LAST HOPE WITH YOU GUYS

I flashed alexander rom some time ago and all works great.

1. Then I want to flash stock rom via odin from sammobile but i get the bootloop.

2. Then I tried another stock rom via odin bootloop again.

3. Then I tried an alexander rom again and bootloop.

4. Then I updated the BL and Modem and tried alexander rom again and still it doesnt boot.

What should I do? TWRP in installed. I made only recommended wipes from the first post before flashing.

Im using Odin-3.12.7. Don't know what else I could do.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
Which recommended wipes? Try wiping system data dalvik cache, i.e. factory reset.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] netox187:
I just recovered system by Kies that was a good idea to do it.

I have a problem and I'm unable to replicate with my second g900f.

Only with one g900f, same configuration, last rom update, I have the swiftkey keyboard causing random freezes, than phone restart.

I obviously made a clean install, but nothing.

I had to remove the swiftkey keyboard.

Is somebody using it with last Rom and experienced my problem?

Alexndr, I can't access the band Selection Main menu , is this because of a security patch? I go into the service menu with *#0011#, then top right drop down menu and select Back, then go back into the menu and select key Input and enter capital Q then OK. I again go back into the menu and select Key Input and enter 0000 then OK and wait 15 to 20 seconds but no MAIN MENU pops up. My wife has the Australian S5 G900I and I can get the Main menu up on that. Any ideas please.

Yes I tried phone info and was able to get in but band 28 is not available to G900F European models and as it is only software related I am think of putting the Australian modem in as that has the B28 700mhz apt band. I need it here as that band gives better signal and coverage around Australia.

I would like to know if any problems installing the Ozzie modem.

I was hoping that version with september security path will be relelased soon. Unfortunately, there is no ROM with september security path, even for top devices like S8/N8 ..

So let's hope that CQI4 release will solve at least bluetooth vulnerability :)

Work in progress with CQI4 DevBase :cool:
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Zytrel:
Thanks a lot for the update ... CQI4 running fine here after dirty install.

BlueBorne scanner indeed reports the device as being safe. But as we all know the detection method is kinda moot. Kernel image is exactly the same as in CQH1. I would have expected a true BlueBorne fix would have required a kernel level patch. But, we'll see. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] j1gga84:
I ask myself why samsung puts older modems in latest releases :confused:

we already had builds with CQC2 modem, dated 20.03.2017 which I guess is the latest one for G900F and CQB1, dated 01.02.2017.

CQA9 is dated 16.01.2017

So I ask myself if the more up to date modems had issues that samsung decides to go back to an older modem?

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] LeoJrC:
My phone is G900M, so Bootloader and modem are different. They were updated last month. Can I flash this ROM with them? I'm kinda afraid to flash a BL from G900F.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ginzo:
Thanks for the update Alexndr!

Dirty flashed over CIQ1, everything went well as always, but I decided this time to maintain original kernel instead of Boeffla as I noticed with CIQ1 random reboots while using SwiftKey keyboard.

Battery consumption is better than normal.

Thanks a lot!! :)

what is the difference between firmware: PHN-G900FXXS1CQI4 (18.09.2017 - 9493471) and PHN-G900FXXS1CQI6 (30.09.2017 - 9493471)?

Battery is draining fast i have new battery and when i have magma 9.7 rom the battery didnt drain so fast.any sugestions ?Mayby KERNEL?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
When you see battery drain you need apps to trap who is draining it. You can use BBS to check for processes and wakelocks.

You can think to debloat the rom to reduce apps launched (one of the most annoying, and useles from my point of view, is Samsung Push Service).

To limit wakelocks and alarms you can use amplify, but you need xposed.

I can say that after I discovered debloating and amplify, any ROM I tried arrives at night with about 20-30% of battery left with a medium usage.

Hello _alexndr, First of all, thank you for making this complicated work seem easy.

I would like to know how to add a custom Debloated list, I want to remove useless applications like baby crying and apps that I do not use at all.

By the way, why not create a list to remove KNOX from the system too. instead of just clearing SecurityLogAgent.apk?

The Rom would be cleaner instead of unnecessary junk

I have seen the "update-binary" file inside "devbase", I could you put the custom list there?

I would also like to know if the system.img and/or boot.img it brings is modified or is the original that the Rom Stock brings.

I could change the system.img and/or boot.img from S1CQI6 instead?

Thank you for your great work

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bbsc:
This message means that the kernel is modified (not signed) and has nothing to do with "tripping knox".

It happens when you install root, because MM needs a modified kernel for root to work.

It did not happen on LP, KK and so on because a modified kernel was not needed for root to work on LP and KK.

This can be removed if you install the ROM without root or remove existing one and revert to unmodified kernel.

Hello,

Long time since I haven't been on any custom firmware non rooted phone -> in 2015 I got corrupted eMMC memory (until today I don't know the real reason of that) so I was forced to replace my motherboard at Samsung service centre. Since that time I got my warranty renewed so I decided to not touch the phone (at least until it expires ;)).

To have long story short, after being 2 years on 100% stock phone (don't know how I survived that) I decided to get my phone customized again.

My choice was easy of course - after 2 years I am back on _alexndr's devbase rom which is in my opinion the best solution for debloated, rooted, stable close to stock rom.

Instalaltion went smootly: dirty flashed from TWRP recovery over my stock 6.0.1 firmware with current CSC kept and rooted with Magisk. Bootloader and modem updated from odin. No issues at all.

Thank you!

Edit: There is only small thing which I am not sure about - when for some reasons I would need to restore my nandroid backup which I made before (on older 6.0.1 release), will newly flashed bootloader be backwards compatible or should I flash back the old one?

Edit2: [MENTION=4182294]cloneme[/MENTION] thanks for kind words :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
Hi Many40,

newer stock firmware always requires to flash the new/corresponding bootloader.

I am not sure about the other way.

To be on the safe side, I would also flash the corresponding bootloader after flashing back an older stock firmware.

New bootloaders are compatible with the old ROMs is not necessary backward. Only update the bootloader for new releases.

Couple questions for you anyone if you would.

1. Can I install this ROM on SM-G900T, the BL is G900TUV1GQC2? 6.0.1

2. The latest release states it needs a different BL, can the BL be installed to an unlocked 900T?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Many40:
The best would be if you get reply from anybody who has your phone and was brave enough to try it ;)

Generally, as OP says it is based on stock SM-G900F firmware.

1. I don't recommend you flashing G900F bootloader on G900T phone -> you may very likely brick it;

2. I read some posts from s5 users who had a working G900T model (with G900T original bootloader) but G900F rom flashed on it

3. However, if you even succeeded with this, in my opinion you might be facing some issues with 3G/4G network operation as these two phones differ in some frequency bands for 3G/4G mobile data networks.

Bottom line:

I don't recommend doing this.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] mgp53:

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bbsc:
1. You definitely can if know how to (see screenshot attached).

It's a little tricky but possible.

The real problem is not the bootloader but the size of system partition which is a little smaller for "T".

2. It will work with G900TUV1GQC2 bootloader. You cannot flash "F" bootloader to "T" hardware.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Many40:
Hi,

Thanks for confirming para 2 from my previous post :)

But what about para 3? If he is going to use his phone in US then he should be fully able to take advantage of 3G/4G mobile data networks (some frequency bands differ between G900F and G900T).

In this case he might need to have G900T baseband which as far as I remember should be in line/compatible with RIL (Radio Interface Layer) libraries which are located in the ROM .........
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bbsc:
The subject firmware does not contain baseband. It's from "T", have a look at the screenshot above.

3G works excellent in my case.

Cannot say anything about 4G, it's a subject for tests. It's not a problem to replace RIL library, indeed. But LTE bands depend on NVRAM / baseband, ARAIF.

And you can always easily revert back to stock if you don't like this firmware.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Many40:
First of all it is not me but other user who asked for that. My phone is G900F.

I know that the firmware contains "F" baseband - not "T" but to have phone fully compatible with his carrier (T-mobile US) he might need to have "T" baseband plus RIL.

This link confirms that even the phone will work stable (including 3G mobile data) it will not work on LTE -> no compatible frequency bands):

https://www.frequencycheck.com/carr...ung-galaxy-s5-sm-g900f/t-mobile-united-states

The decision is on his side :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bbsc:
If you don't have SM-G900T, I can hardly understand what we're discussing.

I do have a "T" variant, I do use it with Alexndr's ROM installed as my daily driver.

I have several "V" variant samples with this ROM installed in my family and an "A" sample with this ROM is owned by my friend.

I have no "F"s here, that's why I refrain from advises about this variant.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Many40:
You made my day!

We both are just helping the same guy (@ mgp53) - you even quoted him so you should know that. I replied to him first and you the second.

As you, in your post recommended him to flash - I asked you to clarify some my doubts I had in my reply on that (related to LTE access) -> everything was just to provide the user the most reliable information (with all pros and cons).

I hope my English is clear enough :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bbsc:
So did you.

Glad to entertain you a little :)

Really, we both can say nothing about "T" and LTE in the US because we cannot test it there.

So, the user must decide, flash and test if he wants to.

But I can definitely say that SM-G900V with Alexndr's ROM installed has working LTE within the bands, defined for "V" variant.

So, we can logically assume the same for "T".
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Many40:
Thanks, I am glad too :)

Good to know that - thanks for info but ...

Knowing that G900V and G900F models have the same modem board type: MSM8974PRO (hardware), I would say that your G900V with Alexndr's ROM is working with the bands defined for "F" variant (supported by "F" baseband and RILs installed).

The key for your success is what carrier you are on - I assume not US Verizon but one of the European ones, aren't you?

From my logic:

1. Your case: Model G900V + "F" firmware + a carrier compatible with "F" bands = LTE operational;

2. @ mgp53 case: Model G900T + "F" firmware + US T-mobile (carrier not compatible with "F" bands for LTE) = LTE not operational.

It is my pleasure to chat with you :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
[MENTION=4567505]mgp53[/MENTION]: So if you are willing to try, please check and report back whether you could get 4G/LTE working in the US with the "T" bootloader and modem, and the "F" ROM.
