Yes me too.

Battery Life is terrible. I update every week though I feel I'm attaching my phone to the charger quite often.

I also experience slowness at times, though I'm not sure whether it's due to having 281 apps installed and a 128 GB SD card with half of it partitioned to shared internal storage.

I've moved some apps to internal storage though hasn't really helped.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
The SD card is always considerably slower than the internal memory. In order for it to run reasonably fast, it must be a U3 SD card (at least 30 MB/s when writing) and the read-ahead must be set at least to 1024 KB.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
I have a SanDisk I believe it's a class 10. It's there any documentation or link to help me set the read ahead value?

Thanks

How do I remove unwanted system apps? I have TB pro and they just reappear when the phone is restarted.

sunil,

Have you tried it? Any audio on your Korean phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sunilpaulmathew:
Not yet... will try this night... but audio bug will be sadly there... I guess...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] agenter7:
I'm gonna try it. Well, i will tell you about it after an hour.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] darka9:
I've just installed the official nightly and mini openGapps on klte. All good except random crashes in Launcher and CM Bug reporter. Also screen rotation was jittery on the first boot but it is fine since then. Enormous thanks to [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION] and all the other devs. I am sure in a weeks time everything will be cleared up and daily driver- ready.

And yes, forgot to mention but it was completely clean install. All system folders,caches , as well as internal/ext sd card were formatted.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] 4rz0:
Is it possible to change the system sound volume? Button clicks, lock/unlock sounds are pretty loud and they don't seem to follow media volume.

Another thing: Under 'Buttons', I set the volume keys to change media volume instead of ringer volume, but looks like that setting doesn't have any effect since my volume keys still control the ringer.

I've seen this already being reported, and it might be related to a different issue where you can't skip your music tracks with your volume keys, albeit I haven't tried that yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] prinzkazimir:
I did a dirtyflash and it works well, no issues so far. Thank you very much haggertk and cm devs for your hard work!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] cybertroll:
A few questions if you may for your dirty flash:

a) You dirty flashed from CM13?

b) You flashed it from TWRP?

c) Did you wiped anything (Dalvik cache, cache, etc)

d) Did you dirty flash gapps 7.1 too?

e) Experience overall? :)

Thanks a lot for your time.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] spolarbear:
Is this thread turning official, or do we have a separate thread for CM14.1 nightlies discussion?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rayzen6:
Nope I think. This should be reedited by dev when he'll free.

Also [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION] can u please convert this thread to XDA devdb??

Admin will do that for you.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] cchri78:
How do I get the pixel soft keys.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] dyval:
I don't mind having this stay unofficial, [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION] build is awesome and works very well. One question is true that we need to use latest GAPPS 7.1 everytime we flash an update? Thanks :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
Your gapps will stay intact flashing from build to build. No need to reflash unless you are having problems that you think might be your gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] dyval:
Thanks Bro. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
And I guess I should clarify for those who have not been through it before...

If you are coming from 13.0 (or 14.0 or anything less) you MUST flash a 7.1 gapps before booting 14.1. Like during that same recovery session immediately after flashing the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
klteduos users:

A new unofficial build is uploaded to the usual place. I haven't done anything directly to try to solve the 2nd SIM issue, but some of the telephony changes may have. If not, please get a logcat and I'll see if anything looks obviously wrong. It's a little hard to debug without having this kind of device in my hands...

This build was kicked off at the same time as official nightlies.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] haggertk:
This is the place for official along with unofficial of variants still going through bringup.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Qawnman:
Yea!!! Big ups to the devs.

Great work everyone!

Really appreciate it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sis tema:
wow...

official build read contacts from sim card?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
I would use the Kernel Adiutor App (I/O Scheduler) to set Read-Ahead. Only class 10 is normally not sufficient. This means 10 MB/s write speed. UHS Class 3 is necessary with 30 MB/sec to make it run fast.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Saber:
You can check my CPU governor and IO sched guide. By default, this ROM sets the internal storage (but oddly not also external) to 512KB which is the same value used by mainline Linux and is a "safe" value. Read-ahead should be increased according to size, where for 16GB, 1024KB is optimal and for 32GB, 2048KB is optimal. I wouldn't go too overboard as it could introduce problems (latency, etc).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
So for my 128gb SD card would 8192 be appropriate? Or would you consider that overboard so far I've set external read ahead to 2048.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Saber:
That's probably too much. Here is the full table of recommended IO read aheads that my guide is based on:

https://github.com/dorimanx/Doriman...mmit/01a314ffd004d607be285d9ea9ad6f3df6f7538f
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
I'm using a 64 GB UHS 3 card with a Read-Ahead of 1024 KB. More than 1024 KB does not bring any benefit concerning speed.

In any case, I think that the size of the read-ahead is more related to the read/write speed of the card than to the memory size of the card. Fast cards need a larger read-ahead than slow ones. This is also shown by the fact that all utilities for tuning the SD card speed allow for a change of the read-ahead.

As far as the internal memory is concerned, 512 KB read-ahead is considerably too small. With 2048 KB I reach write speeds of up to 75 MB/sec and read speeds of up to 135 MB/sec. With 512 KB buffer I can hardly reach 30 MB/second.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Atento:
Does it mean you changed the internal memory default read-ahead value? Does it has any side effects? I mean data corruption and so on...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
I've only changed the external read ahead value so far to 3072 which so far has made a world of difference. Please advise as to whether adjusting the internal read ahead is recommended or whether you were meant to refer to external read ahead instead.

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tesacrap:
I've got a problem with Google Now (ok google) in Apps.

So if I use it outside an app (lockscreen, homescreen) it works perfect. With an app opened it wants to get the google assistant activated.

Since I am using Autovoice very often, I don't want to change google now to the google assistant.

Do anybody know how I can get rid of this? So keep google now and completly deactivate the google assistant?

Usb 3.0 support?

I can't get my usb 3.0 connection work with Windows 10 (i have the correct usb 3.0 cable). It's work with oem rom but with LineageOS it doesn't. Is there any way to get it working?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
I changed both values a long time ago. I never noticed any negative side effects. Alternative kernels, such as Boeffla, have always had other default values anyway. Boeffla for example 1024 KB.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Rocthrower:
Not sure if it is what you are looking for but you can disable Google Assistant under Google Assistant Settings>Devices>Phone and toggle off. Google Now will still be there, but I'm not sure how the OK Google voice commands will work.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] tesacrap:
That's what I have done. Google now works but not when an App is opened. Then "okay google" doesn't get me to the Google now screen where I can say my commands, it wants to have the assistant activated.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi Saber

I've just been doing some random seeing if both internal and external read ahead values. Looks like there may be a sweet spot that I'm not sure of with my phone.

It's there a benchmark software that you would recommend to look at whether the settings are giving me a real performance boost?

Also I've noticed when playing asphalt 8 yesterday that there was quite a bit of choppiness in my graphics.

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] cyrillebatadiwa:
Is Sustratum theme engine working with this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
Very good question! I only know benchmark apps that read and write sequentially. It would be great if there was a test that would also perform random reads and writes with blocks of different sizes. Maybe someone knows of such a test-app.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jeremywh7:
A quick search shows these with random i/o tests...

A1 SD Bench - free tool to benchmark your phone & tablet SD card, RAM and memory, to test IO read / write speed (Quick, Long, Random I/O and Accurate) and check media performance, and compare your benchmark results online.

...and...

Parkdale: QuickAccess

Single click speed test using the filesystem. This test shows you the sequential read & write access speed and the random access speed using 4KB blocks and 32 concurrent threads.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Saber:
Androbench.

And remember, these benchmarks are all synthetic so they don't simulate real life workloads. And so I don't worry too much about read ahead values and let the users of my kernels configure it for themselves.

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

Choppiness is due to poor GPU and CPU scaling. Custom kernel may help, but going back to stock typically resolves this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Oh ok damn. I might consider using a custom kernel, and if all else fails I might try to install a stock based rom though not stock itself. in the meantime I might try the Androbench app and see how we go.

I like lineage for it's nougat 7 features and frequent security updates. I have though found gaming not as smooth.

Thanks for your help

mic issues

I'm having an issue where my mic is quiet. When I try and record audio or put the phone on loudspeaker it can't be heard. The mic gain mod doesn't work for me.

Both were not an issue when I was on touchwiz yesterday. Any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mpower25:
I used SmartPack kernel for a while. It provided considerable battery saving. But the smoothness I had on LOS was gone. Unless you do a lot of tweaking, I don't think a custom kernel will help.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Saber:
Actually, I forked Smartpack kernel and added my own changes in attempt to get back that "smoothness". Although I don't maintain it anymore, search for " LOS plus kernel".

I have been working close with the Smartpack dev to provide hints with optimisations ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
What happened to the notification settings in the On/Off menu of the new version? In the On/Off menu, you can no longer deactivate only the ring tone and the notification tone (bell symbol) as it used to be, leaving the alarm clock and media switched on. You now can only shut down EVERYTHING completely. If you only want to switch off the ringtone and notification tone, you always have to press the volume button five times or more! Sorry, but that really is impossibly!

Can one of the buttons "Total silence" or "Priority only" in the on/off menu be replaced by "Alarms only"? The latter is used very frequently. The others are used much rarely.

In addition, the default value of the "silence" button in res/xml/power_menu_settings.xml was reversed from true to false, so that it no longer switches the device mute, but loud!? This is all very unpleasant and also quite absurd, because you usually need a quick and easy way to turn off ringtones and not turn them on.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Blackburn119:
It lags because of touch boost was disabled in smartpack old version now the latest version turn it back on.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] cdrivex4:
anyone else notice 01 25 has introduced considerable visual lag when casting, audio and video is now completely out of sync by at least 3 seconds.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
I cannot confirm that. I normally don't transmit / mirror my phone's display to Chromecast. But I just did a test and the video as well as the audio are streaming to my TV synchronized and without any time lag.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] MagicRB:
I still haven't figured out what's up with the framebuffer not working, i cant write to it like on many different phones, i have never encountered this problem. I'll need the devs here probably...

I just picked up a refurb s5 and am running the latest nightly of lineage-14.1-20180125. Everything seems to work fine except I have a problem with the Belkin Wemo app not working. Originally I received a message about turning off wifi scanning in order for it to work, but that made no difference. It either sits at the getting started screen or shows I have no devices. If anyone else has had a similar experience and has fixes or suggestions other than clearing cache and uninstall/reinstall, I'd appreciate it.

SM-G900P Data not working

I just installed Lineage OS 14.1 on an SM-G900P, I think the build is one from December, but I can't remember... I will try the latest version, and reply back, but the mobile data isn't working. The data icon is just hollow, and it can't find any network operators, and I tried several different data modes, but none succeeded. The carrier I am using is Beeline (aka VimpelCom). Any help?

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] emacsomancer:

Query: what filesystems are supported for OTG usb sticks? ext4? exfat?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
I think that untrusted apps would have to be given permission to use an OTG stick, so they are covered by the system sepolicy. Which is set-up here:-

https://github.com/LineageOS/android_system_sepolicy/blob/cm-14.1/untrusted_app.te

So, from around line 192 it looks like these are the supported filesystems are:-

exfat

fuseblk

ntfs

sdcard_posix

but curiously not vfat, maybe, but I'm a little out of my depth! :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] emacsomancer:
I think this is referring perhaps to sdcards? In any case, by trial-and-error I found that my mobile recognised vfat, exfat, and ntfs formatted usb drives, but not ext4 formatted ones. (I didn't try f2fs or anything else).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
I was confused but the last change by the dev referred to sdcard and otg. But its interesting just trying to figure it all out!

Hi there!

I have recently downloaded and flashed the latest iteration of Lineage OS 14.1 2018-01-25 for the klte version of the S5.

I am experiencing considerable slow downs and audio/video desync while watching Youtube videos.

I have tried forcing gpu rendering in the developer options and reinstalling Youtube without luck.

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] liquidraver:
Same version, no slowdown / desync here.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Cyanogengod:
Is it possible that my very old battery is starting to die, causing the battery management of the Youtube app to cut down resources to it?

I noticed that 1080p videos on Youtube only offer me 480p as the highest quality setting. Also the 60FPS option never pops up.

After some google research it appears that more people have this issue with the latest Youtube update. What version of the app do you have?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mpower25:
Hey, which app makes use of the heartbeat sensor? I installed S Health but it doesn't measure heartbeat anymore...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] godofsalt:
Hey there, S Health is an app from STOCK Samsung (4 stock Rom)

That said, look for an app in Playstore that can do what you want, also, XDA is another place you might find one.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Cyanogengod:
Ok I figured out what's going wrong.

All 60FPS videos are currently restricted to 480p at normal framerate on the Youtube app. I don't know if this is exclusive to the latest iteration of Lineage OS 14.1 or a universal issue, though. It's apparently caused by the latest update which cannot be uninstalled. I'll try an older APK of Youtube and check if 60FPS videos work.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] systemcrash:
You probably suspect right - the simplest explanation is usually the right one. I have no probs on 25th nightly. 1080p synched galore. v13.01.53 from play.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
The easiest way is to use the sensors test app from the Playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=asd.vector.sensor

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 PM ----------

By the way: I'm surprised that nobody else has complained about the missing ability to mute only ringtones and notifications via the on/off menu as it was possible in earlier versions of LOS. Doesn't anyone use it? How do you mute your device at night?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mind.inc:
hi all, some of you recommended oneplus camera. It works great so far. Only problem is, that I can't use front camera with it. Is there a work-around? Stock LOS camera app does its job with front camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mpower25:
That did it! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Cyanogengod:
Could you try playing a 60FPS video on the youtube app? Does the 1080p 60FPS option even pop up in your case?

I am pretty confident that 60FPS videos are the problem, as every single one of them only offers 480p as highest quality setting.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] phalkon30:
I use DND on a schedule to mute my device each night until alarm or a preset time
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] schufti:
Hi,

I recently installed

- G900FXXU1CQE1_G900FXXU1CQB2_Baseband_Firmware

- lineage-14.1-20180125-nightly-klte

- opengapps mini

- addonsu

on my S5 SM-G900F.

So far thanks to haggertk for his endurance to bring new life to our device.

BUT: compared to the stock KK I was using up to now, the battery performance is worse than terrible.

On KK I got ~4 days of moderate use (some phonecalls, 30min email sync, whatsapp) on one charge.

On the current image I get hardly 1 1/2 day on one charge, allthough I have allready limited background data to email/whatsapp and switched to "efficient" power profile.

Question: did I miss some essential settings/tricks or is the image (newer android versions?) batterywise really that bad?

rgds,

schufti

p.s.: sorry if this was allready mentioned somewhere in the thread, but browsing through ~1000 pages it is easy to miss something.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mpower25:
I used LOS on its earlier versions, then spent a year on stock, and now I'm on 2017's last build. I can assure you that battery life improved exponentially. My build rivals with stock version on that matter. With a custom kernel it can be even better than stock.

You must be doing something wrong. Try a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] schufti:
hmm, as I was coming from stock KK I did a factory reset and full wipe, so I consider it clean install.

Will try again and report maybe at weekend if time allows.

btw: IIRC I went back to KK after stock L because of the same reason: ridiculous battery drain.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Cyanogengod:
Not trying to be rude, but let me be the first to call bull**** on +4 days of use on a single charge on KK

Maybe in the recovery lol or with a 7000mA battery pack. Even 1 1/2 days with LOS sounds a little suspicious, unless you are truly using every setting possible to cripple the CPU and only wake the device 5 times a day.

Light use (texting, google and pdf) gets me 8-9 hours on powersave and sio, on a single charge. Maybe 10, but that's absolutely it. With a CPU freq as low as possible and undervolting.
