After i updated my s3 t827 with the original onu ui update, my tab is slower than a snail. I wanted to try custom roms before throwing it out of the window.
I use mobile internet with it and i do not want to lose that option with a custom rom.
Can u let me know if they killed this tanlet with the latest update or do i still have a light at the end of the tunnel if i use a custom rom?
Thanks
The 827 is the Verizon version. Basically you're locked into the Samsung/Verizon firmware. The device can't be rooted and you can't use custom roms.
How about the US Cellular or Turkish ROM? They are both T827 variants and I've seen where people have successfully flashed Verizon onto US Cellular units.
I use samsung t827 tablet Turkish rum but can this tablet be root and can be used as a phone ..?

Hi Nuclearwire,
Thnx for the info. Am currently using stock (korean firmware) E210LKLUKOB1 Android 4.4.4 for the samsung s3 shv-e210l (because i didn't get any other firmware / rom to work) but experiencing Call Drops with this Rom. After 2-3 minutes the call just drops completely and i dont know how to solve this yet...
I' m using it on European networks instead of Korean so i guess it' s probably a modem / network issue. (Also since shutting down mobile data solves the call drops) Please let me know which network you are using with the D.A. Rom so i can figure out if it might also work on my network.
Thnx.

sorry man.... i have changed my cell phone now
hi guys, just bought the s6 edge and was wondering which variant the g925L is compatible with? is it the same as the g925F in terms of ROMs and such? im actually tempted in flashing a different stock firmware because i dont like the stock korean apps, will it be okay to do that? thank you
+1 for this
anyone? can i root?
Dear @awitee
1)In case of flashing you can flash it with different country but it must be for your model (in case you dont wont to trip knox and use samsung pay)
2)still no root from chainfire fro your model.
Regards

Hi thanks for the reply.
So does that mean i cant flash the stock G925F firmware on my G925L model? what will happen if i do?
simple, you'll get bootloop that stays pretty much on the Samsung start logo. Or maybe even nothing at all. You could be directed to Download Mode and it could say update fail, please try to update again. This can all be solved by flashing the designated firmware meant for your phone model. So it's basically a soft brick. No biggie. I won't suggest you try to flash a different model-firmware on your phone. But if you're keen in seeing the results, please go ahead. Just make sure you have your model-specific firmware somewhere, and the non-model-specific firmware that you want to try out (obviously).
*coming from experience downloading and flashing the wrong model-firmware
i have a Verizon s4 . its unlocked. i am using it in india . i cant find any lollipop firmware without Verizon carrier . how do i upgrade my device to 5.0 ?
I'm guessing you want t update to lolipop but can't because Verizon isn't in India? There's Muniz's rooted stock OF1 in the general section.

thank you for your help i am new to flashing . can you give me link please . i don't know what is munzi or of1 . . can i flash it with Odin ? is it safe like original roms?
are you rooted? If not could you tell me which build number your phone is currently at?
As for Muniz, he's a guy who works on rooting our galaxy s4 =)
the latest build for verizon galaxy s4 ends in OF1. it is Android Lolipop, 5.0.1
his instructions are here.
you'll need root to follow the directions.

from the looks of things , this looks risky . i would rather have a unbricked s4 without lollipop thanks for your help. is it possible to root s4 with iroot ?
It's not really that risky.
best way to root kitkat Verizon galaxy s4 is to use towelroot with NC5 build kernal
Verizon's Galaxy s4 is supposed to be unlocked by default, its just rooting is an option just in case you dont like the look of the s4's lolipop. if you want just complete current stock lolipop build OF1 you can download it here and use ODIN to flash, or just use Samsung kies software.
just so you know if you use the sammobile method or kies method to update to lolipop, you cannot go back down to kitkat. Muniz's method with root allows you to return to kitkat builds if you so desire.
by the way what happens when we flash a rom with carrier to a unlocked phone ?

wait a minute . the link you just send me . . isn't it a rom with Verizon carrier . my phone will remain unlocked if i flash it ?????
You do realize that Verizon phones are supposed to be GSM unlocked by default due to some agreement with FCC for their bands?
From here
Unlocking a Verizon phone
Even though Verizon uses CDMA instead of GSM, most of Big Red’s devices come with an unlocked SIM card slot. According to Verizon, its 4G LTE devices aren’t locked and, if you want to bring one of them to another carrier, there is no code needed to program the phone to play nice with it.
However, even though SIM-equipped Verizon phones can be used on AT&T, T-Mobile, or other GSM carriers, the phone will need to have roaming GSM radios in order to make phone calls and send texts in the United States. While most recent Verizon handsets will work just fine on American GSM bands, your mileage will vary when it comes to LTE support.
Even though Verizon doesn’t have an online unlock request, you can call 1-800-711-8300 and request a SIM unlock.

sorry for my lack of knowledge . i didn't know that . i bought it from my friend . i thought it was locked by verizon and he got it unlocked for Indian sims .
well, then the choice is yours, you can root your phone and use muniz's method to allow you the option of going back to kitkat if you desire, or just use normal methods like samsung kies to update normally, which will lock the bootloader so you can't downgrade.
As for me, I'm going to(try to) sleep. 3 AM here X(

thanks buddy you were very helpful . my last question what happens when we flash a rom with carrier to an unlocked phone .
well... if it was one of those international versions of the galaxy s4 like the GT-I9500, then you'd probably brick it by flashing a rom for a carrier version like the SCH-i545. or at the very least softbrick it.
I think unlocking phones is something more hard coded than the rom itself. cause, even if for example you have a att phone unlocked, it still has a att rom, and should be able to update the rom while using an att sim
though in your case, I have a feeling whoever "unlocked" your phone never bothered anything other than change the APN settings to that of whatever Indian carrier you were using.
your phone shoulnt have any problems with flashing an update via kies.
check your build number under settings> more> about phone. if they match any of the PDA here, you're on stock. using network signal info app in the play store can also tell you the build number (build ID) and bootloader.
though if your phone doesn't say "custom" when you boot it from power'ed off, that you're probably on a stock rom with no root
Sorry if these are dumb questions... I have searched unsuccessfully for answers here and I am new to the forums and to Android... not sure where to ask this...
I just bought a new (unsold stock) T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900T) phone and activated it on the T-Mobile network. The phone came with G900TUVU1ANE6 (4.4.2) from the factory. After only a few hours of operation T-Mobile has pushed an unnamed update to the phone which I assume is G900TUVU1GPE1 (6.0.1) Marshmallow. I have postponed installation of the update but don't know how long I can postpone it or if I can prevent its installation.
Will installing Marshmallow cause my S5's bootloader to become locked? I ask because I found this on Wikipedia (link not allowed) "As of Marshmallow, the Android Compatibility Definition Document contains new security mandates for devices, dictating that those that are capable of accessing encrypted data without affecting performance must enable Secure boot and device encryption by default".
Or is my G900T's bootloader already locked? I ask because I found this at root my galaxy dot net (link not allowed) "If your device’s bootloader is locked then you will get the update via OTA. [...] If your device is rooted or bootloader is unlocked then you have to manually Flash / Install Official Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Firmware On T-Mobile Galaxy S5 using Odin Flash tool".
The second question worries me more. I bought a T-Mobile S5 because so many sources claim the G900T bootloaders are unlocked. Now I'm unsure. Is there an easy way to determine if my bootloader is locked or unlocked? (I have Heimdall available on a Linux laptop but no windows machine).
I hope to install CM10 or CM13 on my S5. Thanks in advance for any definite information or guidance anyone can provide.
I'm thinking about buying an S5 and am wondering this as well.

After installing the latest firmware, you can still flash custom ROMs, you can still root, etc.
Just look in the Android Development sub-forum, and you will see several custom ROMs for MM on the SM-900T.
You can also flash ROMs from the International S5 forum. I've never flash a CM ROM, but there are several on this forum that have and do.

G900T T-Mobile's bootloader is not locked. I've downgraded from MM to KK without problems. I flashed RR MM without problems
No brother . I mean if I need to root s5 T-Mobile than shall I downgrade it first or I can easily do it on marshmallow.
Can u tell me any authentic root process!
Thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...l/root-how-to-root-sm-g900t-firmware-t3358190
It's exactly the same process on MM as it is on LP or KK.
I rooted my G900T about two weeks ago. It had MM the latest patches and everything, so you don't need to worry about the bootloader ever being locked.
marshmallow to Lollipop?

Hi! is your smartphone really a G900T?

I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy J8 from Australia because I lost my phone there. When I came home to India I found out that the Australian J8 does not support VoLTE (Voice over LTE) but I need VoLTE for my Indian sim card to work. So I went to the Samsung service center but they straight away denied any support since I bought this in another country.
The Indian varient J8 supports VoLTE but the Australian one does not even when both the phones have the exact same hardware. So its a software limitation.
Can anyone suggest any method I can use to install any custom ROM that'll support VoLTE.
I'm willing to install anything, root my phone or whatever it takes since I'm never gonna get any warranty on this. So I might as well try everything else.

Just download Indian firmware from sammobile and flash via odin, that will contain latest modem for your device. It might bring VoLTE, because I think its software problem.
