Workin good on NK2.4.4.4

First reboot to recovery after Odin Flash had a hang and then about 5 sec later it showed the old looking twrp. rebooted phone to system.

Made the mistake of adding the theme folder to ExternalSD/TWRP/, added the ui.zip to MainStorage/TWRP/theme

(Backup Folder is still on the ExternalSD/TWRP, which is what you want)

Rebooted to recovery without flashing it again and Materialized Recovery worked this time(no hang either), went to change to dark theme(my ui.zip) and also works flawlessly!

Thanks.

You need to odin flash the latest version of TWRP 2.8.7.0

Have a great day!

Good luck!

It works great for me, weird thing is after applying the themes, my backup times are cut in half. I know it's probably a fluke but i made two different nandroids and both were half as long to backup. Same version as TWRP with both tests so IDK what is going on but it's definitely faster.

Thanks for putting this together. I love tweaking customization stuff like this!

2 things...

I created a new Recovery with the dark blue/gray splash screen, and flashed it... and now I get "Recovery is not SEAndroid Enforcing" (or similar) on the initial Samsung splash screen. (Note 4 Dev Ed) I wouldn't see this before on the stock TWRP install.

I downloaded and flashed the Aroma file manager, but when I try to run it, I get an error: E:Error executing updater binary in zip/sdcard/TWRP/aromafm/aromafm.zip I tried redownloading the file, and compared the MD5 hash to the original file I downloaded, and they are the same.

Any insight/help would be much-appreciated.

Aroma file manager issue

[MENTION=6130775]uzairabdulmajeed[/MENTION]

Everything works fine for me except the aroma file manager, after I set it

up and rebooted into twrp then I click on the file manager all it does is a

quick blink and it ends up on the themed twrp screen.

Perhaps you can give me a hint about how I can fix it?

I am pretty sure I followed your instructions to a "T".

I even flashed the "holofied_aromafm_191" zip file twice

with the same results.

Thanks in advance!

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] uzairabdulmajeed:
Use the AROMA File Manager:

AROMA File Manager is not part of the theme.

The theme just contains a "shortcut" for directly starting AROMA FM, rather than going through the "install > flash zip" procedure.

Download this Flashable zip.

Flash the zip in recovery.

This will copy the Aroma FM package to \TWRP\aromafm.

In Materialised settings, tick the option to use Aroma FM.

From the main menu, the theme will now start Aroma FM instead of the TWRP file manager.

How to make the switch? ??

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zytres:
Answer

Hey bro! I have an g900p too here in orange. The thing is that in the stock sprint rom it doesnt have the option to select 4g in our local bands, so you will have to install a custom rom for G900F, rom only, no kernel. For the kernel flash the ktoonsez kernel. The rom i have been using is called xtrosolite or something like that, you can find it in the samsung s5 development forum. When you install it, if you cant enable 4g lte yet, ( im supposing you already have a 4g lte sim card) you will have to unlock the lte bands using qualcomm programs QPTS and a few others, there is a thread for that here in the forums, just look for ''how to unlock lte bands''. I hope it helps you.

Sure it'll be more expensive...unless Samsung could...I don't know... somehow shave down costs by deleting some TW feature(s) and inserting those costs savings in the merger of the 2 product lines?

Thats what Ive been saying for a year. It took a year for me to get a 32 gigabyte 8.4 inch s-series. I'm pretty upset today with Samsung anyways due to the fact I own almost everything in the Note series I had a Note 8.0 which I give to my mom, I had a Note 3 which I sold to upgrade to the nNote 4 and the Note Edge which I love. I have the 2014 Note 10.1, and Note Pro 12.2. The unveiling in a week will now not be 2 Notes. One Note 5 and the S6 Edge! I wanted a Note Edge 2 soooo bad! Then Samsung decides to make the new Notes like the S series...No more removable battery and NOOO MORE Sd Card slots! This was my breaking point. I read every form known to man and I listen to the people all year say that if the note 5 does not have a slot for an SD card or if you can't remove the back for the battery this is going to be a problem with Samsung in no way listened to the people. Also thousands of people were waiting for the Note Edge 2! I don't understand why they just don't listen to what the people want. I have all my device is rooted because I like custom ROMs and I like themes I like tweaking my device I've spent close to $5000 on Samsung merchandise in just the last couple years, only to the watch them not listen to the people.... I love my ass. But I don't know where I'm going from here

[MENTION=5976697]DionWhite33[/MENTION] tbh I loved Samsung now I am going to buy anything but Samsung until they fix many things. They are stupidly slow at updating software and also the updates on their devices has no order. I bought my Note 10.1 2014 in January 2014 and havnt heard a single thing about a new note 10.1 tablet since. Becoming a stupid company and its nice to see them lose share in the industry maybe they will wake up before its too late as they made some great devices in the past hence I own a Note 10.1 and also the S3. But my next tablet and phone wont be Samsung unless they change their mentality.

(Rant over lol)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Vasishtha:
Yes it's a shame that Samsung's leaving out the sd card and removable battery, but if we get an extremely optimised OS in return for it, then I won't complain. I can work around the sd card limitations, but I refuse to work with a stuttering peace of junk.

Wow 5000 spent? You must really love Samsung lol.

Maybe a normal tablet is the way to go, and use a capacitive stylus with it(jot pro or something)

But I can't think of an excellent Android tablet at the moment that doesn't start with Samsung or Sony.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Vasishtha:
Yea it's a shame really, the original note was a super hero... But then the note 2014 upgraded the hardware but the software seemed to have slowed down or something like that. Either way it didn't feel the same way as the original one.

I'm never going to buy another Samsung device (in 10 years maybe) because of their negligence of not properly optimising this tablet and just pushing out non critical incremental updates.

the only difference that I can see between a kitkat update from mid 2014 and late 2015 is the addition of a kinetic/friction movement effect on the floating window icons (when you try to swipe away an icon).

This. I'm a pennable tablet nutjob and have gone through so many machines now to find that "ultimate" note taking device for school. The Note 10.1 is just the perfect size and weight (IMO). I've realized at school I'll do just fine with an Android tablet considering when I go home I have a powerful desktop to work from. OneNote Android will suffice as long as I import class lecture PDF/PPTs on my desktop the night before class.

At the moment, this Note or the 12.2 are the only options with true active digitizer support. No other manufacturer is targeting note-takers, it's sad. I'd be all over a Sony tablet if they offered one with a wacom digitizer.

I really think the note tablet is dead, Samsung just doesn't seem interested. They released the tab A with spen but it's mid tier. I would buy it as I am being sold on the 4:3 dimensions but there is literally no development. It's not like we can count on Samsung to upgrade this.

Hi all!!

After spending a huge amount of hours, searching the forum, I still have doubts...

Is it possible to downgrade from Lollipop, to kitkat, without tripping knox (warranty void) in the S5???

Some say, that flashing with Odin it's ok, others say that will go in a loopboot, others say that the bootloader is not compatible, and flashing a new rom will trip knox, others say that if the rom is official, will not trip knox...

What to believe??????

If there is a way to downgrade, safely and without tripping knox, please show me how, in a step-by-step process, I really appreciate it.

Here are the mobile phone data:

SM-G900F

Firmware: G900FXXU1BOD3

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 5 General] *Detection*:
Downgrade away, I have the G900F, and flashing KK over LP works fine and does not trip KNOX

You only trip KNOX by flashing custom stuff, stock ROMs are signed by Samsung so do not trip KNOX

The only issue I had was having to flash KK twice, first flash worked but wouldn't boot, flashed again, booted first time
[Galaxy S 5 General] dicemaster:

[Galaxy S 5 General] cichy20a:

[Galaxy S 5 General] *Detection*:
You can root lollipop, but it'll trip KNOX

CF Auto Root
[Galaxy S 5 General] cichy20a:
Yeah i know that CF-AutoRoot works on lolly but I'd rather keep my warranty void :) Guess no new method on gaining root w/o tripping knox was introduced to S5 design:( If i recall S6 is rootable now without knox messed up but no go for S5 :(
[Galaxy S 5 General] gluecks:
I flashed my S5 a few months ago from 5.0 back to 4.4.2, and last week the same thing, but on my gf's Note3.

It's kind of easy and safe to do, if you do some research in advance:

- find exactly which ROM you need (the wrong one won't work and make ur phone temporarily unusable).

- download the official stock ROM

- KNOX won't trip if it's an official stock ROM.

- Boot the phone in recovery mode to wipe the cache partition and do a factory reset (after backing up the important data).

- Flash with Odin. There's many youtube tutorials on that one.

Enjoy.

If you didn't do a factory reset, wipe cache partitions etc you'll almost certainly get stuck in bootloop after flashing. In that boot up in recovery mode again, do those wipes and then restart.
