Hi, Sorry if this is redundant or a bad post, I'm new to XDA.
I've been looking around the forums and other sites for the past 6 hours or so and i cant seem to find any custom roms (that i can successfully) install to my S5 active.
I just got it (second Hand burner) and all the install methods seem to rely on Safestrap of which i cant seem to find a valid installer for.
Only rom i could find and attempt : https://forum.xda-developers.com/at...m-koolkit-s5-koolactive-v1-0-0b01-07-t2809957
I don't know what I'm missing and if there isn't a publicly available ROM for the phone i would love to make one but i don't know where to start.
If anyone knows of a way i can install a clean version of android on this device please i would appreciate your incite.
Thanks again guys.

Hi guys,
This as probably been answered, however, I did not found anything related to my question.
I'm looking for the "How To" push code changes to my device? Let me explain my issue.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lineage/general/kb-article-troubleshooting-bluetooth-t3646969
I have this EXACT problem. In the thread, there are a couple of fixes to try, and some files... but I don't have a single clue about what to do with them, how to "install" those fixes on my LOS 15.1 Galaxy S7. Im guessing I need an app on my phone to run and apply the changes... but I didn't find exactly how to.
I'm an experienced Windows sys admin, but I'm a total N00b as when it comes to Android. Was able to install Lineage OS 15.1 to my S7 after a lot of trial and errors (I'm even ashamed to tell you guys about that).
I want to learn to exploit the maximum of my phone, but I gotta start by making it work normal again.
Can you help me with this? I'm totally lost as how I can solve my Bluetooth problem with the thread linked a little earlier!
Thank you SOOOOO much for every bit of help you could provide me.

None of these sites you mentioned are trustworthy and working. Where did you see that root is being worked on? I post on multiple thread because I figured others on the general android can see more than the specific device thread.

SAMMOBILE.COM is (effectively) the Samsung ROM portal. You should be able to find the latest build for your S7 there. MAKE SURE that the version you download is intended for the specific carrier / device it came with. Otherwise, bad things shall likely result. Pity you didn't get the international version, which is readily available in the USA. You can flash just about any of the EU builds onto it. Good Luck.

This is because that member didn't look to see if it's available on SamMobile first before referring you to it.
This specific device doesn't appear to be available (for some strange reason) within any of the handful of good Firmware sites that I have. I also noticed a bunch of individuals asking about this in the SamMobile forum as well.
This is the reason why I had referred you to those threads but, here's just a few more helpful items...

It's not a big deal my friend... :thumbup:
I've learned allot myself when I was getting into Member Guidance and i had also taken my lumps from some of the experts too.
I can only help advise/suggest/recommend to you the following brief (very brief because there's more to it) and important information...
1) Confirming and Confirmation: That you both understand the question the member is asking as well as the accuracy of the thread, area of the forum and the outside of the link your referring the member to.
2) Knowledge of the Subject: Know when to provide guidance because I've skipped over questions that I knew that I wouldn't be of much help with.
I wish you both the best of luck!

Good day,
I'm trying to find a combination file for my galaxy s7 edge. I have come across many and am under the impression that as long as my firmware number matches except for the last 4 digits it should be compatible. The only issue is I can't find one close to my firmware number. Or I may have grossly misunderstood the document on how to read combo file names. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Thank you for the help. I've tried the combination file you've provided and it worked! However, I realized too late that the combination file was for an ATT phone and mine is a T-mobile. It upgraded my binaries to v5 and the only stocks for my phone are v4. Since I can't roll back binaries I suppose I will just wait and see if there is a v5 firmware released for my phone. Thank you again for the help and knowledge.
I installed Lineage on my Xperia Z4 in an attempt to get the PPP app working but with no luck. No I want to go back to stock rom again, but when I try Flashtool it sees the device as CB5A2B32HT and NOT as SGP712 as it should be. Flashtool refuses to flash and quits. I have also tried Xperia Companion's Software Repair but it also terminates with an error message.
Is there some way to force flash the stock rom back into the tablet? Or something else I can do?

Thanks for the suggestions, the first lin descibes exactly my problem, unfortunately there is no solution. I have tried to flash system.sin from a downloaded rom in Fastboot mode, but now the tablet won't boot, it gets stuck on the Welcome screen. I also tried to flask kernel.sin but it won't do that saying this is not a boot. Any idea what to try next?

If it was me, and it involves Fastboot, I would try to locate one of the threads on the forum specific to General Fastboot or, I'd even try to see if anyone within one of the other Xperia Zx (Zx meaning Z4 phone, Z3, etc...) areas has a similar issue.

Version 0.9.18 of Flashtool will flash the stock rom regardless of what version the tablet reports.
