And so 1 year later and counting, no one has ported anything to I9515? So far in my years of experience with Android I keep being let down by the lack of support for any device I purchase. I got the Note 3 LTE version - there is no cyanogen for it. I got S4 Value edition due to slightly better performance and availability on the market - no one is porting anything for it. CM works without the touch. ROOT + TWRP Touch -> work okay. I cant get anything else though. XPOSED is the 1 thing that I want and in order to get it ..... from what I encountered today after 6 hours of deep research is the following: Uhm....build your own OS and you should be good to go.....


I give up on all this.
There has been cm 12.1 for a while now. http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/113430-romunofficialstablecm121-galaxy-s4-ve-gt-i9515/ there is also a build for 13.1

I am using cm12.1 on my s4 VE. Stable too.. Installed SlimLP5.1.1 and also works like a charm but i prefer to stay on Cm because I like the theme engine. SLIM doesn't have. I am thinking of porting sokp 5.1.1 also.. Based on AOSP 5.1 r18..no promises though

LineageOS 14.1 on Galaxy S4 GT-9515L

Hi guys, i'm planning to buy an Galaxy S4 Value Edition Model 9515L (L from Latin, probably southamerican-friendly frequencies) (The only difference i guess is the back cover and it comes with 4.4) and i want to know if i can install S4 9505 ROMS on it, is there any problem? Plus, is there also a root for it?

I am running LineageOS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2) on my Galaxy S4 GT-9515 and it is working properly.
I found some instructions here at XDA forum and took my chances...
Using TWRP 3.1.1
The phone is running smooth and fast.
The only problem is that some times the SIM Card seems to be lost and I need to restart the device about three times to get working properly again.
Regards and good luck

    Hey, people, computer developer here.
    I want to invest some time into porting CM11 for this phone and have a phone to test builds on.
    Where is git repo with patchset for CM11 support and an issue tracker?
    If nobody is working on a reasonable lightweight Google™-free then... Let's do that?
    Basically, for CM11 to work on this device we need three things —

    • Fix WLAN
    • Fix external sd
    • Fix GPS

    To make those work we have two possibilities — find other distributions of CM11 that have drivers for one or more things that don't work and integrate those into current master; reverse the **** out of the official ROM (btw, is there a trusted official ROM that's not hosted on some b/s shady website?) and backport that stuff to CM11.

    So let's co-ordinate our work in an issue tracker and push this thing! :)

    No one has abandoned anything... at the moment the main developer is phil2sat but he's without a broadband connection, I've contacted him by e-mail and he hopes to get back in february. When he gets back I hope to be able to help him out developing the kernel together with VinBenzin810.

    At the moment we just have to wait.
