The above link takes you to a site in Vietnamese that claims the original webpage does not exist. Bummer...a custom recovery for the SHV-E470S would be awesome!
I'd pay any developer who could create this, like @nautev I too cannot lend out my device for testing but can provide as much technical and system data as possible. The Galaxy S4 SHV-E470S has upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.1 as of now, so the requirements for a custom recovery may have changed as well. Let me know if there's anything I can do, as far as I'm concerned this thread is still alive! I have 2 friends with the same model also wondering about the development this, there is a small support group but a following nonetheless.
EDIT:
After some more vigorous searching online, I FINALLY managed to locate a working recovery for the S4 Active SHV-E470S Korean International model. It's a ClockWorkMod recovery that uses the touchscreen drivers while at boot, it's called Philz Touch Recovery. I'm so excited to finally have this at my disposal, I tried various recoveries for the non-international S4 Active but none worked. I hope this helped! This thread is now closed.
See the following site to download the PhilzTouch Recovery For SHV-E470S. I believe v4.2.2 is supported on the original factory OS and KitKat v4.4.2, whereas the PhilzTouch v4.4.2 supports the lollipop update to 5.0.1. I cannot personally say as for v4.2.2., but as for v4.4.2 I am currently using it on lollipop 5.0.1 with no issues thus far.

It will be nice to have TWRP 3.1.1 for E470S. Does anybody knows does modded TWRP exist?

[ROM][AOSP 6.0.1_r10]AOSP MM-MR1-RELEASE branch by khaon

Hello everyone,
I have successfully built a package for this device. While the factory images is android-6.0.1_r5, this package features android-6.0.1_r10 along with the optimization flags I use for my other devices.
Instructions:
You need to get a custom recovery, this recovery should work
Boot into twrp
flash the package
optional: factory reset.
I haven't tested this as I am at work currently, so if anyone want to try before I get home do it

No it doesn't. I could tho, I will see how thing evolves. I had my nexus 10 ramdisk patched for SuperSU. But I think now the flashing package cheks your partitions.

Guys just a reminder: don't flash SuperSU ZIP directly. That goes for stock as well as builds like khaon's (just a heads up), but rather one of the existing root options. Flashing a ZIP that tries to modify the kernel, like SuperSU systemless will fail on the Pixel C and might semi-brick your tablet.

I read somewhere you were saying that the boot image is chromeos alike. Could you link me some source-code so I can see and understand the differences and how chromeos bootimage are built ? I looked at the chromeos's sources but i couldnt figure out where to look at.

Basically the kernel image is a depthcharge (the bootloader) payload that contains the Android kernel which then boots Android.
Depthcharge (bootloader source code with fastboot code): https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/depthcharge/
Other relevant project there is also vboot_reference.
---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 AM ----------
It's not just ChromeOS-like... up to the point where the Android kernel boots Android it's completely like on a Chromebook.

But, sourse code?

So is this using the stock boot image?

Sorry for the late reply...

Ewww, I am using this android revision
This tag points to the marshmallow-mr1-release.
There are no sources as it was built with the default sources, however, this was the build platform

Yes it is using the stock boot image.

Thank you! Could someone please upload the build.prop file? TIA!

Thanks a ton man. I've heard this device is more difficult than other devices to build for. When my type C cables and adapters show up tomorrow I will be unlocking the bootloader, flashing TWRP, nand backup, and then I'm going to try your ROM and then the kernel that's available. So it's going to be a good day .

You may just want to root the stock ROM. This ROM has not been updated to the new base, which has fixes for the touchscreen issues.

I also needed to Zenfone selfie ZD551KL

Alright. I will try to get it done by today..

*Link deleted*
FOR ZD551KL VARIANTS ONLY. Any attempt to flash this ROM on other ZenFone 2 series' variants would result in getting stuck at the manufacturer's logo. In that case, you would need to flash the stock ROM back to get it back to a working condition.
I do not have the ZD551KL variant of the ZenFone 2 Selfie with me now, thus, I can't test it out. Please do report back the results after flashing, and inform me immediately if "errors" or "signals" appear upon installation. Thanks!
EDIT: If this works out fine, I will be doing the same for the other variants of the ZenFone 2 series and then place them all into another thread!

this is for the ze551kl?
install from root with twrp?
rooted?
thanks

Nope, only for ZD551KL devices. I just found out that there's essentially no point in removing the verification checks, as even if it installs on the other variants, it would fail to boot as the kernel files are different. That is, unless you are willing to flash the boot.img yourself, which requires downloading the original ROM, extracting, and using the fastboot commands "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
Following up on your other questions, no. No root is required to install this ROM, only a custom recovery, such as TWRP or CWM. The ROM is also NOT pre-rooted (well, I need to learn HOW first.)
I could compile a deodex-ed ROM for you later. Though I would suggest you to wait out a while for the people with the ZD551KL variants to test it out first and see if the Android Kitchen's modifications really worked.
As for now, I will leave the download file as it is (no verification checks). I will update it tomorrow, together with the compiling for the deodex-ed ROM for ZE551KL variants (as well as others, if time permits).

Rizzo, what application you are using to Deodexar the Rom? Here I only use Windows 7 x64

Rizzo, I still do not understand anything.
This Stock ROM that you made available for download, it would be for selfie ZD551KL? What would be the version of this Stock Rom? She has not estarai Deodexada, correct? What do I do here with her in my ZD551KL? Install from sdcard or would the TWRP? I would like to learn how to Unzip the System Image Stock Rom ZD551KL. I do not know how to do this. How can I help you?

Sorry for the confusion guys.... I will be testing it out on my ZE550KL first and see if the tool works properly. If it does, I will help to de-odex the ZD551KL variants (and possibly others too) and post it on an entirely new thread.

Hi there friend thank you for your help. I will wait for the results with your Laser ZE550KL. I'm hoping that everything goes well. So I will wait for the procedure for Variant selfie ZD551KL because this is what I need right now.

Alright! Everything appears to be working... I have not tried flashing yet, but, it should be able to boot up fine.

I've deodexar the Stock rom selfie ZD551KL. I just can not install because of the error in updater-script.

In that case, could you upload the updater-script so that I could have a look at it?

So my friend..
In fact I do not even have the original file to the selfie ZD551KL.
What I was tested in a template JoelDroidLollipopBatchDeodexer the page.
This man did not work ...
I found no script created for Deodexar Rom in selfie ZD551KL.

How have you received the update? Via OTA? What was your latest firmware? What CSC?
Thanks in advance![emoji2]
EDIT:
You have 1CPB4 firmware but Sirocco's one (publied version in XDA) is 1CPB2.. so can you answer my questions? I'm excited to know..! Thanks. @MixTech

All I see is Marshmallow's additions and the launcher/app icons, noting more! Kinda disappointed :/ but that sammy has been doing all these years.

i received this update via OTA and csc BTU

Have you already rooted the rom?
Anyway I mention some devs more expert than me to show this to them: @BlackMesa123 @firefds @komarov27 @eeausli @geiti94
In this thread the OP's author has received via OTA Marshmallow update 1CPB4, (Sirocco's one is older than this ~1CPB2~)...
Can this firmware help the S5 development?
(I haven't mentioned you to disturb you, but I have mentioned you because I think you are more expert than me and maybe you haven't seen this thread that maybe can become important..)
Thanks in advance!

If OP want to make system dump will be great but seems the same as Sirocco one (same build CPB only final number change) but maybe something changed

I am on CB2 (6.0.1), and it is a lot smoother than lollipop, it has all MM feature (like doze), nice animations, no more lag button on multitasking, what do you missing?

A dump would be great. It seems the current samsung build is CPB7 (according to this twitter https://twitter.com/koonsj/status/702359062663528448 in Korean), however CPB4 has to be better than CPB2
The most important would be to have a dump of the stock recovery partition, as it is currently lacking for the dump sirocco did.
Ps : if you want to make a system dump please do it BEFORE rooting, to keep the kernel stock and allow us to flash it while keeping knox 0x0!

We can't make dump without rooting the phone and BTW Recovery isn't important we can flash stock 5.0 one too

Well Sirocco provided us with a twrp backup of the kernel before rooting. That way, Alxndr was able to create a devbase cpb2 that can be flashed while keeping Knox 0x0. He combined the kernel from the twrp backup with the system from the adb dump (that contains a modified kernel due to rooting)
I trust you that the 5.0 recovery works but (I don't know why) alexndr didn't include it in his devbase so it wasn't a stock 6. 0 recovery.

alexndr didn't include a 5.0 recovery as there is no point in doing so. if you want to keep knox 0x0 and because of this flashing through flashfire, then you don't need to flash a 5.0 recovery since you most likely will already have one.
creating a dump of the recovery partition is not possible. for this you would need root for which in return you would need to flash a custom recovery.

Dial *#1234# please
Could you dial this code and tell us what's written?
Maybe SamFirm would work.

That's Jason's site. He was the CM/LinOS dev for our phone. It's not all varients,, just Z00A /Z008. Also, both roms on the site are discounted.

Awesome. He has some Z00D on there as well. I was using CM 12.1 and was about to goto LineageOS 14.1 until I came across RR and another MK71.
A bit OT but I thought I had this phone figured out. I flashed over the AT&T firmware and I was unable to find anything but a TWRP AT&T backup which i could never get to work. So I went onto flashing the WW firmware and I can't get anything working. Can't use stock recovery to flash via sideload or from zip. I also tried TWRP and it wont flash anything either. I have tried different boot.img's and more. The flash tools I have tried are the Asus Flash Tool 1.0.0.45 and UNI Android Tools Asus module's flash tool. The first wont even work and UNI's just errors out. Phone displays RESULT: Fail(clash_cmds error! )
What I am trying to do is unlock my phone with unlock code I got from AT&T and to do it properly i need to get back on that WW firmware unless i can figure a way to unlock on custom FW. CM 12.1 gives the prompt to unlock when foreign sim is inserted but code won't work. I have read some versions of CM will work but again this is different than others being an intel based Zenfone. So I am a bit clueless atm.
