Hi!
I bought recently a Samsung Galaxy Gran Duos Prime (SM-G530BT), I think it's a new device, since it's still on samsung website index. I have some questions about this device.
1. Might it receive official updates to Lollipop? (I bet no, since Samsung hardly updates anything - and Samsung support is the same as nothing, all they can tell is the more-than-obvious)
2. Are there, already, any advance in the development of custom ROMs? (I hate touchwiz too, it makes Android 4.4 look like 2.2) When do you think there may be some cyanogenmod build for it?
3. "Ok Google" hotword from any screen option isn't appearing on the Google Now settings. My language (Brazilian portuguese) is supported, as I used it with no problems on my old Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini, in stock and custom ROMs. But, even with Google Now and Google Now Launcher both up to date, the "From any screen" option isn't there - and there aren't "Not available to this device" messages too. Has someone faced the same issue?
Thanks!

Hello to all,
First of all ,question .
The stock firmware of Samsung in 4.4.2 is a TouchWiz if i am not mistaken ?
If yes, let's go forward.
I have tried CyanogenMOD ,and some other ROMs,but i didn't like anything like the stock one. I just need the stock one without the bloat apps that has the company.
So i have find out with help the Google Play 5.0 ROM ,i really liked it,even though it's a bit different rather than the 4.4.2 but the 2 problems that i am having and if i can solve them i will keep the ROM is.
1. I want the keyboard of 4.4.2 into 5.0 . Why ? The reason is ,because first of all above the keyboard i had the numbers already installed, and the second reason is when you type in Greek "Good Morning" = Καλημέρα you need a tone in the letter έ WHICH it cannot be provided via 5.0 keyboard.
2.You don't have any program inside,which on 1 hand is good but on the other hand is a little bit tricky to find the "gapps" that you need like Maps.
3.The icons are PRETTY BIG on the start screen.
So any help ?
Thank you all.
Greetings,
I have recently purchased my wife a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7" tablet (model SM-T230NU). We are pretty happy with the tablet however I would love to get rid of all the bloat that Samsung adds into the OS.
Years ago I installed a custom ROM on a ASUS tablet that not only upgraded the OS to a more recent Android release, but also was clean stock android install. I am interested in a recommendation for a stable
Android ROM for the Galaxy Tab where I am not loosing any functionality. The Galaxy Tab ships with Android version 4.4.2. I'd also be interested in going to Lollipop or Marshmallow if there is a stable version available.
Appreciate any recommendations!
Cheers,
Torbuck

Hi,
My Tab4 SM-T230NU is only booting up to the Tab4 screen and just hangs there.. I downloaded the Acheron rom and a few others as well to try to get this working again.. I have installed the latest Odin software and the USB drivers, but can't seem to figure out how to go about installing the Rom using this. I also tried the Kies software, and it tries to connect to it, but never does, so that's out.. I also can't get it to go to "recovery" mode using the pwr,vol up,Home buttons, but it does go into the "download" mode.. There's no way for me to turn on USB Debugging in the developer options, so can I still install this rom using Odin? Thanks for any assistance.
I flashed the back ported Note 5 firmware onto my Note 3. At one point it let me search for companies and people right from my phone app so that I don't have to fish it off of the browser. Do you know how to enable that feature again? I checked the system and phone app settings, the Phronesis rom configuration, and the Google app, yet I'm coming up empty.
EDIT:
It's a new feature in Marshmallow, and I have Lollipop. One of the ROMs I had flashed was a Marshmallow ROM.
Have a note 5 with rooted stock 6.0.1. Smart switch opens on this device.
Have a note 3 with Resurrection Remix and Open Gapps installed - working fine. Smart switch will install on this device, but when ibtrybto open it, it flashes, closes, and I very briefly and see a toast that says ”signing key is mismatched between apk and firmware". It might say more than that, but that's what I can make out as the toast is only half a second or less.
And help to fix this?
Same Issue
I'm having the same issue. I'm trying to switch from a S5 to a S7e. I'm running CM13 13.0-20160412-Nightly-klte and GApps.
I was able to screenshot the error message.
Any help please? TIA
I'm quite sure that this won't work, because it needs a Samsung framework (Samsung rom).

I thought about that, but it says Android, iPhone, Blackberry as the origin platform choices. I wold take that to mean that it can be any flavor of Android, whether pure, CM, HTC, Sony, or Huawai.
I can't think of a reason that it wouldn't work because of that.
Anyone found a fix to this yet? I'm running an S5 with a marshmallow resurrection remix and Gapps as well...
I'm having the same problem and the solution?
Android v.5 S4 I9500

no need to be so territorial, doesn't change the question if any solutions were identified for note 3 I can try them on note 2
Hey guys,
I really loved my S7 edge in the past, but with the last updates Samsung introduced some things that really bother me.
The worst things are the Samsung Members app and the "contact us" dialogue in every menu and the Volume safe warning.
Some weeks ago I decided to switch to a custom rom and found "SuperMan Rom" and "The Galaxy Project". Flashing these, I wasn't able to use Google Pay and Samsung Health anymore (even on stock). Root was always detected, even if not installed or hidden by magisk.
My Problem with these roms is, that they have built in features that I don't need and "SuperMan Rom" is discontinued...
I would like to have / make a rom which is the closest to stock possible, with all Apps which are not necessary removed and the latest version of those who are installed....and most important GPay and SHealth working.
Do you have any advice for me? I would be happy about any help!
