Question about terminology: bluetooth issues

He Y'all brilliant humans,

Trying to choose what to flash. I've loved CM in the past, but I've a question about the bluetooth issue.

It seems to have particular status as a problem. I see it referred to again and again as a "known issue", and I'm trying to figure out what that means: does "known issue" translate to "probably intractable issue"? Or "Issue that lots of very smart people have worked on and been unable to find a solution since CM12, so don't expect that to change"? Or is calling it a "known issue" more a way of getting people to quit posting about it as if it's news?

Basically, I'm patient enough: I can wait, if a solution is likely to be forthcoming. I have no expectations of volunteer devs solving my problems for me, but if the BT thing is probably here to stay, that changes the calculus on what to flash a bit. Trying to make the most informed decision.

Thanks for the info, and thanks for all the hard work!

I tried this and it doesn't work. I'm very confused!

What happened to the battery icon on latest nightly? Looking ugly and out of Center.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] JamesKinds:
Hi, has anyone had issues installing last night's update i.e. cm-13.0-20160519-NIGHTLY-klte.zip

TWRP reports that the zip archive is corrupt for me and I was wondering if it's just me or a more general issue.

Thanks in advance.

Jk
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] phalkon30:
Updated from a January build and noticed the ugly battery icon, and the text is randomly gone in a lot of apps (like chrome). Very strange behavior.

Wanted to drop a line and say that klteusc is now officially supported as of the 16th! Much thanks to [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION]

Sent from my SM-G900R4 (klteusc) running CM13 5.14.16
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] yurividal:
Yes... my Google now app was all weird. Missing parts of the app.. I thought it was a problem with the app itself
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ScratMan38:
I made a flashable zip, with a script based on On Screen Nav Soft Keys Mod [MENTION=1550245]NemesisRE[/MENTION] made for the Galaxy S3.

My zip is attached to this post.

I only kept the "NAV Homewake" script, so the capacitive buttons are Off while the physical Home button is still used to wake up the phone.

This helps avoiding to accidentally press recent apps or back buttons while handling the phone in landscape.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] bilbonotry:
Answer number 2, but it does not happen to everybody
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Andante1980:
Indeed, not to everyone, I know of one way of completely avoiding it on my kltedv. Connect to a 5GHz network and the bluetooth is totally uninterrupted. The opposite is true as well, connect to a 2.4GHz network and start a fast file transfer and it breaks up for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vphotographic:
Good morning,

So there is a nightly every night, so each morning my phone says phone update available so I delete older ROM and down load the nightly. I then click it and install it.

Is this the correct procedure that you all use to update ??

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] yurividal:
Pretty much
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] -LeoN-:
Nope, full wipe before installing the ROM in recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vphotographic:
Great thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] juantoten:
At the first post, the Dev said not to expect for a daily/nightly update.

I use CyanDelta app to update my ROM. It downloads a small zip. Around 20 to 40mb and you can use that to update.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
Did a clean flash last night and used that SMS backup & restore app people talk about. Lost my contacts though, shows they sync by nothing. Even tried removing my gmail, using SMS backup and wipe all text and resync , no luck lol
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] PorchSong:
CyanDelta from play store, and no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ettore88:
Hi guys!!!Just a question...Why when i install CM13(from stock fw 6.01 MM)i get bootloop?THX in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DirkStorck:
Did you try to search a bit? ;) you need to be on MM bootloader! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curl66:
Because MM Bootloader seems not to be supported yet.

go back to stock 5.0 and start over again.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
Anyway I got a brand new galaxy s5 and I flash cm 13 on it and the camera quality isn't that good given that it is a 16mp and I tested it with the official stock rom there seems to be quite a lot of difference, so I guess you guys are not using Samsung camera hal ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] AddictedToB3er:
I think you mean LP boatloader ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DirkStorck:
:silly: oh yes....of course! my fault....yes I mean LP :D
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] KingKuno:
Hi,

I can choose a background image, but only the preinstalled image moves with my launcher.

If I choose a picture from card, it remains and shows only a quarter of that picture.

Why?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Reechings:
Yep unfortunately camera quality will never be as good as stock. I use Snap Camera HDR which is a paid app but works well and looks close to stock if you set saturation to 2. One other issue that really bothers me is that speakerphone doesn't work for me. The other side of the call gets a bunch of distortion and can hear themselves.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
I don't really have any of those issue but looking at the comparison I doubt the application can do much over here, it is more how hal works and how Samsung implemented it, or reverse engineer and write one from scratch.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] bilbonotry:
I do not think that this app saves contacts, does it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sdfgsteve:
Is there any chance you can do one with the normal buttons just working as normal?

The only reason I want the on screen nav bar is so I can use it as a permanent dock when I'm in my car mode - during normal operation I'll just keep expanded display on with the nav bar hidden, then when I run my tasker 'car' script it'll turn expanded off so I can use the extra buttons on the nav bar as a launcher dock. Unless you know of any dock I could use that would do that? Most I've seen are overlays, whereas I want it to shunt the display over so it's always visible.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
It has an option to save names but I'm referring to is under settings, accounts, my gmail I'm missing the sync contact option. I went to my backup opened contacts and exporting it to a file and used titanium backup on google contact sync apk. Restoring both those seem to have done it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Reechings:
So your speakerphone works without lots of distortion for the other person when they try to talk?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
as of now nothing so far, might be a hardware issue for ya
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Folgore89:
I Think i finally foundfound the cause of screen flickering, I'd like to share and see if it's really that.

Searching online I found that screen flickering with low brightness when the screen is about to turn off is caused by "activity change". I failed to find the cause. But after the latest clean flash I did NOT install Greenify, and used Servicely and Amplify instead. Flickering has almost disappeared. Can anyone confirm this please?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Atento:
Did anyone test the latest build? There are plenty of changes and I'm afraid of updating and get a buggy version.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mustardman29:
I could not get my radio to work with the latest nightly CM13. My phone is the G900w8. The ROM version I used was cm-13.0-20160521-NIGHTLY-klte.zip . When I tried to make calls in or out the boot up logo would come up and stay there till the call ended. The phone did not ring or present any way to answer the call. Not a crash because the phone did not reboot. Some kind of lock up. Yes I did all the things one should do. Wiping everything and re-imaging and wiping again and spinning around 3 times and flapping my arms like a chicken and then trying to wipe again and re-image and wipe. Advanced system wipe. Tried some of the other supposed remedies like enabling airplane mode then disabling. Setting the phone to 3g instead of LTE etc. etc. etc. etc. The only solution to get it working again was to downgrade to CM12.

Baseband version

G900W8VLU1BOC1
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Perru:
No bootloop, no heavy bugs discovered yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sadaniel79:
Anyone uses the fingerprint unlock and thinks the emergency button is too close to the home button (fingerprint scanner)?

---------- Post added at 01:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 AM ----------

I have the same problem too up to the latest nightlies 22/05. Switch to flight mode and back solves the problem. But that doesn't mean I'm happy with it. Hope they fix it soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mustardman29:
Switching to airplane and back doesn't solve my problem. I tried updating to the latest bootloader + modem for my phone

G900W8VLU1DPD3

After that I got bootloop on CM13 latest nightly 22/05. CM12 booted but could not get WiFi working.

So I am back to the Lolipop bootloader + modem on CM12 snapshot. CM13 is a non-starter for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sjbayer3:
What baseband should be using? FOG6 currently and latest few cm13 nighties all do not work after logging into Google.

G900T
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
Those with speakerphone issues, are you using any type of audio apps like viper, sound mod app or an audio player set to auto play with Bluetooth or headset plug in? Those with screen flicker are you using caffeine,live display or any of cms adaptive type displays? I use non of the above and have neither issue on a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Bazirker:
In regards to the speakerphone: No, I'm not using an audio app. Clean install, only audio modifying app I have is the built-in AudioFX app, which I have not even opened. Callers report that they can hear an echo of themselves whenever I use speakerphone, which I assume is due to a lack of noise cancellation.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
Klte? I have the T-Mobile variant on at&t towers but net 10 service. I also run boeffla kernel so I cannot really say about stock kernel but I do use speakerphone a lot. When I clean flash BC of issues I prefer to move anything I want to external storage, full wipe including system and internal storage, run the boeffla cleaner script (even if I don't plan to use it, it will help remove any previous kernel tidbits left anywhere). Then flash my ROM, I know wiping internal storage solved alot of older issues for me and cleared gigs of who knows what data.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sjbayer3:
The last few nightlies 5/22 and previous, all crash after logging into google account, and the startup wizard never finishes.

Anyone else having this issue?

KLTE G900T

After restarting it says "Unfortunately Com.Android.Phone has stopped"

I am doing a clean install with the open gapps nano
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] AddictedToB3er:
Try slim gapps or another gapps. I've been hearing about open gapps causing problems from time to time.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Bazirker:
Sprint klte, stock kernel, full wipe of both internal and external storage too. Maybe I should try boeffla?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] bilbonotry:
Logcat man
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] phalkon30:
Sounds different than what I was talking about, the battery text inside the battery icon disappears a lot. For example, I open chrome and it goes back to the battery circle without text. Go back to homescreen and the text comes back. Looks like the latest nightly should fix that issue though, saw some commits for it.

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 AM ----------

In the 5/22 nightly there are a ton of changes for issues like: com.android.phone has stopped.

https://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/146013

Maybe wait it out for a few days?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
Can't hurt, backup your boot image if u do t like it or it includes a cm kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
The great dying is probably close to ending...

It's seriously not ready yet, but it's close. The only thing I notice that doesn't work is camera, so I think we need to pull the camera blobs in too. Hopefully we don't have to make big changes to the CameraWrapper.

Please bear with us. And yes, it works equally well with old and new bootloaders.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
Actually, the dying will stop when this gets merged. I can force it myself but really would like Ozzy to get a say.

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/146515/

The kernel merge will still happen soonish, but there isn't an outstanding reason to force it quickly. Too bad we had to work a merge to figure it out...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
Hello, I'm a developer myself :) search iKillCypher anyway the camera quality is pretty bad, back then there was a guy name paulk he reversed the hal and wrote exynos_camera which is pretty awesome, I noticed OpenCamera quality is pretty good less notice etc no idea why ? But it is bad on Snap, question is how is the camera working here Google Hal ? With the help of Camerawrapper ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] phalkon30:
Seriously, you're awesome man! Running official now, greatly appreciate your help

Sent from my SM-G900R4 (klteusc) running CM13 5.22.16 official with xposed
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] j1gga84:
So it means that it does not matter anymore either we chose a LP or MM bootloader because CM13.0 will work with both now?

regards
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
That's exactly what it means, at least in my testing. All official CM13 builds dated 20160524 or later should work fine. All cm-derivatives will still exhibit problems until they release a build based on kernel sources after the shim was merged.

In case there is some weird corner case, the best test would be for known working CM13 installs to just install the new bootloader through Odin.

Clean installs should also work fine (I did one), but there are tons of reports of various gapps problems these days causing different bootloops.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] derpöbel:
Hi all, i got a problem with my G900F using cm13 -20160524-NIGHTLY-klte.

Its not possible to call any telefon nummber or be called wihle WLAN is aktive.

If someone calls me he hears "...is temporary not available.

If i call a numer the phone stops with "call ended"

If i turn off the WLAN the Phone works fine.

Whit the latest Stock Rom for DBT everything works fine.

Does anyone know that problem or knows a solution?

greetings Sascha
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
Uh did the developer see what I posted about camera ? Would love a reply and maybe I can see if we can improve the camera to like stock they are using isocell sensor right no hal source online any other cell use other sensor before ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
The CameraWrapper code that maps the klte blobs to framework APIs is located here:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_klte-common/tree/cm-13.0/camera

It hasn't gotten a lot of love recently, so feel free to look/hack at it. If there is a camera app that you feel creates better pictures on Galaxy S5 devices then it very well could be that post-processing in Snap camera leaves something to be desired.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] omgbossis21:
I'll have a look sometime this weekend. About a quarter of the pics I take are useless lol. Never used my camera until recently and realized how bad it really is compared to my girls stock s5.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
Well do a open camera works is so much clear then snap, the quality in snap is rather bad there a lot of noise when you take a photo in white background rather visible when zooming in this was never the case in open camera so somewhere is degrading the quality of the image and it is pretty bad given that it is a 16mp shooter.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jt1975:
I odined back to PCA then took the PE1 OTA update, let it boot fully, odined twrp-3.0.1-0, then flashed BETA-SuperSU-v2.74, backed up, then Wiped everything except SD card, then flashed cm-13.0-20160524-NIGHTLY-kltespr, then flashed BaNkS_Dynamic_GApps_6.x.x_5-22-16_06-18, reboot system and everything is working :D

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] j1gga84:
Many thanks for explanation.

concerning Gapps, I had the most problems with Open Gapps, on all my devices, since I use SlimGapps I never had problems anymore :good:

I did not understand the following:

All cm-derivatives will still exhibit problems until they release a build based on kernel sources after the shim was merged.

normally the cm.derivates come with CM stock kernel so is there something the dev's of the derivates have to change or is that something concerning changes in CM kernel by the CM team?

This means that any new builds of these roms built after 24th may will work with the marshmallow bootloader but any builds made before it was merged will not work.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] PorchSong:
Here is a link for the Marshmallow G900T variant bootloader and modem.

PSA!!!

DO NOT flash cm nightly 20160525 - the backup tool got borked so it doesn't keep your gapps.

If you already flashed you will have to start anew clean. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Zenns:
Haggertk any interest about the camera improvement?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Frankfor85:
I've installed last nightly 20160525 and my phone has encountered a google play services error on startup. After this, i've tried to go back to 20160522 nightly with no results, after this i've reflashed gapps, and now i have an error due to "Configurazione guidata". Can i flash something to restore system without a clean flash? I have a lot of datas to save! Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
Certainly there is interest, we are always willing to review and accept changes into the tree. If a third-party camera app (like Open Camera) produces better results than Snap and that third party app uses the Camera2 API, then I would focus on the Snap post-processing. There may even be an Snap overlay that we need to add to klte-common to enable already coded features. There could be something that needs tweaking in CameraWrapper if there are some better parameters we need to be passing to the proprietary blobs, but it doesn't feel that way since OpenCamera probably isn't talking directly to the blobs.

I don't want to sound like we don't care about the camera, but both Ozzy and my focus is primarily on jumping to the MM blobs and the MM osrc kernel -- it will likely be the last major version jump for the S5, so we want to get it done cleanly. We'd love assistance from anyone who can look into some of our lower priority items, especially if it turns out that it benefits more than just our device.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] SuperSandro2000:
Does this mean we won't get N on our devices? Or is the jump to N just a small one?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] luriert:
Went back rerooted and clean installed the latest KLTESPR CM13 and the first GAPPs in the OP. So far everything is running smoothly, except for a couple of small bugs that have already been mentioned and honestly don't really impact the use of this ROM.

Great work to the devs! For an alpha build this is incredibly stable.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jt1998:
What's your take on battery life so far? Just curious. Mine on CM 12 isn't too hot and I'm not a heavy user by any means.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] AuGmENTor:
I weigh in: not as good as 12.1. Not glaringly bad, but I have noticed a slight degradation. I expect it in an early build though.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] luriert:
Honestly not going to make any calls on battery life since I haven't been running it for more than 24 hours. Right now yeah its draining pretty quickly but I haven't even gone through a full battery cycle.

I am running greenify (not Xposed), hopefully that helps a little.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheAH:
How is Doze working for you all? It doesn't seem to be working for me, even with the 11/10 or 11/11 build. Do you think it could be due to the GApps package I am using? Naptime Aggressive Doze did not work for me and it only caused my phone to not lock when the screen automatically turns off. I'm on Slim GApps and Google Play Services/Google App is causing regular non-Doze battery drain even when laying flat without much movement.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] awsom50:
Hello and thank you for the great rom. Cyanogenmod is my all time favourite for any of the devices I had used.

I have a strange bug though - the lockscreen options are missing from settings. Is this normal or it is just me? I cannoy change anything on the lockscreen, there are just no such options.

I will appreciate some help with that. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] luriert:
I don't think it is. I see it in the list of apps in TiBu, but thats the only mention of it. Not sure if its something that is implemented through GApps or not (I'm on the same GApps).

If I go into battery settings and go to battery optimization it does show Google Play Services as not optimized but it is grayed out and I can't alter any of the settings. Not sure what to make of that.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mad_tom:
