I decided NOT to wimp out. Currently Odin back to total stock firmware and ROM. Waiting for it to finish installing, then I'm going to run some basic tests, including MMS over wifi etc, speedtests using the stock NCH modem etc. Then will Odin back to BF6 stock everything and compare. Then will move on to kernels and roms :rolleyes:

Edit: Just for review, I am a bit blown away by how well straight stock runs. Posting Phone info as well as AnTuTu bench and Speed test using total stock setup. I waited for Playstore stuff to quit downloading my apps, then immediately ran the tests. No tweaking, no Nothing. Just straight test and the phone is smooth as butter, no lags and no issues with a few calls I made as well as no issues with data or mms over wifi. Hmmmmmm

Edit: OK back to full on BF6 firmware and stock ROM, via Odin. Wifi calling works fine. Call quality fine. MMS over wifi fine. THat's all for now.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] sum1one:
OK,

I went and just tried it just because. I went and flashed the NF6 Stock modem for sh** & giggles to see if that helps any with the hang ups and so froth. I will report more later as i get home.

Edit: I didn't have to get home to know that I'm still hanging..... I do not know whats up. I did a full wipe and all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
Since I went thru the Odin shuffle from stock back to NF6 I have had the following issues and where I now am at. As I last posted, stock kernel, stock NF6 everything worked. As soon as I moved on to any NF6 based custom ROM, mms over wifi with wifi calling enabled generated a Network error. Turn off wifi calling and it works fine. I spent all day trying various NF6 based ROMs. All did this to me. I just flashed the StockRooted TMob NF6 ROM. Trying to send an mms with wifi calling enabled generated an error. Starting to tear what hair I have left out. Same Stockrooted TMob NF6 with Blaze Kernel. MMS with wifi calling enabled works. Now one would think that this proves a kernel issue.. But I don't believe that since looking back to my last posts, after I odined to stock, then Odined back to latest NF6 everything, including stock kernel, that worked. It was ONLY after I started flashing alternate ROMs did this start to be an issue again. So for now, I am going to nandroid my stock ROM working with Blaze. Then try two major theme apps that I like. The Alliance standalone them and the Blackandcolors theme which in my opinion has the coolest icons and themeing I have seen in a long time and the OP is about to update to a version 2 from the current 1.1.

EDIT: Well all I can say is Blaze kernel and no issues with mms and wifi calling enabled. Either intermittent network errors or constant message saying network error with KT 6/22 Kt 6/28 Faux rc2 V5 or Chronic, if trying to keep wifi calling enabled. Turn it off and works for the most part.

No idea on why this stuff works for some and not others. Has to be some sort of setup on individual phones causing issues. Not going to Odin back to stock anymore. Non conclusive other than stock worked and issues started up again as soon as any custom ROM loaded.

Currently using Bean stock rooted kltetmo BF6 with all BF6 firmware and Blaze v15 and the Black and colors theme with assorted xposed modules running OK.....for now.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] sum1one:
ok , so what I have done is that I went and re-flashed the stock modem and after I went ahead and flashed blazed ver.15 and so far so good. I will find out for sure when I get home to try the WiFi out. I have been learning a lot and trying to figure out things on my own. That is how we learn... for the most part haha

I do thank everyone who has helped me including yourself and much thnx to [MENTION=4395895]BeansTown106[/MENTION] and to the people who made Blaze.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
I gave up. Just fresh installed the International version. No problems. Only extra so far was to edit epc to fast tmobile APN and reboot. I just need to use my phone for the next few days with stability. Then I can play again. My daughter in the US Navy coming home for first time since she enlisted back in December :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] zombieplanalpha:
Tell your daughter that some guy you don't know said he appreciates her service and the time away from her family that she has given up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
That is really super appreciated. Being a VET myself, it's nice to see patriotism....something sorely lacking by a few today.

End..thread drift...Thanks again. "You make me Proud!" <<<how I end my texts to her

I'm in LA/OC area and having problem with MMS. After some troubleshooting, I changed the APN protocol from IPv6 to IPv4 then it works. Anyone else having similar issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] darren.wlsn1:
i have no mms issues and mine has always been on v4, i live in pa

maybe i spoke too soon, seems now sms is not working 100%
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] abovenbeyond:
I'm not sure how or what I did, I installed the NB3 and all seemed ok, I played around with settings n such, checked out various themes (under Alliance manager *choose theme) there were like maybe 20, anyway... now they are ALL gone... I did not purposely delete any, odd thing is that I even did a full factory reset, still after reinstalling the themes are gone... wtf did I do? And how can I get them back if a clean install isn't?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rockingondrums:
My texts this morning were coming in extremely delayed. The problem seems gone now. I wonder if it was a T-Mobile problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Lostatsea23:
Hey all, just ordered the tmo s5 to use on at&t. I had it when it first came out and the device kind of lagged, can I assume this ROM really fixes these issues?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mike28:
That's weird I have not experienced any lag even when I first set up the phone. Once you root and install this rom it's smooth sailing after that bean does an amazing job.

Notification bar overlay

Beans! Just wanted to know if there is a fix for this overlay issue that i've been having? Haven't had any other problems except that one! :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Goldie:
The double clock will be fixed in next update I guess. But dude... How many battery infos you need? I can see 5 on that screen all saying the same thing!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnnytraveler:
Anyone using qi charging not being able to see charging voltage? I use to be able to see the incoming charging voltage (mv) while my s3 was charging. I can't with my s5. Is there a widget or app that I can use instead of android tuner (what used to work on my s3 running kk) that will show incoming wireless charging voltage?

Sent from my Alliance S5-900V.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rockingondrums:
I use Galaxy Charging Current Lite to see how many mAhs are being pulled by the phone. I discovered an old Motorola cable was only supplying 500 mAh to the phone even when plugged in to AC.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] KillaCon22:
After you do a factory restore it removes the alliance app and you have to flash again to get it back..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calibachrome:
Awesome ROM, two issues that maybe you guys can help me with. One, can't get my Bluetooth device to be visible and second the Samsung update keeps popping up in the notification shade but when I click it it does nothing but freeze the phone for a few moments. Other than that, working great!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Andyn:
Any/all other hardware, radio (WiFi, Bluetooth, tethering), data, mms (picture messaging), battery drain issues can be solved by simply flashing the G900TUVU1BNF6 firmware.

Lazy way: search and download the odin/twrp flashable NF6 firmware/modem, wipe cache/dalvic, flash firmware, reboot, wait, reboot.

Better way: search/download NF6 firmware, pull battery for 30sec after a proper shutdown, full wipe data/cache/dalvic, flash firmware, reboot, wait... to ensure u don't run into other weird issues... after 5min of leaving the phone to boot, properly shutdown, pull battery for 30sec, full wipe data/cache/dalvic, flash B3 rom again (yes, I know), let it boot for 5 min. Reboot and prosper with full glory of this rom.

Do not install Xposed Framework, or restore apps with TiTanium Backup, and possibly Busybox cuz they will not play nice and will cause lots of force closes. I'm still experimenting with these to find the culprit. Be warned.

All credit goes to Beans for an awesome rom and his detailed instructions on the OP (which i highly recommend anyone who's having any issues) to read, follow before flashing this rom. Most issues are from user error.

////ANDY
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Andyn:
Tested this rom with NF6 firmware for 4 days...solid. WiFi, WiFi calling, Bluetooth to multiple devices including Galaxy Gear 2 smartwatch, home and car stereo AD2P all works solid without any hiccups. In a small town with LTE and results below. Notice battery. My day starts 6:30am of heavy use, email/social push notifications, web browsing, pictures, video recording, downloading, streaming media, Bluetooth and connected to Gear2 watch till 11pm. Can't wait to test WiFi tethering and all the other fun stuff T-Mobile discourages.

////ANDY
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Jleech330:
Isn't that what the OTA battery fixed solved? I flashed that and haven't had that problem since.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] KillaCon22:
Had a issue with getting texts while WiFi calling is enabled. Has anyone figured a work around for the issue or am I just gonna have to wait for B4? I thought i had fixed the problem if you guys recall a few pages back but the other day I left my house and as soon as my phone wasn't on my WiFi I received about a half a days worth of texts at once lol:confused:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] scorchedsky:
All of the lockscreen effects except "Ripple" seem to lag pretty bad. Could this be from increasing the ripple "swirliness"? For example, color pop seems like it pops out further than on stock, but the pops lag, instead of moving smoothly... The ripple is perfectly lag-free, though. Does this happen for anyone else?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calibachrome:
Both of my issues fixed themselves. Rebooted a couple of times and both Bluetooth and Samsung accout fixed. Quick question though, I see that having xposed installed and using some of their features may cause problems so I haven't yet, however has anyone used them without issues or used them with issues? Just curious on what you all have experienced. Other than that this ROM is the Sh@t. Super customizable and lightning fast!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
I have odined back to stock...then Odined again ...now three times to all BF6 firmware. Yes, initially all works, then the weirdness of the data issues creep back in. Wi Fi calling enabled..killing mms is most definitely repeatable for me. This is NOT user error. I have been around the block pretty much around here, as you can see by my postings. So I would be careful on how you word or point fingers. Yes, reading OP and following directions helps many issues. But some issues are there. It's not just me. And I have proven this at least to my self, by simply wiping the whole phone and starting over as I stated. I currently am using an International ROM, no reason to say which one, and have a rock solid working setup, that has for the most part zero issues. Yeah. no wifi calling. But I can live without that aspect for now in return for knowing that all my data stuff is going thru just fine, I have no issues with callers hearing me. I have been using Titanium Backup since my extremely early days of my Nexus One back in 2010. My TIBackup is actually a MoDaCo Plus version for all those that remember those days. I have zero issues restoring apps with TIBackup. Yes, I only restore apps, not data, and actually, several system apps work quite well with restoring, if you are judicious. Just saying that something with BF6 firmware allows some sort of "interaction" to occur that causes the data issues I have experienced. My 2c :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Andyn:
Cool, sounds like u got it figured out. Thanks for sharing.

////ANDY
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
No ...Not really cool. I haven't figured it out. I only know I am not the only one experiencing these issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mrimage:
What rom are you using my data keep disconnecting, i have to put phone in airplane mode are restart phone, i try different rom same thing
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
All the ROMs based on NF6 have caused me these issues. it's not right away either. Usually when I clean install, they all work fine. And NO...I am NOT installing any Xposed modules. It happens with any Kernel. I am currently on an International ROM....Xnote V3 and no data drops. I cannot point any fingers at any one ROM. I realize that many users here state they have zero issues. Again, I have tried all the solutions posted. It is extremely time consuming to do the Odin shuffle too, but I did go the distance. And this happens before I use any third party apps. I can't ex;plain it. It's just a PITA is all :(

And I am not pushing any one ROM being better than another. I only decided to install XNote because I just wanted to try something different.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mrimage:
Im on tmobile will it show lte are just 4g
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] dynospectrum:
4g lte
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mrimage:
I'm on it now but showing 4G what kernel you running? I can't get the 4G lte
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] bitnerd:
This is totally an aside but what/where is the app that does the cpu percentages on the notification drop down? I would like to get that feature on a tablet that I can't run this ROM on

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mrimage:
I thought you say u using the xnote rom in the international section
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] sum1one:
Okay everyone to having WiFi calling issues. This is what I have done and seems to be working so far.

What I did is flash both stock nf6 modem and kernel tars via Odin 3.09 and so far so good
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
I was the one using XNote currently. And unless I use an xposed module, it uses 4G instead of LTE. I really don't care. I know for a fact I get LTE connections.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] AACThaKid:
i know this is more than likely a stupid thing to ask but where can i get the TWRP or Philz at?, i tried google with adding my phone info but i get no where

and also what world you recommend?

okay thanks

sorry that i do not know much about this.......i ended up getting this phone a few days back, did not know much about it other than it was clean ESN, and how new it was, i only paid $32 for it

i got it all done, thank you all for the help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] strker45:
Hey would it be possible to add a feature where you could connect to a Wi-Fi network for local access like file sharing, chromecasting or airplay and simultaneously use mobile data for internet access?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
Good luck on whatever the procedure is. Been thru many a surgery the last few years. Luck to still be here too :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Lostatsea23:
I don't mean to sound needy at all but is there a mod or any way to have the stock android recent on this ROM? It seems like the multitasking switcher comes up slow at times. At least on the stock rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] butterfff:
Do i have to be on NF6 to install this rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
It would be best. Plus VoLTE won't work on anything but. Or is there a reason you don't want to update to the latest firmware/bootloader etc etc?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] butterfff:
I will update right now thanks. Also will the other Alliance Theme Choices Rom work with 4.4.3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
Not sure what you are asking. You have Alliance TMobile and Alliance International. International has Glass and AOSP theme as long as you use Rom Customiser and Flash from Internal SD. If you are asking something else, maybe someone else can chime in. International doesn't use TMobile firmware, so no WiFi calling, no VoLTE but no reason to change firmware either :)

Edit: You can certainly flash any of the available ROMs here or International S5 site using latest NF6 firmware too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] butterfff:
I just updated to NF6 and was able to keep root, the other Alliance Rom I was talking about was this one http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=7412
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calibachrome:
Two questions: first what's up with this ROM and xposed? Just curious why xposed is linked in the settings but OP says not to use it. Also, first couple of days on this ROM I had great battery life, however the past 2 days I've noticed it draining a lot quicker with the same amount of use. Anyone experience or experiencing this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] km8j:
I just upgraded from b1 but can't wake with the home button now. How do I fix this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] moose1313:
Custom settings/lock screen mods/wake with home key. Make sure it says enabled which is for me no check mark. . Might have to toggle it to enable
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calibachrome:
It was disabled for me by default although in the settings it was enabled. I had to check it then uncheck it for it to work properly. Since then no issues. Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] cdjaney:
OK.... Been reading some mixed info about mobile network randomly disconnecting for some. I started seeing the 4G/LTE indicator pop up a lot in the past few days despite me being on Wi-Fi and despite me not even really actively using data at the moment (see pic). That sent me looking and I see that "Mobile Network" seems to show disconnected for very long periods of time under battery stats (see other pic).

Any idea if this is normal? I don't remember noticing either of these cases on stock.

If it matters.... Rooted, unlocked T-Mobile S5 on At&t network. Also, I don't think I'm missing any messages etc necessarily, but the 4G popping up while Wi-Fi is on regularly is a new one on me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] em0ney14:
Do you have "smart network switch" enabled under WiFi settings?

Only thing i can think of.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] cdjaney:
I always keep that off..... BUT I'm going to toggle it on and off again just for kicks (since that seems to be the trick for some custom settings sometimes) and see.... Still doesn't seem to explain Mobile Network Signal disappearing in battery stats... but....

And I didn't even finish typing this post and I saw the 4G flicker into the status bar (after I'd toggled the setting) sitting beside my router. :( I really don't want to reset and start over.,...:(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calibachrome:
I'm having the same issue. I've tested with smart switch on and smart switch off. Perhaps that's the cause of the battery drain I've been experiencing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] followinginsanity:
If you are able to pull a logcat after you experience this behavior, it would be helpful in tracking down the cause.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] steve97ta:
Try turning off voice over lte in the dialer settings. It goes away when i toggled it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] calibachrome:
Yep that worked. I didn't even know that was enabled. I don't even have VoLTE in my area yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
If you Have VoLTE enabled and you see those little red green arrows horizontally, then you DO have VoLTE in your area. Tmobile has been rolling this out and NOT updating the official list of cities. The arrows show up with custom kernels, BTW...not stock, AFAIK.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] p-slim:
Finally an answer. So many people kept saying they were on stock rom completely and getting those arrows. I'm in a VoLTE area and have never seen those bars, I guess that's the answer why
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
Yep. Just install any custom kernel. Seems that's my daily thing lately playing around with all the latest KT...Blaze and Chronic.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] KingVeto:
Dude. Thank you. I wanted to know why I magically had new signal icons in my status bar. It was driving me crazy. Bonus for having VoLTE and not even knowing it!

i still cant send mms over wifi, no clue why but im on NF6 stock kernel and NF6 modem, just looking for suggestions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] steve97ta:
Try going into wifi call settings and selecting mobile network as the preferred network. I don't use wifi calling but it's working for me currently and I've tried that on my note 3 and it works
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] darren.wlsn1:
Ya i dont use it either but i will try that setting, ty
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Docmjldds:
I am convinced there is a bug yet to be discovered. I have had these issues intermittently with NF6 based ROMs on TMobile. I have odined back to stock original firmware. Odined again to NF6. Works initially re-mms over wifi. Then stops. I have been reporting this now for weeks here. I realize I am dealing with an intermittent issue which doesn't seem to affect all users at any one time. That said...I stand by my findings. I have tried every kernel imaginable. I have used stock everything. When I initially install from scratch again, it works. Then give it a day or so and you get the Network error issue. Until someone does some serious debugging on this, I personally would NOT even try to use wifi and MMS. And sometimes I need to add that it is limited to having wifi calling enabled. Turning that off sometimes helps. It's just a weird issue that st least for me, has me beat :crying:

And please, I do always do super clean installs. I have even gone as far as totally scrubbing the phone entirely, formatting everything including my internal SD to rule out any possibility of file corruption. So please don't give me the user installations issue cause, for those that want to chime in on that respect. Been around the block too long on XDA to NOT know how to do a proper install.

Off soap box ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] sum1one:
Well I was doing some reading before my surgery and to my understanding, it is a T-Mobile issue. I'm sure we may see another Ota shortly
