People are rooting PK1 firmware, but by going to pk1 bootloader you might loose some flexibility. You can always go forward but I don't think with respect to the bootloader that you can go back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] RBThompsonV:
I just did mine... If it helps, I did it in this order:

Backup 1.41 via flashfire

Odin the PH1 firmware onto the phone, full package

root

install flashfire

Flash fire:

wipe

restore 1.41

flash 1.5

Boot

Flashed 1.5 clean... having the messaging issues I had a few weeks as go again... I can only send 1 text message every 5 minutes... looking at APN settings, everything is greyed out and I do not have the option to ADD another or to modify the Verizon one... any ideas on how to fix without re-flashing the ROM (that was my course of action on 1.41 to resolve the issue)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] j3ffm1ll:
Try the reset to defaults option under the three dot menu when you are in apn settings. Not sure if it will help but I tried that on another device with similar issues and it worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] RBThompsonV:
"Reset to default" I greyed out and not selectable... :(

Nice FastROM. Need little help - Got locked out of phone

Many thanks for sharing this nice ROM. I really like it but I kinda got myself locked-out of the phone.

I enable multi-language keyboard input option for the Samsung keyboard in setting. After done that, the keyboard won't come up any more. Keyboard errs out and shows an error saying the Samsung keyboard has stopped working and forced to close. Without thinking through, I rebooted the phone and now I got stuck at the lock/password screen without a keyboard to unlock it.

I try wipe and reset the phone in recovery mode but I could not get to recover mode. Not sure what to do next? I appreciate any help you can provide.

Khan.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] jrkruse:
You can get to recovery and wipe data. Power+VolUp+Home
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
If you still can't get into Recovery, or it doesn't free up your keyboard, you may have to ODIN and start over again (This ROM is worth another try).

Before doing that, connect to Smart Switch on your computer and backup your apps and files so you don't loose everything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] RBThompsonV:
flash PH1 through Odin, then reroot and re flash Echoe
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] fastasterix:
Thanks for the tips,

I was able to get back in by using odin to reload the recovery rom image. After that boot the phone to recovery mode and do a wipe data / factory reset.

Before I got in this trouble, I found that none of Samsung update (Edge, Galaxy essentials, Samsung Keyboard) were able to successfully update on my phone under this ROM. I am not sure why but it could one of the feature that won't be available using this ROM. I like this ROM a lot, Fast, Lean, and with many great tools. I will use until a newer version comes out.

I consider pairing a bluetooth keyboard as a backup and also install Google keyboard as alternate options. Using pattern and fingerprint lock as t. That would give me more option to get back in.

Cheers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
Glad you are back in business.

Note - you will not get updates unless your are on stock ROM. I think they also come when you are rooted stock, and would overwrite and unroot it - so be careful.

Cant respond to floating text message window

OK... in my long string of little things that act weird...came across this one...

For some reason, when I receive a text message, I get the popup floating text message window that allows me to close, view, reply... if I reply, I can type my message but when I send, it does not send the message (it acts like it does... but messages doesn't show me responding and my recipient does not receive a text from me...) anyone else having issues with this or have found a fix?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] underoath403:
So has anyone put together a video to help people install version 1.5? It looks like there is really no one way to get this rom working in the forum. I'm running the 1st version of this rom and its slowed down so bad even when I do video the sound is way off. You almost see the frames of my phone during each animation. So I want to upgrade to the new rom hoping it will help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
No video, but by following instructions - have reinstalled it several times and nver has been slow - only few small issues thike WiFi calling doesn't totally work.

No need to mess with the bootloader to flash this ROM. I did to flash the Verizon Beta Update ZIP..

When you flash this ROM, choose your carrier and you should be fine. You will probably have to wipe data, as the first time I flashed 1.41 it would not boot until I wiped data. But don't mess with bootloaders for thsi - iwas on v2 and it worked fine.

To the OP's :

Getting bored with Verizon and TMo Betas - would like to come back here if there were just some fixes of a few issues (for me on TMo WiFi calling is big, and it only FC's when call is answered not when I am called).

Is all development here dead until a rooted 7.x is available (if ever), or will you come back after you possibly also get bored with the Beta's?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] webbyz:
Hello all. Glad to be back in the Android game again after coming off of the iPhone 6s+ and decided to give this phone and ROM a go. Love the ROM. But for some reason after I flashed it and did a reboot, I seem to have lost Root. All root checkers are showing that I don't have SU.

Has anyone else experienced this? I tried the initial root method again and it did not seem to work. I am thinking I might need to flash back to stock and re-root, but I didn't know if there might be a better/easier way.

Any help would be appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
The engineered kernel should still be there so try doing SU again. Don't rush it - sometimes it just sits still until it completes.

No dice. Seems like I can't get it to re-install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
Looks like you will have to start over again. I have done so at least a dozen times after messing with this and other ROMs when I screwed something up.

I would ODIN the PK1 firmware, and then follow the Rooting OP carefully again. Maker sure your rooted Stock ROM is working Ok (reboot a few times) before you flash this ROM again,

I'm on running v1.2 on my Verizon s5 also running xposed. I was wondering if I need to do a full wipe before I update to 1.5.also do I need to Uninstall xposed or anything else before updating. Any help is appreciated. Also want to say thanks to the amazing devs for doing what you do!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
Maybe not - I got away with going to 1.5 from 1.2 ok - after blowing up when I earlier did the same thing upgrading to 1.2.

When you flash the adk module in system gets wiped, but xposed app and other xposed apps do not. If everything us working after not wiping, be prepared to only have to flash the sdl module only.

If it has major issues, flash 2.5 again and select the wipe data option. This wipes only data and not your internal sd.

Battery Life ???

Was wondering if someone could comment on the battery life of this rom compared to the stock?

was thinking about rooting my edge with either the U or V firmware but have heard that all rooting variants greatly decrease the battery life.

I'm currently on P13.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] gaww:
There are battery fixes covered in the rooting threads and maybe here, They work - at least me

Even after that, many still complain - but think from there it is more of a matter of individual setups (some apps are notorious on batteries). Sma complaints are coming out about the Betas - same story.

---------- Post added at 09:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

Don't think that gets you straight there - the one below does. It clearly points out you cannot go back to earlier bootloaders from the latest - it is v4.

Why would the ask in one gestures app not work?

I did a clean install and wiped like directed. I set the all in one gesture app to kill app on long press of the back button. But it doesn't work. When I long press the back button, if the app has a menu, it will open the menu, otherwise it does nothing.

I have cleared the app cache, uninstalled and reinstalled the app but still nothing.

Ideas?thoughts?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] RBThompsonV:
I did not... I moved on to Stang (it's alright... wish I could have stayed on Echoe, it's a bit cleaner)... I tried troubleshooting to figure out what was causing the APN to lock... but seems to be locked from a clean flash... And never figured out what the cause was for the texting issue, I sort of think it had something to do with either greenify, or exposed... but never narrowed it down.... Sorry
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dalewest:
LOL... I tried Stang first, but I found it a bit... cluttered, for lack of a better adjective. Love Echoe, but the MMS issue is perplexing. I haven't done any real customization beyond what comes with the ROM.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] nu2droid:
Have you tried just changing the apn config file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dalewest:
Hi guys-

I ended up contacting Verizon to have them reprovision my phone, which did the trick. Seems that when they moved it from my company's plan to my family plan, a bit didn't get flipped correctly. All is well now.

Yep, that's the first thing I tried, but it's not editable, nor can I create a new one... it's all grayed out or not presented in the UI. But it's moot now, since reprovisioning seems to have fixed my MMS issue.

RBThompsonV and nu2droid, thanks for your input.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] nu2droid:
I keep a copy of the "apns-config.xml" from \system\etc on my sdcard just for this. If I swap roms and have troubles I always replace it with a known good one.

Glad you got it going
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] RBThompsonV:
Hmm... Maybe I'll jump back to Echoe...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Lmax579:
So there is actually a problem with text messaging on Echoe ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dalewest:
No, I don't think so, and certainly not with texting. Speaking only for myself, I had an issue with sending and receiving MMS messages that was fixed by my having Verizon reprovision my phone. Not ROM related at all.

What confused matters is that apparently Verizon somehow locked down the APN such that no changes could be made to it, at least via the UI, and despite being rooted. This apparently gives the impression that something is wrong with the APN, when there probably isn't... and reprovisioning my phone fixed my issue, which supports the high probability that it isn't a ROM issue.

HTH

Oh OK, cuz I have Tmo and I missed some texts from my boss which ended up getting me in trouble...... She sent it Wednesday morning but I didn't receive them until about 24 hours ago... Weird
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dalewest:
Texting isn't a failproof method of communication, especially between carriers. Since you got them eventually, I'd say that it was an issue with either your carrier or your boss's... or perhaps both.

Android drain

Hi ALL,

JK,

Thanks for all your hard work, I have been following you for a couple of phones now.

Had 1.41, then 1.5, now I am back to 1.41

My original install of 1.41 hd fantastic battery life, using kernal aditor, and govtuner. I went to 1.5 and it all went to hell. I went back to 1.41 thinking it might be the ROM, but I am still in the same boat regarding battery. life Every install was a complete wipe

I know my 7e was sleeping because cpu spy listed it. Now cpu spy is listing the 307 freq as dominant. I tried taking off govtuner and going to l speed, but still very little sleep, even at night when it is charging. IN every install, I have unistalled quite a few programs that were bloat.

I have been using wake lock detector, and am seeing that the Google App has 23,124 wakelock triggers since 7 this morning. Everything else in miniscule.

Under Battery usage, it shows android system 22%, android os 21% (since 7 this morning), everything thing else is again miniscule.

Does anyone have any ideas on what this may be?? what needs to be turned off?? what to look for?? how to find it??

Thanks in advance,
