[Q] Available ROMs? - Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the Virgin Mobile 816 and wondered what, if any ROMs are available. I'm new to the phone and don't want to mess it up lol. Already rooted

http://bit.ly/1yS8j48

As I said, I don't want to mess up the phone by trying to install a ROM that isn't working with the Virgin Mobile variant. I'll just stay stock

Actually CM11 works on the Virgin Mobile variant, and the older nighties of CM12.

I did get CM11 up and running. Works great. Going to attempt CM12 soon but need to figure out the recovery thing

Looks like you have the same phone I have (T-Mobile S4 SGH-M919), I want to install a clean and unbranded version of the ROM, I dont know whats happening but my phone is always low of memory, so I have to install Cleaner Master (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleanmaster.mguard) to clean the memory every time I unlock the screen, but this is a S4 not a old Samsung phone and I dont think I have to use apps like that to keep the phone running smothly.. Before the S4 I had a Note2 and S3 and I never got problems like this and the S3 just have a 1 RAM, Any ideas?
Thanks

I'm new on this kind of stuff and dont know which is the correct kernel and modem.
I have my phone rooted and with ClockMod Recover installed correctly.
I was thinking just go to sammobile to found the i9505 ROM and then install with Odin or ClockMod. How I can identify which is the right ROM to download?
thanks a lot!

Yes but you have to immediately flash a kernel that is compatible with T-Mobile. There are threads you can search for which list the compatible kernels.

What? Odin? you do not use that to flash custom roms. Are you rooted with a recovery installed yet?
Actually, all of the guys above are right, flash the rom, then YOUR CARRIERS kernel. But I am concerned with your odin thing.

You might want to check into /data/media/clockworkmod. That would account for you having almost no space on your internal storage...

4.3 ROMs?

What ROMs are okay to flash if you have the Knox bootloader. Im so confused about this Knox thing. Ive read if it doesnt change your bootloader you will be fine and others saying i have to wait for a stok mk3 .tar (i do believe thats the right one) file to be available. one dev posted a rooted 4.3 rom and he said this wont mess with the bootloader. im just nervous dont want to brick my phone. someone please help and shed some light on this confusing situation
This should be Q and A section, and Cnexus posted a FAQ about this in general section....

If you want a simple answer, then here it is: you can flash any rom you want.
Only one catch: do not EVER Odin a full stock tar with version < MK3 to your device or you will instantly brick.

I've been running it with ART and I haven't had it reboot on me yet. I think once I was doing something with the camera gallery and the camera 'broke" and required a restart but I can't remember if that was when I was playing with cm10.2 or cm11.

The original ROM checks for "know" baseband versions to make sure you dont try flashing the ROM on the wrong device. I had to unpack the ROM, add support for the new baseband and then repack the ROM inorder to get it to install. I also change he kernel cmdline to set SELinux to permissive mode by default (like it was in 4.3). I will post the tweaked ROM shortly.

It's not any more complicated. Don't worry about odex and stuff. Just stay in the development threads here and flash what you like. Not trying to be mean here but these types of threads are not necessary. Just make a nandroid and flash away and see what best fits your needs. Each rom is subject to opinion. I use slimfast and have had no issues with it.

I keep asking questions, and you give me other replies rather than answers... If might be straightforward and easy for you. and maybe screwing around with a $350 phone is no issue for you.. but me.. not so much.
"In theory you should be fine if you do dirty flash from another 4.3 rom such as DN3 v1.0 or SN10
We recommend TWRP 2.6.3.1 to flash this rom.
You need 4.3 boot loader.
Have both TWRP and latest CWM on your external SD Card along with Ditto Note 3.1.1
Flash TWRP 2.6.3.1, go into Wipe and slide to do the Factory Reset."
This is not straight forward to me.. since I have no idea if I have a 4.3 bootloader - says I HAVE TO HAVE ONE.
TWRP is at 2.7 now .. is there a reason he says to use 2.6.3.1??? on a rom that was updated 3 days ago??
These are the things that bother me.. I am not interested in bricking my phone.
If you dont want to help.. fine, But explanations for the terms used above are not coming up in searches, unless I want to read a ton of threads.. so I thought someone might answer for me.

If that's what the developer says to use then use it. I would say he knows why to use 2.6.3.1 but that's not really important. Samsung phones are very hard to brick if you follow the directions. I'm no expert dude, all I do is follow the directions in the OP. If you do that you will be fine. What were you running prior to slim fast? If you're not sure you have the bootloader you can just flash it again.

[Q] WiFi Hotspot not working on Dirty Unicorns

Sorry about the general post, I have flashed Roms from here since back in my Droid X days but have never done much posting, so it wont let e ask this on the DU thread.
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the WiFi tether to work in settings. It looks like it sets up but never works and shows little or no connectivity on my laptop.
I love this rom and want to use it as a daily but HAVE to have hotspot use for my home or I get no internet in my rural community.
Any help would be appreciated!!!!

I am also running 7.9.
1. You posted into the wrong section. Questions go to Q&A thread.
2. Wi-Fi trust may be broken because of the kernel or ramdisk. If you flashed a custom kernel then that is probably the problem. If not then the problem is in the ROM. If you flashed that ROM without wiping data and cahce, then that may be the reason why Wi-Fi tether isn't working..

So the problem is in the ROM.
If you can then let the ROM devs know about this issue on their ROM. This may be just ramdisk related or then kernel related

[HOW TO] [ROM INSTALL GUIDE] Albe95 ROM [Note 4 Port] [4.4.4]

.
please note i said ROM INSTALL GUIDE for the M919 ...this is not the actual rom thread.
i take NO CREDIT..all the credit goes to Albe95
reason i am posting this is beacuse i dont see any Note 4 based ports for tmobile development sections and some people may not know but this rom works great on the m919.
here is the thread for the actual rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/rom-albe95-rom-t2967688
HOW TO INSTALL on M919:
***CRITICAL***first make sure that u are on BOTH the nh7 bootloader and modem (u can just odin the tmobile nh7 samsung firmware and it will update everything) if u fail do to do this step then dont be surprised if wifi doesnt work or if u have signal/radio problems.
now make sure u that this rom below works with no problems ..make sure your wifi works, wifi turns on off, and that you can make voice calls and data works via cell carrier.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...stock-base-4-4-4-nh7-rooted-deodexed-t2873695
if everything works previous to this step u can now just install the NOTE 4 port from recovery....just do a full wipe and then install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/rom-albe95-rom-t2967688
NOTE: i am sure there are other and faster ways to install (such as odining orig fw and flashing recovery,root, wipe and then rom) but this method 100% worked for me...if u try to install it on the M919 any other way the please consider that at that point you are testing on your own and your feedback on a successful install would be nice to help others.
Last but not least be sure to thank Albe95 in his original post for the beautiful rom and all the hard work he put into it.
I think I'm gonna pick a few ROMs in another carrier's S4 forum and reword the OP and post it here in development... I mean, because the installation procedures differ so tremendously from ROM to ROM.

That's awesome and all that he gave you permission and all, but what I'm saying is that I don't understand the need for this post... I would think that this would be more "General" oriented than development oriented, seeing as how you're not the developer, you didn't have a hand in developing (unless you were a tester), and the whole idea of this post is just to advertise someone else's work. Like, instead of posting in development, your post in general could say "I know this topic has been covered many multiple times, but you can flash other carriers ROMS, and speaking of... try THIS one" and be done with it.

i see other HOW TO's and Tutorials in this sections, so i dont see much of the difference. If other HOW TO's and Tuts were in GENERAL then i would of posted this in GENERAL. Would asking for permission to make a zipped updater script on the build.prop for this rom to make it fully tmobile then qualify it for this section...cuz thats all that pretty much has to be done, or would it make a difference if i just told the developer to post it himself in this section would that make u happy? (even tho i got his permission)....end of the day its all pretty close to the same IMO...just a matter of how u look at it. personally i figured its a rom and people looking for roms generally come to check this section and this is a rom that works for tmo. ..u may already know how to do it, but there are many others that dont and i bet can learn from the OP. This site is all about learning and testing, i tested something and it works and i am sharing, isnt that what XDA's about? btw im done ranting with any of your posts, this will be the only one..
I mean, I was just curious. I wonder the same thing on the others, honestly. You know I'm literally a nobody here, I just wanted to ask. Myself, personally, since the majority of the ROMs for other carriers don't require anything special other than adding your own APNs, I just don't see the point of even posting each individual ROM in each carriers development section. Now, if someone makes that ROM specifically catered to a certain carrier, then yeah, post away.. but I would think that just generally having the basic understanding that if you see an S4 ROM in another carriers section, go ahead and flash it. I mean, do what you do,I just wanted to know.
The only downside is that albe changed csc to the European one and WiFi calling doesn't work ?

That's interesting. I was wondering why there's no WiFi calling if this was based on the tmobile rom...do you know if there's any way if obtaining WiFi calling? Thanks!

its not based off tmobile but it works for tmobile, its based off the international note 4. its considered a international note 4 port that works with the tmobile s4., so no wifi calling unless u want to use SIP/VOIP

Make sure you are using the nh7 bootloader and modem read the first post.
I am currently on this rom and it is a really nice Rom love all the Note 4 features, my phone is the T-Mobile S4 SGH-M919 And Wifi Calling does work with this rom I have used it plenty of times.
The only issue I have is that there is no call recording feature and I can't find where to shut off the proximity sensor
other then that it works really well.
Will this ROM work with NK2 modem and boot loader, or does it have to be NH7?

Wow that's awesome! How did you get it to work? I know he provided some files in the main thread. Did you get WiFi calling to show up in settings? Thanks!

I just flashed the Rom, cleared Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache and Internal, I am on Cricket Wireless, but originally the phone use to be on T-Mobile, all I did was flash the Rom and the update and I can make calls while WiFi is on and Mobile data is off, as far as WiFi calling in the settings, I don't see that, I believe that is a T-Mobile app or bloatware.
Good Luck

I had the same question. Tried it and looks good but couldn't get WiFi to work.
Correction...I tried the 3.1 version and per op need imperium kernel for WiFi..... the good news is that it works..... however I realized after I posted, that this thread is about the 4.4.4 version, and I was mixing up the threads..... sorry.!
Here is the link for [ROM][S6 APPS PORT] Albe95 LolliROM Official 3.1 (10/04/15) [UPSM] for M919

Did the Imperium kernel make a difference?
