I tried that, It didn't work opera browser wouldn't load neither would Google play after a while. Google play services and Instapaper kept fc'ing. It was a nightmare. I just started over again. And yet again everything seems a lot better, I'll give a real update if I can manage to get through 1 week w/o screwing this up and there aren't any issues. Thanks again

Flashed and working on V3, I now see there's a V4, Do I have to scrap everything or can I upgrade to V4 directly in flashfire? Also UPSM Manager says license expired as someone else has pointed out :(

I kinda preffered the touchwiz interface(as using APEX doesn't allow me to create customize able app grids) and I dislike using homescreens for that but.... It's not the end of the world I guess.

Apex feels kinda slugish when returning to the home screen, but I solved it by "keeping it in memory"

So far so good minus I miss touchwiz launcher for customization grids(I know you can custimize it to an extent but I like filling 4x4 in a 4x5 leaving the bottom row empty as it suits my taste better)

I noticed Knox is removed :) anyway we can force SELinux to permissive?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] CVertigo1:
You can update to V4 using flashfire, just wipe cache/dalvik after install. You'll also need to reinstall the mods you have installed, such as Viper, extra toggles, Xposed, ect. UPSM manager has to be purchased if you want to use it. As for the TouchWiz launcher, it is still in the ROM if you want to use it. Just clear your default launcher in settings and choose TouchWiz.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
I tried to use it but when I open the touchwiz launcher, it's stuck in emergency mode and I cannot leave it.

Also Can I just dirty flash right over without wiping data?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] CVertigo1:
I had this happen on a previous ROM, but this might work for you on this one. Hold the power button down and tap emergency mode in the power settings.

Dirty flash worked for me, so you should be good.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] M3ntalPurg3:
So I am "crossing fingers" here but I feel like I am finally doing good. The only thing I need to do is finally get xposed uninstalled...

My question to your reply is:

Does that mean that doing system backups is basically useless now?

If duplicate directory issues are bound to happen? Or did I misinterpret the context of "happens a lot when you restore backups or backed up apps"?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
I posted this on another forum and I basically searched and read through Arter97's Unofficial Xposed forum to find out how and what's needed to uninstall Xposed without having bootloops. It's worked for me numeroustimes. So it should work for you as well. Just don't forget to make a backup just in case...

What I've read and found out on how to remove an xposed version to either remove or update, is to

- pull the original "core-libart.jar" from the rom you're using and replace it with the one in the system setting the correct permissions

- reboot to safestrap recovery and flash "xposed-uninstaller-arter97.zip"

- wipe cache and dalvek cache

- flash your kernel that you're using in your ROM

- reboot (it'll take a while to get to home screen, so be patient)

- xposed is now Uninstalled

- reboot to recovery if you're wanting to flash a different xposed version and do the wiping steps and flash kernel as before.

Hope this helps you and others. I've done this 10+ times with no issues from V65 to V75.

No, thanks A LOT. I actually happened to scroll across another user that was having the same problem and posted (in the arter97 thread) as a reply - the exact link to your post that seemed to be helpful...haven't done it yet myself but...just trying to help anyone I can.

Gonna try it myself but tonight. I'll let you know if successful. I'm sure it will be [emoji6] [emoji106]

Going from V3 to V4, Hoping al goes well, Gonna flashfire seeing it's so far never failed me, although I"could" try safestrap

I flashed that V6 and then wiped cache/Dalvik...nothing changed. Do I have to flash extra toggles again and THEN flash Flashlight*V6?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] GeTex:
Flashed the ROm and shortly after the thing looked like it was in a bootloop, got the verizon sound with no boot ani, turns out boot ani freaked out and decided to start boot animation while i was using the phone. lol? Works fine after that first boot. Now Running V4! But I'm a tad upset, I wanna remove amazon music, audible, verizon cloud, my verizon, verizon tones, es explorer, peel smart remote, and busybox free(I have pro) but everytime i remove these apps(except es explorer, it won't remove nomatter what i do) they reinstall at boot... Why can't I remove them, sure I can freeze but I want to remove!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Just flash the extra toggles now

The apps probably updated did you uninstall the updates before you deleted them out of the system folders. Then if there is multiple files in the data/app folder delete them

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 PM ----------

I did a system backup last night w/ min. Apps and Data, so naturally I had to uninstall about 40 of my common apps to reduce backup size.

I did all of this to follow al50's directions for uninstalling Xposed.

When I returned to my system after a Dalvik/Cache wipe, restored all of my apps, everything seems ok except for PocketBook pdf reader keeps force closing. All of my apps were fresh installed and backed up with V4 before I restored them...

I am wondering if I did another Dalvik wipe after wiping data completely for said app and reloading I wouldn't have that problem anymore? I'm not a developer so I don't know the details. (I can't wait to upgrade to the Google Nexus 6P!) When things will be do mich simpler

Removed the apps via FX ROOT inside data/app and also system/priv-app, they now are removed for good. Guess I couldn't remove them via package manager lol. Thanks a ton!. Next step Any chance anyone knows how to or a module to reverse the menu/app switcher button? I noticed theres a module for phones with a menu button(like the s3) to make it into the S5's app switcher button? Can I do the reverse???

The Xposed module "GravityBox" has the ability to change the functions of all the buttons, though I am unsure if it works in Lollipop.

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 AM ----------

Thank you for the quick reply. I was not able to get the forum to load for a couple days to report back.

Unfortunately, this did not resolve my issue. I have discovered that the issue also occurs with Optimal and MOAR Lollipop ROMs.

I have tried flashing the BOK3 firmware only as suggested. I later tried flashing a couple different modems. I am stumped.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] CVertigo1:
Can you give me some more detail? Is it related to 4G only, or cellular reception as well? You are using Verizon, right?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] M3ntalPurg3:
Does this new SS_EXTENDED_V8 affect compatibility of a system backup done via the previous version SS_EXTENDED PM Recovery? I know that before I had an issue with trying to do a system restore...might have been CWM to TWRP? Just want to be sure...

The new Safestrap is the same as the old one, just a few things were removed, and auto-flashing the kernel was implemented. Everything else is the same.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] JohnK71:
Here are the directions

Download Lollipop_Safestrap_Reboot_Extended_PM_V4.zip

Why does every time I try to download this from all your links it goes to a dead page?

Nevermind, got it to download! Thanks.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] painiac:
Yes, I am on Verizon (actually, PagePlus on Verizon's network). I am unsure how much my cell reception is actually affected, but it typically shows only one bar after flashing a Lollipop ROM, and 4g never lights up

Gravity box worked But I'm using Wanam and would like to strip the module from gravity box just in fear of conflict, any idea? I've seen others do it
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] musterion1973:
1) WIPE EVERYTHING! How do I do this"

2) Flash No_BS ROM ..... What do I use to do this?

3) Flash Extra toggles.....same question as 2

4) Flash No_Bootloader_Rooting_Tools_For_S5_Lollipop_V3.zip.......okay I will assume that what ever I use to do number one will do the rest of the 7 steps. unless I am wrong.

5) Flash xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon.zip

6) Flash Viper Policy

7) Flash Viper4Android

8) Flash BOK3 Firmware without bootloader

9) After first boot, open up Viper4Android and install the driver. Note: Sometimes it takes 2-3 times before the driver will install.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dhollar:
5Way_Safestrap_Reboot_PM Link is dead.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] painiac:
While there is a lot of overlap in capabilities, you may not even run into any conflicts because both Wanam and GravityBox functions need to be explicitly enabled. However, I believe the source code is on github.com/GravityBox, if you want to try to yank out some code to build your own module.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
These also contain the new safestrap recovery so after you flash the zip make sure to open the safestrap intaller and uninstall safestrap then reinstall it

Excellent rom, thanks so much for the hard work!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] painiac:
All of us really appreciate your continued efforts to make our phones better.

Have you considered starting a "Safestrap for Lollipop" thread, with continuously up-to-date links and brief explanations of these little mods? (For instance, one might easily miss that the reboot menu mod can only be flashed on BOK3)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] cubsrule17:
Anyone know why my notifications aren't showing up on the lockscreen? I have show all content, and text messages nor gmail show up. I do get the LED blink.

Thoughts?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] CVertigo1:
I haven't heard any issues about this before. By chance are you using any Xposed modules? Sometimes they modify the lockscreen, so one of them may be disabling notifications.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] cubsrule1701:
I don't have it installed. I did install all the files from the first post though...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] CVertigo1:
Did you wipe data when you flashed?

I did. I wiped everything. I guess I could try flashing again

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Note2mk:
Hi, recently rooted my phone and tryimg to backup everything before i install a rom but when trying to back up the IMEI/NVRAM MTK droid tools gives me the errors

"ERROR : --- TotalBytesPerChunk Not Found. Set default Page/Spare=2048/64 !!! --- Unknown ROM structure, backup NOT possible! "

I've tried searching for solutions which have suggested

* Install Busybox- tried but seen no change.

* Download MTK droid tools from a different source- tried this too

* Slot in an SD card with sufficient space into the phone- i have enough space on my sd

* When prompted for Super User permissions on the phone and PC, select Ok or Grant - done.

I want to backup as much as possible before installing a new rom but not sure how to get by this issue/error. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Note2mk:
Any suggestions thanks? Currently I understand the error unknown rom structure occurs because the phone isnt a mtk phone of which it is and ive tried downloading mtk droid tools from a different source with the same errors occuring.

When i rooted my phone I used a method that attempted to install cwm but when I try to boot into it the samsung logo just jumps around the screen. Would this have anything to do with the errors?

Sorry for the amount of questions.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yaro666:
the most important is EFS backup, which can be done with apk from play store. Other things you can backup with titanium backup, then flash custom recovery i.e. TWRP and do full backup in recovery. That's all you need. everything else you can restore with stock rom
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Note2mk:
Thanks for your reply. I just backed up the EFS using EFS professional using a tutorial I read on here. Also used titanium backup aswell. What method would you recommend flashing TWRP or CWM? Would flashing any of those interfere with the currently attempted installation of CWM that wont boot?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yaro666:
flash TWRP for your model i.e. N7100, N7105, etc. using Odin 3.10.7. Do not repartition and your phone would be ok. There are guides and even movies on youtube how to use Odin

I'm running phoenix rom and recently noticed the battery draining a lot faster and intermittent slow downs to the point of being non responsive.

I then started getting notifications of software that is risky, such as lucky patcher etc.

As I was looking through my list of installed apps tonight to see if there was something I'd inadvertently installed, I noticed the Samsung security software had been pushed down to my device without my interaction!?

Now phoenix is totally knox free, so I'm not really sure how it got on my device. The minute I removed it with TB my device charged quicker, lasted longer and is MUCH faster.

Is this just bad luck, or have others found this?

[XDA Assist] s4r0m:
I configured my pc to be remotely controlled using the tablet, using rdp. The software im using is parallels. Also, tried the ms remote desktop app. Both works wonders over lan. But i want to access my pc when im outside, through internet.

I know there are apps like teamviewer and splashtop. But they require me to install a server app in the pc. Paralells dont. So i configured a no-ip host, port forwarding, ddns in my router and firewall in my pc, to accept incoming remote desktop connections through internet. But it seems the only way to do it in android is by installing a server app in the pc. Which i think is useless because i already have everything configured to do it without extra software and i dont want to create a teamviewer account.

Any ideas or suggestions?
