This is a stupid bug, but for me it's annoying. If you pay attention you can see that the text on the notification card is a little bit higher than normal. This happens only with expanded notification and after upgrading to 2.1. Any way to fix it?

Guys like you should work in design of things ;)

I think you can change it inside /system/build.prop :)

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] arktay:
if you don't have this bug and you are running 2.1 can you post your build.prop so i can find the differences xD maybe in private message
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] databoy2k:
It's not a bug. build.prop is the file that sets the name of the device; it gets overwritten in the installation of XtreStoLite with the one from the base of the ROM. Edgar doesn't build specific for the M; he builds for the F, which works on everything.

Grab the app "BuildProp Editor" from the store (it's free). Grant it root (necessary). Scroll down to the line "ro.product.model". Change the Property Value to "SM-G900M". Press save. Exit the app and reboot your phone. Afterwards it will report G900M.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] arktay:
Sorry guys i have confused the doubleways' message with the olaruionutadrian's one

i hope to do it! ahahah
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
Use a file browser and gain root access to /system/build.prop and you can edit the name in there. Make sure you set the file to read/write

Edit: ooops, didn't realize this has already been addressed, my mistake. :p

Hi, I have Canadian version G900w8.

I was on kitkat (complete stock).

I rooted.

I add philz recovery.

I ODIN the bootloader + modem (as insrtucted on first page)

(Booted into system to confirm )

I did clean wipe install and its just stuck on "Samsung Galaxy s5" screen for over 10 min.

I re-flashed it and its still stuck on the main screen. Boot animation hasn't shown up either.

What am I doing wrong? I can go into recovery.

(I forgot to make nandroid before flashing :( )

Question: some apps that are installed on internal device storage are creating files on my external SD card in a folder called Android. How do I prevent this from happening?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] PrinceMS:
Ya sadly re-download didn't do anything either.

This is where I am right now:

- ReRooted : http://www.androidrootz.com/2014/04/how-to-root-galaxy-s5-recovery-root.html

- Philz Recovery

- CF-Root (ODIN) : Puts back stock recovery?

- Philz Recovery (ODIN) again

- Re-Flashed bootloaders / modem (from #4 post on first page for W8 variant)

- Copy ROM on external card. Install.

Just gets stuck on Galaxy s5 screen.

I think I want to go back to stock now. Do I just flash the stock "rogers" lollipop zip? "G900W8VLU1ANCA_G900W8OYA1ANCA_RWC.zip"
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
Not meaning to offend you but are you selecting the correct kernel during install? Also, make sure that the modem and bootloader actually got flashed, sometimes they don't flash properly.

I wouldn't go back to stock, find a way to make it work, we are here to help.

Stock firmware should be like this: filename.tar.md5

And ANCA is not lollipop, it's kitkat....

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S 5 (SM-G900W8)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] PrinceMS:
Yes I am picking the correct one.

I flashed it twice first time - logged into my kitkat Os and confirmed with Android Terminal and in Settings.

Ya I know ACNA is kitkat - I am trying to go back to stock so download Rogers stock ZIP firmware (that contains the tar.md5 file). Even if I have upgraded bootloader / modem, it was working with kitkat firmware , so thinking the stock should make the phone work?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
If you flashed the lollipop bootloader and modem and still booted into Android Kitkat, it means that the bootloader wasn't flashed properly. A lollipop bootloader should not allow you to boot into kitkat. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

---------- Post added at 01:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------

Go to download mode from the device powered OFF = home button+power button+volume down
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
that's correct. Flashing the bootloader and modem only works fine if you pull the battery first, ghen boot into download mode and flash the correct versions.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] PrinceMS:
I am in downlaod mode. It doesn't tell me the bootloader ver here. Do you mean - I should re-flash it?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
correct! Did you power off first?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
Yes, reflash the modem and bootloader but first power off the phone, then go into download mode by using the 3-button combination of home+power+volume down then volume up
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] PrinceMS:
Pulled battery for at least 30 seconds (did it for 10 seconds the first time). Re-flashed bootloader + modem.

Now we are on Boot animation! I have a feeling its alive :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
One thing to note, when using Odin, only have the "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" boxes ticked and nothing else. One of the boxes near the top of the app should turn green if everything went well and the phone will reboot.

K we are up and running yayyy ... but it is using almost 1.0 gig of RAM without loading anything. I thought this uses ~400mb at stock?

What can I do to reduce system's RAM usage?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
No, no, no, no..... It's 477mb of storage not RAM..... what you are seeing is fairly normal, at least for me.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] PrinceMS:
Isn't this a bottleneck for s5? When I load all the other apps I want it goes to almost 1.6gb minimum.

I know iPhone has some magic up it sleeves and you never seems to run feel it slow because of using too much RAM - I feel Android stutur at times when RAM is being used to such high degree?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
right, compared to a full blown rom XtreStoLite consumes about 300mb less ram which are now available for other usefull stuff :D
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
While using XtreStoLite 1.5, I've never, ever had the phone be sluggish or stutter. Can't say the same for 2.1 because I've never really used it much.

I'm trying to remove SD write access by modifying /etc/permissions/platform.xml. Problem is, editing the values doesn't seem to prevent apps writing to SD card and now Bluetooth doesn't work. I removed the edits and now bluetooth doesn't work at all. Good thing I made a TWRP backup. I guess I shouldn't be messing around with things like that.

Anyone know how to prevent writing to the SD card, even by apps?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
I hope I got your request right. Most users want to remove the sdcard write restriction that's why Edgar removed it by default. Anyway if you really want to revert this, the following article decribes what needs to be patched to enable or disable it. http://www.droidviews.com/restore-write-capability-to-external-sd-card-on-kitkat-manually/
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
Correct, I don't want apps to be able to write anything on the SD card. I tried the method suggested in the link but an "Android" folder is still being created on the SD card because some apps are still accessing it.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
Propably some App developers found already a way to bypass the Android restriction without this patch. If these apps are using specific folders you could change the permissions of this folder to read only. Why do you want to deny write access?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
Just for aesthetics and control. I'd rather have an Android folder on internal storage and not have anything write to my SD card. Two system apps that write to the card are the gallery and google play services. I'm searching for a good permissions manager program to straighten things out.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
Got you. I personally don't care where the data is written to except for my GPS app and all photo video related apps. They should use the external sd which I'm using folder mount for. You could do the same to redirect apps to write rather to internal then to external storage
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zarpanzur:
I might give that a try and if worse comes to worse, I'll just mark the folder as hidden..... out of sight, out of mind. :)

Android is not windows.

RAM is very fast memory. System is loading as many things to ram to avoid lags and slowdowns.

More ram used is better!!! Ram management is dealing with everything.

Please stop everybody complaining about this thing. It is completely normal!

You can Google it "ram management in linux".

First versions of sammys lollipop had more noticeable memory leak than boc7 and this is a reason why it was lagging.

"Do NOT restore app data or system apps with Titanium backup, only the apps self.

Restoring App data or System app can cause many problems."
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] johan81:
You can restore app data with Titanium, though there are apps that do not work properly after that, such as Gmail as I have experienced. This is more a warning to prevent people from complaining with problems that are not due to the ROM itself, which unfortunately happens all too much here on XDA.

If the data restore with Titanium doesn't work, you can simply throw away the data and try another way of data restore or start over.

The ROM should work on the R4, but I'm not sure about the data connection (no one reported that it worked on this model yet..)

I can send you an beta by PM with an G900R4 option, so that the correct build.prop and CSC gets installed if you want?

So that you can test out if the data connection works on this model.

Which recovery are you using on your G900I?

In the first post you can find an CWM version that's specially made for the G900I/S/L models.

(Direct link to it: https://www.mediafire.com/?mlgpzplchqchxhq, Flash with Odin!)

Also with the next update of the ROM I will include much newer G900I kernel and NFC fix (Based on a newer base firmware)
