I did it this way: I renamed all apk's I wanted to remove in system/app/ and system/priv-app/ by putting ".bak" after the full name.

So "xyz.apk" became xyz.apk. bak.

I know there are many apps and even alliance manager to do some safe removing but some apps won't list ALL apps, and in case device won't boot anymore an app can't be used to fix it.

If you renamed apk's to .bak it has the advantage that whenever device won't boot due to some removed app, you can flash AROMA file manager and remove the .bak extension. That way you don't need to figure with apps or setting correct permission for apk's but you just rename by deleting .bak extension.

Just my 2cents ;):p

Random question, is there a "DeBloater" anyone has used with Alliance and has good results?

Reason I ask is because I am on the 900a (At&t) and so no matter what means in which I install Alliance it installs ALL bloat. So i wondered if there was a app/script anyone has used with a positive outcome that I might try.

Thank you.

Titanium Backup, Freezer or just delete .apks from /system with a root explorer :)

Hi everyone Im new to s5 and Im using s3 before one question why should I use the rom customizer to install the rom? can I use the manual way of installing in TWRP instead of using rom customizer? TIA
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Tired Storeman:
If you manually install with twrp you will install stock theme with samsung and google bloat, if you use rom customizer you can choose black glass or

Alliance theme and choose not to install bloat

Cannot install ROM

Hi there,

Great ROM, love this much modification to our wonderful S5!

I thought I was quite the experienced flasher all the way back from the first SGS till today, but....

However, I seem to have a problem installing the ROM using described methods in post 1 (googled the hell out of myself, and found no one doing the ROM Customizer, but just a regarly zip flash from rec.).

I am currently on latest stock rom.

Rooted using Chainfires root, SuperSU installed along with Busybox.

I've dowbloaded TWRP and tried to do a backup, but I end up in recovery where i'm not quite sure what to do in there? TWRP should just create a backup and put it on the internal storage, right? So I exit rec mode by "reboot now."

I've downloaded the ROM zip file and placed it on the internal storage (plus a copy on my ext sd card).

Opened ROM Customizer.

Install from SD, found the zip.

Now I choose:

Wipe Data/Fact reset

Samsung Apps

Google Apps

White Theme

Glass theme

AOSP theme.

And then it reboots into rec mode again, and then I don't know what to do anymore? Tried to install ROM zip from there, looked like it went through, but once rebooted, there are no Alliance Manager or Allaince under setting, just good old stock rom still rooted.

What the he** am I doing wrong? I've been facepalming for way to many hours now :(

A thousands thanks for help!

Kindest regards,

Jakob
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] txr33:
Do you have a custom recovery installed? Because it doesnt sound like you do. Twrp needs to be flashed via odin or mobile odin to replace stock recovery.

To do a nandroid backup you need to boot into a custom recovery then run the option to create a backup.

Also why are you selecting the three themes to be flashed in rom customizer? You only select the one you want installed not all 3.

If you want stock kernel, theme and all apps you can just boot to recovery and flash the zip but if want a different theme or kernel then use rom customizer to make the selection for which one you want
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] stuckedinsweden:
DOH and OMG!

Thank you very much for your splendid help!

No where did i read about twrp being flashed through odin :)

See, this wasn't as clear to me when reading the installation instructions on page 1, but you nailed it now! :)

(I choosed all 3 themes as I was under the impression that once flashed all, you could just switch between them in a sec.)

I'll get right to it.

Maybe some more info may help apart from your screen doesnt wake and you need to pull battery.

Did you install with full wipe?

Which kernel are you using?

If using custom kernel are you ubdervolting, overclocking etc?

Do you have new or old bootloader?

It could be you are using new bootloader with old kernel or it could be settings you are using with a custom kernel

I have flashed a few roms with the past few phones I've had, but they were all AOSP, and this is the first samsung rom I am installing on my S5, so I need to ask a question that is confusing for me.

I would like an update to give colors tot inactive toggles in apps :P by example in the Android standard clock, a strange effect happens when you activate a toggle. The inactive toggles also change colors.

By the way, what color do you have to change for notification icons? Not the one in status bar but the ones in drop downs. On some themes the 'connect as USB storage' icon is grey or blue. I can't find it in colors or backgrounds :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Goldie:

RC will also give you choice of kernel / modem / themes / samsung apps / google apps:cool:

If flash fails in recovery at first, hit install in TWRP and select external. No need to actually install anything, TWRP seems to look for zips in last location used so if you select flash from external in RC next time it will work
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] TiVa:
About the toggle screenshots: I use the official kitkat clock, not the samsung one (I like snooze with volume buttons, something the samsung stock can't). It's just an example of one app that uses toggles, but all other apps suffer about this bug. I have a lot of Tasker profiles that you can toggle on and off and they also have this bug. The first images is when I open up the app, the second image is when I disable the second alarm. You can see that the 'background' from the toggle that was allready inactive also gets red.

Another small bug is when I open some apps (again Tasker or when my alarm gets off) is that the statusbar gets black, and then get transparant again for a few seconds... It's something esthetical, not a big issue, but maybe it's fixed easily?

The third image is not a bug, it's just a color I can't seem to change or I keep looking over it :) I want to change the color of the usb icon inside the notification that's in black on my screen.I spend a lot of time creating my own theme, and that's the only thing that I still want to change. I want to share it if Goldie would like to include more theme's :)

Edit: by the way: alliance rom 5.5, touchwiz theme.

To eulae... power saving and ultra power saving will jack with the KT kernel. It's one or the other. If you set the kernel right I assure you that you'll never need power saving mode.

About the 4G make sure it's the TW version of Alliance, TW Roms are known to run faster than CM. Also check your baseband/radio. You probably changed it. Each radio works better in a different area. Do a search for more radio info but I'll bet that's it.

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Goldie:
Why? Why not install with the guide as the developer instructs? Why try to do it differently? You should install as instructed in the OP. If you want Sammy and Google apps then tick you want them. I don't understand why you would want to try to do it differently. You don't need to do anything with root explorer. Rom customizer includes functionality to uninstall system apps
