[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
:confused: I at first "assumed" S Reminder was a Samsung app. I don't have it installed so I checked the Bloat Package (not listed), the Galaxy store, (couldn't find it). Did a google search for "S Reminder" and no hits. Soooo..... have you cleared caches in recovery? Uninstalled and reinstalled this app? Lastly, (cop out) freeze it and use Inbox's reminder feature?

i have 4.4. 2 .. the md5 checksum on the download section on the moar post will not let me click it to download. I download torrent file and mirror file both do the same. lets me install but when i boot up it just blink ANDROID OVER AND OVER and not load up.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
You don't need to download the md5 checksum, but you (I'm assuming Windows) need to download MD5 Checksum and install it on PC. Then just copy the checksum from the mirror site (AndroidFileHost) and when you open the checksum program, it should have the checksum there. Then just browse to the download on your PC and select it.

Are you doing a clean install? Also, in the installer, because you're having problems, try just installing the "default" selections. After a successful boot, you can always go back and "Choose Add-ons only" to customize.

Edit: Also, which recovery (and version) are you using? There's links to both Philz and TWRP in the OP. Make sure you're on the latest version.

We're going to try this again. [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] has been working on streamlining the process as well.

(k). Q: Where can I find other modems for the Sprint Galaxy S5?

NOTE: Knowledge of installing using Odin is required.

NOTE: Thank you to [MENTION=5177113]andee39[/MENTION], [MENTION=3635668]banccalif[/MENTION], [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION], and [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] for the files and the feedback.

NOTE: This is not to upgrade your phone to Android 4.4.4, this is only so you can install the latest modems.

NOTE: If you use fingerprint security, the NKD (Lollipop) modem breaks it.

Files needed (download to PC:

Odin (Has been tested on all versions, but best results with Odin 3.10.0)

NK4 Firmware. Only needs to be odin'd once. You can then odin any modem to use.

Modems. They are listed oldest to newest.

Instructions:

1. Power down phone. Do not use a menu to go into Download Mode.

2. Go into Download Mode (Volume Down, Home and Power Button), then Volume UP to continue.

3. Plug phone into computer via USB.

4. Start Odin. (Ensure you have a blue ID:COM light in Odin.

5. If firmware file needs to be installed, place it in the AP/PDA (older version) slot. This is a one time only step.

6. Place modem file in CP slot. (If you are upgrading the firmware, step 5 & 6 can be combined.

7. Press Start. Phone will reboot when finished.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
I started getting all kinds of errors because I deleted the fingerprints with the intention of redoing them. Luckily, odin'ing back to NE5 firmware fixed it. I'm going to odin back to the NK4 firmware with the NK4 modem to see if I can narrow it down.

Edit: NK4 firmware with NK4 modem and fingerprint scanner works good. Must be something about the NKD modem itself. I'll add a note to the FAQ for those that use fingerprint security.

I'm sure this is a noob question, but I can't seem to find the 'smart alert' button anywhere on MOAR 2.2 My phone vibrates when I pick it up and (through reading posts on other boards) it seems this is the culprit...except the menu option isn't where it should be on MOAR's ROM.

My phone is just like this and I cant get the smart remote to work and the camera does some wierd stuff and is very slow. I tried a old kernel but im guessing that since its nk4 its not going to work cause it just froze up. So how can I get the smart remote to work?

I havent done this stuff since my s3 so its been awhile.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Welcome to the forums. :)

Take a look at post #1 (FAQ), Smart Remote was debloated, but you can get it back. See section 1. (d).

As for the camera, is the "weird stuff" mean blotches in pictures? There's been a few people report that and it seems to be fixed by switching kernels. Try Ktoonsez kernel (link in post #6). You have a few other options like downgrading the firmware to NE5, but hold off on that to see if KT Kernel fixes it for you.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlboroa:
sorry i forgot to mention that i did put the smart remote back with the debloat package and its not working. The camera has blotches in the picture until you take one picture with the camera. after you take a picture it will work fine until its closed. then you have to do it again. The camera and smart remote do this with both kernels that come with this. I have tried a older version of KT but the phone refuses to start. maybe im not installing it right. It comes with a boot.iso file. Ive been putting it on the phone and flashing in recovery. is there another way?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andee39:
Are you taking that file out of the kernel zip and flashing? You should be flashing the entire kernel zip file.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Your screenshot earlier shows you're on the NK4 bootloader, so you need to use either KT Kernel dated 10.20.2014 or the NK4 kernel. You have two different ways to install it depending on what you downloaded. This .zip file must be copied to your phone's SD card and flashed from recovery. Don't unzip it or anything. If you want to use Odin, then you can place this file on your PC and connect your phone via USB. The first method is easier. If you're still having problems, consider installing the NE5 modem which will install the NE5 firmware, then you can use earlier kernels. I've read that problems with the camera (don't know about smart remote, but it could be related to the NK4 firmware too) were solved with KT Kernel 09.21.2014. If want to try that, instructions and links are in the OP.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marlboroa:
I reflashed the kernel that ramer posted and its still a no go. I guess I need to make it all ne5 later. Do I just need a stock modem and stock firmware?

Andee I have been leaving everything in the zip file.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
This sort of thing has been happening more lately. Has your phone already been updated to Android 4.4.4? MOAR is based on 4.4.2. You may need to downgrade the firmware to NE5. Install using Odin. Make sure you shut your phone off completely before going into download mode. (Volume Down, Home and Power). After installing that, reboot into recovery and flash MOAR.

Please let us know if this works because more and more people have been posting about this.

Hope this helps.

When I was stuck in the Bootloop, I flashed the stock ne5, rooted with TowelRoot, Installed SU and BusyBox. Flashed MOAR and stuck with NE5, no reason to worry about the version with Lollipop (5.0) so close to release. Use the stock Kernel via Aroma Install if you use Smart Remote.

Good Luck!

Im still on 4.4.2 and currently using RDDT v1.1. So what happened was I flashed the MOAR rom and it did the bootloop (coming from stock rom) I tried again and again, still bootloop. I did something in philz recovery and it made it thru the bootloop, I made a nandroid back up and was happy. I then tried to flash the "MOAR missing link" it froze in the install and I aborted and tried my nandroid back up and none would work. Its bc durring the install it updated my philz recovery I think, so I flashed a rom I knew worked made a back up, and im trying to get back to MOAR. Any suggestions?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
It probably doesn't matter, but I'm a little more OCD with my nandroid. I always reboot then go back into Recovery and restore (peace of mind). Make sure your recovery is the latest. With Missing Link, make sure you're just using the section I outline in the OP.

Edit: I assume you're doing a clean install. Don't flash Missing Link at the same time as MOAR. Did you check the MD5 on the MOAR download?

As a last resort, backup anything on internal SD you need to keep and wipe internal storage as well. You may have left over files that are causing problems.

I have a question, I updated the firmware and I installed a newer modem (not the lollipop one) and for some reason when I do a nandroid backup I can immediately go to restore and the backup is there.

I am not sure if this just started happening after I updated or before. I didn't notice it. Also to add I went to a 64 gig SD card from a 32 gig.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Did you ever check the MD5 checksum on MOAR 2.2? Try downloading it again and check the MD5 checksum. If that checks out, while it's not recommended (I did it without any problems) once you know you have a good copy of 2.2, try dirty flashing on top of 2.1. As far as [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION]'s New Stuff mods, for 2.2, there's only one. Don't worry about Missing Link until after you have a working 2.2 rom and have made a nanoid.

Updating MOAR

I have been using MOAR for some time now. It is my first rom & only rom. But I'm lost on how I can keep updating it. Do I need to keep downloading the new rom everything it updates
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Welcome to the forum :)

You didn't say which version of MOAR you're currently on. Upgrading is really a decision that only you can make. If you want all the latest features, then yes, update. It's really pretty easy if you have a plan in place. I'll give you my way of how I would normally update MOAR. Links to any download I mention are all in the OP (post #1), which you read, right?

1) Make sure you have the latest custom recovery installed. Older versions have had some issues.

2) Make a nanoid. If something goes wrong, you can restore it and be back in business in minutes.

3) Create an update.zip of all your apps that YOU installed, using Titanium Backup. I did a screencast (also in OP) of what you should backup and how. If you ONLY backup apps/data that you installed and not any system apps, it will work. Make sure you know where it's saved on phone (internal or external SD)

4) Download MOAR 2.2 to PC, use a program to check the MD5 checksum.

5) Copy MOAR to phone SD.

6) Flash MOAR (clean install) first, don't reboot and flash update.zip.

7) Reboot. If you're stuck on the Samsung screen for more than a minute, then something went wrong. Try re-flashing MOAR only as a dirty flash. (I've never had this problem, but some have lately).

8. Lastly, download the New Stuff v1.0 mod and flash that.

Again, this is just my way of upgrading, I'm sure some members do it differently. :cool:
