FYI, I tried disabling the stock messages app and installing this and it returned with a corrupt package error.
I believe all these settings are in a TMO CSC file that we would have to pull bits and pieces out of in order to make a zip that runs them.

Have you rooted? If so you can look in 'System/omc' folder and you'll see a TMO folder....perhaps moving some of those files into your XAA folder in same location. Be backed up before trying any of that, and i have no clue as to if that will do it for you.
You could also try flashing the TMO CSC if you decide to root (during step 2 of root process)
Not yet, I believe I'm on the snapdragon variant. Unlocked US version. And if that's true, I believe the only way to root at the moment is worth samfail and I can't live with the battery issue. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

You are correct. Just fyi it is possible to achieve a 100% charge by leaving phone in download mode for the time it takes to go from 80% to 100%. Did exactly that last night.
Here's today's stats versus about a week ago without root, both from 100%

There is no root method for the GS5 on Lollipop.
so does that mean we can't go to an earlier version and root that?

Unfortunately, no. This phone was only rootable on KitKat.

Thanks, and that's ok but not the best of corse, what I have been able to do because the most important thing for me was/is a GPS app I use and it/was a root only app for storage to the sdext for offline maps. I get a popup now that directs me to another window that has a "hint" to select "0000-xxxx" on the next page, then I can select the sdext for storage and the app uses it (very happy) and it seems to happen for other file transfer tasks. I do not know if the app made this possible or if its just native as this was the first app I installed but it's there in any event. so now when my game files get to big for some other task I wish to do I just move the app data file to the sdext and do whatever and move it back when done. Again not the best but livable as I really like the 5.1.1/OJ3 ROM that's on my G870A, good battery live with quick operation after installing the Pro version of Samsung Package Disabler . I really like this phone! And let's hope this new exploit they found for the Verizon phones turns into something!
I also contacted at&t and stressed how important rooting can be (as for me it's a safety issue as there's bad service in the rural area I'm in) and suggested they might even allow it for an extra fee/no or paid support for doing it. I'm not holding my breath.
Thanks again, now I going to put my KFHD back to 8.1.4 and see if I can get OTG to work as this 870 is all I need for gaming now that I got glasses, I'm an old fart (chronologically)

That's vBeta4. If you've got it OTA, then maybe AT&T decided it's stable enough to make it official. In any case I've already provided links to it and as soon as AT&T makes it official on their website I'll update my HOWTO thread.
So far I really like it, everything works so far, so can't really complain.

Anyone else have poor battery life after update? I've made some tweaks but it's definitely worse than before.

I updated this morning. Every time I look at my lock screen and see the warning that my password exceeds four numbers I cringe. Do they really have to give this hint to someone who may find my phone?
Still no shutter speed control on the camera

Read the other threads here about how to do the Odin flash to 7.0
I got the OTA update on my phone a few weeks ago. My girlfriends phone however, despite having gotten a few ota patches is still running 6.0.1. The only difference between the phones , is she has a GoPhone sim card. could that be keeping her from it? Even Smart Switch says her phone is up to date.

Hi, you need to have a sim card from AT&T inserted so you can download the OTA, otherwise you won't be able to update to 7.0 unless you'll do it with via ODIN(computer and cable)

I'm having a trouble getting it to work phone stays in roaming won't connect to Verizon network I flash all the Verizon files seem to work then when it boots up is still sprint logo phone is unlocked and all I do not know what I'm doing wrong
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=74087340
don't update this app!!
download Phone Info *Samsung* from playstore here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en
Go to the 3 hash mark on top left, go down to the Other Tools, then go to csc changer (root) and change to verizon csc.
Furthermore you could use shortcut master, you could search Devconfig and launch it and change csc that way.
Either way youll need root, so my suggestions, flash samfail v2 or 1 depending on ur bootloader version, then use the above app and set your csc and enjoy. @darkjoker11
You also could try ##72786# and let it reboot and clear the activation, if it was on sprint before then that may be the issue as well, this is a sprint shortcode to deactivate it and cause it to re-register.
I have a maze alpha which got this update, when it tries to install the update, it gives the android error before even getting to the installation screen ( in recovery mode), no matter what I do it just does this with the update, the phone is the 4GB MODEL it is not routed, and it has the stock ROM, when it does the error it doesn't brick, you just have to hold the power button to turn it off and then it starts up normally.
I haven't received this update yet. I still in the V08... Did you receive an OTA Update or did you find the Firmware in somewhere else?

I got this as an OTA update, I am in the UK, they may not have released it in other regions.
I'll try to update later. Need to flash stock recovery again first.

It's the one I used on my 4G Maze Alpha. I was rooted with Magisk and it installed fine anyway. I just had to re-root after it was done.

thanks for that it now works, it is annoying we had go to this much effort in order to update our phones, also you are aware you can root your phone in the developer options on your phone.

Hmm no, I don't seem to have that option.
my mistake, i am pretty sure i saw the option in a previous version right underneath the OEM unlocking option in dev - options but it does not appear to be available in this version.
Can't get this update to install. Get the error every time. Hope did you install it?

Hello,
How have you managed to root your Maze Alpha? I am guessing it is a 64GB/4GB version?
So I've been stuck on November update since forever, I check every day for new updates but nothing.
Is anyone having the same issue?

Are you using a device which wasn't offered by your service provider? You may need to flash different firmware.
Did you flash your current FW, or did you receive it via OTA? What is your phone's CSC?
If you flashed it earlier, flash again. If not be patient....

I've never flashed anything, I'm using the phone as I bought it about a year ago. I travel a lot though, so I change sim cards quite frequently.
My CSC is G998BOXM3BUK8

Changing SIM-cards regularly could be the cause...
What is shown under software version under phone info - software details - software version provider? (Or similar menu names) See attached SS.
You could consider flashing latest FW. This threat provides all info...

According to overview on sammobile.com your firmware is indeed up to date for CSC TPA (Panama).
