The one in Playstore? In the op of v4a they say that's mainly to promote v4a and not officially supported by them.

F that lol

I'm trying to get this to work system wide. It shouldn't be this hard but every post I read its just getting jumbled in my head lol.

I'll make it work
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] diarrheaicedtea:
Long time listener, first time caller here.

So, the 10 minutes I played with this ROM, it was friggin' awesome. Then I did something stupid, and bricked the everloving doodoo out of my MetroPCS On5. Quick details:

-Until two weeks, running stock/non-rooted with latest firmware. 'Murican version.

-Rooted via TWRP/SuperSU, no problem at all. Ran fine.

-Installed Superstarz, had some bootloop problems but was able to get it running after a bit of a struggle

-Key part: turned OEM unlock back off at some point before rebooting (moron)

I have tried everything I can think of. At first I couldn't access download mode, but after fiddling for some time I was able to resolve that. Needless to say, I can't get into recovery. I was getting one of the custom binary errors, flashed only the system file again and that was resolved. If I try to flash all 4 firmware files via ODIN I get the FRP error now, and the download process fails immediately. Allowing the phone to boot normally puts it into the FRP loop. I've tried to follow all FRP bypass methods I could find with no result. Trying to boot into recovery tells me to restore via Samsung Switch. I've wiped and re-tried every way I can think of, including with older versions of firmware, and tried the Samsung Switch route (had success with that program and this device in the past) but it won't even recognize the phone. Latest error I'm getting indicates an SW version problem, so I have to assume I'm either using an out-of-date firmware file(s), or I've lost my mind.

For good measure, I've also tried this on multiple PCs and a Mac, all with similar results. Only resource I can think of that I haven't pillaged yet is my wife's phone, which is the same model but remains in the basic rooted ROM state. Just can't think of anything that would do for me.

Any ideas? If not, this thing is about to become target practice.

Was the Superstarz ROM ever updated from the first one that was posted? I'm using the original Superstarz ROM from December, I think.

[MENTION=4082923]EpicSaga[/MENTION] the last post on this topic from the dev [MENTION=2892269]czarsuperstar@gmail.com[/MENTION] was April 3rd. But I doubt we'll see an updated ROM for awhile by the looks of it. I say all this fully hoping I'm wrong and a newer version comes soon or maybe a compiling guide that way we can help out by getting the development process on this device moving.
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] czarsuperstar@gmail.com:
I will update the ROM. I had to download the tar first as I don't have the phone anymore. Please be patient with me.
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] omnis:
I'm bout to the point of getting dirty with the kernel source myself, but I am not sure where to go about finding it. If you wouldn't mind enlightening me as to either where to find it, or if there's a way to extract it from either the Superstarz ROM or just from the Stock ROM. I am a dedicated Linux user, kinda funny because the Prey app for Windows was emailing me that it hasn't located my device for a month. I guess I just haven't wanted to boot into my Windows partition for that long. Anyways, if the kernel source could be made available, preferably the one used with the Superstarz ROM so I don't break my existing setup I'll send you a supermassive digital hug [emoji66]. I am just tired of seeing the logcat errors at boot from Xposed because selinux isn't permissive, plus I'd love to see if I can dare attempt to re-compile it to implement F2FS myself. The task is daunting, but I can't resist a challenge. A side note, I have V4A all set up, but it seems intermittent at best. I saw some interesting things when Googling, but for a different Galaxy model. It mentioning freezing Sound Alive and Adapt Sound, plus modifying a conf file and a very specific methodology of install. I made a mistake of trying to freeze those packages after I was all setup with V4A and ended up with no sound. Thankfully, I had a Nandroid backup prior to. Anyways, I'm thinking of experimenting with a combination of the method posted in the Superstarz forum and that other method I saw Googling installing Viper4Android on Galaxy Marshmallow, I believe it was. I just haven't been up for that headache as of late, but I will document and post my findings here when I get to it. I think the method given in the Superstarz thread still has hooks into those packages somehow (Sound Alive and Adapt Sound). Anyways, I love you all at XDA (even the non-posters). Thanks for reading.

Anyone got Google Assistant working? I've searched everything and can't figure out why I can't get it going. It was fine before this ROM (no I'm not complaining or blaming - I love this ROM!) but now I can't get it going. Been trying to figure this (and themes) out for awhile and getting nowhere.

I'm on the sm-g550t2.

Try downloading Google first from the Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] stovo06:
Got it. I've used the must recent stable and beta. Even gave them a day to settle in but I don't get the options. Just ok Google on maps and Google app. Not even a training model anymore. Has same issue on LG a few months back so I'm confident it's user error somewhere
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jag9906:
I've been workijg on the kernel source since dec. Have one build on old chain working after running a script for deepsleep from a few years back for 5.1 on s6 I bealive. I have about 40 to 50 compiled kernel haven't run many with oatch yet. 3 or 4 kernel attempts from scratch editing 2000 to over 6000 c and header files per attempt. Just about done with my newest repository after jumping from linaro 4.9 which compiles to a custom cross of uber x sabormod toolchain. Which is on a new branch. Have 100 governors not all usable yet. 20 hotplugs, power, quickwake, partial etc, 10 I/o schedulers, kexec for nethunter built tested, once I lock down a lock down.memory part kexec hardboot to try multirom.port. OC UV cpu, gpu sysfs tables etc. I will release a solid build and throw up as many modules as I can to let people pick and choose howw to customize it. Messing around with some note and flashship S serials kernel options among others. But some of the core kernel.stuff is totally borked due to samdung releasing crap code. Fuelgague charger sm5703 will burn your soc up temps 300 tried many ports of it, most time just leads down a rabbit hole fixing issue after issue their coding is horrid same with mali for our device what they released is not a working source code. And running 6 plus toolchains is a nightmare of edits. Start with tge working linaro 4.9 gnueafihf I can upload to my git if you want it. At least you can get a compile to start testing I can even even upload files edited to help your start. Also start with the kernel source used for twrp save you headaches at the beginging. With that or touch branch and my edited files save you weeks if not month plus of pulling hair out and cursing all that is samsung. And base your defconfig off the twrp without sm5703 fuelgauge or charger that was 4 momths of seeing no deepsleep even with. Xposed apps, and wakelock killing and hacking app for permissions and wakelocks, cpu was still 100 to 91% all times screeeln off with power saving 4 hour to 6 hr max battery life. And constant lock uos with battery at 300 degrees F.

sorry for typos on phone, fixed sone lol

Hey Superstarz

I need to jump on my windows partition which is an almost never run to load up assaads kitchen and try your rom loading without

system/priv-app/autopreconfig and system/app/preconfig in it. I think its the preconfig app that will auto download anything missing without asking or notifying. Unless the apk list is edited. I just auto freeze on install another 35 to 40 apps and delete throughout the system now. I was annoyed that i kept seeing hangout, chrome, etc showing up in system folder lol.

how can i get snapchat to log in? I uninstalled Xposed and still wont let me?
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jkeniston:
I've had the same problem and from what I found after a lot of searching is it looks like an issue on some Samsung devices running 5.0 and I'm guessing 6.0 it said to try updating the phone to the newest firmware update and it SHOULD take care of the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] insane209:
I actually odin the full stock 6.0 rom, installed Snapchat, logged in and then rooted and installed recovery. Then wiped only cache, sytem and left data alone and installed the rom with xposed.

The point is not wiping data while installing the custom rom and not logging out of Snapchat at all

---------- Post added at 01:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 AM ----------

do you have a custom kernel rom where you can "Kernel Overclock"? for Samsung On5?
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] shanec0610:
Not all that happy with this,started with a fresh factory reset and flashed,had no Google search,no voice to text option on anything,no xposed as advertised adoptable storage poses huge difficulties to set up crashes and freezes often think I'm gonna wipe it all and just root old school .
[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] omnis:
Dude, all you have to do is download and install "Google" (Search) from the Play Store if your issue is that you want to voice search from the little "G" google shortcut on the main screen. It just isn't wasn't integrated into this ROM by default, but that's an easy fix. Adoptable storage sucks, here's why: You won't be able to store anything like Movies, Music, etc. on your external SD Card. It will be used ONLY for app storage. Thus is the point of using the more popularized Link2SD, but IMO the Apps2SD app is waaay better, but to each their own. Yes, you will need to do some work and reading to get it set up, but such is life. I advise reading up on F2FS as well because adoptable storage has apparently advanced to use it and so too now can Apps2SD/Link2SD for that much more enhancement of speed for flash-storage type devices (why it was born). There's nothing wrong with this ROM other than some very specific techy things (kernel not permissive yet) that techy people are working on (workarounds exist, but are spotty). Please be appreciative that any work is being done here at all, thanks. If you don't know what you're doing then yes, go back to a stock ROM. This ROM does work brilliantly however. The Xposed Framework is NOT for people who do not put in the foot work, read, and learn as much as possible. Sorry if that sounded saucy, but it's the truth. I've been meaning to step in and do a kernel rebuild myself, but have been going through life stuff unfortunately atm. Look, all I'm saying is read, read, read, and educate yourself. An example about Xposed: Don't expect Snapchat to work right out of the box with Xposed. It's all about learning the zen art of "workarounds" and if you practice long and hard, the payoff is tremendous. Cheers! Also, there are things like Magisk Manager which I've been using, but not yet had Safety Net working (goal is to hide Xposed/Root from certain apps and be able to do things like Android Pay/Pokemon Go, yada yada). It has improved Viper4Android though. Strange lag at boot, but anyways sorry I'm going off topic.

If you have another device you can use titanium backup where you've been logged in successfully and then restore it to this device (from what I've read).

Maybe you do know everything.

Maybe you can do better.

The Xposed app can not be included in custom ROMs , you have to install it. Any modifications are for those who hate bloated systems. You can use the stock rom and start deleting apps until you are satisfied.

Thank you for your reply it was actually kind of shocked to see a reply I guess it takes negative feedback to get anybody's attention around here first off this is not my first time rooting a phone downloading and flashing a ROM or working with Xposed I am a GravityBox fanatic my primary phone is a Galaxy S7 AT&T variant SM g930a I'm sure you're well aware of all the issues will rooting this phone so with that being said the Galaxy on5 is just a spare phone given to me by my son-in-law after he bricked it and was about to throw it away I am a 50 year old truck drivers I have nothing better to do with my time then read read read and play with the phones the very first thing I did was to download Google keyboard which would be all good if it would work correctly it works fine for about the first ten searches then we get the old Google can't be reached at this time message (bummer boooo) which a reboot will fix but who wants to reboot that often?second me myself I don't do music or movies soon removable media isn't my cup of tea adoptable storage is perfect I was able to get it going the first time flashing the rom bur this time for some reason it's not taking oh I won't give up believe me because like I said I'm not a music and movies type person I'm more into utilities and work arounds which are needed(adoptable storage for instance ) on a phone with only 8g internal storage apps2sd and link2sd are another story about a bad taste left after using most if this is probably the fact that I'm working with Samsung which is not the most root friendly device so I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm not slamming your rom by no means actually I salute you doing what nobody else has put forth effort to do I was only pointing out the issues I was experiencing isn't that the way that you Developers learn of problem is through feedback ? And last but not least you would think that 2 identical phones would be the same bur we both know that it's just not so right out of the box they can behave completely different keep up the good work and try to listen to customer complaints with a more positive ear. And by the way I have not deleted yet my S7 has screen overlay detected problems at the moment so I will continue to tweak your build it may survive only time will tell

[Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion] whodisname:
Ain't nothing wrong with this ROM, or adoptable storage and partitioning your SD card to still be used for external storage. If something doesn't work, 9/10 times it because of user error. The other time its because the battery died or you had a bad connection or faulty (corrupt file)

Other than tat, if it doesn't work, its probably because you broke it.

I can help with testing. My phone hasn't been bricked in several days so I'd say I haven't been having enough fun.

As an aside, I de-moroned my phone and got this working, and its buttery smoothness/debloatification/ general nicer-ness as compared to stock really make me like my freebie phone.

The fact that our benevolent czar does this without compensation other than gaining a particular set of skills, kudos and feedback from appreciative users, as well as a plethora of virtual thanks really speaks to his character.
