[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
New Version 5.5 based on CPIH is available for Download

I continuously get requests to include the new Project Grace Note 7 apps but as I stated already quite often, I’m not really interested in modding. I know there are several threads where devs ported the apps from 64bit to 32bit in order to get them running on 32bit devices like the S5 but I don’t know any flashable package which provides a complete set of apps which are running stable out of the box. If this would be available I would consider to include it to the rom as I just have to add the package instead of collecting apps from different threads, modifying and maintaining them.

Nevertheless, @or1m created a first version of such a flashable package for the xXx No Limits rom containing a selection of Grace UX apps which you can find here.

As there are several updates and addons I implemented to the my Rom and as it take some more time until we get a Samsung rom update containing the new Oct. security updates I prepared xXx No Limits v5.5 for you.

What’s new in 5.5 vs. 5.4:

New G900F Rom base CPIH

Change list 8193525

Unchanged Android Security Patch Level – Sept. 1, 2016

New Bootloader & Modem Combi

CPIH Bootloader

CPIA Modem

· Added suhide v0.54 by @chainfire to get Safety Net or Pokemon Go etc. working with root

o Set root.supersu=2 in xXx.options.prop to get it

o Also added unofficial suhide GUI app from Google Play by @loserskater to easier manage the blacklist package UIDs. You find that in app drawer.

o Please Note:

§ As xposed by wanam is not compatible with suhide, I added Magisk Systemless Xposed framework by @topjohnwu which will automatically installed when you set xposed=1 or 2 in xXx.options.prop

§ suhide have experimental status for chainfire and may cause unwanted issues. He has briefly tested suhide + systemless xposed and experienced performance issues for example.

§ It’s also new and experimental to me. I don’t use Pokemon Go or any other Safety Net based app. A clean installation worked fine for me. The suhide GUI app as well as the systemless xposed worked fine for me but I didn’t make a real world test with any Safety Net based app. So I’m curious to hear back from your experiences.

§ Here you find plenty of detailed information about suhide

G900W8 stock firmware was not updated yet but got the xXx 5.5 rom update as well for all addons and updates described above.

Special Notes:

· Rooting option is enabled by default but flashing this Rom with root enabled will trip Knox so you will end up with in Knox 0x1.

· Some Tweaks are requiring the rom to be deodexed. Therefore installing xXx Tweaks will also trigger rom deodexing no matter what.

· Version 5.5 can be dirty flashed over at least all 4.x versions although selecting the suhide option might need a clean install. All earlier Versions especially Lollipop version like v1.6 or older should definitely be clean installed.

o Although it helps to make a clean install from time to time to get rid of some weird issues. Read user experience here

o Important Note for G900W8 users: v5.5 is based on latest G900W8VLS1DPF3. If you are coming from v5.0 (or lower) G900W8VLU1DPD3 you most probably will experience errors from Google Partner Setup etc. You could try to wipe data of the respective app to fix this but best you can do is a clean install.

· Please make sure to provide root permission to the SystemUpdateService Disabler when asked

· If anybody is missing his desired CSC please provide me with information which specific stock rom includes that.

Downloads

Sorry for the delay, I tried several times now to upload the Roms but after 4 times uploading 3GB I gave up and uploaded the Roms to Mega as a temporary solution now.
