DISCONTINUED [Note 5 Port][5.1.1][05/24/16][G900V] Norma_Note5Port_V3.44_VZW

[jrkruse]

This Is Important:
This is an aroma installer so you must use TWRP or Flashfire V31 and above. You will have the option in aroma installer to choose your type of install, Locked Bootloaders or Unlocked Bootloaders. The LockScreen will work on both locked and unlocked bootloaders. If you do not have unlocked bootloaders then do not wipe the dalvik cache or you will get Sytem UI FC. If you want to run xposed on locked bootloader you will have to disable stock lockscreen by setting lockscreen type to none. Then you will have to download a third part lockscreen app. Do this before you install xposed or wipe the dalvik cache. Stock MMS requires some mods to get working. Hangouts MMS works fine.​

To Get MMS Working Follow This Thread

Or you can flash this MMS_Fix.zip But it may not theme properly. After you flash you will have to goto Applications and clear data on Messages

THE BELOW ZIPS ONLY PERTAIN TO PEOPLE WITH LOCKED BOOTLOADERS
The locked bootloader install will install a different SecSettings.apk which will allow lockscreen swipe and disable from settings and also let you edit apns. You can still access rom control from the apps. If your running verizon sim and dont need access to apn editing then you can flash this zip which will put the Secsettings back in the rom, that has the autostart, app opps, led modding and a few other options but once flashed you can not edit apns you can add new ones but you can not edit existing ones. The swipe lockscreen and disable option should still work from settings apk
Settings_Fix_V3.3.zipAlso will work on V3.4

If your locked bootloader and need to wipe dalvik cache flash below zip right after you wipe and this will keep lockscreen working
LockScreen_FC_Fix_V3.3.zip
LockScreen_FC_Fix_V3.4.zip

Tengo el bootloader desbloqueado y se instala bien la rom pero solo inicia donde se configura el lenguage y luego se apaga y asi continua siempre

 

[pyrite123]

Installing this now, will leave feedback when done.
Thanks so much in advance for this, and everything that you do Jrkruse. As well as thanks to the developers~

Edit: Works great, looks great imo, and is a nice change of pace from the good ol' Alliance ROM.
Using for Locked Bootloaders btw. So far 10/10 experience.

 

[tbclandot]

Jrkruse you are the man one of the best developers out there! I'm about to flash this as I was on a Android M AOSP 6.0.1 rom but I actually miss Touchwiz especially for my Gear S Verizon hurry up with Android M already lol

 

[Stupifier]

For those with Locked Bootloader, Can Safestrap still work on this ROM? And If So....what Kernel would one flash to go back to ROM once done using Safestrap? Can you enlighten us more on what Kernel this ROM uses/needs and if the standalone kernel is Safestrap flashable?

I already understand that the ROM itself uses AROMA installer and will need FlashFire/TWRP to flash....I'm just curious about the Kernel and SafeStrap AFTER the ROM is up and running. In OP under "Features" it lists "Hispasian kernel Default"....I have no clue what that is or if that mention is just a Copy/Paste from the Original ROM and our special Verizon S5 port uses a different Kernel.

Future thanks for clarifying some of this for me (and others I think too).

I believe that kernel part doesn't apply to locked bootloader users.

Well....if I had to guess, Locked Bootloaders will still be using/running BP1 Firmware/Kernel. I just wanted confirmation on that.

Separate Issue:
Red Text in OP says "disable stock lockscreen by setting lockscreen type to none". Unfortunately, "None" is completely greyed out and it says "Turned off by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage". This is how it was from a fresh ROM flash of this. Please help

Love this rom just sucks I had to downgrade to Lollipop from M to get my Gear S to work. Wish someone would port a TW Android M rom for our S5 but I guess we have to wait until Verizon releases it.... a tiny problem I have with the rom is the super dated Android security patch but I guess that's very minor

 

[Stupifier]

Anyone figure out how to truly disable the LockScreen though? That option seems greyed out. jrkruse says we have to disable the damn thing to install Xposed without getting FC's on locked bootloader.....but we can't even disable the thing. Can't install xposed without figuring this out.

Is there some sort of LockScreen Fix we need to Flash to disable lockscreen? I'm at a total loss here and really need xposed on this ROM if I'm gonna use it.

 

[ballisticevo]

Any chance we can get a dump of the removed apks? Specifically looking for mirrorlink

If it helps add any information, My phone also rebooted at the screen, but only once. After that, it was fine. I noticed this was repeatable behavior as well. For other reasons I had to re-install this ROM. Same thing happened on my 2nd install of the ROM. After that first reboot on the welcome screen, everything was good and I could continue.

Did you get bootloop?

 

[Stupifier]

Did you get bootloop?

No, I did not....but like I said, my phone did reboot ONCE (just once) at the exact same screen you are getting a Bootloop on.

Not so sure it was luck either. I've installed this exact ROM 3 times now (been playing with stuff).......and see the exact same thing happen. Only reboots once at that Welcome screen each time I fresh install this ROM. Everything else is good.

I'm still struggling getting the damn LockScreen disabled lol

Was interested in this rom and came across something interesting in the features list - it mentions the S-Pen Does this really have support for Sammy's Pen? If so, to what extent (i.e. partial or complete support)?
