[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
Are you referring to the built in LineageOS Updater or one of those Play Store Apps?

I ask this because I recall a similar question (from another member) and it took me a little bit to realize that this member was referring to one of the Play Store Apps.

The Official Lineage Team have/has/had never released any Play Store Apps and, quite some time ago, i had asked one of the Official Lineage Team Developers regarding this and I was provided a response that was exactly what I needed, bottom line and to the point.

I was told "At this point in time, there has never been nor any plans to release any stand alone apps. If there has/is anything, like this, that were/was released, they would provide it via their official website and never through any type of App Markets. The built-in LineageOS Updater is there for a reason and is there to do exactly what it was designed to do without the requirement for any stand alone apps.....".

I'm not lecturing you at all [MENTION=5110154]fipsy[/MENTION]...

I'm just asking, as well as providing some additional information for those who may not know about this.

_____

I was referring to the separate Experimental Migration Builds that they had used going from CyanogenMod to LineageOS as well as from LineageOS 13.x to 14.1.

For example, if you had wanted to go from CM14.1 to LS14.1 without having to wipe your system from scratch. You first flashed the Experimental Build and then after it was done, and fully booted up to the OS, then you would reboot back to recovery and installed the LS14.1 Nightly build. Then you were all set (i know that there was more to it like GApps and such).

YES. Lineage Updater perform a Upgrade to 15.1 without any confirmation ;o) respect!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mrmarioman:
So I did a factory reset and updated to Lineage 15.1. And you can really notice the difference. It definitely runs smoother now. Great rom, and zero bugs/problems for me so far. Cheers. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
That should not happen. My S5 updater refused to do this and directed me to the Wiki for upgrade instructions. i.e. ensuring you have the appropriate gapps ready to install at the same time.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sosic2121:
When I try to flash 15.1 I keep getting error 7.

I downloaded the file(klte) twice and did a factory reset. Twrp version is 3.0.2.

G900FXXU1CQB2

What am I missing here?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] j1gga84:
you have to update your TWRP recovery to latest version 3.2.2 :good:

regards
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
and Baseband his is old.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sosic2121:
With new twrp error is gone and phone booted. Is there any reason why I should flash some newer baseband?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Better battery, more reliable modem, less spontaneous reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] swiftbones74:
+1 update like the man says. He speaks the truth.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] sosic2121:
He won me over already. Looking for new new baseband. Anyone has any links maybe? ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mario24601:
Couple days after upgrade: some random reboots, rotation not really working all the time, does get hot with YouTube and battery draining a bit faster and maps won't work.

However, I do appreciate all the work to get Oreo! I'm sure these issues will be fixed in upcoming updates. Great work devs!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vectra246:
Today dirty flash 15.1 over latest 14.1

It seems all to be working.

I'll give a update in a few days
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] wieman01:
I was about to ask that very question. I plan on upgrading in a couple of weeks also. Let me know how you fare. I will skip a few Nightlies before I dirty-flash myself.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mossolb:
Google maps? It's working for me.

Dirty flashed 15.1 over the last 14.1 nightly release last night as I don't know if I have to redo the adoptable storage. Can't say anything about the battery yet but some apps feel snappier and rest is the same. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mario24601:
Yeah Google maps. I had done total wipe and clean install. Phone was getting pretty hot. Had to revert back to 14.1
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mossolb:
Strange one.

So spending a few hours with more it looks like I'm getting the no LTE issue people have been bringing up with 15.1. Tried editing x.ispsn back to n.ispsn which was a no go. Reverted back to 14.1 and now I can't get LTE there either. I can get it with stock Sprint FW though.

Looks like I may have to get the newer SIM card? Strange my SIM card is listed as known not working, yet was working up until flashing 15.1. So strange.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Couchy:
I also have no LTE on Sprint. There's already a bug report here you can watch:

https://jira.lineageos.org/projects/BUGBASH/issues/BUGBASH-1986?filter=allopenissues
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mossolb:
I'll be keeping watch for sure.

Now I gotta try to get LTE working on 14.1 again.

TWRP-Backup and Restore

Hello, I'm using a G900F with last LOS 14.1. A 256GB SD card is integrated as internal memory. It is also encrypted. Recovery is TWRP 3.2.2.0. It works without problems!

Before I make the update to LOS 15.1, as usual, I created a backup with TWRP to an external USB stick. All other 'important' data that TWRP does not back up was automatically synced to my server at night with 'FolderSync'.

I have another G900F with a broken display for testing purposes. On this I tried to restore the TWRP-Backup of my 'Daily G900F'. On this G900F I would like to test the LOS 15.1 update.

And that does not work: after restore and deleting the cache it boots though. After a few seconds on the homescreen it says that the 'System App' is not responding. After a few more seconds, it will restart and hang on the LOS logo (let it run for several hours). After reinserting the battery, the whole thing repeats itself.

Also the incorporation of the (new) SD-Card in the Test-Device as internal memory BEFORE playing back the backup does not change it. (8GB Data was written on the SD-Card).

Now I'm also wondering how the backup after loss of the main device should help me at all! Restore to the same phone I have not tested, but that will probably not work.

Is it not possible to backup an device with this configuration with TWRP or has anyone done that?

Many thanks for help!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jerfsonpaiva:
The finger print on 15.1 Oficial is work for all?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Yes, with upto date baseband and normally a clean install if you have had problems in the past.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jdrch:
Not only is this unnecessary, you don't have to install a full stock ROM to update your modem and baseband. You can flash the latter partitions by themselves in Odin without affecting the system or data partitions.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jerfsonpaiva:
But they works fine on 14.1

Tge problem start on 15.1
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
The only way I have found to resolve fingerprint problems is to have latest baseband and a clean install (proper format of /data to reset the Trustzone).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jdrch:
Confirmed that you can update from 14.1 to 15.1 by dirty flashing 15.1 + OpenGApps 8.1 + SU add-on. Phone runs very well, and that new AMOLED dark theme is so clutch. Thanks [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION] & Co. for the great job as always.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
Thank you all very much for confirming this! :thumbup:

I wish that this specific change could have been even briefly stated in the LineageOS announcements regarding this fact of no longer requiring the Experimental Migration builds (as had been the case since I could remember in the early CyanogenMod days).

This is a very huge step for the Lineage Team! :cool:

I have download the last firmware from SAM MOBILE to my 900m.

Already with the Lineage.

Can i only flash the file using Odin or need something to do before?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
I don't have this variant but, yes you will need to use Odin for stock Firmware flashing.

Just an FYI in case you may not know...

Are you aware that flashing the Stock Firmware will result in your Bootloader being locked again and the stock recovery may as well be installed too?

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jerfsonpaiva:
I going to the Lineage after, on the next build.

So i know need to instal TWRP again.

Before to install the TWRP via Odin i need to unlock bootloader?

Or the install the TWRP already do this?

Ok. My only doubt was if I had to do something before using Odin. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Deep Space:
Updated since yesterday and everything seems to work fine, I have found some errors (like the rotation) and missing functions (like onehanded mode and rounded battery icon) but nothing important.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
I'm curious as to what you're looking to ultimately accomplish by flashing the Stock Firmware and then turn around to unlock the it again, reinstall TWRP and LineageOS?

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
The following link is to the Baseband Modem Update for the G900M device.

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569966172

This is from a trusted source and one of the Official Lineage Team Developer haggertk.

This is flashed via Odin using the AP slot and only updates the Firmware Modem for your device without loosing your LineageOS.

Usb OTG no deep sleep

Does anyone know why the USB OTG does not let the tablet goes into deep sleep ?

Even if an empty usb otg cable (no consumers) is connected the tablet, then is not sleeping.

I tested the same thing on my S5 but i need on my tablet (tab s + lineage ) because I'm using this setup for a project with tablet-in-car and thus my battery is killed.

I tried to search a lot but it seems that usb host suspend is a problem on multi-roms even official one.

There is a patch fix or can someone give an ideea how could i solve this problem ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vectra246:
As promised the update.

After a reboot I experience a massive battery drain so I have decided to make a clean install.

Also did a firmware update to G900FXXU1CQB2

After the clean install still a battery drain. About 6 hours useable with a full charge.

I will see it in the next few days if it will be better.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Why CQB2? It's old and buggy. Not an upgrade!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] wieman01:
What is the latest version for KLTE? I currently CQK3. Is there a more recent version out there?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
That's latest Baseband. Baseband: G900FXXU1CQK3, Bootloader: G900FXXU1CRA2 as per my sig.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kaBOOOM2k5:
Did the major update from official 14.1 to 15.1 last weekend. Did only update TWRP to latest 3.2.2, Baseband was already up-to-date.

Did the update like mentioned in Changelog-16 if you came from official 14.1: only wiped /system, ART/Dalvic and cache and kept /data partition including encryption. Then flashed LOS 15.1, the same Gapps package size (nano) but for 8.1. and addon-su for 8.1

Until now (2 days yet) it runs very smooth, no battery drains so far, but i did not test every detail. Two apps (e.g. Twitch) needed to be get cleared Cache+Data within the apps-info screen, in order to get them started.

Only bugs i recognized yet:

Two times my S5 lost the complete mobile connection (empty rectangular). After digging it seems that my S5 'forgot' the APN setting, because there were no services set up. After reboot it was okay again. Strange thing is that i cannot reproduce it until now.

[MENTION=2398099]kaBOOOM2k5[/MENTION]

I had similar issues with the complete dropping of network connection, (showing the empty triangle), while using some of [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION]s earlier versions of unofficial 15.1. I also had one dropout on the latest official for KLTE, but that may be my fault.

I have a g900v, latest baseband, 7/9/18 LOS 15.1 official, latest TWRP. What are you running?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vectra246:
Probably not properly looked at the download area.

Wrong choice.

Because of vacation now first back to stock rom. Then back to LOS 15.1
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kaBOOOM2k5:
hehe thx, but it has never been easier to keep an old phone up-to-date. If i remember my first smartphone (htc touch hd), this was a horror story to get an android 2.x running ;)

my klte phone is a g900f, the rest is the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fipsy:
Thank you for your comments! You're absolutely right. It was an app that had nothing to do with the LOS development team. I didn't realize until a little later that this app was the problem and apologized as you can read in my Edit2. To warn some people who might be using the same app, I didn't want to delete what I had written before.

That's the way it should be. But Lineage Downloader App performs an upgrade without any notice. Just as it was a normal nightly update. And so it ruins your phone. :(

Getting the google now/google voice prompt instead.

So, something changed with nightly or am I missing a toggle? Or, if you do have it working, then I have to wipe and reinstall. Just need to know if it is indeed working on 11/09 nightly.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] candreva87:
Compared with unofficial builds, the official one is affected by some random reboots (three times today) and some apps like Quickpic makes the phone reboot everytime.

Battery life instead seems to be as good as it was on cm 14.0, so better than unofficial 14.1.

Last note is the battery icon on status bar which cannot be set as circle anymore :(
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] david825234:
+1 Tested with same results. One problem, though, my signal goes in and out rapidly after turning off airplane mode and the only way to fix (other than reboot) is to go to cell networks and tap carrier settings which resets the radio. Going to download offline maps and see how it works.

I hope this is leading us to identifying the problem and not just a workaround. I'm on klteusc, but the odd thing is there are several other klteusc users in this thread who said their GPS was working perfectly on the unofficial 14 and 14.1 builds. I'm not sure if this hardware or ROM related. I actually have 2 US Cellular S5s now, and I'm going to root the other one this weekend to see if the GPS issue exists on that one.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] bbeds:
I think it's just the time zone that is screwy. I have time zone set manually and time set auto from network and haven't had any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] add144:
Flashed 11/09 klteusc on C Spire (G900R7) and everything that I can find works. I don't want to jinx myself here but everything seems to really work. The literal only issue I can find is the minimum screen brightness seems to be set too low for my iteration and it causes the screen to flicker colors and get all pissy. Aside from that, good to go.

Edit:

As far as the TB location unavailable, not writable, etc. problems. I solved that by having to move my TB backup folder (and all my backups of course) from my SD card to....my SD card. You know...the other partition (?) of the SD card that became a thing in Marshmallow. I never learned the proper terminology or reason for it, so pardon my weird language.
