I need help flashing g900f based roms to my g900a device. I know that g900f roms have aroma installers and that the g900a safestrap doesn't support aroma. I have read from other threads about how to work around aroma but the process never gets explained, can anyone please help?

Are T-Mobile custom roms flashable on the AT&T Note 3? I would think so since the chipsets are the same. Couldn't really find much info on this.
Ya I don't think you can cause of different kernels and most of them use aroma installer and safestrap DOES NOT support aroma

Is the camera patch required for all touchwhiz based 4.2 rom to be run properly on I537 that has MF3 4.2? Or is it intended for aosp ROMs?
In other words, will the camera work on custom 4.2 tw rom if it were to be run on i537 with mf3 without any error?

You need the camera patch for any ROMs flashed through SafeStrap. You cannot flash AOSP ROMs on the i537.
Thank you. I flashed the patch and camera works but the video camera does not. Is this normal or did I do it wrong?

i know cm 11 doesnt work with safestrap but does aosp or aokp? i tried flashing an aosp rom and it wouldnt boot but on the samsungalaxys5root site it says you can flash aosp. what about aokp?
You can only flash safestrap compatible roms, and even still they have to be touchwiz based, which from what I understand those two roms are not. So to answer your question, no, they will not work.

Why did you move to the S5? Didn't you know about the locked bootloader? I much prefer the stability of T/W than any AOSP Rom.
My rooted S5 debloated running XKRom is smoking and beautiful ta boot.
Yes I've ran practically every AOSP Rom built for the S2 thru the S4 and every T/W.
That being said I'll never denigrate anyone for their Rom or device preference. Whatever makes ya happy is what's important. ????

Hello
I have a problem with flashing new stock rom "G900FXXU1BNL9_G900FXEO1BNL1_XEO" by SafeStrap on my at&t s5. I downloaded rom from sammobile it is a zip file but when i try to install it by SafeStrap i have a error
"NO MD5 FILE FOUND".
After unpacked zip file with rom, there is one file "G900FXXU1BNL9_G900FXEO1BNL1_G900FXXU1BNL9_HOME.tar.md5".
Someone know how can i flash this stock rom? or How can i convert this file to flashable by SafeStrap zip rom?
If it is bad forum section please move it, no remove.
Many, many thanks

I have samsug g900a. I know that this rom is for International version but i read that it should work normally....my stock rom is: KOT49H.G900AUCU2AND3.
Maybe it is possible to unlock bootloader ? or maybe somebodey have this version of rom in flashable zip?

You're trying to flash a .tar file not a ROM zip

Not sure what you're trying to do here.
G900A device has locked bootloader are you trying to Odin a G900F Stock Rom to try and bypass locked bootloader? If thats your reasoning it won't do it.
Is your G900A rooted with Safestrap and if so just download a bone stock G900F Rom and flash in Safestrap.
Im no trying flash via odin because it is no possible...i have locked bootloader and i dont know how can i bypass it...i want flash via safestrap and i cant find flashable zip with g900f lolipop stock rom...

And is not possible to flash with safestrap do to missing bootloader. In order to have lolipop work on S5 you need to have correct bootloader. Since our bootloader is lock you can't do nothing now.
So, why i can flash other custom roms (for exmple "Omega" ) via safestrap and why i cant flash stock samsung lolipop rom?

You can flash G900A G 900T and G900F Roms if your G900A device is rooted with Safestrap installed. You will still have G900A stock kernel no matter what. Having a locked bootloader prevents you from flaahing custom kernels and that is the problem.
It is my understanding that to run the 5.0 Lollipop one must use a compatible custom kernel therefore you WON'T be able to yet since kernel is different.
When AT&T drops official 5.0 lollipop then you'll find developers will start building 5.0 Lollipop Roms.
But i have rooted device and i have installed safestrap...
Maybe, i dont understand but it is so strange for me...
So, maybe can i install stock rom with android 4.4.2 for g900f phones?

It's not about root or Safestrap its about the kernel. The official 5.0 for international G900F uses a different kernel than what is compatible with G900A and until AT&T drops official 5.0 lollipop you won't be able to flash official 5.0 Lollipop G900F Stock ROM.
Yes you can flash any TouchWiz G900F 4.4.2 with your rooted G900A with Safe strap.
Now i undestand thanks for your patience...
Where can i find stock flashable zip 4.4.2 from g900f?

In the Galaxy S5 thread
Okay so about 3 hours ago I got my galaxy s6 and no I wish to root it although I'm out of the loop on what's going can someone clarify for me?. I keep seeing that root isn't supported on 5.1.1 luckily for me I'm still on 5.0.2, I tried ping pong root but that didn't work so now I'm thinking of using cf autoroot. I keep seeing people saying that after root they can't hear when making a call or that data is not working I'm just wondering what's going on? I just want to get updated
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA Free mobile app
The people having the issues with call volume and fingerprint scanner are using the eng sboot for 5.1.1
Cf-autoroot or pingpong for 5.0.2 will both give you root with no issues :thumbup:

It was a leaked engineering bootloader. Yeah, if you're gonna do a custom rom, I would flash something that matches your bootloader. (5.0.2 rom for a 5.0.2 bootloader, etc)

ROOT is supported on 5.1.1 when you flash the custom kernel called UniKernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...d-development/kernel-stockmod-kernel-t3100395 and TWRP is also available for people running 5.1.1 only version 2.8.7.1 though but still don't update because most ROMS are based on 5.1.1 and you cant flash a ROM that is based on 5.0.2 right now.

Hmm so I can't flash 5.0.2 roms right now? That's weird because last night I flashed twrp via Odin and then flashed the super su zip then flashed looper rom and that's 5.0.2 and it's been pretty great so far

Yes but do you have the 5.1.1 bootloader? If so you can only flash 5.1.1 ROMS.
Why doesn't it work on of6?
