MOAR V6.2 Issues

Just upgraded from MOAR 5.0 to 6.2. A few things I noticed for the Sprint Galaxy S5

1.) Huge battery drain with this new version.

2.) Data only works on CDMA mode. Can't switch to LTE/CDMA. When I press Mobile Data button under network mode it will not let me select LTE/CDMA.

Any thoughts on this. I also flashed the new stuff Rev 1.3b. Don't know if that could be causing it.

Appreciate any assistance.

I no longer have the s5, but am very familiar with MOAR 6.2. You my friend need to start from a clean slate. To me sounds like a bad download. Check md5 or redownload the rom. Make sure you are oa6 or the newest one if thats what you updated to. Wipe yourself 3x each and reinstall

I don't backup the modem in my nanoids because of the problem you're experiencing. Anyway, you should be able to restore your 2.2 backup and when it fails on the modem, just pull the battery, go into download mode and Odin this file.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarAxe:
Thanks for the response Ramer. You're always on top of things. And yeah, wish I had actually done what you just said. Instead of flashing NE5 firmware at that point I flash NE5 modem and it didn't really help.

I ended up flashing this stock tar here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2787760) which also wiped some things I wasn't expecting... like my recovery and unfortunately my internal memory. But at least my 2.2 is restored.

At some point I'm realizing that in the months between me really getting into my phone I start to lose knowledge cohesion for what exactly is in the firmware vs kernel vs modem vs whatever... and which versions of what work with which version of what else. I have four kids, wife, and a lot of stuff going on in my head... I don't have time for this. :)

This is actually why, even as an experienced ROM person, I actually LOVE LOVE LOVE when folks here write how-to's for the newbie. Simple is better. I can tell you guys a thousand stories from my time in civilian, Army, and Navy circles how the best procedures for even the most qualified operators are simple and expressly clear.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netengineer:
Quick question. Just got a new galaxy s5 for my son (haven't even turned it on) I assume it has 5.0 on it our it will upgrade as soon as I activate it. Once it's done all I should have to do is install the recovery and then from that point I can install MOAR. Correct? I won't have to Odin the full tar file?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Probably! I'm betting you'll want to sign in before odining recovery and flashing MOAR or you'll end up with that activation problem.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netengineer:
Thanks. Yeah I figured I should do all the activation, let it sit and then Odin the recovery later.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarAxe:
Wouldn't he need Odin to root it with a custom recovery?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Isn't that what I said? :D Remember, MOAR is pre-rooted, so Odin'ing TWRP or Philz and then flashing MOAR should be all that's needed, unless I'm missing something?

Edit: Oh, I see. I just "assumed" that odin'ing recovery implied a custom recovery :)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarAxe:
Yeah, you did... And then I looked back and that's what he was going to do, too.

Don't mind me... I'll be over here saying randomly unhelpful things. [emoji52]
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
lol, not a problem :) BTW, why did you decide to go back to MOAR 2.2? I'm really liking Lollipop and I know it's only going to get better in the hands of [MENTION=1167171]rompnit[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] :cool:
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
How exactly doesn the volume boost work? I have used the add-on for 50% and also used the Mods in the MOAR settings....no matter what I do, I don't seem to notice any difference?

Also, the Big Screen Caller ID only seems to show up if the screen was off before the call.

If the screen is on....it just gives the small incoming call notification screen....this normal?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashing4fun:
For what ever reason what ever I change my notification to it still plays the default whistle. Installed firmware only and using stock kernel. Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix? Otherwise everything is perfect.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
I'll let [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] answer as to "how" it works, I'm pretty hard of hearing and I sure notice a difference between stock and extreme boost.

As far as Full Screen CallerID, you did go into Mod Control and activate it? I'm getting the Full Screen CallerID whether the screen is on or off.

Edit: I may have misinterpreted what you meant. If you're contact picture is not hi-res, you'll get a smaller picture with the background blurred.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
Are you tapping OK on the screen when you select your notification sound? Seems to be working okay for me.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yes, I activated it....I then used one of the zip files from his thread to change the Background picture.....its hi res and works fine, but cant figure out why it doesnt work when screen is on.

Volume: What is the difference from using the add on in Aroma, and the Mods on MOAR settings? Maybe I am cancelling out the changes?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramer:
I don't think there is a difference. Maybe someone else knows why the FS CallerID isn't working for you when the screen is on. Maybe some other app interfering? Don't know.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightMare870:
Hey Ramer, you happen to know if theirs an option to "flip to snooze" for the stock alarm or aosp alarm? And when you have the stock alarm set theirs no icon in the status bar to see that it's active, but it still works. Is their a way to get the icon there, kinda worries me sometimes that my alarms not going to go off.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashing4fun:
Yeah I was. I went into recovery and cleared caches and all is well now. Not sure why I had to sense I did it before and after flashing but it seemed to fix it.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elwood:
Its under MOAR controls. You can find it in there. Other options are turned off by default on this rom as well

Ok,seen a few posts about battery drain,so heres what i got figured out if you are using the TW S6 launcher you will have significant battery lose probably around 30 to 40%,this might be do to the new shadows that are new and could be draining battery by using more backlight to illuminate those,so as a suggestion anyone using the s6 might want to also test my theory and try going back to the s5 TW alauncher for now

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here. I haven't used MOAR since KitKat, but now with the release of XPosed for Samsung Lollipop, I'm really looking forward to getting back to MOAR. My stock Lollipop experience has really improved since OD3. Just wanted to check if anyone is currently working on MOAR with OD3 and if there's a status update. Thanks! (Also, if this falls into a category not allowed here, please let me know).
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdunham:
We won't update to OD3 and AFAIK, a full tar still hasn't been released for this build that was released to OTA as an update about a month ago.

Also, an update to the OD3 Lollipop firmware locks the ability to use Odin to flash back to a previous firmware, even OA6 Lollipop.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chefbaker11:
Def not allowed my friend. This is an OA6 based ROM. No status updates are given because they are released when they are released, and we don't ask for them. But hey at least you posted in the right place lol! Just curious though, why do you need xposed to go back to MOAR? That's crazy talk. With MOAR, you really don't need xposed. Have you seen the latest change log for MOAR?

---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 PM ----------

I doubt its the actual update. Ita probably the prompt to register the device for updates. Register it, good to go. It wont do anything, like actually update the phone.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chmcarro:
I understand. thank you. Knowing now that the OD3 tar hasn't been released is a status update to me and do not intend to pester. I just took another look at the latest change log and lots of great stuff there. Though I would require the use of some Xposed modules before making the switch. If I missed something in the MOAR release that allows Xposed modules or root cloaking let me know.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chefbaker11:
I use xposed and have modules activated and running just fine with the latest release of MOAR. The key is to only use modules that have been updated to lollipop. For instance, xposed came to us in May, i don't use modules that haven't been updated after that.

MOAR 6.2 Update

Hey Elwood,

Did what you said and did a new download and wiped 3x. What I noticed is that when using wi-fi and turning on wi-fi calling it puts the phone into CDMA mode and it will not let you change it to LTE/CDMA. When I turn off wi-fi calling it changes to LTE/CDMA. Looks like the wi-fi calling only works on CDMA and that's why I can't change it. I'm still testing out the battery life as I finally got all my stuff setup late last night so I didn't get a chance to monitor it. Guess we'll see as we go on.

64gb sd card...

Anybody using a 64gb or larger card in their phone? I just got one and I'm confused which file system I should use when I format it. Is it better to use EXT4 or exFAT? Are they both even supported? Sorry, don't know much about this area. Thanks.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pizzlewizzle:
if you ever plan on using Custom ROMs like CM or anything else i'd format in FAT32(on an older phone i lost all my data on my sdcard bc it was exfat after flashing a Custom ROM, but this was probably on my S3 forever ago and may be fixed by now), but if you're staying on Touchwiz you can just format the card when you insert it in the phone and im guessing itll choose whatever it likes best.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bytes2bits:
I wish I had just stuck it in the phone to begin with. I made the mistake of putting it in my laptop which then said it wasn't formatted, do you wish to format it? I said yes and it only formatted it to 32gb. Long story short, I found out my reader in the laptop doesn't support sdxc cards (thus the 32gb limit). So I ordered an external reader. Do you think the phone will format it properly at this point? My thought is that the partition is already set and I don't see any option in Philz recovery to repartition. I got in way over my head here :p

You think that's the reason for the rash of users in the General Q&A who can't Odin any rom nor flash a de-odexed rom in recovery is because they took the OD3 OTA (whether they know it or not)? Since there isn't a stock rom on Sammobile, they're SOL and soft-bricked for the time being?

You can't odin any firmware on od3. There isn't even a stock od3 tar available so once they flash something else, they lose od3 stock rom forever until a tar comes out.

So just to update, I did this and it finished pretty quickly (maybe too quickly) and said complete. However when I booted the phone it doesn't see the 64gb card. Also if I connect the phone to the computer Windows tells me that the card needs to be formatted. I tried ExFat, EXT4, and Default from recovery with all the same result. I'm gonna try re-partitioning it and using something like SDFormatter once my card reader arrives.

Update to the update... I had to download a patch to Windows that allowed the internal reader to read cards beyond 32gb. I then used SDFormatter and was able to finally format the card to 64gb (EXFAT). Sorry for the lengthy post. I thought it might benefit someone in the future.

I took the OD3 OTA...

Without realizing, I went to Odin TWRP after so I could make a back up and it resulted in a soft brick. So I was not able to make a complete OD3 back up. The only way I was able to get the system back, was to Odin the stock OA6 kernel, then Philz recovery, because for some reason TWRP would fail every time.

MOAR runs perfect, as well as my stock OA6 back ups, I've been running my phone like this since the OTA was release on May 5th.

However, it sucks not having a complete back up (rom & kernel)...right now I don't have a way to completely restore my phone.

I did read in the Sprint website that this OTA will be a "phased" roll out, which will be completed by July 7th. Maybe they'll release the full TAR once that time period is complete?
