[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
This ROM is awesome. Great job OP seriously. ... This is the best my phone has ever been so far. Not one issue. Performance, battery life, and stability IS GREAT. Thanks for.putting in the time. Looking forward to your next piece of art.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
[MENTION=4047741]GDofWR420[/MENTION] said best "It runs not so good", for several reasons

1. this rom is deodexed, art has an extremely dificult time with deodexed roms.

2. it's tempermental at best even on a good day you could expect several FC's depending on the app

3. Google did not intend it to be used as any type of daily driver setup

if and when google goes mainstream with A.R.T. i will look to re-enable it in my roms, but at this point it does not look like that is going to happen anytime soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Well, as a teaser all im going to say is the next "piece of art" (in it's planning stages right now) will be in cooperation with another (Well known) developer from this forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Thank you for better explaining why a.r.t. is not working.

I'm still on bo3 awaiting the gold release. I'm out of town so I don't want to risk messing up my phone as I'm not near a computer.

Here's the job im on, it's been like 104 degrees out here in south texas.:cool: im electrical apprentice if anyone cares to no.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
One thing I have noticed since flashing is that when watching youtube or even using beautiful widgets the videos sometime freezes or the time on the app stops updating. I'm assuming ii should do a complete wipe before flashing again?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
rom itself does a complete wipe during the flash process and restores your /data/app folder without restoring coresponding data so it gives you the cleanset flash possible
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
I haven't noticed anything of that nature. I will test out both apps now. Do you have any exposed modules? I haven't installed Wannam on this ROM or any others I've installed. It seems to make things act funny. I will report back any findings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
I don't even know what Wannam is unfortunately. I've done a reboot and still the same issue. Not sure what it is maybe I'll reflash
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
Nope.....YouTube is just fine. Beautiful widgets also good over here.

Maybe it was a network thing.....The ROM to me has no issues so far. Its solid.

Maybe you should do my restore thread HERE and then Root, Busybox, Safestrap, Install this ROM again.

That is really a clean start. :) If i ever have issues, its after flashing about 3 or 4 different ROMS.

Then I do my restore thread and all is perfect again. N B S
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
Sounds like a plan. Probably what I need to do. Thanks for everything and thanks to op for this perfect room with the awesome customizations
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] WizeGuyDezignz:
Will this next "piece of art" also be coming to the regular S5?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
guess you'll all just have to wait and see...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] berniesteven:
It's not nice to tease. ?

SM-G870A Peace
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FtaWolf:
Well it's been about two weeks now. This room starting to make me itch. Guess I'm going have bite bullet this weekend & install ss & this active Rom. Only thing that's been stopping me so far is I don't have win box if I mess up.

At&t how about unlocking Bootloader on SM-870A ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
I smell something cooking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] bri315317:
Its hot in the kitchen!!! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Hope it doesn't burn :eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] bri315317:
When we scorch the pot, we toss it out and make it again. No worries.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
Brian. I just tricked my Co workers Note 3 out with 5.0...They love it. We all knew you were better than Drakymcb lol. What a joke. OP can't wait for the release!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Yep first batch burnt beyond recognition, second batch in the oven
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
OK I finally got a chance to stretch out the battery on this rom and I got really great results.

Made like four phone calls, none real long. Watched two episodes of dexter sent a few text and of course peeking in and out of the att s5 forum here on xda.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Nice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Also just an FYI I didn't turn on power save mode till 18%.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
mmmm mmmmm mmmm what evers cookin sure smells good cant wait for it to be done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] gregsarg:

It's gonna be nice I'm sure..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Annndddd Heeeere weeeeee gooooo!!!

OK, I think we have teased you all enough, It's time to let every body know just exactly what we have been talking about. Sooo here it is.​

!!!Coming Soon!!!​

In the meantime here is a short list of features

Based off of NG2 International OEM Firmware

4-way reboot with reboot to SS Recovery

de-odexed

de-knoxed

minor de-bloating

permenant device status official

there will be more...

Please remember this is a joint venture so make sure you go show your thanks to [MENTION=3105374]bri315317[/MENTION] Dynamik Kat as well. :good::good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] bri315317:
This great because now there will be no need for s5a specific roms anymore. During the flashing process, your device will be detected and rom will automatically be modified based on your device.

Fwiw, I have successfully turned my s5 into a s5a and was confirmed by [MENTION=5031008]LuckyColdJohnson[/MENTION] today.

Minor issue needs resolution but proof is in the pudding. It works!!!

Stay tuned for future development from us. :)

And big thanks to [MENTION=3758230]cstayton[/MENTION] for partnering up to bring this to you guys.

So if I read op right. Then I don't wipe system? And on bo3 through v1.1.0 there's no need to wipe data as Rom install should take care of this also & restore data on install correct?

At&t how about unlocking Bootloader on SM-870A ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
Correct the ROM when flashed will do a wipe so back up what you can.

On install went fine. But having little problem with Usage Manger. Want open wondering what other app it looking for? Maybe I Uninstalled one to many.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] bri315317:
No need for you S5A guys to feel left out anymore, We have a 100% complete working conversion for you S5A guys to use a S5 rom without losing your active button. :highfive:

One rom to work on both devices with no extra steps on your part, flash and go.

Coming soon to a ROM near you ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] zeddock:
This is looking cool. Sounds dependable enough even I couldn't mess it up!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FtaWolf:
Well I didn't want enable xpose. But just couldn't take anymore. So bit dust.

Install went good couldn't ask for any better. Got few mods for xpose that help out some of features. Loaded different weather. Got alt char for keyboard back.

Think I finally got quad window support working.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] gregsarg:
Very nicely done Sir....g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FtaWolf:
Going through build.prop shows two lines for ro.securestorage.support = true & one for false. Is there need for both are should there just be one for "false" ?

I commit out line for "true".

This was on v1.1.0 rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
ill make sure it is correct in the upcoming rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] berniesteven:
If you need a tester just holler.

Got my S5 Active the other day, and wasted no time in rooting, and loading this ROM up. Works beautifully! Thanks for putting it together!

No problem just curious if anyone else has noticed cpu3 staying @ 1190. Never dropping down to 300 like rest are down to offline except for cpu0.

Question: how do I backup/restore my desktop layout, so that after flashing to the new release, I don't have to re-organize my desktop?

What does the performance stability patch do?

Thanks for the v1.1 ! Can't wait to install it.

Use tibu to bu touchwiz or whatever launcher you are using.

Private Mode

I can't seem to get Private Mode to work after installing v 1.1.0

It let me create a password but everytime i try to turn it on and put the password it always says "Failed to Enable Private Mode Try Again"

Is anyone having the same issue?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
private mode is disabled as well as A.R.T i just didnt get the menu option removed from settings thats why it fails

What's the Eta on this?! Can't wait to try it!

SM-G870A Peace
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Unhived__Mind:
Lol....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jlczl:
ROM'ing can be addictive! At any rate, ETA requests for updates and the like are usually frowned upon here. Rightly so IMO since the developer isn't charging for his work. We're just grateful there developing for our device and they will get to it when they get to it. ☺
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Unhived__Mind:
Thanks, I'm well aware of how stuff works around here... I just got over zealous...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Raccroc:
Is there a way to get rid of the 3minit battery mod? I just want the default battery, or at the very least, a battery looking icon without text in it (text tends to be to small to quickly and comfortably read while at the same time covering up the "fill" bar making that difficult too...it is, as I like to call it...conterproductive redundancy).

Oh, and it turns out, uninstalling it is a bad idea...

Alternately, is there a way to disable home key wake on B03?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
ok, i do understand some people dont like some mods, thats a given accross any platform. that being said i tend to include mods that are most often requested i.e. the battery mods (3minit happens to be the best out out there) it is integrated into the rom and yes if you uninstall it you will break systemui. unfortunately i have a lot of projects going on so am unable to catter to every request i get for "can you do this" or "can you do that". i hope you understand and as time permits i will put together a return to stock mod and place it in post #2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
One of the Xposed framework battery mods may do what you're wanting.

Unity ROM Update

Sorry was going to upload today but rn into a few glitches, we are working to get them cleared up and hopefully wont take to long
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Unity ROM is Live and available for download

go here for the Unity ROM thread (It will be moved to development thread soon)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55300085&postcount=1

I apologize for the thread being placed in the wrong section that was my fault and I have pm'd a moderator to move it into the developer section.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
Thanks!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Raccroc:
Thank you for the response and I understand completely. My intent was never to be critical of the work you are doing (and I hope you did not read it that way), it is purely a personal preference of my own. As I tend to dislike ROMs with theming as a rule, I rolled back to B03.

Also, 3minit may be the best; however, it is basically a simple icon theme engine that boinks systemui if forcibly removed...not a chance in hell that will stay on my phone.

So questions I still have:

1. I'll post in the 3minit thread if needed...can anyone direct me to a manual uninstall for 3minit battery (like replace systemui with a clean version from B03, for example)j? I don't need a patch if someone can just get me pointed in the right direction.

2. Is there any way to disable Home Wake without it being done at the ROM build level (would prefer to avoid Xposed, but will try it if that is the only option)?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
no i didnt read it that way at all, i do this for the members and for my own enjoyment without you Devs would have no place, so dont worry .

unfortunaetly i think the systemui from b03 would likely fail since it is a different base. but now that Unity rom is out i have time to work on a return to stock for you, ill try to have it posted tommorow sometime.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] p950q:

Hey, I have an s5 active on stock rom, rooted, and i need to change the seminar kernel to passive instead of enforcing, but my stock rom won't switch to permissive... I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it works? I'm using the app seeing kernel changer, also tried the setting in Wanam to no avail...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
I don't believe we can do that with a locked bootloader. I'm not sure man
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
sorry not possible with a locked bootloader there is no way to effect changes at kernel level

Is this work on the 870F international version ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SabreRider:
Hi there - I have an G870W Active (Telus Canada). I would like to try your ROM but I am unsure that it would work for me. This is the only thread I've found so far for the S5 Active so any help/links would be appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
I would think this would work as long as you have root. Because the way they have updated to oc1 one bootloader . If you dont have a stock kernal image it may present a problem though. If you have safestrap installed it may work ok as long as it is still 4.4 or 4.2 software. If you have no idea what im talking about you better not try. Just saying.

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------

I haven't found a stock kernel image and I have 5.0 software. I am trying to get all these together so I can try a different ROM. Mainly to get rid of the bloatware. I used to have a Samsung SIII that I had rooted and an HTC before that, so I have a little experience loading custom ROMs but not much. Once I root this phone is there anyway to get back to stock? I am still on warranty so I might just have to wait, so I'm checking out my options.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
There is a app to remove bloatware without root. And if your on 5.0 already im not sure you will be able to root unless you have just upgraded to that from here.

Backing up sm-g870a rom

Hello, I've been reading on here for yrs just never had a reason to post. I also can't figure out where to start a new thread. So here's my question.

I have a Galaxy S5 Active AT&T, kit kat 4.4.4, rooted. Can give the build number as well if you need it.

I'm trying to do a ROM backup. I have tried CWM Backup Manager, Rom Manager, TWRP Manager and Online Nandrion. All of these will not work for various reasons.

My question is what is the best method or app to use or can it even be done? If one of the listed apps I've tried should have worked I'll drill down future to figure out why it didn't. With so many options and apps I've already spent a few days trying.

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sultanmurad:

i usually include the root zip to flash immediately after the rom as ive noticed this happens sometimes on my rom as well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Allright, I'll look into it, it's always a crap shoot when you dev blind for a device :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
It's all good. Rom is running great. Any one having trouble after installation should do the setup then reboot to recovery, do advanced wipe of cache and dalvik cache then reboot android will optimize apps and everything should be good. I did have to re-root and install my pro version of super user(just kept giving me the loading circle) but all is running great. Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Custom :eek: jk. Awesome rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Iv'e seen that afew times on different roms for S5 seems to randomly popup and then go away
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Yea I'm not having any issues. So nice to see all that bloat gone and it runs smooth. Also installed wanam framework and wanam exposed without issue. Also the Active button still works for anyone interested.

UPDATE:installed wanam framework and wanam exposed app from the market and have not encountered any problems. Hats of to you sir for this blind build.

On a side note this is the first time I've used wanam and I must say it beats the hell out of prying open and editing all those files to get the look you want(uot is in the past then I guess). So all in all even though our bootloader is locked up tighter than fort knox (freaking knox) I am really enjoying this phone now that we have a smoother running rom without all the bloatware. Also again Xposed is the shizzznit lol :cool:

:beer:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
I have to say this ROM is running flawless on the Active. Great battery life, fast, stable. Its my daily driver.

anyone notice improved battery life with this ROM?

I can't figure out how the Galaxy S5 (stock on verizon) gets 5+hours screen on time usage with 1-2 days run time. and I'm lucky to get 3 hours screen on time in a 12 hour period with my Galaxy S5 active..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] slimc84:
I average 4hrs and 38mins of screen time and 27 hours per charge cycle. Signal quality and open apps will have a huge factor in battery life. Also, disable your wifi when it's not in use and uncheck always allow scanning in wifi settings > advanced
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] shortbushemi:
My thing is my battery life reports come from people who run bone stock and never turn WiFi off. And run the same programs I do as well.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Yea I agree we may have a locked bootloader but this rom alleviates a lot of my aggravation cause I can customize my phone more so know then when I first got. Here's to hoping we can get bootloader unlocked. :beer:
