does anybody flash this with Flashfire and if so does it wipe the phone and internal sdcard?

I want to dirty flash without wipe coming from stock rooted Nova 5.01 rom from TKKG1994
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Tkkg1994:
Not possible from LP to MM is such a big step, without fullwipe impossible sorry
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] KillerbeeNL:
Okay , how to keep the data om internal sdcard (like Whatsapp SMemo photos) ?

Will a wipe from CWM leave the data on sdcard?

thanks

This rom is great. However I can't get tethering to work. I create a mobile hotspot. Connect to it using wifi. It's connected and I can internet on my phone. However I can't internet on my laptop using the hotspot on my phone. It shows connected but it's just not working. Tried usb tethering to. Same result. No internet.

Is there some hidden setting I need to change? PLease help. Wifi thetering is important to me.

Tethering worked fine on Lollipop so I don't think it's a provider issue (Vodafone Netherlands)

Edit:

I just found it what's causing it. There is a way to enable tethering by entering this command in a (su) terminal: settings put global tether_dun_required 0

I noticed it has a value of 1 when I start (settings get global_tether_dun_required)

I am able to put it to zero using settings put global__tether_dun_required 0

however it doesn't survive a reboot.

I'm not sure it's related to this rom. But is there a way to make the 0 permanent and make it survive a reboot?

Edit 2:

It's working. Probably not caused by this rom but by Vodafone.

I fixed tethering doing the following:

I went to settings -> More networks -> Mobile networks ->Acces Point Names -> Vodafone NL - APN type

Then I added dun to the string. So now it reads: default,supl,mms,dun

It works great now!

Just reporting back on the GPS problem I have. Okay, with 4G off the problem appears to be worst. So I turned 4G back on tried using GPS Widget by pixelclash and that seems to work for this phone. Downside is you need to remember to turn it off when done or use the automatic shutdown setting. There is a google thread about this issue however I seem to have lost the link. Google has known about this problem for over a year and hasn't done anything to fix it, grr.

Love this ROM! I came from Lollipop, which I was so unhappy with because it was way too slow to respond to anything I did. with Android M, it's back in order.. thank you!

Now i'm doing my duty to share with those who have problems getting root for your app, even though this ROM is already pre-rooted. The reason behind it is NOT Android M, but it's because of the latest version of Super SU. (2.74). the Latest version going forward, no longer supports the old method of detecting root (coined by chainfire as "Compatibility Mode"), and thus some apps like Secure Settings, which still use the old method of detecting root, will not be able to detect root anymore.

The solution is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66140836&postcount=5493

I've tried the solution,and it works well. I've got my secure Settings to work again.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] KillerbeeNL:
one thing is keeping me away from this or any other MM rom.

When I have changed the bootloader is it still posible to go back to Lollipop?

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] putti71:
I guess, since not everybody has the gps problem on LTE, it must have something to do with the bandwidth of the mobile signal of your provider. I am from germany and am on O2/BASE and there everything works

is it possible to remove these changes? as i think these should be toggled with app not in base rom.

"SFinder from Statusbar removed

-Airplane Mode pop-up removed

-Cover warning removed

-Unplug your charger wont wake up your display anymore"
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Cissiboy:
Who in his sane mind would want those???

Sent from my StarTac
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] chrcol:
Me personally I want the battery cover warnings, not sfinder, I like my display to turn on when unplugging charger.

All this stuff can be toggled with the xposed module, by removing it from the rom the choice is taken away from the user, thats my feedback thats all.

But anyway I installed this rom and funny enough all those were still in place. So I am not sure why the author said they removed.

Here is my feedback. Note I have no feedback on battery drain yet as for the most part the charger has been plugged in.

Compared to kitkat for sure this rom is faster which is nice, I have yet to find anything broken. So no crashes, weird errors etc.

I have been disappointed tho that samsung seem to have removed various options that were in kitkat (and that are still in AOSP 6.x) such as the ability to restrict background traffic on mobile data, seperated wifi and mobile data traffic stats, and the normal application manager which shows apps loaded in memory.

On the flipside tho samsung have kept mute fast toggle in place which is removed from AOSP 6.x which is good.

I also had to manually tell some apps where the sdcard is after the weird naming convention given to the external sdcard. I was able to restore backups of apps made with titanium backup on kitkat which meant I kep tsome old versions of apps I wanted to keep such as old root explorer.

I plan to use stockkernel but for now will keep the default kernel in place as need to go to bed soon.

I like the built in permission management, so seems this removes the need for me to run third party software for this such as LBE security master or xprivacy.

I have one app that wont detect root but the rest of my root apps work fine.

I installed the themes app from the other thread which works with the supplied themes but have yet to find a way to download themes, and sadly the bundled themes with it all still have white backgrounds in menus.

Xposed framework seems to be working fine.

Interestingly it seems the new bootloader that is required for this rom does not prevent simplegx kitkat build from booting, that will work with the new bootloader. Which means there is no need to look for some old bootloader should one want to downgrade again, but the new modem prevented kitkat from booting, but old modems are easier to find anyway.

I installed via TWRP which is now my current recovery.

Also not yet tested phone calls, will test this tomorrow. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] putti71:
Thanks for your efforts on testing this Rom, but since most of us are already (and this since mid of may) this Rom or another MM Rom, we do know this already by now. But thank you for tanking your time

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] chrcol:
Well my feedback is also to invite responses to anything I find.

Some more feedback now regarding battery life.

Whilst the phone is in use battery drain seems respectable, at least as good as kitkat, but in deep sleep its much worse, even tho 6.0 has the new doze function.

With wifi on during sleep (and autosync), kitkat had on average 5 days life before needing charging so circa 20% drain per 24 hours. With wifi off, it was double so about 10% drain per 24 hours.

On this rom, I left the phone to sleep when I slept wifi on but autosync off, and about 9 hours later it had drained 29%. It has greenify with no deep hibernation enabled but aggressive doze enabled. No amplify. Better battery stats wasnt installed properly so I got no BBS diagnostics for the 9 hours. The in built OS battery stats simply showed very small drain for the cell signal and thats it. If anyone already knows a fix for deep sleep drain I appreciate if they could share it.

Moving forward I want to fix the problem as there is no doubt in my mind this is a lot faster than kitkat, so now BBS is installed properly so I will have more diagnostics and I have just enabled amplify to see if that helps at all and finally wifi is now off, to see if the problem is limited to only when wifi is on. When the phone was unlocked this morning, greenify showed some doze stats, which were a bit confusing as it either was saying for most of the time it was dozing, or the other way round. When I checked the battery drain graph in the OS battery page, it had fast drain up until about 45 mins before I woke up where it then stabilised, this matches the time period reported by greenify suggesting it took about 8 hours and 10 mins to enter doze, but once in doze battery drain was stabilised.

My oneplusone device which is also on MM but CM13, also has poor deep sleep drain so this issue might be a MM issue rather than rom specific.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] chrcol:
since noone else answered.

if you wipe data in twrp or do factory reset wipe, it isnt a full sdcard wipe, it just wipes things like app settings but not personal data such as photos and other media.

CWM should be same way, but I suggest using TWRP now days as CWM is dead and TWRP will be more compatible with newer roms.

---------- Post added at 10:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 AM ----------

I cannot explain but I am curious how you got BBS working, for me it only can show kernel wakelocks, all other stats say no battery_stats permission, and yes BBS is installed as system app and I even installed the xposed framework module to try and fix it but something is still blocking it access to battery stats.

some more feedback related to doze.

I dont know if its specific to this rom or a doze issue in general tho as this is the first time I use doze.

Doze was breaking k9 mail so I turned it off, or at least I think I turned it off by disabling battery power saving in settings, also agressive doze disabled in greenify but I left the doze notifications enabled in greenify.

K9 now seems ok, whatsapp will accept messages and make a notification, the led blinks, but after a short time the leed stops blinking whilst on kitkat it blinked forever. Greenify still gives me doze stats when phone wakes up so somehow I think doze is still on and is whats killing the whatsapp led flash. Otherwise tho I am still very happy with the rom. I would prefer a dark theme but I am accepting the colour change now.

More than 10% over night (04 am - 09 am).
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] runhappytoday:
Yep I have that too. Pokemon Go can't even connect to the GPS. It always says still connecting.

I have done more testing through everyday usage. My 4G turns off randomly. Sometimes because I am on the go so it needs to connect to another mobile tower. But I have never experienced that before on Novarom.

Anyone else experiencing 4G drops?

This probably doesn't help but I am using this ROM in Singapore.

Yep I experience this too. In fact, Pokemon Go can't pick up any GPS as well.

My 4G and Mobile network is dropping frequently lately. Whether I am stationary or moving it will just drop suddenly. I haven't had it drop during a call yet.

But it has dropped while I am on the Internet and even as I was posting this post. Anyone else get this too?

I am using a Singapore S5 G901F.

ok I have moved a step forward with battery life which now beats what I was getting on simplegx rom kitkat.

On kitkat I had circa 20% a day drain with wifi enabled on screen off.

Initially on this rom after I fixed a few issues and enabled shallow hibernation in greenify I was getting 25% drain a day on average.

In use drain was already in favour of this rom.

I then did a bit of diagnosis with the limited tools I had (better battery stats still only partially working). But that and amplify showed google framework and play store services as heavy on waking up the phone, with screen off phone was awake 15-20% of the time.

I disabled shallow hibernate in greenify, this was as it turns out breaking notifications functionality, enabled deep hibernation although I dont usually use this. Finally after that capped wakelocks to 7200 secs (2 hours) for google framework and location calls in amplify. I also disabled a google service in amplify as well, if needed I will get the exact names for people.

Drain significantly slowed even noticeable after only a couple of hours, although awake time was still about 4-5% which I think is too high still but thats a 2/3 cut. I had a problem tho that amplify would think its the free version when play store was hibernated in deep hibernation mode until I manually launched play store. So I disabled deep hibernation again which after the changes I made in amplify did not have a negative affect on drain. So that fixed amplify licence checking.

Now after 26 hours and heavy phone call use during that time as well as some screen on time checking stats and using greenify the battery has drained 15%. Beating my kitkat config as well. I have also had some notifications that now will flash forever until I check them, whilst previously after 5 mins or so they got stopped. Note I am currently using the mega kernel with some power saving settings enabled in that as well. Whilst on kitkat I was limited to a stock kernel (simplegx kernel was not much different to stock).
