Hmm ... when I follow the link in post #3 of the thread I posted in my previous answer, I find this download for latest TWRP recovery tar file: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/klte/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-gt-klte.tar

No zip and no img ... it's a tar to be flashed in AP section of Odin.

After flashing the recovery in Odin, you have to flash the SuperSU zip from Chainfire in TWRP recovery.

Here is the main forum for your device: T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

Here is the ROM list: http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/general#romList

About rooting: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2713950 ... seems that CF-AUTO-ROOT from Chainfire works fine to root your phone.

If you have issues, flash TWRP recovery in Odin and then SuperSU zip in recovery.

Good luck!

Hey guys, I keep having issues with my my not getting data when I flash a CM rom. I'm using now the Resurrection rom and I love it except there are times I turn off wifi and I have no data connection, all it shows is the signal bar with a "!" on it. I tried flashing a flashable apn but it's from the s3 and it only works about half the time. I tried looking for a S5 version but I can only find the one I got for the s3. I'm on boost mobile

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HybridxReality:
Okay, so I've been having this problem for a little while and I have no idea what to do. Figured I'd ask on here and hope for some insight.

YouTube has not been working well for me. No matter what I try, I can't view videos in 720p/1080p. Just constantly buffers. I started noticing this problem when I was messing with the WiFi Tether App on the Play Store around three weeks ago now.

Now I've tried different ROMs; I've tried stock Samsung, KitKat, Lollipop and now Marshmallow (thinking I needed the newest update) and the problem still persists.

I'm checking my signal with the Speedtest.net (Ookla) app and I'm usually clocking in around 30Mbps. Sometimes I get lucky and get 40+, but even then, the problem continues.

I have no idea if it's the YouTube app itself or maybe I messed up my phone, or damn, maybe T-Mobile just sucks. Very annoying and I have no idea what to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

was KK better than LP?

I have a g900h. I have read in few forums that KK was better than LP update. Esp when it comes to cameras.

What does the elite think about it?

Another doubt, I had a galaxy s2 and the signal/internet strength used to vary from modem to modem, and these modems were specific to geographical areas. What I mean is, if i flashed modem for europe, my signal would be flickering/bad but an indian modem gave me the best results as i am in India. Is it the same case for s5 too?

I have g900h (exynos and not the snapdragon version) and hence there arent many custom ROMs except modified stock ones. The best one is XtreSteoLite and for all the questions asked by you, the answer is yes.

As there are multiple variants of s5 (unlike nexus 4), be cautious and get into flashing only after reading OP of ROM threads properly.

Hello,

I just flashed Dokdo ROM 7.3.2 on my G901F and the only error (big one) is that Waze is not running anymore.

GPS is functional from Google Maps, LTE connection is functional from all other apps, but in Waze I initially had "Searching network" message and nothing was functional because GPS and data connection were reported as non funtional, then I reistalled Waze and now it stops in Initialing phase, where after around 1 minute of waiting time I get the error message "Cannot configure service, please try again later."

Hi. I'm hoping someone here might have an idea what's happening. I have a galaxy s5 G900W8. I have it rooted and it works fine. If I go online it looses root. SuperSU will state no binary installed after connecting to wifi. I had thought a software update might be causing it but it still happens with update disabled. The only indication of any data transfer I see is the phone connects and uploads some log file. Does anyone have any thoughts?

EDIT: Never mind, I found another thread here that explains what's happening and how to fix it. I can't post links but it's Canadian Users (G900W8) Discussion topic and post #133 by databoy2k.

Hard keys don't work after installing CM12.1 on a S5 Active

Hi!

I would really appreciate some help!

I have installed CM12.1 for Galaxy S5 on my Galaxy S5 Active, and now the hard keys doesn't work.

One difference between the two is that the "Recent apps"-key and the Back-key is hard keys on

First things first, thank you random stranger!

I have to send the G900H of a friend to support to fix the camera lens, and he told me that at one point a different friend had installed him some custom ROMs. I need to find the most stock, most default ROM / Kernel / Apps / Bootloader / Everything installation thread out there. I will also probably encrypt and factory reset afterwards, cos even if I know it's standard procedure to first flash a stock ROM in support, one is never to cautious!

EDIT: The spanish version would be sweet! (But it may be asking too much)

EDIT: And if there is a way to delete that exclamation sign that appears because of previously having flashed custom ROMs please tell me!

Hi,

After Xmas I made factory reset with TWRP and I made an upgrade to CM13.(6.0)

It was working fine.

When I was trying to make next daily update, after reboot, screen became black and nothing shown up.

I was trying a lot of things since that moment.

When I was going back from service point (I really want to sort it out) when they told me it is probably LCD broken (i have broken glass, but 1 year ago, so I do not believe it can be screen),

when I take phone out I spotted that keys are highlighted so I swiped and it locked out and shown screen! it was working perferctly fine,

so I decided that it is best moment to flash newest CM to solve issues, but after reboot screen was black again.

I can enter download mode so it is visible in Odin, but screen is black in every mode.

There is only quick flash on screen when turning on and also really short moment of Samsung Galaxy logo which becoming dark quite quickly.

I flashed stock rom(5.0), but nothing changed, despite of that I know phone is turning on somehow because I hear music on turning on...

Can someone help?

I really doubt that it can be hardware issue.

Can it be something with BL ? How can I solve it...?
