Although even though I'm sorted it think we need a way to fix hardbricked devices because the Moto g5plus and g4s have fixes but I haven't found any that work for Cedric devices
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] infixremix:
How did u fix
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] rajibahmed:
I had insurance so I just replaced the whole device
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] infixremix:
Wtf insurance covers it ?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] rajibahmed:
Ish. I had Argos insurance and they basically take any dead device. Plus they don't check if it's been tampered with . I just said it didn't turn on

How the hell did u hradbrick ur device without an unlocked bootloader. And idk I think that after you start tampering with the os and system it kills ur warranty. You'll have to chat with someone at Motorola
[HTC Excalibur] takeastand:
I've got a problem with my Excalibur that it automatically locks after a few seconds even if auto lock is disabled or set to any time, i.e. 24 hours. I've got the HTC_WWE_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship rom installed. My phone is also sim and application unlocked. Any help would be great!
[HTC Excalibur] takeastand:
Any ideas?
[HTC Excalibur] rushless:
I have not had that problem. Have you done a hard reset and it still does it?

I do not use the auto lock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] smarcin:
Yes, I searched the Sprint Note 8 forum. So, I have a buddy with a T-Mob Note 8. He tried to video call me. Nothing happened. So, I went looking for the N8 manual. If you get the manual from T-Mob or VZN, they show an icon of a video camera on the dialer screen, to the left of the call button. We lucky Sprint customers have our vm icon there. WTF?! Are we the onlyN8 owners that can't do video calls? Is this because we don't (yet) have Sprint's version of "VoLTE?" Do any of you who bought an unlocked N8, running on Sprint, have this problem? Thanks for any light you can shed on this problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] randomfied:
I don't know but the more time I spend with a stock note I think I could do. Perhaps my first non rooted phone since flip phones. Still got time to make the change top Verizon or AT&T... You know and actually have a useable network...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] smarcin:
Now wouldn't that be EXCITING!! :D

Actually, maybe T-Mob? Or is that like jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire?

I actually think you're right. This phone is great without rooting. Perhaps if we get the U version of software available for the Note 8, that might be worth flashing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] LordLugard:
I'm trying to parse your dilemma here.

Video calling works just fine depending on what video calling service you're trying to use. There's a myriad of them out there, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Hangouts...just to mention a few.

As far as i know, there's no native interoperable carrier-to-carrier plain-jane video calling (like native SMS, for example).

Just saying "video calling" doesn't work, or that your T-Mobile buddy couldn't video call you doesn't tell us much. Was your T-Mobile buddy using any of the aforementioned video calling apps/services?

I video call family on 3 continents using either WhatsApp or FB Messenger (on iOS and Android) just fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] tkgadgetman:
My note 8 came with google DUO. I thought that was androids version of Facetime.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] LordLugard:
I guess you can refer to it as such, although Hangouts predates Duo. But for you to "Duo" someone else, they have to be using Duo as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] DaggettBeaver:
If Sprint included its own video calling option, I imagine it would only work with other Sprint users, anyway. Just use one of the many video calling apps that your friends have and can use.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] smiley45:
We will be getting it with a Volte update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] creepinm3:
Sprint doesn't offer VoLTE though?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] Stank0:
I thought I had it on S8+. There was an option to make calls using LTE data if I remember correctly. I don't see that same option on Note 8 yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] creepinm3:
Weirdly that call had to begin on Wi-Fi and it would be a seamless transition to cellular data right?

Apparently the note will get that same feature, but who's to say how long until it does?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] yneill:
There is a option in s8+ to do it as i own both phones note 8 doesn't yet I can't wait to be able to surf and talk
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] stanglifemike:
Wow, and here I was thinking XDA members were smarter than that..... Just so you'll know in the future : each carrier's network varies depending on your location. That's right! How they perform in your town isn't the same as how they perform everywhere else in the US!

Where I live, just outside of Atlanta, Sprint is has the best coverage and fastest speeds. AT&T and Verizon are gradually improving, while T-Mobile is still a joke.

The more you know....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] BlueFox721:
Sprint will update for VoLTE as soon as available like they did for S8 but Sprint does not have built in video calling like T-Mobile...after trying to force the setting, it still doesn't work because there is no app...with T mobile, there is a hidden app that links to the setting...Google duo, hangout, Skype are the only options so far
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] smarcin:
Me, too!

And, by the way, my other T-Mobile friend has a Note 4. On her dialer screen, there's an option for video calling...Just saying.

I have an unlocked sprint phone, looking at the dial screen, the button to the left is for sms. I believe this is one of the many things sprint has never supported.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] k12 TN:
The Note 8 feature for Sprint Video Calling is still unavailable and Sprint customer care had no answers for me! The video caller icon should be on the dialer not the voicemail icon
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] BlueFox721:
Sprint does not hasve video calling they include duo
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] k12 TN:
That's what the issue is...the video call feature is a phone feature that allows you to video call other galaxy 8 owners...however its been disabled by Sprint when you buy a Note 8 from there network...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] BlueFox721:
I believe that video calling is carrier specific...meaning AT&T can't call T-Mobile

I enabled it on Sprint asnd it never connected...reverted to phone because the other end could not recieve
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] davnav899:
I saw a post in the tmobile forum and it said of going into ims settings with a shortcut maker, from there i enabled some random settings in the menu(mostly the ones tgat said video call), but my sprint note 8 now has shown the video camera icon in the contacts page when i click a name, but this dissapears after some use. When clicking the icon, it opens the calling but it doesnt go through.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] mgullans:
True story..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] :
Must use third party app for video calls. Most all other carriers have the network capability.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] SMT170:
I have the S8plus on Sprint. My BF has Note 8 on AT&T. He was trying to video call me but it didn't work as my phone doesn't have option for video calling. He also tried to send phone stickers while he was on the phone with me. While he was able to send them I never got them & I haven't been able to use that feature as well to send them. I contacted Sprint & went to their retail store where they do repairs. Sprint doesn't have the video calling feature due to data. They said that when you are on phone you don't have data connection for internet & data is needed for video calling. Supposedly they are going to be making the feature available however I read this has been an issue for a few years already so I'm not holding my breath. I'm happy overall with Sprint. Had AT&T & Verizon prior but too many dropped calls, no signal, & high bill. I switched to Sprint & while the majority seem to dislike Sprint when I compared the pricing for plan to the others I decided to stick with Sprint.

Hopefully they will get with the game & the times & make the video calling feature available on the very phones that have the capability to that we pay for.

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] 0657_Code:
Today I learned that hotplugging SIM cards is not a good idea.

"It's just a SIM card, what could possibly go wrong?"

I did this today and after about one minute my h850 rebooted (soft reboot). Since then it continues to freeze for a moment after boot and then reboots. It doesn't matter if the SIM-card is inserted or not. This phone is running the official LOS 20170704 weekly and TWRP (fortunately).

I could reproduce this on a falcon also running LOS from June or July. Restoring the data partition from a backup resolved the bootloop on this phone and it is running fine with the SIM for several hours now.

This means that inserting the SIM while booted must have messed with something on the data partition.

Unfortunately the backup on my h850 is quite a few days old, and more importantly I got a few SMS (from the last few days) right before the bootloop started. Because of this, restoring from the backup is not very inviting and I decided to try to find the source of the bootloop and fix it.

At first I will try to grab some logfiles (logcat & kmesg) - however this is only possible on the falcon for now, because the h850 is not authenticated. I thought about other ways to solve this riddle in case this doesn't show where I have to look.

Since I can reproduce the issue on a second phone I thought about doing a backup right before and another one afterwards. Since the bootloop occurs due to a change on the data partition it must be visible if I compare both backups. I have a simple problem with this though: I don't know how to compare them. Thus, my first question: Which tool can I use to do this?

If this is not feasible for some reason I would like to rescue some of the data a least. Since I can boot into TWRP I can access the internal storage from my computer. I would also like to save SMS (at the very least) and application data (nice to have). What's the best way to do this? Where are the SMS located? Copying everything to the internal storage and then to the computer would certainly be possible, but also mess up permissions big time.

Thanks for taking your time to read this and help me. I hope I really learned my lesson about impatience, regular backups and taking extra precautions and this will not happen again.

Update: For whatever reason I can't get my falcon to bootloop anymore.

Might seem like a rude question but have any idea on ETA?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
Yes, sorry, have been busy, I'll post a build from Very late August as currently I have issues with building that I need help resolving. Mainly because LineageOS moved to new kernel configs for the regular S5 and so I need to modify one in with the Sport stuff...

Also I currently took my dad's S5 Sport back to stock so I cannot test myself at the moment. If anyone has a spare S5 Sport for testing, I'd gladly take it to finish this ROM and make it official :)

No need to apologise, I appreciate what you're doing and I understand it takes some time.

If you need another S5 Sport, you can get one here https://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=112560349301&fdback=1

I bought mine from the same seller, no issues. It even arrived days early!

Nice! My father is considering a new phone here so I'll probably hold out for a bit of time and see if that happens. If not, I'll try and scrape some extra money together for another phone... I have a few to many because of other projects, AKA Android 4 Lumia so I have like 7 windows phones :)

Anyway, I'll get that build posted tonight and update the OP

Substratum OMS Overlay Support?

It would be great if you could add Substratum support. I just flashed a CM14 build and Substratum in Legacy Mode left me with a bootloop.

Link below may provide some info on how you can do this...

https://xdaforums.com/apps/substratum/reference-lineageos-substratum-support-t3580276
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
Sorry about that mate! I should update the OP to mention this for now. I'll try my best to add support but right now I need to make the trees build able again with a new kernel defconfig. The current build is good in everything else?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
Don't know quite yet... I flashed cm13 for the time being from an older thread.. I'm a hardcore themer... Everything i have is themed. It's nice to have device info on my desktop with my channel branding.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
I personally just go with a Stock Google AOSP look myself, dose not match my YouTube :)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
To me the biggest issue is the white background though... and since this phone has a AMOLED screen well the benefits of a black theme to me are higher... 1 Eats less battery (turns pixels off), 2 Easier on the eyes, especially in dark places, 3 to me it just looks cool.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
Yeah, I know what you mean. Nougat got better with the black interface but Oreo went to white so yeah...
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
I've decided to put up with default theme for a while... CM13 build from other thread was too buggy.

Camera and Flashlight from the pull down notification bar don't work. Got a Substratum Theme to function in Legacy Mode, but it had some bugs.

The built-in root is adb only. I have the file to enable apps you may want to share it. I'll upload it here sometime, also will give you a logcat..

Also I got ViPER Audio working with the IO fix.. Had to set SELinux Permissive to install the drivers.

And lastly, Changing the GPU Governor in Kernel Auduitor causes a reboot.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
Here is a zipped Logcat, Bug report, and the SU Addon to add root access for apps.

SU Addon gets flashed in TWRP.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
If anyone needs root, then you can find it on the Extras tab of the LineageOS downloads page. I'll try to work on the phone today but my knowledge is not very good still :(
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
The root I uploaded works just fine, i haven't ran into any issues.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
I need someone to test the boot2.img i uploaded to the Downloads section. I know you have root so what i need is this file while the phone is running: /proc/config.gz Xplore File Manager should do it...

That file should exist as i set it in the defconfig on the last working kernel. this should help me get the config the phone runs on so that hopefully it will build with the new kernel!

Thanks!

edit: it may be a good idea to backup your phone before you try, just a precaution... :)
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Chorniy:
Greetings SJR (Sam)! Is this ROM multilanguage?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
Should work with as many languages as Lineage does!

Has anyone tested the boot image and get that config.gz file? I'm still trying to figure out the new kernel defconfig issues.... Sorry about how long it's taking
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
Sure I'll test it, but I'm going on a trip for about a week. I may get to it when I get back.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
Found another bug... GPS don't work.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
Okay, odd I never caught this when I was testing on my father's Sport. I'm working on that new defconfig for the newer kernel LOS made with new klte defconfigs. Once that is complete and I can build, I'll release just an update with that. Then we can add OMS and fix some errors :)

Sorry this takes so long, lack of a device here for now is hard and my experience level isn't enough although I'm learning quite a bit. Samsung variants are a pain for sure...
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] FanboyStudios:
No problem at all! I can wait, I'm currently in Alabama just using public wifi. No internet access at the house as it's being worked on. Thanks!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] rhyler:
I cant seem to get this build to work myself. I get insert SIM over and over and no network, so I have rolled back to the previous version where SMS did not work for now. Appreciate you bringing this back to life.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
You have to wipe clean entirely in TWRP before you flash. It's odd and I have no clue how to figure this one out. Wipe all partitions and then flash it, that works for me when I did it
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] rhyler:
No joy. Wiped it 100% and still insert sim.

I can roll back to the 4/18 version and it works fine.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sjrmac:
Sorry about that! If you could log it, that would be awesome, then I could look at it and see what's acting up. I personally didn't have the issue so I don't know :) again, my apologies!
