    Hi dude, I admire your work and I would like to test it on my smartphone, but I have some unknowns that need to be clarified to give way.

    Does this work with the G532M? (Samsung J2 Prime or Grand Prime +)

    I will apply the ROM for daily use, will the ROM give me some kind of problem?

    Do you work with all networks? (Including 4G and LTE)
