Keep up the work man!! I know you have a lot of support from us here and I know myself and it seems that many others will continue to use your ROM. Let me tell you something... I've been flashing different developers ROMs and kernels for a very long time and no one is ever as involved in the ROM or kernel thread as much as you. I can only imagine how much time you spend on cooking this ROM let alone the time you spend getting back to everyone's questions, concerns, etc. I appreciate your hard work and really do hope you keep it up!!

Some beer money coming your way on payday.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuyInDogSuit:
[MENTION=3011323]tp2215[/MENTION], I'd say definitely keep at it. AllianceROM still has a ton of bloat, and your slim ROM will be MUCH better in my opinion.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rfb813:
I agree!

I love this ROM, but is there any way to disable the OG Battery Mod? I'd prefer just stock, without that area of the status bar changing functionality (ie the right side of the status bar brings up the power menu when you drag down on it).

Thanks for your hard work. I hope you keep at it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mike28:
Tap on the icon like double tap it will open up the settings for you to change it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
I posted a version that had the clock mod removed but never updated the op. Search in the forums for it, I will try and update the op when I get home tonight.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] asimons81:
Is that version 2.1?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Richcar:
Yes the clock mod was removed in 2.1.

Edit I tried the rom from other side but I am back here all this miss is a few more mods and it will be on par or better than any other rom out there and this is my favorite thread tp is always there helping and answer our questions more than any other dev. Looking forward for the next update tp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] asimons81:
Thank you for clearing that up. Downloading now. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ecksor:
I've also checked the other ROM, and came straight back. To each his own, and It's great to have options.

At this point the idea of a slim minimalistic ROM with mods a-la carte looks even more appealing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
Thanks guys, I already split it off and will hopefully test it and upload it tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] undercover nerd:
we need the (enabled boot animations) mod they got I myself couldn't get it to work but I'm a beginner maybe I over looked a step. Other then that we seem on par with them I'll keep this rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
Yea, I will probably switch it on, not the next release but the one after to allow for regular boot animations and not the qmg stuff. The next release I'm working in splitting it up first and I will see how this goes before I start adding more mods and stuff.

I have a few ideas but am trying to go in a opposite and different direction then what is already out. The start I think would try to be a modular concept like I mentioned in the past. That would leave the rom small and fast and include only what you want it to include. The rest of the Roms load it up with stuff and then let you disable them. after you disable stuff though they are still there, taking up space and increasing the size of the rom while using up resources.

If anyone else had any suggestions let me know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] undercover nerd:
Yea having too much stuff is unnecessary it's like having a huge library that you'll never be able to finish reading so start small and grow as you go
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] MCoolU:
I figured it out. Just double tap the battery in the notification bar, then go to styles and choose no icon, and then restart the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] raw2000j:
Does this work on all roms cause im on alliance it it still doesnt work :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] undercover nerd:
I think tp said it should work and he was going to be adding it soon. The faux kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Purest:
Tried Alliance rom, I still like your rom mostly due to aroma and keeping it slim, Only thing I did like about alliance is that he did figure out the wifi calling & call recording, so I know you can make this happen tp!

For all the themeing that goes on in alliance I can already do most of it with xposed mods, not all but prolly 70% of them, I don't care for most, But I do like the option of having an AOSP clear button, maybe an option to look into adding into aroma. definitely an option to disable OG battery, for some reason it conflicts with wanam.

Anyways keep up the good work. You still got your fan base here,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] undercover nerd:
Yea the next build will be super slim base and optional upgrade packs. And as the op says this is mostly a request based community based rom. Yea alliance also has a team of experienced devs. Let's all do what we can to keep this rom a contender.

Anyone know if blaze kernel will work on Infinity and if it will break anything?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] a2thec:
Any idea if we are able to get the video call feature working on the international dialer? I tried installing another ROM from G900F (international device) on our G900T and it failed video call (not sure if receiving is able to connect using M919) stating "cancelled" in call log.

Can we add chrome to ultra power saving mode, as some other variants have it already stock but Tmo opted to remove.

Curious if we will be able to get lockscreen widgets back.

Is it possible to get an app into private mode?

I've read there is an OTA/KIES update for the G900F that has improvements for the finger scanner and some other optimizations.

Any idea when/if that is possible to integrate (or if it is a hardware update?

Is there a way to get the Task/ram manager from the GS4 on the GS5? I prefer to clear the ram as well as it seems to be a bit high ~70%

Also, suggestion as to how you could split up the rom package (if you haven't already figured it all out), you could do something similar to XtreStoLite on the G900F. One stripped ROM and one bloat refill ROM, or however you like.

For reference:

Yay!! When i started catching up on the thread and heard about beans I was worried you'd stop!!

I have an issue, when I turn my screen off I don't get any messages. Once I turn it back on, I get a bunch of messages all at once. How can I fix this?

I'm on 2.1 and did a clean flash.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] corelle:
Phone heats up o tree tty quick and battery drain anybidy else? I mean I got my zero lemon coming so battery is no problem but thr main thing is heat?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
I have to look into the video call and the chrome power saving mode, I dont really use either of these features so I never really noticed.

Eventually Im going to try adding an option for the aosp lockscreen. For the S5, samsung pretty much completely replaced the aosp lockscreen with there own so its impossible to add widgets to the samsung lockscreen. Most of the code is still there for the aosp lockscreen though witch is why alot of roms have the option and it would be possible to add it back.

From what I read, the update as of now is only for the international roms and I dont think that T-mobile has released the update yet for the base. If they do then I will try and update it asap to the new base. I did read that it includes camera and fingerprint improvements.

Good idea on the s4 task manager, ill look into it. The toggles should be there, if you did a dirty flash or anything they may have been removed. Do a clean flash and they should still be there.

Private mode will not work on any deodexed rom. Therefor it will not function on any custom rom. I have thought about the idea (not too sure if it will work or not) about having an odexed option where the system will execute a script post boot to re-odex the files after the mods and app selection have been added. I am really not too sure if it will work or if private mode will be usable again though. Ill keep you posted when I try it.

Thanks very much! I really appriciate it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
Try restarting the phone a few times. It may just be an app running in the background acting wonky. If not try reflashing since it may just be a bad flash. It seems to happen alot because of the media scanner or something running to hard in the background. Also, make sure you are running the stock kernel and not a custom kernel since that may be the issue.

Do you use power-saving mode where it'd turn off your wifi and/or data?

---------- Post added at 08:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 AM ----------

I'm not quite sure what you mean it goes back to 10 days ago. Do you restore using whatsapp or do you restore using TitaniumBackup? I use Whatsapp and never have problem. Before you clean install, did you perform the backup or are you relying on the auto backup?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] codee:
Are you using bluetooth or hardwired to play your music? My phone skips/cuts out during playback using bluetooth but the headphone jack is fine. I've had this issue since day one though when it was stock on multiple bluetooth devices so I figured it was software or hardware issues. Now that I've rooted and loaded a custom rom and kernel I'm wondering if it's hardware... Although the roms are still based off the official Samsung build so hopefully it's fixed later..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Purest:
Works great, No issues here, I'm on version 4 now, wifi calling works too.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Skyrocket2:
tp2215,

would you be able to add a mod to use NFC while either screen is off or lock screen is on?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Purest:
Every samsuck device I've owned has had music stutters over bluetooth, but only when screen is off. I've grown to get used to this, It doesn't happen a lot, I always thought it had something to do when phone tries to deep sleep.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] codee:
Never put 2 and 2 together that it may be due to the screen going off, I will investigate that out of curiosity when I get the chance. I didn't have the issue on my s3 or s4 though (stock Sprint).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Contivity:
Try this first. Turn off wifi (to make sure you're not using wifi calling), make sure you have mobile signal then turn off your screen. Use other device to send sms to you (either through Google voice or have a friend send you one).

There's also a setting in WiFi that turn off wifi when screen is off. I'm doing nandroid so I can't try to find it right now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Contivity:
Did you try my recommendation above? That's to test if the phone can receive SMS (which is not data dependant), with the screen off.

Also, my phone is back and the setting is located:

Settings ->Wifi->Advanced ->Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] MCoolU:
I think this worked. I have the screen off and I'm getting text now. Unless it has to be off for a certain time period to not get them. Not sure, but its working.

Also I still have the same problem I did before updating to 2.1. Can't receive mms on wifi, only on network.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Contivity:
Originally when you said messages, I'm not sure if you're talking about SMS, MMS, Skype, WhatsApp, Email or what. Now that we know it's MMS, then we can try to dissect and find the root cause of the problem. I'm not sure what problem you had before updating to 2.1, is it this same issue?

Try going to Settings -> (Under Network Connections) More Networks -> Smart network. Is this option turned on?

When you usually don't get the messages, is it during certain times only or all the time? Can you try to replicate the issue anytime you want? You might want to check if you have Settings -> (Under Personalization) Blocking Mode. Did you happen to accidentally turn this one on?

You guys know that clearing RAM on android is useless right? Free RAM is wasted RAM and will slow your phone down as apps will just have to keep writing to it.

Sent from my SM-G900T
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] BLuFeNiX:
+1 for this. Unless you are using 99%+ of your RAM, you're probably fine. A bunch of it is in buffers/cache anyway, which is not technically "free" RAM, but is effectively the same thing. The Android (Linux) kernel manages RAM in this way on purpose.

Hahahahah only have so much I can share, maybe TP will share a beer or two with you from my donation lol

Just want everyone to know I attempted to do a dirty flash from one version to another, at first it hung up on the initial boot but a simple restart fixed that issue. Everything is running very smoothly, now granted it has only been 5 hours but hey everything seems great and very snappy right now, will report back later.

TP I don't know if it is possible or not, maybe it's more like an Xposed module but it'd be cool if we or you could turn off those battery door, back cover messages that warn you to make sure to keep them closed so the phone remains water "resistant." Just a thought, I don't know how difficult that will be or if it is even possible.

Great work as always, sir!
