Does anyone know if there is a lollipop rom for SGH-i527M or if Samsung plans to officially release one? I prefer a stock one without touchwiz. Is there one anywhere??

No dev is working on Mega anymore, I guess. It's interesting because even my old and mundane Huawei Y300 was easily rooted and now can run lollipop 5.1, but not my Mega I527M!!!
Ok, well is there a rom that exists? Or can someone make one? Or can one from a different device like a nexus 6 work on this phone?

Custom ROMs exist, a couple of them actually, but you have to be very careful. Which version is it 4.2.2 or 4.4.2?
I'm looking for lollipop. Is there one available anywhere, or one for another phone that might work with mine??
There is Paranoid Android verion 5.0 Alpha online and works with my i527m, the only problem is gapps doesn't work, I had previous 4.2.2 rom custom with apps working and update to this one, I have the message unfortunately play services has stopped, I am trying to fix wit no success, because I already download different apps packages from google, cyanogen and other sources and doesnt work.
if somebody have a solution send me a private message please.

Hi, I know its been a while since you posted for a lollipop rom, but I have tried Validus Lollipop 5.0.2 on my sgh-i527m and its running great and fast. http://www.mediafire.com/?uv3f4l3mw4a46os
thanks how did you root (I see kingroot) and how did you install a custom recovery (which one)?

To root I just installed this rooted stock firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-mega/development/rom-rooted-stock-4-4-2-i527mvlucne5-t2917868. You have to use Odin to install this rooted firmware, its not hard you just follow the instuctions in the post
And for recovery I am using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588661. I also used odin to install it to my phone, it took about 10 seconds
And then you can flash any rom for you device. Have fun

I installed Validus-lollipop on i527m and it actually works.
The only problem was the extreme battery drain. Like 1% ---> 1m 7 sec if using wifi or lte.
The solution is easy (use GSam battery monitor): there was a bad kernel wakelock.
If you don't use your mega for touchless paying, just delete NFC.
Find com.android.nfc. Force stop it. Delete cashe/data. Remove. Reboot phone.
how to instal?
and make me sure it gonna work my friend
please

anything available in the root department yet? or the knox removal for that matter?
not a big deal what languages are available though, more concerned about the root and knox, but gonna flash the rom itself tonight to see if dutch is available as well.
It's only just out so nothing custom yet. I've messaged wanam requesting him to work his magic. Hopefully things will start rolling soon.

it takes a while to get their touchwiz working completely for a huge list of different devices and in all fairness 4.4 came not that long after 4.3
as soon as samsung manages to deliver 4.4 with touchwiz, google has released a new android version again so samsung will always be lagging behind
too bad the camera in aosp roms isn't compareable to the stock samsung one otherwise i would've been on 4.3 aosp or 4.4 already as well, its one of the only things actually holding me back of flashing aosp roms ^^ (also sound in some roms is kinda low by default)

his xposed module works in 4.3 roms though ^^ been using it on the skynote 3 rom
but i'm gonna flash the stock rom later today and wait till there's root and such, untils it becomes available. don't believe its impossible to revert back to 4.1.2 stock if i want rooted stuff ^^

don't think so honestly, otherwise people would've succesfully done that with the skynote 3 from the at&t thread
also no root available yet, but as soon as root becomes available, you can use devilkernel,
currently i'm using skynote3 (at&t leak) with devilkernel ^^ but rather have the official as i reckon that one is more bugfree than a leaked rom ^^
you could try if the skynote3 rom is more to your liking, it works (mostly) but there are some bugs present, it has root and no knox.
Can this ROM be installed on a Korean Note 2 (e250s) with a boot converter?
I mean if I can use N7105 modem?

As far as i know,the converter is only used for AOSP.Can it be worked for TW?
i only need root for "greenify" and filemanager. but i definitely need recovery.

what's android kitchen? still got around 30 min left on the download but could look into the android kitchen stuff.
my rom officially is from t-mobile netherlands, but i do not specifically need a t0ltetmo rom as the only thing different for my device when flashing my stock rom is the t-mobile apps and the boot screen from them.
its not like i have a special contact app like AT&T has or anything like that in my stock rom.
GT-N7105 (t0lte) is the one i'm normally aiming for, the rom released for nordic countries doesn't look carrier specific to me either. reckon the only thing that i do need root for is the language enabler, don't know if netherlands is unlocked as a locale by default. I did run stock unrooted rom the last few weeks until someone pointed out last week the at&t 4.3 leak worked on the 7105 models as well, so i got myself root again and installed it. I don't really run any other apps that require root normally.

i've tried the first omnirom 4.4 when it got released but the camera didn't function at all for me, later i read up and noticed that most 4.4 issues where related to twrp recovery, flashing with cwm 6.0.4.1 should've worked but was already playing with skynote by then
its not just quality though, its the fact that samsung has a built in anti-shake option, and i can't seem to get steady shots without it, my hands are shaking a little bit and i can't seem to keep my device steady enough without it. (haven't seen that option in the aosp camera's)
camera worked on 4.3 aosp roms for me, but i didn't like the quality from those, and again the shaking of the hands didn't help either

as far as i read up (including the thread it linked to for the 7105 and such) you need to be rooted in order to flash the rom after you customized it with the kitchen.
as the kitchen creates a flashable zip and not an odin flashable file.

We can't do custom roms without a custom recovery (cmw or twrp). I don't think custom recoveries are available yet. Unless you know something I don't (and that's very possible since I don't know much - lol).

Do you have a metro pcs mega? And if so, did you odin flash twrp on your phone?
I want to be sure before I try because I bricked my metro pcs mega the day I bought it and never got it back working. I had to go back to MetroPCS and get another one. I do not plan on bricking the one I have now. I don't want to take a chance until I know I can recover it from a soft brick.
Without having a firmware that can be flashed in odin, I'm scared to try anything.

Yes I have the Mega from Metro Pcs. That's why posted the link to the other thread.
Yeah, I rooted and and installed the recovery than was like hmm probably shouldn't have done that with out there being a firmware release but oh well. I'm wild that way.
I instilled it through Odin. the only file from that link I used was this one.. http://goo.gl/J5JAH0
Tested Working 100%
I downloaded the attached file, put phone into download mode and flashed the recovery via odin 307. I fully booted the phone and then shut it off to reboot into recovery which is now replaced with TWRP.
Now to see if I can find a lighter ROM something like extremesperia. I haven't seen any multi-carrier roms for this phone so I am not sure what will work.
I also used the backup feature and was able to backup the entire phone.

any of the gsm roms are likely to work on the metro mega, the CM 11 build definitely will as it works on the canadian mega that i have which has all the same specs as the metro mega. the only reason to get the canadian mega in the past was because it was unlocked without a locked bootloader.

I wouldn't go that far tbh...I'd be somewhat cautious as at least on my note 2...there are several variants and all have the same hardware, but run into issues flashing roms incompatible to your specific device. It's kinda guess and check as I've seen i9200 which is the 3g mega intl have a few minor apk issues vs i9205 lte on my rom alone, much less larger issues like framework and data structures or kernel variances between intl and carrier based. Just heads up from someone who builds for several different devices and hardware configs. When it comes to carriers sometimes it's hard telling what the hell they're doing lol.
One thing major is for carrier based devices of any kind, the biggest thing is the modem...If you flash an intl you may lose the carrier frequency.

I've test Most of the ROM's out there and havent had issues my self. Some people say they can't get lte to stick.
Hey guys so basically the thread title says it all. I need a few testers who have the Canadian variant sgh-i527m who can test a rom base for me. What I need is confirmation that everything works on the base ie Bluetooth, data, WiFi, NFC,etc. Once deemed a stable base I can work on making the magic happen of adding cool features.
Of course the standard risks apply: you are responsible for anything you flash or that happens as a result. As always please make a nandroid backup before flashing and ensure you are using the latest, stable recovery
At this point the ROM is rooted, deodexed, zipaligned all apks and Knox free

Hello,
I'm testing it on a i9205....
I installed it over a 4.2.2 bootloader as I never installed KK. So it looks like KK is installing over 4.2.2 Mega fire bootloader
.
I'm finishing up to setup all my account and let you know. So far its working well, the first run Wizard even detect my country "France", it did not before in 4.2.
I ll keep you posted but so far looking good.
Thanks
see screenshot attached
Just a small adjustement, on the i9205 the wifi is not turning on... I dont know why, a driver issue maybe. I will try replace wifi firmware and modules if I can.
Also when I go to ->Setting->security it says setting has stopped. then the phone is rebooting

OK thanks for the feedback. If you're still on the ROM can you run a lotcat and try wifi and also go back to settings security. And then send me the logcat. If you send me it with those issues recreated I should be able to see what the problem is

OK thanks for the feedback. If you're still on the ROM can you run a lotcat and try wifi and also go back to settings security. And then send me the logcat. If you send me it with those issues recreated I should be able to see what the problem is

Sorry I cant, I had to go back to Mega Fire rom as I had no Wifi and cannot install Titanium to restore everything (As I cannot access security options) I had to revert to 4.2.2.
I also tried to modified your zip with a i9205 boot.img and all the System files into your zip from another 4.4.2 i9205, and I had the same issue. I'm starting to wonder if I dont have a radio issue compatibilty or my bootloader 4.2 is messing with some feature (like android finding knox is not on the bootloader). If you have any idea, I dont mind trying again but so far I would like to preserve my bootloader as my phone still under warranty.

At this point my best guess is boot loader but who knows. Hopefully I can get more user feedback and i257m feedback most importantly. Thanks for your time

I ve tried another rom 4.4.2 as a zip file and same issues. I revert it back to MF V11X and it works as normal.
I'm wondering if those issues are related to the bootloader (like for Param-Security) phone is looking for knox info and cannot find them.
reply:
Anyway for now my bootloader still in 4.2
I never checked wifi (I barely use wifi as is) System settings kept force closing on me and the ROM overall was a bit laggy (compared to MegaFire - probably not a fair comparison though - lol). My phone did keep rebooting every time I went into certain system settings to make changes (I don't remember which ones at this point). To be honest, I was just trying to see if I could flash it onto my phone. I had no intent to fully test the ROM for stability. Mega's ROMs are rock steady stable so I was just trying that 4.4.2 ROM while waiting for Mega to finish and post MegaKat.

Hi,
I just test the megakat rom from megafire, with the newbootloader and its all working. I can confirm wifi and setting issue were due to the bootloader
You should take a look at megakat op and rom, u will work with a almost bug free rom

i527 boot loader is locked. Just because you put an M at the end doesn't automatically make it unlocked....pssh noobs. ?
edit>>> @scoobthegambler, you are right, I made a mistake, my apologies
@pierrottls31 it's very poor etiquette to post another devs rom in someone else's rom thread. Please help to keep development threads eleventh to the threads they pertain to
Thanks in advance
@GT247 I never posted or mention another developer's rom I merely stated that the i527 had a locked bootloader and the op restated that he was talking about i527m

No it doesnt, but the M does have a recovery and is able to flash any of Sileshnair's roms.
It is not an ATT device.

I did not mean too, I just wanted him to know you can go from more clean room to start than stock... Stock rom is buggy and all... I took the rom from megafire and tweak it my way, this way I dont have to re-correct all the bug.... but sorry if it was mis-understood... I did mention it for reference only.... cheers

Seems they have a test build overe here for 5.0 what would we have to do to flash this to ours? Anyone tried making it work yet?
It would need to be a ported Rom with the libraries needed for out radio instead.
Afraid you will need to wait until someone makes a custom Rom
I'm about to ditch this S5 t-mobile. It looks like we're not getting the update to lollipop any time soon. It's bull they're getting it everywhere but the SM-G900T version. I may be a little harsh and a cry baby but this is just getting nuts. 4.4.2 just runs like crap force closes apps closing. Even on custom rom that are good roms but there's still issues. Enough is enough time to go to the nexus line. J.S

From what I understand, Samsung's currently testing 5.0 on the T-Mobile, AT&T, and Sprint S5's. They started it about two or three weeks ago.
Supposedly, the Note 4 / Note Edge testing will start next week.
Yeah.
Samsung looks like they are being fairly aggressive to get this update out.
I think this is another way they are trying to compete with Apple devices.
They want their updates to go through as quickly as possible.
I have no desire to update to LP personally, I enjoy the ability to customize everything about my ROM. If I didn't have a rooted phone, or want one, then sure I'd update to LP. No Xposed, and all the annoyances of having TW? No thanks.

I just saw this post and was surprised that nobody has put up a 5.0 test build. I just put one together based on the G900F Polish 5.0 release. I will upload if someone would like to test it. I have a G900A so can't test for myself.

Here is the test build. Use the latest TWRP, perform a full wipe then flash and let everyone know if it boots up. Flash at your own risk!:

Yes and it did not work. It flashed just fine. It just stayed at the galaxy s5 screen and then eventually rebooted itself back into recovery mode. I even tried flashing a 4.4.2 kernel to see if it would boot .

Thanks for trying, the Sprint leak requires the 5.0 bootloader in order to boot. I suspect the bootloader is also required with this build Anyway, thanks for testing.
Ive yet to update to the NK2 but that would still be 4.4.2 and not 5. and since 5 is not out it would be impossible to update to the 5.0 BL.
Hey guys, I've just spent the last two days searching high and low for a way to put a custom recovery on my rooted Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime (SM-G530T), and I've come up with close to nothing. Most forum posts about custom recoveries only refer to the SM-G530H variant of the phone, and I am in no way experienced enough to know what is and isn't safe to flash onto my phone in regards to other models custom recoveries. If someone who is more well versed in this area could let me know if any of these recoveries are safe to use, it would be greatly appreciated.
The only thing concrete that i have found on the subject is an obscure tech site's tutorial on rooting the G530T/G530P, which recommends the custom recoveries CWM and TWRP for the Grand Prime. however, the links given are disappointingly vague and do not provide any information on the models that the referenced recoveries are compatible with. As I am still a new user i am unable to post a link in this thread, so if you would like to see the referenced tutorials then you can DM me and Ill give you the link. I would really appreciate any input on this because i'm honestly out of my depth here.

There are no recoveries built for G530T ATM. The ones for the G530H work fine on the G530T from what I've tested. But, you cant flash zips or even make a backup on those so.. Yeah. Kind of useless in a way. For now, I use flashfire to flash zips but Xposed doesn't seem to flash or want to. I am currently making a custom TW ROM for the G530T that is debloated with some extra goodies. Testing it is kind of hard without a custom recovery. I may get someone to build the latest TWRP for the G530T so I can do some modding on this device, can't guarantee if he will.
Regards.

Its funny that you say that actually, because in the days after I first made this post I continued my search and was able to find a version of TWRP on xda that works for my SM-G530T, I then used it to flash xposed and everything seems to have gone just fine, the only small hitch is that you can't make nandroid back ups with this version, unfortunately. If you would like I can DM you the link to the twrp version since I still can't post links in threads

Ok I have it working and can confirm that it crashes on backup. I've made a backup using Online Nandroid Backup apk, and I am wondering if anyone has done the same, and successfully restored from it. Or does the restore bomb out same as the backup?

I have had the same problem CWM/TWRP get's to 90% and dies. I am convinced that there is no custom recovery for the 'T' version. Rooted fine with Kingroot (no init.d support on this rom). I'm also using init.d scripts support from the play store and 3ctoolbox pro to facilitate root until there is a custom rom from cm, hopefully.
