Anybody know when a new TAR file will come out for version G900PVPS3CPE2? I'm a rooting newbie, but I assume I can't use kltespr for the new version...
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] andyistic:
So I updated to Marshmallow (Android 6), then I tried using the Chainfire Autoroot smg900p using Odin/DownloadMode, but RootChecker and Titanium both say the device is not rooted.

How to fix?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Cooljb:
It's out:

i still have yet to find a solid reason to go to 6.0 from 5.1 (MOAR 7.0 more specifically). The only thing id like to try out is the doze mode. Thats about it
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] NewShockerGuy:
And doing exactly that will give root access correct?

Does one need to then load a custom recovery or is this included as well?

Thanks,

Hi. What are the differences and improvements of PE2 ROM comparing to PCA ROM?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Youdoofus:
No idea actually. I just flashed a 6.0.1 ROM that my buddy compiled from source code and I'm not blown away by mm yet. I was running moar 7.0 tho, so its not like I was coming from a featureless turd lol
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Don CaLix:
Help

I have a Galaxy S5 and wanted to update it to MM but based on "About Device" in the Settings menu it is a G900F. But when I boot to download mode, Odin says it is a G900P. How can I update to MM? Thanks
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Ahmad77888:
it seems that your phone is a refurbished one, just as that of mine :(,

the only way is to flash an official g900P rom, and then consider your phone as g900P and forget about g900F.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Youdoofus:
If Odin says its a g900p, I'd go with that as you can flash whatever g900? ROM you want on any g900 phone. Go with the g900p tar
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] aish8la:
After Flashing g900pvpu3cpg1 I can,t get 4g. when I go to change network mode the only options shown are cdma, lte/cdma, gsm umts & automatic from which non except automatic works for me. When I select something other than automatic phone restarts and I get no network. I searched and found that this maybe because the firmware is not supported by my region. Can I Get the name of a firmware that would support 4G in my region. I am in Maldives.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] FettyWap:
To the poster above, you need to set the correct APN

For the service, all gs5 updates have been breaking APN if they are done via full restore in odin. That could also lead to battery drain. it set your correct apn. Navigate to settings - more networks - mobile networks - access point names.....

If you do not know your correct apn settings call your mobile network provider

I used frequencysearch and found out this information for you

Ooredoo (Maldives) uses 1 GSM band, 1 UMTS band, and 1 LTE band.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] aish8la:
Thnx for replying.

But previously when I was on lollipop I used the same apn settings and I could get 4g. Also the network mode options included 4g, Now It shows LTE/CDMA which when selected shows that I have no network connection whatsoever not even nomal calling can be used.

Also the network operators option is disabled
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] FettyWap:
Go to Access point names and select the appropriate one, network operators is ok to be in accessible. Click on Access Point Names (aka apn) and click on the correct apn also screen shot your choices if possible
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] aish8la:
Could the reason For my issue Be that my phone is not activated.

Are there any other choices? Can you scroll down further there should be a whole list
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] mordantly:
PCA is garbage! Sammy didn't fix the features that were removed aside from exSD mounting. I only odined in hopes of xposed actually working. What was lost was hotspot, enabled but no device gets internet connection. No mobile data toggle so you have to dig through settings and uncheck then it says blah blah are you sure? Of course no kernels available. Others also but I forgot. What I will do is go back to OK4 then MOAR 7 and update modem to PCA. I loved MOAR since NE5 and always come back since nothing else compares.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] aish8la:
Nope. These are all there are.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] FettyWap:
What is your service provider at this point I would like to help you create a custom apn for that specific provider also have you tried selecting the one that says data
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] aish8la:
The one that says data and ooredoo are both apn I made myself to see if I could fix this problem. My sim is ooredoo - maldives.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] doctorman:
been a while and few updates since PCA ROM

and yet no ROM was made for S5 Sprint with the latest Sam ROM

what is going on? did everyone move on? the android 6 has a better battery life and is worth the shot, the MOAR seams a dead end development.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jboyed1999:
I knew the did on the S7 but I haven't seen anything for the S5 since the S6 didn't have a sd card slot the S5 would be the last one with one. I saw an article about how to trick the S7 into doing it but idk if it will work on the S5. If i find it again I will post the link.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Cubit33:
Thanks, yeah I wonder if that same hack would work on our S5.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djxn40:
Has anyone taken the update and tried to flash recovery?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] scubamark:
For the adoptable storage I was able to follow the instructions at the following link.

http://www.modaco.com/news/android/...e-adoptable-storage-on-your-s7-s7-edge-r1632/

My storage now lists some of the SD card as device storage as I split my SD in half.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jboyed1999:
Thanks! I will definitely try this.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Starfox:
SuperSU 2.71 works fine, you'll need to flash TWRP 3.0.2 w/o Auto-reboot, then directly force it into recovery by holding down Power+Volume Up+Home.

TWRP 3.0.2-1 didn't seem to like my SD card, so I had to copy the zips (SuperSU+AdAway systemless) into Internal Storage prior to doing that though.

Also, verified Android Pay works on systemless root+fingerprint lockscreen.

Need help,I have restored the OK4 stock from odin,But my phone still shows the device status custom,and I can not update my phone.....
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chippinganimal:
Try going into the stock recovery and doing a factor reset

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

Coudl someone that has updated to Marshmallow upload the OTA update to google drive or onedrive or any file sharing site so that I (or some other dev if they are fast enough) can make a odin flashable tar file for people on Custom roms or have their knox counter tripped?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] pyrochance:
i would gladly, but idk where to find it. do i need read write access to the root/cache folder? when i lookin there i dont see anything.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chippinganimal:
according to this thread you need root access to view the files. They should be located in the cache/fota_dn folder. So anyone who has done the systemless root method on MM should be able to do this.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Starfox:
Except the OTA won't download if you have Device Status: Custom...

I think the easiest(?) way would be to get a stock OK4, let it download, then flash a custom recovery through Odin, boot and save OTA, then let it reboot hopefully have it restore original recovery and be able to upgrade. Worst case scenario you will need to reflash stock afterwards, and probably re-download the OTA.

-- Starfox
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] pyrochance:
Darn, i bricked my last phone, and this is a replacement device. i haven't rooted it yet. i was hoping i could find a way to keep knox 0x0 .

i thought that if i updated to MM that the cache of the zip would be wiped?

hence i was trying to pull the zip out prior to updating.

can you link the systemless root method? im not readily finding it when searching the gs5 thread. is it in a different thread?

thanks
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chippinganimal:
There isnt really instructions documented out but heres how you root on MM:

1. flash the twrp image found here via Odin while your phone is in download mode.

2. Boot into recovery and flash the super su systemless root found here in twrp and then reboot into android and you should be rooted!

Then you can go into the cache folder using a root browser and find the OTA update there. Let me know if there are any problems or confusions, as I will be happy to help!

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:31 PM ----------

Yeah Since I am on CM13 Im just gonna flash the full stock OK4 and do the update through there.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Starfox:
http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu

You are going to end up tripping Knox one way or another. Unless you had a already-rooted device that somehow was able to keep Knox 0x0, and apply a patched tarball that is de-knoxed/rooted through Odin, rooting will trip it. I even tripped Knox applying a stock image because somehow it barfed on me and I had to reboot, tripping Knox then.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djxn40:
Just upgraded to 6.0.1 twrp cannot see my ext sdcard. No idea what to do? I am on the latest twrp also

Am i the only one with this problem?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chippinganimal:
I think I remember reading somewhere about how marshmallow does some weird stuff with the formatting of SD cards. If I remember correctly it was because of something to do with adoptable storage being on and having its own proprietary format so the internal and external cards could communicate fast enough to each other to make the feature worthwhile. And twrp cant see it because of that.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djxn40:
What should i do?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chippinganimal:
Did you enable adoptable storage? if you did try disabling it. Anyway, I tried flashing the OK4 tar file and while it did fash successfully, it took forever to boot so I pulled the battery, put it back in, and booted into recovery and did a factory reset and my phone booted fast after that. But now it will not let me check for updates because my device status is still custom for some unknown reason. Im pretty sure this is not supposed to happen, even though I tripped knox.

---------- Post added at 09:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

But what I can do is flash the update through recovery from external storage, i just need another means of downloading the update itself.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djxn40:
I had to flash og1
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] chippinganimal:
Oh really?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Starfox:
Try flashing stock over again, from a full power off state. Second slot, the stock tar file. First boot is always known to be problematic.

As for TWRP, it seems to be a known issue. I had the same issue w/SD cards right after the upgrade.

-- Starfox
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] daniel3x:
For people with custom status problem

Flash the TWRP recovery in odin

After that enter in recovery mode and format system, data, cache, dalvik cache, sdcards.

Then put the phone into download mode, and flash with odin the last stock rom (OK4) but make sure you don't have selected the "reboot" option in odin

After you got your phone flashed, take the battery out put it again and enter in recovery mode, choose "wipe data/factory reset"

Then put your phone in download mode and flash again the stock rom (OK4) this time with the "reboot" option selected

After you flashed your phone the first boot takes some minutes , just be patient.

After this you should have your phone complety clean with no trash left over and your status fixed.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] edlee:
Can you still edit the apn using the msl on stock rooted, because i lost the ability on sprint s6 when it got updated to 6.0.1
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Cooljb:
Band 41

I got the marshmallow update today and also updated my PRL from 55051 to 55052. Ever since, I'm not getting any Band 41 any more. At my house I was pretty much always on Band 41 before since there is a tower like 2 blocks from my house. I have not seen my phone switch to Band 41 once since these updates. Not sure if it's just coincidence, or if one of these updates fubared something.

Also not thrilled they locked out the APN editing like they did on the S6 and S7. My already edited APN settings stuck after the update so I still have my hotspot for now. Sprint does occasionally push profile updates, so I will probably lose my hotspot edit at some point. Guess I will try SuperSU 2.71 systemless root when that happens.

Other than that it seems to run pretty well. No major issues so far. Also hate the sprint boot logo, WTF? :confused: Like the look and feel of it. As long as I can somehow keep my hotspot down the road I'll be happy.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] djxn40:
Can you tell me if you can access your external sdcard with twrp?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] scopimeraglobosa:
I just flash twrp-3.0.2-1-klte.img.tar through odin and success. But when I boot to recovery, it can't access to twrp.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] highspeedfelon:
By stock recovery Yes its how I did it. Just put on SD card and boot into recovery and select "update from external storage" then select the update.zip. I think it still checks to see if your system is modified though so you may need to be back on stock.

I don't have TWRP installed yet, but I saw another post where someone was having trouble getting TWRP to recognize the sd card. However the phone itself is doing some funky stuff with regard to the sd card. When I boot up I get the little sd card icon in the notification bar asking me if I want to import media from sd card to phone. Also after booting up, my apps that are installed on my sd card are grayed out initially. They eventually come back and work fine, but it's still strange.

Wait for someone to create a stock rooted zip from this file if you are on NK4

and follow the directions from this post

http://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s5/general/updated-to-rooted-ok4-keeping-knox-t3282268

you'll need to use flash fire to upgrade from NK4 to OA6, and from there you can use flash fire to update to OK4 and keep Root. i've used this proccess before.

once you are on stock rooted OK4, i would recomend waiting until there is a stock rooted 6.0 zip available and upgrade again with Flashfire.

EDIT:

sorry i didnt think to ask if you were trying to keep Knox 0x0, only use this method if that is your intention.

if knox is tripped, just odin ok4, download the update, flash the recovery per the OP's instructions.
