[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasy2c:
I had that issue when I ran an cm11 style rom one time, then the same rom worked fine another time I tried it. I've had roms that would flash and work fine not fully flash (is what I assume anyway) for some odd reason a separate time. Lot of weird issues like that where something works one time then the same exact thing behaves differently another time. Had that issue a lot with this phone and I have no idea why.

How did u end up getting it to flash, if you don't mind me asking be I couldn't figure it out for the life of me lol.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
Different cm12 (team ub unofficial builds) thread has builds with good posts on it. Uses old flash style instead of the package with Dat files. Seemed to work pretty well minus no service

If I have time I'll toy around with it in a few hours and report back. Think it's something to do with lib files possibly?

What date version/versions did u try?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
1/28 and 1/29 so far. same results. stock kernel i get no service/data.. ktoonsez i get data/no service.. but im not sure if kernel is relevant. tried 1/25 and 1/28 5.0 aosp. not sure what else to do.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasy2c:
Well I haven't down a lot of research yet, don't have time yet but have read cm12 has had some baseband issues would relate to this problem but It seemed as if the newer versions had that sorted out...the kernel part is odd though...I'm really unsure about that
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
Maybe, just don't understand why LTE and stuff works tho lol

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasy2c:
Only thing that I'm finding is cm12 is still unstable and also could be a baseband or modem issue. Seeing that the 1/15 cm12 version was most stable 1/18 and later have baseband issues

Another thing...can we use the klteusc versions or just kltevzw be there would b minor differences that would break a rom?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
usc doesnt have a build on teamUB. all of the builds on albinoman klte klteusc kltevzw had the same error upon flashing for me, unable to mount system.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasy2c:
There are no other versions of lollipop that run the old style installer like this ub rom? That's where I'm referring to the klteusc versions would give a few more options since there isn't anything hardly for Verizon branded roms. Ik what error your talking about because I too had the same issue I'm going with a baseband issue...does it show anything in the about phone or is it unknown..the weird thing is u can get lte...just Flippin odd
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
In about phone it pretty much showed everything except signal strength as 0, oddly enough. And as far as roms supporting cdma they're the only one I can find. Also for some reason it listed model number as SM-G900F

Sent from my Supercharged KT Powered S5 On OptimalROM
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasy2c:
They ported the rom I'd assume and didn't bother to change it...Goldie's alliance rom was like that also. Maybe they are missing some lib files..if the baseband shows up idk why it wont work. Seen something about toggling 3g on instead of lte helped someone. I'm not on the rom though so I can't play with it. Does lolipop allow apns to be restored through apn backup and restore proporly? I would assume so as you can get lte but idk I' m just throwing stuff out into left field at this point

I just flashed to latest cm11, could use a file explorer to view my sd card but couldn't find my pics thru the gallery, or ringtones thru settings and could only get 3g. gonna download and try that ub rom here in a while, no problems restoring back to kk thru twrp? Read some people were having issues going from cm12 back to cm11.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
Yeah apn backup and restore works, same install method as Kk. LTE works fine, no voice or sms. Maybe a lib but idk why Verizon TW and cm11 would work but not 12. I want to ask for help in the thread sometimes but I feel like nobody would help since it's not a "supported" variant technically

Idk i have the worst luck with any aosp styled rom....something always doesnt work which is a deal breaker where you have had better luck then i have which doesnt make sense really. But it really cant hurt to ask, whats thebworst that theyll say, ya know.

Goijng through the thread seems like it still has quite a few issues...Noticed a guy with a verizon dev ed. is having similar issues to you evilryry

I agree, lolipop sounds very buggy from what im seeing not worth it really imo but still curious how it runs so far myself. Im trying to find a cm11 rom that likes my phone, xtremolite has been my rom lately but i want to get away from touchwiz for awhile just no luck with aosp roms :/

Cm11 didnt want to mount/find the ringrones and pictures from my sd card. Was accessable through es file explorer but nothing else

I also when trying to make calls get a mobile network not availiable message. get lte that works...I don't understand how you had everything working.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
May have been a fluke, but were you working with stock kernel or ktoonsez. Also was older builds from like October and November too

Sent from my Supercharged KT Powered S5 On OptimalROM
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fantasy2c:
Used both, had signal, 2 bars but didnt get service if that makes sense. Had this same issue way back when when ive tried them. Ultimately it seems quite similar to your issues on lolipop, is it not? Stock kernel i could send and recieve texts but when i flashed it again after trying liquid smooth, which wouldnt boot past the b. Animation i might add, but flashed ktoonsez kernel to try cm11 again nothing worked. Idk guess we r stuck with touchwiz unless we build our own rom from cm source which i can not accomplish personally..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilryry:
I had one working a while back pretty much perfect.. Lol. It was old ktoonsez kernel and an old cm build. Not sure if things have changed, but it does seem we're ultimately screwed for the moment unless you want to try like a mid November build of KT and cm11

I downloaded the 5.0 stock rom for VZW, took out the firmware and edited the updater script accordingly, plus kt 5.0 and supersu. Doesn't boot. Looks like we will need a update ourselves to run TW lollipop. Just wanted to confirm, I'm good on OptimalROM for now. I'll just have to watch sammobile or restore stock backup every once in a while to check.

IMPORTANT. I had the ability to call out send and receive texts and LTE but could not send MMS and also could not receive calls on cm 11 so explain that...cm is rather frustrating so back to tw. I think the only way any cm ROM will work 100% is if we build it from source for our individual carrier n my computer is not powerful enough to do so BC its a cheap pos lol

Its a pain until u get it down and then its actually incredibly simple, i do believe from what a guy told me way back when I had a different phone. the computer does most of the work, the first time is just the worst because u have to set everything up, I thought about posting in the cm12 tread but figured since I can't get cm12 to flash it wouldn't get me anywhere.

I seen ur post on the UB ROM thread from a couple days ago and figured I might as well try as well because who knows what helps us on one thread might help on for the other ROM. I'm reading up about doing a port or making cm for us but my computer can not run Ubuntu virtually without falling on its face lmao and that's what the guides I see are for.

instead of deleting the first part of the updater script I changed it to kltelra...it flashes, first and foremost the klte version was a bust, started getting google play fc and was inoporable once those started so I moved on to sprint which is about done loading now....wait lte out of the box, unlike the klte version no fcing. as soon as I call myself the call ends, 0s talk time...had signal bars but as soon as I texted myself I lost them and now have no signal and did not recieve the message to myself. About phone status says I'm registered on the verizon wireless network yet have no signal now...going to switch to the vzw version momentarilly bc sprint version is a bust too. Love the look of this tho, damn sexy lol

Thank you so much for the information. If this helps any, let me explain some progress I Have made with Bluegrass Variant.

- Inserted T-Mobile US SIM. Under network settings, I Was only able to selected CDMA/LTE, no GSM Options.

-Rooted with TR, AT&T Safestrap. Backed up stock bluegrass rom, wiped and flashed a VZW ROM. GSM option was now available, but when I selected it, it would not "stick". It would simply reset back to a CDMA option even after selecting global. FYI I was getting prompted to switch to global mode, and I was getting the VZW message for unauthorized SIM.

-I Was able to manually select T-Mobile from Network Operators, no Calls/SMS was working

-Tried various Service Mode apps, was able to enter service mode and attempted to force GSM only settings. I was able to get full 4G LTE Data with my T-Mobile SIM card, I COULD NOT USE CALL/SMS!

I will now attempted TWRP and flash a GSM based ROM - I will try an AOSP based rom first.
