Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duo SM-G355M Does not work Android 5 onwards !! - Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone! I would like some help if someone can do the "CHARITY" I'm currently out of work and I only have this cell phone "Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Duo SM-G355M" and I just can't make any CUSTOM ROM work with at least Android version 5.0.1 all I've tried have the same problem "I CAN UPDATE" using TWRP but after the BOOT is stopped at the boot screen (Custom ROM logo) infinitely I've tried more than 20 different roms and none works only one of PACMAN I managed to boot this one no the SIM CHIP works so it makes the cell phone useless! Only the STOCK ROMs have worked but these are heavy because they come with the DAMN APPS and this cuar is very weak there is not much space and little memory either! It's almost impossible to use APK on it..
My question is if this type of cell phone (garbage, by the way) is blocked by the manufacturer so as not to UPGRADE?? Only ROM works with KitKart 4.4.2 ???
Can someone help me? Thanks in advance for everyone's attention!

You can try ROM from Ihsan from Sandroid Team. He has a lot of custom ROMs for Galaxy Core 2 from 4.4 KitKat to 8.1.0 Oreo.

WiFi not working after flashing custom ROM

Hi There,
I have a Chinese Coolpad 7296 with the following high level specifications.(Quad Core MT6589M 1.2Ghz Android 4.2 5.5 inch IPS 960*540 Dual Camera).
I flashed(without backing up my stock ROM ) and installed a new custom ROM by using flash tool and a scatter file.
Everything went well, except that the wifi and bluetooth will not turn on. When I try to turn on wifi it gets stuck at 'wifi turning on...'.
Can someone please help me getting this issue resolved? The guys at Coolpad dont reply when I ask them for the stock ROM.
The phone is pretty useless without wifi!
Thanks in advance to all the experts here.

Help with Note 4G, dual-sim, Quad 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410, 2GB ram, 16GB emmc, Gucci

Hi folks,
I'm in Hong Kong right now and I picked up a Redmi Note (HW specs as per the subject line of this thread). I can't seem to find many resources on this specific model, Gucci. It came with MIUI 6, Kitkat 4.4.4, the kernel Build ID is KTU84P if that helps.
I initially flashed TWRP to it and essentially screwed up the recovery because the current Redmi Note TWRP builds don't work on this device. After a few hours of pulling my hair I finally found a CWM build that functions, although it's in Chinese... at least it works. So I've been able to root the device. Here is a link to the actual recovery that works http://en.miui.com/thread-94200-1-1.html
I was wondering if there is any hope to getting an English TWRP on this device, and also flashing Cyanogenmod 12 on to it -- or if the builds floating around will be incompatible... I don't want to end up with a brick.
I'm a pen-tester...I'd eventually love to put Kali Linux Nethunter on the device too, but I gather you need to build a kernel for that and I'm a noob as far as building kernels go.
Thanks for your help.
Only if there will be some phone with similar hardware and port ROM from it. I do not know if the kernel sources were released....they said so but did not seem to find it...
I think you have Philz recovery in English for Gucci now. It works for CT version.
I'm also having trouble install CWM or any third party recovery to dual-sim on latest official stock rom.
It shows this when trying to use fastboot:
fastboot boot recovery.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.548s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: dtb not found)
finished. total time: 0.619s
And when doing flash recovery it just doesn't have any effect on reboot. it will keep rebooting to the same stock. Did OP have the same issue?
Edit: after using the thread linked by OP it worked for me also.

I'm searching for a custom rom for Redmi Gucci, which I'm now using, for a long time. I don't like MIUI rom, either developer or not. tried CM11, the LED doesn't work, tried CM12, either mobile data or SIM & usually both of them don't work. I didn't like Flyme OS or FIUI either, so back to CM11 without LED functioning. Seems like, every good ROM is for 'DIOR'. What's the problem with 'GUCCI'? I can't use a DIOR ROM for my GUCCI, so if there's a good, stable & working ROM for GUCCI, other than MIUI, then kindly let me know. My extensive search over google for the last 3 months have been completely unsuccessful. Plz, help me with the ROM solution. Thanx to all beforehand. :'(

Hi, try CM12 from there.
Yes, no need to say, I tried that too. But just as usual with Gucci CM 12.1, it does have the mobile data bug. It can connect successfully to Network, but the mobile data option is always greyed out & u can see that in the signal bar too...an exclamation mark. When u connect to Wi-Fi, that mark goes away & since I can't get wi-fi for 24x7, so mobile data is a must for me. That's why this ROM is of no use to me. I appreciate ur help though. Thanx...

[Q] Where to find AOSP/CM ROM for Xiaomi Note 4G dualSIM (aka GUCCI)?

Hi,
any Idea where to find AOSP/CM ROM for Xiaomi Note 4G dualSIM (aka GUCCI)? Many ROMs here are specifically saying they are for singleSIM (aka DIOR). And others dont specify at all. I tried asking in a few threads (in about three) and Im still awaiting response, but I still want to ask here .
Any ideas, please? I would like larger phone, larger battery and dualsim but I dislike MIUI ... Thanks for any response!
PS: I found this AOSP ROM which I would like to use but first I need to know if it is for dualSIM or not:

i need to for this rom. thx
Search for gucci
Hi,
i thing its not for this device. You need to search for (phone code name) gucci, not dior! I am looking for this right now. There is cwm, but in Chinese. I found englisth cwm, but i need to test it. CM12 rom is here from this forum.
The mobile data on that CM12 rom doesn't work.
I only have one SIM but I tested on both slots and was not able to get data to work at all.
The only CM rom that I have had any mileage with is the CM11 rom by Ghostly Doctor
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636001100
There's a bit of crapware in the rom but you can open the zip and delete the apk's before flashing.
The only other issue that I have encountered after ~2 weeks of use is that the mobile data periodically disconnects and reconnects, this would normally be a deal breaker but I just cannot hack imitation iOS on the official roms to go back.

A5_UL Eu single sim (and any compatible variants) Working ROM thread

Hi all.
I'm using CM12.1 5.1.1 from 20150429. Grarak unofficial ROM.
Any Cm12.1 based ROM newer than this has bugs making my phone unusable.
-long time detecting sim card, and long time getting a cellular connection once sim detected
-SMS not sending or receiving
-no calls incoming
Which basically make it a mini tablet ...
So far I've tried a pacman 5.0.3 ROM but found it sluggish.
Does anyone with this same model of phone have a workaround or a suggestion of a stable working 5.1 ROM?
Has anyone tried updating RUU with either success or failures to report?
I'm at a loss here and its a shame, this phone is good value for money and was working well up to this last cm12.1 build.
I really don't want to go back to 5.0, and I'm not sure any sense/stock ROM is better? Can you share positive experience on this matter?
Thanks to all devs who give their time to allow us to use and own our phones. I am grateful and in no way taking any of this for granted.
Without you we'd all have locked phones and no freedom.
And peace to all, above and beyond ALL the rest!
Stock with xposed & some mods like Nitro X spark works fine for me, as there is no good ROM for our phone .. the bugs makes the phone unusable with custom roms :/
And you don't have issues with disk space etc? Stock 5.0, 5.1 or 4.4 ?

Read the reply to your last post .
Answer the questions so far you give no details at all.
Suggest One total wipe of phone .
Two flash latest stock rom for a working phone .
Then READ and LEARN .
Three you say no custom rom but thats not true as you have had at least two working and your post shows no install of TW custom roms ,
FOUR
suggest you search and read multiple identical posts .
REPEAT pointless asking questions if you refuse to give details .
