Will we see custom marshmallow roms when the official update is released? - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So sooner or later, we should be getting marshmallow on our phones. I'm curious to know if those who unlocked their phones will be seeing custom roms based on the update, or if it will cause problems.

We already can install custom mm rom and everything seems to work

Isn't cm13 MM? been using it for like a week.. runs great.

Will we be seeing a MM touch wiz rom soon?

Bootloader Version vs ROM Version?

My question is, does it matter what bootloader version you are on for a custom rom?
Far as if I am on MM Rom (Jasmine 6/7), do I need to be on MM bootloader version or LL bootloader for LL Rom? I know I need to be MM bootloader to even be on MM ROM, but do you understand what I am asking? Do I need to be on LL bootloader for LL ROM and MM bootloader for MM ROM?
Can I be on MM bootloader and have LL ROM?
The reason I ask is I am on the MM bootloader and have Jasmine v7 installed and my camera works just fine. But I want to go back to Jasmine 4.3 (LL), but when I install it again on MM bootloader, the camera is blurry.
The only way to fix the blurry camera is to install official firmware or MM rom such as Jasmine 6/7, or even official LL firmware.
I have no problem starting the whole process of unlocking the nite 4 since I've already done it a dozen times now. But while at work was wondering if anybody had an answer other then what I am doing.

If you're on a Marshmallow bootloader you can only use ROMs that are based on the Marshmallow bootloader. Jasmine 6.0 and up are examples of such ROMs. Paul Pizz and CM13 from 6/22 up are too. (Yeah, I know, so is the 6/20 version but that was so buggy that I don't even count it.)
Jasmine 4.3 and below were based on Lollipop bootloaders and need a Lollipop bootloader to work properly.
Yeah, the ROMs may partially work if you cross them up. But they won't be usable, with the big problem being data and the lack of.

[q] lg g4 stock based rom

Hey guys, My dad is willing to update his LG G4'S version (Currently running Lollipop), I do understand a thing or two in rooting, custom roms and recoverys , however, I own a galaxy s6 - it has no AOSP Roms, only stock based. and my father is used to his phone as it is, I don't think flashing cyanogenmod will be a good idea, he likes the functions LG added and stuff like that( Yeah, I don't understand it too ). Are there any good MM stock based roms?
Thanks and sorry for my English
Cant u just ota official mm?
If not, what variant does he have? not all roms can be flashed.

Sorry for not mentioning - H815, Also, what is the newest official MM version (carrier-free)? I don't have any OTA's in my place currently unfortunately.
I use the stock MM ROM ver 20D listed in Android Development section, and it is lightning fast and smooth!

Well good news, you got the bootloader unlockable variant!
To be honest anything with H815 in it is what you can do.
You can flash stock MM (I'd reccomend v20h its located in the general section)
You can flash cm13,
Be free little birdy!

[Q] T705W wont boot any 5.1 ROMs

Hi folks,
Its been a long while since I've played around with Samsung devices (Galaxy S1, lol) and I'm running into some issues after picking up a used Galaxy Tab S 8.4 LTE (T705W Telus [unlocked]). So far I've got it updated to 5.0.2, rooted, and installed TWRP 3.0.2-0. I've got a nandroid of the stock rom that I've been using to fall back to as well as a copy of the Telus firmware if things go south. With my limited knowledge and reading/searching before creating this thread, I know that I'd likely need an updated firmware in order to get Marshmallow, but that doesn't appear to be available for the T705W.
The Issue: It appears I'm unable to flash any rom that isn't for 5.0.2. I would have thought that running 5.1 based ROMs would be fine, considering they're both LP. However I'm not having any luck... I've tried CM12, BlissPop v4, PAC 5.1 LP, and Ressurection Remix LP. All of which result in an infinite boot of the ROMs logo (I've waited ~30 mins for each one)
The Questions:
What obvious thing am I missing in order to allow me to flash 5.1 based roms?
Is there any firmware for the T705W that I can use to run 6+ based ROMs? (pipedream)
Am I stuck on 5.0.2?
Thanks for your time!

About Custom ROMs Android versions

Just a silly question. Why the most ROMs for Moto Z2 Play are based on Oreo?
I have this device since 2017, updated until Android Pie via OTA, but I want to change for something different than stock ROM.
The problem is, most ROMs still based on old version of Android and I don't want to downgrade.

Custom ROM for Galaxy S5 G900T - Are older Lollipop 5.0 based ROMs still available?

I'm new to flashing ROMs... originally rooted my S5 in 2016, but am just now getting around to flashing a rom. My phone runs on Lollipop 5.0. I'm concerned that the hardware will no well support ROMs based on Android 10, 11 & 12 - which is what I'm seeing everywhere.
1. If I flash the newer versions on LineageOS, will they work correctly on my phone?
2. Can I still use ROMs based on Lollipop 5.0 - If so, where can I find them?
Thanks!
