In your signature you state that you have a S7 edge running xXx ROM?

Where can I find your ROM for the G935F?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
I need to update my signature. I currently use the OnePlus3 running xXx No Limits Rom.

Did Update (V24) changes the Camera APP ?

dear or1m, thx for your update which I installed over latest xXx 5.9.

I wonder if this was also changing installed Camera APP.

Reason for the question is, that I use the Camera MOD within xXx installation script.

So question is to xXx or anybody if the Camera mod is "only" based on changed LIBS and will also work with new/updated CAM -APP.

Question to or1m is if "your update" V24 changed the CAM -SW. The APP-Info stated "Kamera v3"

br & thx

If you don't have a proper Backup you need to use NV Writer to write IMEI to EFS Partition yourself. Everything about it here.

Read everything careful, it's an immersive action! If you tried everything exactly like described in this thread and it still doesn't work (some kind of connect or R/W error) than you have a fully corrupted EFS Partition. To fix this you need to flash working PIT file for your device and than write IMEI again.

It sounds easy as I write it, but it took me a whole while to find out the trick and you must be extremely careful.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
thanks for sharing this additional IMEI recovery method. Never heard about that before. Unfortunately, all user's I followed who lost the IMEI without having a dedicated IMEI backup in place couldn't recover from that. Hopefully this method provide a better success rate.

Again, I can only strongly suggest everybody to create a dedicated IMEI backup for all your devices before you start flashing roms, mods, etc.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Nardskie1999:
I'm sorry but the links in that thread are not working. Could you please give another solution for this problem? Really appreciate your help. Thank you. Also i tried flashing stock firmware in odin with nand erase, repartion, and clear efs checked but it always fails in odin. Btw i took the PIT files from here ( the g900f 16gb one) https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2737448
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MysteryIII:
Link for NV Reader/Writer is working. You can get latest drivers here. If you have KIES/Smart Switch installed you already have necessary drivers. But make sure any process of KIES/Smart Switch is terminated!

Also check if drivers are installed correctly after connecting device and setting it to RMNET Mode or Download Mode. For me drivers for RMNET weren't installed automatically, so I needed to install drivers manually in Device Manager.

At first I flashed only PIT file than PIT file together with ROM just to be sure. Than it worked and I could write IMEI to "new" EFS partition. I added my own PIT file, you can try if it helps (SM-G900F 16GB).

Here is another tutorial.

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] airidosas252:
I've been playing around with various dalvik (ART in the correct vocabulary) values in build.prop.

There are quite a bit of stuff there wrong. Since Touchwiz is as heavy as a freaking house, you definitely need to optimize those values. And I did after reading various documentations.

First of all:

There is a line "dalvik.vm.heapsize=36m" lying around between renderer values. Just delete it. It's so worthless, that this might be actually the cause of slow bootups and lag when you are booted.

Second, there is "dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=8m". This is also a badly chosen value, since the bigger the value it is, less chance of GC to kick in, so less lag. In any case, when you use value as high as 24m for example, you will ensure much more consistent app launch times and less lag when switching between apps.

And lastly, "dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=128m" and "dalvik.vm.heapsize=512m". Change both values to 256m since you don't need much more than those. Heapgrowthlimit is too low for our amount of RAM, while heapsize is too high, so both of those are balance values.

I've done many trial and errors and those values really did make a difference. Now even ported ROMs are usable because of those values, while previously it was a laggy mess!

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
I applied your suggestions as well. I do not know if it something like a placebo effect, but it seems that my S5 is more reactive.

And to close the OT, an update from David Marcus (Messenger Division Manager) twitter profile:

https://twitter.com/davidmarcus/status/818908229585420288
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MysteryIII:
There is a way to fix it. It's called Amplify. And here is a guide how to do it the right way. For bad behaviors like Facebook App it's especially effective. Depending on Apps you have installed your battery may last between 2-4 times longer.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
There is not a way to fix it if the issue is caused by remote servers, as admitted by Facebook managers as well.

And, I am an Amplify user since a long time.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] MysteryIII:
Hmm, even though it should at least limit drain. Did you block some "unnecessary" services of Facebook like described in the guide? And limit the others like recommend? If you limit the connection times of the App the server can't change it, only go crazy when they are allowed to connect (f.e. only every 6 minutes).
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] fubo73:
Some of the alarms/wakelock mentioned are not in MM S5, or seem to have different naming.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] airidosas252:
Looks like everything is alright now. Drain has vanished. Now battery life is like it should be.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] CanadaGoose:

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
thanks for bringing up this. I will use your values for the next rom update. One thing I'm a bit confused.

First you recommended to completely remove "dalvik.vm.heapsize=". Later on you suggest to change "dalvik.vm.heapsize=512m" into "dalvik.vm.heapsize=256m". What's your final suggestion I should implement? Based on your suggestions above I would go for the following values now:

dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=24m

dalvik.vm.heapsize=256m

dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit=256m
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
I was quite sure that I implemented the default app setting mod in v5.8 and I'm totally sure I did this for v5.9. So either something is wrong with your installation or Samsungs Rom base changed so that the mod doesn't have any effect anymore. If you want to try to implement this mod by yourself, here is the guide I used so far:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/general/bringing-buttons-to-select-task-t3404748
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] airidosas252:
Those final values are right, just there is another "dalvik.vm.heapsize=36m" line lying around (it should be near "debug.composition.type=c2d" line), which is completely unneccesary. Look it up, you will find it, and if you don't, I'll add a screenshot with this line highlighted. Let me know.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bega2707:
There is two heapsize. First remove fully, second edit to 256m
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xXx:
thanks, obviously the stock build.prop have already double entries which provides different values.

I changes my script to eliminate that lines first and implemented the new values. So next rom update will include the correct new values.

Xxx.option.prop

After editing the value of xxx.option.prop.

Put it back inside the zip folder.

Step three. Save the file file.

Step four . Flash the zip file.

Dont use the xxx.optoion.prop from the download folder it is old.

Just put back the same xxx.option.prop back in the zip file and then flash it.
