
First you have to flash a Recovery (If you dont have one), then make a full wipe of Data and System 5 times, install Barebone Rom, intall Aroma apps, flash Ktoonz Kernel for TW 4.2.2, if Recovery ask you to fix permissons select NO.
Everything works fine, but after the first time that i restart the phone it stucks on the Google logo. sometimes shows the samsung logo.
Thats my results, i'll test more roms.

You flashed/stocked back to odin ne3 and then again flashed the rom. is this time wifi working ?
Correct and yes WiFi is working. The only issue is that if you want to turn off or reboot your phone, you have to turn off WiFi first, else it does not work properly when you not back up. However, even if you forget to do that little trick, a hot reboot fixes Wi-Fi. Otherwise, there aren't any issues with WiFi or in general

I flashed this rom because I can't stand touchwiz (stock Samsung); I really wanted the look and feel of AOSP/stock android. The battery life isn't as good as stock with Galaxy Mod Ultimate (you can still use it, it's just the improvement isn't as noticeable). I'm not quite sure what you mean by gesture? This is an AOSP-style rom so all of Samsung's gimmicky little add-ins such as (but not limited to) air gesture, smart screen, all share, s-beam, s-voice, etc. are not present at all. I think it really comes down to a matter of preference. I have/had around a dozen devices, not all Samsung, and most are running cyanogenmod or something based off of it. Therefore I wanted this rom since it's the closest to cm we're going to get with a locked bootloader. If you like the look and feel of touchwiz or all the features Samsung adds in, or if you're super concerned about battery life, you might want to stick with stock. (Don't let the battery life be the only deciding factor, it's not that bad).

Honestly its a very efficient rom, most things seem to work however randomly for me some apps will stop working, however I believe that to be an app problem not a rom problem. I treat it as a sort of bare essentials rom, if you want a small rom then its worth it. I've installed viper4android and other root apps and those also work perfectly, I believed i flashed it about a week ago and everything is fine
Hi everyone,
So I just got a new Note 4 about an hour ago, and now reading forums realizing that they are not all created equally.
Mine is T3 that came with 5.1.1.
Trying to root this thing, but unless I am missing something it looks like if you root you loose WIFI Calling?
Is there any method to root and keep the feature currently?? I already flashed twrp if that helps. WIFI calling is vital for me unfortunately(
The same time I obviously need root.
Please help!
Tnx

My understanding from that thread is people lose wifi calling functionality if they flash that "Beast" kernel?
It depends. Just rooting alone will not make you lost WiFi calling. If you decide to install a custom ROM or Kernel then you just need to read the descriptions.

Not in this case unfortunately. Current root method for the newest firmware involves falshing specific kernel that messes up wifi calling

Yes we have no stock kernel yet
Give it time the kern will arise.. [emoji16]

I rooted by using odin to flash twrp then flashing SuperSU binary and app through twrp.

I am not sure if WiFi calling still worked when I was done because I never really relied on it ever, on first boot or in your case if you have booted already, turn on OEM unlocking, boot to download, flash the TWRP.img from the teamw.in site, download SuperSU and push the zip to the phone, boot into recovery and flash, it worked fine for me on OFC FW, did not try it on DOG FW because I was already in a rooted state by that time. I almost never rely on TW ROMs because I am a huge advocate of AOSP, however AOSP made my N4 do some weird things, so I will wait until there are a few more changes made before I decide to make the switch back.
Are there any custom roms tested for the US cellular note 5 with working 4g?

Do you have the link to the ROM you used? or the link to the forum that you had gone to. I have tried Moar ROM before but got crashed and random restarts.
Did you have to make any modifications at all? Kernel / API's anything?
Thanks!!

I used this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...m-moar-pc3-mm-rom-v3-0-making-smoars-t3364338
I followed the instructions in the OP, I didnt had to modify anything, and my phone is running smothly. The only thing I've notice is some battery drain after I installed some apps. Now I'm going to try to flash n920p Nougat on it, wish me luck lol

I had no luck flashing n920p Nougat in my N920r4, I guess I'll have to wait until the official update. Did you flashed MOAR?

did you clean flashed it or dirty flashed it? I dirty flash it and never had an issue, even 4g/lte works on it.

From my previous posts, pasted here for help, take it easy and do next:
Now, i can confirm that ROM from thread NAMED: ☆☆》》TELETEAM ROMS N5 & S6E+《《☆☆ by Slidder10 w , PARTICULARLY THIS S8+ 5.2 rom WORKS on N920 R4 US Cellular variant!!
All U have to do is: Install through Odin Stock 7.0, paste rom (S8+ 5.2) on Internal memory, install Nougat TWRP, do ALL wipes except Internal memory, Install Rom and enjoy with Note 5!! Great rom!!! This is Only and first rom(so far tested by me) that works without any modification on N920R4! And it is looks great, fast and without lags. Battery is so far same as on Stock(or closely to it). Any Quest, let me know! :fingers-crossed:
