Hello S2 community!
I'm not new to Rome and customizing Android, but to tablets.
Hence the question:
I assume my WIFI version has already an unlocked unlocked bootloader!? Is this correct?
Can I flash TWRP right away?
Thanks

Yes you can flash and root right out of the box. Just search for the thread ?

I have stock AT&T 4.4.2 and I posted a topic HERE asking if it is possible to root Note 3 or not?
According to the post HERE, it seems like someone has figure it out to root Note 3.
So, I just want to double check, now can I root my AT&T Note 3 ? and install custom ROM to it ?
That is exactly what the thread you linked to said, so yes, you can do those now...

So, once I root my AT&T Note 3 with Towelroot
What custom ROM I should install ? is there anything available out there ? As there was no way to root Note 3 before with 4.4.2 update, I don't know if there was any ROMs available or not ?
anyone ?
In the spirit of helping out, once you root with Towelroot head on over to the Note 3 development section. There are several KK ROM's . As far as a best one, "we" as a community don't label a single ROM as best. Each developer does their best to supply us with a free product. Certainly some are better, than others. It is left to the user to read and make decisions for themselves.
Thank you Roostercruiser,
I understand there could be several ROM. I am not asking what is "BEST" rom, if you could just direct me to several ROMs option, that would be helpful ? That's all I need !
Here you go.

Is there any cyanogenmot for Note 3 (AT&T) ?
I found this but it does not say if it is for AT&T or not: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hlte
Also, can anyone please give me any link where I can get STOCK AT&T ROM (touch wiz) just in case if I want to go back to stock ROM.
No, there is not a Cyanogenmod ROM for AT&T's locked bootloader on Note 3. Make nandroid of stock version you're already running after you root.
No cyanogen mod for us ... With the locked boot loader we are stuck with Samsung based Roms

The bootloader on the i537 cannot be unlocked yet. Work is being looked into on the Verizon/ATT standard S4. You're on the newest firmware right now, however there was an update released today (I don't recommend flashing/installing it yet until we know how it affects us).
With the locked bootloader we cannot use custom kernels. You can however use ATT S4 rom's on it that are touchwiz and safestrap based.
I can give you more information on flashing touchwiz/safestrap (SS) rom's if you'd like, and provide links with working ones.

Soooo, here's two ROM's I know that work.
Google Edition S4 / Pure Nexus Edition
Hyperdrive 18.1
Both of those ROM's work. Follow the steps in the first posts. However, with one change. When it tells you to flash modules for your phone, use these.

Hey guys,
I am a bit confused about all that branding stuff. I live in Germany and I got my phone from "Telekom" with branding.
Is Telekom = T-Mobile Branding ? And yes I get this ·T··· Logo on Bootup.
Also if it's T-Mobile Branding is there anything specific I have to look at ? Because I want to root and unlock my phone and remove the branding.
Also I want the posssibility to switch to a custom ROM. I saw there are two sections for Galaxy S6, one normal and the other one t-mobile.
Can I also just use the ROMs and rooting methods from the the normal section or do I need to stay in the T-Mobile section ? I am really confused with
all this branding **** and the differences between the devices.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S6 (Bought from Telekom with Branding in Germany)
Modelnumber: SM-G920F
Android-Version: 5.1.1
Even though your device may be T-Mobile, your section is actually the normal S6 section, this is for T-Mobile USA branded devices G920T

You can't flash Roms with Odin, you need a custom recovery. You can flash firmware, kernel, modems or recovery with Odin. There are no aosp roms for the S6, they will all be based off samsung firmware

Wait ONLY TouchWiz roms are available for Samsung Galaxy S6 ?! why ?
Another thing. If I want to flash recovery on my branded phone, do I just flash a recovery or do I need to root and unlock first ?!
Also what happens with the branding and the simlock ?!
Yes only TouchWiz. Has to do with some Samsung sources being closed for their chips I believe.
Depending on what firmware, all you have to do is go into developer options, turn on OEM Unlocking, after that you can flash custom recovery.
Branding will stay the same unless you flash another rom.
Sim lock will stay the same. So if it's locked to T-Mobile it'll stay locked

I heard it would be possible to unlock Samsung Galaxy S6 and remove the branding. Also I couldn't find any OEM Unlocking in the developers options ?!

It will not unlock by just flashing a debranded rom, you need another method. If you couldn't find that option in developer options then you have an older firmware and the option is not needed. I recommend you search your section for more info. There is a lot of things to learn about this device

That happened to me... I could not find the option "OEM Unlocking"
It was changed places.
Now it is in "Lock screen and segurity" -> "Unknown sources"
I do not know if it is really equivalent, but must be active if you want to install software from the same phone or sdcard.
Hello
Did a lot of rooting back in the day but it's been a while since.
I assume things have changed in 3 years.
Could someone put a basic Tutorial refresher sticky here for those needing it.
Appreciated greatly.

Hey guys, I'm not new to the s6 world or running "aftermarket roms" . I had one before on epd1 bootloader and was running ozop. Got a new to me s6 and it came with epf1. A lot has changed in the s6 world, and there's a lot that I forgot. Now there's different twrp, kernels with safety net, and magisk. I tried to run ozop v4(and v5) but it gets stuck in bootloop. Tried to downgrade to epd1 but I'm guessing I'm stuck on epf1 bootloader. I'm really wanting to run an aftermarket rom, which rom can I run on epf1 bootloader and what exactly do I need other than the official twrp that I'm running. I am rooted by the way. Tried to get some help in the Q&A and on a couple of rom threads in t-mobile Android development but never got any response. Can someone please point me in the right direction of a compatible rom for my device?
