Thanks, JKruse.

S5 Settings look cool, and what I found was that until I set the S5 Settings as the default settings option, I had some glitches - if I selected an option in S5 Settings (like About Phone in Settings>System) it would open the Security page. Select Security and it opens Battery. Select Battery and it opens Language and Input.

As soon as I set the S5 Settings as default it started behaving normally.

They look cool.

And you can select your settings favorites for easy access!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
Yes in order to work correctly you have to set s5 settings to default I forgot to mention that. Thanks for pointing that out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Thanks so much for this ROM amd customizations. It is very cool.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] FordNate:
Being as OCT as I could I just tried doing a reboot with it plugged in and experienced that same issue.

Other issue I've encountered is I u GVoice (no service atm) n I've noticed it lags or no nofications at all until i pick up the phone n power up (n then like 5 come in all at once and even say received as to when the phone was powered off.

Jkruse:

One setting I can't get to turn on, called Nearby Devices. Any ideas?

I tap/slide the off button but it won't turn on. NFC is on.

I'm setup on clean NC5 with the original S5 theme from a few days ago. Anyway to get that S5 settings now? Or do I need to totally clean flash? I only have the regular settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
I'm also noticing that the OG battery icons don't seem to update (not sure if this is all the time or some of the time).

I was just looking at mine (phone is plugged in) and it said 80%. Unplugged the phone as I was surprised it hadn't charged up and it jumped to 95% immediately.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
I think you have to have all share installed for this to work but im not sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
just toggle the charging animations on and off that seems to fix the issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gahar:
Thanks for the OG Battery mod zip that's the only mod i wanted to run on this NC5 rom. Everything still running fine with OG battery mod with charging animation working. Thanks agian
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Thanks.

What's the correct approach to installing All Share to play w/the feature?

I don't want to re-run the aroma installer unless there's a way to do that w/out having to set things up all over again. Can I run the Aroma installer "no wipe" and include All Share and then flash the S5 mod again, or ?

If I can just pull a couple APKs from the installer zip and push them and set permissions I'd probably prefer to do it that way.

Looks like it's the stuff in the folder jkruse/Samsunglink, as that has a bunch of Allshare*.apk apps in the app folder.

Going to push those apps, libs, and priv-apps and set permissions and reboot and see what happens.

Hopefully nothing will blow up! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
Can I run the S5 mods and xposed/wanam as long as I install the s5 mods first?. Does it matter the order? I use wanam for things like turning off the camera sound. Exchange mail security.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gahar:
I have not installed the S5 mods except for the S5 message app and I had wanam install 2 days ago and removed because i wasn't using it. I only flashed the OG battery zip file 4 hours ago and so far its working fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
That would probably work running installer with no wipe and then reinstall s5 theme. I think I have the theme so its not so picky when you install it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] G2sws:
Jrkruse this is running and looking great. Thanks for your hard work.

Flashed S5_MODS_AIO_VZW_V1.2.zip over the original S5 Theme, and it worked fine.

Trying to figure out how to get rid of the S Finder and Quickconnect things from the Notification Panel though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Just one of those days for me... :)

I tried pushing the files for Allcast but got FCs on launch of it, even after wiping data on the app, etc., so I decided I'd just reflash the ROM w/out wiping (adding in the missing Samsung programs) and then flash the S5 mod and kernel and reboot and play around w/the features.

So I flashed the ROM via aroma and when it finished chose to not reboot so I could flash the S5 mod and the KT kernel.

But, my TWRP UI went a little wonky (this has been happening lately after an aroma flash where I don't reboot immediately) - the TWRP UI wasn't normally responsive and the screen went dim. I can see enough to see the TWRP UI, but the screen stays faint. I swiped the slider to confirm wipe of caches and nothing happened. So I turned off the screen and turned it on again and woke it up I saw the slider and swiped it again only to realize that somehow I was on the general Wipe screen (not the post flash one w/the option to wipe caches) and I had just chosen to wipe data! <eek!> (I need a DWIMS button - Do What I Mean, Supid!)

So the phone does exactly what I told it to do and wipes my data. Oh so much fun! Never hurts (except psychicly) to wipe data after re-flashing stuff, right?! :)

And in case anyone else tries this - I'm still getting FCs from Samsung Link, I wasn't trying to anything, but one just popped up.

Jkruse - Just an FYI: I've set the S5 Settings to default, but am still seeing the following intermittently, sometimes it works fine, sometimes not.:

1. Hit one Settings option and another Settings option loads. E.g., I selected "Sound" and got Screen Mirroring. Then selected Sound again and got another settings option (can't remember which). I just selected Notification Panel four times in a row and got Multi-Window instead. Then selected Multi-Window and got Lock Screen. :) It seems like it's completely confused now and none of the Settings options are going to the right setting. I'll reboot in a bit and see if that helps.

2. Hit back from the second incorrect Settings that came up and got a Settings FC.

If I need to, how do I reset settings to the S4 settings menu - it's not listed in the Default Apps settings. Oh, never mind, it should be in the App management section.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
this s5 settings thing kinda sucks it must be because verizon uses a different settings apk than others. I might have to scrap these they are not reliable you click on one thing and get something else
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mutti_wilson:
Great ROM. Im running the NC2 version and really like it. Stable and great batterh life. Coming from Hyperdrive RLS15 and don't plan on going back.

The only thing I'm missing from HD is surround shot for the touchwiz camera. I know the Google camera has photosphere and I have it I installed but I'd prefer one camera to 2 if possible. Any ideas or someone have a zip for that camera?

I'm hoping u can help, I'm running a international 4.4.2 Rom but can't get gps to lock and ur older fix doesn't work. Just wondering if u have a fix for 4.4? Sorry for posting here.

Have you tried opening google maps with gps on pick a location to navigate too start navigation leave maps open then toggle gps off and back onn from the pull down toggles.See if this helps
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shindiggity:
Yeah no luck, just says searching for gps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
Even after rebooting? I've had to do that on some builds to get a first lock. Then it was fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] iwearthebelt:
There's an app in the playstore called "GPS Status". After downloading it, go to settings, manage agps state, select reset. Do the same thing again but this time select download. It works for me when I can't get a signal on my S3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
I have been lurking this thread but felt is time to post.

I have been playing with this rom since it was released. I have ran NC2 and now NC5 and I Absolutely love it!

Great job jrkruse!

I am not running the S5 transformation but I am running the dark Phone, Contacts, MMS and I am running the S5 Calculator.

I have put the rom through the test...

I have GPS and Wifi on all the time, I have 4 email accounts syncing every 1/2 hr and I'm guilty of playing with my phone a lot :D

I am getting excellent battery life and the rom is as stable as any rom I have ran!

Use root explorer goto system/app and delete AccuweatherPhone2013.apk and WeatherWidgetDaemon.apk then reboot and see if that helps

My GPS works but I noticed the GPS lock icon is the same icon as the file download icon. Strange.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] beho86:
I am having the same icon issue?! I just flashed the Rom again, because the gps didn't work previously. The (download arrow) is replaced the solid gps icon, for some reason!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] snarlytaz:
Try going into App Manager for Settings and clear cache. (After setting S5 settings as default). Seems to sort it out, but I don't know yet that it "sticks" over a period of time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
Its a bug in the system ui of the s5 theme I just havent fixed it yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
I did this and havent had any troubles just go to settings at the top left click on the settings icon go down to the general tab click on it then in the system part of that tab go down and click and open each icon except the software icon that will fc. the you can go change it back to all and the settings will stick and work right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] beho86:
Hi Jrkruse, glad that you're looking at it. I don't have S5 Btw, just plain NC5 with S5 MMS, may be the MMS broke the icon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
I'll be damned, at least for the few minutes I tested that, it seems to work.

Would have tested more, but I'm busy. ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
It looks like it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
You using systemui with og battery mod?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] avid.aria:
Yeah, but it checks the subscription, I meant a way to circumvent that :D

Nonetheless a very smooth rom, thanks man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
I can confirm it asks for a subscription where it never used to before. I'm gonna go ahead and wager it's because it's an actual Verizon ROM and actually checks for it with your Verizon account. Is there something we have to do to get it working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Velocifero:
Also, the 'My Verizon Mobile' app requests root! It should be obvious but, DO NOT GRANT IT ROOT ACCESS!

According to a comment in Droid-life:

"They plan to monitor the rooted users to see if they are tethering without paying for tethering service. If you are, they will notify you of your infraction. If you continue to tether they will add tethering to your plan and charge you accordingly. Also if you bought a phone from Verizon less than a year ago, they will cancel your manufacturer's warranty if you're rooted........ This info came directly from Verizon when I called to ask about it."

Thanks for this. So far working well on the Dev Edition. Still putting it through its paces. Not getting the intermittent vibrations some are reporting.

BTW, which modem is in this build? I seem to be getting stronger signal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ascallop:
Thanks! worked like a charm :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
I don't believe he included the modem. But I'm on the MJ7 modem and my signal has also notably improved. They may have changed the way it was reporting.

This no auto rotate is drivin me bonkers :eek: It seems that the 'Dynamic' screen mode doesn't work for some reason, not that I use it...

Ah nice, this worked well.

lol well I guess that is an option. I do like the data widget tho, even tho I don't come close to my 2 GB.

Looks good! Flashed over the original S5 theme with out issues.

Only real annoyance now are the S Finder and Quick Connect shortcuts on the notification panel. Wonder if they could be removed or repurposed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
F

Jkruse, first, thanks very much, again!

There is an FC in the email app if you try to preview or save attachments.

Didn't go to bed yet, so flashed the new zip to see if it helped...Didn't help with the email FC.

Also had the issue with the PIN lockscreen not showing up initially...assume that means the S5 mod includes a kernel? Didn't realize that. I'll go flash my kernel.

Jkruse, is the email FC something that we'll likely have to live with, or is this something you might be able to fix?

And if I have to go back to the old email/calendar, can I flash the ROM, delete the email/calendar stuff from the S5 zip and then flash it?

Thanks!

I can flash any I9505 kernel as long as I have the loki-doki?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tkacer:
Yep - any 4.4 TW kernel!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpen:
I have 2 questions just purely out of curiosity.

1. I am on MDK still, if I flash NC5, do I have to flash the NC5 Modem?

2. If I flash the NC5 and the NC5 modem, and don't like it or what not and want to go back to my MDK backup will the NC5 modem mess anything up with that?

Again this is probably not going to happen, just not too positive how modems work with certain ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] heath2805:
No, modems are flashed separately. And yes you can go back to any rom after flashing this NC5 and still flash any modem. This rom will not effect the MDK bootloader.

Email works fine for me. I previewed attached images pdf's word docs and the all previewed fine. I downloaded them fine sent attachments fine

try deleting the email app and reinstall it here is link just install by clicking on it and install it that way instead of pushing it to system folder see if that works SecEmail_K.apk

there are no kernels flashed with s5 theme so as for the lock screen pin I use echos AEL kernel and it works fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Thanks, I'll try the delete/reinstall. Are you using an exchange account? Maybe it's only an issue for exchange. I remember someone else posted about attachment issues.

The PIN lock issue is odd. All I did was install the new s5 mod and it stopped working on boot like before we had a fix for that. Re-flashed KT 4/19, which always worked and it didn't help.

I'm going to re-flash the ROM and the S5 mod.

Ok, that fixed the PIN issue, but I still have the exchange FC with attachments preview or save. Jkruse, if you can confirm I'd you're using an exchange account that might help narrow this down. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] trmiv:
With this new 1.3 S5 theme is the S5 settings the only option? I noticed it opened by default and didn't ask which one
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
Added my Hotmail account to the Email app, forwarded email w/attachment to it, and badda boom, badda bing, FC w/my Hotmail account as well on any Preview or Save attachment.

So this is at least consistent across account type.

Time to wipe data and reflash, Jkruse? I have to have attachment access for work (could forward to Gmail but they frown on that). Really odd that this is happening to me and not you. Can you tell me what kind of email account you're using where it's working?

I'm thinking about flashing the AEL kernel you're using, but really don't think that could affect it.

I'd just let this go but I really like the S5 email/SPlanner combo. Just wondering, if I can't figure this out, could I use S4 email w/S5 SPlanner? I'd be OK with that, I really like the new view in the calendar where you see the month view in the top 2/3 of the screen with the current day shown in the bottom part of the screen in agenda mode that expands when you scroll the agenda.

Interesting - I also get an FC w/Polaris viewer when viewing the attachment from Gmail. The attachment opens fine in HP ePrint app, however, and Kingston Office. (It's a PDF.)

Also - I can't see an icon for Polaris viewer in my app tray - shouldn't I be able to see it? I believe the icon showed up there in the past...Polaris viewer does show up as an "open with" option when I select the PDF. Does this indicate that my S5 mod might not have flashed correctly? The polaris viewer apk is in system/app like it should be. Odd.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mochamoo:
Can confirm the FC with the email app and an exchange account. Same with Polaris viewer in gmail. Opens fine in gmail app using office suites pro. I only use the email app for exchange mail. Haven't installed the latest s5 mod file yet. To be honest I am not crazy about it and might reflash rom to get rid of it :) Will give it a while longer to see if it grows on me though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
Jkruse, if I want to use your s5 transformation zip is there any way I can omit the og battery mod? I actually like the stock touchwiz kk icon and the stock kk one included in the mod is a bit different.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] crossen0:
And am I the only one who experiences lag in the messaging app right after I send a text or picture? I can drag down the notification panel but hitting the back button takes a second for it to actually respond.

Edit: I wiped messaging data and it appears to have stopped acting strangely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 32BitWhore:
Thinking about trying out the updated S5 all in one zip but don't want to wipe data. Can it be flashed without a wipe or do I have to clean flash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
I rolled back to the sec email and sec exchange from the S4 ROM by copying them into settings/apps, renaming the S5 versions. Added the account and can view attachments again, thought not through Polaris viewer, which continues to FC.

So I still have the S5 calendar, which has a new view I like, so things are good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] egore93:
Wouldn't of been easier to just freeze /un-install polaris in titanium back up? Then just go to play store and download a pdf viewer program. This is what I did and it worked like a champ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
I use Google Quickoffice maybe that's why I don't have the fc issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Redflea:
I'm not fixing the Polaris FC, but the Email app FC.

The crash in the S5 email app I've been getting occurs before the point at which the external program to handle the attachment launches, or is even prompted for launching if a default has not been set.

The FC is immediate. As soon as I touched the preview or save options, the FC occurred immediately. Since it happened with Save, which doesn't try to open the attachment, it did not appear to be related to an external app.

Are you both saying you had that same FC In the Email app (not Gmail) as soon as you selected Preview or Save, and it went away when you froze Polaris? And do you have exchange accounts set up in the email app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] egore93:
I'm using gmail. I was having that problem but I just froze polaris and I'm using office suites pro. Now its working correctly when I need to view documents.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrkruse:
I'm only using a pop3 email account so exchange might be the problem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gadget!:
I think you're right, I have 4 email accounts... 2 pop3 and 2 IMAP and I have no issues with attachments.
