Root Monstro's Rom v3 SM-G360T & SM-G360T1 5.1.1 Fastest and Lightest Rom 6/12/2016

Hello,

I finally figured out that the Recovery which I was using is not TWRP 2.8, despite Odin confirmed it has been successfully installed.

After manually executed "dd if=recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17" I got correct TWRP version and successfully flashed phone.

However now, instead of booting into system, each time when I turn on the phone it boots into TWRP. How to boot into system??

if you have flashed a switcher at any point you need to flash the restore zip for the ROM you have installed

Got it working after reinstalling boot.img and recovery.img taken from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62457159&postcount=42 with following reinstalling TWRP and flashing once again.

Is it possible to turn off music while booting? And how to check which frequencies are supported? The local 3G does't work and I doubt if this phone supports UMTS/HSPA+ 2100 MHz...

supported frequencies are determined by modem, which is initiated before the OS.

i have seen an xposed module that disables the sound at boot. you can also turn all volumes down before shutting down and this silences the sound at next boot

Gotta use Odin

hey personal question: What programming language did you use to learn and create an android ROM?

I went to school for c++ and Visual Basic, thinking about going back for .net

I recently had to update a game on my device. Now when I try to start the game it gives me a message saying "security violation: 'xposed framework bridge' injection detected" then the app closes. I tried using the module called "sudohide" to hide the xposed framework from the game but, to no avail. Please advise on how I should proceed, I love this rom and don't want to have to go back to stock. Thanx in advance

Fantastic ROM. However, root checker says it's not rooted. I installed the correct one. Xposed and rooted. The first time I installed it SuperSU got installed but I bricked it. Had to start completely over from Stock to this ROM. I found out that all cell phones have A FM transmitter but it's disabled. And this phone (sm-g360T1) has it in the specifications. Rooted phones can install Spirit FM. But needs to be rooted.
