[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] renatortb:
I just flashed the Phoenix v11 and i got the AT&T no go screen. As [MENTION=7021141]IJoxer[/MENTION] wrote, i flashed the G900A OC4 Kernel via Odin in AP slot and download mode in the phone (power+vol up+home) and the rom booted nicely. I think that they already tested these roms of the post and they work somehow.

Just want to thank again for all effort.

PS: is a team developer rom better than single person rom in general? Any advice of Phenix vs TMS5 vs Alliance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
As far as I have seen tms 5 was better than any thing we had until the phoenix ROM came around its a bit snappier than tms 5 and a bit more stable also . tms 5 seemed laggy after a while . also I've noticed if you don't leave at least 1gb of phone memory for any ROM to run on it will get buggy . for a while I thought it was the ROMs . but found out it was lack of memory . but I prefer Phoenix ROM myself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] renatortb:
Thank you for you help!

I used for a considerable time the TMS5 3.0 and the Alliance v8 roms and I had the same impression about the laggy stuff. Also, I came in the same conclusion as you about the time of use, lack of memory and get buggy. I agree in all of that. :cool:

I tried the Phoenix yesterday and I liked it very much, but I got confused about the aroma choices. Could help me with the must have choices? About the kernel OC4, is this the stock kernel for android 5.0? I noticed thar TMS5 3.0 and Alliance v8 use the OC7. What's the difference and i will lost much in using the OC4?

Is there any other roms that you recommend?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
OC7 is basically the OC4 Kernel for the G900F, which is the international version of the S5 that the ROM was developed for.

When you see a ROM that needs OC4 or OC7, its usually safe to use OC4, OF2, or OF3 because they all run the exact same Kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] renatortb:
Thank you very much for your answer. Also, thank you for all your work. I believe that many of us are anxious for a 6.0 rooted rom... :D:D:D:D:good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
Hey there, sorry I've been a ghost here lately. I'm also anxious to see if [MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] gets MM rooted rom running. As for a recommendation on the roms listed, I would definitely recommend Xtrestrolite 2.2, and it is my personal favorite. It comes with literally no apps though, so you'll need to download Google Play Services/Playstore manually and throw them on the phone via PC. I also recommend a file manager since you need to get around in order to install them.

Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Well at this point it seems that we need to be able to modify the boot image for the rooting... Which doesn't really bode well for us because locked bootloaders don't like it when you do that. Still working at it though, just trying to force a systemless root onto the system. Should have test build 3J out by this Saturday or sooner..

IN THE MEANTIME IF YOU WANT A S6 MM PORT I CAN GET THAT RUNNING IN A SNAP!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
Personally, I'd prefer the rooted MM rom, I've had it with stock, and I'm sure an s6 port would be a headache without root. However, you're the one contributing, so I suppose it's up to you, either way it's appreciated. I'm still looking at my options to downgrade, if any, I'm willing to test, but looking for possible recovery options just in case.

I need me some root!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
If someone can find a couple update binaries for the 870a i could *try* to reverse engineer something ODIN flashable... No garuntees though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
Would anything from this list of updates work? Or possibly the stock OJ3 rom from Muniz_ri?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yes that should work.. I'll work on it when I get to my desktop (~20 mins)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
You, my friend, are an absolute rockstar! If you can work something up, I (and I'm sure several others) will be forever grateful, I'll test asap, just let me know.

Thanks a ton!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] renatortb:
I have one doubt about the XtreStoLite. In their post, they tell that we first flash the ROM and after, if we want, we flash the Aroma any time. But how do i do that in FlashFire? It is possible?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] captivated1971:
Id also very much like to see this happen it would open up so many doors for the s5 again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
Yea, you can flash the optional installer with FlashFire, as it supports Aroma now. I only used it once, and honestly didn't need anything from it, but you're welcome to do so. After you flash the rom, then the kernel and get up and running, just go flash the installer as a zip/ota and you'll be good to go.

It's been done! I threw a guide together, which you can find here.

Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] renatortb:
Thank you very much.

I will test this rom and leave my avaliation here.

I just want a nandroid backup. The locked bootloader doesn't allow that, right? My Phoenix's install are top notch! :cool: Very customizated. I don't wan't to lose that. Maybe Titanium can restore a lot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
I've always used Titanium with no problem, so I can't vouch for anything else. I like Phoenix for customization as well, but it seems like it eventually begins to get slow and buggy, as with most tweaked Roms. Xtrestolite has yet to do this to me, nice barebones ROM, with excellent battery and snappy feedback.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] renatortb:
Phoenix didn't get slow and buggy with me at least until now, but I agree with you that tweaked Roms have this tendency. My only complaint with Phoenix is that it drain my battery a bit more than I expected and I wasn't able to install ViPER4Android. So I'm thinking in install Xtrestolite with xposed for more customization. I need aroma for the fingertip and wallpaper (and other little things).

As always thank you very much for you help and reply. Your post make me want to stay with s5 for more time.

PS: I will put here my thoughts about Xtrestolite.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] baconator1979:
Any recommendations on a rom for doing my own theme. Alliance is the best I've seen so far, but it so dang buggy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] dardanr3:
great work but can i flash xposed installer on XtreStoLite ROM v2.2 and which version tu use, ? thnx and have a great day :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
Xtrestolite hands down!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
Absolutely!

Follow this guide.

Freedom v5 isn't working on s5 g900a :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Helgen:
Would it be possible to throw on a metro pcs rom with root on this? I want WiFi calling, this Alliance rom is absolutely terrible.

I want to use this firmware

G900T1 5.1.1 then I'm going to root it, thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rakuu:
If you're planning on odining another model's firmware that's not going to work. As far as I know your best bet would be twi5ted, that has wifi calling in it, can't speak to how well it works though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
I'm going to go ahead and recommend Xtrestolite again, it seems you can get nearly everything up and running. If you're lazy the S5 rom by AMBASADII is fairly decent, should be able to get WiFi calling to work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] junnelle:
do we have a chance of getting overclock kernel for our g900a? I have been looking forward to it for months now

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
When I tried to install Freedom on my G900A, it said unauthorized software, bring to ATT store. How did you get it to work? Did you first use the OC4 kernel? I'm currently back on kitkat now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] gigahurts:
I flashed it, then went to Odin mode and flashed the kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Did you come from a Lollipop rom on OC4? Or OF3? When I tried the first time I came from OF3 I believe. And now I'm wondering which version I should start the flashing procedure on. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] gigahurts:
Yes oc4, I think, I started from scratch using muniz method, nce, I believe, then towelroot, etc, then oc4 (muniz method) or whatever the latest muniz method (keeping root) was, then I used flasfire, I got the same message as you about taking the phone to att, but I flased the oc4 kernel in Odin and all worked after that. Except the WiFi sometimes doesn't save the WiFi password, I almost have to type it in every time. Weird, great except for that
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
ALL I HAD TO DO WAS FLASH THE OC4 KERNEL??? You have no idea how much of a headache this has been. I'm gonna try to go directly from rooted 4.4 to Freedom and I will report back. Just to make sure where did you place the oc4 kernel in Odin? AP slot?

I know a fix for the wifi thing that might work for you... lemme find it

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] electric101:
are you sure???

i just bought this active that was supposed to be 4.4.2 but its actually at 5.0 (OF3) and all those links that state it will work see to show of G900 ROM and not a G870 i'd love to know someone has actually tried it with the active.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rakuu:
I'm fairly certain, I don't own an 870 though so anything you do is at your own risk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] audicoupe86:
working on 870 a

I have the 870 active and have used tms5 3.0 and 2.0/ alliance v8 / and twisted. twisted is a pain in the ass to load but i got it working. alliance was extremely customizable and i loved it but it got slow. tms5 has always been good with less customization than i wanted. i tried to load alliance v9 once a long time ago and it failed. may try again. twisted is a

T-mo port and it shows it shows as a g900a in the phone specs. same for tms5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] IJoxer:
It's supposed to, it's just a setting in the build.prop due to it being a 900a rom, it's still compatible for the 870a.

This list should be updated, many roms are no longer supported and xtrestrolite has evolved to X ROM and APTOS now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] ThePess1m1st:
I know this model is getting a little old now but I just picked it up as a backup and I haven't rooted anything Samsung in a few years (and never an Active). Anyway, I rooted it (Dr. Fone) installed FlashFire v0.53 (and changed the date) and managed to get the stock ROM, the tether and nano GApps installing. Everything looked good until the phone should reset. Instead it turned off. Now it won't turn on, charge, be recognized by my computer/Odin, just nothing. Anyone have any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] KtownJeff:
Updated info for 2019

SafeStrap is only for KItkat so u have to down grade from Lolipop to boot in and make sure u flash the OC4 kernal before rebooting.....its easy to install and easy use...i picked up on the verizon thread another kernal to flash NG3 with odin that will bring you out of a bootloop without having to down grade to the test firmware and starting over. It opens up safestrap, from there you can just load your nandroid backup...

Leave the OC4.zip file on your sd card you flash it from safestrap

Load the apks from the your SD card the NG3.tar file is for the odin AP slot for bootloop recovery emergancy only

I had LTE for around a month, then out of nowhere, no updates, nothing it disappeared, it's been gone for almost 2 weeks now.

My carrier (O2-UK) says there is no issue, I have literally no idea, I am almost certain it's just Oneplus phones.. but anyone have any info?

As I said, I've tried custom ROM, I've tried all the stock roms clean flashed.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Lownita:
I can say that my phone often sticks to edge when I disable the wifi, it won't switch to 3g/4g unless I enable/disable it. I believe this was not the case with oos 3.2.1, with which my phone came with (only have it for a week now). This also happens with CM13. I think there was a update to the radio in the last oos update, so this might be the reason.

BTW I'm on 3.2.4 (stock) and my wife is on the same network with a Samsung S6 with the same network and results. So......I'm sure (95%) it's due to your individual tower reception.

Hi All

for the first time in my Android life, i've kept my phone 100% stock

However, im curious to know if the compass issues have been fixed by custom rom devs?

By issues, i mean Maps constantly telling me to calibrate the compass, and GPS intensive applications (such as Pokemon GO, or others) appear have some minor tracking issues.

But after a few minutes, the image in my TV gets blurry and the connection fails. I contacted Samsung and they made me perform a series of tests,all of Which amounted to nothing in the end. Then , they said I Would have to do a factory reset. First of all, I'm a little weary about this, couse if it does not work, I'll have done a lot of work for nothing. What should I do?? Is it a hardware problem? I'm counting on you guys!!

Using "caffine" to keep your device awake, might be a work around. (turn it on in the quick settings pull down menu, tap to set time, or for more control get the app of the same name on Play store)

Or try testing it with another casting app from play store that might keep the device from sleeping.

strange problem. What version of Android? Stock? Are you using inbuilt casting like in CM13? Or Have you tried another casting app? I could only get mine going with allcast app from Cyanogen (or was it Google?)
