You are probably wondering why a BOA8 rom. It is so old. Well this is the first STOCK rom I have built for the S5.

I plan to build many more, as well as add more features to this one.

So I figured I would share my first stock rom and ask what you guys are looking for in a rom, suggestions are welcome.

I am new to the Samsung develpoment world so bear with me!!

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Wipe system, data, cache

2. Install Rom

3. flash BOA8 in odin or you may flash any other Lollipop firmare such as OC4 in safestrap(I could not find a flashable firmware for BOA8​

Rom is deodexed, knox free, busybox installed, prerooted, fairly fast, zipaligned and freshly cooked.

THANKS TO

[MENTION=5161352]JustArchi[/MENTION] for the kitchen

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylanpardue:
I have a Moto X 2nd Gen running the latest Cyanogenmod 12 snapshot. I have a Dimple.io (NFC buttons), and would like to use it while the screen is off.

I have Xposed Framework and have installed NFC LockScreenOff Enabler, which worked great on my Nexus 5 running stock KitKat. I've tried adding the Dimple to Trusted Devices in Smart Lock. I have GravityBox and have read that it has this feature, but I can't find it in the settings so I assume they've removed it. I've also tried a regular NFC tag. I can't get anything to work.

Does the Moto X handle NFC differently from other devices, or has there been a change to android to make the Xposed module not work? Every forum post I've found just ends with install the Xposed module. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylanpardue:
Thanks for the reply. I have been able to use the Dimple and normal NFC tags with the phone unlocked, the issue I'm having is with using them while the screen is off and the phone is locked.

I've seen Moto Skip, my phone doesn't have it installed anymore, either because of the custom rom or they might have discontinued it for the 2014 X.

Some more info on the Dimple: It's permanently stuck to the phone, and it has 4 "buttons" on it. When you push them, they activate an nfc signal to communicate with the phone.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
The skip won't work. It only worked with the moto x 2013. It does not work with the moto x 2014.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
The nfc buttons can be programmed to do other things. Start apps, change configurations, etc. So even though we can't use nfc while locked it still serves a purpose.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] willbs94:
So this has been posted only once somewhere else, but unfortunately not on XDA. I accidentally put my s pen in my phone backwards and it was stuck. Of course, I frantically pulled it out, but the end is now stuck inside the phone and will not come out.

Anyone have any advice? Would I be able to take it back under a 14 day return or warranty it? This really sucks right now.

So I advise you all not to do what I did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] Slie:
Okay, so what I suggest is putting super glue on the tip of your s pen and putting it in there. Maybe gorilla glue and use it to fish it out?

From what I read it's not coming out. The design of the locking and the pens design missed this lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] willbs94:
So I was able to get my pen out but the sensors and locking mechanism is now broken. Pen still works. You must turn off Sale pen detection I believe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] taylor7667:
I was specifically warned not to do this by my best buy sales person. I thought, well, let me see if there's resistance before it gets stuck...Nope! Like an idiot, I broke it off in there. The good news is that Samsung will repair it for a cost. I'll let you know how much. Call it an "idiot tax"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] done12many2:
This made me laugh. :thumbup:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] serpent2005:
I put my pen in backwards and had it stuck although I didn't break the end by forcing it out. I tried to exchange it at Best Buy, but was turned down. I called Samsung Support and they created a 2-day shipping label for me to send them the phone. I sent them the phone 8/26 and it is scheduled to arrive in my hands 9/10 which means I will be apart from my phone for 16 days. I was not charged for the repair nor the shipping to and from the repair center.

Thanks for the link. I would never be stupid enough to put it in backwards but just in case I let someone use my device and they do, this is great info.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] skyman63:
Yes, I thought I would never be stupid enough to put it in backwards either. But rushing to clear out from one meeting on the way to another one, talking to some folks at the same time, in backwards it went.

My only gripe with Samsung is there is absolutely NO difference in resistance inserting it backwards or forwards, although I'm not sure it would be possible to do that and keep the flush fitting s-pen.

I used the drinking straw method to remove my s-pen, and the internals of the phone are fine. Thank you Internet for saving my device!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] serpent2005:
I've seen many videos confirming the paper method works to fix this issue. Your post is the first I've heard that the straw method also works. It is the ease in which this mistake can be made that is the design flaw.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dskum:
This thread for LG G2 Unlocking band for AWS. To make it work with WIND/Mobilicity. I used the Telus D803 model. Other Canadian models might be similar.

As always try this at your own risk. If you brick your device missing or adding any steps its you! messing it up!

Lot of threads on enabling this feature is confusing for this model. Finding the right information is a wild search! The following thread is clean and great:

http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031

Wind (AWS) enabled in Telus LG G2 D803 model and is working great. Basically rolled back to Stock ROM (4.4.2), Rooted, Enabled developer-debug mode & finally for enabled Modem mode used 'Tethering' option checked in LG stock. ROM which pops in phone whenever its connected to computer. NO ADB or terminal commands, whatsoever. Check if diag is enabled by entering in dialer => 3845#*803# and going to USB Info => USB basic info. You should see the line 'functions' has diag displayed. (Note: 803 in above dialer command since its D803 Canadian model. Replace it with your sub-model number for any other G2, ATT, Tmo etc).

Once above done, connect to computer and proceed further steps.

For Windows: When connecting to computer the NDIS network adapter might interfere with your network connection. (Since modem is enabled in phone and its now tethered to computer). Just go to network settings and disable NDIS network adapter if you are using that computer for browsing as well.

Once above is done, just follow from Step 7 of above thread. Instead of HTC Modem, it will be listed as "LGE AndroidNet USB Serial Port (COMx)". For me it was COM5 for COMx. It might vary. The appropriate LG drivers needs to be installed. (Search for LGUnitedMobileDriver)

In the above thread, once in RF_NV_Manager application the line 1877 displayed a value of 82314112. I replaced to 115868544, just enabling the Wind 1700 AWS band additionally. Saved value, rebooted phone. After restarting connected in the same procedure and verified the value is saved properly by re-reading the values from phone.

Inserted SIM, though initially it didn't display WIND (On Network search) after some 15 mins it automatically connected to Wind and now Wind network comes in network search.

Works great! Thanks for all the guidance in the forums. Hope helps someone.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xaueious:
Was able to verify that this does enable diag mode, but I tested on a D800

However I ended up using the modded HTC drivers to get QXDM to see the device

I tried to mod the LTE bands as well for kicks with QXDM Pro

People on Kijij selling this for $25...

I don't know how to test to see if the bands work but so far no side effects

Should be okay to just follow the LTE guide

[Galaxy Tab S General] geminiahmed:
Hello XDA,

After 6months with this tablet I have found that the processor in my model smt700 can't handle frequencies over 1.6ghz .

When first purchased with stock kitkat the screen flickered a few times then with the OTA lollipop the screen flickered even more so.

After rooting with king root it was then that I could set and test the frequencies and voltage and my conclusion after intensive testing was that my tablet could only be stable running at 1.6 ghz... thumb down !!

At first I didn't trip knox and just flashed tw based Rome with flashfire and after still having screen flickering issues with unexpected reboots I flashed twrp and CYANOGENmod 12 with the same cpublisher overloading at over 1.7ghz...

I have now called samsung who provided me with a prepaid shipping label (Ups) and was told to in luce the original charger and take of screen protector and any case.. as well I have to put o the outside of the box a service number for my service request...

I hope that Samsung won't be so evil with my product and refuse to provide service since my knox is at 0x2 ! !

At worst maybe the refashioned the device to new and at best a WORKING replacement but at worst a complete refusal of service to my device would put a nail in the coffin as for me ever purchasing another SAMSUNG device tablet,computer or T.V.

Samsung told me the expected turn around for the servicing should be around 14days.. I will post the result once my smt700 has returned...

Thanks XDA you have always been more helpful than any of the OEM's...

P.S. has any member here returned there knox tripped tablet for service or replacement with Samsung ??
[Galaxy Tab S General] 3DSammy:
Isn't the issue when you trip KNOX that repairs which would be covered for free under warranty now going to cost you despite being only 6 months into ownership? I suspect they will just ask for a credit card number before executing your requested repairs. If you refuse they may even charge you for shipping the unit back without any changes.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ashyx:
Make sure you put it back to complete stock before sending it in.

You never know.

Also not sure how your knox counter has got to 0x2. Mine always stays at 1 no matter how many times I've flashed it.

restored it to the factory firmware, but didn't do anything about the knox value, they called me 1 hour after i dropped it off and said it was rooted and they couldn't cover the motherboard replacement underwarranty

i said "thanks" and picked it up
[Galaxy Tab S General] kms108:
You just have to be lucky, some Samsung service center takes modification and rooting very seriously, other will just ignore it.

[UPDATE]

SAMUNG returned my device with documentation about what they did. The turn around from me shipping and my tablet retuning to me was a week..

Samsung states that they soldered a part on the device and i must say "The tablet is like new"

i am very happy so far...

as far a knox it is still tripped at the same state i left it at oxo208...

great job samsung. they fixed my knox tripped device...

All,

Just wondering what launcher are you using on your Note 5? The stock Touchwiz or a 3rd party ie Nova or Action Launcher? I'm currently using Action launcher but actually considering going back to Touchwiz.

Love to hear what you guys doing.

One thing that's always nagged me about (most) HTC devices is the low available program memory. I mean these are 64M devices and despite the determined efforts of our best chefs, we're lucky to see 31M of available RAM on a clean boot.

I've seen screen shots of Treo 700wx devices and they seem to boot up with over 45M free. Impressive. I hear the Treo 750 doesn't fare quite as well but still much better than the Hermes, Wizard, etc.

So two questions: what's using all that memory on (other) HTC devices and how does the Treo manage to use so much less?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shagratt:
PalmOS most modern devices use only arround 10mb of HEAP, the rest of the memory is for storage only. So, that means they can run an app that require more than that amount of heap, even if they got plenty of ram free. It's a very eficient aproach but more limited than the ppc (pc like) memory management.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] justDave:
I know all about PalmOS's primitive memory management. It's one of the reasons I gave up on them.

The Treos I mentioned are the WM5 versions though. Both are speced at 64M of RAM and both boot with much more available RAM than even our most carefully cooked ROMs.
