Why are you hanging out here bro? Head over to the Sprint forums!
Anyway, dont do that! Why not flash OMJ's ROM? There are a couple of bugs, I believe, but they're probably minor.

Anyway, the only req for taking update is stock recovery. And stock ROM, of course. You can flash the stock recovery.
No need to RUU or relock boot loader.

[Q] CWM & ROOT for Xperia T

Hello guys,
This CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34607959&postcount=1 and this root v.31 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31545627&postcount=1 work on Sony Xperia T - JB 4.1.2 build 9.1.A.0.489 ??

Use Doomlord's Easy Rooting Toolkit to root, and then, yes, you can install CWM.

Just use the generic CMW recovery

First question, have you unlocked your bootloader. If not, there is not much that you are going to be able to do.
Now assuming that the former is true. By far the easiest method is to google "Install_CM_for_mint" and follow the instructions for getting boot.img on your system and rebooting. At that point you will have the latest released generic CMW recovery installed (6.0.3.6)
You do not need to unlock the boot loader to install recovery. You do not need a custom kernel to install recovery.
Please read post 2 of the all in one thread to find out how to install recovery on a locked bootloader

For the root and the recovery we do not need unlocked bootloader, my question is if those of the two guides posted at the beginning work for the version of firmware that I have.
Yes, both threads day they support the Xperia T in their OPs

Custom Recovery Questions

Hi All,
I'm new to Xda developers forums, pardon me asking. I did was follow the SlapMyMoto/RockMyMoto thread and had sucessful rooting on stock kit kat at&t. I searched the threads for custom recovery for 4.4 since safestrap is not supported on 4.4.
Any one know which custom recovery works with, device is not unlocked bootloader.
Thanks in advanced!
No unlocked bootloader, no custom recovery.
I'm using safestrap fine on 4.4, but I'm still on a 4.2 bootloader.

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

Just got my s6 now to root it!

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

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?
