Do you know how to install a custom recovery so that I can installed xposed? Or if I were to install a different ROM would I have to flash the ni2 kernel every time to get into SS to flash a new ROM?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Badger50:
SS is your custom recovery. And if your on any lollipop rom, then yes, you need to use the N12 flasher app to enter SS to flash whatever. Then flash a corresponding lollipop kernel to your rom to exit SS.

What is the difference between MOAR and MOAR Google?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Badger50:
Google one uses all Google apps, very minimal Samsung footprint on this rom.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] LiquidT:
So the MOAR would have more of a samsung footprint over the MOAR Google? You think the MOAR Google is better?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Badger50:
It's all personal preference. I like the Google one better myself. But that's just me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] LiquidT:
I ended up installing the MOAR_Google, Why does it seem that I don't have data when WIFI is connected? What I mean is. Location is set to high accuracy. I went to my weather app (go weather) and it will not find my location. I turn off my WIFI and it finds my location very fast. Does anyone know of a ongoing problem? Also not sure that the GPS is working, will look for the fix later.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Is there a fix for the camera to function correctly when using the MultiWindow app and selections? It doesn't take a pic after you back out of gallery after viewing the photo. I did notice that it works in his latest release of the Phoenix ROM for our Verizon variant. I know we would love to see the latest MOAR on this device. If it's at all possible. Just wishful thinking....☺

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Chopstix9:
I installed this a few hours ago, haven't had time to run it through its paces but from what I've seen thus far, I REALLY like it. It's so nice to have customizations back that I haven't had since my GNEX! And on 5.0 to boot !! I was running Optimal and I am not going to knock that at all, it's a solid, smooth running ROM , but it is pretty much stock OG5. THIS, with all of the customizing goodness, is what being able to root is all about IMO. So far all I can say is damn fine work and thank you ...

Freezing

I dont know if anyone else is having this problem, but i download the MOAR_VZW_6_62_BOC4_V8 version, get through setup and everything, start to restore my apps in google play store and after about an hour or so my phone just freezes. If the screen is off, i simply cant turn it back on and if the screen is on, it simply freezes in that state. Im not able to do anything besides restart the phone and it will work for a while and just repeat the problem. I've tried searching for a solution in this thread, dont know if i missed it, but i would appreciate some help please :crying:

I just wanted to show some of you my battery life that I have been getting with this Rom. This is with little to moderate use, Have watched some youtube videos, pandora radio, calls, texts, googling, atc... I'm not a gamer. That is around 61 hours with 31% battery left people, that is crazy with a samsung galaxy s5.

Have to thank [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION]
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Chopstix9:
Only problem I have found so far is in the sound settings in MOAR settings. I tapped on linked volume, to link notification volume to ringtone volume. It says 'automatic reboot' which it did as soon as I tapped on it. After selecting linked volume it rebooted and went in to a bootloop. Tried several times pulling the battery and booting and it was stuck in a boot loop. Had to Odin back to stock, re-install ROM and restore my backup from safestrap. That is the ONLY issue I've found. Really happy with the ROM a week in.

One or two other questions ... I notice I am still on NCG baseband version. Is there OC4 or other compatible firmware to update the radios? And, being on OC4 based ROM, I imagine there's no way to up the dialer and keyboard to newer versions? Minor stuff, really like the ROM just wondering about any enhancements that can be done or if it being OC4 that's the best I can get out of it?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Mr.KJ:
Hi,

I was wondering if [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] or anyone else can help me? I recently came back to this ROM, and it is really good, but I just had one little issue, maybe someone can help me with? The battery life is amazing with this ROM, but as soon as I uninstall a few apps, using Titanium Backup, the Battery life suffers a bit.

Here are the apps I am uninstalling through Titanium Backup

-Google + ( I don't use it at all so it is just taking up space)

-Hangouts ( I don't use it, and don't want to take chances with StageFright)

-Messages[Or whatever the stock text messaging app is called] (Again StageFright)

Here are the steps I am taking to perform the uninstallation

1). Go into Titanium Backup and find the Apps and Uninstall it

2). Go to NI2 Flasher and get into Safestrap and Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache

3). Flash OC4 Kernel

4). Reboot.

I might be wrong, but maybe another process, service, or app is trying to find the app that I deleted and is running causing the drain?

It is not a huge drain, and I am in no way saying anything negative about the ROM, I just want to get it fixed if possible ^^ Still a great ROM though.

I thought it might be an Installation Problem so I have done the following and got the same results

1). Reinstall the ROM (Tried this three times)

2). Redownloaded the ROM (Could be a bad download)

and I am still getting the same results.

Thanks in advance for your help and input guys. ^^

You could flash the og5 firmware witch has the bootloader removed to have all the rest updated to og5.

[MENTION=6281102]Mr.KJ[/MENTION]

Not real sure what uninstalling those apps would have to do with the battery drain. I do have hangouts and google+ uninstalled. I did not uninstall the stock messaging app. I don't use the stock messaging app, I use the Go messaging app. You can see from a few posts back that I have great battery life. I use root uninstaller to uninstall apps.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Mr.KJ:
Interesting, it seems that the only differences are, we used different uninstallers and I Uninstalled one more app, hmm maybe jrkruse has more input?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Chopstix9:
Since you are using TiBu anyhow, why not try freezing apps first to test the results before uninstalling them?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] apsavarese:
I just randomly lost data connection... Re-flashed after wiping data/cache/dalvik, but still don't have any data. Has anyone run into this problem?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sean19661:
What rom are you coming from are you on the same firmware boc4 ? If not try flashing the firmware to match this rom if that doesn't work maybe got a bad download
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] apsavarese:
I've been using moar pretty flawlessly for almost a month now, and I swear I lost data out of nowhere. I'd flashed bog5 firmware. Think I should be flashing boc4?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sean19661:
I don't think bog5 will make a difference you could try flashing boc4 because you don't have to start over just flashing firmware if that doesn't work I would redownload the rom and firmware to your computer and start over try not to restore data also also check with Verizon make sure it's not on their end

---------- Post added at 10:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 AM ----------

P.s check your apn settings
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] apsavarese:
Thanks for the info. I'm actually using a Straight Talk variant S5 with an unlocked bootloader, which now identifies it as an g900V, so contacting Verizon wouldn't work :(

I actually thought to look in APN settings. Where can I find correct apn settings? All I can find is someone saying input "vzwinternet" into apn. It won't let me edit any other data, other than apn.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sean19661:
Your most likely gonna have to contact straight talk have them provision your imei or if you have a backup restore it I'm not familiar with straight talk hope it works out for you

Yes viper works. You just need to flash viper4android-supolicy.zip found here. Then just use viper normally. Forger about audio music fx.

yeah it says im still on the OA8 baseband howd you get the OC4 kernel to actually stick? when i flash it it says its sucessfull but it still says OA8
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Minglesny:
I was having extreme sluggish response from most apps, I had installed V4 zip, so I decided to test the Stock Verizon 5.0 Lollipop Rom from [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] as well and it's a day and night difference, extremely fast, no lag, so I am staying with that one for now, great work though, I guess my S5 does not like MOAR ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FingerBlastJ:
Just deleted the files you specified and I can already tell a difference as I'm typing this but I'll report back after a full days use
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bitterroots:
Installed the initial release and it seemed like it had some issues with RAM utilization. I kept having background processes close. It did seem that this issue smoothed out after a bit (plus freezing some apps:D). Installed MOAR update v4 last night. All seems well. Is there any chance of adding App Settings? This is a feature that I really miss from Xposed.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bitterroots:
The issue with the volume keys when music control is still present. HD calling seems to work. Battery life seems less than Kit Kat (Optimal Rom). Bluetooth and GPS have been flawless. No issues with Wifi, but I have not used much. Also, no issues with Play Store or home button.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dydigital:
I didn't get great battery life either until I did a factory reset. Now it's excellent.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] t3t5u0:
I'll test the init.d tweaks and report back. The Contacts issue is odd, cause it doesn't crash in the Contacts app itself, only seems to happen coming out of another app. I close an app and see a contacts error message pop-under style. Not sure if that helps at all.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] snafufx:
Thanks, I went ahead and odin back to stock and started over and so far (8 hours) everything seems to run smooth. I used the same odin files, guess my first shoot didn't like it too much. I went to Extreme Syndicate rom and deleted the same files he did and no issues with lag whatsoever. Thanks again!!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FingerBlastJ:
So far it's super fast. Only issues I have after deleting init.d files is the contacts fc and I had my screen opened for less than 10 minutes while shazaming and phone got real hit and got the notification in status bar....otherwise all good
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] t3t5u0:
PROTIP:

Deleting the init.d tweaks does dramatically improve performance, or at least the perceived performance. Now about as smooth as a good Kit Kat ROM in my experience. Haven't had a Contacts FC since, but obviously there may be no direct correlation between the two. The real question is which init.d tweak was the problem? Going nuclear and deleting them all may have been a bit of overkill, but at least my phone is usable again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Metroba:
Deleted the init.d files and it is most definitely faster. Thank you.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bitterroots:
Did you restore via TiBU?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
New Update!!!

All Previous Updates Included

Fixed Music Controls Buttons

Fixed Settings layout

Fixed FullScreen InCallUI moved Video button up by menu button moved bottom keys up to make room for call swap/merge/hold when on 3 way call

Removed Intit.d tweeks to help with lag

Fixed SFinder And QuickConnect not showing when extra toggles enabled

Hopefully Fixed Home Button

Removed Exchange Security Check

For a snapper performance goto settings/developer options and change animation scales to 0.5 or 0.25

VZW_MOAR_UPDATE_V5.zip

Edit: After installing update if you still get Contact fc goto settings and clear data on contacts and contacts storage and all three of the phones apps then reboot
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bitterroots:
I have not installed v5 yet, but I have noticed another small issue with the buttons. I have the left button set for recent apps on short press and menu on long press. When I long press I get the menu, but when I release it, I get the recent apps. Not a biggie, but thought I would mention it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] prenedo:
Any init.d tweaks with update v5, or do we need to do manually again? And can the update be dirty flashed over update v3?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FingerBlastJ:
with no safestrap, can i install v5 with stock recovery?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Its a known problem I cant figure it out and the developers of the rom have not figured it out yet either.

Yes it can be dirty flashed V5 will delete init.d scripts that are cusing the problem automatically

No you need safestrap
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FingerBlastJ:
forgot to mention

the battery life is really bad on OP version

i have a zerolemon 8500 mah battery and my fine died, that never happened or even came close to happening.

is v5 any better on battery life?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
It looks like the Contact FC problem is being caused by Facebook's syncing to contacts. People having Contact FC all seem to have facebook installed and syncing contacts
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Here is A update it has some minor fixes mainly just to bring things the same as the new updated rom I posted in the OP

If you are on the version 5 update there is no need to flash this update or the new updated rom in the OP. If you do flash new updated rom I recommend full wipe. There is no need to flash any updates up to V6 with new updated rom.

VZW_MOAR_UPDATE_V6.zip
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Sum Dumb Guy:
Just to be clear. If I do a clean flash of MOAR_VZW_6.3.zip I don't need to apply any of the update zips. Correct?

Thanks,

You need to flash the OC4 firmware to get that baseband, not the kernel. If you look back a page or two you will see a reply to a post of mine with a link to all firmware versions. I just went ahead and flashed the OG5 firmware so I have the latest radios. Just BE SURE you are flashing a firmware ONLY zip that does not include the bootloader.

I wanna flash this rom though and get the kernel for it so it says oc4 for both
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Chopstix9:
That is fine you can do that. You will find the links for the firmware and the kernels just a page or so back. Take the time to read the last few pages of this thread and it should become clear to you.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Veid71:
okay so i think i understand it now i have to flash the rom then the oc4 firmware only (instead of the oa8 that it says in the guide) then the oc4 kernel and it should work correct?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Chopstix9:
Exactly. I don't know if you use flashfire or safestrap. Personally I like safestrap. Then all I have to do is run the NI2 Flasher to boot back in to safestrap to do a backup or try out a different ROM or what not, then just flash the kernel of your choosing (OG5) for me to boot back to operational.

Personally I don't understand why you would want to flash the OC4 firmware other than to have it read BOC4 in the baseband. True enough it is an OC4 based ROM but... the OG5 firmware will have you running the latest radios/modem that is out for the phone. They don't normally update the radios and make them worse. The ROM runs great using OG5 firmware and kernel. But it is a personal preference and you will be golden either way you go.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Veid71:
wait so it can run on OG5 without any problems? **** ill do that then lol so instead of flashing the OC4 firmware i flash an OG5 firmware? so heres the steps

1. boot into SS

2. do full wipe except sd card

3. flash rom

4. flash OG5 firmware only

5. flash the OG5 kernel and then im good to go?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] masterx1234:

no everything is working fine, in original post by this threads creator he says the first boot can take 15-20 minutes and states this is normal, for me it took a good 20 minutes on first bootup and now it works good, havent got to try my cellular network yet since i live in a deadzone for verizon.

As he stated, are you on a different carrier? Why would you want/need to change the APN? I am on VZW, I run up and down the road long distances driving a truck, stream radio all day long, check email on the lappy via wifi hotspot, run the web via the hotspot when I am parked and I think this ROM is terrific. No data issues at all. I run it on OG5 firmware and kernel to have the latest radios. But even when I was on NCG and OC4 basebands I had zero data issues. Something else is going on here with/about your phone that you aren't mentioning. Too many people are using this ROM without the problem you seem to be having.
