Lost Hotspot Functionality Once I flashed this update I lost the ability to bypass Verizon's check to use the hotspot functionality. Now it keeps checking my account and wanting me to pay for the service. Is there anyway I can get around this again, as I was able to with basic root? I did...

I saw that it said only 3 hours of battery, but I got all my preferences set up and gave it a day or so and the battery leveled off to lasting about 8 hours. ---------- Post added at 10:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 AM ---------- Download GalleryVault, it seems to work the...

I recently flashed QB2 on my G-900V and since then I've noticed that when I watch videos on YouTube or use Google Play Music, headphones or not, the volume will drop and go back to where it's set. This is repeated for about 10-15 minutes and when I'm listening to Play Music I'll get the error...

If you're seeing that when the device first powers on in the top corner, I'd say just ignore it. I had that start showing when I unlocked my bootloader in August 2016 and the device has been working well since then. I would suggest for you to create a backup using Flashfire or similar while...

I am trying to get Wifi Calling activated on my rooted/unlocked bootloader Verizon S5. I have read that it is necessary to have the Verizon Login App active in order to get Wifi Calling to work. I think I deleted it with no backup and I'm wondering where I would be able to find an apk of the...

HD - Advanced Calling Issue I just upgraded to this build, but my only issue is that I do not have advanced/HD Calling anymore. When I go to activate it in settings, it says "Activate Later" & when I check into it, I'm told that I already have HD calling on my line. Any idea how to fix this?

I recently unlocked my bootloader & installed the deodexed 6.0 Stock ROM by jkruse. I saw that he had extra_toggles.zip which provided the flashlight toggle for 5.0. Would this .zip work if I was to flash it on 6.0 or is there another place I could find the flashlight toggle?

Facts: Rooted, Verizon Unlimited Data, Lollipop 5.0 BPB1 When I'm at work, college, and try to connect my laptop to the hotspot, the connection either does not happen or is disconnected/reconnects within seconds or half a second. I cannot maintain a constant connection, even when manually...

The hotspot function is not acting correctly, devices will constantly be disconnected and then reconnect. I've been able to troubleshoot the issue to my cell. When I rooted my cell I created a backup as in the directions of jrkruse on rooting 5.0. My question is if I'm using Safestrap...

Just this morning I noticed that I cannot maintain a constant connection for my laptop to my Verizon rooted S5 via hotspot. I opened the hotspot details on the cell and I can see the laptop constantly connecting and disconnecting every second or quicker. I just now started having this issue, but...

It is 15 I really love the S5, I've worked it to the bone using FoxFi and other apps for a few years and have been taking the last few months researching how to root and would just like the battery life back. Also, it isn't the battery itself, I just bought a new one no more than 3 weeks ago...

I successfully was able to root Lollipop 5.0 and then upgraded the ROM using these directions. I just noticed that my battery life is half or 1/3 of what is used to be previously. Are there any settings I can do to help or any other ROM that would work well? This is my 1st time rooting, so...

Thank you for your help, I was able to flash each of the .zip from that page and everything is working well. I'm even able to activate hotspot by just clicking the icon! (My main reason for rooting)

Thank you for the info. What you mentioned would all be done in Safestrap recovery, correct?

Forgive me as I am new to rooting and just used your guide to root my Verizon S5 BPB1 build. I would like to get these updates, but before I do anything I wanted to be certain of what to do. I downloaded the file VZW_BPB1_ODEX_DEODEX_V9.zip & Extra_toggles.zip. Do I open Safestrap -> Reboot...
