Agree that it is a bit tiny ... on the bright side: It takes up less space than the separate percentage number display while I would not want to miss the precise number to track the battery state. So, I am OK with it and it seems to be a general LOS change as you pointed out.

Where are the detailed settings for location?

Hi,

in LineageOS 15.1 I could set whether location should work with GPS or mobile cells only or with both. I don't find that in LineageOS 16. I only can turn location on and off. Especially to reduce battery drain with mobile cells only this is important. Where has this setting gone?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bege10:
Go to status bar settings, there you have more options now.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] js-xda:
Your post triggered me actually to find the answer to this issue:

Click on the drop down menu of the location setting in the quick access menu - there you can change e. g. to "GPS only" instead of "High accuracy".

New question: Would anyone know how to lock the setting that "GPS only" is used and not "High accuracy"? Upon switching location off/on, the setting is reverted to "High accuracy" on my phone.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Hellisonearth:
You are Sure there are more options now than before? Still 3 types. I didnt ask about that, i was pointing out the change. Of course i tried the different settings before Posting.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Hellisonearth:
Think i reported IT already weeks ago. When i accept a WhatsApp call, the 901f reboots. Again today with the 8. June Rom. I am wondering, can a flashing process be faulty without error messages? The audio issue i sometimes get is corrected by installing the Rom again manually. Then it randomly appears in new nightlys, so i think its not the rom but the flashing process thats causing it.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bege10:
Thank you very much, I got confused by long pressing button vs. drop down menu.

Reverting to "High accuracy" happens here also, even if set to battery saving in More Settings.

Maybe I misunderstood you. I didn't have the option to show the number within the icon before the update. I can now chose to have the number in or next to the icon or none.

I've installed LineageOS 16 without problems. Everything works perfect except one problem with the battery. I switch off the phone in the night and in the morning the battery is empty. The curious thing is that if I restart the phone in TWRP and power off, the battery doesn't loose charge and in the morning is full. Help, please.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] andreoide:
Use the search option here, (battery drain) and you find this issue is known and spoken about.

Add: June 24

Another option is to switch off data and WiFi overnight so you can have your rest, and count you loose like 5-7% battery. That's what I do.

On kccat6 (901F) I have some programs like a Navigation-app. When I look at the permissions of the app, I see some permissions that can be turned on/off.

But there are also advanced permissions (and sometimes there are a lot) that you can't control. With permissions manager they seem to be manageble, but they restore to the defaults as soon as you use the app.

Are there ways to change these advanced permissions permanently?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Hellisonearth:
using 901F, someone and I have reported this problem. Noone answered or had a suitable answer. This already happend with my S4 custom rom. Its certainly not a modem or bootloader problem. I think the problem lies within the specific nightlies or their building. I had the 19 June nightly without any sound problems, then I updated on the 29 June nightly, and there the bug is again. Re-installed the latest nightly 5 times, always had the problem again. I cannot listen to one song in Spotify without losing the headphone sound.

I thought its Spotify, but it also happens with youtube and VLC. there is also a bug, that the song is paused without me doing it. I check my phone for viruses from time to time too, but nothing.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] js-xda:
Running 1.7. & 2.7. builds on G901F, I seem to be able to reproduce this issue as well:

Youtube - no issue within a few minutes, no further testing

MX Player - no issues within 3-4 min, no further testing

Folder Player (MP3 player) - abrupt stop multiple times but not always after a short while (3-5 min) running with screen locked - only way to restart audio is moving to next track (pause/play doesn't do anything) or even disconnect/reconnect headphones

Wondering: Could it be something about reaching a certain "sleep"/"low energy" state? So far, I never experienced an abrupt stop with active screen.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] js-xda:
Have you had any build since 29.6. that hasn't had the bug? Builds from 1./2./6.7. presented the bug for me.

Update build 7.7.: Eureka - it works (playing e. g. a full album without any hickup)! Funny thing is indeed that there were no obviously to audio related entries in the changelog - while several news pages mention that the July Android updates address also issues in the media framework.

Update build 9.7.: And there is the bug again. But now only after 5 to 8 songs - quite a bit longer. Wondering now, "how much" it was actually gone with build 7.7. or whether it took just too long.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] miko00:
I think YouTube uses another mechanism via Google account.

I tried Screen Mirroring with Sony Blueray player as well as Samsung SmartTV and on both devices I experienced reboots. :eek: Now I'm on RR v6.2.1 and on this ROM it works properly.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] andreoide:
Did you do a clean install to RR?

Than that does not explain why it is working for you now. A clean install of this thread-rom here would probably had the same effect....

But.... Nice to hear you're pleased with RR.

For me its too much settings and fancy things I have no use for. I like plain Lineage as cvxda made here.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] miko00:
I did clean install of old RR. I wanted to verify if the version based on Android 8 will work better with RAM and have better battery life, because some apps in background are getting closed too early. I know it's not the fault of ROM, sometimes 2 Gigs is just too small for Android 9. But this time I wanted to try RR. It's hard to say if there's a difference in RAM usage, maybe a slight. But I noticed that Miracast that didn't work on Lineage 16, on old RR works fine, so I stuck with this ROM for a now. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] andreoide:
Stupid me

I did the laundry including my S5 901F....

And no, its not water resistant as I hooped.

Pulled battery, dried with towel paper and positioned it for like one hour for a hairdryer with only COOL COLD air (!) , than positioned it for a PC case fan overnight.

Assuming it was completely dry I tried power up and hey! Working!!!!

But the joy was short, I barely could backup data of internal memory, than screen went dead though still I had connection to the data so that's a good thing backed up now.

Happy me

A year ago I bought 2 S5+'es for testing and "having a backup phone" so I'm just a lucky basterd now being able to post here with my "new" phone again.

The importance of backing up internal and external data and backup weekly with Titanium Backup is proven again. Let my stupidity in the fist part of this posting be a lesson for all bad things your phone might not be up against....

Puzzled me

I wonder after flashing Corinna's cvxda's masterpiece of Lineage here, why now Gallery after reboot showing no pictures?

I can get it to work to completely shutdown, reboot and use the PlayStoreApp Scanmediaplease but its annoying...

I can't tell why or what because I can do warm reboots and no problem, than out of the blue it happens again, very frustrating....

Anyone have an idea?

Peace! :good:
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Not-Aus:
Well, I'm done with the s5+ and Lineage. Lineage seems not to be that masterpiece for this device as you say.

Anyways there might be a problem with the opengapps that i believe you have flashed. I had similar problems with that.

What I found out was that when one of the Google Apps was updated by Playstore, it started working absolutly normal after updating.

What helped me was to install an old version of the opengapps (30 days old or so) after a clean flash, because nearly all Google Apps were updated in the meantime and "repaired" themselfes after letting the Playstore update them.

Give it a try!
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] bege10:
Do you mean the LOS privacy guard? I cannot confirm that these permissions are restored to the default. Does the respective app has permission to change system settings?
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] andreoide:
I tried other gapps. But sadly that did not change anything, I'll have to live with it, but thanks for the suggestion!

I think Corinna cvxda created a masterpiece, because when installing 3rd party ROM like lineage and others you have to accept certain difficulties and or abnormalities.

The time and effort she took and take porting LineageOS to our beloved S5+ 901F, I daily respect her works for that. She build it expecting nothing back for it. Those kind of people earn my up most respect in a split second :good:

But that's my view to this ROM, anybody else is entitled to have other thoughts of course.

Thank you again though for thinking with me.

I wish you well :)

Peace.

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] snsnse:
The phone app frequently loses the contacts in the "favorite" tab (after a couple days or so) on my G901F. This seems to be a bug as it has never happened on any of my other LOS 16 phones, and I can't think of any config option. Is anyone else having this problem?

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] schwatter:

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Hellisonearth:
i have tested the build 7.7 and had the bug. Basically I have tested every 2nd nightly since the beginning of July or so. With no conclusion. So i still dont know whats causing it. What i noticed is, that sometimes i load the newest nightly, and after a day, the nightly from that day is sometimes gone (as in disapears from the nightlys list completely).

I am using the august 3rd release now, and have no sound bug.

What i have also found out is, that in Spotify, i can spot the bug really fast, because it stops in the first song. But when I use a bugged nightly with VLC player and listen to music, i can almost listen 30-40 Minutes without the music stopping.

So it seems that different apps react differently or access the audio differently.

Are you using over the screen blending apps (permission to appear over other apps)? I am using Twilight, but it seems not to have any effect on the audio bug.

my power button is broken now, so i cannot force a restart into twrp to re-install the nighty for testing without root.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] js-xda:

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] snsnse:
Well, I have several Samsung devices running on LOS 16 for my family without this (admittedly minor) problem, so it does not seem to be a bug of the LOS core code. I don't think it's typical for custom ROMs, many show equal or better quality than stock.

So if this is device-specific, it'd be interesting to know if the dev's still find the time to work on this ROM?

Don't get me wrong, I highly appreciate all the work that has been done here, just being curious...

Since installing 190812 (with August security patch level) on my G901F (kccat6), I am observing double the battery drain than usual which is not attributed to a specific app. Before (with 190806), I had no issues. Anyone observing the same?

EDIT: Reboot to recovery and back to system seems to have resolved the issue.

See above - maybe applicable for you as well?

ADDITION 18.8.: I had to repeat doing reboot to recovery and back to system after flashing 190816 (only update done since initially reporting the issue) to get rid of the battery drain.

As you can read here and here, [MENTION=3419717]cvxda[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5876638]xamio[/MENTION] by mistake created the current 3.10.104 kernel from upstream (plain Linux) and they are now in the progress of updating to the latest from the Google android-3.10.y branch to get all the Android-specific patches as well. Kernel 3.10.77 is as far as they got.

As an experiment, I just flashed this 3.10.77 kernel (the boot.img from the Feb. 03 RR build) onto the boot partition of my phone running Lineage OS 14.1 (Feb. 02 build), to see how that works. The phone boots fine, so I'll use it for a while to see if things are better or worse. (And I cross fingers that it won't make the cellular connection unstable again.) Update: WiFi doesn't work with this kernel (can't be enabled), but for the rest it seems to run smooth. But due to the malfunctioning WiFi, I cannot further test unfortunately.

I also encountered this issue with the camera app provided in the OS. However, I discovered that using the Google Camera (it's discontinued from Google Play, I have no idea why, but I could access it from my "All" apps screen; you can find it online easily) is a good alternative. The front camera takes normal pictures, the flash works, you name it.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] cvxda:
There's an easier way I just documented in the thread's header message: Remove the directory .secure_android (note leading dot) from your SD card and all is fine. You can do this either from TWRP, or alternatively from an ADB root shell. Assuming your SD card is called 1234-ABCD:

kccat6xx:/ # cd /mnt/media_rw/1234-ABCD
kccat6xx:/mnt/media_rw/1234-ABCD # rm -r .secure_android

Again, note the leading dot in the filename. Make sure to access the SD card via /mnt/media_rw, not via /storage. After that, you can access the SD card from File Manager just fine.

As a side note, the file manager is almost not needed anymore. The builtin file manager available via Settings -> Storage is pretty helpful already.

HTH,

[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Stamgastje:
I tried flashing the latest kernel provided by [MENTION=3419717]cvxda[/MENTION] (the kernel 3.10.96 from the Feb. 10 RR build) on my phone running Lineage OS 14.1 (Feb. 02 build), but also with this kernel, WiFi doesn't work on LineageOS. See attached screenshots. Something must be different between RR and LinOS.
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] cvxda:
What you're doing is just not feasible. There are noticable differences between the old 3.10.104 kernel and the new 3.10.96 kernel. It's not just a pure update based on another upstream source, it contains major changes in behaviour which require changes elsewhere in the device tree. If you want to test this by yourself, either run RR, wait for [MENTION=5876638]xamio[/MENTION] to build a new LinOS based on those changes, or build your own LinOS based on https://github.com/github-cygwin/kccat6xx-roomservice/blob/cm-14.1/roomservice.xml.

Corinna
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Stamgastje:
You're right... but I'm just somewhat surprised that there are such substantial functional differences. I was under the impression that a difference in subversion (major = 3; minor = 10; sub = 96 vs. 104) designated security and bug fixes only, as with the normal Linux kernel. Of course there are major differences between plain Linux and Android, but as LinOS was running on a mixed Android/Linux kernel already (the 3.10.104 kernel), I thought there would not be any major differences between that one, and the new (full-Android) 3.10.96 kernel. But I was obviously mistaken.

In any case, I'll patiently wait for a new build by [MENTION=5876638]xamio[/MENTION]. :)
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] cvxda:
In theory you're right, as long as there's no change to the device configuration. However, there is such device-specific change in configuration as, for instance, the switch from ZSWAP to ZRAM.

Apart from that, did you only change the kernel itself or did you also exchange the kernel modules, at least wlan.ko?

Corinna
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] cvxda:
Sorry, no.

Corinna
[Galaxy S 5 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Stamgastje:
Thanks for the hint. I planned to do so, but apparently forgot it... What happened: I had already copied the complete RR modules directory next to the original (LinOS) one (/system/lib/modules), but apparently I forgot to swap them... :rolleyes:

I now swapped the two dirs and everything seems to work fine with the 3.10.96 kernel. Or at least, WiFi works again. ;)
