did you try deleting the cache in nova?


Also boot to recovery, and clear the cache and fix permissions






Thanks for the response, yes I try clearing Nova's cache, and I try clearing all cache's in Recovery with no luck. I haven't tried fixing permissions, I tried that previously for another issue and it didn't seem to solve anything and it seemed to wipe/change many of my system settings.
I went ahead and tried to fix permissions and it did as expected, threw off some of my settings and messed up most of my xposed modules. Got everything back to normal but still no Air Command. Could I restore settings in titanium backup or anything like that?

I am so itching for a good ROM based on Sprint's Note 3 Lollypop base. All the Lollypop ROMS out right now are Note 4 or S6 ports and I don't want to lose functionality like WiFi calling. Anyone know of one in the works? Until then, this ROM is the best mix of features and stability and it will be my daily driver.

You can use a good portion of S6 stuff on stock rooted OC5. Theming engine seems a partial go but so far. I have the stock rooted running S6 touchwiz, weather, Splanner, keyboard. I try out the theming engine that I see floating around to see how well it works but i doubt it will see anything more than what was already added. If I can get everything going smoothly I'll post a link to download it just to make it easier for some to put them all together instead of going from thread to thread to find them all.

Just installed the TW 6x6 launcher from here.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/themes-apps/4x5-touchwiz-home-t2910243

Works perfect. LOVE IT!

This is still the best ROM out right now even though it is still KitKat.
I believe you can install the s6 Touchwiz on there. It does have a lighter footprint than TW on Stock. Basically i noticed a slight improvement in performance. A few threads say any Samsung device as far back as Note 2.

Since you seemed to have done alot there to figure it out. I'm gonna say go through troubleshooting steps. Judging by the comments you did the 1st steps now start by singling out apps. I would start by running touchwiz instead of Nova (remove Nova or flash stock rooted to make sure AC command works and stays working) to see if Nova is possibly what is causing it or is it possibly a phone issue. Wipe 3x+ always.
So try stock rooted what?....Nh7 with xposed (or wanam). You wanna see if its all good with TW but maybe just not with Nova.

Thank you for the response, previously I had done this and air command worked fine. I wiped, flashed clean, restored all apps, and everything continued to work. It was when I tweaked the animation settings in the Dev. Options (I changed the Window/Transition/Animator Duration Scales from .25 to 1x) and changed the Nova Animation speeds then Air Command disappeared. Even when I set the settings back it wouldn't work. I was wondering if I could wipe/restore settings from a nan to set things back to normal. And if so which apk would it be, Settings Storage? I've tried different launchers so I don't think it's related to Nova, I think it's more so to do the Dev Options I messed with.

IF you did just a factory reset in twrp that is probably why it's not wiping out the settings. You need to go to advanced and wipe data, cache, system and dalvik.. A couple times never hurts. I don't think the normal wipe gets rid of system. I wipe 3 times normal then 3 times advanced.. Just a habit.. maybe completely un-necessary but that's what I do..

Thanks for the response, I did wipe three times when reflashing. Here's my original post

I continue to have a problem with Air Command disappearing. I ended up completely wiping and reflashing along with wiping my internal (which I never did coming to the ROM), everything is running smoother now, and AC was working. Then I tweaked the animation settings (going from .25 on all to 1x, and changing from stock speed in Nova to Relaxed), making sure I paid attention to where the setting were to change back if anything happened. And sure enough, AC disappeared. Even after changing everything back and rebooting I can't get it to come back. Is there anything I can flash/push to system to get it to come back (framework, systemUI) or some setting I should change? Thanks in advance.
My just restored Settings Data from a nan and my Air Command came back. But after 2 reboots it's gone again. Very frustrating, any suggestions?

I'm running great on OC5 my self so it's worth a shot.. Air command works just fine.


I had to go into spen settings and turn on air command for the button to work.. Other than that when I pull my pen out I get air command right away.

I would recommend a clean without restoring anything.. I've never seen or heard of something staying even after a wipe. My next suggestion would be to flash the OC5 tar in Odin, then re-root, install twrp. Then wipe, reinstall N4 v3.

My other suggestion would be to install Cerj's theme on top.. Maybe it would overwrite a setting that is sticking.

Okay well you definitely need to start from total scratch. Go big and step back. There is a stock rooted OC5 now. Flash that after a complete wipe over and over and over. That will save you some time. I saw mentioned that flashing N4 over OC5 is fine. Some have already done that and seem content. You know test OC5 for a time with all your settings then go N4.


Oh dont flash a theme over it until you are good. Theme is just more settings added to the mix.

You might want to flash the modem and baseband again. You can do it without wiping anything. There is a thread with just those 2 things.. Flash in Odin and see how she does then..

Those are Zips not a tar. If your going to tell him to fully update. Use the tar and odin. It's the ONLY WAY. Then do what you like recovery flash the rooted versions what ever you like.

I believe if you flash this ROM on anything other than NH7, it is not possible to get past lock screen. I have personally run my existing setup of this ROM on NH7, NK4, and now OC5, not noticing much difference at all. I have always used Cerj's Blak X theme to match my taste.

Hey guys
I like this Rom the best so even now I am using it despite sac23 putting a stop to its development.

I have been having some strange issue with my camera which i did t notice earlier..

1. Pictures are too smooth, so much so that details are totally lost once you zoom Just a little I mean just a little. I have tried everything but I am unable to set It right.

2.. The save as rich tone option but default is grayed out.. I just can't turn it on.. I do t think I was ever able to turn that on as i kept thinking some settings may have turned it off.

Kindly help me.. I have 2 small kids and I like to take their pictures

I am still on this ROM myself after having majpr issues with other ports. My Rich Text option is also greyed out. My zoom seems okay. I am not sure what saving as rich text does or other options you may expect to see.

I did start from scratch and AC came back, everything reinstalled and eventually it disappeared again. I tried dirty flashing, it came back but will still eventually disappear. And now after dirty flashing my SuperSU has disappeared, everything that I gave permissions to is still running, anything new that needs root just freezes. Any suggestions on how to get SU back? Can I just push from the install zip? Or do I need to flash from recovery?

You keep losing AC... hmmmm..... well you always mention some setup. Maybe the mixed soup of settings is causing you loss of AC. Try toning it down a bit.

Start by odin back a generation like Nk4 stock. Root it of course and just get things working. Get your phone setup as a daily driver as priority first. Push all the mods aside. Then fall back a week on it as a test..... see if AC stays. Use stock TW at least for a few of those days before you use your launcher. You need to eliminate hardware as cause. After I would then accept the OTA once those days are over. (OC5 it) then use it for 2 to 3 days. To see if problem arises.

Baby it.... you know what im saying?

So this rom is pretty awesome. I tried flashing pacman rom but had network connection issues. After my experience with the wifi hotspot hack, it switches from LTE to 3G and I don't know how to keep it on LTE or why it keeps switching?
