Very good job thank you for your time and effort
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] _alexndr:
As some Xposed users may be disappointed that I changed default root solution - I meant people who prefer SuperSU and for some reasons DO NOT WANT to install Magisk for systemless Xposed - I have decided to share systemless Xposed framework ZIP installer (which works with SuperSU only, known from DevBase v4.0) as separate file:

>> xposed-v87.0-sdk23-topjohnwu-supersu-only.zip <<

As long as you are using SuperSU as root solution (without Magisk!) and you will use my DevBase to update - there is no need to re-install this Xposed framework if a new DevBase will be released & installed :cool: that's why there is no reason to keep it as installation option anymore (this is one of main advantages of systemless mods/tweaks) :cool:

NOTE1: This is NOT my work but @topjohnwu's! I have added only a small, script based workaround to let it work without Magisk. My intention was to use it exlusively in combination with my DevBase, if you for some reason do not want to use Magisk.

NOTE2: You will not be able to update Xposed framework using the official @topjohnwu's Xposed framework ZIP installer until you install Magisk!

NOTE3: This release will stop working if you install Magisk (to avoid interference with official @topjohnwu's Xposed Framework)!

NOTE4:

You are NOT allowed to redistribute this Xposed framework ZIP installer!

Hi _alexndr,

thanks for your big effort again! One question: I am with devbase 4.0, supersu and magisk. I have some apps (like app2sd) that used systemless for some tasks (like foldermount). What happens if I install devbase 4.1 with same options? Would magisk and su imgs stay as they are, or will they deleted and recreated?

Besides, if I would like to move to magisk only, is there a way to port changes to su img to magisk img?

Thanks for your support!
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] _alexndr:
In your case - if you install DevBase v4.1 over v4.0 with both: "supersu" & "magisk" strings in ZIP filename - all your systemless mods should still work

Basically - all mods which depend on SuperSU should be present as sh scripts in /su/su.d. Some mods can be directly moved from su.d to post-fs-data.d, bot some other CAN'T - a good example is modded topjohnwu's systemless Xposed which I shared above - it has been unofficially modded (by me) and contains interference-protection code. It can't be directly moved from su.d to post-fs-data.d. You need to use official topjohnwu's Xposed framework in case you want to move to MagiskSU as root solution
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
After installing Xposed as module in Magisk Manager app, it works fine on v4.1.

Now I have to check what's up with this CTS profile for SafetyNet check.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
Hey guys,

at first I want to thank ALEXANDR for the great work. I'm using your ROM since 2015 now and I'm very happy with it.

I have a question and I'm pretty sure you guys hate these kinds of questions but I have no idea what to do instead of asking. I'm using a very old version of your rom (G900FXXU1BOJ1 and build number: ALEXANDR.G900FXXU1BOJ2). I think it’s about time to update my phone now. The problem is I don’t know how to do that.

I downloaded these things:

I already did a “wipe data/factory reset” I have root and KNOX 0x0. I don’t know how and in which direction I have to install ROM, Bootlader and modem now. When I did it back in 2015 there was a very good step by step manual in a german forum but it’s not there anymore. I searched in this thread for a long time but I didn’t find my answers. Maybe you guys can help me. Thank you very much for your time.

Best Regards

Fabian
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] HJarausch:
I don't know and I doubt it's possible to install this ROM with KNOX 0x0.

I have installed TWRP-3.1.0 which does trigger KNOX 0x1. (A phone or tablet without the possibility to make NANDROID backups isn't an option for me)

Then it was easy to just flash this ROM from within TWRP (recovery)

Then switch (from within TWRP) to download mode

Then invoke ODIN from your WINDOWS system on your PC or laptop, connect your phone to your PC via USB and flash

the bootloader and the modem (be sure to check the "update boot loader" option).

Attn: The first boot will take quite some time.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
Thank you very very much for your answer. Now I think I know what to do. In the past I think I used Flashfire and SuperSU, now there is this Magisk & MagiskSU solution. For what do I need these programs? If I install the ROM from within TWRP and after this i flash bootloader and modem with odin, for what do I need Magisk?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Hawaiihemd:
MagiskSU with MagiskManager is roughly an alternative to systemless SuperSU with SuperSU app. So MagiskSU can be used for rooting your device instead of SuperSU.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] _alexndr:
Unfortunately, as far as I know, SafetyNet will never pass with Xposed framework (at least in case of latest firmwares) - even if you enable Magisk Hide :(
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
No problem.

Xposed is more important to me than SafetyNet check.

Just wanted to play around a little bit with Magisk.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
Guys i have a problem. Today I flashed TWRP and after this I flashed the newest rom from within TWRP and after this i flahed BL and CP with Odin. But now I have the Samsung logo after reboot and I think i did a big mistake. I put the CP file in Odin in the AP slot. What can I do now?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
I would try to reflash the modem in CP section of Odin (EDIT: and to be safe the bootloader in AP section) and restart.

Maybe this is already enough to boot into system.

If not, you may have to either flash the (whole) ROM again in recovery, or at least the corresponding (stock) kernel in AP section of Odin.

Good luck !
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
Hey, thank you very much for you answer. I did this: Installing an old 4.4.2 original firmware with odin (had access to system again after this), root with towelroot, flashing TWRP, installing the latest rom within TWRP, factory reset, starting in download modus out of TWRP, flashing BL and CP with odin, turning of the device and removing the battery, starting in recovery, factory reset again and then reboot. Now I'm again at the Samsung logo, but this time I'm allready stucked at the first logo (Samsung Galaxy S5 powered by android)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] HJarausch:
Just a dumb question: for how long have you been waiting for the phone to come up.

Just after flashing it might take quite a long time (several minutes!) to boot.

So, try to wait for 15 minutes.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
I waited 35 minutes.

Did I miss a step or something? Please help me.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Hawaiihemd:
This sounds like a file-mismatch to me. Please tell us which files you flashed by exact filename (TWRP, rom, bl, cp).
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
Try to flash the ROM zip again in recovery. Then turn off the phone for some seconds. Then boot into download mode and flash the bootloader in BL and the modem in CP section of Odin - with disabled auto reboot option. Then turn off the phone again for some seconds. Then directly boot into system. (Not into recovery) This needs some time ... usually about 5 minutes depending on the number of apps you have installed.

That's how I did it.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
I did this now:

-Flashing “G900FXXU1BOJ2_DevBase_alexndr” again. It worked and I’m having root now

-Flashing “twrp-3.1.0-0-klte.img.tar” with Odin (AP)

-Flashing “G900FXXS1CQC2_DevBase_v4.1_supersu.zip” within TWRP

-changing into download mode

-Flashing “BL_G900FXXS1CQC2.tar.md5” (BL) and “CP_G900FXXU1CQB1.tar.md5” (CP) with Odin (auto-reboot is off)

-removing the battery for 10 seconds

-starting into recovery mode

-factory reset again and reboot

Now I’m stuck at the second SAMSUNG-Logo again. It’s flashing a little bit (like an animation) and blue LED is on. But I’m stuck at this logo.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
And neither TWRP recovery gave errors when flashing the ROM zip file nor Odin while flashing the bootloader?

Bootloop is usually caused by a mismatched bootloader / ROM combination.

That's why I think either the ROM or the bootloader flashing was not successful.

Can you try to flash just the bootloader in BL section of Odin again? No factory reset. No rebooting into recovery.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] hyp3:
I'm having an issue: i used previous version, 4.0. So i didn't update BL nor CP, which are the same as last version.

After copying the 4.1 archive on my sdcard (i tried on the phones memory), the installer says "starting installation..." then the phone shuts down, and i have to remove battery to be able to boat again. I checked the md5 which is correct.

The only difference is i used Philztouch recovery, which worked perfectly for previous versions.

Any Hints?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nemesis_FF:
No there are no errors, everything works fine. I will try your advice later.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] It_ler:
I did nearly the same, but I saved the ROM zip file on the internal sd card and used TWRP recovery for flashing it.

You may install TWRP recovery and flash the ROM again in this recovery version. Then you can report back if this makes any difference.

Good luck!

It deletes all the bloat that Samsung puts in their firmwares (Chat On, Flipboard)

It only deletes the stuff that is easily reinstalled if needed through PlayStore.

There is no way to root Lollipop BNL9 without tripping the knox warranty.

The only way is to use CF Auto Root, but the knox show you 0x1.

You must flash back the KK ...

I'm on BNL7 :) Too many releases in 3 weeks ;) I'm waiting new release next weeks :p

PS: This is a bug?

The Messages menu show me two options: Locked messages and Blocked messages... These must me the same, right? :)

Lollipop BNL9 show this ? :)

I'm flashing Alexander's roms since 4.4.2 rooted and until now everything was great, but with this latest (BLN9) I experience quite weird behaviour.

Every time I reboot I get a message that OS is being updated and applications are being opened. I repeated flashing three times with no change. Anyone experiencing this as well?

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] _alexndr:
I have no idea, nobody else reported such issue

It is quite normal if you ticked "Modified Message app" during install

I don't know WHY it is happening, looks like it always occur if Message app is deodexed (even if it is completely unmodified!)

I think it is not a BIG problem to see this message at boot if we know WHAT is the cause. As you can see - modified Message app works as it should :)

Hi'

Installed ANK7 on my SM-G900F. Everything works like a charm : flash by Mobile Odin Pro with Knox 0x0, no wipe ( just have to reinstall XPosed framework ).

BTW...Open a french on the ROM HERE

Edit : not seen in features... Bootanimation in /system/media are supported plz ? Thx :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] alvin551:
Nope locked messages means that you can 'lock' a message so you can't accidently delete it.

Blocked messages I haven't used but I presume you block certain numbers/messages from that sender?

[MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION]

First of all, thank you for the wonderful work you have done so far. It seems like you spent a lot of time getting this together and that must be credited.

I have a Canadian SM-G900W8 (Knox 0x0), I have been trying to read on the subject for the last two days and so far have been unsucessful in answering the following questions:

1- Will flashing my bootloader and modem with the ones from post #3 Trigger Knox 0x1 and possibly break my G900W8 (Or LTE bands)?

2- Can I flash your ROM on my phone wihout the Bootloader and radio? Or could I flash only the Bootloader and not trigger Knox 0x1?

So many questions, but those are the ones that seemed the most important to ask :)

Thanks!

Hi again.

So i installed twrp 3.1 (i also tried an older version too, 2.8.X, can't remember): i start the installation, the process stops, the phones shuts down and i have to remove the battery to be able to reboot. :(

Just to confirme, the firmware and BL didn't change from 4.0 version right?

EDIT: i checked the rom md5 , BL too.

Apparently the phone reboot, when trying to install, when it says "checking csc configuration"

Hello again...

just some update: i still fail to install 4.1 version. It stops at "checking current csc" then phone reboots.

I used latest TWRP

I reinstalled BL and CP just in case.

I checked the file md5 (tried both on SD card and phone memory)

Just incase: where do i check the version on the rom installed ? i use Phone info app and checked preferences, and i'm not sure of the version of the rom installed?

And btw if i check the option "check md5 of the file" when installing in twrp, the verification fails (even tho when i check MD5 externally it is correct)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] the_pinkfloyd:
If it can help you, just tried tonight, and successful :

- verify all md5

- copy Devbase 4.1 on my SD card with options.prop

- reboot in twrp 3.2

- flash Devbase 4.1 ( no wipe or other option )

- reboot in download mode

- odin 3.12.3 - BL and CPfile, without touch any option EXCEPT auto reboot

- after flashing success, shutdown, remove battery 10 second and restart

- be patient for first reboot

Under android, i had uninstalled super su, updated magisk under android store, and installed xposed systemless 87.0

All work fine for now ( Safetynet is ko, but as many user, peharps an xposed module, don't know why)

Thanks for help mate, but i think i found the issue.

All md5 were Good, zip installed on sdcard.

The installation failed when reading "checking current csc".

I then tried to use a otptions.prop file where i replaced

CSC=KCSC

by

CSC=XEF (which is my current CSC)

Then the installation went fine, phone didn't reboot and manage to complete the installation !

Not sure if it's a "bug" related to this specific CSC, but the KCSC option used to work fine with previous versions.

Hope this can help some people. :)

Btw i have 2 questions:

i get an error in magisk manager:

"Safetynet fail: CTS profile error"

What does that mean?

And another question, how do i "use" magisk ? I mean for me, it provides root to certain applications, right?

I know it was popular to be able to use Pokemon Go on rooted devices; i then tested pokemon Go but it fails to load.

Is it safe to unroot phone using superSU unroot option? will i still have magisk operational?

If anyone can enlighten me ? ;p

Now I'm a little twisted, because changelist is lower than CQC2 :(

I might try to release this version but since I do not have such device I can't test such scenario (in general - there is a considerable probability of issues while "updating" ROM by an other, with lower changelist)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] humercab:
So the problem will be if I have This latest ROM and try to update to CQC2? Or vice versa? I'm just starting to install this ROM from scratch so I can try if you want...
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
Latest BTU was CQC1 and had same changelist as CQD1.

CQC2 was from other countries (mainly not European) and had a higher changelist...

We can only experiment. If you want I could try a beta test before sharing.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] alexbelgium:
There is something strange : since Oct-16, all BTU ROM show a changelist of 9493471 on sammobile (CPJ6, CPK1, CPLV, CQAV, CQBW, CQC1, CQD1)... Does this ROM really never changes, or did they just got lazy and stopped updating the changelist...

I checked also for the Egypt and Saudi Arabia rom (CQC2) : the changelist number 10662519 is there since Feb-17 (CQB4 and CQC2)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
I'd suggest to move back to BTU rather than running after changelists, also because, it's a while that I find them quite meaningless. Currently for S5 we can only expect images with monthly patch level, no new feature and so on, so I see no reason to get the latest changelist/firmware named version at all costs.

I found very ridiculous claiming a new firmware (that at least has new patch levels) and keeping same changelist. At least it should increase by 1 referring to the new patch level!!!

The main question is - have you tried to

update my CQC2 DevBase by dirty flashing CQD1

and found no issues (especially FCs)? Such scenario is enough for me to evaluate potential issues related to releasing new CQD1 DevBase

To check it it even does not require that CSC need to be matched (not matched CSC never leads to critical problems like FCs or so... at most in PhoneINFO will be a mess in the CSC tab)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
Hi, I cannot simply flash CQD1 as my setup is not fully systemless, so I need to apply more customizations before reboot from recovery, as well as I'd like to avoid creating useless data from removed apps.
