[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Today's update has been released! 27w2d1b

Full ZIP: https://github.com/coretechsystems/...ownload/27w2d2b/BEGONIAXP-klteatt-27w2d2b.zip

Changelog:

Removed Preinstalled Xposed, it is now available as an add-on

Removed a redundant Calculator package

Replaced the CM Gallery with a source-built gallery (in testing)

Added new bootanimation, fixed the stuttering issue.

Updated Google Apps to OpenGApps-20170611

Replaced the fx File Manager with MiXplorer

Upgraded FlashFire to 0.57

Upgraded GBoard to 6.2.37.154908781

Upgraded WebView to 59.0.3071.92

Upgraded Messages to 2.2.075

Upgraded Contacts to 2.0.9

CRITICAL NOTE FOR OTA UPDATER USERS:

A bug in the OTA updater causes it to open FlashFire but not include the flash action. You have to add this manually, the ZIP file can be found in the OTAUpdates folder in your Internal Storage.

If there is more than one OTA.zip, choose the one with the highest number (for example OTA-1.zip), mount /system read/write, and then flash.

This will be fixed in the next update to the OTA updater app.

Also if your password/screen lock is missing after the update, this is due to the installer wiping the Dalvik Cache during the update, just re-enable it and you should be all set (this may also occur with WiFi passwords, otherwise everything should be fine)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
The update did not show up in the OTA Updater, but I was able to flash it in Flashfire, wiping Dalvik Cache in the process. Other than losing the lockscreen and WiFi password, everything seems to be working fine!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Which version did you update to? Check your build number in the settings, if it was AAT2T, then that was the fixed version of the update from earlier today.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
I am on AptOS 2.4 Explorer - Build AAT2S, does that mean I need to reapply the update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
No, its not necessary for you to re-apply the update. Its just weird because I tested the update package right after I released it and I was getting issues with the Play Store, SystemUI, and Messages app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Ah. I have just noticed that the Play Store does not launch, and the Messages app is not on my homescreen. I also got a SystemUI crash when I started my device. Should I apply the next version? :x
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah, you should. You can get it through the OTA app (you have to manually add the Flash action in FF tho). Be aware that it does wipe your device data, but it should fix the issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
It wipes my device data, meaning Dalvik Cache or the whole data partition?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
The entire data partition.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Alright, I've backed up some apps, now I can't see the update in the AptOS OTA app. I'll just install the full .ZIP you linked earlier. Thank you for responding so quickly :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
No problem, hope it works.. I'm gonna be updating tomorrow
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
I flashed the full zip, and everything works fine, including the Play Store and Messages app, as well as the new file manager, the source-built Gallery, and the new GBoard. Thanks :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I reverted the Gallery update lol, but glad everything works... the Messages app was a library issue during the app update, and the Play Store issue was probably due to the "dirty flash" type of update I tried with the first OTA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Can anyone that updated yesterday tell me if the backup/restore function is working now? I've yet to update and want to know if replacing the Backup adapters fixed the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Backup/restore function? Within Flashfire, or the OTA?

Also, heads up, the version of the Google Play Services you have in the ROM is either broken or outdated; trying to view my apps in the Play Store caused it to crash. I fixed this by downloading Play Services version 11.0.56, but this can't be fixed through the Play Store itself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Backup/Restore in the device setup when you first boot in.

Alrighty, I'll hotfix it today and release it asap, thanks!

Update: probably a library issue just like the Messages app... system-izing these Google Apps is a real pain lol

Update #2: The hotfix has been completed and tested, will be releasing shortly, this OTA increments the build number to 27w3d1b.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
The OTA Update 27w3d1b is here!

OTA: https://github.com/coretechsystems/...oad/27w3d1b/BEGONIAXP-klteatt-27w3d1b-OTA.zip

Full ZIP: https://github.com/coretechsystems/...ownload/27w3d1b/BEGONIAXP-klteatt-27w3d1b.zip

The update has been released to users who are currently running Build AAT2T-27w2d2b, and the OTA updater should only be used by users on that build.

The OTA updater will not wipe any device data except maybe screen locks and WiFi passwords.

Changelog:

- Critical hotfix for the GMSCore, fixing multiple bugs in the Google Play Store and Play Services.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] hectorbls:
Is the call log issue fixed on this update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
No, I'm working on it though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] zenrox:
system ui keeps crashing

I have reflashed aptos 3 times wipeing the s5 bolth times but the system ui keeps crashing making it imposable to use

help!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Which version are you trying to use?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] zenrox:
the BEGONIAXP-klteatt-27w3d1b version
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Try redownloading the ROM, it's possible that the zip you got is corrupted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] zenrox:
I just did that just now still gives a systemui stoped at start up of the rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] kenetix:
Good rom

Thanks for the latest update. I am trying new launchers out, and it looks almost 100% AOSP. The only thing I have a question about is the contacts. I can't make a quick call list. Any suggestion? I looked in Contacts and they have a star by their name, but they aren't in my favorites. Small thing, but thought I would ask. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
That's an issue with the dialer... I'm working on doing internal testing for a new one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
The OTA Update 27w5d1b is here!

OTA: https://github.com/coretechsystems/...oad/27w5d1b/BEGONIAXP-klteatt-27w5d1b-OTA.zip

Full ZIP: https://github.com/coretechsystems/...ownload/27w5d1b/BEGONIAXP-klteatt-27w5d1b.zip

The update has been released to users who are currently running Build AAT2T-27w3d1b, and the OTA updater should only be used by users on that build.

The OTA updater will not wipe any device data except maybe screen locks and WiFi passwords.

Changelog:

- Completion of Xposed Framework removal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
I was on AAT2T-27w3d1b, and updated to 27w5d1b using the OTA Updater. Phone just sits on the boot screen and does nothing. Clearing dalvik cache didn't help.

Is there a way I can recover the device without going back through the rooting guide and flashing my firmware? Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Unfortunately, no there is not a way to recover... I'm pulling the OTA as we speak and will be re-releasing it later today but this time it'll require a data reset. Xposed sems to have a problem with uninstallation on Samsung devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Ah, I was afraid of that...

Well, thank you for responding regardless. Should I use the latest full .zip you released when I go back up through the rooting process?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah. The full zip should work fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Updated to 27w5d1b.

I can't see any add-ons throught the AptOS OTA app. I need xposed for some apps and modules. how can I find it or flash it? Looking like those other issues I had are gone in this update
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I'm working on getting the Add-on service up and running, should be up by Monday (due to personal stuff)

In the meantime, you can get the flashable zip direct from the CoreTech OTA Server.

Also if you could run a SafetyNet check before installing Xposed that would be great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Fantastic thanks! I get a failed installation, failed to extract system/xposed.prop. Where is the apk though? Can't find it on your website. And I'll try the safety net thing

By the way, I still have the lockscreen bug that has the phone wake up in landscape mode then rotate. Not sure how to document it. It seems to only happen after a longer period of time. RAM management seems okay, but I will see how it manages over time!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I still haven't encountered the issue, but I'll keep a sharp eye out!

Hopefully we've got the stability bugs down.

Also PSA here: PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO UNINSTALL THE XPOSED FRAMEWORK!!! Attempting to will softbrick your device! Only do so by re-installing AptOS with a full zip after you have backed up your data!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Ah ****, sorry. I'll do the test next time I do a full wipe on the next build. Not sure if you saw my edits, but xposed failed to install, missing xposed.prop and also don't have the apk app.

Anything else I can test while my ROM is relatively fresh?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
You could try DivineBeats (which is not yet on the OTA server so you'll have to get it direct). Pretty sure it'll work but may as well make sure.

I'll take a look and fix the installer tomorrow if I have time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 here's the apk and here's the xposed zip by dklcdark https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3955895&d=1480698503
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Okay so technically the Add-on system is "up" now, but I have to make some fixes to the OTA app itself to keep it from crashing every time you try to look through the add-on browser.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
If someone can hunt down android.widget in the firmware that would be great... I think there is some issue with it that is causing some of the settings bugs and now the bug in the OTA app...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
So how is it going so far? :D I'm patiently waiting for 2.4.5 and wondered if i can do anything to help.

also i'm coming down from a PH2, will that be a problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
No, PH2 won't be an issue.

Most of the bugs at this point are just waiting for me to try and replicate in an emulator with a source-built Android build. After that's done (which should he some time next week), I'll try my best to see how to fix them. Right now I'm thinking a majority of the bugs are due to a faulty library because all the current bugs are a problem with Android's ListView function in the android.widgets library.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Taking a peek at my RAM usage, I'm seeing a mildly alarming uptick in system RAM usage. Its not too bad, but if you're one to load your phone with a lot of apps or if you play resource-intensive games a lot, just keep that in mind. I'm pretty sure a simple system restart every once in a while keeps the issues at bay, but eventually it comes back (I leave my phone on for 5-7 days at a time).

I'll look into this tomorrow, and I'll be internally testing a possible major bugfix tomorrow as well.

:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Glad you noticed something! For me its maybe every 3 days? My most used apps are probably Spotify, Facebook messenger, and Slide for reddit with some snapchat and Facebook in there. The combination of Spotify with snapchat or facebook messenger can be deathly, causing a system reboot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Okay so that bugfix was basically a replacement of the framework.jar file in /system/framework... In testing it did not work at all, but I'm going to try "splicing" bits and pieces of both the original and new framework files together in the hopes of getting it to work.

Just to be clear, this is all to just replace one small part of the system framework (android.widget).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
is that whats causing most of the bugs?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I'm 99% sure it is, because most if not all of the bugs have to do with the Android ListView engine, which is part of the android.widgets library.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Another update. I've been using CCleaner to clean the cache on my phone every few days and it really helps eliminate the slow downs. I know this shouldn't be the case because of the purpose of creating a cache in the first place, but it honestly works. Something to look into

Is DivineBeats or viper4android on the OTA updater yet? How do I get the newest OTA updater, mine is still broken
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Everyone's OTA updater is broken (at least for add-ons). Its caused by the same issue we're having with certain parts of the Settings.

I'm working on it, but I don't expect a fix for this stuff to be done until after release of 2.4.5 :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
so far can you list all the problems for me before i flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
Fingerprints don't work there is some cache issues you can't open up data in settings
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
so all i need to is clean my cache and i'm good?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] xdanilva:
yeah
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] kenetix:
Update?

My phone popped up a notification about a new build or update. Is there a browser link you could post so i can download it? I am trying to stay away from using data and my home internet is crap right now with all the storms we had. Thanks. And thanks for a good rom. It is real close to straight aosp.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Okay so I'm probably gonna go ahead and release 2.4.5 later today. Unfortunately I was not able to get rid of the settings or dialer bugs, but as an alternative I will be offering an additional flashable zip to replace the AOSP settings with TouchWiz.

Additionally, the next (and last) major release for AptOS will be version 2.5, coming this October. After that I will most likely have moved to a OnePlus device and all subsequent updates will be support updates (bugfixes, etc.), no new features will be added after October.

Thanks to everyone that has tested and used AptOS since its first release, its been fun developing for you guys. Links and OTA updates will be released in the next 4 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Alrighty, final release 2.4.5 is out! You will start seeing the update in your OTA updater app momentarily.

ZIP (EXPLORER): https://github.com/coretechsystems/...ownload/32w3d1b/BEGONIAXP-klteatt-32w3d1b.zip

Explorer users won't notice much of a difference, but these features are all-new for Release channel users!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
I am running the last Explorer build, and I do not see the update in my OTA. However, I do see this:

(see attachment)

It says I am running ROM version 8. Was that intentional?

Also, if I want to flash to the latest build, which .ZIP do I use?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yes I forgot to push the update through to the OTA updaters... The ROM version listed on the OTA app is simply for internal use, and the version number being listed as 8 is intentional.

If you want to flash the latest build, use the second zip. But before doing so, be aware that it will wipe all data during installation, final release versions like this do not offer a data-preserving update method.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Good to know, thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Before I update to the new build (congratz btw), are Xposed, V4A or Divinebeats, and the optional Touchwiz settings available on the OTA updater or flashable zips somewhere yet?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
The OTA updater's Add-ons feature is currently broken, but I will be uploading links for all of those by the end of the day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
Update through OTA

Hey there its me again!

I saw your recent post on the new update to the ROM, just wanted to the exact procedures on how to install the new ROM, thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Backup your data with an app like Titanium Backup, then flash the new update with Flashfire. If you are on the EXPLORER build, make sure to flash the second .zip, otherwise flash the first one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
I've tried multiple times to flash the update through flashfire, with no success, any workaround? Could it be because I haven't backed up my data? And how can I check if I am on the explorer build?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
You'll know if you're on an explorer build.

Are you sure you're selecting the "Mount /system Read/Write" checkbox when flashing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
I posted links for the Add-Ons in Post #1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
I did, and every time i attempt so nothing new changes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Try redownloading, the file may be corrupted (I've seen it happen many times)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] banditjackpotty:
Awesome! Will the TouchWiz settings zip also change the notification panel to the ugly TouchWiz theme?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
I have a question. Can you make a .zip to flash BACK from the TouchWiz settings? I just want to give one or two apps accessibility privileges, and once they have it I shouldn't have to give it to them again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah I'll work on it in the morning. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
Alright I took everyone's suggestions but still, no success. I've tried reinstalling flashfire multiple time, and have checked off the necessary boxes in flashfire, and have also redownloaded the files multiple times, but still no success. Anything else I can do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
Back up ALL your data, flash back to the prerooted Lollipop, making sure to also add a wipe in there, and then flash up to the new AptOS? That's all I can think of, but you may want to wait for AptLogic first before doing that. That would be the process I follow anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
Tried that, but everytime I do so my device only wipes and not flash the actual firmware even though it reads that it is installing the firmware
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] :
At that point, I would flash with Odin back to the Kitkat rom, and then root and flash up to Lollipop
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mr.Moisha:
Newest ota not being applied?

I'm having the same problem as DragonS5. Downloaded the 1st and second zip. Went to flash zip / ota. Did the 1st one first. Nothing but a reboot. Same with the 2nd one.

I"m clueless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Okay it might be a problem with the package... I'll try repackaging the update when I get home.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mr.Moisha:
Inconvenience? I'm thrilled and happy you put this rom out. It's just what i've been looking for.

Kudo's!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
So I'm still a little stuck on the issue in the update package. It seems to just be a problem with the updater-script, so I will have to go in tomorrow and fix that. The fixed installer (as well as that Settings flashable) will be out before Monday. :)

Sorry its taking so long, I had some stuff to do today which took up most of my development time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mr.Moisha:
Time?

I'm not worrying. Enjoy some life. We appreciate your work here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
I Just read this part of the thread now exactly when it happened :silly:

also just confirming its happening on my rooted of3

will be on here refreshing like crazy for the hype

custom boot animations??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] siddharthrv:
Iam in rooted s5 stock i flashed aptos using flashfire...its shows installing os and within 10 sec reboots to s5 stock rooted os itself....then i flashed alliance rom tat is working perfectly...plz help me to flash apt os
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Yeah I just have to implement the fix for that and reupload the ROMs.. should be done later today.

Update: Finally got home and pushed the fixes. Re-uploading the new packages now as well as the AOSPSettings flashable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
So, should the rom be able to be flashed through flashfire now?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Should be able to now... just re-download it from the links in Post 1.

Also the flashable for the AOSP settings has been posted in Post 1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
Btw, forgot to ask, how do i install the touchwiz settings zip?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
Just flash it in FlashFire with the "mount /system read/write" option ticked. Everything else will be handled by the installer script.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
I know this is only hours after you posted it but this is the hands down cleanest bestest looking rom i had ever had in awhile, and thank you for that.

I just want to know if there is any way to raise the volume of my ringer to play my kick ass new ring tone?

Bc: of volume glitch all in all
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] dietrix1612:
Can you send screenshots from ROM?)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragonS5:
Hey I tried installing the TouchWiz settings zip like you said, unfortunately it's not installing again, it's just like the previous problem with the new room, anything else I can do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Z0N3D:
Finally, Here is promised screenies :D

All good.

Working wonderful. Thank you again for the wonderful work!

Help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Dartmouth:
Love it, works great!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Guicrith:
Do you have any version without gapps preinstalled, I have been google free for several months and prefer my devices without proprietary app stores.

I barely even use android apps and those I do are from apks.(K9 mail, IceCat, PPSSPP and RetroArch are pretty much all I use)

This is not meant to tell others what they should do, this is just my preference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] kingkoopa10:
question does this work well with the s5 active
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AptLogic:
It has not been tested on the S5 Active. I know for a fact that you'd need to replace the kernel after flashing, but I have no idea if it will be as stable on the active as it is on the regular S5 .
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] kingkoopa10:
thanks for the quick response
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Bao.NLQ:
Comfirm that work on s5 active g870a. Smooth and clean. Thank you so much. And waiting for new update for little bug fix. :)
