So that version will work for the ACTIVE variant? Just confirming, and this fixes the bug where using ROM slots wipes everything, right? Thanks, this will be my last question!
ROM slots doesn't wipe everything that I can remember I'm on my ObePlusOne my S5 is gathering dust in my drawer LOL. Yes that Safe strap will work for your active.
What exactly do you mean by wiping everything??
Hashcode put a post that said dont use ROM slots b/c it "DO NOT USE ROM-SLOTS YET. STILL DEBUGGING A MOUNTING ISSUE WHERE IT WIPES THE INTERNAL STORAGE."
@muniz_ri has updated Safestrap to use ROM slots furthermore I have ROM slot one running Pyrana ROM and I have Clinchrom running on stock slot.

Why not put ClinchL in stock slot?? I have enough back ups on my ex SD card. I don't have enough memory in my internal to have two Rom slots

I installed safestrap g900a kit Kat 3.75 also have busy box installed I'm running a g900a model but form said willl work for both s5 active I also put safestrap on my external SD card I reboot to recovery and create my rom slot 1 and leave my stock rom as is I don't want that one curupted when I reboot system in rom slot one though it just gives black screen and have to pull battery and active stock rom slot I thought other rom worked now? Any ideas thanks for all the great posts and topics love this site!
Someone please help me uninstall safestrap! So first of all, I do not know what version I have because the app is not installed anymore because I installed a new ROM a long time ago. I couldn't find out how to see what version was installed so I went ahead and tried to download 3.75 and opened it and clicked uninstall and it said sucessful but when I rebooted, the splash screen for safestrap was still there... And yes I have busybox installed. I have seen posts saying you have to uninstall it in non-safe mode. What does that mean? Thank you! (Odin is not an option, I need to do it from my phone)
You have no system to boot that's why you're stuck on the splash screen you'll need to Odin to stock then reroot you'll be able to use your backup then

yep I've had that problem it turns out my ex sd card was corrupted I bet that's what is happening with you as well. Even after I backed up all files on computer and formatted ex sd card I had same problem. I bought a new ex sd card BOOM problem solved.
