[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Shipwreck65:
This is starting to get very frustrating.... All I wanna do is get rid of this garbage Sprint bloatware and it's causing hair pulling stress....

As I mentioned in my post above the SM-G900P is rooted with the mentioned apps installed. I tried the G900P_PCA_Batch_Debloater tool. When I double click the bat file the command window opens and the message "Waiting for device..." is there. The message comes up on the phone asking top allow the connection, I click allow..... Then nothing.....

I tried the Android_M_Full_Debloat.Tool_S5_V1.3. I copied the zip to the phone's SD card, then installed the zip with TWRP. When I hit install it went through some process saying it was clearing stuff.... But it didn't seem to clean anything because all the same stuff is still on the phone...

I searched here and google til I'm blue in the face for help on this.... I've seen many questions here from others asking for the same help all with no replies...... Can anyone help with this at all??? It would be greatly appreciated.

Titanium backup or any app management tool.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Shipwreck65:
I've tried that and the bloatware is still there....
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tdunham:
Then you will have to go through and freeze them one at a time with Titanium if the root method you installed wont allow you to uninstall apps.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Shipwreck65:
Tdunham, I used the debloat tool you link to in your original post but it didn't work. I may not have used it properly though.... I copied the zip to the phone's SD card, then installed the zip with TWRP by clicking the install button. When I hit install it went through some process saying it was clearing stuff but nothing was gone when I rebooted the phone. Did I do it wrong? Also, will it remove Sprint bloatware as well as Samsung bloat or just Samsung?

Does anybody have a custom kernel they're using with this ROM (or any TW marshmallow, I guess) that they like? Stock is feeling a little slow
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Lokmane Deve:
Hi,

is it include languages?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] gokart2:
Been awhile since I messed with this device. Odin flashed stock pk1. Then latest twrp. Then the latest debloated version listed in the 2nd OP. Booted to system, and it has "kernel is not seandroid enforcing, set warranty bit kernel" in the top and the "Samsung Galaxy S5, powered by android" at the bottom is the where it takes ~20min to boot? Came from MOAR which didn't have the kernel warning, and it's been quite awhile since I played with this device so I wanted to make sure I'm not wasting time. Thanks.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] richie16171:
I flashed this rom without any issues. I first upgraded my TWRP to 3.1.1.0. That is the latest. Then I went to wipe, advanced , and there I ticked everything except sd card and usb storage. Wiped and then flashed the Rom. Took around 15-20 min. Booted and rebooted and again booted and this time directly to OS.

No freezing , no issues. Camera works great. If this helps someone.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] gokart2:
So I realized my problem (I think, been playing around). Noticed the "add on" text, and that v2.3 was only about 200mb. Therefore the 2.3 needs to be dirty flashed over the original release.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Barabba11:
even after flashing mini boot loader for MM this ROM don't let SIM card connect to network. It has only english language with latin letters, it has a very boring handsfree activator in the beginning which it is impossibile to close, it has bloat even if I used debloater suggested, it doesn't look rooted (but I didn't test it deeply).

It looks to me not a good work unfortunately.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bytes2bits:
I assure you it IS "good work". It clearly says in the op that it's a STOCK deodexed rom. Furthermore it's rooted and works fine on Sprint. And finally, there's a tool in the op to debloat it if that's what you desire. Perhaps you should create your own custom rom or at least respect the developer who created this rom for others to use.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Barabba11:
thank you for your work, this is my experience, sorry. The biggest problem is that the baseband dind't work, I can't use the phone at all.

As for the rest, why leave Freehands activation.. it takes 10 minutes after the first boot to leave me use the phone, even with debloat it still. ANyway I moved to a lollipo stock and phone back to work
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bytes2bits:
It's not my work. I was only standing up for the developer.

Are you sure you're flashing this on a Sprint phone? I didn't have any issues but I did flash it quite some time ago. I'm currently on a much later baseband.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Barabba11:
Yes, on recovery it shows G900P

I don't know which baseband you have, but when I let the LL stock G900PVPU3BOK4_G900PSPT3BOK4_G900PVPU3BOK4_HOME upgrade itself to MM the baseband stopped working. It update it to the most recent MM (it updated maybe 4 times, very boring). So I had to go back to LL.

I don't know how a Samsung/android phone is made, it looks really complicated, I've never found a guide that descrives it clear.. maybe there is something before bootloader, like the "super boot loader" and maybe there there is a sim lock for my phone.. but it works with Stock LL, I don't know what to say.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] scottyfreeball:
Hi everyone, I know this is an older phone now but it's still my daily driver. I just switched to this Rom from Lineage because I felt like there was a good deal I was missing out on by not using a Stock-ish TW rom. After the switch from Lineage to this ROM I get about 8,000 more points in Antutu, the camera looks much better, UI feels smoother, and everyone sounds much more clear with the HD Voice feature. Also I love the Ultra Power Saving mode, can make the phone last days in an emergency.

I hope someone can help though, I'd like to know if there is any kind of way to pick-and-choose the features in these Add-on packs? I would like everything through The Add-on 2.0 pack EXCEPT:

Version 2.0 additions

- Camera modified so flash works with low battery

- Safe volume threshold nag removed

- Music volume skip mod

- Long press back to kill current app

- Record button added to incall

- Shutter Sound toggle added to Camera settings

- Moderate sound boost modification

- Flashlight option active in display settings for volume buttons

So I'd like everything up through 2.0 except for the "Music volume skip mod" and the "Moderate sound boost modification". The reason being now every time I use the volume button to turn on my flashlight it also decides to start my music player. The two features conflict with each other. Also the sound boost modification goes way overboard. If I put my volume up to anything past 75% the speaker starts distorting heavily and it kinda sounds like I'm gonna blow the tiny little speaker.

I'm not a fan of most of the features introduced from 2.1 through 2.3, so I'd like to simply avoid those.

Lastly, a little unrelated, but I'm hoping there is a Zip I can install to remove the "S Finder" and "Quick Connect" option bar in the Notification center without installing Xposed framework. They just take up screen space, would love to get back that screen real estate for the notifications.

Any help is immensely appreciated!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Barabba11:
I would suggest you to switch on Nougat, performance and services are even better
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] scottyfreeball:
Update! So after a google search I found a ZIP I could flash to restore the stock Volume levels to the device. It's also made by the original author tdunham. You can find it as well here:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2782062

Not as much luck on disabling the "Music volume skip mod". If anyone knows how to disable that one it would be much appreciated!

Issues with MMS on WIFI

I love this rom! Been using it for awhile now and everthing works great except I can't seem to receive or send MMS when connected to WIFI. I always have to turn off WIFI and then it works fine.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix that?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bytes2bits:
Try Textra. That seemed to get around that issue for me. Not a fix but a solid work around.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] drakkahn:
I only use Textra and it doesn't work. Is there something in the settings I need to change to make it work?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bytes2bits:
There are several different settings under mms on textra. You'll have to experiment. I know it worked for me on this rom. Actually I didn't have a problem with any of the text apps including the stock one.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] drakkahn:
Thank you. I thought I had adjusted the settings before, but there was one I missed: Prefer WIFI needs to be checked for the Sprint network.

Snapchat

Is there a way to get snapchat to work on this?

Tried using Root-switch, didn't work

Also tried the "BlueStack method" here:

https://medium.com/@jerrygoyal/run-snapchat-on-rooted-phone-with-xposed-framework-2018-41b9b8b4976a

But it appears snapchat now prevents the app from running on emulators

Otherwise the ROM is working fine :good:

Hi,

Yes, indeed it took me 20 minutes, but aftwerwards it's what I've got on screen:

Hands Free Activation

Welcome!

We will now activate your device.

Contacting the network.

Please Wait

Emergency call..

I'm using SM-G900P (Galaxy S5 Sprint) in UK. What's wrong ? :/

EDIT: I've noticed there's English, Spanish, and some three Asian languages supported for localisation, which means issue above is not important if I can't pick Polish language. Is it possible with this ROM, or have I to try another one (and does any other ROM supports European languages) ?

OF6 to PK1 mini bootloader

I was on OF6 firmware and flashed the PK1 mini bootloader, then TWRP, followed by the ROM. It is not booting, it made the start sound and is just flashing the Samsung logo. Been about 30 minutes and it is hot. Is it not recommended to update to PK1 from OF6?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] godofsalt:
True ! However, this actually is Downgrading from stock. xxxxQD1 is the actual LAST Firmware put out. Can find it here at XDA, if not, head to Sammobile. They do have it, its large, and slow, unless you fork over $$$ to be a Premium Member...
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] gza036:
I've noticed that "air wake up" is always active, even if I turn it off in the settings.

Air wake up is really annoying to me, (screen turning on randomly thinking I've done the wave "gesture") and probably draining the battery.

Any idea how to fix that?

edit: sorry, fixed it, it was an app: Kin screen

Does the ir blaster still work
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Octaved:
The IR blaster works, ROOT however is non-existent. I flashed the SuperSU.zip off chainfire's website and it bricked the phone, so I wiped system/data/caches, flashed Supersu again, then flashed this rom and it worked! I would like a way to odex if possible, anyone know how? I tried the universal odex script but it said "Odex not possible for this rom"

SIM locked / Invalid SIM

I installed this ROM, got it working just fine, pulled UICC (SIM card) from the old device (original to that device) then installed it in this new device (I did not get the original UICC for this device). Upon reboot, I forced an "Update Profile" and "Update PRL". After restart, device connects to Sprint LTE,

then after a minute or so I get an error: "The SIM card has locked" and the device will only connect at 3G

. All other device functions are fine (except auto screen rotate, but I'll figure that out later). I can send/receive SMS/MMS, connect to 3G, etc. No other issues.

My understanding is that the UICC for a Galaxy S5 is tied in Sprint's system to a specific device (from manufacture), and also the UICC is only used for LTE connectivity. It is also my understanding that someone in the Sprint back office will have to tie the old device's UICC to the new device in the Sprint system for the profile update to work correctly. The Sprint S5 doesn't use a SIM card per se. The UICC is used only for LTE connectivity. You basically cannot pull a Sprint Galaxy S5 SIM card and put it in another device an go on your way. My understanding is that a back office Sprint tech has to tie the existing UICC to the new device. My understanding is that this is not a generic provision.

I chatted with Sprint CS today. After a bit, I was ported to a 2nd person (Technical Team). She had me ##72786# to provision the device. Still no connectivity to LTE. She wants me to go to a store, thinking bad SIM or slot.

If I go into a Sprint store and ask them to install a blank SIM card and provision it (basically make it connect to 4G), are they going to blacklist the device because it is rooted? I'd sure like to settle this issue without handing the device over to someone else. Any other hints?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
The Sprint store will not have one for it. They only carry them for new devices. I have been through that circus more than once with these idiots. You have to have it come from corporare, which is another pita. They are not allowing certain device to activate on their network. The note4 is the oldest aloud to still be activated. I spent 3 days and about 6 hrs, one the phone just to get a sim for this note4 I currently use.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jdrotert:
I have spent several hours with corporate already, and they want me to go to a store to get a UICC. They insist that my UICC (they incorrectly call it a SIM card) is configured correctly on their end to my replacement's IMEI. I insist that the UICC has to be paired to a specific device. and to get someone that understands this. What wording/terminology do I need to to use to impress on these idiots that I just need a UICC for this device? Can't some tech at corporate update my UICC or a blank UICC over the air?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
They can, but it seems like everyone you talk to over there is some type of so called tech.. Every company has more than one level of tech support.. You need the upper tier support to get it done... There is nothing in the store, that Corporate can not do as well.. Good luck.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] godofsalt:
Yep... Been there, Done that...

I tried many ways to have my Spare S5 work properly, with only using 1 Sim card, for both phones.

The SM-G900P is/was used with Sprint, Boost and Virgin Mobile.

I have been with Virgin Mobile since the S3 came out!

The spare is from actually for Sprint. Contacted them and really got no where. Told that they don't have these older Sim Cards...

Same with Virgin....

Wish I had Real path to follow, but have been here and am waiting to see if you can get it working!

Keep us in the loop pls
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
From the time I called them to actually getting the sim for this Note 4 about 10 days.. Their plan is simple. They want us to ditch the old phones, and pay for those over priced POS, that is full of bloat, that can not be removed easily, and want total control over what you do with a device you pay for. Fine in the end I will go that route, but only buy used on line...
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] godofsalt:
So, I take it, that you were unable to get a new Sim card?

That Is a huge Truth? (meaning "They" (any carrier) wants everyone to replace a decent working phone (or Fruit) every 12 - 18 Months!!!

As long as I don't have issues with the sum card.... Should be good for a few years! Have enough Parts to rebuild a couple! Plus, can't say how many Screens I have replaced for friends /family.

Was hoping that you were able to get a new cars!

(pls-really did want to upgrade to Note 10. However, It's been a while, still in Sticker Shock!!!!)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
I do have my sim. I'm using it now. But it took a lot of BS to get it.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] godofsalt:
Well good for you!!

Guess i better get back at trying to get one Myself. However, my issue , is that the phone is actually locked to Sprint! so being on Virgin, is the issue. But, Have not needed, the Spare S5.....

yet..
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
If the phone was not reported lost, stolen, damaged, or not paid off. Then there should be no reason why you can not get one.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] godofsalt:
Well, I know for fact, that I have been getting the run around on this! I have Sim that works, Wanted a 2nd, for my Spare S5. Now, I see or at least can understand the BS, that I have gotten.

Virgin Mobile USA is Gone within 2 months (Received a Text From Virgin! In short, all accounts in good standing, are being moved to Boost Mobile, another one, Under Sprint! )

So in short, I will be looking into this matter. Might actually go into a local store, and see what they can do for me. Really not wanting to get a new phone, but some of the "Fine Print" says that the billing will also change! They said some to the fact that the Price should go down... Yeah, like a couple of bucks. No major "savings" ....

Plus, the actual dates, are wide open, from basically Now, through February, All done by 1st week in March!

what a pain this is going to be!

Guess I need to look into newer Boost APN Flash! Not really sure what the future holds at present.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
Good luck. Sounds like you are taken s bigger screwing then me.

Problem after Flash SM-G900P

Hello ,

I followed the method to flash my samsung SM-G900P and at the end it gave me the following message Welcome! preparing your device for first-time use this may be take 3 or 4 minutes and restarts in a loop.

Hi

It will take around 25 min to finish
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] reagan84:
Sorry... I am late to the game on this... I am 67, and it has been 4 years since I played around with my phone and installing modem, boot, and all the other files into the right partitions via loading files into the right spot using my command prompt... or by installing/flashing roms with odin or adb.. though both are still on my computer.. Point is.. I forget how I did everything..

My phone... Galaxy S5.. with Textnow Lollipop mod Rom... I just installed TWRP yesterday... and for some dumb reason wiped dalvik cache and hit the button even after the no operating system warning... So.. need to find a rom to install.. I found this post about Marshmallow. and figured, why not just install Marshmallow 6.0 instead of Lollipop 5.0.

So, to my question...

If I understand correctly, to install this version 2.3 mod... I have to already have Marshmallow runnning. by installing a stock Sprint Marshmallow Rom.. Do, I then have to root or unlock that stock sprint Rom once it is flashed so that I can update to this deodexed Marshmallow.... or can I just flash this 2.3b version without having to do anything after flashing the stock sprint rom.

And... does it have to be a Sprint Stock Rom.. or can it be any Marshmallow version such as a CyanogenMod 13 (Marshmallow)

Thank you.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
Best bet, if you have not already done so. Is to re Flash the stock firmware, reroute, re install TWRP then you're rom.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] godofsalt:
Very good to do!

"Stock" Marshmallow" (providing you get the Latest file) will update your phone, coming from L-pop. Which Is the correct way to go.

Then of course, need to flash a Recovery. From there, you can move to... Well what ever you would like.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] reagan84:
---------- Post added at 08:36 PM ----------

[/COLOR]

So, I should 1.) Flash Stock Sprint S5 Marshmallow... 2.) Root with CF 3.) install TWRP 4.) Then flash with this deodexed Marshmallow mod?

Right? or no need to root?

Thanks.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
Flash stock Marshmallow, Install TWRP via Odin, then root with SuperSu. Read instructions.. You might have to install a stock debloaded rom before the mod.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] reagan84:
If I flash the latest (the last one) S5 stock Sprint Marshmallow Rom QD1 and then flash this PK1 2.23 Vers. Deodexed Rom... Will that work? Will the result be that I still have QD1 or will it bump the phone back to PK1?

Thank you.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] doubledragon5:
Firmware will be PK1. Bootloader I believe will be QD1. You can not roll back bootloader once you updrade.
