foreverloco! Glad to see you here for the 920T. I've loved following your work across the various Notes and with the Tweaked Roms. Just picked my phone up yesterday, of course I flashed your ROM. Congrats on having a ROM by the way!

Maybe another user can help me. I got one question about the kernel, since the ROM doesn't come with one, is there any way to run a stock COI5 kernel besides flashing a stock COI5 rom before this one? That's what I have now, but I'd like to use Arters kernel. If it presents problems, I'd like to switch back without wiping, flashing 2 ROM's, and setting up again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Hey man, glad to see you around.

You actually can't use a unmodified stock kernel unless you're on pure odex stock. With the Note 5 the kernels need to be modified for root. You should just go with one of arters kernel. I'm currently on 6.0 and haven't ran into any sort of problem, but I was also running 4.2 for the longest which was rock solid too. You can always flash between kernels if you want to try different ones, but just remember that there are a few kernels out there that cause random reboots and such.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Update!

10/13 More themes!

Added sapphire and teal themes

Minor changes to the other themes.

Welcome brotha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] HNIC215:
Does anyone know if this ROM would work on the N920i?

I'd love to try it but I'm not sure how to go about it being that my model is slightly different. I have seen on another thread of an N920i user successfully installing a N920T ROM on their N920i.

Sorry, if this question irritates anyone here, I honestly just want to try this ROM. I used to use the theme back on my Note 4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Sry buddy not sure maybe Loco will know better but i dont see why not just flash the proper arters kernel for your variant and flash the rom. Have a back up just in case and youll be fine. You wont brick your phone if thats worrying you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] HNIC215:
Cool, thanks. Yea that's what I was thinking of doing but I wanted to get some sort of reassurance from someone knowledgeable.

Like you said, I was worried about bricking my phone.

I'll try it out and see what happens.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bjc112:
Can't decide if I like grayish blue better or sapphire!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigmase23:
Love them both, but I always end up back on grayish blue!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bjc112:
Pretty hard to brick a Samsung now a days
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
I cant get away from sapphire lol it matches the phone so nice and its just dark enough...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] HNIC215:
Lol, maybe but when a device costs $700+ it's better to be safe than sorry

It worked by the way, on my N920i, if anyone else is curious...

I just flashed the kernel for my variant after installing the ROM and everything seems to be running fine so far. :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Cool man glad it works for you. You'll find that this rom is very very stable, smooth and absolutely no force closes or issues of any kind. To me it feels like a stock rom that you can use as a daily driver, with just enough mods to make it interesting and convenient. Then the themes...pretty much all the roms for our N5 are created by good devs and ive had the urge to try them, but i just cant seem to leave this damn rom it just feels so smooth, fast, stable, and the battery life combined with arters kernel has been out of this world for me. Good luck buddy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] HNIC215:
Thanks buddy, I'm excited to try all the ROM's for the T-Mobile Note 5. International forum only has Dr. Ketan's ROM.

Which is great by the way but you know how it is when you root. You want to try everything.

This ROM is excellent so far, loving the themes!

Thanks to the dev as well, great work... Salute!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
I know unfortunately i tried this one first and haven't left. .lol..i think ketans is on h6 base, wasn't updated to i5 last i looked not that it matters much anyway just a heads up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] HNIC215:
Lol, I don't blame you. This ROM is very smooth and stable.

International Variant (N920i) is on H6 base - that's the latest one - not I5, that's probably why.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Alcor10:
Any way to change the contrast between my messages and the senders? I LOVE the Teal theme, but it's sometimes hard for me to tell the difference. But wow, talk about a happy camper, you're ROM is THE BEST so far! (:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Yea your right but i think he also made a version based on tmo...not positive tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] HNIC215:
Yup, that's true. Completely forgot about that.

I was using the international one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Can you take a screen shot and post it...change your bubbles for now if thats what your talking about.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] farfromovin:
Anybody able to use Android pay successfully here?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
I'll make the sending bubbles a little darker in the next update.

Can't use android pay with root.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Gonna say this once. I've already seen somebody out there with a rom posting screen shots of a theme they are going to be releasing and it looks extremely close to my teal and if I find out that you have in anyway kanged my work, I will report you and fight to get you banned!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] farfromovin:
Anyway to get rid of 6th gear swipe? Like freeze it or deactivate it or uninstall it? I like to use the stock flipboard like feature instead of 6th gear.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
First install nova launcher from the store. You don't have to use it, you just want it for its activities feature so it shows up in 6thgears' custom shortcut list.

Reset swipe if you've set something by using swipe reset in the app drawer.

Swipe to left and choose set custom shortcut.

Select activities from the list.

Scroll down and tap briefing.

Then select the first option flipboard.boxer.gui.LaunchActivities.

Done.

Did Samsung remove finger Air View for the Note 5?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Yep. Gotta use the pen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Alcor10:
I have it running for me, but then again, I dirty flashed it over my stock so I never reset Android Pay. So far that's worked for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] roger1955:
So, have you actually use android pay to make ka purchase? Just asking.....

roger1955
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] guaneet:
For android pay I think you can temporarily disable supersu through the app, set up android pay, and then enable supersu through the same place you disabled it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] emulatorx:
hey guys, just wanted some opinion of users of the rom. It seems like a solid rom. I'm on darthstalker v2 atm, and was wondering without making it a competition between the two, if anyone here has tried both and which they prefer or are they pretty much similar? thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Update!

10/15 R2.5

Unrestricted tethering (I know I said I wasn't gonna add it, but [MENTION=5108383]sshafranko[/MENTION] talked me into it LOL)

Move keyboard cursor with volume keys. (Up is right and down is left) thanks [MENTION=6689518]dwithereIl[/MENTION]

Developer options enabled by default

Few miscellaneous tweaks

Themes updated for 2.5

Touched up a few things in the themes

Make sure that you download the updated themes and undo zip because the old ones will break things.

Clean flash is highly recommended!

Sooner or later I imagine someone Kang Loco!!, [emoji14]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Jhfreeze:
I find myself always flashing back to Loco's rom...its solid, fast, everything works flawless, plus the themes are incredible and this rom is always the starting point for my own tweaks, mods, and experiments. You can't go wrong with loco's latest update, your favorite color theme he's made, and one of arter's kernels running beneath the hood:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] donharden2002:
I love you guys man, lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
OK. Let's all keep it relaxed in here.

Bickering just causes mods to interfere.

As for my warning, it had to do with my themes and it would be pretty obvious if somebody in our note 5 section started copying them. So, let's not jump to conclusions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Honstly i ran darth on my N4 i think and N3 for a while and i got nothing bad at all to say about it. Always worked great for me and his kernels always worked great for me too. Darth has more extra features i beleive, and if your running it now you prob know if theres any issues. Ive seen a couple people complain about problems with mms going through, seen some people post that they've always had problems with Tmo and/or the stock messaging not working right, truthfully i love the stock messaging especially with proper mods and locos themes and i never ever had an issue that i can remember sending or receiving anything. I use mostly stock everything including gallery, browser, mms, keyboard, etc...because i love the integration of it all and it all works great together imo...i also try to stay away from having extra third party apps to do things that can be done with native apps for a couple reasons: more apps = more ram, more storage space, more chance of things not agreeing with each other resulting in slow downs, errors, and more battery drain, and chance of rouge apps. I trust that Samsungs apps, built specific for the phone will most of the time work better then a universaly built texting, calling, whatever app will. Maybe not true in all cases but most imo.

So what the hell was i talking about? Ohh yea dude simply put heres my opinion of this rom.....

Its very close to stock the way it was meant to be, with some mods to make your daily use simpler, more efficient, maybe even fun, no errors, no mistakes, no force closes, everything, everything, everything and i stress everything is functional, smooth as a rom can be without kernel involved, fast maybe even faster then stock, Themes out the wazul i think it is, to satisfy "most" people, and a friggin top notch guy and dev who will help you with anything. Not sure what else you need.

Now of course this is not for everyone. I like simple, stockish, error free, smooth and i love themes. Some people like features from their refrigirators, microwaves, their hot cousins underwear (did i just say that) added to the rom and thats cool too, but not for me. I think the more crap u add the higher chance of things not working properly and things like battery drain come into play.

So ask your self: am i an alcoholic? Haha just kidding, seriously what Do you want? I want this and i aint goin anywhere not even for a GD minute....Good nite mofos

I could at Panera the other day, I mean, unless something changed that I don't know about, yeah you can make payments. It's the fix right now. You set up the phone then android pay, then root (or root, disable supersu in the App and Android Pay) then flash rom. I haven't had any issues at all. Dirty flashing over stock seems to be okay and I haven't seen any glitches or problems. (:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pezlomd:
Today's battery life is looking great! The phone slept for 4 and a half hours and was still on 100% I have no idea how. Using latest rom and arter kernel 6.0. Rom is pretty much untouched did a few tweaks in permissions manager with location on some apps. Great work.

Got 2.5 running and the new teal theme, the contrast is just what the doctor ordered. Thank you a bunch man!! I am having zero regrets with this here Note 5 and this here rom. I'm excited to see where it goes! (:

Is there a way to get rid of the alarm icon? If I have to go edit crap I will, I don't mind, I just know there was ano option in some roms back on my note 4, anyhow. Thank you again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] mcdavid:
there is an option in Wanam Xposed to do it.

NEVER MIND -- that isn't working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Flash the zip attached and it'll remove the alarm icon. It's nothing special, all I did was make the icon transparent and shrunk it down to 1x1, so it'll look like nothings there. It's in a vrtheme zip so it won't touch anything else.

If you want to restore it you can just reflash the theme.

Anyone have issues with wallpaperpicker crashing when multi selecting lockscreen wallpaper? It's supposed to switch between multiples if selected. Tried it with and without themes, cache/data cleared on app, manually moved all wallpaper apk's from another version, (and searched the thread). Also did a nandroid back to 2.1 and it happened there too. Not a big deal just trying to solve it.

Hey guys I love this rom: great battery life, stability everything all in one package. I just have a quick question is there any way to get rid of the sound toggles on the power buttons? Also under status bar with potato clock notification gets kind of iffy, as shown on screenshot. (Not sure if it's potato clock issue) Thoughts?

- great ROM :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Sorry, but the sound toggles are enabled through the framework. As for the clock, are you on the newest update? That issue for the center clock was fixed a couple of updates back. The clock moves up with the rest of the status bar when notifications show. You can see in my screens.

Ending result of some of the best battery I've had with this phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Your cell standby seems a little high...do you use wifi calling a lot? Are you using arters kernel 5.0? Looks good tho
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Also, I don't if you're using xposed or not, but make sure you're not using a module for the clock since it might overwrite the potato clock and the fix I added.

Nice. I'm averaging about the same. 4.5 hrs to 5 hrs of screen time with my normal use.

The cell standby usually gets high but that's when you use WiFi calling a lot. I've had mine reach up to 48% but doesn't affect my battery. When I leave WiFi calling off it stays at around 2 - 3%.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Alcor10:
Ah yeah, I don't use xposed for a couple reasons, but thank you for the effort! (:

Does anyone know of a non-non-xposed way to add volume steps. I know there's "ro.config.vc_call_steps=20" for in call volume (assuming that works?

1080p60 dropdown option in youtube app gone

I was using Darthstalker rom before this rom ( which by the way I LOVE). I'm pretty happy I made the change to foreverloco's rom, no hiccups here. The only thing I wanted to ask about is whats up with youtube missing the 1080p60 option. I know for a fact its not the rom's fault since this was happening to me with darthstalkers rom as well but somehow it magically appeared one day but I can't figure out what I did. I even tested different note 5's at stores, 1 of them had the option and the other didn't, so even with an official non-rooted phone it was happening. I initially thought that clearing data and cache for the app would fix it, but this time I can't figure out how to get it back. I am definitely pulling up 60fps videos but all i see are regular 720 and 1080p options, NOT 720p60 or 1080p60.

Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] sshafranko:
Hell yea bro...i veen begging Loco to do it and he finally got it...one of my fave features i used to use Gravity Box for this feature only. My fingers are too dam fat to slide across the screen and try to move that cursor...

Awesome news folks...Loco got Viper working and he made a flashable zip that puts it all together. All u gotta do is install driver and reboot. .Im totally psyched right now...need Viper for my Bluetooth Circle and Level headphones. Volume is way too low and sound quality sucks. WAY TO GO LOCO ???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] bjc112:

Cool man. Loco had Cell Standby high also with one of the kernel versions but there didnt seem to be any noticable negative effect on battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] foreverloco:
Yea, I'm not sure with that. The video has to support 60fps too, but none of the videos I've watched have had the quality option..
