I hate to interrupt any conversations going on but, I've got a quick question...

Please correct me if I'm wrong but, does this thread cover all klte variants?

Not too many devices within the Forum do have this and I just wanted to be sure that I'm correct without assuming this.

A family member just updated their device and gave me their kltevzw and i had recently just unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and then LineageOS.

Thank you very much!

Yes I did reflashed with Odin. Nevermind.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Nevermind? I am trying to understand. Are you saying after a complete stock flash with Odin, then installing LOS, the fingerprint scanner is still not working? Or are you saying that the fingerprint scanner works until you use your app? What I was getting at was the mmcblk0p8 partition, for example, is used by Trustzone, which deals with fingerprint stuff. A clean install will not sort that out.

Just saying.

G900F (latest nightly - original armSU - G900FXXU1CQE1_G900FXXU1CQB2_Baseband_Firmware by haggertk)

The test by rumburak's app showed the section of the external SDCard (exFAT) in red (failed).

Than I installed SuperSU 2.82 and the test on the same SDCard passed (all in green) !!!

So the chaos of different results might have something to do how users have rooted the phone.

I appreciate Lineage - Cheers to all developers.

G900F (latest nightly - original armSU - G900FXXU1CQE1_G900FXXU1CQB2_Baseband_Firmware by haggertk)

Backup and Restore works now with FlashFire 0.60 on Lineage 14.1 (rooted by original armSU) as long the kernel is switched to 'permissive' mode. The most easiest way to switch into permissive mode is done by 'SELinuxModeChanger' from F-Droid.

When rooted by 'SuperSU 2.82' FlashFire will even work in 'strict' mode.

It works on both root methods. Great job !!!

Due to Lineage I have not tested OTA.

Cheers to Chainfire (one of the masters of the android universe).

OTA-Update

Today, the first time an OTA update has been fully functional (from 20170816-nightly to 20170823-nightly) :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] GalaxyManS:
Sorry if I disturb,

in these day have been released various update, but this issue has been fixed?

I'm working in a S5 that it's not mine, for this I'm asking for a solution. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jdrch:
Has anyone else found the phone unusably slow over the last 2 builds? The Aug 16 build was choppy, and the Aug 23 build has serious screen wake delay, screen blanking out while switching apps, etc.

Is something wrong with the builds, or is the S5's hardware simply showing its age?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
There have been a few grumbles on here over the last couple of weeks. I've seen a slight sluggishness waking up the device. But I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause.

edit: I notice a bucket load of kernel patches merged into the 16AUG nightly but I wouldnt have a clue how to troubleshoot.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Panzerknakker:

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] thaijunk:
Coming from an April build to Aug 16 showed a huge difference in responsiveness. Aug 16 was horribly choppy and sluggish. Then updating to Aug 23 improved it quite a bit. I still notice some lag especially in wake like you say but it's a big improvement from Aug 16 build imo

Has anyone submitted a JIRA bug for the performance issues yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jose13683:
Just came back from holidays, I made a backup of the external SD card and than formatted it directly from the menu in the storage settings section. After the format, diskinfo states that the filesystem is now vfat, and the Rumbak (sorry if I mispelled) application is all green for both the internal and external SD. Moreover, I can now save videos in the external SD, so it seems that a reformat of the card can do the trick.

In any case, I am now copying back the files to the SD using directly the cellphone connected in MTP through a USB3.0 cable and the writing performances are very poor (1.8MB/s). Is it normal? My external SD card is not exactly "Speedy Gonzales" but if I remember correctly would handle about 10MB/s writing speed when connected directly to the PC with a SD-microSD adapter...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
Vfat is an older filesystem for Linux OS (as compared to the older Fat32 filesystem for the Windows OS).

Though, the Windows OS can read and write on a Vfat filesystem, it's performance is reflected by its own internal conversion of the filesystem.

Simply, it's can be slower because it has to read and write using another older filesystem from the Linux OS.

I did my best to explain this via text and i hope that you understood... :)

Hi,

thanks for the feedback. I would take your explanation as correct, but the strange thing is that I am performing the backup restore from an Ubuntu PC, so I am already in a Linux environment. Maybe is just the Linux/Ubuntu MTP imlpementation that is borked? :confused:

Phone stuck on blue square with time and date taking up half of screen

Occasionally, when I turn on my screen, the phone is stuck on a screen with a blue square taking up the top half of the screen, showing the time and date, with a clock icon. The bottom half of the screen is black. The phone is completely unresponsive to touch, and the only solution is to remove the battery and reboot.

Running lineage-14.1-20170719-nightly-klte-signed.zip.

Does anyone have any idea what this is?

Hi. KLTEKOR testers for Android O represent lol

ELI5 for project Treble and what it means for custom OS like Lineage? Does it make pushing updates from Lineage faster or this will give Google more control in pushing updates to all devices running O?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Bobcus Leper:
Hi,

It will provide companies like Samsung, who skin their software, a faster way to update their devices. Samsung only needs to work on their UI, because Qualcomm will work on getting O running on select processors, and Google will provide the core Android OS. This will benefit or effect custom ROMs.

directly to download mode using power+home+vol-down. If you used

"reboot to bootloader" from LOS or TWRP, sometimes it doesn't work.

Hello everybody,

What is the quality of the stock camera? Is it comparable to the stock TW camera? There are some problems on LineageOS with the S7 because of proprietary parts, which make LineageOS camera look quite bad. Just want to know how it is for the S5. Also, do you have slow motion and HDR?

I'm not 100% sure what's in haggertk's file, but the best source for Samsung firmware is always SamMobile. Try the firmware archive here instead.

I think I found the culprit for the performance issues of late: the Google app. I checked memory usage in LOS Settings and found the Google app used the 2nd most RAM on my phone (see screenshot,) which was unusual because I rarely use it compared to other apps.

Solution: enter the Google app's settings and disable EVERYTHING. Literally everything: OK Google, Feed, Reminders, etc. Once I did that the phone started flying. Did the same on my Shield K1 and noticed a slight performance increase too.

TL, DR: the Google app's background services use a lot of RAM, turn them off. I suspect since Google's 1st party devices are all high end devices now that they're doing less testing for lower spec'ed devices (read: devices with <4GB RAM.)

This is the most robust and seamless version of CM/Lineage I have ever had the pleasure of using, going all the way back to CM7.

Ext sdcard access is strange

I'm using Xinternal SD with success on n1awifi, with strange behavior on g900f. Same LOS (24 Aug.) and Xposed on both devices. Testing access in a terminal on n1awifi:

$ pwd
/storage/6ED1-12FC
$ echo qwertz >t.txt
$ cat t.txt
qwertz
$ ls -l t.txt
-rwxrwx--x 1 root sdcard_r 7 Aug 28 18:15 t.txt

On my g900f:

$ pwd
/storage/E82E-2AC0
$ echo qwertz >t.txt
$ cat t.txt
qwertz
$ ls -l t.txt
-rwxrwx--x 1 root sdcard_r 0 Aug 28 18:19 t.txt

This results in strange behavior of snap camera storing fotos on ext sdcard, because fotos are 0 bytes in length but the JPG file was correctly written. I can confirm this with a copy of the foto in total commander from the ext sdcard to the internal card.

Something is wrong in contrast to the same LOS version on n1awifi!

G900P kltespr issue of being recognized as GSM on LTE

Hey [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION]. I just wanted to let you know what I found in regards to the G900P kltespr issue on initial boot, that if the phone is set to connect to LTE, it will be recognized as being a GSM phone, and not CDMA:

During the time that our issue with SMS came out (Nov/Dec), it seems like the LOS/CM devs were trying to fix a few issues related to the updating of carrier configuration for devices that use NV subscription. They state that devices with NV subscription update carrier configuration based on SIM events, but they should update on NV READY events https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/71182/ . They also tried to make this change on the 14.1 devices in the gsmcdmaphone.java class. https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/71200/ . But it seems like the implementation of the methods differs in 13.0 and 14.1. In 13.0, under CdmaServiceStateTracker.java, in the "case EVENT_NV_READY", there is a line that allows the update of carrier config. but there doesn't seem to be the case in 14.1. under gsmcdmaphone.java. It seems like something is preventing the phone to properly update the carrier configuration when on LTE on initial boot. or maybe subscriptions aren't loading properly.

I wish I could play around and make some changes to the code myself, but I realized that to setup the environment to build a LOS rom I would need at least 100GB minimum free storage on my computer, lol. I barely have 40GB. But I will be more than willing to test anything. I have opened a bugbash (nr. 913) for the logcat if you need it. Thank you very much!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
LOL I thought it was more draconian than that! I'm getting muddled with somewhere else. I have a couple of phones and don't mind helping people out, mainly so that I can learn too. But I see so many unexpected issues with Substratum, Xposed, custom kernels etc. etc. I just thought it was courteous to the dev not to clutter his fourm.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jiml8:
I have observed that I/O to the sdcard is often quite slow. What happens if you try that after several seconds? What happens if you issue the echo, then issue a flush, then check the directory?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jaholm:
Yes quite slow!

Issue a

sync

didn't change the situation regardless beeing root or not. Umount/mount the sd card will do the thing. Filesize is then correct. It seems to me, that there was a problem with sdcard access in the lineageos of g900f. I didn't see this in the lineageos of my n1awifi nor in the latest RR (Nougat) i9305 of my wife.

So this is not a type of "Xposed is not supported in offical lineageos" problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
I think these are manifestations of the same thing with sdcard. If you scroll back to about here https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-0-galaxy-s5-android-t3476433/post72937413#post72937413 then page through you will see all the 'issues' at play. I think 'Xposed' is just clouding the issue. I can see comments relating to sdcardfs stretching right back to last year. The whole Storage, MTP, sdcardfs thing looks to be a horrible mess, but I know nothing about the technicalities of it all.

Hi guys!

First of all, congratulations for the ROM. I have updated to the last build and works like a charm.

I have two questions:

1) Is the theme support still missing? Any way to install themes on the Google Play?

2) Is NFC working for you? I have NFC headphones and speakers but I can't connect with none of them.

Thank you very much! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
1) No supported Themes. There unsupported ones out there which may have some mileage if you are prepared to put the work in.

2) NFC works. Check NFC with this app. Make sure NFC is enabled in Settings->Wireless & Networks-> More-> NFC Use a credit card or a kiddies skylander toy etc. to test.
