If you have searched for custom recovery and custom ROMs using your model number but you didn't find any then they don't exist for your device.

You can try building or porting a recovery yourself. You can try building or porting a ROM for yourself also. You'll get them faster that way, otherwise you'll have to wait and see if someone else does it.

Lucky us you are wrong (for today).
It is possible to run international Grand 2 ROMs using this patch. Thank @nks15 for that!
(I just installed CM13 :victory:)

But I I was right, you can use that ROM on your device but it wasn't built for that model number.

Technically, it doesn't exist for your device, it exists for the other device but just happens to work on yours with a patch.

Either way, a search using your model number would find anything that is useable on your model. Then this ROM should appear in the search that I told you to perform, which means my reply was correct.

That appeared to be tricky. I have G710L (model ms01ltelgt) and installed CM13 for G7102 (which is 2SIM 3G model). Everything worked smoothly except the mobile part.
The right ROM for G710L is G7105 (which is also 1SIM LTE)
For G710K my guess is also G7105 as K model looks like also LTE.
So now I'm looking for https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ent/rom-resurrection-remix-m-v5-6-7-t3360391/ but cannot download it. Help is appreciated.

Allright, so here comes the full step-by-step howto:
1. Get the TWRP recovery good for G710L. I used this, but that proposed by @dnjscjf098 might be good too. Install it as usual, i.e. most probably through Heimdall or Odin
2. Make backup. 1st and most important is EFS. Save EFS backup in some reliable place, e.g. in the cloud. Also backup boot+system just in case.
3. Get 3 files (*): ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161005-ms01lte.zip , patch.zip, G2KR-Converter-Mobile-1.0-beta3-20170112-1516.zip .
4. Replace one file in ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161005-ms01lte.zip: put updater-script to META-INF/com/google/android/ and put all zip files on /sdcard (the updater-script should be taken out of the archive attached)
5. Install them in this order: ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161005-ms01lte.zip , patch.zip, G2KR-Converter-Mobile-1.0-beta3-20170112-1516.zip .
Should work great.
(*) Remember that Mega.nz can be non-trivial to download with browser. Use standalone tools for that, e.g. megatools
4. Don't forget to THANK me :)
