runs fine with the instructions provided on my dev box at home, some apks don't de-odex tho and others even after may not work. im not suprised that secmyfiles wont work on 444 i wouldnt expect any 5.0 apk to work without first being ported.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] droid_funktionz:
Thank you. So i take it my ROM slot that I made is going to stay in tact during this process (dont need to back anything up)....and that I need to first go into safestrap and boot back to my stock slot?

Sorry for all the questions... this new ROM process is a little different to sink my teeth into coming from my S3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Yes everyrhing will stay in tact and yes boot back to stock slot first
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] droid_funktionz:
Thank you again (I will be clicking thanks when XDA gives me more thanks to give)...Last question I promise and this bad boy is smooth as butter for me!

I can't seem to get my voice text button to show up in my keyboard when messaging. Is there a trick to this? re-install google search? New keyboard?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
in your messaging app bring up the keyboard by starting a new or replying to a message, press and hold the button just to the left of the space bar, you will see the picture of the mic, press it and there you go now your voice typing
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] droid_funktionz:
Looks like the update to 2.1.2 fixed whatever issue I was having... There was some definite issue with the previous keyboard... I am very familiar with how to setup that feature...I even reflashed previously and it was still there. It was one of the strangest keyboard bugs I had ever seen...It was like when I would long press the button, it would then just pull up a magnified image of like a comma and a period, each of which took me to different keyboard typing options. Think it linked me to the drawing board thingy...

No biggie though, 2.1.2 is running beautifully for me and that bug is not present anymore... Loving this ROM by the way!!! Thank you for bringing some customizations to my S5! (and debloating it) :cyclops: I am now a happy droid-head!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] droid_funktionz:
Anybody by chance experiencing any battery drain after updating to 2.1.2? Mine seems to be a little wonky... Im trying to find the culprit in BB stats but nothing is jumping out at me :confused:

EDIT: Nevermind. Took someone's suggestion to flash to stock slot instead and it improved my battery life by about 10 times...Getting great battery life now!

All set...Great ROM! Now this is running like butter all across the board
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] taotao07:
hi there, does this ROM work on sm-870a (S5 active from ATT)? I apologize if this question is already answered somewhere in this thread (i did search it though).

Thanks in advance
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] berniesteven:
Did you even read the op? This rom is designed for the active.

SM-G870A Peace
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] taotao07:
I did, I wasn't sure if S5A actually stands for S5 Active - better ask than brick. Thank you for clarification.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] berniesteven:
Glad I could help. Hope I didn't come across too harshly.

SM-G870A Peace
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SveninFla:
Awesome Rom! Not missing my IPhone at all. Just got my S5A a few weeks ago. This has been easier to get a custom Rom compared to the HTCs I ran in the past.

Thanks again!

Where Is 2.1.2@?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
follow the instructions in post #3 to enable OTA then it will push to your device to install

or alternatively

it is in the downloads page of the thread
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
Just a few questions

Just a few quick questions please. I do try to do research first. i am on DK 4.0 now and want to check your rom out. DK was my first rom (G900A with NEW SS now) but i am learning alot. have had it for a few months. very nice. i am sure yours is great too.

i would like to try Slot 1 and i already created it. my question on that is, should i use the default size or does it need special sizes for System, Data and Cache? i only ask this because i noticed that the size of the DK partitions are smaller.

my question about the install is, since you also supply a zip file for 2.1.2, which is very nice of you, i would rather use that than OTA. so after i install 2.1.0 should i set it up to base (login to google and not much more) and then flash 2.1.2 (which i am assuming contains 2.1.1)?

is the post about battery drain in rom slots true? if so i can flash to stock if recommended, but i guess i can try slot 1 for play?

finally, it is very hard to find out the nitty-gritty info on some not so simple android OS questions (if you can point me to an excellent web source, that would be great). i just have one and i know this is a dumb question sorta. it is hard to find out what is in System and what is in Data. i have some ideas and researched some things about it, but never get all the answers. i know if i restore System and Data from BU, all is there including my apps and SMS, etc (i know this because i updated from ND3 to NG3 with the fine thread of [MENTION=4708661]muniz_ri[/MENTION]). i read that apps and sms and data are stored in Data. so here's the dumb question, i just cant restore DATA from my SS DK BU after i install Unity, can I? i am kinda assuming when you install apps, etc, it must do something in System, right? Of course i do know how to put everything back, but it would be so nice if restoring DATA was the only thing i had to do...LOL. Are you laughing? I had been in IT banking for over 25 years in many positions, but i was lazy and never got to learn much about Unix/Linux. i was into the mainframes and even though i was around the PC dept in the 80's, i stupidly ignored it. oh well, there is some of my background. sorry this became so long.

All you developers and themers out there are really great to do all this work for us out here. i do donate. we all should. even a small amount. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Slot 1 is fine (I am currently running DK 4.0 in slot 1) and have had no battery issues.

no need to modify the partition sizes defaults are fine

yes flash 2.1.0 reboot complete the initial configuration then reboot to SS and flash 2.1.2 (once you have 2.1.2 OTA will be enabled)

as far as what is where and what to backup and restore here is the short and sweet of it, Unity and DK are different bases so restoring the data partition would most likely cause so extreme issues. the rule of thumb is restoring data partitions between dis-similar builds is not recomended.

now for what is where:

the system partition contains OEM Apps, libs, modules and configuration settings. Apps are contained in two distinct locations

/system/app and system/priv-app

/system/app contains apps such as key portions of google, Samsung, and AT&T along with other core components such as the tethering provisioning apps.

/system/priv-app contains OEM apps corresponding components such as shealth, and other samsung apps, along with the SecSettings.apk and SystemUI.apk which are key to the operation of the ROM.

there is no real clear delineation between the two directories core components can be found in both although the priv-app folder generally contains far fewer apps.

As far as a website for research well, your already there XDA is probably the best centralized source for information and learning.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
THANK YOU SIR. you are one of the very few in XDA that has given me the exact answers i needed. and the only one willing to go into such technical detail, which i love. so after i read the last part about 5 times or so and research it, i might understand it all. It almost makes me want to download the Android SDK. i wonder if i could make any heads or tails out of it? so now i feel all warm and fuzzy and will proceed to install Unity in Slot 1 for now. Thanks again for your indulgence. i think i can smell a donation. Happy Holidays!!!!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] droid_funktionz:
You must of got lucky with using the ROM slot. My battery life was significantly worse using the ROM slot. I was using the same version of SS you suggested. Maybe the issue is ROM specific. I posted in the Q & A thread about the issue last week and somebody else seemed to have had run into the exact same issue at some point. They were the ones who suggested that I flash to stock instead otherwise I wouldn't even of thought of that.

I even tried to let the ROM settle for 3 days in ROM slot 1. I was getting a 7% drain per hour even after 3 days of settling and several charge cycles...when I switched back to stock slot I am barely draining 1% an hour now...My battery life is amazing now! I was close to 3 days on my first charge back on the stock slot with 4+ hours screen time....Loving this rom so far! Great work!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] osker83:
How can I enable the flashlight toggle?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mastamindz:
Yes I too would like to know! Unless it's not available in this ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
settings --> display scroll down to torchlight (this isnt the toggle in quicksettings) but allows the use of the volume up key to turn it on while the device is asleep
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mastamindz:
So there just isn't a toggle for torch?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
there is a mod out there for it (i think) i just never added it I'll look around for it and try to get it added to he 2.1.3 OTA that im working on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] zounduser:
Having no root on note 4 sucks. I'm considering switching back to S5 until root drops. If it even does. Thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] osker83:
That will be great.. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] greysonofusa:
I don't know about you guys but my phone super fast after flashing this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
Tried, but battery issues and a couple of minor ones

hi again. so i did work on this project alot and let me tell you what i have found. first as you instructed, i installed 2.1.0 and got it set up all the way and then i flashed 2.1.2 update and did this in rom-slot-1. i must first say that the default value of the DATA partition in SS is way too small so i had to start over when i ran out of room before i even installed most of my apps. no biggie. so i got it all set up and started to use it. it was much easier to restore my apps (using my backup pro) with data (was new backup from DK of course). so i do not have an Active, just a S5 with NG3 and new SS. the rom worked fine but it did drain the battery. so bad that even though i had it in Airplane mode, it went from 90 to under 50 when i was sleeping in about 6 hours. it was bad before i even went to bed. i will be providing screenshots and explaining them in a bit. so i decided to wipe again and NOT to apply 2.1.2. really same thing and now back on DK. i did not try it in stock slot. also for some strange reason, some of the WANAM settings were not working. not a great big deal except for the stupid ATT carrier id would not go away in the status bar EXCEPT sometimes it did if there were other notifications, but it always came back. very strange. all my Xposed modules worked fine.

so i do not understand at all about these bases that are used, its all 4.4.2, but i am sure they all do slightly different things. anyway the screenshots are as follows: 1 - about device, 2 - home page before going back to DK, 3 - battery screenshot, 4 - screenshot of SCREEN info. this to me seems to be the culprit. the funny thing is that i hardly use the phone except for light email and texting and i am always blacking out the screen when i am done before it times out. SS - 5 are the battery stats for that overnight in airplane mode of which at least 6 hours was on airplane mode. SS - 6 and 7 are DK screens for comparison.

also i noticed something odd. why does Unity take so much more for system memory than DK? SS - 8 is Unity and 9 is DK. its just something i noticed. or maybe it means nothing. i only observe things and dont make conclusions on things i know little about!

something is out of whack here it seems. FYI, all apps were the same on both roms. i did get rid of most of the google stuff and some other apps before testing. pretty much the same tasks running in both roms. just reporting what i know and see. let me know if you find anything or if you need anymore info. since this is only my 2nd rom i tried, i might try the VISIX to see what happens with that. thanks. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] javierascua:
Hi, when i active rom slot 1 and install any rom like pyranna, alliance, wanam, shoham my battery drain. Another thing what are you planning for the next update (2.1.3)?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
2.1.3 will have updated SU, hopefully private mode re-enabled and a few other things that i have quite got worked out yet.

*DELETE*
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
So, here is what is coming down the pipe for Unity V2.1.3 (OTA Updates)

this is a short list for now of the items that are completed for the update.

Unity V2.1.3 Changelog

Private mode enabled

Safestrap UI updated and themed

Safestrap backgrounds updated

RIL modules updated for better performance

SuperSU updated to 2.40

There is still no indications of Lollipop 5.0 for the AT&T S5 variants and there are still many issues with De-Odexing, de-compiling and modding 5.0 apks and frameworks as well as we are not sure when (or if) it is released for our devices if root will be available, and it is highly doubtful (even if we do get root) that we will have any access to safestrap or any other custom recovery. As sad as it is it is very likely looking like 4.4.2 will be the end of the line for custom ROMs on the AT&T variants.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] javierascua:
Hi, so this is the last update of your rom? Tell me that is not true
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
There me little updates here and there (and maybe if 4.4.4 is around) but until the ability to work with 5.0 there likely wont be anymore major updates.:crying::crying:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] javierascua:

Removal?

I was hoping to get a confirmation on my removal steps as a point of clarification. If I wanted to return to a stock factory fresh state do I... Odin the stock ROM available in another post? OR Do I remove SafeStrap first then ODIN? OR am I missing the boat entirely and there is a different process that I overlooked? Does Wanam Xposed play a part in the factors surrounding removal?

Thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
i would recomend a factory data reset in recovery first, then do the odin back to stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
No comment on the battery drain in slot 1 then? have not seen a reply. thanks. Happy Holidays!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] javierascua:
When do you upload the 2.1.3 update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
2.1.3 wont be ready until after the holidays, im still working on it, its less than 50% completed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
i have been running DK in slot 1 and have had no issues granted the battery life is somewhat less but there are so many variables involved in running anything in a rom slot that making comparisons is nearly impossible. i have currently switched back to Unity in order to work on the OTA 2.1.3 update so cant test at the moment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] glpenguin:
You take your time and have a wonderful Christmas. Thanks for all of your work. I can't get over how smooth and stable this ROM is.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
well i will be happy to try 2.1.3 in slot1 again whenever it is done. would i need to apply 2.1.2 first since currently my last testing was without it (and as i said, i did update to 2.1.2 for my first test)? thanks, reply whenever. thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] javierascua:
Ok, thxs for the feedback and merry christmas and exellent 2015 for you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] javierascua:
Hi, another doubt, the 2.1.3 update still with NJ1 formware
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
yes still NJ1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
well some minor backtracking I am unable to get private mode working via the mods that are posted so that will likely be left out of 2.1.3 for now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
looking forward to the release! Happy Holidays all!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
I hate to be a nay-sayer but really? as much as one would like to believe that this would ever make AT&T change their ways it isn't going to happen, 1 signature or 1000 won't effect AT&T in the least. AT&T devices have been on the lock down for as long as i can remember the difference is some Manufacturers offer bootloader unlock solutions for their phones. EVERY AT&T device bootloader is locked, whether or not you can unlock it is NOT UP TO AT&T it is the manufacturer that provides this capability (HTC for example, Google Nexus devices for another). For a difference to be made it would have to be at the MFG level not AT&T, you wan't to unlock your bootloader it's Samsung you need to talk to AT&T can't provide the tools to unlock the bootloader that is the responsibility of the MFG.

Now please, please, please no more off topic this is a development thread not a change.org thread so lets keep on track. if it concerns this roms features, faults or updates this is the place if it doesn't relate to this roms development then this isn't the place.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] scrawnyb:
volume buttons and vibrate to mute

Is there any way to re-gain the ability to cycle from "Vibrate" down to "Mute" using the volume keys using this ROM?

Or does anyone know where that setting/information is stored if one wants to patch it themselves?

I really want to be able to use my up/down volume buttons to go Mute <-> Vibrate <-> Lowest volume <-> ... <-> Max volume.

Also, I wish someone would come up with a good way to properly remap long-press Home to Recents, so I could remap the recents button to be a context menu like it was on the S3.

Editing the keymap, I was able to redo the remap of recents => context menu, but not the recents (since that involves some smali/baksmali editing).

Teaser 2.1.3

​

Added Safe Mode to EPM​
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] scrawnyb:
cstayton, as part of 2.1.3, can you see about including the option to go from vibrate to mute as it did in most Stock ROMs?

Also an option to swap buttons would be nice, but I understand thats a ton more work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rjyoung00:
Are there any dark or even black themes that will work with this rom?

ill check into this it will probably be a separate mod independent of the OTA

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
delay in OTA Update

I'm waiting for chainfire to finish the latest update to SU then i will be posting the OTA below is a list of what it contains

Changelog Unity V2.1.3

Updated Superuser

Added safemode reboot to EPM

Added flashlight toggle to quicksettings

a few DNS build.prop tweaks

SafeStrap themed (splash screen and TWRP UI)

OTA-Updater.apk updated

busybox updated to 1.23.0

Minor RIL tweaking to increase LTE stability

Opened up multiwindow to all app drawer apps

Added CPU Core monitoring in ongoing notifications

Removed CPU MHZ from expanded status bar

others i may have forgot

Unfortunately this does not include any volume button tweaks for /silent/mute nor hiding notification icons

both of which i believe can be handled thru xPosed modules.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Darinrayd@gmail.com:
Every time I press the voice call button the main caller ui pops up and it proceeds as to make the call then hangs up. I've even reinstalled the Rom. p.s. I love the Rom

I don't see the new update? Anytime soon it will be available? Also, I can't find the tweak to hide the silent, vibrant and download Booster icons when enabled.. If it's not so much to ask for, I would appreciate it so much.. Thank you.. Awesome ROM by the way. ☺
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
its not posted yet

i have searched for this mod or any similar however nothing comes up so it wont be included. and as a side note nothing about volume controls in this ROM is any different than any stock S5 rom (i just verified my wifes S5) is not rooted nor touched in any way and works identically to this one so not sure where your seeing the volume buttons controlling mute/silent.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] osker83:
Maybe I didn't explain myself right. Lol I meant when I have my phone on silent, the silent icon shows in the notification bar. Can you tweak it so it could be hidden when I have my phone on silent or vibration?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] berniesteven:
I think wanam module can do that for you.
