To be honest, that I wouldn't know. I never restore anything from a previous ROM due to they (apps/data) may conflict with the current ROM I'm using. But that's just me and what I do. Others may chime in to their ways...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] johnnybg00d:
Go read my post #438....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ykjae:
Sounds easy enough.. Last question I'll have is I just flash the og5 kernel? I thought if you flash the og5 kernel you couldn't go back? Thanks for all the support I really appreciate it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] SoccerRef12:
I believe if you flash the OG5 build you can't go back, the OG5 kernel is OK.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sean19661:
As long as your bootloader isn't after bod5 you can downgrade kernel doesn't matter

Thanks for all the help. I now have working GPS!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] masterx1234:
forgive me for asking, but what version of android is this rom based on? i see no info about which build its based on, thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Build is OG5, as it's stated in the OP on how to install....
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] masterx1234:
is OG5 Lollipop or kitkat and what version 4.4.4 or 5.0? i have no idea what OG5 is.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] freak69ize:
5.0
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Just as stated above, it's 5.0/Lollipop

So far I'm really enjoying this ROM except 2 minor things. I can't get Steam or My Verizon Mobile to run properly. When they open its the apps home screen but just all blank. Anyone else having this issue or know how I can possibly fix this?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] SoccerRef12:
Have you tried to delete data and start fresh using the system application manager? Usually, when apps misbehave, I find that fixes it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Exmix:
Like uninstall, delete the data with the application manager and try to re-download/install? Yes.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] SoccerRef12:
No need to uninstall, just delete data in application manager, then launch the app again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Exmix:
Verizon, I get this main page where it shows my holiday offers, I can swpie from the left side and get the menu but when I select anything, it doesn't go to the page, just stays on the main page.

Steam, nope, still the same issue, logs me in, I put in my verification code andj ust a blank blue screen.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] SoccerRef12:
I don't use Steam, but My Verizon works fine for me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Exmix:
It's fine, im still trying out various ROMs and I found one that does alot smilar to this one that i'm really enjoying.

Just no matter what I did(Clear data force stop, uninstall, reinstall, I couldn't get Steam or My Verizon to open without closing right away
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] SoccerRef12:
When all else fails, do the four wipes and reinstall the ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ridenickel9:
Did this and got my GPS back.

Had a stock rooted ROM backup, went back to it after backing up current PHX10, got a good GPS lock, went back to my phx10 backup (all this without wiping a thing)

GPS now works great.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] RiggsDaRuler:
Great rom
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jagrave:
Which ROM did you find?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Exmix:
The "MOAR ROM"

Has alot of the same customization features and that's what I really like, It has some extra stuff with it that the Phoenix ROM didn't have which was kinda a bummer but I ended up just uninstalling what I didn't like/want.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
This Is Very Important!!! If You Are On BOE1 BOG5 Or BOK3 Bootloaders Do Not Flash Any Firmware Zips Found Here Or In My Other Threads Or Other Threads They May Have Older Bootloaders In Them And They Will Brick Your Phone!!!!! Only Flash The Ones That Specifically Say They Are For BOE1 Or Later Bootloaders!!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] supercell2000:
Why not? What's changed?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
If your still on pre BEO1 Boatload then nothing has changed

Hey guys! I need help ASAP!

I'm in Toronto Canada right now and paid for an international plan while I'm here, but its not working. Does this ROM no allow for international connection? I have tried turning on and off data and data roaming features and changing to Global Network Mode (and back and forth form other network modes).

Any ideas?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] johnnybg00d:
What do you mean by not working? The cellular service (voice) or data?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] KjK89:
So I was actually able to get data working for a couple seconds at a time. It even said 4g next to the "nill" symbol, signifying no bars. Every once and a while the outline of bars show up but are never filled in as well. No matter what symbols are showing, I have not been able to make calls. I get errors like "Mobile network not available" and something about not having access sometimes.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] johnnybg00d:
I recently went oversea and had SIM problem too. But mine was no data. Phone and WiFi are fine but no data. I found out that it was no APN. There are no APN manager in my setting so I had to download an APN manager from the play store and add new APN before it work again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] SoccerRef12:
Any plans to update this ROM to OK3? Or can I back up this ROM, flash OK3 and restore the backup? Btw, love the battery on this ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] KjK89:
Need some help here! :(

I haven't used safestrap in a while (I've been using flashfire), but I decided to try some updates through SS today and tried using the app that I believe came with this ROM and now I'm stuck on the Android System Recovery "manual mode" screen...

The app i used was called SS for Lolipop or something and when I opened it, I first checked to see if SS was installed. It said it wasnt, but I don't remember removing it from when I used it in the past.... to be safe, I clicked uninstall SS and then reinstalled it using the same app. After that I clicked the button to boot into SS.

Any help to get my phone back would be greatly appreciated! I was on the latest build of this ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Just use Odin and flash bok3 kernel
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] KjK89:
Sorry, meant to come back and update! That's what I ended up doing I just couldn't find the Odin flashable file for a while. Worked like a charm once I did. Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Got a new update for this rom coming soon, not a big one just going to bring it to same version as main thread
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
This is not the rom update yet but a safestrap update

For those of you who already have safestrap installed. Here is and update zip to update safestrap. I removed the rom slots since you cannot use them. also added a reminder to flash lollipop kernel

Here are the directions

Download Lollipop_Safestrap_Reboot_Extended_PM_V3.zip

reboot to safestrap and flash zip

flash BOK3 kernel which zip will automatically install on your sdcard and internal storage in .1OK3_Stock_KERNEL folder

return to rom and open lollipop safestrap and click on Install Safestrap and click Uninstall Recovery Accept any SU prompts

after it says State: Not Installed reboot phone

open lollipop safestrap and click on Install Safestrap and click Install Recovery

After State says Installed reboot phone. If state doesnt change after clicking Install Recovery then reboot phone and come back To this point and see if it says State Installed. If not try again

Now you will have updated safestrap
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] saycbone:
Just installed the update and went through the steps and it showed it as Installed. Went to reboot to Safestrap and it went to Recovery booting..

Tried the N12.tar via Odin but it reboot to Recovery..so i guess somehow Safestrap isn't there anymore..strange..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
just install it again
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Update to bring this to the latest version. Just flash update using safestrap or flashfire

PhoeniX.ROM.V10.5.OTA.Update.G900V.zip
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] KjK89:
So this is just an update for if you are on 10.2? Is there a file to download a full rom install of 10.5?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
You have to be on 10.2 first then flash update. If your flashing a clean install flash 10.2 then flash update then reboot and setup

---------- Post added at 01:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 AM ----------

For those of you who already have safestrap installed. Here is and update zip to update safestrap. I removed the rom slots since you cannot use them. also added a reminder to flash lollipop kernel. Removed the Format data option as it did not work and caused bootloop. Removed Fix Permissions as they did not work either

Here are the directions

Download Lollipop_Safestrap_Reboot_Extended_PM_V5.zip

reboot to safestrap and flash zip. When you leave safestrap make sure and flash the BOK3 kernel which was place in a folder for easy finding. When you flashed the zip it placed the bok3 kernel in a folder on your internal and external sd card called .1OK3_Stock_KERNEL folder. Make sure you do not delete these folders

return to rom go back to the lollipop safestrap app click on the install safestrap icon from the lollipop safestrap app if screen is blank it takes a long time to grant super user access. Make sure you wait and do this. Then when you click uninstall and State shows Uninstalled If State Doesnt Change to Uninstalled Reboot and try again Once State Say Uninstalled you can then click Install. The State may not change to Installed and even if it does reboot phone and come back and it will probably show installed now, even if it didn't when you rebooted. Now Install it again without uninstalling it like you did earlier. Reboot phone. It should work. If for some reason when you click recovery reboot and it doesn't boot to safestrap and goes into recovery reboot just use Odin and flash bok3 kernel go back and install it again as mentioned above.

It may take a bit longer for recovery to pop up after screen goes black. As long as screen goes black the recovery will start
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jjdavis699:
Found a problem with that. The new reboot to safestrap option with this rom in particular (as far as I've found) does not reboot to safestrap, instead it bootloops once, then goes to stock recovery. Had to reflash BOK3 kernal using Odin. So, if anyone else still uses this rom: USE THE FAILSAFE REBOOT TO SAFESTRAP OPTION DOES NOT WORK EITHER: working with jrkruse to find out why

[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] , you might want to check this.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
When you use failsafe does it reboot to the new recovery?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jjdavis699:
It does not. Same result. Bootloops once, then goes to stock recovery. Reflashing the BOK3 kernal brings everything back to normal. IDK man, but I'd really like you to fix this if you can. At least if its on your end. If it's the ROM, then I'll go to OptimalROM or something similar. Just thought I'd put in my excuse for a bug report.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] saycbone:
I had this same issue....I ended up wiping and reflasshing the Rom and setting it up and then flashing the Extended Lollipop Safestrap and going through the steps -it worked fine. I had tried this on 2 different phones and ended up with the boot To recovery issue..reflashing seemed to do the trick.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
This seems to be a problem on bok3 bootloader. What I found is after you flashed the zip and go back to the lollipop safestrap app when you click on the install safestrap icon from the lollipop safestrap app it takes a long time to grant super user access. Make sure you wait and do this. The when you click uninstall and State shows Uninstalled you can then click Install. The State may not change to Installed but even if it does just reboot phone and come back and it will probably show installed now even if it didn't when you rebooted. Install it again without uninstall it this time. Reboot phone. It should work. If for some reason when you click recovery reboot and it doesn't boot to safestrap and goes into recovery reboot just use Odin and flash bok3 kernel go back and install it again as mentioned above.

It may take a bit longer for recovery to pop up after screen goes black. As long as screen goes black the recovery will start
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NotATreoFan:
Is there a trick to getting VVM working on the ROM? I saw the part about needing to restore a backup of the app, which I have done using Titanium. I also added ro.HorizontalVVM=true to the build.prop file. It tries to configure, but eventually fails. I do receive a text message with a bunch of jumbled characters during that time.

I was previously running OptimalROM 15-5, and I verified my backup was good by uninstall the system app, and then restoring to the ROM. It went through the configuration steps even with a data restore, but it worked.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
There is only one trick you can do is install the vvm apk like a normal apk dont open it use titanium back up and restore data to that app only. If you dont have titanium backup of data for that app you will have to install a stock rom so you can get it. Beaware this still wont give you notifications you will have to manually refresh the vvm app to get your voice mails. And this still may not work. Or you can call verizon and tell them to removed enhanced voicemail from your account and it will go back to the old way with notifications in status bar
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
If you already have this flashed and working: Lollipop_Safestrap_Reboot_Extended_PM_V4.zip Just simply flash the zip below it has option to open flashfire from lollipop safestrap app also udated the flashfire app

Lollipop_Safestrap_Reboot_Extended_PM_V5.zip

If your still using old safestrap follow this guide
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NotATreoFan:
Thanks! I had restored the system app + data and it wasn't working. I copied the APK from system, uninstalled the system copy, and rebooted. Then installed the APK manually and restored the Titanium data, popped right into my voicemail box after.

Bog5 firmware zip link is broken.

The Bog5 firmware zip link is broken. What firmware is it, because I might have it already. Also, do I need to flash a kernel after the rom? I used safestrap on ni2, wiped and flashed the rom I have all my old apps, maybe I didn't wipe? I've never used safestrap on lollipop before. Nor flashfire. I'm coming from Moar Verizon rom.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Would anyone like a safestrap that you dont have to worry about flashing the kernels when exiting?

I need some people to try this out.

Download Lollipop_Safestrap_Reboot_Extended_PM_V8.zip

reboot to safestrap and flash zip. When you leave safestrap make sure and flash the BOK3 kernel which was place in a folder for easy finding. When you flashed the zip it placed the bok3 kernel in a folder on your internal and external sd card called .1OK3_Stock_KERNEL folder. Make sure you do not delete these folders

return to rom go back to SuperSu and delete SuperSu access to Safestrap then return to the lollipop safestrap app click on the install safestrap icon from the lollipop safestrap app if screen is blank it sometimes it takes a long time to grant super user access. Make sure you wait and do this. Then when you click uninstall and State shows Uninstalled If State Doesnt Change to Uninstalled Reboot and try again Once State Say Uninstalled you can then click Install. The State may not change to Installed and even if it does reboot phone and come back and it will probably show installed now, even if it didn't when you rebooted. Now Install it again without uninstalling it like you did earlier. If when you click install again and if status shows uninstalled Reboot phone. Come back and it should show installed. It should now work. Basically just make sure you uninstall it then reinstall it twice. If for some reason when you click recovery reboot and it doesn't boot to safestrap and goes into recovery reboot just use Odin and flash bok3 kernel go back and install it again as mentioned above.

It may take a bit longer for recovery to pop up after screen goes black. As long as screen goes black the recovery will start

From now on when your done in safestrap simply reboot no more flashing Kernel. Take Note Though The process is just automatically flashing the BOk3 kernel before exiting so if you want to use a different kernel you must flash that one
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] saycbone:
Thanks jrkruse,

This worked as advertised..No problems installing and reboot From Safestrap without flashing Kernel.

Appreciated.....

Im rooted and runing Phonix Rom and happy like a litle boy with his new toy ill gonna say thanks xda community and all the people in this post im so happy
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Does anyone, other than me, get the system/apps is updating when rebooting phone? And i don't have duplicate app folders (-1,-2, etc). I get this on all versions of this ROM. Also, it takes a good 2 minutes for a message to come through and system seems kinda laggy. Any help on resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

OG5 also no work here.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] perfectswanson:
I flashed a safestrap flashable og5 kernel after installing, seems fine, but what about all those awesome features at the top of this post? How do I utilize them? Reply to this and I can give a link to that flashable kernel since this one is broken.

Almost forgot. I have a straight talk SIM card and the mms isn't working. Any suggestions?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NotATreoFan:
Check your APN settings. If this is like the ROMs for my T-Mobile devices, it probably defaults to the standard VZW APN, whereas you may need to use one special for Straight Talk.

i've downloaded this update three times to my phone from my copying from the computer every time i load it from safe strap it fails
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jhr5474:
That is very strange

What kind of SD card are you using? I have had sd cards do this. I downloaded and flashed the update with no issues at all. Did you check the md5? I downloaded directly from my pc with the link I posted and put it on my phone and flashed it. No issues at all. Sounds like an sd issue to me.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] PartyDroid:
Same sd card i did the first one from this morning this is my forth download. that was my next thought was to try a different sd card.

I am very confused here. The update should be 84 mb. This is the update zip link (same as in OP) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347804008

This must be flashed over v1.3.

EDIT. I see now you are talking about 1.3 hold on.

What you are showing is much greater than 84mb so you are downloading the wrong file.

This is correct for 1.3. I just went through the trouble of backing up and wiping my phone and redownloading what I already know works thinking maybe there was an upload error.

There is not. This issue is your card or something you are doing. I downloaded and flashed without any issues at all. So try changing sd cards or something. I am going to get back to my homework now. If you cant figure it out by the next time I have time to look later tonight I will help more. But this is not a rom or an upload or a link issue, I have verified that.

If I were you I would consider doing an Odin and starting over. This rom has been perfect since 1.3 and the update to 9.6 I have had no issues like that at all. Sometimes an Odin back to KK is needed to start over with a clean slate.

im already on the 9.6 too and running well

I'm going to make an assumption there's no HD calling lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jhr5474:
You tell us, have not tested it.

I guess my signal is good enough I am not too worried about it.

If it is something in the list on the OP and you read the OP you would know that there are some things that do not work on our phone. The list is from the international thread. Which is why it says right afterwards that its from the international thread.

It is really just something I thought I would share because I thought it was cool, I am at the point with it where if you dont like it you can always give a wack at fixing whatever it is you think you need on it. Porting roms does not pay my bills it is a hobby that I just started at. I have a family a job and school.

Truthfully, I think the bootanimation is worth flashing it even if the rom did not work. just sayin'
