[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Thanks. I'm also trying to find the background color for the volume background.

I see a lot of .png files that I never see displayed in any menu or settings options. So I guess I'm gonna have to do a little trial and error. It's kinda hard to figure out which file I need to change as there are a lot in the framawork-res.apk.

If you happen to figure out where the 4G icons are please let me know. I'll keep looking to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
SystemUI.apk /res/drawable-xxhdpi for signal icons

the background for the controls should be a style /res/values/styles.xml
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Ok. Found em thanks to you, never would have looked their. Well as soon as I applied the new systemui.apk it crashed resulting in a battery pull. Upon reboot the changes did take effect though. I just think ninja morph needs updated for kit Kat but that's just my guess. Again thanks for the help. On to the volume menu back ground. :D:thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Slow going but here's the quick setting icons, just changed up the color. Any help with were to get some new icons would be appreciated.

[MENTION=3758230]cstayton[/MENTION]sorry to keep bugging but I'm trying to find the samsungkeyboard.apk and dialer.apk but I've only found incallui.apk and it only changes the dialer within the dialer.apk(not sure dialer.apk is the right name for the file I'm looking for, I want to edit the dialer pad). If you could once again point me in the right direction I would be very thankful.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Incallui.apk is the right one and the keyboard is /system/app/SamsungIME.apk, try /system/priv-app/SecContacts.apk for other dialer icons
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Thanks I found the samsungIME.apk. ill check for the rest of the icons for dialer later. Thanks for telling me where to find things:thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Can some please verify for me that access to SuperSU and Safestrap settings are available in the Settings menu? they should be right above the "About" section.

also please check for torchlight option in the display settings in the settings menu.

thanks a lot:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Your right. It' is missing, heh. just noticed lol. Still runs smooth. Here's a scene shot of settings.

Also yes torch light is there. But I notice that when when I lock the screen with a pin it only comes on once then I have to unlock the screen to get it to come on again. Works fine if you to use swipe screen lock, haven't tried pattern unlock.

Also I can't seem to find the alphabet for the keyboard nor the numbers for the keyboard. Maybe you know? Also can't find punctuation marks. See screen in next post.

Update: it won't let me take a screen shot while the keyboard is up. Hmm.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AnarchoXen:
I just flashed the update and I CAN see those settings.

Between Developer Options and About device.

Finger Scanner is in there too...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
fingerprint scanner should not be that is an S5 feature not S5 Active, im checking my downloads now to see if the correct file is linked
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
ok, just verified that the linked rom is the correct one however, discovered that the safestrap and supersu access thru systemsettings is missing ill make sure to add that back in the next release

sorry :(:(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AnarchoXen:
:good:

Download Booster supposed to be there? It is...

On each reboot I have to retype my wifi password...any idea why?

The ROM is excellent BTW, thanks for making it for us.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
lol, you have the S5 ROM not the S5 Active theres a difference Active is NE4 base S5 Standard is based off of G900F OEM that has download booster car mode blah blah blah itll work fine on your active but i think the extra buttons dont work and there is no fingerprint scanner
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Man I'm having so much fun themeing this rom. Thanks, I love this stuff. Here's my power menu. Been themeing with ninjamorph for two days. This app is off the hook crazy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Looks nice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Would it be possible to make the extra active button take screen shots and add circle battery in the next release?(if to much trouble don't bother I know your busy). I really dislike sliding the side of my hand across the screen. And as always thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rokonacdc:
I second this. Would love easy screen shot access.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Patch available

In this post Post #2 is a patch to fix the SecSettings.apk it now properly includes the options for SuperSU and Safestrap (look right above the about section of settings)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Downloading now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Flashed both patches without issue. Great work. Even snappier and WiFi seems to be responding quicker, don't no if it's the performance tweaks or just me but it seems better. Thanks.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::D:sly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fendergrab:
How so you add the Widgets to the lockacreen?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
On the lock screen Swyre left or right on the top third of the screen and you'll see a giant + click on it and add your widget
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rokonacdc:
Hello. I'm not sure if this has perhaps been answered in a different context, but will this allow TiBu to make backups onto my ExtSD or for that matter allow any app to have access to my ExtSD card? I hate that feature of 4.4.x.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
If you go to the play store...there's an app by jrummy called Sdcard fix. It worked for me and am able to read and write from the extsd with tibu...in fact any App has rw access now.

Not really answer your question but just throwing it out there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rokonacdc:
Yeah, sorry. I found a fix almost immediately after posting this. Same app you suggested. Lol. Thanks for the reply, though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] WizeGuyDezignz:
Get this app and it will allow you to do it. Works great for me.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jrummy.sdfix
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rokonacdc:
Again, thank you, but I got the app. Lol. Sorry for doing some poor research on it. Should've tried google, too, instead of just searching XDA.

I also found a way to do the fix on my own without an app. Really wish I had done it that way instead.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
Is this cstayton that did the Stardroid ROM back when I had my Inspire 4G?

I loved that ROM...will give it a go. Besides I gotta get my Init.d support back. I can't seem to get it working on my own.

I used universal Init.d app and it says it has Init.d support but no scripts are running.

Not sure why....that's why I leave it to the experts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Hahaa, wow I almost forgot about those days, yep that was my rom as well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
Does anyone know if there are any compatible themes with this ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fendergrab:
Does anybody know if there's a way to disable the home button wake? Like editing a file or something along those lines?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
Visix krome theme
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
Thanks. How about changing the desktop size to default?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Desktop is default, nothing changed from stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
did you ever get init.d working? i checked the universal init.d and it adds a line to the install-recovery2.sh that wont work, you have to call the init.d from the /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] argolfermd:
Has anyone been able to get Chromecast mirroring to work? I haven't ever had the option on my Active, but I see that standard S5 owners do. I have tried to fiddle with a couple things in the build.prop, but I haven't had any joy yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
I did get it working, thanks!

Niether Universal or Term-init seemed to work but...

I wasn't sure what more to do after exhausting google trying to find a fix and nothing i found fixed it..so i just started all over. I had to Odin back to stock, re-root and I used your KoolKit tool to enable init.d.

That looks like it did the trick.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Awesome good to hear
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
Of course I haven't heard or read that others are having similar issue or if it was just my device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] imwillzillla:
Correct it was me. Thanks for the awesome Rom..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
For those of you interested...if you install Trickster Mod from the Play Store, you have some ability to Control and change kernels settings and parameters.

It may be common knowledge but I just did it on a whim. Trickster mod will ask you to install Busybox on Rails. Don't do the recovery method...just have it install normally.

I've been able to change governors and i/o schedulers...though the list is limited.

If the settings won't stick after reboot...disable mdprecision.

It's not much but its some control of the kernel and I haven't seen much else said about it. I bought the paid version of trickster mod a couple years ago and it comes in handy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Nickovtyme:
I'm still not sure what the ranking means as I can't find an faq that tells what ranked 12w+ and lv1 means exactly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] berniesteven:
Running great on my less than a week old Active. Thanks op.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rubbamade:
any answer on the wifi password problem?? I like the ROM, but having to re-enter every wifi-password again after a reboot it a little annoying. Is there any fix for this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] fendergrab:
I have not had this problem at all. I did a full wipe before installing though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rubbamade:
Lol..who doesn't do a full wipe before install? Well. I wipe twice. ALWAYS. Haha

No really though. I'll try again..I didn't reboot before installing the patches. I loaded them all to flash in order.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kkrucek:
Has anyone else seen this I am on a stock NC5 I cannot seem to get into Factory Recovery mode ... Hold volume up + Home + Power ..... I see it say " Recovery Booting" in blue but the it just loads Samsung logo and phone boots....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
What else have you done to your phone? Have you rooted it and or attempted to install SafeStrap or anything?

FYI too... You only have to use Volume up+ Power.... No need for home key.

Once it vibrates are you letting go of the button combo? It you still can't seem to get into it I'd suggest just using Odin and the NC5 No Wipe so it loads your Recovery. IMG again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Elements95:
Hello, has anyone managed to get towelroot working on this phone (if you have, can you post the modstring? :P)?

If not, is there another method of rooting that can preserve my files and app data?

thanks!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PapaPrem:
I have been reading WiFi threads on here for hours but can't seem to find the right answer.

I have a WiFi network at home that I can connect to when enabling Wi-Fi through the Comm Manager. My Wizard is running Xelencin's T-Mobile USA 2.26 Custom ROM (Wizard/MDA).

The problem is, when I'm at home and fire up Pocket IE, the phone tries to connect using GPRS rather than my WiFi connection. What I want is for Pocket IE to use WiFi when I'm connected to WiFi, and GPRS at other times.

Many posts reference going to Start > Settings >Connections > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks, and changing the settings for "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet..." to either "My ISP" or "My Work Network".

I have 4 items listed in these drop-downs:

My ISP

T-Mobile Data

T-Mobile MMS

My Work Network

When I look at the settings for "My ISP" there is one connection defined called "T-Mobile WModem Link" that is set to use the modem "Cellular Line (GPRS) and access point name "wap.voicestream.com"

The settings for "My Work Network" don't show a connection listed at all. If I create a new one, my options for selecting a "modem" are:

Bluetooth

Cellular Line

Cellular Line (GPRS)

Generic IrDA

Hayes Compatible on COM1:

None of these seems to be right for a WiFi connection.

The settings for "T-Mobile Data" are the same as the settings for My ISP except the connection is called "T-Mobile Data"

The settings for "T-Mobile MMS" are also the same (GPRS and wap.voicestream.com).

It seems like T-Mobile is blocking me from using Wi-Fi as the default internet connection. I really like this ROM and would prefer not to change it. Can anyone help?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Tbaba:
with my Wizard as long as i'm connected to a wifi network (and i have an IP address and gateway from that network) it will browse with it... only when i'm not on any network connected to the internet (including via USB Active sync) does it connect using gprs. The "My ISP" conenction is configured for my GPRS Network.

Somehting i can suggest is that you open Network Adapters, select your WLAN Wireless Adapter and choose "this network card connect me to The Internet"

good luck!

PS make sure the wifi network your conecting has a shared internet connection... if its not shared your phone will use GPRS even if its connected.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PseudoReal:
where do you say that with "shared internet connection"
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PapaPrem:
I have no problem browsing with Wifi. My wireless connection isnt the issue. My problem is not being able to make Wi-Fi, my default internet connection.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] prestonmcafee:
I think this works

I think this is the thread that solved it for me:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=261438&highlight=internet+wifi+gprs

To be fair, I usually have to try a couple of settings to get it to work automatically, but eventually I do.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] PapaPrem:
No luck for me. I think I'm just going to have to learn how to cook a custom extended rom without the "T-Mobile_Network_Customizations.cab", and then hard reset. Is there a simple way to delete that cab file from the extended rom and also make that change to the "Config.txt" file (in the extended rom)? Anytime I try making changes to the extended rom via Total Commander, all the files in the extended rom end up looking garbled.

I am using Dirty Unicorn rom and had experience where I lose baseband version so I used SamsungTool apk to backup my EFS. DU rom was working fine till I jumped around to other roms and came back by restore and lost baseband again. I tried restoring using SamsungTool but it didn't work. Do anyone have experience using SamsungTool and know how to correctly backup EFS using that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Have you tried to go back to a TW backup. That can sometimes remind your device who it is...

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] vinmaster:
I actually had to restore back to my stock samsung rom to get my baseband back and when I tried to restore to the DU rom again, it is lost. I think it is a corrupted backup
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
Links and Instructions are now up. As promised, F2FS support is now possible for /data and /cache on Evita. For now there is no support for converting /system to F2FS as most have said it does not show significant gains because there is far less writing to /system partition. Also, as of now the only way to support converting /system would require specific ROMs built specifically for F2FS on system. As I have done it here we remain flexible to flash any regular nightly and still enjoy the gains of F2FS on /data and /cache. Follow instructions carefully and enjoy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pandasa123:
If we were building an AOSP ROM, how would we have F2FS already enabled? just wondering if there was a way to eliminate a few steps
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
I've been following some other devices trials and tribulations with f2fs. Most other places I'm seeing dev convert the partitions in the device trees fstab. This results in a fixed f2fs or fixed ext4 ROM. As a dev that means building 2 ROMs which is a time waster.

With these fstab scripts I modded from the grouper forums I was able to make basically any aosp ROM adaptable to f2fs or ext4 for data and cache. I have included this same script work and the needed f2fs tools into the torched installer as well as the f2fs conversion zips.

Pandasa123 I have posted all the source in the f2fs thread. You really only need the kernel commits and the f2fs capable recovery along with my scripts. You could also build a fixed f2fs ROM if you chose and I have commits on my github and on CM gerrit to use as examples for that as well. I have also pushed kernel commits to CM gerreit in hopes that intervigil will merge them to make this a lot simpler but I highly doubt that will happen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
[MENTION=5357811]pandasa123[/MENTION], little more info...

If you look through my fstab zip scripts you'll find that they check the partitions for filesystem type, unpack the boot.img and the edit the fstab accordingly for f2fs or ext4 with all the proper mount flags and then repack the boot.img.

This seemed to me to be an easy way for any user to get their feet wet on f2fs and it takes the extra work away from the devs having to cook duplicate roms. Flash any current ROM, then flash the conversion zip to get your fstab proper based on whatever partition format you are currently on.

There is also a movement on liquid smooth to incorporate this type of conversion script into the ROM zip but its still a huge wip.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Great work, what an awesome parting gift. I have to say again, you've been such a fantastic asset to the Evita forum, easily one of the most significant and high quality contributors we've had the privilege to have here. Really wish I could get my hands on a OnePlus One now!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
Did you try the f2fs yet? Curious for some feedback on how it feels to others. [MENTION=5188956]cannondaleV2000[/MENTION] was helping me test this for a week or so until he bricked his ville then other day(unrelated, switching hboots failed him).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
I haven't yet, I'm a stay at home dad to a seven week old little girl so I struggle to find the time to even flash a ROM recently. If I get some free time (that's a fairly big if) I'll definitely test it out. It's a real shame about his Ville, I think he got really unlucky and his PC thermalled and rebooted on him during the hboot change. Pretty sure he's getting it jtagged though.

I will test and report back with benchmarks shortly.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sephiroth2k:
EXT4 vs F2FS benchmarks

[IMG="Evita EXT4 vs F2FS"]http://i.imgur.com/a7gXkdY.png[/IMG]

These were done on the same ROM (PA 4.42 stock kernel, then PA 4.42 F2FS evita kernel), followed instructions exactly, rebooted and re-ran the benchmark several times with approximately the same results. Benchmarks were performed on the /data partition. Not sure why SQLite performance took such a hit...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
Generally similar to what numbers I had as well. Noticeable gains in both continuous and random write speeds.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] sephiroth2k:
Yeah definitely, just curious as to why SQLite was slower with faster random write benchmarks? Seems counter-intuitive; faster writes should mean faster database writes. Also, across multiple runs Browser and Camcorder opened more quickly with F2FS but Camera was slower. IANA filesystem developer however. Thanks for this awesome contribution to the evita scene.

Hey I googled a little and found this, suggested issue was "I suspect that you turned on CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES in your .config." # CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES is not set in ville_defconfig . Just throwing it out there
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jrior001:
Its off in Evita source as well. Appreciate the effort and I will look more at that commit as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] budroid:
I decided to give the F2FS a try and so I went with the latest CarbonKat and your Torched kernel. I haven't run any benchmarks and I'm still getting all my stuff put back on here but I must say that almost everything seems faster so far. Most noticeable differences so far for me are bootup time is significantly shorter and my phone didn't slow down much at all while installing my apps from the Play Store. Before the switch to F2FS, I had noticed that my phone would lag (sometimes badly) as I would go through the My Apps list in the Play Store and continue choosing apps to install while others were still downloading/installing. Also for me most apps seem to open a little faster than before and work more smoothly.

I do have a question for you about the TWRP backup/restore process with F2FS. Specifically, lets say I backup CarbonKat with the F2FS partitions and then install something else without F2FS (or restore another backup that is not F2FS). If I want to switch back, can I then just restore my TWRP backup of CarbonKat with F2FS? If not, can you recommend a process for that? I'm probably not going to switch from this setup for a while but its hard to tell.

Also, about using the kernel+fstab zip vs just the fstab zip...I used the fstab only zip after flashing your kernel (which already has F2FS support) and that worked out fine for me. But, could I just always use the kernel+fstab zip even if the kernel I flash already has F2FS support?

Hope these questions are ok and thank you for all that you've done for our devices. This F2FS change is one of the most noticeable performance increases I've seen on my Evita and it's been my daily driver since AT&T released it back in 2012. Are there any benchmarks that you'd like me to run or any questions I might be able to answer for you on my usage/experience? If so, I may have to ask for detailed instructions if there's something I haven't needed to do before with android (still learning).
