[SM-G530T][5.1.1] In search of a way to put a custom recovery on a G530T - Galaxy Grand Prime General

​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.

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.

[Q] I need to learn how to Install recovery, Flash ROMS, And kernels..etc

Hello. Yesterday was my birthday and i got a used note 1 from my cousion. I came from the HTC evo 3D and i know how to fully root s-off, roms..etc. And i would really like to learn how to do the same to this phone as well. As of right now it has the 4.0.4 firmware on it ICS. I have never owned a samsung phone before and im really new to all of this for the note. I will thank any help i get! I cant wait to start flashing ROMS and kernels to this phone!! . Also once i flash the recovery how do i boot into it? And will i be able to flash roms directly from the phone? I know there is a program called odin that is used to flash recoverys and kernels i think. Last question would be.. Where can i find usb drivers for windows 8.1 for the note 1. Thanks again!

What rom did you flash? Some kit Kat roms require you using cwm recovery. Try flashing a different rom.

Well I just flashed a jellybean 4.1.2 ROM and it is working perfect. But I still want kitkat. I don't remember the name of the one I tried to flash. My main question is when I flash jb, ICS, or kitkat. Do they all just work after flash or do I need some kinda different boot thing like my HTC needed? Last thing is I could not find a flashable cwm recovery through Odin. Do I have to flash it with an app through the phone? PS: If it is as easy to flash things to this phone as easy as I think that would be awesome. So far I am LOVING THIS THING. Samsung might be my new favorite brand.. I had to do so many things to my HTC evo 3D just for custom kernels to be on it. Thanks for any help I get.

Update: Flashed cwm non touch recovery through the app. And I also flashed the candy shop kitkat 4.4.2 ROM, upon boot the WiFi would not work so I am back on the jb 4.1.2 ROM and I am now downloading hellybean jb 4.3 now. I wiped the data before I installed the kitkat ROM and there is no option in recovery to wipe the system so I guess every ROM I install it will overwrite which is kinda weird. I will try to flash the touch version of cwm later.. The one on the forum you gave me says access denied on my phone when I try to download the latest one. But It did work on my pc so I'll get it from there..

Glad your researching!
I also recommend reading the rom descriptions, and instructions. Some builders will clue you in as to which recovery to use, and what gapps need flashed.
I also recommend skimming thru the posts to see what issues other users may have had. They might of given you a clue as to why the Wi-Fi didn't work.

Can you possibly tell me what I can do to make my games run faster on this phone? I ran quadrant and got 3100 as the score. That seems a bit low in my opinion. Or maybe you can tell me what rom is faster. Idk.

i527M lollipop

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.

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

Lg g3 f460k twrp recovery 2.8.6.0 [bumped]

Hi Guys,
This is the twrp recovery for lg g3 f460k (snapdragon 805) variant that i just finished compiling. Feel free to download and use. I just wanted to make a recovery as i realized there isn't one.
DOWNLOAD FOR LOLLIPOP
http://www.4shared.com/file/r4RvFfGdce/lollipop_recovery.html
Back up and remove LG G3 laf partition and boot into fast boot . Instructions below
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/lg-g3-fastboot-mode-61660/
once in fastboot use the command below to boot into recovery, when done reboot to system from TWRP.
HTML:
fastboot boot lollipop_recovery.img
Thanks to:

Not working. This is fake!
There are actually a working twrp 2.8.6.0 for F460 variant which were sharing in some Chinese forums, i managed to get one and it's really fully working. But the thing is there are no one make ROM for this variant so why need a recovery so bad ). Wish someday i could use a AOSP based rom working on F460 variant, would be awesome.

Hey bro,
Actually there is no use for twrp for our devices. Its main purpose is to flash custom rom for which there aren't any. If you are rootedt thats good enough.
If you really want twrp then remove laf partition boot in fast boot and boot into recovery. Use google on how to process.
Lam huaong android lollipop 5.0 rom.. Can it be installable from kitkat stock after rooting and installed recovery on kitkat.And by flashing kitkat kdz i can downgrade it from lollipop to kitkat.
I am working with Bender to try to get an autorec going based off the JZ-Real twrp. If that is successful I plan on dipping my fingers into the ROM developing kool-aid.
No promises on timelines or features, will likely be vanilla AOSP-based at first. But work and kids are my first two priorities whereas this is just a hobby.

On lgviet forum, a rom modder released that apk which install recovery on LP rom (root required) which i'm using. Could that be counted as Autorec? Since i can boot to system or rec directly without having to modify anything else.

I can help too with my f460s
I kinda found an autorec apk for f460slk by bender_007 on his androidfilehost profile, which is a great news for me. Wonder how's the ROM developing is going on now...

Need help making a couple choices

Hey guys, so the last phone I rooted and had a bootstrap on with custom roms was the Motorola Droid x2. We couldn't even get into the kernel. So with that being said I've acquired super user on my g3 months ago to freeze apps. But now I don't depend on my phone like I did then for work. So I want to do the whole thing and I'm unsure what choices to make. I'm not looking for a guide for installing stuff (at least not yet ) just trying to get suggestions and hopefully good recommendations.
So here's the main point for the post
TLDR!!!!!
Current android version 5.0.1
kernels- unlock it? Change it? Not sure what all you can actually do with that.
Bootstrap- clock work mod? Or any other one can't think of names but need something to load roms
Rom for battery and power- cyanogenmod is what I use to run on the x2 not sure if it's still one of the best?
Anything else I missed that I should get and check out?
Thanks in advance
Put TWRP custom recovery on your phone with the autorec TWRP app by @bender_007, in the General section of the non-variant specific G3 sections. Once you give the app superuser permissions it looks like it's hung up but give it 10-30 seconds because it's backing up your current recovery. Then click the button to install TWRP. Download the latest TWRP v2.8.7.0 from its thread also somewhere in the G3 sections, and flash it from your current TWRP.
I use @xdabbeb 's VS985 v2.0 ROM, which is based on the latest official LG ROM, build 35B, based on Android 5.1.1. Very happy with it, very smooth and great on battery.
I haven't heard the term bootstrap with regards to custom recoveries. I'd suggest just calling them custom recoveries.
Thanks for your input it's been a while after I read it I was like yep it's custom recoveries lol thank you again

[REQUEST] Twrp Backup for MT2-L05 or MT2-C00

I've accidentally formatted system from my device. Twrp is installed, now I can boot into twrp only. My device is bricked right now. Can anyone provide me their twrp backup it will be huge help for me so I can restore it from backup. I tried MT2-L03 twrp backup found in other thread but it didn't work.
I also tried by flashing lingegeOs but it also didn't work.
Please Help.
Thanks.
I did quite a bit of reading, and seems like you know a lot more than me, but I do not think L03 will work on your L05.
I found this thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/as.../recovery-mt2-l05-c00-stock-emui-3-0-t3023440
The twrp has two requirements:
Unlocked
Android 4.4.2-5.1.1
Since there is no Android I think you need to load the stock ROM first.
At the bottom there is a link to the stock ROM. If you haven’t tried that please do...

I had to look up the difference between image and ROM. The file in the link seems too small. Hmmmm....

Will do some more research on a computer....
