I learned the hard way from my LG G Vista VS880 to ask very specific model questions ...

I'm looking at the Samsung Galaxy S5, 16GB, for Verizon

Are there sub-models that will vs will not work with this ROM, please?

I believe that the Verizon sub-model is SM-G900V?

Page 1 says:

"PhoeniX ROM For Samsung Galaxy S5 G900F, ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S 5"

The thread address contains "G900V":

Does anyone have this running stable & complete on a Verizon SM-G900V, please?

Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
First I am loving the this ROM. Thank you very much. Hate to say I was on CM and liked it very much until it became too unstable. But I am an old user of Dirty Unicorn on my s1 which I loved, so this similar with the mods..

OK the observations and questions. Its been rock solid for me, on 12.6. I did get some Bluetooth stutter on music today but no loss of Bluetooth or disconnects. Battery has been doing as well as CM was and better than stock for me. Feels like it charges slower on wireless than CM did, but fast on direct connect.

I also get "Connection has failed, would you like to reconnect" I have no idea what this is as it has happens at random, during calls but no disconnect, during surfing, no disconnect. Doesn't matter if I say yes or no I don't see what its doing different. Any ideas?

I get a notification for the SD card "For transferring photos and media". I can't send apps storage to it, I can't make it extended memory. I can only format as portable storage. Is this normal? Why is the notification there, it doesn't let me do anything.

And today while connected to the computer the "card" side disappeared while copying. Checked the phone and SD was still mounted and accessible in ES explorer. Had to reboot to get access to it back. In fairness I don't know how many days its been since I rebooted.

Would like to see USB configuration added to notifications opposed to being buried.

Lastly, if I wanted to add some of the apps that I didn't in the installer, would I have to reinstall from the beginning, then reinstall 12.6? would I have do a wipe or can I just do them over whats already there and not have to redo the whole phone again?

Thanks again, keep up the good work.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
As i have not yet installed this ROM but as you just quoted from the install directions "Use latest philz / twrp" which that indicates that you must be on an Unlocked device...Unless JrKruse posts a method using FF or SS, users with the 11 eMMC chip, unfortunately, are unable to install this ROM. Sorry bud

But you're able to install V11 from the other PhoenixROM thread that's in this forum

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NerdyKowboy:
FINAL EDIT: Working now. Thanks for great ROM

OK. I want to ask a "stupid question".

In the attempt to be "Smart", I have read everything very carefully.

In the first post, jkruse states "I'm proud to present you my latest work! PhoeniX ROM For Samsung Galaxy S5 G900F"

The filename is "PhoeniX.ROM.V12.VZW.Marshmallow.G900V-V2".

So, is this ROM for G900F phones or G900V phones?

I have a G900V.

Unlocked the bootloader using instructions: http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/rd-unlocking-galaxys-s5-bootloader-t3337909

During that process, used "SafeStrap_PD1_Bootloader_Unlock_AIO.zip" since wanted to use Phoenix 12 and it is PD1.

Lost access to read microSD card (from twrp).

Did full wipe (totally cleared everything off phone memory)

Installed Phoenix Rom 12 using twrp (after loading it on phone memory)

Hung during install for about 10 minutes. Pulled battery to reboot.

Installed "VZW_BPB1_ODEX_DEODEX_V9.zip" using twrp. No sd card. No soft keys. No wifi functionality

------EDIT (hour later)

Proceeded on through steps of bootloader unlock. After next step (Odin flash of "G900V_Firmware_PB1.tar.md5" and "S5_KLTE_USA_VZW.pit ") regained soft keys, wifi, and SD card.

However, cannot see any content on phone storage or SD card storage when in ROM. When connect phone to computer, cannot read or write to either storage.

Thus, I'm hung on step of installing "Bootloader_Unlock_Safestrap.apk" because I can't transfer it to my storage and can't access it from ROM (tried MY Files app and ES File Explorer)

------EDIT (couple more hours later)

PhoenIX working. Got phone reading the storage again by using stock recovery to do factory reset. (Tried flashing OK3 and PB1 kernels and that didn't work).

Then, went back through bootloader unlock process.

Installed PF1. Installed jkruse's BS FREE MM for PF1. Worked. Almost left it there just bc I was working

Really wanted to try PhoenIX again. Tried it again. Worked. NOTE: about 10 minutes on PhoenIX startup screen on first boot
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] djr4x4:
Thus ROM is for 900V phones with unlocked bootloaders on pd1..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] alin919:

Authorize your computer in developer options [I don't see this option in Android 5.0]

Set USB debugging on [I did find & set this on the phone.]

Grant ADB root access [I presume this is loaded to the computer? Source?]

[NOTE: Does the ADB mention refer only to "Method 3"?

REACTIVATION LOCK MUST BE TURNED OFF [I don't see this option in 5.0]

[What does all of this mean, please? Pull battery for 10 seconds, then reinstall it, then "pwr+voldwn+home" or what is the sequence? Also, does one look for the "current binary status" in Settings - System or ??]

[What does this mean, please? Why would I go through all of this if I didn't plan on "running this rom"?]

[Again, is the battery pulled for 10 seconds then reinstalled? Also, is "5.0 rom" or "6.01 Rom" a reference to the Android ROM? 5.0 = Lollipop, 6.01 = Marshmallow? If so, I read [MENTION=1168000]jkru[/MENTION]se to suggest that 6.01 Marshmallow is preferred - and therefore I should let that upgrade run on my phone before starting this - yes?]

There's plenty of threads anf foruns that are full of guides and "how-to's", etc. I'm sorry bud and i mean well by saying this, if you don't truly understand the terminology on how or the ways of rooting/fllashing, recovery/Safestrap/FF or of anything else pertaining to this. Then i would just leave it be....what you've mostly posted in each post of various threads are in these threads. You've got to search for your answer.....again, apologize for my mild response.....you've just got to read, read and read more to understand......
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] handygeek7:
I have been reading them.

At times I've had 5-7 pages open at the same time - trying to reconcile contradictory posts & trying to follow stream-of-consciousness posts where someone tried and failed, tried and succeeded, then shared pieces of what worked and did not, but assumed the reader magically knew what they'd left out.

I date back to DOS days.

The common challenge to broader adoption of new ideas, from then to now, is skipped steps in instructions - due to assumed unique knowledge.

This (and superior documentation) is why hold-your-hand Apple, Google, MS, & even some distros of Linux have succeeded - often despite being more costly, less efficient, & invasive.

When those willing to try are unnecessarily frustrated due to missing steps and/or unclear terminology, and they don't have hours and days to learn via trial-and-error and reading disconnected fragments of processes endlessly, they give up.

That means that the hard-earned creative work of smart people becomes grossly-underutilized.

I have repeatedly edited my posts as a result of iterative reading, clarifying, reading, and clarifying - so that the next person who wants to try this doesn't have to invest dozens of hours in rediscovering the fragmented process (think of it as documentation - the part I can do to help).

What I requested was clarification of terms & verification of steps in the documentation.

Lack of clear documentation means that developers & experienced users find themselves wasting time answering the same questions over and over again.

As a former systems manager I learned that good (thorough) documentation was the key to adoption - and it massively reduced support time.

I just read this developer note on a Tab 4 thread - it sums up the value of good documentation well:

http://xdaforums.com/tab-4/development/rom-stock-t230-nu-acheron-rom-v1-0-2015-t3000107

IMHO, YMMV ... David

Need some clarification befor I jump. I'm currently on g900vvru2BPB1 rooted. If I read clearly, I must upgrade to PD1. Link says twrp the SS MM update. Reboot to SS and flash PD1 firmware. Question is...

1. Is twrp and SS the same? Currently booting from my LP twrp app, I'm taken to a recovery with the red shield - Lollipop SS 5.00 (twrp v.2.7.10) clearly says twrp and safestrap on the same screen...

2. If not same... describe the difference and how to get there.

Thank you in advance!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
They are similar but different. SS is used for locked bootloaders and TWRP is used for unlocked bootloaders where it's able to actually be the system recovery...if need be read up on them in their associated threads...also, is your CID 15? If so then you're able to unlock the bootloader if it's an 11, unfortunately, your locked until something becomes in the development trying to unlock...as this ROM requires an unlocked bootloader
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mastertech007:
You must have PD1 bootloader and firmware before you can flash this rom via TWRP ( I use TWRP 3.0.0-0).

Download Samsung phone info and double check.

By that reasoning I have a unlocked bootloader then. But still not clearly. Got a fast way to track the CiD?

Your post was awesome - it encouraged me to believe I could do this as well.

I'm not sure why someone, not you, was put-off by that.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] kazuma5401:
Just did mine. Phoenix is running great. I totally agree that the directions are a bit hazy. But they are complete. Just use twrp for everything. And Odin the pb1. But like I said. Just follow the direction. It's all there.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NerdyKowboy:
WARNING: I barely know what I'm doing. I'm just offering thoughts.

1.) I believe that you can run a previous ROM using more current firmware. Example: I'm running Phoenix v12, which is a PD1 ROM. I am on PF4 bootloader and firmware.

Not sure about that, but seems like I've heard that before. However, my success might just be a fluke. Might just work because PD1 and PF4 are both 6.0.1.

2.) According to the post that details unlocking of bootloaders and getting TWRP running (link below), the last step says to flash one of 3 files (from TWRP), and whichever you flash, that's the bootloader you are on. It might be worth a shot to just simply flash the appropriate file, so if you want to go to PB1, then flash "SafeStrap_PB1_Bootloader_Unlock_AIO.zip". However, that brings the possibility of soft bricking or generally messing stuff up. To be safe, I'd go to the section on the same post that states "If You Already Have Bootloader Unlocked And On A Samsung TW Rom" and follow steps under "Directions To Update Or Downgrade Bootloaders". Basically it's the same procedure you must have followed to get the bootloader unlocked, but flashing different files at the end as desired.

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/rd-unlocking-galaxys-s5-bootloader-t3337909

Sorry to link instead of typing it out, but I don't feel I can be much more clear than the great post by [MENTION=5414005]GeTex[/MENTION] (and followup by [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] on the first comment) . If you have specific questions on the procedure, you should probably post them on that thread. If you'd like, you can ask me directly and I'll help as much as I can, but I'm not a DEV, just a fairly educated user.

Good luck.
