Phone Crashing

Samsung SM-G900V NE9

At least once a day but usually several times a day my phone will not wake up when pressing the power button or home key. It freezes and the only way to get the phone back on is to hold down the power button and volume down button to reset phone or remove/replace the battery. Can anyone help?

I have the same problem. Recommend you flash stock rom. And monitor it.

Got redirected here.

Finally flashed this after being on an outdated ROM that never got attention.

Noticed couple things, first phone seems to get rather warm while using it (never did before)

Second got the below picture on one page, not sure what that means.

Anyone know which setting changes the color for text message content (not the sender, the part of the message itself you are able to read) on the dropdown panel? Its all gray and very hard to read although everything I can find is set to black or white... I can't for the life of me figure out what setting this is but I'd love to be able to read text messages without opening them from my dropdown menu. Any help would be appreciated. Using Textra and Nova Launcher with Color Splash theme in Alliance if that matters any.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludeawakening:
Did you flash it to the Stock slot or did you create a slot to flash it? That sounds kind of like the reboot issue when flashing to created slots. I would recommend that you backup the stock ROM and then flash Alliance to the Stock slot if you didn't. However, if you did install Alliance on Stock already, I would say just re-flash it. You could've had a bad flash the first go around.

Keep me updated with the issues and I'll help you get them straightened out.

Keyboard on Alliance ROM

Looks like I am a little late to the party since all of the devs have left the project. I just installed today and so far I am really digging the rom. However, I can't seem to get google keyboard to work for. I read through the thread and there wasn't really anything solid about getting an alternate keyboard to work from samsung's. Any thoughts or suggestions?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludeawakening:
The Google keyboard is active by default. It's called Google Voice Typing. You can turn it off in the "Language and input" settings and go to the stock Samsung keyboard. Is that what you're talking about?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusTachio:
I was trying to run Google keyboard and every time I tried to apply it, the check would disappear. After you mentioned the Google voice, i went back and looked at that. After I told it I want German and English it let me choose Google keyboard. So victory there.

Care for another issue? I can't get the activation email from the carrier I am using here in Germany. I'm using the same process I have for the past three setups do I know it works. Side note: I tried a different way last night and that sent me an SMS so maybe I'm doing something else wrong here.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusTachio:
Instead of trying to do the setup online, I went to the backup, copied the settings and manually inserted them in Alliance. Problem solved.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludeawakening:
I'm glad you got the keyboard working. Many people just do not know exactly what to look for, which is completely understandable since it doesn't actually say "Google Keyboard" anywhere in the settings. I had an issue like this myself on a device a while back when I was learning all of this stuff. I can't recall exactly what it was, but I couldn't find something that was right in front of my face, just because of the way it was worded. Haha

Awesome job! Most people would not have thought to do that on their own. I was going to ask if you had backed up a ROM that everything worked on, and suggest you use the settings from it. Just always remember, a backup isn't just good for restoring a complete ROM, you can sometimes use them to pull settings from when you're having issues. But you figured that out. ;)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusTachio:
ludeawakening: The keyboard bit did trip me up, I didn't expect the voice dialer to help me at all. As far as the other stuff goes, sometimes I just need to talk things through and hope for an ah-ha moment.

Thanks for your help, it is greatly appreciated!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludeawakening:
No problem at all.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RusTachio:
New issues!

1.) The entire reason I use Google keyboard is because it switches between English and German very easily and has been fairly reliable. The problem is, even though I have German enabled, the change will not stick. It keeps switching back to English.

2.) Under the Google Settings > Search&Now tab, nothing shows up. It's as if the text color is the same as the background color, but this isn't a problem through out the rest of the app.

This has probably been asked already but here goes.

if im running an NI2 rom can i just flash the NE9 firmware and run this rom with no problem?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ludeawakening:
I'm not too sure about this but I will look into it for you.

It will not matter that you're running an NI2 ROM right now. If you flash Alliance and the NE9 firmware, then you'll be good to go. Nothing on your phone will be NI2 anymore. :)

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3ntalPurg3:
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".

Thank you all DEVS and contributors for this wonderful work. :thumbup: :cheers:

Help! Missing Themes!

I installed the alliance rom build 2 on my verizon gs5 sm-g900v and i flashed the md5 afterwards and everything was successful and i am on the ne9 firmware. I chose my theme and used it for a while, it got a little old and i wanted to change it to a new one. I opened up the Alliance manager app and selected choose theme(status bar), but their is nothing there. I also went to theme manager in the home screen settings, when you tap and hold down on the home screen, and all i have there is the touchwiz theme and the xperia theme. Ive tried rebooting the phone but that didnt work, and the themes dont show up in my fiile browser either, i hope yall could get back to me as soon as you can. Thank you.

---------- Post added at 07:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

The way i got mine to work perfectly was to first to downgrade the firmware down to the ne9 firmware on 4.4.2. Then I rooted it, and then flashed the rom over the stock rom, which is said in the thread to be recommended and then flashed the md5. But to answer your questions. Yes their will be bugs if you dont flash the ne9 md5. I personally flashed the ne9 md5 using odin, but i dont know about using safestrap. I honestly dont know if the flash will affect the stock rom slot or not, you will have to find other people who have tried to figure that out. Well, i really hoped this helped. Good luck!

---------- Post added at 07:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 AM ----------

Easy, just go into settings, scroll down to custom settings, go to lockscreen mods, scroll down to general lock options, and tick the "wake with home key". Hope this helped

Flashing Verizon S5 to Work on T-Mobile Network

Flashing Verizon S5 to Work on T-Mobile Network

Hi everyone, I a bought a Verizon S5 - G900V (build number LRX21T.G900VVRU1BOC4) from Craigslist because I bricked my S4 trying to install Lollipop on it. The phone is great, but I have T-Mobile service and as a result I am getting crazy dropped calls and intermittent data coverage - to boot I have problems accessing my voicemail properly and most importantly I can't use the services that I've grown so accustomed to: Wifi-Calling and Hotspot.

Before I proceed to root this phone and flash another ROM - can someone tell me if its even possible to:

1. Flash custom ROM on a G900V?

2. Is there a ROM that will enable Wifi-Calling/Hotspot (if so which)?

3. Am I able to install the stock G900T ROM to access all of T-Mobile services?

4. What's the best thing to do?

Thank you,

Nick

Yep, I actually got it working myself (this is the only build of AllianceROM I've had success with, the other ones I've tried failed with the AROMA installer, something about it doesn't work well with safestrap). My phone was on stock Lollipop (OC4 firmware) so I used the method described here to get root and safestrap. Then simply flashed build 2 of AllianceROM, no issues at all.

NOTE: My situation may be unique (coming from stock, most of you probably aren't), but I did NOT need to flash the NE9 firmware (step 4 in OP). Doing so broke everything and I had to Odin back to stock to start at the beginning and re-root. It worked perfectly just flashing build 2 from safestrap.

Here is my instructions

Use odin and flash NI2_STOCK_KERNEL_FOR_SAFESTRAP.tar.md5 or any VZW KITKAT kernel. Then you can enter Safestrap. Once you flash file or whatever you need to do in safestrap remember to boot to download mode from safestrap and then use odin to flash VZW_BOA8_RETAIL_KERNEL_ONLY.tar.md5 (If Already On BOA8 Firmware) or the VZW_BOA8_RETAIL_FIRMWARE_ONLY.tar.md5(If on Firmware Earlier than BOA8). Then you will be good to go. This process must be done every time you need to use SafeStrap!

Like... which md5 do i use? w hat does it do? and anytime i boot to download mode from safestrap it just goes to a screen that says downloading.. let it sit and wait for like 30 minutres before i pulled my battery and restored my phone from the backup i did before i started all this. tried installing it by doing the following steps

1. Wipe everything except sd card

2. install rom
