[Q] Help needed, S5, Kernel The Arkenstone - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
ive had a search of the forums but I dont see any with the same problems..
I am pretty new to playing around with my phone so I alologise in advance,
I am running a rooted s5, I changed the Kernel to The Arkenstone kernel (using flashify) so I could change SELinux to permissive and use on my app radio.
Since doing this my phone is having issues, it doesnt auto rotate, hdmi doesnt connect, and thenphone doesnt stay off it automatically reboots (ive attached a photo of it turning back on)
ive tried to change he kernel but it doesnt seem to change and I am unable to flash from biot because the lhone just turns back on,
any help would be brilliant!
Cheers

[Q] i9505 MIUI Wifi not working

Hello,
today I flashed the MIUI port for my i9505.
Everything works fine but if I want to activate the wifi, first the wifi button turns orange and jumps to "on" but after a few seconds, the wifi button jumps back to "off".
I don't know what to do, it's the newest port of MIUI, please help!!!
I'll flash the older version 3.6.28 and look if the wifi works
After flashing the 3.6.28, its still the same bug. Installed via PhilZ Touch recovery, fully wiped, no wifi.
What am I doing wrong?
Any ideas?
Someone out there who uses the 3.7.5 without the wifi bug?
Now I just changed some directories and files with the stock touch piss rom but still nothing happens
This rom is fuc**** pissing me off, I'll go back to Jamals GE Rom

[Q] Cant turn on NFC

Hello everybody,
month ago i tried this mod for NFC Lockscreen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2285978). I flashed it to my phone and clicked on turn on NFC, but just slider changed to NFC ON, but this icon on panel on top wasnt there and NFC doesnt work. I dont know how to repair it, because i have no backup...
Thank you for you help!
Solved in service...
*Thread hijacked*
Hey guys. I'm from the S4 mini forums and came here to help solve our problem as we are only a small community.
Basically a kernel was made for stock rom enabling BLN and other mods but since flashing that, it has disabled our NFC (tries to turn on).
Even after flashing/factory resetting and changing firmware doesn't solve the problem.
I have managed to come up with a temporary fix by replacing "nfc_nci.msm8960.so" located in system/lib/hw from CM rom. Soon as we flash a fresh firmware via Odin, the problem comes back.
Does anyone have a rough idea what this kernel may have caused for this to happen?
Hope to hear some feedback soon as we are all getting rather frustrated over this matter.
Thanks people and Merry Christmas!

Great ROM
Hey guys, new to the forum. The best ROM I tried so far, took a while to get used to the many features that this rom offers, but is fast and stable, never had any problems with it. Though you need some basic experience to customize you phone using Phoenix rom, you'll end up with a device more efficient and great to use. I'd like to ask you one thing about the Ultra power saving feature (by the way is a great feature, it makes the phone battery in standby extremely efficient), is there any possibility to schedule this feature for example at night? It would be great to set it automatically between custom hours. I was impressed about how low consumption the phone has with this feature on. In my case during sleep, after 8-9 hours the battery percentage remained the same. Thanks and keep up the good work !

Not being able to check/uncheck "Restricted Background Data"
Folks,
I've searched several threads for this one and could not find the answer, so I hope someone can help. I've got the Phoenix ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349584 and it works great! The only issue I am facing since I got the ROM is that I do not receive notifications regularly when using data. I only get them once in a while. As soon as I switch to Wi-Fi though, I am flooded with messages. I have checked and wanted to make sure that background data was not restricted, but when I got there I realized this option was not clickable. It's there but I don't seem to have a choice. Is there a way I can get this one active or is there a way I can fix the issue? Anyone faced same issue?
Flashlight issue
Hi there,
Just installed PhoeniX 10, it's just awesome! Big thanks to tamirda
Regarding the flashlight issue mentioned by several users, I think I have it too. It has something to do with turning the flashlight on from the power menu. Steps to reproduce:
1. Open power menu and turn on Flashlight
2. Open notification toggles. Bug: flashlight toggle is off even though flashlight is still on
3. Turn on flashlight from toggle (now flashlight is still on and the toggle is on too)
4. Turn off flashlight from toggle. Bug: toggle is off but flashlight is still on (it can only be turned off from power menu)
The torchlight app behaves the same as flashlight toggle when flashlight has been turned on from power menu
Funny stuff to try: turn on flashlight from toggle and then turn it on from power menu. The flashlight intensity diminishes! Turn off the flashlight from power menu and it's still on, but back to high intensity. Turn it off from toggle first instead of power menu and the flashlight remains the power menu one.
It seems like the flashlight from toggle/torchlight app and the flashlight from power menu are 2 different things. And that the power menu one has precedence over the toggle/torchlight app one.
I hope this helps! I'm a first timer with this rom so I hope I'm not saying complete crap
I have a SPH-720 on Sprint and would love to get a couple of things fixed on my phone with this ROM. I read the first 300+ posts, then read the last 10 pages of posts and I don't see anyone else having this issue. So I wondered if someone here could help. Here is what I have done so far
1. Installed v10 ROM
2. No 3G or LTE data, WIFI worked fine
3. Flash stock NG2 KERNEL for Sprint SPH-720
4. Lost ROOT somehow in the process installing new kernel
5. Tried to flash SuperSu.zip file to get ROOT back no go, tried Towel Root method but said it was an unsupport device
6. Couldn't find out where to enter in APN settins. I went inside the Settings/Mobile Networks but there wasn't an APN setting, so I installed a third party app called Change APN
7. Gained carrier data 3g & LTE after entering APN settings for Sprint
8. The only other issue I have found is I can't send text messages but I can recieve them just fine
I am wondering first how to get root back, I flashed the SuperSu.zip file in TWRP but I don't have root after reboot. I thought about flashing the v10 ROM zip again but then I would have to put the stock kernel and then fix APN settings again.
The other issue I have is sending text messages. I have tried other SMS apps and none can send, only receive. Same with Google Hangouts, I can receive but not send.
Is there something I am missing? I am not a experience ROM builder, but I have customized my phones for years. I am interested in trying to get a ROM for one carrier to work on Sprint, and I have a bit to learn still. Besides these two issues the ROM is awesome and for me it actually is worth it to stay on it even with these issues.
I am open to trying anything, even erasing everything and trying something new.
I cannot install V10
Hi,
I have V9.4 on my Samsung S4, I have downloaded new version V10. When I am trying to install it, everything is ok, I choose what I want to install but there is a problem in last point of installation. When I push INSTALL, after just ONE second it is done and there is written than V10 was installed and phone ask me to reboot. But offcourse It is not installed and everything is same as before installation.
Please help. Thank you
First of all congratulations, great rom !
Bugs: in the initial configuration dropbox crash
Normal power saving bug: settings app crash when power saving enabled/disabled
Been using the Rom for almost a week and so far the experience is great the performance of the phone even with touch wiz is superb the battery life is also better. Would just like to post this short feedback and show my thanks to tamirda for the great rom.
I just have one issue with the car mode always poping up I might have disabled it incorrectly still trying to check on it.

Screen Mirroring with Root and Custom ROMs, is it possible?

Hello long time lurker here,
I have recently embarked on a mission to turn my "old" Sprint S5 into the ultimate home media center/Set-Box, I purchased the correct MHL Adapter, hooked it all up, it worked just fine other(than the resolution) and was working through the process when I realized the stock ROM and lack of Root was not going to cut it for this mission, So I upgraded to the MOAR Rom and the latest TWRP Recovery, Couldn't get Screen Mirroring to work on it, the error I got was "Unable to enable Screen Mirroring. Disconnect the HDMI cable and try again." I tried the build.prop modifications fix that are suggested here to no avail, tried cloaking my root, attempted the WFD XML tweak that failed too, still nothing. So I figured it was the Ktoonz kernel I was using, flashed back to the stock kernel repeated process which was again a failure, I moved through several other ROMS trying the same things( MetalRom, Omega, One I forgot) the result's all the same, I currently switched to XtreStoLite v2.2 (Kernel 3.40, Android 5.0) figuring getting it as close to stock would be my best bet, with all screen mirroring addons enabled and I get the same problem, So now that you know my story I am hoping someone can save me from mission-not-so-impossible I want to find a way to get Screen Mirroring working without reverting back to the stock derooted&bloated ROM if possible and if not what is the best stock firmware for my media center plan?
I must have missed some kind of solution, are there any ROMS that screen mirroring actually works on right now? The ones that say they do havent worked for me, it would be awesome if we could conquer this! Also, I have the G900P I believe but since I won't be using any of the sprint network I don't think that will matters if I keep too snapdragon ROMs. The MHL adapter defintley works as it worked when I was stock and it has worked with other devices, I have also tried 4 different TVs of different brands, Sorry for the ramble it is my first post!

Wifi not turning on (i9505 - Stock rom)

Hi. After trying a couple of custom roms, I wanted to go back to a stock rom via Odin. I actually succeeded. The phone boots, and android setup screen comes. But in the "wifi connection" screen, when I touch the button to turn the wifi on, it just refuses to turn on. It goes back to off position. I have tried several different country's stock roms (4.4.2 only, I haven't tried 5.0) and they all ended up the same. I just can not turn wifi on in stock rom. Wifi works in custom roms that I installed using TWRP.
Any idea why this happens?
By the way, I also tried flashing different modems, but the result is the same. I read that turning off the phone and removing the battery helps, however, in my case, it didn't.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: As I have looked into the issue, some people claim that a custom kernel usually solves wifi problems. I haven't tried it yet but I will as soon as I can get my hands on the phone. Also in another post, I have seen a build.prop tweak "ro.securestorage.support=false" which is claimed to have solved the wifi issues. I am writing these to be of help to others that might encounter the same problem. I will update the post after trying these ideas.
EDIT 2: It turns out, when you flash a stock rom, Odin can't actually flash the modem partition. It seems like it does but it actually fails. You have to do it twice.
No Wifi
Hi,
have some trouble with my Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505). Since 2 weeks I'm trying to get wifi working. 2 weeks ago I decided to root the phone (everything complete stock Android 5.0.1). At this moment wifi was working well..
I did:
- Flash TWRP with Odin
- Flash magisk 18.1
--> booted phone..
Everything seemed to work well..expect wifi. It wouldn't turn on. When trying to activate the WiFi button by sliding to the right it stays grey and after 10 sec. the slider goes to the right side again.
What I've done:
Downloaded several stock firmwares from sammobile --> no wifi
Flashed serveral custome rom's (lineage 14.1, 15.1), android 5.0 and 4.4 based --> no wifi
Tried differnt kernels --> no wifi
Flashed different bootloaders and modems--> no wifi.
Tried to delete files in /wifi folder suggested here in forum --> no wifi
Tried to modify buil.prob set the security value to false suggested here in forum --> no wifi
I don't think thats a damage on the hardware. It must be a software issue?
Bluetooth and mobile data are working well. GPS and wifi seem to be broken.
After spedning weeks of flashinng, recovering etc.. I am frustrated and don't know what to do.
Any advices?
My wifi is not being enabled with this rom. Does anyone know how to solve?
