Running 1.81 for a few days and it seems much zippier, no more bouts of paralysis so far :). Want to try adding Alliance framework with the aroma-v.1.5 zip everyone's been using. Does it wipe settings, can I just flash it with Flashfire over 1.81/oe2?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] neilfairall:
'Upgrading' at startup?

I flashed 1.81 over 1.8 and I am seeing an 'Android is upgrading' message every time the phone is started. This is the dialog you get when cache is cleared, but it does not go through all the apps as it would at that time, just notes that it is 'Starting apps'.

I am also having GPS issues, in that it will just occasionally drop out.

I have just wiped the phone entirely and started with a fresh 1.81, and the first issue mentioned above still appears to be present. Too soon to say for the latter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dave812:
In my experience my it is typically a hacked app or something you flashed that causes the upgrading at startup problem. Could that be part of the problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] arokace:
This ROM was Deodexed but was it also Zipaligned? I searched the thread for 'Zipaligned' but nothing showed up so I figured I'd ask just to make sure.

Also, if anyone knows which other ROMs from the General Galaxy S6 Dev forum work for the AT&T phone (G920A Phones) could you let me know. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] neilfairall:
Could you give me an example of a 'hacked' app? I'm not clear what that means. As far as things that use root or set themselves up as system apps, I have things like Titanium Backup for the former, and BetterBatteryStats for the latter. Nothing like Xposed that requires flashing to install though.

I suppose I could do it over from scratch yet again and see how it behaves before I install all of my favorite apps.

I don't seem to be seeing quite so awful problems with connectivity but I do occasionally see GPS stop working for a few seconds, and also Bluetooth will just disconnect itself and then reconnnect in the car. A radio issue? I guess I would have to flash back to complete stock to see if it were a ROM issue rather than a possible hardware one. Yuck.

I note that although application handling appears to be better, it still slows down to a crawl now and then and is 'fixed' by closing all apps and rebooting.

Samsung - never again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dave812:
It's very easy to back up using flashfire. Then you could wipe and reflash the ROM to see if the problem continues. You can then just as easily restore to where you were without missing a beat. In my experience restoring with Titanium anything other than a few play store apps will irreversibly jack up your installation (system apps are a no no), and that is likely your problem IMHO. I'll defer the hacked apps question, as we're not allowed those discussions here.

Also, as for your Bluetooth and GPS prob, those too can be caused by restoring system apps with titanium. For me this ROM is super tight, and I have zero issues.... Way better than stock for me. Try a truly clean of this ROM, I bet you'll be pleased.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
The only changes in 1.81 were updates to Nova, Ada way and tweaked build prop settings, nothing else was changed, I recommend a fresh install.

Could you post your about screen, where it shows the build?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] neilfairall:
Hope this works!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Are you running Alliance framework?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] neilfairall:
No sir, I am not. I'm getting ready to flash again and I'll hold off restoring any data until I determine how things look.

I will note however that my wife complained today about intermittent bluetooth disconnects in the same car today, and she has an HTC phone, so that may have been a red herring!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Israelsalinas19:
How do i remove the 3 minite battery mod ?? And can we use xposed with this rom ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Xposed is not available for 5.02 based roms :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] timde9:
Yeah I mentioned several times in the xposed thread that we need a port to 5.0.2. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard but the developer might just not care about our problems since we are just a subset of s6 users. Every time I suggest such a thing the post just gets ignored
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] kembacha:
This is the info of my phone:

Device name: S6

Model number: Sm-g920a

Android version:5.0.2

Basseband version: G920AUCU2AOF4

Kernel version: 3.10.61-4823236 dpi@swhd4901#1

Build number DONGCHAO.A905

Security enhanceme: enforcing

Security software version Mdf v2 realease 2

Vpn v1.4 realease 4.1

Its a custom rom but the battery is drain very fast. And im loading your rom right now

Can i flash your rom, using flashfire as you write above?

Please give me some advice. And sorry for my bad english
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Valantur:
What are the other benefits of flashing a deodexed rom, besides being able to use xposed? (I've a g920a so no Xposed available on 5.0.2)

Thanks.

Is this compatible with Cricket Galaxy S6 (G920AZ)?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] KnownDominance:
"Ok Google" detection is not working on my phone, it wont even work in app and I cant train the voice model, is this a problem with the ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] avuman:
I love this rom. Any news or update on if one will be created for Android 5.1.1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
I really with I could continue this ROM, despite no longer being the owner of an S6. But the future of root on this device, is looking bleak.

I will still continue to check back periodically.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jmoss1972:
I did see mention of a possible exploit in a different forum but I hope some one with the skills can maybe do something with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] rob219:
i posted this in the help section in a thread someone was asking about 5.1.1 root. i came across this kernel exploit for linux and android (linux kernel 3.9 and up i believe or 3.8 and up.) patches are rolling out for linux distros but for android it will take longer because of carriers having to put their sticky fingers on everything, so if its any good we certainly have time to find out if any devs want to play around with it. im up for testing the results of a know long time dev here on xda only since this could be used as an attack on the system as well remotly.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
What device did you end up with?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
I plead the 5th.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
I am not a dev, I am just a dude that borrowed Dennis's Deodexed base ROM, which was borrowed from Scrosler, then put my own spin on it. But I will release a new version, if it comes to fruition.

Lets hope.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
New Temporary Root for S6 5.1.1, maybe... just maybe Ultra Light 2.0
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] LiquidSilver88:
I can't install this after rooting with rootking?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] huggstown:
Does anyone have a link to download? And yes I know what firmware I'm running. Broke my s7 so I have to run with my s6.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Seems root for these devices is a thing of the past :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] freecore.mc:
any1 have flashfire apk?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Mentalmuso:
No sweat, and while I've got you on the phone.. Does it matter much that I am still on the OCE firmware with this ROM? Or do you recommend Odin to stock etc
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Personally, I recommend upgrading to the newest firmware, you will likely see an increase in speed and better battery life, but you could just wait until the next base if your not having any issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] NizzleFish98:
Is there any way to change the clock from the middle back to its original spot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] King p1n:
Titles misleading.

Touchwiz is more than a launcher, so Touchwiz is definitely still there.

Nice rom though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
You make a good point, reading the description in the main thread can certainly be a challenge for some people :) But honestly isn't Touchwiz really just a launcher, and isn't the theming just Nature UX?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] shyshyguy:
Edge Settings

Great job with the ROM. Almost feels like my Nexus 6. Any chance that Edge Settings will be back in the next version as I would love to use the edge capabilities on my S6 Edge. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
This ROM uses Nova Launcher instead of Touchwiz, so if you want Edge features, this is not the ROM your looking for. I would try Scrosler's Slim ROM in the Galaxy S6 Edge section.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] mca1490:
what about the ram management tweak?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. The changes have been made and I am ready to upload.

Question: Should this be 1.3.1 or 1.4 ?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
As of right now, the update is canceled.

Running Geekbench 3, I am consecutively getting 3K to 10K less, from 50K originally down as low as 40K. I will continue running benchmarks and testing to see if its just a fluke.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Turns out, the phone was just running hot due to flashing, updates and benchmarks. thus likely was scaling the process and GPU down.

1.3.1 Release is pending.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] mca1490:
perfect!! tks for your work !

Waiting for the update
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] WizeGuyDezignz:
Awesome! Is 1.3.1 going to be Nova or Touchwiz for the launcher? If Nova, which of yours should I flash for Touchwiz?

**EDIT** I see that your Touchwiz version is discontinued but is available upon request? Here is my request lol. I heavily prefer Touchwiz over Nova. Would it be worth requesting that version from you or can I just flash version 1.0 (which I still have saved) and add the RAM tweaks myself? Or is there too many updates to your ROM since 1.0 that would make sense for you to do a Touchwiz version of your current ROM?

Please let me know, thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Link to Touchwiz based 1.3.1T sent via PM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] WizeGuyDezignz:
You are awesome, thanks so much!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jhester1967:
Touch Wiz version?

Could I too have the copy based off of touchwiz as well please? Looking forward to trying your rom with the memory tweaks added.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] kuaka:
I too, would like a touchwiz link please. I can always download Nova Launcher / Prime from the store if I end up preferring that. I like options. Also, I finally got scrosler's CleanROM looking exactly how I like, so I think it'll be easier to configure yours to be the same with Touchwiz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
PM Sent with link.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Pure+:
Quick search didn't yield anything so here goes... Can I flash this rom coming from clean rom without wiping data?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Mentalmuso:
Yep. Might not work though.

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

Just joking around, if you're flashing from an odexd to deodexed rom, I'd wipe. But deodexed to deodexed should be OK.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
I prefer to not have a battery icon and just use a battery bar app instead. When I disable the percentage it seems like there's a good amount of wasted space to the right of the signal bar(s). I know I'm nit picking, but I would really love it if that space was reduced to match the vertical spacing.

Camera add on issue

ROM working fine.. But I have an issue when clicking download in the camera mode section.

Com.sec.android.samsungapps is disabled.. How can I fix this? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
I am confirmed that this is a bug, I will work on it. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Alpione:
Thanks for the ROM. I'm using this as my base for trying frameworks, etc. Running nicely!

EDIT: So I can't seem to get Alliance Framework to install. It loads up in Flashfire but exits without going to Aroma. Any ideas? It mentions compatibility as OE1 or newer and deodex, which we've got here.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
I am having network problems that I didn't have before flashing this. Wifi is connected but no data comes in, if I disconnect and reconnect then it works fine for a while. Sometimes when downloading things, then it just stops for a few seconds and then starts again. Apps are hanging too because of this issue. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
This ROM is literally just a stock pre-rooted ROM that has been deodexed, and junk apps removed. I would make sure that your on the newest firmware, and then try a fresh installation, I have not had this issue, and nobody else as reported it, I will keep an eye out though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
Thanks for the quick reply. I think that might be the issue. I thought I flashed UCU1AOE2 before I installed the ROM but maybe not. It's showing UCU1AOCE in the "About device" section. I think I may have Odin the wrong one on accident. Whoops! :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
When I first got the S6, I flashed Scrosler's CleanROM and had WiFI issues, turned out that despite getting the OTA update, it never took, and was on the old AOCE FW.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
Wow, yeah, well I'm not even sure what I did at this point. I knew the OTA wouldn't work so I flashed the update using Odin. Either that failed or I flashed the wrong thing and I need to get my files more organized. Haha, it's rebooting now, I am hoping this solves my issues. *face-palm*

Great work on this! I am looking forward to seeing more options;

Reduced spacing in the status bar (left/right)

Ability to toggle the AM/PM in the centered clock

Ability to hide the alarm clock icon

Ability to hide the bluetooth icon

Weather on lock screen or centered clock

A fix for maps crashing at initial boot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
There is no way to create toggles, the ROM either has these things or they do not. Keep in mind that I cannot customize this ROM to match everyone's tastes, and that customizing it for a single person is just not feasible.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] elbringit:
Hey guys, I'm new to rooting and flashing roms..i am currently running 1.2 version of this ROM.... But I never received the att update and I don't know what steps I should go through.

I think

1. Back up apps and settings w titanium backup

(this is the biggest fear I have I have nova launcher deeply configured since it came with this rom and I don't wanna lose those settings)

2. Flash the uploaded zip of the att update w flash fire

(will this unroot my phone?)

Now I know stepstep 3 would be to flash the newest version but do I need to root again?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
This has all of the files you need, and instructions are included.

Return To Stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] elbringit:
So flash 1.5 after going thru the process with the return to stock files?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Correct, just make sure you take the OTA update before continuing.,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] gpirtle:
Upgrade 1.3.1 to 1.5

Is there a proper way to dirty flash 1.5 over 1.3.1? I know clean flash is always preferred, but I assume there is a recommended method.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Yes, just wipe Davlik cache first then flash, shouldn't be an issue as their both Deodexed ROMS on the same base.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] joqsan:
Where do I find the wifi calling?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Go to Dialer - More - Settings - Wi-Fi calling on the bottom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] gpirtle:
Thanks Rayman360. Version 1.5 is stellar! It's by far the best build I've ever used on my AT&T S6. Do you have a preferred donation method? I would like to donate to support the cause. I'm hoping there will be a UltraLight version based on the 5.1.1 build when it's available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] joqsan:
How do you use wifi calling. I have it enabled under the dialer settings but when I go to make a call when I have no signal but I do have wifi it still says no network available. Maybe I'm just an idiot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
I just flashed 1.5 and now I have this really ugly battery icon in the top right. What is this and how do I kill it with fire?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
This was added in 1.4, its called 3 Minit battery mod. You can change the icon by going into the 3 Minit app and changing it to whatever icon you would like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
Thank you. :)

My gps isn't working on this rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
What is your baseband version?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
This is likely related to firmware. I do not have a Galaxy S6 Edge to test this on, I do not recommend this ROM with that device, to be safe stick to the Galaxy S6 Edge Section.

Sorry man.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] joqsan:
It's been working great just the navigation isn't sticking

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] DigitalUnderground:
I still don't think I understand the return to stock zip. Will that return me to stock, out of the box, unrooted touchwiz? Or is it to return to stock version of your ROM if you've applied themes or something?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Return to STOCK Touch-wiz, this allows people to go back and take the OTA update to UCU1AOE2, in case they missed it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] DigitalUnderground:
If I'm rooted running cleanrom oe2, can I flash that as a shortcut to get back to stock instead of using odin?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
The zip itself is not flashable, but contains everything you need to return to Stock Touchwiz (Odin, Odin flashable firmware files and instructions.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
Your not the only one having this issue, and I will investigate this fix, thank you for bringing it to my attention. Sorry if I came across as abrasive, I had to deal with a lot of people with firmware issues blaming the ROM for stuff they did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] RFrancis:
With all due respect I had the same issue and I flashed the GPS patch
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Rayman360:
I cannot guarantee compatibility with any other carrier other than AT&T, this rom is intended for the AT&T S6 only. I do not have the means to support this ROM with other carriers, I only have the phone on AT&T. This is my first ROM I have ever done, I have a lot to learn, maybe in the future I can bake a multi carrier ROM.

Sorry about that.

With the patch it works great. I really needed a simple and light ROM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] natefish:
I can't seem to train the voice model for Ok Google from any screen. Is that possible in this ROM?

Yes, you have to go into Nova Settings - Look and Feel - Ok Google

Not using Nova, but the actual Google app. Can't do it from the Google app? I use AL3 for a launcher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] DigitalUnderground:

This GPS fix is intended for the T-Mobile Variant of the S6, its likely that when you flashed the file, it broke your GPS. What baseband are you on?
