Anyone having issues with apps that require root access? Specifically apps that toggle WiFi/data. I use deep sleep battery save to toggle wifi and data when screen goes off, it worked fine in latest cm12 build.

Now that I flashed 12.1 the app FCs when I start it.

Tried other app for same task called leandroid and it also FCs at start.

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Delboyd12:
How do you get root for this? Dya have to flash SuperSU? I'm puzzled.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] feelpt:
if you're asking about rooting a fresh device with stock firmware, have a look at this thread and look for

instructions

: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-simplegx-rom-v1-0-0-t3072269

if you're asking about root after flashing this rom, it should have root since it includes superuser. however i'm having some FCs and i think it's related with root access
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Delboyd12:
It's after flashing this ROM. I've flashed recovery via Odin, got the ROM and GApps ready to flash via recovery but was unsure as couldn't see any method of rooting.

So the ROM includes root access?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] feelpt:
You have to be on latest official firmware to avoid any issues. Read about it in this thread.

Once you do that, you should be able to flash this rom and get it running without problem.

Yes, superuser is included in rom. You should probably have to enable root access in developers options. But this is basically standard procedure
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Delboyd12:
Brilliant. Thanks a bunch. I have a Nexus 6 as my daily driver, which is so much different to this in terms of custom ROM's and rooting.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ad0dh67:
for all newby's

when installing cm12/12.1 make sure factory reset before and after, make sure you have lollipop bootloader, if you don,t do or have that it will result in fc,s!

IN CM 12 AND CM12.1 YOU HAVE TO ENABLE ROOT IN DEVELOPER OPTIONS! ABOUT THE FC,S SOME OF YOU HAVE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE LATEST GAPPS FOR ANDROID 5.1, LIKE gapps-L-5-1-15.zip, EASY TO FIND WITH GOOGLE

;) guys next time do a litle homework before flashing a custom rom
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] feelpt:
Would you mind to install leandroid from playstore to see if you also have FC?

Edit: nvm... After writing this I decided to try one more time and now it works.. Weird

Been using cm12.1 latest build since day 1. I have recommended lollipop bootloader (bod1). I did a clean install.

Here is my feedback :

- great smoothness.

- no reboots/freeze.

- cam works perfectly. Although I had a crash on first try, I rebooted once and then it worked and never crashed again.

- wifi does not active itself after a night in airplane mode when coming out of it. And you cannot manually turn it on either. You have to reboot.

Many thanks to the dev.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] kiaceed:
After I close all apps the sign disappear

Another thing... After flash Cm 12 v 30.04. În settings the network is on 3g by default end my signal keep falling... I changed in to LTE end the signal seams to be better .. What is your choice here?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] kiaceed:
I really like to go with CM12.1 but the camera still crashes no matter what I do....
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Amdixer:
Let me apologize beforehand if this does not fit here, but maybe this will help some others that are lurking the forums or something.

I was wondering how the exact process would go down because a couple of people recommended different things to me.

1) The current state of my phone:

Model: SM-G901F

Android version: 4.4.4

Baseband version: G901FXXU1ANH6

Kernel version: 3.10.0-2413392, dpi@SWDD6215 #1, Tue Nov 25 20:59:22 KST 2014

Build number: KTU84P.G901FXXU1ANK5

And I should note that I rooted it using CF-Auto-Root using this exact guide + Files:

samsungsfour (dot) com/tutorials/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s5-plus-sm-g901f-on-kitkat-4-4-4.html

I'm not sure this matters, does this flash a different recovery than the stock one? Since the download-mode screen does say it's custom.

2) The next step according to many is to flash a Lollipop ROM to get the Lollipop bootloader, which is required to flash this ROM. But if a ROM is capable of flashing the bootloader, why is it required? Or am I missing something here.

The recommended rom by ad0dh67 is "G901FXXU1BOD1_G901FEVR1BOD2_G901FXXU1BOD1_HOME.tar"

why this one specifically?

3)ad0dh67 says to then flash this custom recovery:

forum (dot) xda-developers (dot) com/galaxy-s5/general/philz-touch-recovery-galaxy-s5-plus-t3095237/post60409232

why? What does this do/add?

4) Then I should flash the ROM provided by dev. Any hints on whether to go for the nightly build yes or no? (12.1)

Some questions about Odin. There are a couple of versions floating around. the CF-auto-root used 3.07. The actual CF-Auto-Root website talks about v3-1.85. Which one?

Thanks in advance and I hope this post might help others as well.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ad0dh67:
@ Amdixer.

your answers :)

1) flashing auto root does not change the stock recovery! it says custom because you changed something on your stock rom so its not stock anymore but custom and it changed your knox too 0x1. for flashing a custom rom like cm you need a custom recovery so you will have to flash that seperate with odin

2) if you would have taken a litle time to read the first post from dev, you should already know that cm 12/12.1 needs lollipop bootloader, because cm12/12.1 is based on lollipop. flashing cm with kitkat bootloader will result in crashes and lags, many times discused in this topic.

3) the rom i adviced is the rom our dev advices, he is the one who knows best, because he made cm possible for our phone.

4) this recovery has all the options you need, its stable and easy to use, but your always can flash a recovery for your own taste, but make sure its for g901f.

5) you can use latest odin for all the flashing you have to do also auto root. but when flashing cm12/12.1 you don,t need auto root, you just enable it in developer options. you only need odin for stock rom and the custom recovery to flash cm and gapps!

last answer of your question, cm12 or 12.1, is something you will have too try for yourself, for some 12 works beter, for other 12.1 works beter. don,t ask me why because for me both versions work

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Amdixer:
Allright. I just flashed the stock ROM and all seems good, altho it is a really crappy ROM. (Wtf are things like Amazon apps, "Games & Apps", "My EE" doing there?)

So now I'm at the part where I want to flash the recovery, however it is a .img file. I converted it to tar md5 with a script I found here on XDA. Now I'm wondering. Since the update to 5.0.2 the phone is no longer rooted. Don't you need to be rooted to install custom recovery's?

And, should I:

Get the 2015 05 03 12.1 ROM

or the 2015 04 18 12 ROM

opinions?

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Amdixer:
May I thank you a lot for helping me trough this! It's working and my god is it snappy.

The camera behaviour is a bit... sporadic? I can take a picture one second, close the app, reopen it and then it says "camera can't be found".

(I went for the 12.1-20150503)

What is weird. Before I flashed the ROM and Gapps I did:

Factory Reset

Cache Wipe

Dalvik Cache wipe

but the factory reset didn't actually remove any data. All the apps were gone, but I still had my photos and downloads folder. Not that I'm complaining but it's kinda weird.

This forum doesn't seem to have an "edit post" button so I'm commenting here. Camera problem seems to have fixed itself. No idea why, but every time I open it now it works. Snapchat also correctly sees it every time. Thus far really enjoying the ROM! Thanks a lot dev!! This is the feeling I had in mind when I bought the S5 a couple of days ago. (in contrast to the touchwizz junk I got)

Nothing :cyclops: why ?

Nothing prevents installing SuperSu of Chainfire more. And I confirm that the # sign is the update request SuperSu.

I made a mistake on my previous post, read SuperSu not SuperUser

sorry

---------- Post added at 09:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

Yes I know, but I prefer to SuperSu Chainfire to manage root. And the # sign tells you that it must be updated following an upgrade of your rom :o

No...the root sign only comes when you use rooted app and goes away when you close the app

hello,

a few days ago i managed to install cm 11 on my old phone (galaxy s+, gt-i9001) following the instructions given in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2579431 and now i would like to install cm in my new phone which is a galaxy s5 lte (sm-g901f).

question: is possible to do the installation using twrp or would it be too risky to install twrp on the s5 lte?

thanks in advance for your answer.

ps.: please forgive me if my question looks silly to you - i'm new to flashing phones.

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Amdixer:
Little update.

I had three crashes today, twice.

#1 I turned off the wifi from the notificationsbar which the phone didn't seem to agree with. Screen turned black and only after holding power button for a while the "turn off-reboot" etc. screen popped up.

#2 Used controls on headphones to control music. Music was playing and all was good. But when I pressed the buttons the screen wouldn't come on. (music still playing)

Camera behaviour is still a bit random. Does cyanogenmod save crash logs so I can contribute? I tried looking for the ROOT/proc folder but it doesn't exist.

Would I be able to just flash a 12 ROM over the 12.1 ROM? Or do I need to factory reset and stuff again?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] mikey187lfc:
I'm downloading the new 12.1 now. I'm back on touchwiz as last time I was on 12.1 I had camera issues. Never had any other issues at all.

I think you need to factory wipe as its different gapps
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ad0dh67:
no you can,t!

you need to do a full wipe and also format system and sd card.

and cm12.1 needs gapps for 5.1.1, thats a different gapps then the one on the site from dev.

Do a bit more reading, all your answers you can find in this topic!

if you do it the right way cm 12.1 works without crashes and cam works also normal!

i think its a bit a shame that some of you guy,s totaly have no idea what you are doing, some of you come with bugs that aint there.

reading = learning
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ad0dh67:
some of you don,t seem to know where to find root.

tap 7 times in a row the build number, then you will activate developer options, in dev options you will find the option too activate root
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ad0dh67:
option root, same all cm builds
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] guztav:
does this mean cm12.1 is unable to live without google apps 5.1.1?

sorry for asking, but cm11 on gt-i9001 does not need any google apps at all - at least on my device.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Amdixer:
Just reflashed after wiping literally everything there is to wipe (factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, prepare for ROM install and User Media) Camera problem still exists. So unless I'm missing something here there is really a bug. Front facing camera seems to be fine and never fails. Along with this camera problem it also means that the flashlight toggle doesn't always work. I used the philz's recovery from the topic you recommended and installed from a clean SD card. (completely empty, other than the Gapps and the ROM)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] kiaceed:
Same to me... I use philz's recovery end wipe everything ,flash CM12.1,data factory reset, flash gapps, and same camera crashes... Everything works fine except camera...

In CM12 camera work perfectly end I used daily but in CM12.1 no matter what I do camera keep crashes...

just download G901FXXU1BOD1_G901FEVR1BOD2_G901FXXU1BOD1_HOME.tar from sammobile and flash it with odin, make sure to do a full wipe first, and then flash with odin and you will have the lollipop base and loader which is needed for this cm

thanks for your answer. i downloaded the suggested file, placed the phone into download mode, started odin and selected the downloaded .tar file. the phone seems to be recognized by odin but i cannot find a way to 'do a full wipe'. is a 'full wipe' the same as 're-partition' in the options of odin. this option is greyed out.

now i feeel kind of discouraged.

This is a bit confusing cause we don't know who to trust and if the new ROM is really new and based on the previous one or if it's a different fork.
