Hello.
Can I install the stock Eclair on my SGS?
Hi.
First of all, you should post general questions like this one in the general forum.
Secondly, if you want to take the time to compile the AOSP with the Samsung drivers, there certainly appears to be nothing stopping you. Nobody's done it that I know of though (not to say I wouldn't like to see that happen)... but give it time. It's only a new device.

You can keep updated woth Android Development forum to see of there is any such ROM available there arent even hald a dozen posts to skim through
Hi guys,
I have a Samsung Note II N7108 which is locked by a carrier from China. The phone doesn't come with Google Play and has restriction on installing some of the applications. I am looking for a firmware that I can flash on my N7108 but not sure which firmware will work.
Anyone has know or experienced on N7108???
I will be appreciate if you can share your information!
Thanks,
jcboy
Thread moved to the Q&A section.
Please use this section for asking questions in, the development forums are for sharing something you've developed or are working on.
Well lets get this off by saying im not a noob at rooting or flashing.
but with the differences between how the s3 acted and the s4 id like to ask for basic help which includes:
1.) Which roms work with the tmo version of the phone. (this includes the unified section) i know the d2tmo worked with the d2att amazingly is this still true?
2.) Kernels which is best for the tmo version (what works with tmo with little worries of breaking device
3.) any other help on the matter of flashing roms or other stuff what works with jfltetmo version. (sorry if the acronym is wrong please correct me)
4.) this post isnt just for me but for everyone who recently changed to this device. (remember most may be noobs. so go noob friendly when replying with answers thanks.)
reason for making this thread is simply for fast help. not to be thrown to the "wolfs" (.zip) and left to fend for our selfs. thanks again for reading and thanks for replying will love to see other "basic stuff to know" posted here.
I see the s4 community is of no help to anyone .
Sad. . . I could get more help from a dead fourm but not here
Probably the reason nobody answered is that we saw you have something like 400 posts, and more than 100 thanks, so by now you should know that most of your questions are easily answered by perusing the Tmo S4 General forum (for basic info on flashing ROMs and such, locations of recovery downloads etc.). "Which is the best" (ROM, Kernel etc.) discussions aren't appropriate, because we all know that situations differ and best for you may be different than best for me. It's best we avoid the religious wars that can start up.
As for which ROMs work, go to the Tmo S4 Android Development and Original Android Development forums. They all work, some better than others, with plenty of info in the threads devoted to each one. And, the "best kernel" will to some extent depend on the ROM you pick.
Nobody threw you to the wolves, but based on your post/thanks count you should have been able to better position your questions. Maybe show having done the minimum of research first (well, you did reference jfltetmo which is why I bothered to respond).
If you're interested, my M919 is updated to the OH3 firmware via the stock firmware (from Sammobile), plus TWRP 2.8.7.0 (got it from thread in the General forum) and the GPE 5.1 ROM posted by Danvdh (from the Android Development forum). Not sure if it's "the best" but it has been very stable for me for the last few weeks and I'm quite happy with it. It runs whatever kernel it came with.
Thanks for the reply. An no I'm not a pro I just find helping people better then being quite.
With the new phone I have no clue as I have came from s3 and before that was the sidekick 4g so I know the big differences and I know to be careful. The sidekick 4g I have bricked a few times with a experimental update to 2.3(sad that the development is dead now)
And also the s3 worked with atnt almost 90% of the time. Which is why I must ask for help here. As no other thread seems to recognize which ROMs (variants) worked with the phone and it seems like there is no kernel for the phone 5.1.1
I see some post about i9505 working for m919 is this true..? Prefer not to lose anything right now
There has been no official T-Mo release of Lollipop (either 5.0 or 5.1x) for it. There is a thread about using the i9505 firmware in the M919 but I haven't tried it.
Most people just flash one of the more popular Dev-created ROMs such as the Google Play Edition (GPE) 5.1 ROM that Danvdh posted... there's probably half a dozen or more very popular ones that work well and include a working kernel as part of the ROM that gets flashed. Plus lots more less popular ones.
I'm with AT&T also... the GPE ROM came with an ATT APN that automagically got selected the first time I booted the phone after flashing, and I had no problem using ATT using this phone/ROM/firmware [OH3] version.
Best of luck to you. I'll be departing the S4 sub-forums pretty soon. Just a little while ago I killed my S4 phone. it slipped from my hand, hit the floor hard on the corner, and cracked the screen. It still works but I'm going to buy something a year newer. Sigh.

Thanks for the reply it just seems like s4 tmo is dead.
Also I ask about a separate kernel because its been one of the things I don't trust just the ROM itself to do as right now the ROM dies faster then the charge is (just typing this.)
Hello guys, I just bought a used samsung galaxy s9 device.
Everything was good until I checked the IMEI, it showed a different device. I tried to do a software update, but it said "Your phone's operating system has been modified in an unauthorized wa. Try updating using smart switch on your computer.
My guess is that they installed a custom firmware and changed the IMEI so that sim card can work in the country I am at.
My concern now is can this installed firmware contain a virus or a spyware of some sort? I need to put my main gmail into this phone and install google authenticator. I am afraid people could have access to my privacy and information.
Please let me know if thats possible and if I can check if its safe or not.
Thanks
