[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagle132:
I just wanted to update this thread and say that no, I have not found any solution to this issue and it still plagues me to this day. I would say 3-4 times a day my phone blacks out and is impossible to use for 30 seconds to a minute.

I have also noticed identical threads pop up on other forums with hundreds of people reporting the same issue across carriers, for example:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s5/384740-galaxy-s5-black-screen-upon-wake-up.html.

None of these posts seem to have "the answer".

I still have not exchanged my device due to still thinking it is some sort of software issue. It would be nice if it was hardware, but there are so many people reporting the issue and many saying they had their device replaced and the new phone STILL has the bug.

I will likely be selling my GS5 in the next month or so, mostly due to this issue as well as other general lagginess and bugs. I would however love to have it resolved before I sell it so that whoever buys it from me does not complain of the same flaw.

Any new thoughts here?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidstre:
I had this issue on my device. A factory reset fixed it...temporarily. I returned my device for a new one, put it in the same state as the old one and do not have the issue. You need to make the exchange while you still can, this is no doubt a hardware issue.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnnytraveler:
My problem is tapping the power button does not turn off the display, or put the phone to sleep. I wonder if there is an app or xposed module that will add the sleep/display off feature. I'm on dalvik.

Sent from my rooted Galaxy S5.

Edit: My problem kept getting worse. Holding down the power button and selecting power off resulted in a reboot. Factory reset didn't work so I ended up having to reflash the tar file to reset the phone. Here's the link if you need it. After reflashing the tar, you will have to re-root via towel root.

I want to s-off and currenty have hboot 0.80 which means i need to flash a newer RUU, probably 3.14.405.1

the xda dev official htc desire ruu roms link (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695667) only goes up to 1.21.405.2 so thats no good

There are various links on the web pointing me to : http://www.htcdev.com/process/legal_download/152

but this no longer works, i had a look at the source code and the rar file is in there but the link is invalid.

i tried installing htc sync but my desire isnt recognized, even after switching off usb debugging in the phones options.

my phone is currently rooted and running a GB Cyanogenomd rom but i only get a couple of apps installed and then it runs out of memory :( and Mounts2SD needs S-Off

Anyoe have a link to the 3.14.405.1 RUU?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
I reuploaded it here.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougsdir:
thank you, i'll give that a whirl
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Just to clarify, mount2sd does not technically need s-off.

To use any form of A2SD properly, you only need a correctly partitioned sd card, and a ROM which can run init.d scripts to move combinations of apps / dalvik and data to the sd-ext partition. So firstly make sure your sd is partitioned using gparted, or use 4EXT recovery once you are s-off. Do not use minitool or clockworkmod to partition. Then in most cases after use activate A2SD, you keep you apps on internal (don't 'move to SD') to trick them to the sd-ext.

The main reason for gaining s-off is so you can change hboot, which is how your actual nand intnernal memory is laid out. Have a look at the partition tables at alpharev.nl

- Currently you are on stock hboot, which has 250MB /system size, and only ~150MB /data (internal memory). The same as before you s-off or root.

- CM7 has a /system size of ~140MB, so you are wasting 110MB

- If you are s-off, you can switch to cm7r2 hboot using fastboot, which has a 145MB /system, wastes only 5MB

- As a result, your /data goes up from 150MB to 287MB

- It's generally a good idea to keep you app data (e.g. saved game data) on your /data partition (internal memory) for speed and stability. 287MB allows for more :good:

- This combined with properly working A2SD as above, you'll have a lot more space for apps :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougsdir:
thanks for your help!

i managed to get the Official RUU and then s-off and root and tried a kitkat rom but it kept rebooting within 2 minutes of use .

To be fair it used to randomly reboot every so often when on Stock Rom years ago, i think i read it was a hardware fault but for some reason with CM7 its stable and never reboots.

So I'm back to CM7 and using that HBoot you recommended.

Im happy with the extra space now so dont think i need to bother partitioning the SD Card and using the build in transfer apps to sd i now have 100MB free and that's with a few apps installed. I really only use the phone as a replacement for an ipod touch and before all this i could only get about 4 or 5 apps loaded and was getting the out of memory alert.

Thanks again!

I was looking at getting a Micro-SD Card and have a good track record with using Samsung. I went to get a 64gb one from Amazon and noticed a little advertisement for "new" versions.

http://www.amazon.com/b/ref=amb_lin...pf_rd_p=1773090302&pf_rd_i=64gb micro sd card

"Pro" and "Evo" The "Pro" version has up to 90MB/s read speed, 80MB/s write speed, and the "Evo" version has up to 48MB/s transfer speed.

Are these any better than the ones already out?

[One (M8) Accessories] Rickdaddy:
I pre-ordered on amazon on April 28th and said shipping would had been from may 6th- may 10th. All of a sudden on the ad page it says "takes 1-2 months to ship" and my shipping updated to may 30th - june 6th. Couldn't have that since I'm leaving the country on May 31st.

Ended up ordering off the Samsung website instead. Hopefully all goes well.

Hello all. So getting this error and wanted to see what others had to say about it. I know i am nowhere near filling my storage and recently reset my phone from scratch. When i say scratch i mean using Odin to go back to stock ICS touchwiz and coming back to CM 11. Made sure to even use the pit file with the phone. Is this a known issue and is there a way around it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ablair:
To my knowledge it's a known issue, I was getting it on Carbon so I decided to completely wipe, happened again after a while.. Seen a few temp fixes like going into /data/app/ and /app-lib/ and deleting the apk and folder stuff associated and re-download/install via titanium.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:

Hi there

I have a lg g2 802 from the UK. I upgraded to stock 4.4.2 OTA and then installed paranoid android ROM. I made a nandroid backup before this.

I just got my t-mobile mda vario, I remember reading a topic which I cannot find now, that said if you did not want the t-mobile customization then on first time setup from new after initial screens you see a t-mobile install begin at this point pull the battery out, then reboot and viola no t-mobile customizations are done.

I done this, and sure enough I think there no t-mobile customization, eg, gprs settings etc etc.

What I wanted to know other then settings, what else might I be missing now ?

Thanks for any help.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] brins0:
I don't do this, but i can imagine what would be missing:

GPRS Settings (Add these ureself)

Annoying Icons (Can be removed)

Phone Dialer skin (Can be disabled)

Providers Content (Videos, Pictures, Themes, Sounds)

Some Useful Applications (O2: Task Manager, Can be added afterwards)

I think there will most likely be some other aspects missing, but all of the above is mainly worthless anyway, so you've not missed anything.

If you've not had it long, try both setup strategys, to see which you prefer, as you can always extract stuff you like, and install it on an uncustomised install.

Hope this is of assistance...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jeegnesh:
Cool makes sense, in the past t-mobile UK put so much **** in the phone and lock lots of it down, hence I did want to go down the disable path.

I think I'll stick with it as it is and install useful apps I find along this forum, at least this way my phone stays clean.

Any top tips and MUST have apps ? (will search forum too)

Hello,

I am casting a broad net on the internet here to get a consensus with what is going on with the LTE problem many are having with their S5''s

Does anyone NOT have an issue with their phone going from 3G to LTE then back again. A lot of people (including myself) have to toggle airplane mode on/off just to pick up LTE. It does not automatically connect for some reason.

For added information, I am in a non LTE launched city but have been testing by a known LTE tower. when I drive up to it the S5 will not switch over to LTE. When I toggle airplane mode it works.

I guess long story short. Is there anyone out there that does not have this issue?

Thanks a ton for any information!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Assassin5150:
I don't have that problem I always have LTE unless I travel far out of the city which is normal with all the LTE phones I have had.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zohaer21:

Think it's an issue with your provider, I've tried LTE/3G with four different providers here in Denmark without any problems.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Could be an issue with the SIM.

Also, which version of the S5 do you have? EU, US, Asia, etc? BRanded? Unbranded?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sporklover:
I do not believe it is actively searching for a LTE signal all the time. It takes a min or two for my phone to pick up a LTE signal once I'm in a known coverage area. I've done the airplane mode toggle before as well..... It forces the signal search right away.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atg284:
I'm sorry I should have mentioned that I am on sprint. I will be going into a launched LTE city here today and will do more testing.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sporklover:
Yeah I'm a Sprint user too. All of my Sprint LTE devices have behaved similarly. It takes a few minutes of being in a known LTE coverage area before my phones (both IOS and Android) would connect. Its because the radio isn't actively searching all the time.... I'm not sure what the actual search interval is, but it's not constant. And again my Iphones behaved just the same as my current S5.

My Evo 4G was constantly searching for a wimax signal when I wasnt in a coverage area.... it really sapped the battery because that radio was always on the hunt for that wimax signal.

I don't have this issue, however on one occasion at work I lost 4g signal which is usually at 2 bars, and it sat there and didnt connect to 4g again until I did airplane mode, then it came back fine. But this is the one and only time I have had the issue.

you need to wait until they finialy decide to update their towers to handle the new triband phones, they claim they will be done with all the updates by the middle of the summer, i got sick out their sub-par coverage and took all my lines over to verizon... no regrets

S5 LTE Hand-off Loss of Signal

I'm a Sprint customer on Long Island, New York and I've been having the issues as well. I had to deactivate the S5 because it would lose data and even phone service sporadically without any warning. Sprint's solution is to go into Airplane mode for 5 minutes then back, but that's 5 minutes without service after noticing that the service is gone (and losing how many calls/messages). My girlfriend has one too and probably misses about half her calls (and texts come in late constantly) What happens in an emergency? I recently blogged about this. Isn't Sprint opening themselves up to liability by selling the phones while these issues are known internally?

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
You didn't do a forum search or you would already know that it doesn't affect everyone. There are myriad threads about this and the concensus is that it is carrier dependent.

Open a support ticket with your carrier. Also, the 4.4.3 update is said to address this bug, so that is something that you might want to look into.

Only way i can think of is to reboot to bootloader and factory reset. Plug it in your computer to see if you can save your pics and stuff. If you went to a sprint store that is what they would do.

To get into bootloader power off device hold volume down and the power button. Click hboot then factory reset. That should do it.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] GXnext:
This thread saved my life! I hope this gets to HTC and this bug is fixed! It apparently has something to do with the extreme power saving mode replaceing your home screen, and not being able to find and set the defult home screen back be it blink feed, or google now launcher ect.

Get the lastest software update to permanently fix this problem

I also ran into this problem, and was able to fix it permanently by updating the HTC software with the latest Sprint update. I got there by getting into the general setting by back-spacing while in the phone setting (it won't work for other settings). Now when in EPSM window the exit button works as intended (albeit a bit slowly)

I turn the extreme power safe mode on every night when I go to bed, and disable it the next morning. I had been doing it without a problem for 2 months and this morning had this problem as well.

I dropped my HOX+ and the phone went into a restart loop.

For some reason, I thought this was a software issue, but I couldnt get the phone to reset/restart.

I read up on boot loop issues, installed SDK and drivers and still couldnt get the phone to function. (read disclaimer)

Then, I decided to detach the polycarbonate back and the phone started normally. I didnt take the phone back off completely.

On re attaching the back, it seems something triggers the power button and phone goes into restart loop.

Although, the button itself does not seem out of place by appearance or touch.

Are there any tutorials to re-position the power button?

Your help is greatly appreciated.
