CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 5.1.1 (LP), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 *
 */
BEFORE INSTALLING THIS ROM, MAKE SURE YOUR DEVICE MODEL IS THE SAME AS TITLE
IF YOU ASK ANY QUESTIONS LIKE "IS THIS FOR MODEL BLABLABLA" THEY WILL BE ALL IGNORGED

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.


We'll not support users and answer questions from users which:
  • are running a custom kernel
  • have flashed mods
  • modified system files
  • didn't follow our intructions word by word
  • are unfriendly
  • And most important: DON'T READ THE OP


What's working?
  • Wifi (connection, tethering, etc)
  • Bluetooth
  • RIL (SMS, Mobile data, Calls) [dual-SIM]
  • Camera
  • Video codecs
  • Storage (both internal and external)
  • MTP storage (both internal and external)
  • zRAM (compressed-RAM swap)
  • GAPPS
  • USB OTG
  • Tethering (USB, Wifi, Bluetooth)
  • Sound recording
  • Torch (flashlight)

BUGS/Not working:
  • Weird sound when using loud speaker while calling
  • GPS doesn't work
  • Recorded videos through camera produces wrong color
  • Offline charging doesn't work
  • Switching to other fonts will get bootloops after restart. In this case, if you use TWRP recovery, go to File Manager >> delete "themes" from /data/system would help you escape this without factory reset

First time installing CyanogenMod 12.1 to your Galaxy Grand Prime, or coming from another ROM:
  • Install TWRP Recovery
  • Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo (Vol-up+Home+Power)
  • Do a Nandroid backup! (Optional and only if you weren't running TouchWiz before)
  • WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition + format /system partition)*
  • Install the ROM from sdcard using TWRP Recovery
  • Optionally install the Google Apps ( get it here: https://opengapps.org ) (pico GAPPS recommended)

Thank you!

I would like that this model don't forget, I think that is so injust that "all" roms will be designed for grand prime g530h. I think that this comunity is for all, and would like that more roms will be avaliable for this terminal. Sorry, I don't speak english very well. ;) ;)
