[General Questions and Answers] Target Practice:
Hi all,

I am new to XDA and flashing roms etc. I have currently flashed 5 times... mainly due to experimentation though. I am currently running Albinoman's CM13 Alpha build on my Samsung Galaxy S5. I have the kltedv build.

Since upgrading (i have always had battery issues) I have noticed that I have in my battery usage section I have an item called Over-Counted. yesterday it took over 44% of my battery usage!!

What is this item? What does it do? Is there something I can do to better manage it?

Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
thats something that got implemented not too long ago, and im not sure why.

it is my understanding, that its some sort of mis counted battery statistics, and its not something using battery that you can fix.

i could be wrong, thats just what i thought it was.
[General Questions and Answers] Target Practice:
Thanks. That is what it sounds like... My battery is leakier than a sieve. Hopefully my replacement arrives soon

Phone Info:

Samsung Galaxy s5 (sm-g900p) (Sprint)

Android Version 5.0

Build: LRX21T.G900PVPU1BOA6

Hi, Thank you ahead of time to anyone who might have a minute to help me out. I have been combing XDA and as well as some other sites trying to find a solution myself but given my limited experience in this area Im at the point where I thought it best to stop and ask for help rather than do the wrong thing and have my phone blow up in my hands TNT style :p

I rooted my s5 a few weeks ago using Odin with C-f--auto-root, which went perfectly and I had zero issues afterwards.. This was only my second rooted device so of course I was exploring all of my new options out there to customize my phone.

The problem occurred after installing the apps Layers Manager and Layers Showcase (BitSyko Development) from the Playstore. Both seem like great apps and were not to blame for this problem, I just happened to be using them when I jacked something up.

Basically, over a day or two I tried several Layers Themes and they applied just fine, but one did not. Shortly after applying the Layer, and rebooting my phone I ended up on the bright Yellow Sprint Spark startup screen and my phone wont budge past this point.

I am able to boot into Recovery Mode as well as Download mode. I tried wiping the cache Partition as i had read to do as well as doing a full data clear and reset :( ,but it still; wouldnt move past the yellow screen. Then I very carefully followed directions to flash the stock firmware using Odin, making sure i used the right one for this phone and Odin displayed PASS! at the end. From what i could tell, it all went fine... But it STILL wont move past that enraging yellow screen!! :mad:

I think I may have missed something in regards to flashing stock firmware but i dont know. Ive read some other suggestions and things to try but, like i said, at this point and with my limited experience, I thought it best to concede and ask the experts for some help.

I hope I included any information needed...

Are you waiting long enough to allow for loading? Did you try installing a stock rom that matches bootloader version?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amandajbee86:
Hi, thank you for your reply. Yes, the stock rom i used matched the original rom on the device. I had taken some screen shots of the Device Info screen a while back for something else, so luckily i had a lot of general info right there shot the s5. And i waited a good amount of time. Odin took a few minutes and it read PASS at the end. From what i could tell, it was all done and i still waited just to be sure. But the more i think about it, the more i feel that i did do something wrong at this step. I'm just not certain what :(

Flash the TWRP recovery in odin

After that enter in recovery mode and format system, data, cache, dalvik cache, sdcards.

Then put the phone into download mode, and flash with odin the last stock rom (OG1) but make sure you don't have selected the "reboot" option in odin

After you got your phone flashed, take the battery out put it again and enter in recovery mode, choose "wipe data/factory reset"

Then put your phone in download mode and flash again the stock rom (OG1) this time with the "reboot" option selected

After you flashed your phone the first boot takes some minutes (in the yellow screen), just be patient.

After this you should have your phone complety clean and your problem solved.

Odin 3.10.7

Thank you so much! I am going to give this a try hopefully tonight, or in the morning if I cant make time tonight. I will report back once I do. Again, thank you so much for taking the time to help me out. It really means a lot! :fingers-crossed:

i had the same problem and tried over 10 other ways to fix it. i finally found this post and it worked! ty so much. was almost ready to throw the phone out
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youdoofus:
see, nw this is the type of post i like to see!! [MENTION=4795768]daniel3x[/MENTION] , for future reference, idoneapps.com has WAAAAAAY faster downloads then sammobile and the tar.md5 files are 100% legit! But youre reply is pretty much exactly what i would have said. I personally would have advised on OK4 vs OG1. OK4 is just easier to mess with on TWRP and stuff.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew2432:
wait a while for first stock boot from yellow screen

I've read that flashing a stock firmware will take 10 to 20 or more minutes on your first boot. Let the heat sink from your body and give it time.

I want to flash to a stock as well. Can I just full system wipe in twrp and Odin og1 or ok4>what I'm currently on and would like to keep it? Should I take out my SIM? Should I take out my sd card? Will I need to re partition my ext2/4 on the sd? Does the stock image replace the bootloader? I have a twrp backup on my extsd, can I use it after attempting to flash stock? Flash stock tar/zip should stock be a tar?, Odin kltespr twrp in pda mode, leave everything alone, root method of choice, phh su so flash in twrp, should I update Odin? I have 3.07 and 3.10.6. Then wait out that initial boot. I don't want a backup of what I have now because I've done things I wantedd to revert and do differently this time as I'm not AS clueless
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerRekter:
Oh, some app permissions can cause a bootloop. Instead of flashing the whole stock rom, you can flash the recoveries through odin.

You can either:

-Flash stock recovery through Odin (BL slot) and perform a factory reset/cache wipe

-Go through TWRP and restore your backup

-Go through TWRP and wipe your cache partitions on ADVANCED WIPE

Bl is the recovery? Odin can't flash a bootloader?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentc:
This salvaged my sprint phone

I had to flash back from LineageOS 14.1 to stock rom temporarily to "update profile" so I could make phone calls again after moving the phone to a new line. I tried several different versions of stock rom and flashed via ODIN, but all got stuck on the boot loop. It felt like I had searched endlessly for a solution until I came across this thread. I followed the process (Thank you [MENTION=4795768]daniel3x[/MENTION] & [MENTION=3695297]youdoofus[/MENTION]) using the stock rom ending in OK4; it worked flawlessly!

If possible, I would like to see this thread "stickied" for Sprint Galaxy S5. It will likely save other users a lot of time.

:good: :victory:

[XDA Assist] WmRColmanIV:
The other day I ended up catching a ransomware virus and figured I would just do a reset on my device. I knew I could boot to a screen allowing me to do so, but I used the wrong hard key combo and booted into the download screen and accepted to run with it before I realized what I had done. So, here I sat and saw nothing happening since I didn't have my device connected to anything and when I gave up on it, I pulled the battery. When I got home, I used my wife's phone to Google how to do a reset from bootup. "Up" volume key, not the "Down" key... oops!

So, I wiped the data, rebooted, went thru all the stuff to get all my apps back and phone working, then later in the day, my phone would just shut off like the battery was pulled. I noticed I would also lose 4G with the symbol showing "no service" then it would shut off then, as well.

So now, I'm figuring that I corrupted something when I tried booting the phone the wrong way the first time.

I've tried Odin, the wrong file for my phone (PDA one), found and downloaded the correct one and tried that, the .pit file for the partition, read a bunch of stuff on here and another forum in order to fix my phone... to the best of my understanding, it's only been soft-bricked.

On the download screen:

Product Name: SCH-I605

Current Binary: Samsung Official (used to say "Custom" after the first attempt to flash)

System Status: Custom (I'm guessing it should be something else)

??? RP SWREV: A3 (Best guess as to what this says)

KIES_HOME_I605VRAMC3_I605VZWAMC3_1098177_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5 is the most recent file I've tried using on Odin for the PDA (AP) tab. The program (flashing?) runs damn near all the way thru then fails at sboot.bin. Now when I turn on the phone, it says something about Kies and recovery. Kies will not connect to my phone via cable, and since I can't get the phone to boot at all, other than in download mode, I'm stuck!

Please help me!

Oh, and most of the files I've looked for online have taken me to some way out sites the had me download executable files that want me to install everything under the sun and still not give me the file I originally sought out. I'm hoping someone out there might have the files I need to fix my phone and would be willing to share them with me!

I may be a noob, but I have some experience with technical matters. I'm honestly in unfamiliar territory here though!

Thanks in advance!

[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I am now a Cricket customer! I am getting H+ data. I am trying to send MMS messages using Textra (won't work) and the Stock Messaging app (ditto) . At this point I will use whichever of the two I can get working. Is anyone out there on Cricket who can explain / help who has personally dealt with this? I changed the APN settings on the X2 to be exactly the ones on the Cricket website (the Cricket store had misspelled some of it!) I also went into Textra Legacy and changed the APN manually (Textra had my old TMobile information - it didn't change automatically for some reason). I am trying to send the MMS (group texts and / or pictures) while off WiFi. I can send single (no picture) SMS and receive responses but I am a texter who sends mainly group messages and pictures! PLEASE help!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
In settings---->more---->Mobile Network, under Access Point Names under MMS tap that and look at the mmsc. Write that down. In Textra go into Settings, and at the bottom go into MMS, then MMS Advanced. Go to Manually Configure APN and put in what you wrote down in the MMSC.. Hit ok, then try it and see if it starts working.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
Thanks for trying! I actually have

http://mmsc.aiowireless.net

in both of those locations already! I have tried this every which way but I am thinking there are exponential Settings and Input... What if I got the Input right but have a Setting OFF instead of ON or vice-versa? That's why I was hoping there was the elusive Cricket customer X2 owner out there that I could copy the Settings and Input from...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
I just bought a 702L so when I get it I'll be able to help you more.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
Whaaat? You did? I know that you are gonna be shocked at how easy it is to set up right out of the box! I was hoping to find that elusive X2 702L owning Cricket customer out there who has figured out how to successfully send and receive MMS messages! I guess I am a unicorn! Lol! I am headed back to the Cricket store today... I don't know what they can do for me... I called them yesterday and asked if MMS trouble was an issue at Cricket right now (with my luck I would be beating my head against a wall for hours only to find that it is a known Cricket issue). They said not that they know of and told me to bring the phone back in... I don't think that there's much knowledgeable or experienced help there so I am not thrilled... If I find an answer I will definitely post it for anyone else out there having trouble...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I forgot to ask you... Is the Stock messaging app supposed to work at all? If I have all the Contacts formatted to +1 (757) 555-5555 is it supposed to work? I never got the "invalid recipient" message and have never had trouble sending or receiving actual phone calls... When I send a group message on the Stock app it does send it but it divides it up into separate messages. If I send to 3 people it shows it as one message on my screen but shows Sent 1, Sent 2 and Sent 3. The responses come up on 3 different screens. It's too confusing to follow... And when I send a picture it doesn't send at all. Should I tell Cricket that the Stock app never works for USA X2 users? Or does it? And when you have trouble with Textra they always tell you to test the problem on the Stock app so if it works on the Stock app it can be inferred that it is a Textra problem... But if you can never get the Stock app to work how can you do that???
[Huawei MediaPad X2] wpennhokie:
I'm using Cricket on my 703L. I use Hangouts as my default messaging app, and I haven't had any issues using SMS or MMS. My APN info came down automatically when I inserted my SIM, but here's what I have:

All other settings were showing "not set".

Oddly enough, I know I've used the APN info from Cricket before to get setup, using the MMSC you listed above. I'm not sure why it pulled down different ones when it did it automatically.

I hope this helps.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
Thanks, WPENN! I just got back from the Cricket store where 4 of us spent 2 hours on this and never got it working. I am afraid to jinx it but I actually found a website Gishan.net when I Googled I think Huawei Mediapad X2 MMS. This website had APNs for all the different carriers. I went to my device APN page and set everything back to default. Then I just plugged in the information they had for Cricket. Then I saved it and restarted. Textra is now working (I had installed 4 different SMS apps - including Hangouts - and none had worked. I bet they all do now... But I just needed one and Textra is my go-to...) I am doing the happy dance!!!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
Oh, and I set the APN settings in Textra, too... I have everything written down in case I (or anyone else) wants to use it again!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Great news! I'm glad you got everything working.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
That was my last hurdle. Now I am going to start looking for an unneeded power supply and I am going to try modifying my Smart Case!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I tried this APN information because my old one's performance was very spotty... And so far these settings are WORKING! FINGERS CROSSED! BUT YOU MADE MY TURKEY DAY! THANKS!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] wpennhokie:
I'm glad it worked for you! As many questions as I ask around here, I'm more than happy to help someone else.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
Well, again I spoke too soon. I am sooo anxious for this to work that I jump with excitement the first day and then... [emoji26] [emoji26] [emoji26] [emoji24] [emoji24] [emoji24] I just don't get it! I found out that I didn't get a bunch of texts from people at Thanksgiving. That's why I changed the APN settings to the AT&T ones you provided. By then I wasn't in a group of phones. Only one other phone available to use to help me test mine. I have to admit, I think all the successful testing of the new AT&T settings was on a single person text basis. The word texts and the picture texts worked great and I thought I was so lucky! But then on Black Friday I was at the mall and was informed by phone calls that I didn't get some texts. Words. Both single and group texts. So that night I tried Hangouts. It was too hard for my recipients to deal with as they helped me with my testing and it seems like the group Hangouts still didn't work correctly. So yesterday I missed a bunch of texts... And last night missed about 15 pictures that were texted amongst the group. It seems like the recipients have no problem getting my word and picture texts. I just cannot receive theirs. So now I have tried 3 different sets of APNs on the Stock Messaging app and Textra and now even Hangouts... I just don't know what to do!!! A LOT of my interaction with this phone is texting and picture texting!!! If I could only find the xda unicorn - the person who is a Cricket customer who also exclusively uses Textra AND does not have a rooted 702L!!! Lololol!!!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
I haven't had a single problem with texting on T-Mobile. I'm not sure why it's happening to you. Maybe it's something with the service in your area? That's the only thing I can think of.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I got a new sim card from Cricket yesterday and I am doing a Factory Reset today... I don't mind... I am going to start fresh and I am going to use the AT&T APN settings that the other poster who is a Cricket customer provided... I am going to manually put the APN information into Textra if it doesn't automatically come in. I have a good feeling about this... Wish me luck!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I got everything finished yesterday and soon after I got a phone call from a friend. He asked if I had gotten the 2 pictures he texted me... I didn't but I thought it was while I was down. He said he had just re-sent them. I had finished setting everything up and the first thing I find out is that I am still not getting pictures. So I asked him to re-send them. Still nothing... We were able to word text back and forth... So then I asked him to wait a minute and re-text the pictures and I immediately got off WiFi. I got the pictures immediately!!! So I went into Textra and went to the TMobile fix setting and turned it on. It is supposed to instantly turn off WiFi to allow you to get a MMS text (group and/or pictures). I did find out that TMobile doesn't allow MMS over WiFi so I figure Cricket is probably the same... I am Googling it today... So I guess if that setting works for TMobile it will do the same for Cricket. OR I can never get on WiFi again - I cannot predict when I am going to get a MMS text...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
I don't think that will work since the X2 doesn't have wifi calling so that setting is pretty useless. On a side note, in settings under More---Mobile Network I have data roaming turned on and receive MMS messages while roaming turned on as well as the WLAN/Mobile Data switch set to always use Mobile Data if WLAN is unavailable. Make sure both of those are turned on.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
More - Mobile Network... EVERYTHING under that is turned on except for the Cat 6... I don't know what that is...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Cat 6 isn't used here so you don't have to worry about that.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
I received my 702L today. I'll post my T-Mobile APN settings later. MMS works fine on mine.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I am STILL having trouble with Cricket and MMS. I called them today and they made me go back to their stock APN! It works worse than the AT&T APN that I was using. I don't get A LOT of texts... And NO pictures, lately... Well, I have been feverishly reading everything I can Google...

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoContract...y_with_cricket_wireless_mms/cw655vx?context=9

Go into Settings then More then Mobile Network. Change the preferred network type to I think it says CDMA/GSM Auto and see if that makes it work.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
The APN settings that I typed in seems to be working... I will try that if these stop working, too...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I have looked everywhere and cannot find preferred network type CDMA/GSM Auto. Those last APN settings that I tried did the same things that some of the other settings I tried. It seems to work for the hour I am testing it out after plugging them in and rebooting the phone... Then I start not getting texts when sent in MMS group mode - both pictures and word texts... This is RIDICULOUS! But I don't see how you can help with your 702L because you aren't on Cricket... Thanks for listening to my venting!!!
[Huawei MediaPad X2] VillaRegina:
I forgot to say... I have been testing with my mom's AT&T phone in the same room as mine and other phones in other locations which are all Verizon... Another weird thing... If I go into the one-on-one texting and I text first - I usually get it working again for an hour or two - like I have awakened the texting line - and I will get the pics and/or words for a while... Then it randomly stops working again... If you have Googled Cricket MMS like I have you have seen that I am not the only one with this problem... I will move to ANY provider that doesn't have this issue - MMS is a real requirement in my cell use... But I can't do TMobile because where I live is a TMobile-free zone apparently...
[Huawei MediaPad X2] ajsmsg78:
Yeah it's starting to sound like a Cricket issue. I've set up a few x2's on AT&T and T-Mobile and haven't had any issues with texting or MMS. In fact the SIM card automatically set the APN on each as well.
