Root [Help] [expirement ] [need info ] Stellar rom on Legend !

hitesh123 · Dec 7, 2013

Hi,
I am just wondering, have any one tried putting stellar ODIN pacakge on Legend.
As both phone are almost same, only difference is one is prepaid and one is postpaid.
any one with experiment already done ?
Will it brick ? will it make legend a stellar.
Wanted to do this , as on stellar I can use my carrier CDMA sim card and use it as nomally without any flashing or anything.
But I heard in Legend sim card is not used, and number is pre-programed on it.
can some one put some light on this ?

tech specs are same, samsung code name is same.
only stellar model number is i200 and legend model number is i20pp (pp=pre pay)

stellar uses SIM slot for LTE card, and legend dont use SIM slot at all, but legend have SIM lot (which is empty while using it on PP service)

by flashing stellar ODIN to Legend, wanted to use Legend SIM slot for CDMA SIM cards.

But dont know its already tried or not.

ive read that the wifi want work but as soon as i can get a unlocked bootloader on this phone ill put twrp so i can have a back up and will start testing

what ever you do never flash the baseband it will make your signal weak for some reason i did that with the lg optimus exceed/the lg lucid which is the same deal with these two phones ones prepaid with one name and the other is post paid with the og name all and all that was a bad idea lol but everything else worked so

U did with LG. This is Samsung and I think recovery is already available for stellar

yes i know what phone we have the Samsung galaxy legend aka Samsung galaxy stellar i was giving in example of what Verizon does with there prepaid phones i also own the lg optimus exceed which is the pp of the lucid any ways the stellar has twrp yes boot our boot loader is locked and if you try to flash twrp then it gives you the yellow triangle and says something about turning your phone off and going to a verizon store to me all that means is your phone is bricked lets unbrick which ive done twice to my phone i wished we had a boot stripper app thats how we got around the locked bootloader for the lg lucid any help would be great i want to move apps to sd lol bad

Bootstrap is a gr8 app.
Have u actually tried on legend to stellar ?

uknow · Dec 19, 2013

bootstrap want work for our device but after alot of digging this is what i have found

FLASH ANYTHING FROM THE LINK BELOW AT YOUR OWN RISK i have nothing to do with this it was all done by other dev
im just getting all the info on this device in one place so maybe we can get this going

Goo.im Downloads - Browsing I200_Galaxy_Stellar

i also found that there is a working modded twrp out there for this device i just cant find a working link

zoned out · Dec 19, 2013

O wow that's. Great. If you happen to find that link of you can post it that would be great. I know some devs that said they would work on this phone if. They can get a stock rom from it so if i can get. A custom recovery i can get them that and they would support it then we can. See how far this phone can go. :-D

Stellar and legend both are totally different devices.
Baseband and hardware are different
But legend can be flashed to cricket with phoneutil.Spk
Thanks to dr faramroze for finding out

Whats do u meen the legend can be flashed to cricket... I have a legend thats rooted but thats it i want a custom recovery, rom, kernal or anything for it lok

hitesh123 · Dec 29, 2013

My main purpose to start this thread was to able to use legend on other carriers . Here we use cdma sim cards on stellar
And legend is almost same as stellar. Only without sim slot.
Now we have found the way to use This phone on other carriers like cricket and rcdma.
Using one carrier phone on other with help of programing is called flashing.
This flashing is totally different than loading custom rom or recovery or even rooting

O wow thats prety cool to u have any kernals, roms or recoverys on the legend?
