[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] pxp3:
Don't you think it's amazing that nobody speaks of this phone for the battery in every single blog, forum and media?

Today i was reading somewhere about a new type of battery made by some company different from Lithium that might last up to 40% more than average.

My S5 Neo lasts 120% more than average and has all the best features included... I don't understand anything.

Yep such bloatware crap....we need to froze those app. Usually with titanium and root....we need to be a little more patient. The more it is used, the more we may have root fast....

Galaxy S5 NEO – SM-G903FXXU1AOGG, on Android 5.1.1.

Hello!

Same question here!

I am the proud owner of a Galaxy S5 NEO – SM-G903FXXU1AOGG, on Android 5.1.1. (Norway)

It's a work phone and I use it for calls, texts, email and with S4 I used it in conjunction with Sidesync for work.

Turns out, Sidesync, does not support the S5 Neo, and apparently the S5 Neo does not have the mirror feature??

So, I try Airdrop, but to use airmirror, my device needs to be rooted.

I also would like to add AC3 codec for .mkv support when using Gear.

So, question is, can I root this device, and if so, when will it be available?

I suppose custom Rom is not possible (ie. different camera, processor etc) yet?

Thanks!

Just got this phone. I love it. Came from a Z3 compact, and the neo is a bit slower menu-wise. But helped alot do disable most of the samsung apps.

Cant find a way to disable the animation on the lock screen. When I activate the screen, the image zooomes out a bit. Before I enter my pin. Disabled all animations under dev. settings. Any tips?

I used to have a note 3, and it had a cool camera mode called "surround shot". Is that one possible to get for the s5 neo?

Surround Shot was available in Galaxy Apps (store). I can't find this plugin right now, I think it's not longer supported by Samsung.

I'm also impressed by the battery life of the S5 Neo, I am streaming Radio and watching live TV all the time and the battery is lasting longer than on any other Android phone I had. Plus the FM Radio, F1.9 camera's, MicroSD, replacable battery and the great S6 themable UI. And lets not forget LTE Cat 6.

If I could root the device and apply the stereo speaker mod this device would be perfect.

I have not tried this way, i can't tell anything about that. No idea why you ask me [emoji2]

What i did and try is pushing all necessary files through adb and chmod and chcon them. Supersu finds the binary but can't update it.

Although the binary isn't up to date you should have root rights or not ?

Yes, you should be prompted the first time supersu starts that it requests root access. That doesn't happen.

Is it usefull?: update.zip format

A experimental build is available at https://superuser.phh.me/superuser.zip

It should be able to root any device supported by super-bootimg from TWRP (and possibly other custom recoverys)

You still need to install the APK afterwards. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....phh.superuser

Hi,

I tried the following:

► Pushed Chimera kernel (using chimera tool --> ROOT -make sure you are OEM UNLOCKED-) , as i was expected it would't work. However i "might" had a permissive kernel.

► I then sideloaded the superuser.zip from (https://superuser.phh.me/superuser.zip) and also installed the SuperUser.apk from the app store

However again i have no ROOT.

The KNOX now throws warnings for the kernel and i don't really like these blinds steps i make so i am going to Factory Reset this **** from ODIN using the original ROM.

I am a Developer but my experience in Android and android kernels - architecture is unfortunately zero!! (Windows C# FTW!!! xd)

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

So far if i got it right i need a permissive Kernel.

However do i decompile it from the enc4, which gives me a boot.img which gives me (ramdisk.gz,kernel,initrd) make the change a like this (https://github.com/moonbutt74/kerne...mmit/2e4de065b266a7a15e1d392ff3f80f5c089a423d) and recompile it ?

Or i just get the sources from somewhere and compile it from scratch?

Thats quite usual with "after flagship" remodels, they usually take a lot of things off.

But honestly, they took out most of the crap that was just there to "blow your mind" in the flagship model and made the phone more price available.

+ you got a new generation CPU in it, which has mostly same or better performance.

I believe the difference is about 200€, and I wouldnt pay that much for the stuff thats missing from the flagship model.

+They fixed some of the bad design things from the flagship model, like the sticky back of the phone, or the cover for the USB which broke just after few uses and etc...

I had G2 plus. Good phone. But this one is quite an upgrade compared to that one.

The only thing is the root and roms unavailable.

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

Iam no expert here. But I believe the LTE bands are hardware based and this phone is supposed to only support these:

800 (band 20), 850 (band 5), 900 (band 8), 1800 (band 3), 2100 (band 1), 2600 (band 7) MHz

I wouldnt flash firmware from other model.

Especially because this one uses completely different CPU, so I would bet it wouldnt work.

So the only way would be to replace wifi card on your phone, but you can imagine how hard or nearly impossible that might be. (even if you did, you would probably have to write custom firmware to it)

So I would say you got a problem.

But I only did a very quick search on google, you might try going deeper.

Nice christmas.

-----------------------

Anyway, I just got 2 kinds of headphones for christmas (1 for my father)

Pioneer HDJ-500

Shure SE315

I compared the sound of Galaxy S5 Neo and my older Galaxy S2 Plus with "[5.1.1_R26][OFFICIAL] Resurrection Remix 5.5.9 Final Build" rom. (2013, January-model)

Both PowerAmp app with same settings.

S2 Plus with that custom rom has better sound, more alive, more full, more clear. (most probably even more volume)

The S5 Neo isnt bad or terrible, its just not as good and there is definitely a difference.

But I think (and hope) its just because of the custom rom. ( and that we will get some for Neo xD )
