[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
FlashFire is now pre installed correctly, so it won't crash anymore. The same goes for Chrome.

Some new updates for the OTA Updater, but I'm still sorting out the hosting issues for the updater engine. Should have it working by this weekend.

But the more major new feature....

I've started beta testing the Pixel Launcher. It comes with the little Google search pill instead of the search bar, and seems to be pretty stable other than the wallpaper and settings issues, which I have an idea how to fix.

Tomorrow's update will include the integration of what (should) fix the wallpaper issue, as well as some fixes for the SystemUI that will increase the lock screen timeout so that the face lock can actually be used comfortably.

I should also say that you cannot receive this update through the OTA system due to some quota issues with Microsoft Azure, which powers the OTA engine. The update should be flashed manually with FlashFire, using an additional wipe of everything but the internal storage.

I'll see if I can get in contact with Microsoft and see if they'll increase my server quota, although the possibility of them doing so is very small. Otherwise I may look into hosting the ROMs and the OTA engine with RomHut as well as hosting the ROMs on AFH.

[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] I just fixed the wallpaper issue I took the wallpaper file from data/system/users/0/ and renamed it to default_wallpaper.jpg and put it in the framework apk

apparently I didn't need the data folder in my last 2 wallpaper fixes and I also didn't need the launcher either
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Have you tested this? The last one kinda didn't work until I did a factory reset in recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
Let me test it I [MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION]

[/COLOR [MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] yeah but wasn't the last time you applied it the time where you messed up? ok tested it it popsup with a screen that says user fault upload mode
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I thought I messed it up because the updater didn't wipe /data but I fixed it in today's build and the issue is still there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
What did you do to fix chrome?

---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 PM ----------

@AptLogic Im trying to put features of the latest update into the last update 10w1d1b
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I used a trick I learned when I was compiling the OTA updater... I opened the chrome apk in 7zip (or steamroller of you use Linux), and copied the lib/armeabiv7a contents into the lib folder of the ROM, then put the Chrome apk in the /system/app folder as normal.

Also if you want to keep your settings why not just remove the delete_recursive("/data"); and package_extract_dir("data", "/data"); lines in the updater script of the newer version and dirty flash the new system with no wipe commands?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] Yay it works now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Glad to hear it :D

Just noticed the recents always remains empty in dialer also no mater who I favorite from my contacts none show up on favorites screen ....

---------- Post added at 07:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 AM ----------

Also I have noticed that since installing this ROM and using Google cam and quickcam and a few others that when using flash pictures turn out extremely dark no clue why this would be happening at all but def a hope u can figure out the issue there unless happens to be just me lol .....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Do you have HDR off?

I've noticed the recents problem in the dialer as well. I'll probably start working on rebuilding the dialer from Google's source this weekend and we'll see what happens.

Anyone noticed any more problems with the Pixel Launcher?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
I haven't yet flashed new version this was all on the "fixed" original version ....

HDR can be on or off makes no difference . It's almost like the the flash is out of sink with the actual capture of the image because the preview shot always looks correct as in the flash does its job but in the captured image it's as if there are no lights in the room .....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah I can see what you mean.

The attached image was taken in a full light environment but it looks like I had all the lights off.... I might end up either replacing the camera app or taking another look at the binaries that handle the camera.

Bottom line I'll look into it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
I took a test picture and it looks fine [MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] took it in a classroom with the florescent lights
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Vesnyx:
How did you flash the System UI APK. I'm trying to flash it on my current ROM but I keep getting FC. I replaced the existing UI in priv-app with it and chmod 644. Do I need to use the framework res as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
You need to patch the services.jar file in framework.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Vesnyx:
Is the services.jar cross-compatible with both UI's? Or do I need to replace both every time?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yes it's cross compatible. I used it with TouchWiz while I was still testing it and it worked fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Vesnyx:
Just want to be 100% sure, its 644 permissions for the jar right? Also, what exactly were the patches? Whenever I check the logcat for the SystemUI crashes I have this:

E/AndroidRuntime( 1236): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to create service com.android.systemui.SystemUIService: java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: registerReceiver from com.android.systemui asks to run as user -1 but is calling from user 0; this requires android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL

and these:

E/AndroidRuntime( 1236):	at com.android.systemui.keyguard.KeyguardViewMediator.setup(KeyguardViewMediator.java:490)

E/AndroidRuntime( 1236):	at com.android.systemui.keyguard.KeyguardViewMediator.start(KeyguardViewMediator.java:538)

E/AndroidRuntime( 1236):	at com.android.systemui.SystemUIApplication.startServicesIfNeeded(SystemUIApplication.java:124)

E/AndroidRuntime( 1236):	at com.android.systemui.SystemUIService.onCreate(SystemUIService.java:31)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I don't exactly remember the permissions but 644 sounds right. The patch is a little hard to explain so I'll use an example:

Think of the new SystemUI as a heart transplant. What the services patch does is act like a "medication" that makes the system accept the new UI. Otherwise the services file rejects the UI because it's not signed by Samsung.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Vesnyx:
Ah, I see. It's an issue with the application signatures. That's what I figured as well from the logcat. The UID didn't seem to have been properly applied. I'll try it later. Then, I'm moving on to try Good Lock.

[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] Google camera photosphere crashes the app

I installed http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/camera/camera-2-7-008-release/ and photosphere works
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Hmm... I will look into updating the camera. That could be the problem, I don't know for sure yet.

Attached is a photo that I took in the dark with my flash ON.

Also sorry I didn't do any development today.. I've had a busy day and only just got a free minute-- at 9:30 at night! I'll try to make up for it tomorrow when things are less busy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] I don't see the attachment
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Just updated the post.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] works for me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] woah that is weird same thing happens to me
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah I'm thinking it may be a timing issue from the time the flash goes off to the time the camera actually takes the photo. I'll look at the source code tomorrow and see if I can find something.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
Kinda what I thought since same result with 5 different camera apps ... Thank you though for looking into it fella
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] I noticed when it focused on things it had proper timing though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Weird.... Has anyone had this issue with X?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
but it doesnt always turn on flash at the right time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Oh well that sounds like our problem right there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=7597286]AptLogic[/MENTION] but when I turned auto flash off it got fixed I guess

Also Hdr off
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Okay now it's getting complicated! I'll get to it right away tomorrow, it's on my whiteboard with a nice red circle around it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
No I had exactly zero issues on the latest version of x that **** was on point .... This is a wip but has already won its place as my DD ....Camera issue is kinda a big one but I'm sure u will have it hashed out soon .... Mine produces a dark image no matter what options I use or what app I use but only when using the flash pictures are fine when not using flash. Back on my s3 many Roms had this issue tho now that I think about it ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
[MENTION=3108410]pinheaD420[/MENTION] well x ROM removed unnecessary features and didn't add new features.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
So a preliminary code review reveals something pretty interesting:

This commit included a "fix for the camera bug", which is weird because I'm pretty sure the bug was fixed after the release of X.

The commit date for this "fix" was only five days ago, while the bugfix for X was about a month ago.... so I'll see about putting the files from X in AptOS and we'll see what happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
Yea I know. Apt had asked if anyone had issue on x my response was kinda in regards to his question .I had zero issues on x even with all the "add-ons" and mods including many Xposed modules. Zero camera issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Okay I found the issue: the libraries necessary for the Google Camera to operate correctly were not present in the lib directory in the system. An experimental patch to the issue has been tested with positive results, and the patch will be coming in today's build!

Thanks everyone for their input, we've got another bug squashed :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
Your awesome fella ! Side question will Xposed work at all on this ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
It should as long as you use the correct variant.. speaking of....

Xposed is slated to enter the beta versions starting with next week's builds ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
I have the version that worked for me on x I'm guessing same version should work on this ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
10w4d1b has been released OTA!

To get it you MUST use the OTA updater app, and to do so you must change a value in build.prop (otherwise it won't work anymore):

Change the value of ro.ota.manifest to "http://aptget2.azurewebsites.net/BEGONIA/fota/fota.xml" (without the quotes), and then run the updater as normal.

The full firmware package will be uploaded soon :)

ADVISORY: You have to install THIS UPDATE TO THE OTA UPDATER (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fi...w.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862708728
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah it should work.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Try installing the APK from AFH and see if it says "do you want to update this existing application?"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
I seen the link for the app on page 10 I hadn't ever installed it I assumed it came pre installed .but at bottom of that post it said not to download it or something ....I just got it tho I'm guessing install and then update ? How to I change those values u said about ?

---------- Post added at 03:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 AM ----------

Actually pretty confused by this ota update process lol there's a link then says update and with another grayed out link ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
No I mean the one on the bottom of page 16..

And you change the values using the buildprop editor from the playstore but you don't need to if you flashed the full firmware and not the OTA package, the changes are already built in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
So just install app then and run
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yes. It should work then.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
Just ran and says not compatible with this ROM contact ROM Dev ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
The hell... that should only display if the build.prop edits weren't made, and they're hardcoded into the firmware..... are you sure you flashed the full firmware package and not the OTA?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
I download the link in op about a hour ago BEGONIA-klteatt-10w4d1b.zip

Did full wipe and flashed just set it up and installed ota app and got that msg did I miss a step lol

---------- Post added at 04:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 AM ----------

OK some reason it's still showing me on build 9w7d4b witch is what I had just came from going to redownload and try to flash again I guess ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah that would explain the issues you've been having.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
OK so 3 downloads 3 full wipes and 3 flash attempts still on same build 9w7d4b

Flashfire performs wipe then says installing ROM for roughly 5 seconds then "..." And reboots to original ROM just wiped .....

---------- Post added at 05:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 AM ----------

Just redownloaded again going to try flashing without wipe and see what happens .... I guess worst case I'll have to start over again lol

---------- Post added at 05:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 AM ----------

Flashed again with no wipe and it said installing 5 seconds and reboots and made zero changes ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Sounds like an edify error.. I'll look into it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
So after that the version in op didn't work I tryd flashing 10w2dxx forget last number it flashed but once it booted advert 20 seconds it went to your bootanimation vibrated and then would take me back to beginning of start up menue. So I started over this time I flashed 10w1d1b I think and it did the same exact thing just kept running for 20 seconds and then going to boot animation so eventually after trying several more times I eventually just restored my back up of xrom ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Nope... not an edify error, ran it through the syntax checker and it said the script is fine.

-was gonna say flash 10w2d but you already tried-

Has anyone else had this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
Will try now but I always do wipe first learned that lesson the hard way ....

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 PM ----------

so just flashe version you just link same result ..... flashs boots an then just keeps going back to bootanimation ...... super lame i ont unerstand what the hell is happening here .....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah I'll try flashing from scratch in about an hour or two and see if I can figure out what happening.. sorry it's not working all too well
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
kewl man .... no worries fella its not that big a deal ill keep flashing an testing till this phones a paper weight ....

---------- Post added at 04:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

ok so i figured id try doing factory data reset from recovvery and it actuallly fixed what ever the issue was so now how do i get from this build to the newstt build can i just flash newst buil or o i need to use ota app ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Just flash the newest build manually.

OH CRAP I KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS LMAO there was a wallpaper "fix" in some earlier 10w versions that made the phone randomly reboot after flashing. That's why you kept having problems earlier. (The issue was fixed in 10w4d1b so you should be good now)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] pinheaD420:
lol ok well atleast im not crazy yet . so even on this build it will not flash the 10w4d1b it says flashing then before it says what its flashing it reboots i have downloaed it on my phone and on laptop both ways produce same result

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br1battaglia:
Hello everybody!

Actually I'm using the Android Revolution HD 12 and I would like to flash the ViperOne 6.0.0 ROM. The problem is my firmware version is 2.10.401.1 and I have S-ON.

I've flashed the ROM, but, obviusly, when I turned on my phone, it booted in bootloader mode.

I downloaded the RUU from the HTC site, it detected there was an avaible update, but it didn't work (Error 112: signature error). So I decided to extract the RUU.zip (following https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64299817&postcount=3), rename the file, put it in the SD card ad flash throught download mode. At that point phone shows this message: "Failed: -2, 12: fail to flash via downloadzip".

I know probably it is a silly question, but I have always used Samsung phones and I don't know what I should do. Can you give me any advice to solve my problem?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
Thank you for taking the time to review the readme thread. It's frustrating to try to offer support to users who skip that step and expect us to re-iterate what is already offered there.

What RUU did you attempt to install? Version number is important here, as you can upgrade a certain distance via RUU and then must use the OTA after that (upgrading from firmware 3.x to 4.x requires an OTA install).
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radamenenthil:
I had somewhat the same problem this weekend, I used a different RUU (with the same CID) and the flashing worked, though I wasn't trying to do the same thing as you
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br1battaglia:

My CID is H3G__402. Could it be the cause of my problem? If it's affermative, should I find an RUU who supports my CID or can I change the CID and flash the zip file I already have?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] computerslayer:
Take another look at the readme thread, particularly the post (#3) on RUUs. Your phone SKU must match the SKU of the RUU.

Follow the instructions on the thread to determine your SKU and then download the appropriate RUU.

Since you are S-ON, keep in mind that you can not jump straight to installing Android Nougat - you can flash up to Marshmallow (3.xx.xxx.xx), but will have to update via OTA to Nougat (4.xx.xxx.xx)
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
Quick question. Is it worth getting a G4 Plus or G5 Plus and replacing a Galaxy S5? The S5 has had it's bootloader cracked and is now unlockable if you have the right version of it. The Specs on the S5 seem to be a bit better than the G4 or G5 plus, but I like the features of Moto's. This device would be for my sister, who is in no way a power user. I do all her technical stuff for her. One advantage of the Moto's is they will be updated to Nougat where as the S5 will be done at MM, I think. Secondly the unlocking of the Moto bootloader is crazy simple and the S5 is a bit more involved. Any opinions are appreciated. Thank you.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] cerberusss:
Go for a Nokia 6 or G5 plus.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
I would wait until tests of both devices are published.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Hari Haran:
Galaxy s5 is seriously an aged device with ****tiest UI on top and lags ****! Even moto E is better in ui performance than it! Better get the g5+ variant! Releasing on March 17th
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
I agree, but the Spec's on the older SG5 are not the bad compared to the G5 Plus. It's not like the G5 Plus totally destroys the SG5. I do like the clean Moto interface and the Moto actions. Biometric unlocking is cool too. I am leaning towards the G5 Plus but wanted to see what others thought as well.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] catsruul:
I really wouldn't get an S5 unless new. The majority of S5s out there are refurbs or used, and even then they cost upwards of $200. IF you CAN get it new for under $200, pick one up. Custom ROMs are aplenty for it and it has better hardware than the G4/G5 (SD801, better camera, waterproofing, etc.).

The G5 should get Android O later this year, even given Lenovo's spotty track record on updates.

The G4 won't get O unless through custom ROMs.

Age also matters. I would say that the G5 would be a little better durability wise given its metal construction, but I also don't know how old your sister is.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] robn30:
My original post might have been confusing, she currently has the S5. We are considering getting her the G5 Plus. She is not techie and wouldn't benefit in any way from a custom ROM. She wouldn't know how to do anything with custom firmware.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] catsruul:
Ah OK, makes sense. Yeah, then I would go with the G5 Plus.

Personally, I think Lenovo dropped the ball with the Plus as the standard G has a removable back and battery, while the Plus does not.

The G4 has a removable back, and while it technically does not have a removable battery it can be removed with a few screws, connectors, and battery adhesive. So, in the long run, I would definitely prefer the G4.
