Time to end all this childish bs and bring the thread back on track...enough is enough
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TheDriller:
For sure brother. [emoji106]
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Stryke_the_Orc:
Thread cleaned.

As I'm sure you've all seen, Beans has stopped supporting development for this, and other, ROMs. Shot answer for updates, not likely from him. I see Goldie has said he may bring something over and there are others willing to continue the development. Asking for eta's is not acceptable, never has been and never will be.

No more childish crap or this thread will go the way of the development, non-existant.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ludeawakening:
EXACTLY!!! I bite my tongue a lot after reading some comments. Some of them get way off subject, like kernels (which won't work on this phone anyway until the bootloader is unlocked) and things that don't even pertain to phones at all. If you're working on stuff like that cool, but there are forums and threads for that. This thread is about this phone and this ROM, and that's all that should be talked about here. I completely agree about asking for ETA's. It should never be asked. An update will be released when it's released. There have been Devs completely stop supporting ROM's and devices because they get so sick of being asked when stuff will be released, and I don't blame them. I know I'm still game to help anywhere I can, and if the go ahead is given for someone to take over or join in with any remaining Devs to continue support for this ROM, I've got no problem trying to do it. Can't we all just get along? :)

Why is there a delay when using lmt pie? When I press home on pie it takes longer to get there than if I were press the home button. It's only like that on this Rom.

Pretty sure that's just settings > backup and reset, backup my data and automatic restore. Might just need to uncheck backup my data, until you've removed everything you want gone.

I stop reading the forums for 2 weeks and come back to check for v3 and i find Beans gone, a bunch of posts deleted, and no idea what happened or why. I've been through 2 or 3 different threads looking for an answer to bean's ( I don't want to get into the reasons here as to why I'm doing it, but I can assume that most of you probably already know..)

If someone would be so kind as to PM me what the hell happened I'd appreciate it. Please do NOT post in this thread about it, we don't need more flame wars.

Aside from that....... whats everyone moving too?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] gsxcorey:
Agreed... What is everyone moving to? Also with a dev edition I can run any unified development Rom correct?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Icculus760:
I had to upgrade to the latest baseband for non-ROM related reasons and installed BoxxiRoms 2.0.2. It's fast, smooth, definitely stable and, well, suffice it to say that the OP is right - the battery life is unbelievable. Just my $0.02

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] kemerystudios:
Can't wait for it bro. I think that questions that are 1. Stupid 2. Don't relate to the rom. And 3. Ask for things that can't happen yet are all irrelevant. All I want is this ROM to survive. Its a great day ROM, and whenever however development continues, I'll surely be here to support test, and report. And if beans ever returns (unlikely) I will gladly welcome him with both arms wide open. Have a great day! And let's keep questions in the Q&A that don't relate to issues in the ROM. Keep the questions/comments relevant.

Happy Modding :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ludeawakening:
The only thing I kind of disagree with would be "Stupid" questions. Some may seem stupid to many of us, but a lot of people just have no clue what's going on when it comes to custom ROM's, recoveries, and other similar things. If a question seems out of place, we can just refer the one who posted it to the Q&A thread for this ROM here -> http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/help/qa-alliancerom-build-2-romcontrol-t2907930 I do know exactly what you meant by the stupid part though.

As for this ROM, it would be a shame to let it completely die. It would be a very good ROM for people that are just getting into the modding aspect of their phones. It's actually the best stock based custom ROM I've ever seen for any device, and I've flashed hundreds of ROM's on various devices. And when I say "best" that includes: customization options, being very stable, and even awesome battery life. On top of that, if you add a different launcher to it, then it becomes even better. You actually don't even need Xposed on it. I don't have a single module installed and I can still change pretty much any aspect of the phone. I have a Nexus 6 on the way, but I like this ROM and phone so much, I'll continue to use it just to play around with.

I'm going to send a couple of PM's and make sure it's okay to try and keep this going. I wouldn't change a single thing, because it isn't my ROM, and there isn't anything I would change anyway. I can very easily continue support for it though, and help people work through issues they might have. :)

Gmail doesn't sync across devices

I've noticed that, since I've been using this ROM, my Gmail no longer syncs across my devices. It seems that, when I read and/or delete an email on my cellphone then look at gmail on my laptop, the emails show as unread much less deleted. This was not the case before I was running this ROM. Before, after reading and/or deleting an email on my cellphone, they would show as read and/or deleted on my laptop.

Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? Is there a setting in the ROM that I've missed?

Thank you.

By the way, I'm not really worried about support continuing for the ROM since it has so few flaws, most of which probably go unnoticed. And, I think updates would be for things that I don't know that I want and/or need anyway until i have them except for not being able to run NI2 (but if the bootloader was unlocked it would be a moot point anyway right?). In the words of Donald Rumsfield, that would be an unknown unknown.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] void4ever:
No rom setting to my knowledge, I've been running this Rom for months without issue. Go into settings > accounts > Google > and check to make sure everything is turned on to sync or at the very least gmail.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] porterx:
I guess my problem could be my laptop because all Gmail syncs are checked on my cell phone. I'm not at my laptop now. I'll post back after I check it.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Goldie:
OK. ...so this is to be a port from sprint or tmob because having recently done 2 releases on those devices I don't have time to start again from scratch. Someone however tells me that you guys will want NI2 base. So.....do I stop now? Before all the complaints start? Or do I continue with the port?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
I personally would be ok with the port but unfortunately you're going to have complaints from some overly entitled people who can't accept what works because it's not the latest base..even though there's not many meaningful changes. Do what you want brother.

No service help!!!

Woke up today and everything was fine and dandy, powered my phone on and off and all of a sudden... my phone doesn't work. No 4g service barely any 3g service in an area i normally have pristine signal ( 25 mbps + download speed), googled it.. i'd had the vzwavsservice has stopped error.. hundreds of times.. always ignored it. Well today.. that didn't workout so i disbaled it like it says to, and my google+ and... still nothing i'm sitting with 1x signal and can't barely send/recieve texts or anything. HELP!!!:confused:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] porterx:
That happened to me a while back. I had to reinstall the rom from a 2 day old backup. I backed up my texts with SMSBackupAndRestore, restored the system backup, then restored the texts. Took about 30 minutes. Easy Peasy.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] brando5055:
I actually use SMSbackup on a daily basis ( have for YEARS and they've made it so much simpler to workout, it's perfect really) but it just so happens that it wasn't the rom (YAY ALLIANCE) it was actually an issue with the towers around here. four hours after it started.. the signal went from 2 bars of 1x service to 5 bars of 4g. i think they were upgrading the towers and ****ed something up. much appreciated for the response though!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ludeawakening:
It will be completely your call on continuing the ROM you're working on for this phone. You know there will always be unsatisfied people, but there will be the ones that are truly grateful. If the young Padawans could finally see that there is no real benefit of NI2, and not just want it because it's more up to date, then development would carry on a lot better for this device.

I'm working on something for the Note 3 900T right now (which I probably can't pull off Lol) but whatever your decision might be on this, I'll continue to hang around here and the Q&A thread for this ROM and help where I can. I've already stated that I'll continue to use Alliance on my S5. :)

Now I just need someone who is good at the "Old School" type of developing (not the Kitchen) who can help me get all of the S Pen functions coded into a pure AOSP build for a Note 3. Hint hint... Lol jk
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
Did it on S5 4 days ago. Remote my laptop anywhere. Shouldn't take much for me to build for Note. Problem is most people should not have exploits available to them. Got everything from here and built.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ludeawakening:
Okay... I'm so confused again where you've quoted me. You're saying you've compiled an AOSP build for the Galaxy S5 that has the S Pen functions working? You would have needed a version of TouchWiz from a Note's firmware to start with, just to figure out the S Pen's coding that needs to be added to AOSP. *scratching head* Those functions are not in any Samsung build or any version of TW for a Galaxy S5. It's versions of TW with very different StringFunctions to make it work on the different Note models.

I would like to see this build if that's what you're saying you've accomplished. And I can get whatever phone needed to flash it on.

I'll leave the Remote laptop thing out of it. I don't know where you were going with that. Haha

Just PM me with stuff about the Note. I don't want to clutter this thread up with things not concerning Alliance. :)

Hello. I have been using this rom for a while now, and I really like it. One thing I found out was when trying to work with my Pioneer app radio 3, I need to change the SElinux mode to Permissive. I downloaded the app from the app store to do this, but when I go to settings, and about this phone, it says under SE for android status, Enforcing. So it doesn't change. Can anyone enlighten me on how to change this with this rom?

Thanks.

I don't believe SELinux can be set to permissive on this model or the AT&T variant, probably due to locked bootloader.

Amazon App Store downloads failed...Solved

I obviously don't follow directions because I didn't know what the ROM Customizer is so I installed from recovery. it won't activate. Oh, well. Restored my backup.

Edit: OK. I'm here to grovel because of what I did in the first part of this post. After restoring two different backups that I have, I can't get anything from the Amazon App Store to install. I've cleared cache/data. I've uninstalled/reinstalled it. I've uninstalled working apps that I got from Amazon App Store and they won't reinstall either.

Will someone please help me out here.

Oh, by the way, the ROM Customizer was already on my phone but when I run it, if force closes.

Thank you.

Edit: No replies so another plea. Should I reinstall the rom or should I go back to stock first?

Edit, Edit: I dirty installed AllianceROM and reinstalled my apps and now the Amazon App Store is installing apps again and no longer showing all downloads as failed.

I have been running your Rom for so long now, I can't even remember. It has been at least 3-4 Months I think.

I must say that this has to be the most reliable, smooth Rom I have used as a D.D. I accidentally factory reset just the other day but otherwise, never had to do more than wipe my cache from time to time. Thank you for your continued efforts and support.

Hopefully when source gets dropped for L, if it doesn't contradict anything, you'll be able to build a fantastic Update. However, I prefer the stability of the current build to "UPDATES".

Hi all and thanks for doing this! I just had a question as I'm kind of a newb to all this… in the instructions on how to install states:

Step 4-

boot into download mode and flash the NE9 Firmware only Tar Via ODIN Here

1. Being on Verizon i think my firmware is NCG so is flashing NE9 ok??

2. Also, any flashing i've done before always is done from Safestrap menu. Is Odin used here because we don't have an unlocked boot loader??

Again I'm new to flashing custom ROMs so just curious.

Thanks all!!!

Where'd my battery percentage go.

When I first installed this rom, the battery strength showed as just a percentage. No percentage encapsulated by a circle or a battery icon, just the percentage. I went in and changed the battery in Custom Settings to see what they looked like and now I can't get the battery percentage only back on the status bar at the top. Any ideas where that's at?

Thank you.

Edit: Solved. Select hide on Battery Select page then move Battery Text Size slider to show battery percentage.

First of all you said you" think" you're on ncg. Go in phone settings >about phone and look at your Android version and baseband and you'll know for sure. If you're on anything but NE9 you'll have to install the NE9 firmware only tar in odin. Just follow the instructions in the op for installation and yes the firmware has to be installed with odin.
