I tried to install the marshmallow update, the latest one 6.0.1 for the klteusc variant... I used Odin 3.11.1 to flash the firmware, all went well it said it passed... My phone would not turn on all it did was sit there and vibrate at the uscc screen... Currently using my custom ROM backup, I'm wondering what I did wrong :(

I did a full system, cache and data wipe in twrp before rebooting to download mode, I then hit AP and selected the update... I was on the 5.0 firmware before I attempted to update... I need help :(

Wakelocks/Deep sleep

Hi

I've owned several version of the S5 thus far and loved them all. However, one issue has bugged me for two years: Wakelocks.

On a custom rom when I lock my phone, my phone goes to deep sleep and has virtually no wakelocks whatsoever with a battery drain between 0,5 and 0,2% an hour and I get a battery life of almost 2 days; Awesome.

But in my 2-3 years of Android I haven't had a single stock rom that would go to deep sleep for extended periods of times. I get hours of wakelocks and a battery drain between 1,5 and 3% an hour with the screen off and a battery life of 16-18 hours.

DS Battery saver achieves deep sleep on a stock rom, but you don't receive any notifications or messages while its on.

All I want is for my phone to go to sleep when I shut my screen off, why is this soooooo hard to achieve???

Has anyone figured this out on a stock rom? If I am not using my phone, I don't want it to do anything. I track the wakelocks and find out ways to get rid of them, but then I get new ones and it just never ends.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pilep:
So, I kinda screwd my S5.

Long story short;

I rooted it with ChainFire to gain Root Access and went to install Xposed Framework, then tried to install Xposed Framework.

I had to do this manually, since ChainFire didn't support install zip (as far as I could see, was lazy and in a hurry). So I stumbled upon FlashFire. Tried installing Xposed Framework with this.

That's when it all went bad, my device booted and just stayed with "Samsung" in the display.

Because I was a dumb **** and rooted many devices before without any problems I thought "no backup needed". Well... here I am.

So I tried using Odin to flash back the original firmware for my SM-G901F G901FXXU1CPE1 but it doesn't matter (tried both the PHN and the VDF region firmwares, I am from The Netherlands).

Then I thought ok, CMMod it is, so flashed to CWM Recovery and downloaded http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-galaxy-s5-t3281502

It is working fine and all except for one very important thing; Security tab will crash on open up.

Can anyone help me or knows what to do? My device was android 6.0.1

All I need is an empty backup of a S5 device which I can reinstall via CWM Recovery (I don't know if this will work, but maybe it does) or if I really messed up I need a solution for the security tab not working in CM13

Sorry for my English, it is not my first language.

Sorry if this in the wrong section, first post decided to join with my problems and hope to stay and contribute afterwards :)

I will go on a vacation tonight for 2 weeks so I hope maybe someone will notice it meanwhile.

Mysterious battery drain with Galaxy S5 G900I

I'm still trying to understand your situation:

You had private mode enabled and saved some data into your private folder.

Then you have done something ... e.g. installed a new rom or kernel?!

And now you can not access the data which you had perviously stored in your private folder.

Did I get it right?

And what have you done exactly between the time when you could access the data and the time you could not access it any more?

My first suggestion would be to restore the backup of you previous system (if existing) and try to access the private data from there.

Next time you should save the data of your private folder into an unencrypted storage before flashing a new rom or kernel. And move it into a newly created private folder afterwards.

I'm also on a G900F, currently running G900FXXU1CPGI (stock Android 6.0.1) and never messed with the boot loader, but flashed the first android 6 stock rom when it was available (using odin, which might have updated the loader). The warranty is long over now at this point, so I thought I might try Cyanogenmod 13 on the phone (don care about the knox counter at this point anymore). All of the guides here are outdated though. Some tutorials were telling me about locked bootloaders (I remember that from the s3 times aswell). Do I have to find an old bootloader and deal with that first, or can I just flash the latest TWRP recovery with odin for my phone and then flash cm13 nightlies?
