Thanks for the details. Are there any special precautions or extra steps in TWRP for dirty flash/backup/restore I have to take if I enable encryption, or does it just work seamlessly?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fbs:
so, you don't know what is a fast S5.. ;)

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 PM ----------

you made me install cm12 just to see it.. and you're right.. cm12 is blazing fast.. cm13 is almost as slow as cm14..

it's like going from a 20fps game to a 60fps..

Then I had a deja vu, because back on the S2 days, the same thing happened.. newer roms ppl jumped in, even with an increasingly slow performance. Choppy/jumpy animations.. but hey it's the newer android!

but since cm12 the kernel/drivers are the same, then what went wrong? If google itself put something to make things slower for older devices, can't we find and remove the code? it's open-source after all.. or the problem might be inside gapps?

ps.: I run cm12 with my Kernel ("tuned"), the same used on this los14.1. I just didn't stick with it because my cam didn't work
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] dezzo77:
Can anyone explain why the Notification LED settings have never worked as expected?

The settings can be found under Settings - Notifications - Gear Icon - Notification Light

I have Custom Values enabled and I set all the apps I have configured to have the light "Always On", and also the Default is "Always On".... however, the LED refuses to remain steady and blinks instead.

There is also a setting called "Pulse Notification Light", but turning that off disabled the light completely despite there being a separate option for "Notification Light" on/off also in the settings. It feels like things are broken here.

SM-G900T
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mpower25:
You didn't stick with what, the kernel or CM12?

If CM12 is really that fast, I intend to test it, but camera must work as well as it does in LOS14.

Same here, SM-G900MD
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sketchman16:
I'm currently seeing ~5.3%/hr with my screen on in LOS 14.1. My phone has a smaller battery but the same SoC. I'm gonna test this starting in a few minutes. Will report back what I find.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fbs:
The unofficial cm12 I downloaded couldn't boot till I install my kernel. Then it booted, but the cam didn't work.

Must be a incompatibility between bootloader/kernel/rom or whatever. I gave up on cm12 for now, but it was really fast..
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
You are a kernel dev - you know that you should be completely rebasing your kernel on the appropriate Samsung base that matches the shipped blobs. There was a massive change in camera drivers between L and M.

Alternatively, update your kernel to use the camera_ll driver and it *may* work.

As explained earlier, kernels are, by necessity, different between major android revisions.

In any case, take non-14.1 discussion elsewhere.

Hi

Can I use TWRP recovery for installing?

If only Odin can I use Bootloader button for BL and Phone button for Modem?

FlashFire?

regards
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] j1gga84:
I think it will not work in TWRP.

Turn your device off, remove battery for about 15 seconds, turn it on again and boot directly to download mode

and flash BL and CP (Modem) via Odin, Bootloader and Phone buttons are correct :good:

Hi all

I've been getting frequent crashes when playing asphalt 8. IE the app just exits each time I start an event. I've attached a logcat. I hope someone can provide me with some help.

Thank you

Just wanting some advice as to whether it could be related to lineage or the app itself.

Thank you

Anyone else experience issues with the ota update? I might delete the update file and retry later. First time I've ever experienced issues with ota update ever.

Issue: file downloaded when updating it prepares the device but didn't get to twrp. First time it blacked out and as I want looking at my phone didn't notice an error message. Second attempt at updating resulted in a soft reboot of the phone.

I'm using twrp 3.2.1. S5 kltedv.

Thanks

Hi all it was a glitch.

I deleted cache and dalvik deleted and re-download the update for lineage and installed it successfully.

I would have to say, "What did you actually do" and "Did you take anything out"

Not too sure, but I would download a new version of your OpenGapps. Seems somthing is not working, of course.

Then IF still have still having problems I would download a new LOS 14.1..

Dont forget, to wipe your cache and Dalvik cache every time you flash in TWRP. (that is why doing so, the "Reboot to System" button shows up.

Can't see files or folders within lineage

Hey everyone. I'm using lineage on my sm-g900t (klte) and when the phone is turned on and booted into lineage, I can't see any of my files or folders. When I open amaze file explorer, it just says "no files" at every level. My music app doesn't find any music, podcasts I've downloaded, photos I've taken, etc. I know that the sdcard is not the problem, because when I boot the phone into TWRP I can see all of my files and everything. When the phone is booted to lineage and plugged into my computer, my computer cannot find any files either. But if it is in TWRP and plugged into my computer, my computer can find all of my files. Tried updating the ROM and that didn't fix it. I'll post some details below, let me know if there is any other info that would be helpful.

Android Version: 7.1.2

LineageOS Version: 14.1-20180215-NIGHTLY-klte

Baseband Version: G900T3UVS3GPI1

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sk1887:
Hello, my device is g900f; baseband is in the picture attached. Right now phone goes to emergency mode on and off. I tried rebooting but I still get a HSDPA+ signal and I've always got full 4G.

I found in the thread the existence of the "force_g900f_ril_blobs.zip" which doesn't apply in TWRP recovery. I'll probably edit the post soon with a logcat if it helps.

Added logcat. Set mode to wcdma/lte I get signal with H+ but no connection... hopefully you can find what is wrong
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sk1887:
Have you checked with the file manager included in the rom? What about the gallery and music player pre-installed, do they behave the same? If they are shown on there, you might have to allow storage permission over your apps.

The music app and the gallery app are the preinstalled ones. When I try to open the pre installed file manager app it just instantly crashes.

I guess it might be a consequence of the OOM, but it's not possible to align the logs due to different timestamps, better use "logcat -b kernel,main -D".

And there is also some unsettling mmc IO error:

Error -110 is ETIMEDOUT. It might be a consequence of the OOM, but it can't hurt to check if your micro SD card is properly seated and check the file system on PC (or can you do it in TWRP?).

HTH
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi there,

I've always had difficulty in checking the file system on my SD card. Can this be done from within Android itself? I haven't found anything on my google search for running fsck on twrp. I have seen that you may be able to do this through Adb, though I've not ever tried this. I have adoptable storage enabled on half of my card. I did though run a first aid from my mac on the other half which was not adopted, this didn't come up with any errors. The actual game is on this parition (the non adopted partition).

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] cal002:
Encryption makes it complicated. You'd have to umount but keep the dm-crypt mapping, then you could run fsck in terminal or adb shell. My advice is to keep and eye on the logs if the error repeats. If it does, then backup, format, restore.

I think if you go to storage and eject + remount the SD card it will also be checked automatically (also on boot). It should show in logcat.

No 4g connectivity, wonky APN menus

I've searched around and found plenty of people with this issue but seemingly no fix? The rom is great. Nearly perfect, except no 4g connectivity. In attempting to fix this I've also notice APNs will randomly disappear and reappear. 3g works. Any ideas? I'm using verizon. 4g was working on previous rom. At a loss
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sk1887:
Try setting this network type if you haven't: TD-SCDMA/GSM/WCDMA/LTE

At first it would stick at umts or hspap, after some minutes it finds lte. However i'm not sure if your carrier has the same behaviour, as it is cdma. I have a gsm carrier.

Anyway yeah, 4g isn't working out of the box. as I posted back a few posts ago, sometimes during a phone call I hear their voice going really far and farther and silent... I think cdma and gsm require a different ril base.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi there

I have unmounted my SD card partitions and remounted them. When having remounted the adoptable internal storage it took about 20 or 30 seconds to load I'm assuming it found some issues and fixed it. My subjective experience appears as though it's faster though could be a placebo.

In relation to playing asphalt 8 I did get a crash when playing the game again. I may submit another logcat soon via an app syslog out the terminal commands to see whether there are any further noted issues in the log.

Thanks again for that information.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] zooster:
Guys LTE doesn't work. I'd say that all the GSM part of the ril is quite unstable. Sometimes no network also on H+. It's a major issue, a deal breaker.

In Sammy Rom they light up only when touched, in this rom they light up every time I interact with touchscreen and the only solution I've found is to totally disable backlight of the buttons, but it's not a real solution.

Hi all

Earlier on today I couldn't wake up the screen on my phone. I could see the notification light flash but phone didn't respond. I needed to perform a battery pull to restart my phone.

My phone restarted successfully then I noticed my SD card is not reading. I've tried it on the mac with an SD card reader. It can't read. I rebooted the phone in recovery mode it still can't read. Grrahhh so frustrating. It's the second 128 GB SD card I've purchased. Not sure whether to purchase another SD card and pursue with this phone or just purchase another phone.

If I was to purchase another SD card would you have a recommendation.

Apologies I know it's not strictly lineage os related but I'm a bit emotional and if I change mobile I won't mod my phone immediately. I'm enjoying my lineage.

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sk1887:
Ok, do you think gapps cause the RIL problem? In my case I randomly get LTE or many times, especially in deep sleep phone goes to no-signal for no reason.

Do you have italian 3 ? It's to rule out the possibility that this carrier has problems with maintaining Lte with this rom

I think with no pressure that the rom creator should separate RILs for each device.

I've tested CM 12.1 (which is said to be the best rom), LTE is always available, however I couldn't take photos, e.g. camera didn't work

With CM 13.1 I still have the inability to connect with LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] zooster:
Yes, my provider is 3 and I can't get LTE to work. If I choose gsm/wcdma/lte I get very often signal drops with no signal. If I force on LTE it doesn't get any signal, even forcing a provider. I've read on lineage os website that in next build (tomorrow) will be included following changes, hoping that it will have some effect:

ril: Add support for imsType parcel member
android_hardware_samsung
ril: Add support for roamingProtocol parcel member
android_hardware_samsung

Another annoying bug is the mic with 3rd party apps, like whatsapp calls. The other party ears my voice good at the very beginning but it keeps fading out almost immediately.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Try changing persist.radio.add_power_save=1 in build.prop. With this sort of problem you will need to submit model numbers, firmware versions, logcat (with radio). i.e. enough info for the devs to at least have half a chance of figuring out the possible cause!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Username already in use:
I have a completely different service provider called Vimla.

I´m from Sweden.

It seems like there will be strange problems occurring after two or three dirty flashes successively. A clean flash almost always eradicates these problems for me.

I cannot find one single bug in this great rom (running 2018-02-15 version).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sk1887:
Hello, I will try your suggestion. I did post two logcats a few posts ago and my model (g900f), including my current baseband

---------- Post added at 09:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

I was not supposed to actually dirty flash, because I was coming from 6.0.1 so it was necessary to wipe.

I noticed that other user had a signature in italian, so I asked him about it ;) Looks like it works for some, still... I keep getting no signal out of the blue, nonetheless the nougat look really feels there.

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------

I tried many of those network settings, sometimes i get LTE with 3 (222-99) and sometimes I finally take Wind signal (222-88), but most of the time it is stuck at H+ with slow speed (~12 Mbps)

"global" setting seems to work better, but soon you'll get no more APNs in the list, meaning no access to internet but a signal...

I think in our case, we suffer for the roamingProtocol part. Let's hope!

Buona serata :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
I get this too but haven't been able to replicate it to get a logcat. Settings>Network & Internet>Mobile Network>Advanced>Access Point Names>Tap the selected Carrier. Tap save.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sk1887:
What if the list is completely gone? At least when it is empty, I tried to create an apn and I am unable to solve your way... :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:

[MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION] neither with last build (22.02.18) LTE works. I don't know if it's a general problem or it's related to specific bands. My provider (3 ita) uses band 3 (1800) and 38 (2600) and lte is never locked. Whenever I force lte only I get no signal. Never had such a problem with Sammy based roms.

For your knowledge my bootloader is CRA2 and baseband is CQK3.

Is it possible to fix it? Lack of lte is a deal breaker [emoji17]

Hello, can you try adding "persist.radio.add_power_save=1" in build.prop ? add before last line, anywhere. Today I tried going with this, as suggested I get more time with LTE on.

I don't suggest LTE only, as an option, because you wouldn't get phone calls, as we don't have VoLTE.

Also in network settings I have set "Global" and in phone info (*#*#4636#*#*) I have LTE/UMTS auto (PRL)

Phone takes still a while to choose LTE, it probably is a power saving feature we don't know.

I can't ever get LTE. Not for a second. Maybe in your area you get a band different than mine. With lte discovery app can you please read the band?

So here is the logcat. Around 15:00 I selected LTE only and I got no signal, then I tried to force a provider but it didn't lock on it, so I reverted back to gsm/WCDMA preferred and I got signal back.
