phone freezes and whatsapp crashes

got a new phone from sprint and installed this ROM from scratch with stock kernel

noticed the phone freezes up sometime and I have to take out the battery to restart it.

tried the ketson kernel, did not help

the freeze usually happends after an app install or update

furthermore my whatsapp keeps crashing and I have to uninstall and install it, usually it crashes after a reboot

I have cleaned the dalvik+ cache did not help

considering I started from zero I can not think of what went wrong

If anyone has any idea or similar issue please let me know;
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Hmgrepper:
What was build, etc, prior to install?

When you installed, what configuration did you select (stock kernel, launcher, etc)?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doctorman:
I am sure I followed the instruction in the first post

The build was OG1

used the stock kernel in the install

dont remember what launcher options were there I think it is the 5x4 one, nothing crazy

Hi everyone,

I read that the ROM Firmware Required is OA6 or newer. But I'm not sure if what I have is older or newer:

Version G900PVU3BOG1

Android 5.0

I am rooted and I have twrp-2.7.0.0. Do I meet the requirements for this ROM or do I need to take other measures first?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] autotech40:
Og1 is newer than oa6..i like to get what i need from the phone backedup then factory reset and clear.cach.then make shure you select oa6 kernel when flashing the rom in the aroma menu

all of a sudden I keep getting google play services has stopped working. Any workaround?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] j.denny1987:
I randomly get a similar message from Google play services. I point a finger to the Facebook app updating.

I have to mention that around that same moment, Android Wear disconnects and then reconnects. I get a notification in the pull down that Android Wear is connected.

I mention the notification just because I don't get that notification when I "manually" connect my watch with Android Wear. ?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] j.denny1987:
I just noticed that the Smart Scroll toggle is present in the drop down. Is it there for a particular reason? If this feature is integrated into the ROM, I cannot find it. Can someone set me straight?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] willowmaker420:
Long press on the toggle and it will bring you to the settings for smart scroll, on any of the qs toggles if you long press them will bring to each ones settings as an f.y.i.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] j.denny1987:
I appreciate it! Thanks for the info.

Edit: Would you mind trying smart scroll, if you haven't already? It isn't working for me. I've tried it out in most of the typical apps.

Just to say, multi window is not enabled.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] netengineer:
I'm on OG1 and rooted. I can not get MORA to flash. Take that back, it flashes but when I boot and update my apps in the play store all they say is 'downloading'.

I have tried everything... Clear cache, data, factory reset. I have also went into applications and cleared everything for framework, play store, and services.

Any ideas?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Newbie_from_NJ:
Thank you for those details. I wouldn't have known what to chose at that stage. I will be sure to wipe everything including /data, system and internal SD.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] cavediver:
You need to flash the OA6 kernel.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
Need help, tried to flash moar 7.0 did a clean flash n 2 downloaded twice and still get system ui fc on first boot n don't let set up my phone. any idea why
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] andee39:
What kernel are you using?

---------- Post added at 06:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:27 PM ----------

You are going to have to provide more details. What were you on previously, did you really do a clean install (as per instructions), did you check md5, etc .....
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
I was on 6.2 moar OA6 and flashed carbon ROM to check it out but decided to come back to this, n I flashed 7.0 did a clean flash, wiped 3 times everything, format, n factory reset on ktsoonsez recovery, did a clean install from moar installer and flashed stock kerne. It flashes n boots normal, it takes like 10 mins maybe less for first boot but it get stuck on setup screen getting a System UI fc n I can't go any further.

Do I need to update modem or anything before flashing moar 7.0
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] willowmaker420:
You need to enable weather on lockscreen in settings>lockscreen, just keep working thru the fc you can get to the screen with the fc and enable this
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
I can't get thru at all it don't let me

I think Ima install the note 4 weather n then I'll change it after to s6, could that help
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
This is is what I get on boot
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] netengineer:
Thought I did that but must have not. It worked. Thanks for the help
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jhuff83:
Anyone ever find out what causes the screen to go dark only after a couple of seconds when receiving a call?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] andee39:
Did you check md5? Try redownloading the rom.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tdunham:
You have to wipe internal storage and if that doesn't work, you're going to need to follow the steps all the way through from Stage 1 including flashing back to true stock with odin.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
I re downloaded for the 3rd time n still get the same system ui fc, if I was already on 5.0 why would I need to Odin OA6 again?

???
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hackwoof:
To be honest when the internal sd gets to acting a little buggy like yours is it can be so many different things that it would be impossible to pin point. Therefore the best option would be to follow what [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] has recommended to remove whatever is causing the faults. Also [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] is imo one of the greatest developers on xda if he responds to help you please show him courtesy he definitely will not lead you wrong. I have had to do these same steps because of a GPS issue and it helped.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] andee39:
Unfortunately sometimes weird unexplainable issues happen. 25 people could follow the same instructions and 24 out of 25 have no problems at all and for one person, it just does not work. That is why starting over from stock is often the best way to go.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tdunham:
You went off the reservation with carbon rom. It may not be absolutely necessary but I'm just letting you know what to expect if it's still not working.

---------- Post added at 03:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 AM ----------

Did you format storage?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
I do apprentice the time everyone is taking to reply. Is not my first time flashing and switching from ROM to ROM and the steps to take when switching.

I did a full wipe, factory reset n format 3 times each or more and flashed it like 10 times with 3 different downloaded files n got the same result

Is just weird how is asking for a pattern to unlock n system fc on first boot ?. I didn't had a PC on hand but I will Odin and report back to you guys n see what happens
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] toker562:
i downloaded rom on pc, odin n its working great ?, thanks for all the help

I can't get my playstore to download new apps or update the current ones I have. And the MOAR mod controls sets hangs when trying to get root permissions. Are these issues known? And is there a fix?

I get this error as well; I use a Pebble Time Steel watch, and I do have Android Wear installed as well.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] gargleblarg:
Is your kernel og1, if so use oa6 provided at installation (this has been discussed already). For root access, try using the beta supersu, it's up to version 2.52 now.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tdunham:
Moar Control will hang for about 20 seconds only on the first start.

We got with the developer and there is a fix for that but it didn't make it into the current rom release.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] barberboy420:
My phones starting to become laggy. Takes few seconds to toggle btwn apps. My apps take forever to load. I use clean master, it notifies me regular to.clean this or wipe that but other than using clean master what else could I do?

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] JollyGrnReefer:
I am still running MOAR v5.0 NKD, is this worth upgrading to? I have the feeling it is about time.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Hmgrepper:
I would vote YES! The Mod Control alone was worth it for me.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
I haven't run a ROM that's been innocent of that on any of my phones. Reboot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and it usually clears right up. Oh, and I never use those cleaning apps. They've been favorites of some friends of mine, but I'm not convinced of their efficacy. Kinda like advanced task killer back in the day
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
my phone is doing app updates just about daily and it seems like every time it does, it changes the wallpaper to some stock image. It doesnt do it on the lockscreen tho. ROM issue maybe? Or more likely a launcher issue?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Ramer:
Regarding your app updates, see if the information posted here helps you.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
Word! Thanks man. This needing to keep changing my wallpaper everyday was getting kinda old.... kinda quick LoL
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] lilmikeyv:
The wallpaper changing is related to Facebook... Everytime it updates your wallpaper will go back to stock...don't believe it's rom related as have seen the problem in other rom threads
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] j.denny1987:
I went through that too. What I did was uninstall Facebook completely. Reinstalled it, l let it sync with my phone. From that point moving forward, I change my wallpaper from the Gallery app only. Instead of from the home screen.

I read that information online awhile back. It works for me. I don't know why, but it does the trick.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Robalboa:
Flash oa6 stock kernel it will fix it

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Fredrick2011:
I've been silently reading and I'm surprised at all these issues coming up personally I've only had the one problem with the camera server error crash but posted the working permanent fix for that and I haven't had a problem since I have a feeling that when the next new stuff mod is released its going to be huge
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
I think the weirdest issues that have been happening are the install issues. I've never encountered a ROM that was so picky about what else is on the storage medium. I just can't wrap my head around that part of it

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Fredrick2011:
I've noticed that most of the people coming over are from AOSP build roms which will cause conflicts because of the different build types my recommendation would be to backup any irreplaceable items like pictures video and music to a PC then apply the factory stock rom let it activate your services and settle in for about 2 minutes do not install any OTA updates from there shut down enter download mode and begin the re rooting process install the custom recovery my personal recommendation would be TWRP because I found that so it works best with MOAR from there install MOAR using the clean install option as well as the stock kernel option this will ensure that all the remnants from the AOSP builds are eliminated and everything should transition smoothly the steps I provided here have been summarized for the sake of length the full steps can be found on page 1 of the OP and I think its posts 1 through 4 if I'm not mistaken
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] lys3rgic:
Was just wondering, Is Software update (the apk that gives you a software update noticed) tied to the external SD card mounting/reading? I've had a few issues with my SD not readable after a boot(not sure if it's a mod control option either) but is still readable and writable in recovery. Just phone sits on Checking SD for errors. I was going to play around with it, but was wondering if disabling the Software Update could be the cause of the problem? I haven't disabled it this install and the SD card hasn't done it yet, but i have also haven't played around with mod control settings just yet either
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
Oh I know all that and I read it in the OP. But having had gone back and forth from aosp to tw Roms tons of times on many different galaxy phones and from aosp to sense several times on my htcs, a factory reset was all that was ever needed along with vipers megawipe. I understand that the op has the most effective method on how to get this ROM up and running, just seems like overkill for it to be necessary is all I'm saying

Hello,

Where can I find call forwarding in this rom? i could not be able to find it in "Call" options.

Thanks!!!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tdunham:
Call forwarding is not a rom feature, it is a feature provided by the carrier and usually has additional fees that get charged to the account when used. Google how to use call forwarding with Sprint if that is your provider.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bbpham:
Oh ok..thanks...i am using this phone with my ATT and I dont pay for call forwarding with our plan. Thanks again!

es file explorer?

Any ideas how to do this on es file explorer? I see the owner is set as system but nothing about sub-folders.. should I just bite the bullet and buy root explorer? really would love to have more space as I barely have any apps installed..
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tdunham:
oops

---------- Post added at 02:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 PM ----------

there is a way but I don't remember how to enable root with es or if it does permissions. You can install root explorer app from Moar addons though.

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

or use rom toolbox, it has an excellent root browser
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Ramer:
Turn on root access for ES File Explorer from the Tools menu, but ES File Explorer doesn't have the setting to check the sub-folder. Root Explorer is also free from the Playstore. Just download it and problem solved.

I've run a backup and wiped everything.... formatted (TWRP) all but the MSD card and the USB Drive... going to give a fresh install another try. I had done all this the first time but you never know what can happen installing from a zip...Thank you for the response. I'll update again after complete

UPDATE: reinstalled a new fresh copy of the MOAR on a clean wiped and formatted S5 with good results. WiFi now working and everything appears to be functioning as it should. Thanks for pointing out, what should have been obvious, that I needed to wipe and retry.

Solution: Using TWRP, use the wipe function, advanced, full wipe of everything except external Micro SD card. install the fresh zip, wipe Dalvik and other cache afterwards and save a backup immediately following the successful installation.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] El.Dante565:
I know what you mean bro, although was that before lollipop. I know I have did that too, although usually I didn't really go back to TW. Could it be Samsung's version of lollipop making it hard to flop between Aosp and TW?

Can someone help me with the kernel flashable that comes with this rom? Please :o
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] cavediver:
It's built into the aroma installer. You can flash it from there. Choose add-ons instead of rom. Otherwise, a search will turn up the flashable kernels.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Son Rise:
But im on a different rom. Just need the flashable zip. Is all
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] El.Dante565:
Well most would do some sort of search and would be able to find it easily. I am sure there is a thread somewhere dedicated for kernels and other items.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] InsanePostman:
First off I would like to say thanks for the ROM. It is running great. The only issue I am having is that my data icons are not animated. LTE and 3g will show correctly but they have no animations. Any insight on that?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] El.Dante565:
I believe that is just one of those things, a bug if you will, that this ROM has. As I would agree it would be nice if they were to animate, but what are going to do. I don't think they were animated on moar since the first lollipop build.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] InsanePostman:
Ahh I see. Well in that case is there anything I can flash to revert that specific item back to stock status? Or would that ruin the rom since it might be part of the built in theme? I don't have knowledge that technical on the matter
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Ramer:
Have you looked at the MOAT theme? It has plenty of animations.

Thermal setting?

Hi in the OA6 there was a way to alter the thermal settings, change your governor and make the phone look more cool or warm. is this not in the v7.0?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Swede2008:
I don't think it's specific to MOAR. If my memory serves me correctly, it has to do with it being deodexed. And I also agree, as stupid as it was, I liked the spinning spark lol
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
Not sure, but I don't think so as this isn't my first LP custom tw based ROM I've flashed on here. Matter of fact, I flashed this LP TW ROM after having been on a LP TW ROM. So, I got nothin lol
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] El.Dante565:
Well true it doesn't seem to be a problem going between custom TW to another TW based ROM. We're talking about going from AOSP based ROM aka Pure Android to a custom TW based ROM.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Youdoofus:
Unless we are talking about diffe4ent things, MOAR is a tw based ROM.

Battery not charging

Thank you for this great rom. The only downside I have so far is since I've flashed it, my phone will not charge. Stock firmware, red led stays on when the screen is off but will not increase in charge. The Charge icon on the task bar flips back and forth between the charging icon and the percentage (I assume it should stay on the charger icon). Any assistance is welcomed! I haven't messed with custom roms in quite some time, the process is a lot easier/streamlined than it was back in the HTC Hero days :) Again, thank you!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Randy3011:
May be.....

Sounds like the connector port is defective (possibly broken connection internally). May be a bad cable. Have you tried a different cable to charge phone? Have you tried a stock ROM to verify charging?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dj3stripes:
I had zero physical issues with the device before flashing. The battery charge level has never gone up, it's just slowly been draining since I flashed. Lock screen says charging, LED is red when screen is off. When the phone's powered off the battery icon reflects the same percentage as the OS does when it's booted. Should I flash a different kernel? I haven't tried any listed on the first page (not sure what the differences are between them, no descriptions). Have tried several chargers that we have in the office here so I can rule out faulty chargers. I can try a stock ROM if it comes down to it but it'd be a shame to give up on this one so quickly.

UPDATE:

It dipped bellow 40% and now it's charging up again. Do I need to wipe battery stats in recovery or something? I recall having to do that when flashing roms years ago
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hackwoof:
I would. Also when you run into difficulties like that it sounds like a 3rd party app interfering more than the rom itself. I would boot into safe mode and see how the phone responds. If it charges then you know for sure it is a 3rd party app. If it does not I would recommend a full clean install. Customer kernel can help but I don't feel it's a solution. Hope this helps.
