I posting the links that here that as I found as out the ROM developer here has moved on from working on the Wicked S5 Xperience v2. ROM anymore.

It was not to disrespect him with the links but to give people like me a opportunity to look at a a newer active G3 ROM information that I found and might interest others once they see the Wicked is not being updated.

Your fine. I shot you a pm with a link in it. That's how I usually share rom links, or start a thread with info and share a link to that.

When this happened to me on other roms too, I switched to another battery and it fixed the problem for me on 3 S3's

Thanks...2 New batteries and no more reboots/power downs. It actually would just power off not reboot. When I tried too wake the device or would be off so I would have to power out back on.

Problem solved

I am late to this thread and this great ROM. Thank you for all you have done! I admire people with patience like yours that answer each and every question even if it's been answered before. I read quite a few pages here before I flashed the Wicked S5 bare bones. It works as it should, no issues, I love it since it has all I need and nothing more!
I know you have moved on, good for you, maybe it's time for other users to enjoy your work!
And a big "thank you" to all who contributed! I find it amazing to see everyone here getting involved with a lot of respect for everyone that has an issue.
I just have a question myself. I looked everywhere but didn't find an answer. I even looked at the Xposed Gel Settings and tried to change the Google Search Widget to transparent but didn't work. Does anyone know where I can find a transparent widget that will work with this ROM? I don't want to install anything extra, maybe just the apk? Thanks in advance :)

I use nova launcher, it gives the option for every version of the Google search widget.

OH1 should be fine, it was just a Stagefright security patch. I'm not sure on the other question, it has been too long.

Can someone direct me to a fix for contact ringtones. I flashed the s5 phone zip in this thread & also looked for the SecContacts file to delete as someone mentioned in thus thread but it's not included. I looked under system/priv-app/ it's not there.

Any help would be appreciated.

Anyone having problems with ROM installing too quickly and then just sits at Wicked X splash screen forever and then never boots?

Check the md5sum to ensure you have a good download


Thanks for the reply. Nope, totally different.. I have downloaded this thing multiple times and it's taking forever. Try it one more time.

Ok, I give up. Have downloaded this multiple times and MD5sum is always different. Is there any other links to this file or any other ways to download it? Thanks

Also does not matter what browser these files download from. Always a different size and always different md5sum. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Md5 sum will never change its there to verify file integrity. And the size will not change.

Finally got a file that the MD5 matched up. But flashed through Philz and just gets stuck at Samsung boot screen. Guess it just doesn't want to work for me.
Did you wipe phone? Need to wipe cache, dalvik cache, and old rom for proper install. What version of Philz did you use? (ps you are using the l710 model right...?) Just a few trouble shooters for you, good luck.

I am still using this Wicked and I had this problem forever I been trying to fix.
I use Nova Prime with the Telsa Unread addon and I can never see any email notifications even though its working and turned on the setting to show unread voicemail.

My question is why wont it work using Boost Mobile as my carrier. Is this the way it works normally or what do I need to get it working again.?

I realize no further work be done on this ROM but hate to get another ROM to fix problem. TIA! for any help. I really need to know when I get new voicemail.
