Not using this ROM, but it's not limited to this ROM. Its a Google privacy settings update. They want you to go through your settings and change it or keep things the way they are. No idea why it's not showing that for you when you pull down tho. Got it on all my devices on various forms of custom and stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuitsBoy:
Hmmm. I went through the security checkup on all my accounts linked to this phone, then rebooted, but the wrench in the status bar persists. The pull down shows nothing at all. I have not checked to see if my tablet has it yet. Do you remember where the security settings you're talking about live?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pre4speed:
No I don't. When I clicked on the notification, it opened the page for me. You could check the Google settings app. Sorry beyond that idk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuitsBoy:
You were right, the recent wrench icon in the status bar is definitely in regards to updated google privacy settings. My wife's old stock SGS5 had the same icon, but hers was easy to accept and dismiss.

I found in the TM settings that I had "Ongoing Notifications" hidden, which suppressed the ability to see what it was when swiping down. Once I turned the setting off, I could swipe down and accept the google policy notification. It drove me nuts for two weeks though...

Hey I'm about to do this with my G870A. In the steps it says "Flash ROM, zipz, rstore backup", what does it mean by restore backup? Wouldn't that just go back to how it was? Also what zips am I supposed to flash with the ROM? I'm using the Debloated with Holo Theme ROM

It just says failed in SS, not sure what I'm doing wrong, I followed all instructions exactly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
I'm sure it means restore , then make a backup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sultanmurad:
Well I messed it all up and now I want to go back to Twi5ted Lollipop, but Flashfire won't show the ROM files anymore, getting real frustrated -.-

Yep redid everything, do you think I can just flash TMS5 with Flashfire and skip the whole SS and NG3 steps?

---------- Post added at 05:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:21 PM ----------

Just flashed using FF, took about 5 minutes booting up but it works great, I'm done with SS, from now on I'll just use FF lol

Well after using Adaway, it just popped up System UI has stopped working, had to restart from 4.4.2 again...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
That's the only problem with ff as opposed to ss you can restore a perfect backup in ss. Without having to Odin every time . but you do have to flash a kernel through Odin to get back to ss but not the whole process .

Well I'm on marshmellow now ladies and gentlemen. I actually like it. I am only missing a few things not having root. Its okay though. Everything seems to be working a lot better and I plan to change phones shortly anyway
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
I'm on mm also with a umi super not much theming on this stock ROM but they are working the bugs outta cm for it and it has cmtheme engine . so hopefully soon it'll look awesome . have used it a bit but it was slower than the stock ROM so switched back . they haven't released any source yet . but bootloader is unlocked.

WHAT TO DO?

So I am almost ready to get a "new" G900T for under $200 and then sell my G900A for a $100 or so. I can't stand it anymore.

Does anyone know if any custom rom for that phone would work with ATT wifi calling? I do not think so. Maybe?

Also I am wondering if you Odin MM to the phone, will the BL still be unlocked?

The options are limited. A 910T (N4) is a big and heavy phone. Anything above that either has no sdcard or an exploding battery. If the 935-F (S7E) had a removable battery, I might splurge for the 600 bucks which is what they cost now. IDK.

Any ideas? ANYONE IN HERE ANYMORE? LOL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] nemiroG1:
I went to a Galaxy S7 International / Dual SIM. Bought it on Swappa for $520 a couple of months ago. I miss the ruggedness of the S5a, but with an Otterbox Commuter case, the S7's size is about the same, and it feels almost as durable that way. I did modify the SIM card holder (lots of tutorials on this), and have two SIM cards and a 128GB SD card in it. Rooted, can run custom ROMs (Touchwiz-based only at the moment). There are limitations, due to the Exynos processor / Samsung closed source, but overall, I am happy with the trade. My daughter now rocks my S5a, running Alliance and FreedomPop GSM SIM. Seems to work just fine.

FWIW, I did try for a long time to track down a G870F (international) version S5a. They are almost never on Swappa, and on occasion on eBay. Careful if you go that route, though, as many are advertised as F models, but when it arrives, it is an A model. Ask me how I know....

Thanks P, it is pretty, but I really want wifi calling. I HATE ATT!!! You want a laugh? All of these stupid dealers seem to be ignorant about the BL. I asked one if it was unlocked and they said they had no idea. I asked this other one the same question and this is what they replied to me:

Why wouldn't you use the G900A if you are using on AT&T? We will check the boot loader, at your request. But, just to clarify, Rooting a phone is against all eBay return policies and therefore a phone that is rooted cannot be claimed as defective. We have been in the mobile industry for 20 years. We do not engage in rooting phones or any other warranty voiding activity. We understand that you are looking for specific knowledge in the area for how the phone was unlocked, and that you think that we should know all of the specifics. We do have technical people that do understand about the phones, and we do know a great deal, however, when someone is hinting at voiding our warranty on the phone as well as asking about return policies in the same sentence, that makes us very nervous and worried that this will end with you trying to send back a phone that is rooted, malfunctioning, and stating is defective. It is in eBay policies that altering an item from its original condition (including software) is not covered under return policies. Please do not purchase our phone with the expectation of a return policy if you are going to root the phone. We are sorry if you take any offense to this, as well, but we must protect ourselves from ending up stuck with something that we are not covered on and we would have no recourse to return.

Sincerely,

Matthew

The darn thing was only $205!!! IDIOTS. I blasted them something back and told them there were plenty of dealers out there and to do something with theirs...LOL. I think I will check Swappa, since people keep talking about that. Got your email.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] inspired55:
Just make sure you get an unlocked sm-g900t. It will have an unlocked bootloader . Don't ask them if the bootloader is unlocked if it's a tmoble phone it is. Also what ever happens it can be odined back to 100% stock and they would never know you rooted it. Just do it pull the dam trigger. You won't be sorry. With this model you have endless possibilities. TW Mods or aokp Mods . PHIL out

Just curious if anyone else has experienced SMS or MMS corruption? I'm seeing mt text messages disappear on a daily basis. If I reboot, or even manually close the messaging app, they come back. While they are missing, I wont receive any texts, and the message is lost forever.

So far I have:

Tried multiple messaging apps (stock, evolve, mysms, yappy)

Ive manually renamed the smsmms.db files

Ive cleared the cache and dalvik

Ive done a full factory reset.

Ive reinstalled TMS5 over itself.

I'm at my whits end, and I'm losing important text messages (work monitoring / altering system) while the app is crashed or corrupt. Does anyone have any suggestions? Ive seen a few accounts of other people running into this on other platforms, but no real fixes. Maybe its a hardware issue and the memory is actually corrupt. Not sure what to try next.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] twistedvip:
Not getting the messages to disappear, but I so frequently get messages to come in sometimes 3x with the same message. Recently I've been getting texts that come in completely a different language that are super long and look like this:

'?????*????*??*????????????*??????*????????????*??*???*???????????*????*???????*??????*????????*??*???*????*????*???*????*?????????*????*???????*?????*???*??????*??*?????*????*?????*??????*??????*????????*??*???*????*??????????*????*???*?????*???*??????*???????*??????*?????*???*????????*???????????*??????*????????*????*???*??????*???*??*?????*?????*??*????*??????????*?????*???*???????*??????*?????*???????*??????????*??*???*????*??????*????*????*???????????"

Misery loves company.

I recently uninstalled all but the essential apps, and stopped whatever built in apps I could. Still had my texts disappear this morning. About to wipe and re-flash again...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
I use an older version of GO SMS PRO, don't use that crap that comes from googley for much...I do not have any problems, but I probably dont text as much as most of you do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuitsBoy:
For what it's worth, I recently soft bricked the phone trying to go back to dynamic kat, then un-bricked back to NCE, upgraded to rooted stock 5.0, and finally back to TMS5. Then I manually restored all apps, instead of restoring through google and TuBu. I have refrained from installing any browser based text app. So far so good. It's been 2 days without my texts disappearing.

The unfortunate part is that I have no idea which step may have been the one that helped my situation...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
Use titanium backup and uninstall it. Then buy the paid version its plenty worth it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GuitsBoy:
Just to close off an open end, I traced the disappearing text sms/mms db corruption issue to a third party app which had "notification access" even though notifications were turned off in the app itself. The app was for a bike GPS which allows text messages to display on the screen of the GPS unit. I had disabled notifications in teh app itself, but the crashing persisted until I revoked "notification access" in settings.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] talkingmonkeys:
I just want to say it now too. Just because I put out the changelog for it doesn't mean I want anyone asking for ETAs.

I successfully am on MultiSystem with selinux set to permissive. Sam I'll try to remember to test out viper4android later. Right now I'm testing 1.1 on my virtual rom slot as soon as I finish fixing the updater script so it doesn't overwrite the main system. :P

Edit: Already found something with it I really don't like. The fact system data is shared is awful. 1.1 bootlooped. Guess I need to find the cause of that now, great. Also the problem here is when I reboot to the stock slot after wiping system data it wipes it on the stock slot as well. This needs separated. Reminds me this damn checking connection screen in setup wizard has to go. Or the whole setup wizard...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
i hate to post (but i will...) on your b-day young man. u should be out partying!!! anyway thanks for the mention. i might PM u tomorrow (not gonna on your b-day) about the MultiSystem. You did see where i posted that somebody said it did not work, although i do not know what phone they had. most people posting in the Q & A have v note 3's. i have been trying to find that post to read it again. so i attempted to install multisystem. i read ALL the posts in ALL the threads. a little geeky at times for me not knowing much about linux. i have a spare 16GB card i used, but i dont have a sdcard reader so i had to use that APART app, which actually does work contrary to what was said in that thread (might be hope for viper) and it did it, but there was no option to make sure they were Primary partitions. it did partition correctly by what the app said (HA!), but then i had to read up on ABD and terminal emulator stuff. i installed it, but i dont think i did. i uninstalled it and then put my regular 32GB sdcard back in(will be getting a 64gb one) and then FF restored my Alliance (yes on that for now...not white....all over that is...LOL) just in case just because i ran that zip file, but i did it outside of Multisystem. i know i screwed that up...i think...LOL. i am going to try it again later, just trying to unload some stuff in my tivo.

great stuff in the 2.0 TMS5. Alliance is nice. i have the long press home button doing screenshots. sweet. the two finger ss is not good WHEN YOUR HANDS AND FINGERS DONT WORK SO WELL...LOL. ok, later. have one of something at least later!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] talkingmonkeys:
lol Sure seemed like a good idea but if I used safestrap and a backup I'd be back on it already. An hour after starting the process I'm frustrated by it wiping system data across both slots and me sitting at either optimizing apps rebooting three times or this connecting screen in setup wizard. Anyone remember if it was in Alliance? If not I'll have to see what they did and disable this stupid setup wizard until we find something. Its trying to check for OTA from the carrier or something, thing is theres none to look for so its just searching forever for software updates. Thats at least what I take it as. Usually it hasn't taken me so long to get past it.

Sadly multisystem removed safestrap so I have to wait for this setup wizard to pass if it ever does..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samccfl99:
Did it really? I always have a SS bu just in case. you mean you odined back the OA1 kernel and when it booted SS wasn't there? thats my lifeline, never had to use it though. Gee, i dont know if mine is like that. i do not think it really installed, but never got very far. was just sitting down to try it now and read your post. was backing up phone and its still going. I TAKE NO CHANCES...LOL.

Now a few minutes later....NO SS. i checked app first, said installed. odin to OA1. long boot then to system recovery. odin OC4 back and it booted. tried NCE Flasher. nope. odin back again. hmmmm. gotta eat, will play later and then give update. i think i will first try to uninstall SS and install and see if at least it still works. later.

Update: now that i think about it, i did an FF restore after i tried to Install MS. hmmm and oops....

WELL IT LOOKS LIKE I LOST THE ABILITY TO GO BACK TO OA1 KERNEL. guess i am going to have to post on the MS Q & A thread. crap.

Crap...sorry I missed this. NP. Try to have a good rest. You will figure it all out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] talkingmonkeys:
No rest I'm figuring it out. Think I'm missing something after downgrading to nce here though. Every time I install towelroot then make it rain, reboot, download super su, update binary, skip disabling knox because it seems to just hang forever. reboot. install flashfire. flash the oc4 stock firmware/kernel tar and the partitions with oa1 bootloader and it just reboots the phone twice and kills my ime. So the process restarts and repeats itself. This has been my last 4 hours. :eek:

Safe to say I'm getting it all set back up and taking a little break. Probably not, I always say this and keep going. So lesson learned. No safestrap if you use multisystem. Its not really needed anyway but I wanted my backup back, Oh well whats lost is lost. Time to just start fresh I guess. If only 1.1 would of booted. I have to figure out what caused that bootloop too.

It was my fault for trying to use safestrap but its just been awful trying to get back from nce. I know theres something I'm missing.
