is there any benefit (Other than VoLTE) by using the NI2 vs the NE9? (currently on OptimalRom, but interested in trying this one out... seems like you guys think very highly of this one)...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
I (personally) like optimal rom/ni2 performance and battery wise better, so I'm using it till build 3 comes out. I love this roms customization, so I'm excited for the next build whenever beans gets it out. I'm not rushed though I know it takes alot of work. I'm sure whenever he feels it's ready we will have it

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
I definitely don't want Google Play services disabled on my phone. I just want to disable wearable services "com.android.googele.gms.config.configfetchservice" and " com.google.android.gms/.auth.be.proximity.authorization.userpresence.User PresenceService.com" but don't know how to or if I am even able to disable just those specific services.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
You can use app ops to help. Some roms have the feature, otherwise you can use the Xposed module. under Google play services turn "keep awake" to off. Helps me, but I think those things you mentioned are still there.. A bit minimized tho.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm worried that other Google Play services might not work right then. I just want to get rid of the wearable stuff all together and nothing else, permanently. I don't use wearables and never will at any time in my life, unless they should become 100% cosmetically identical to regular watches.. I like my Bulova and my phone notifies me of things just fine... but of course Google can't just make this simple for the large majority of its users who don't own wearables... that would just make too much sense.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
Everything works fine for me, Google stuff wise.

Anyone else having issues with the Samsung calendar saying it is 1970 when adding events? Or google calendar not loading? They used to work fine on build 1
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] golfinglenn:
Upgrade or not???

Quick question for all the opinions I value on here.

I had an S4 but my daughter wanted that after she got tired of he Iphone breaking. So I gave her my S4 and moved back into my Note2, updated it to 4.4.2 and MJ9 with Alliance Rom. Love the rom but I am always curious about new stuff. I have some upgrades available so was thinking about the S5 and of course rooting and running Alliance.

Just curious if S5 is much faster or if there are other features that would make the switch from Note 2 worth it.

Thanks,

Glenn

This may have been asked before but ever since performing a factory data reset and flashing Alliance ROM....i cannot get my basic visual voicemail to work....

I have contacted Verizon and logged into My Verizon to confirm that the basic visual voicemail feature is selected on my account.... however every single time i open the Voicemail icon in the app drawer it prompts me with the screen you get when the phone first comes out of the box, it asks if you want to start the 30 day free trial of visual voicemail premium, or sign into your current visual voicemail account.... which I've done, but it just says my request can't be processed....

Anybody run into this problem?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
I'm excited that this little theory of mine wasn't immediately shot down like I thought it would be, simply because I've been using the desktop site a lot for the last few days because I'm testing XDA One app on my phone and some things are still not working, so in order to do certain things I've just been signing on here instead of booting Tapatalk back up, but I have not noticed this until today. As much as I've been on desktop the last few days I feel like I'd have noticed that already... :good::fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Metroba:
I noticed it said build 3 like a week or more ago. So it's likely a typo.

Got some new weirdness to report:

I like the Cog battery icon and at some point - I'm not entirely sure when - the Cog recharge icon has stopped working. Whenever I plug my phone in to charge, the battery icon completely disappears. When I unplug it, it reappears. If I set the charging icon to something else it behaves normally. I've tried deleting the Alliance folder and recreating it, but that didn't work.

Any ideas?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
Not new. Was reported immediately on build 2, *cog" and "hidden" got switched on this build somehow, will be fixed on build 3. A little bit of searching goes a long way on here.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Boarder277:
Does anybody have trouble with visual voicemail on this ROM?

all i get is the Verizon screen to subscribe to visual voicemail which doesn't work when i try....i called and had Verizon reprovision my voicemail but that didn't work
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TheAutonomousGeek:
Awesome, well that's an easy fix in the meantime. Just set my phone to "Hide" for the charging battery and confirmed that I now have the Cog charging icon.

Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Boarder277:
Just wondering if anyone can help me answer a question.

Before flashing the NE9 firmware through Odin and then flashing the Alliance ROM, I was running rooted NI2 and made a Nandroid backup in Safestrap while on NI2 stock rooted.

I then downgraded to NE9 with Odin and am currently running Alliance.

My question is, can i restore that Nandroid backup that i made when i was on stock rooted NI2, from my current NE9 alliance ROM?

I suppose my real question is, can you restore a nandroid backup that was made on a more recent firmware?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
No, you will need to flash the NI2 firmware to use the NI2 backup. NE9 and NI2 are not compatible, you will get many force closures.

Any 5x6 tw launcher mod compatible with alliance rom?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] zombieplanalpha:
Mods to TW could break other TW customizations but you should be able to flash the 4x5 launcher mod back if it does. Try it out and let us know
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] yu42hit:

Any idea when we'll see an NI2 release? I love Alliance on my Note 3 and now that my wife has the S5, I want to throw it on there, but don't want to lose the VoLTE
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Franzie3:
I'll post them in a few, im at work.

As for the clock i know you can hide it thorugh the settings but Nova launcher has a new root feature that allows the clock to be hidden on the home screen only. I loved the feature since i use a clock widget and just looking at 2 clocks made it redundant. I love that feature. Nova has proper root privlegdes and Super SU has it accepted. i tried the other options in nova but the clock always sticks.

Another thing, the brightness slider. I know there was an option to have it Staged +1 =2 -3 etc or just be a slider. Is that slider feature bye bye?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Goldie:
Ahhh for that you have to wait for Beans to include our glass and/or aosp themes. This is only first release though :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] kidruk:
Sounds good. My man I am more than content with what I have right about now lol. I have yet to even explore all the goodies in his ROM. I can wait for a theme lol!

We love you beans!

You may not take kindly to this but would you ever consider adding all your settings & managers & choosers into 1 unified location?

Like a straight up Alliance option in the settings menu for example..

All the manager & customizer apps kinda trip a person out ;)

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
My standard mobile hotspot works fine, but the built-in tether option on this rom has never worked for me, not on this or Build 1. My mobile hotspot from Verizon works perfectly on this rom, though.

I was using the built in one? What do you use? Any help as I need it here :(

---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------

Can you upload the apk or help me out?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
I use the "mobile hotspot" option as opposed to "wireless tether" and have no issues. Its the hotspot with a toggle, the tethering function of this ROM is what does not work for me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] gsxcorey:
I am sorry but you lost me? I use the toggle up at the quick settings in the drop down? I am not sure what you mean but if you can clarify it would help as I need this on vacation.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] wrongway213:
Yes, I use the toggle in the drop down menu. That is your "mobile hotspot". This rom also supports wireless tethering, but that does not work on my device. However, using the mobile hotspot toggle works. It seems pretty clear to me that you are unaware of the wireless tethering option in this rom, so I am going to assume you have been using the regular hotspot, which on my device works just fine.

Installing Build 2 from NI2?

Hey guys, looking to install this ROM but have moved on to the NI2 firmware... What are the correct steps to get this to run without any hiccups?

(Sorry if it's a remedial question... im used to my HTCs with unlocked bootloaders :) )

Anyway, I think the way to go about it would be:

1) Wipe the phone (my prefered method is 3x data reset, 3x advanced reset clearing everything, 3x cache wipe... i know it's excessive but whatever, 30 seconds to know everything is out is worth it to me)

2) Flash the ROM (I will be using STOCK slot on safestrap)

3) Odin the NE9 firmware onto the phone

4) clear davlik/cache

5) boot phone and cross fingers...

Let me know if this is correct... or if im missing something
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] eragon5779:
Odin NE9, Odin NCG kernel, use towelroot, Odin NE9 kernel, install safestrap, wipe and flash AllianceROM on stock slot.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] RBThompsonV:
Do I want to flash the full NE9?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] eragon5779:

weird APKs

hey guys, was about to go through and clear out a few of the apps on this rom and discovered a few that i have no clue as to what they are...

they all seem related but i cant find exactly where they are installed. Im looking at them through the ROM Customizer, Manage User Apps...

One is called iOS7 (vniOS7.apk)

landiao (vnBlueA.apk)

Manual (vnCasual.apk)

MIUI (vnMIUI.apk)

there are a few others... any clues what they are?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dclay89:
No, it says in the OP that the black glass theme is selectable on install. But I don't see it ever as an option. I believe the black glass theme changes the system settings and all that good stuff. But I may be wrong.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jagrave:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Goldie:
Why are you deleting the alliance folder? Once they are there they are there. The folder is created and themes are extracted on opening alliance manager
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jagrave:
Sounds like they are the custom themes you can install.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Goldie:
They are tw launcher themes
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] yu42hit:
Someone told me to do that then launch alliance Manger to restore them. They constantly get deleted for no reason and u have to constantly repeat that process

Even when i apply themes there are still some apps that have the blue in them, like dialer or settings. thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] RBThompsonV:
OK, so...maybe im retarded... but, you're saying to go into the ROM Control (AllianceROM Settings) (Same as going Settings>Custom Settings) and there is an option in there?

because for the life of me, i can not find it...I can make the stausbar ICONS fully transparent, but not the statusbar itself/background transparent..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Goldie:
Custom settings....colors....backgrounds (as it is a background!)....statusbar
