Im thinking that update blocked downgrading to 4.4 so in other words. Your most likely out of luck. As a last option that I can think of is try flashing the Ph3 firmware in Odin so your on the older Version of marshmallow. If that even fails then I'm afraid they have blocked downgrading completely. If you can get it to flash back to the ph3 firmware that runs marshmallow then let it boot into system so it's fully loaded then try the test firmware so whatever patch they added to prevent is gone. Its worth a shot. I would try myself but then I'd be stuck where your at and don't have another device to test with. Let me know the result though if you could. Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Shaden Stewart:
I'm able to flash the ph3 version of marshmallow I've done it before. But I can only get 3g instead or 4g lte. I'll try and keep y'all updated with my progress to help anyone else out
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Shaden Stewart:
No luck I couldn't get it to flash.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bjf189:
Seems this has been patched on that update then.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Shaden Stewart:
Do you have any idea on how I could get past this ?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bjf189:
I'm not fully sure but I think not. On marshmallow, Root is blocked. Without root it seems impossible. Odin fails to downgrade so I'm stumped. You could try asking around. Wish I knew more
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Shaden Stewart:
I'll see what I can do and if I find a workaround or something i will start a thread and post the link to it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bjf189:
Downgrading seems to be patched now

Alliance ROM on S903VL

Yes it is possible I just did it on my wife's phone. Just follow all the directions from OP. Then install Safestrap v3.75. This is my first posts so I can't post links, so just google "alliance rom 4.4.2 g900v" and look for a website called galaxys5root and download the one for g900v.

Extract the zip into a new folder using whatever file explorer you use. Delete boot.img. Go into META-INF > com > google > android and open updater-script using a text editor. Go toward the bottom of the file and delete the following line:

package_extract_file("boot.img","/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot");

Save the file. Go back into the folder you extracted everything to, highlight data, META-INF and system folders and zip them back up. Now reboot into safestrap, hit wipe option and swipe it. Goto install and choose your newly.created zip and flash it. Wipe Cache and Dalvic. Now reboot and you should see Alliance splash screen. It might take some time to boot so don't freak out. Now just change your APN to TRACFONE.VZWENTP. Good to go. So far everything works. Call, MMS, SMS, Data all good. Hope I explained this well enough. Also, I'm sure you could use any other g900v KK custom rom and.it should work if you modify the zip as I've shown. But I'm not a dev so don't quote me on that :P

HiddenMenu

Anyone have any insight if enter row 15 enter value leftrightupdownNG would NVRebuild? 903vl? *#0011#
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] bjf189:
I'm not sure what your asking but the *#0011# just brings up a black screen. Nothing to see or edit. Blocked I assume by Verizon.

Mine has 11xxxxx brings up service mode

Idk
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] u.s.marine:
I don't want this to sound like it's an easy task and I'm not sure an app such as terminal emulator even works the same as if you are rooted or entering commands as sh -su but my question is if the command is accepted such as in the pictures with no return argument then is it a temporary only while session is active or do you have to reboot phone after I chmod,chown and edit read write execute permissions?

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 PM ----------

If all arguments are listed in strings and under other applications as it seems to be then everything we need is there?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] u.s.marine:
Ref screen shot any guidance?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] u.s.marine:
So is this the patch where they to exclude *T files?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] u.s.marine:
The way I'm reading everything is %s is root as temp if I could better understand the arguments why could you not use temp root to edit as will show posting values edited but reading the argument it rewinds after session I am assuming but is there a way to edit while session open swap_root / old_new then pivot_root ? I have no clue what I am talking about or doing but makes complete sense in my head lol.

The things your saying are making very little sense and a bunch of gibberish. It's as if your a spamming bot.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] u.s.marine:
My apologies that was in ref to the hidden menu. That is how the HM reads with cat -v or ut-8. With that being said, does any of that make sense I figured since that how it pulled out it was a little mixed up but was just trying to make sense of it. I remember back in the day you could press back 2x then wait and menu would appear, I was curious if since that was pulled out if that was actually the row and value to enter to make the HM appear legible. Someone said they they only pulled up black screen with *#0011# but mine was the white menu service mode. The last bit under the email left right up down NG and the 15 seemed out of place along with 2x enter the value , 2x enter row just curious if that might be something

If you use the first stock rom released for the Samsung S5 G900V, which you can find linked HERE, then create a system.img and cache.img from THAT stock rom you won't have any application crashes after the factory reset in recovery mode.

From there I found an extremely debloated rom uploaded from 2014 with the same build number. I flashed that .zip after creating a rom slot with Safestrap.

From inside Safestrap > Extremely debloated but stable rom I then used Titanium Backup Pro to back up all user + system apps.

Then I flashed back to test rom. Then flashed system.img and cache.img back to G900V stock.

Then rooted that stock. Installed my Titanium Backup recovery files.

Then used Titanium Backup Pro to uninstall all apps not backed up.

The end product being an extremely lean/rooted SM-903VL running a very stable and clean G900V stock rom.

I used the rom from this guys thread linked below to use Titanium Backup to strip the apps from that lean and extremely debloated rom. You gotta hunt down the zip file somewhere else online, he had the thread shut down. It's not hard to find.

If you haven't yet fixed the issue with wifi passwords not saving. I've always had this issue when using the modems in test/service firmware. wpa_supplicant & secure storage were usually factors as well. I just forget where on the forums I found a fix for another device. The fix would be applied in a similar fashion.

You may want to take a look at this tool, one of the most valuable tools I've installed on my Polaris: 'QuickMenu' of Chinese origin. It replaces the startmenu on the windows logo, while the original windows startmenu is still available under 'Start'.

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-quickmenu-v2-7.html

Functions:

- Cascading StartMenu (fully configurable)

- Cascading Settings menu (windows mobile settings)

- TaskManager (easy switch and close functions from the startmenu)

- TaskSwitcher (create alt-tab shortcut to QM-active-next which you can map to a hardbutton)

- Hibernate/Suspend/Reboot from startmenu

- Execute ...

- SIP panel selector

- Bluetooth toggle (connectable, discoverable, off)

- Batterystatus (in percentage)

- Memorystatus (internal or memorycard)

There's no installer, unzip the archive to a 'quickmenu' folder in your program files and run the exe once. If you don't like it, delete the folder. The only issue I had with it on my previous device was that the 'Settings' menu which links to WM's personal, system and connection settings didn't work correctly, possibly because it was mapped to the 'Settings' function, in stead of the dutch 'Instellingen'. The rest of the functions worked fine.

My Polaris has an english system and QM works perfectly. Great little tool.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] sedde:
Indeed a great tool, but can you disable the battery status on the upper right corner ? It is messing with the task manager and i cant close or select which program i want.

I tried disabling it from the settings of the program itself, and the battery status gets removed, but i still cant see the task manager icon.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Sky740:
Go into Settings/Task Manager/Button tag and re-check the "Enable Quick Menu on Today Screen"

I'm working on porting the Samsung keyboard from my J727p right now. I managed to change the package name and make it installable. I have only one error left to solve and it should work. I need to know how to request the WRITE_SETTINGS permission for the app, and I can't figure out how to do it. Samsung's keyboard functions require this permission, and since I made it a user app, it gets denied a because of a security exception. If anyone knows how to request this permission, and how to set it up, then I'll have it working in a few hours. Until then I'm stuck. I've read the documentation on it, and it was no help at all. It doesn't tell you where, or how to write the code for the request. I've been trying to find an answer for 2 days now.

Forget the adb part, just check if fastboot recognizes your device and try the steps.

I think you can also install custom recovery without unlocking the bootloader. Ones that is done you can try to install your custom rom.
