[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TechX1991:
Laptop charging, standard white USB that came with my phone from verizon, have never had this issue before. Battery is fine, it's actually only about a month old (i have multiples). Battery drain has been an issue with 5.0, draining as fast as 1 percent every 3-5 minutes from what I've read.

I did not modify the debloat script or even manually do any debloating. I had installed only the standard apps I need of WhatsApp, FB Messenger and Chrome Beta.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
i was implying its not the rom.. if you have drain that bad something else is going on. ive been on all the L roms and battery for me has been similar to kk
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
Working pretty good man. Question though, is it possible to map home button long press to recents on this? with the mods zip i see you can do left key menu (which is what i wanted) and for home key its only wake on home press. is it possible to have it do more in the future or am i missing something? thanks =)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
im on the moar rom and long press home brings up recents for me and recents button is my menu button
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] vacaloca:
Started using this a day ago. Lollipop seems snappier than KitKat, battery might be better also, but too short of a time to tell... have to get rid of unused things first. Debloat.zip/mods are great. So many stock apps are garbage. This ROM also has tethering working without a subscription, thanks for that.

Torchlight in settings also force closes for me in settings. Is this a stock option or was it added in?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
Anyone else getting cell standby as top/near top battery user? Is that normal? Never had it high on KK

ACC_WW_DAEMON.zip

These are the verizon stock ones. Remember to delete entire folder of old ones before coping these
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
no i screwed up! will you delete your post please
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
Done, sorry, wanted to make sure that was right/wrong, wasn't sure that's why I questioned it. Also are there any plans for long press menu for recents in custom settings that you get from the mods zip for this rom? Right now only can change recents key but then it takes away recents access via a hardware key.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
this rom uses scripts to change out the keylayout files to do it like the moar rom you have to edit framework jars. This is why I added the recents button on toggle bar
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mtown_cyclone:
Thanks! After deleting the old folders (they aren't there actually), I should just have to copy the apks to the /system/apps/ directory, right?

EDIT: Never mind. After copying them into /system/apps/ I had to modify the file permissions before they'd install on reboot. Thanks again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mtown_cyclone:
Okay, one more annoyance then I'll shut up:) Is there any way to disable the pop-up battery full notification? Not necessarily the one in the notification bar (although I wouldn't mind getting rid of that too) but the one that pops up.

TIA
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] scottguest11:
i installed this rom and havnt had any problems but the tethering i get the check for subscription mess

Debloat Apps

Works great! Seems to have solved my wifi connection issues.

Does the debloat script disable installation of the apps it removed? I'd like to be able to use Play Books, but can't install it. I've tried downloading through Play Store, but it FCs. I also tried to install the app from a mirror site. That also didn't work.

If this is the case, how can I get Play Books by? ck If not, does anyone know what the problem might be?

So am I reading right that there is more problem with 5.0 the 4.4. Should I just stay on 4.4 since I am have zero issues?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] fanto3k4:
I have had zero issues with this rom...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] prenedo:
L has been much better for me than KK. Better battery life and snappier. Just missing a few xposed mods that MOAR helps take care of. Results seem varied. Could be user error, or could just be the way people use there phones and the apps installed... But definitely worth backing up your current setup and checking out lollipop. This ROM is a perfect start.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] WhoNeedszzz:
I'm having a problem where if I set a notification tone that is on my sd card it will not use it, but instead the last notification tone that was used on the phone storage. The ringtone is from my sd card and does work. Any idea how to fix that?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrv331:
Move the sound file to the system/media/audio/notifications folder - set permissions and reboot and good to go.

Sorry if this has already been covered but is a anybody else have trouble with Ultra power saving mode? When I turn it on its says it's configuring but never actual enter u. power saving mode.

I just tried it for first time and it worked fine.

Off the wall question any one play CLASH OF CLANS? Xmods app is not working on 5.0, flash back to 4.4 and its fine. To add I confirmed root on 5.0.

it knows you are trying to cheat so Samsung doesnt like that...

or xmod just hasnt been updated to work on L lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tiger505:
Ouch, I'm having a slightly bricked phone at the moment...followed the instruction to install on OP and got to have the Rom installed. Went to install MOAR 6.3 and it did boot up and I loved the startup screen etc. However when I got to the Rom I got a system UI issue or something. I Odin to get to recovery and did a full factory reset and now I cannot get out of of startup Samsung Galaxy S5 (Custom) etc black and white screen. I've tried to Odin Stock kernel and retail firmware tars and nothing is working. Would anyone know how to get my phone back...I'm kinda desperate.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: FIXED Started at the beginning and installed 4.4.2 and rooted, safestrap et all and I was lucky I had a backup on Safestrap that I did today before trying Lollipop. I think I'll stay on 4.4.4 for now. Thanks

EDIT and UPDATE: So I went back to 4.4.2 and all was ok I thought but I lost data after a few hours. On tech with Verizon and they said "new SIM card, so went to Verizon today and put in a new sim and it worked for a while then no data. SOOO... I went back and read the install directions VERY slowly and what do you know I now have Lollipop. I then was afraid because it was working but I decided jump into ROM 6.5 from jrkruse and yep I think I have a fabulous phone again. I have fond memories of MOAR Rom's in the past, and as I always ask::: where is dang DONATE button???

If your already rooted with SafeStrap installed just do a full wipe and flash the rom then odin the 0A8 kernal and good to go. If your not rooted follow the instructions in the OP.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Eaglebiker:
I think this is the one

Ok, I'm really new to this. First new android device. I want to try your ROM, partially because it is lollypop, partly because I'm using my 900v on another carrier and the verizon apps are not needed and the setup wizard keeps failing.

I have a few questions so please bare with me. I really appreciate any help you can give. Again, I'm really new (Mr. Sanders is the only colonel I know).

First question: Am I right about the assumptions I made about installation below?

1. put rom on internal or external sd card ---No Problem

2. reboot to safetrap --No Problem

3. do full wipe/data/system/cache --No Problem

4. flash rom --I assume this will be where I press install in Safestrap and select the rom I saved on the SD card?

5. reboot to download mode from safestrap --No Problem assuming nothing changed since I did this in step 2.

6. flash VZW_BOA8_RETAIL_FIRMWARE_ONLY.tar.md5 Make sure it is the retail firmware and not just the kernel --I am guessing I download this file to my SD card and install it like I did in step 4.

7. Safestrap will no longer work unless you 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 or the VZW_BOA8_RETAIL_FIRMWARE_ONLY.tar.md5. Then you will be good to go. This process must be done every time you need to use SafeStrap! --I think this is essential knowledge I need if I want to remove this ROM, but not really part of the instalation.

Question two: This is my current setup below. Is there anything else I need to do before the above? If so, step by step is greatly appreciated :)

I am did full wipe / data / system / cache

"The application is not installed"

I will be installing the ROM to see if it works well or not.

I spent two days without moving anything with applications but they still there was details.

I think this it is wrong compiled ROM.

I think something happened to compile the Rom. :) :crying:

Comment that two days I was without work much the mobile.

Until a few hours I started to install my copies of the applications that had installed before and then I started to present details.

Fails to pass more days without installing anything if I do not make a video to show that I lie not.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
not saying u are a liar just saying i also use this rom as my rom base and have 0 issues u are having.. its not a compiling error with the rom but perhaps you got a bad dl or are doing something wrong?

i am just saying this rom was compiled just fine so to say its the rom is not correct.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] XdroidPerfect:
Okay :)

I followed all the steps that the public partner in the first post. :cowboy:

I was not wrong at all. :crying:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
Always make sure you are coming from a clean wipe and clean install of the ROM too. If you didn't, that always can play a role
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] BoscoCosta:
Actually step 6 and 7 you need to be using Odin not SS
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
step 6 id assume odin since thats the only way hed b able to flash a tar.

step 7 he clearly says ss wont work unless he odins the kernel
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] XdroidPerfect:
I did clean installation :(.

hmm do not know why they do not believe.

This week I'll upload the video following in the footsteps of fellow and you will see that has failed to install applications.

My first ROM installation is done. Thanks for the help. No issues to report.

I was surprised to see amazon and verizon apps still on the phone as I thought they were on the debloat list.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
did you use the debloat zip? lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Eaglebiker:
OK, I'm feeling foolish. I see the debloated zip. Is that a zip to replace the ROM? Or is there some other way off installing it?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
Nooo you still need the ROM, the debloat zip I believe you just flash in ss (flash old firmware to get to it) and just flash normally. Since I haven't done it, I would wait for more confirmation
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
You flash the debloat zip in recovery (safestrap) it just removes apps or I posted a list of apps that it removes, you can do it manually if you want
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
haha no worries.. you would flash the debloat zip after rom sometime in safestrap to remove the apps from that list.. if not you will have all the stock apps still with the rom.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Eaglebiker:
Soft Brick

I'm in a mess. I went to redo my installation to debloat it. I boot to ss and wipe clean the device. I then mistakenly rebooted. For some reason it doesn't go to safestrap anymore. It just hangs on the samsung galaxy s5 powered by android screen. Luckily, I can get into download mode and android recovery mode. But android recovery mode does not have a restore back up option. Any idea what I need to do to get safe strap or another rom on to the device? I used Odin to re-install the safestrap Kernel mentioned at the beginning of this thread, but no joy.

***Problem Solved****

I feel like a genius!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
glad you fixed it lol. if you can please post your fix in case others have same problem then maybe they wont ask and can read your resolution.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
Same thing happened to me and all I simply did was flash the stock ncg full tar in Odin (power phone off, then turn on holding power, home, and volume down to get to download mode). Then just reroot and flash what you want or restore a backup
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Linux215:
Hello, can anyone please tell me the name of the theme chooser used in this ROM and where to find more theme's? In the theme chooser menu it just has a button to click that brings you to the Samsung App Store to a page that says "No App's"

Yup, that is what I did. Though I did about 20 other things and it was 4am before I had it all sorted out.

I asked this in another area, but no response. Would anyone here know where I could get a setupwizard.apk for either 'Rogers' or an international device? And am I right in thinking that i could just install it with no issues after I delete the current verizon one?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
Here's an international lp one. https://www.dropbox.com/s/tt3e1xq9arbuhu6/SetupWizard.apk?dl=0 and no you can't just install it you will have to delete the old one and push to system/priv-app and set permissions.. or copy into the rom zip before you flash. Why u need it tho?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Eaglebiker:
I do not use verizon as my carrier. I read that it may not be safe to just delete setup wizard from the phone. Since last night I learned how to delete unwanted bloatware maunally and I ended up back on stock rom; I thought I would debloat the stock rom and live with that for a while. The verizon stock setup wizard gives me the unknown sim card error all the time so I thought I would try to replace it rather then delete it. Also, the colour scheme in lollipop was horrible.

Does anyone else have issues with their sim card not being detected sometimes?

Pandora Crashing

I searched for "Pandora" in the thread, came up empty.

Does anyone know of a fix to Pandora crashing? Is it just me? Is it pandora? Works fine on my wife's LG G3 running 4.4.2 but on my S5 it plays for a random amount of time, usually less than one track, then freezes up. I get the "Pandora is not responding" message.

Only fix is to close it, and reopen. It just keeps happening though.

I'm hoping for an update from Pandora.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
Same thing was happening to me. It isn't Pandora actually but if you have an ad-blocking app on your device like adaway Pandora does that. As soon as I uninstalled or froze that app, Pandora was fine
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Robertjpjr:
I'll give that a try. The ad blocking isn't working anyways.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
have you tried a modded pandora app with ads removed? i use that with adaway and not native adblocker and i have no issues
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
No I haven't, I just disabled an adblocker and it started working fine... I googled it and will try a some when I get home. Do you need an ad blocker to disable ads? And do you get unlimited skips? (I used to have an xposed module that could do all that)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
not on a modded apk with no ads and unlimited skips. not sure if teamblackout has a modded one but a simple google search or torrent search should provide plenty
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] :
Are you using one right now? Like a modded Pandora app? BC if you get the app apk extractor from play store, you could extract it and send it to me. But I'll look when I get home
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Stupifier:
ROFL! This is exactly my setup! Funny....I also have the Modified Pandora app. Has No Ads and unlimited Skips. Using that allows me to use my Custom AdAway adblocker as well. Its a really nice setup.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] JOLiu:
I had a question re: the debloater. Does that zip file simply delete all of the files that are found within the directory for the at-issue app?

When I go into a file explorer and look at the directories for the at-issue bloatware (e.g., Blurb), the folder will include a blurb.apk and another directory entitled "arm", which includes 2 files: blurb.odex.art.xz and blurb.odex.xz.

I wanted to know whether there are any cons to running the debloater and deleting all of these files, as opposed to freezing them via Titanium Backup.

Also - does the debloater only work on this ROM, or would it work on a stock, rooted ROM?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
If anybody is looking for a replacement to Viper, installing Cyanognemod's AudioFX works pretty well. If anybody wants, I'll make a flashable zip.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] evilryry:
Nothing compares to viper ;(... I feel lucky I have it. Sorry for those who don't have it anymore, hopefully a work around is found.

Sent from my Supercharged KT Powered S5
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
in theory it should work on odex bcuz a debloat script should remove the entire folder of said bloat.. so it should remove the entire blurb folder and not just certain files..

i could be wrong however lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] crevis24:
I would like to try it out. I miss viper too. Haha
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] JOLiu:
Thanks for the response. What are the pros/cons of freezing the bloat (via Titanium Backup) v. deleting it (whether manually or via the debloat script)?
