[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] XJonathanX2:
Hi everyone!

I want to ask a question for those who are using the official 15.1, how's battery life in the last update? Last month I've been using 15.1 about 2-3 weekish and the battery performance was terrible (but I knew it could be fixed in future updates) so currently i'm on 14.1.... so there's been a couple of updates for 15.1 and I assume some bugs has been fixed but how's battery life? I appreciate a response, thank you :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Able bell:
I've been getting 2~3 days on standby with occasional phone use. This is possibly a little worse than I was getting with 14.1, but consistent with all the haggertk 15.1 builds I've been running on since April.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] J-Lindo:
Might be the Flip Cover feature. Go to Settings > Connected Devices > Smart Cover, and switch off.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Sithhy™:
Does someone know if this S-View cover would work with Lineage 15.1? Kind of been considering getting one, but if I would buy it & it wouldn't work, then that would suck...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] cdrivex4:
Last I remember those covers have a special chip in them from Samsung similar to NFC which is proprietary not going to work.

On a side Note have noticed certain things don't stick. EG twice now after a reboot the default assistant provider is reset to system even when I set it to Google.

Our battery profiles also don't stick after a reboot simple way to recreate it set phone to efficiency. reboot. check the clocks again.. efficiency is meant to limit the clocks to 1034 MHz and if I'm not mistaken only 2 too active cores. You'll find all cores of active and hitting Max CPU of 2.4 gigahertz. If someone else can try this out to confirm so that I know it's not just me.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] godofsalt:
Darn good Q! I do believe that they do work in LinageOS (14.1/15,1)! (Why else, have "Flip Flap" in the system, which makes the system look for the cover)

Can state, that the cover does feature a tiny little Magnet! (not a "Chip") Which, when opening/closeing, it triggers the different options.

But my was trashed a few years ago (dam puppy Dane just could not stop chewing in me phone!)

Hope this has helped

I ended up loading another version of opengapps once I flashed it via TWRP it worked.

I noted someone earlier mentioned that they have installed mind the gapps. are there any performance benefits to having a different version for example mind the gapps vs open gapps?

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
I would choose MindtheGapps if you desperately want Gapps. It has a very small footprint and retains the LineageOS Dialer which is handy for emergency calls.

microphone issues

Does everyone of you know if exists a updated version of micgain? The microphone was working fine for the first month but now nobody cn hear me in phone calls. (i have the same problem as i had on the lineage 14). I tried to use the old micgain file but it causes com.media errors.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] hightension:
if you look in this thread you will find someone that uploaded a micfix.zip file, works very good... if you want louder volumes you just have to edit such file and flash it
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Gio93:
thanks for the reply. i searched in this thread and i found how to edit the file. but it requires to mount sistem partition and to root then edit the file. For me this is a bit complicated. A file that i can flash via recovery would be great but i can't find it.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] brainycaleb:
For those of you who are currently using the official Los 15.1 Oreo, does the offline charging led work? I.e if you try to charge your phone when it is off, does it show any led charging indicator? And does it show charging percentage?

That's all I need for now.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
No. No percentage either.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] brainycaleb:
That's it then, I will stick with the unofficial, since there are pretty much no difference

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi Fitittome - I downloaded August 13 version for my kltedv device after having installed it my device went into a boot loop, would what you are referring to when you say the build failed - cause this? otherwise I want to describe my experience as I otherwise believe that it had to do with me being low on internal storage in which case I would like to request if possible some type of validation prior to performing an OTA update which checks for a minimum amount of storage prior to allowing an update to go through (I understand that this could potentially be bypassed via twrp directly though any form of prevention would help if this was the cause.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
No, nothing to do with your install problem. I was saying that lineage-15.1_kltechn, lineage-15.1_klteactivexx, lineage-15.1_klte, lineage-15.1_kccat6, lineage-15.1_gts28vewifi, lineage-15.1_gts210vewifi all failed to build this. They won't be re-run until next week.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Serious update bug - request for validation implementation

Hi all,

I've experienced the following issue today via the following steps on my kltedv device g900i.

* Ran Backup on twrp

* Ran OTA update

* Led to boot loop

Believed cause was that internal storage was less than 500mb prior to running update. I then proceeded to restore the backup and this time managed to clear data on the internal storage so that it had 1gb worth of free space. I then proceeded to

* Run Backup on twrp

* Run OTA update with the same downloaded file for the August 13 update

* This installed successfully.

Based on my research it would appear that lineageos would require a minimum free space on the internal storage in order to install successfully. Would any of the developers know this number? If so would it be possible to add a validation in the OTA updater package to warn users to free space on their internal storage prior to allowing it to run. (I realise this can be bypassed via TWRP, though it's a small layer of protection).

Please let me know if I should log a job on Jira or whether this forum is sufficient to get the issue raised.

Thank you.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mgp53:
Don't think that would work. Just extract the boot.IMG from the zip and install it in recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] brainycaleb:
inside the lineage rom zip, you have a file worth over 300mb, with smaller files less than 1mb each.

If you can, please just backup only your boot partition and send me the file please. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Unzip the attachment

Flash boot.img in twrp - select boot image

The boot.img is just the rom kernel - you could have just reflashed the rom - your data would still be in tact

Note the kernel has been modified for magisk use
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] MarvinMod:
For that you just need to do a full wipe and reinstall of los

For anyone who is bothered about battery life coming from Lineage 14, the current 15 ROM has terrible battery life in comparison to 14. It's also slower, laggy, not quite there yet as a daily driver. 14 rocks, thanks to DEVs for the hard work.

Is it true that LineageOS is dropping support for klte from 16.0 onwards?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
You do realise its a group of people who compile a rom from a source code & add other devices specific code to it & once compiled & meets certain requirements they submit it to lineageos for approval to become official

As long as the source code is available & the device specific hardware/code is compatible with future versions of Android there's no reason why you can't build it & submit for approval & become a device maintainer

So with respect - bit of a pointless question

It will be unofficial until the point its ready to be submitted (no major bugs) then if it's approved it becomes official

As long as there are people out there willing to spend their time in building the rom & sorting out any issues & maintaining the device tree then you should get at least an unofficial build
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Kaliaila:
It really depends more on if there is a person or persons willing to specialize it to work than any of the other stuff. It is possible that after 16 those currently developing lineageos for klte might stop, which would likely end it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Raynelfss:
It could as much as it couldn't, after all there are older devices than the S5 having development yet. It's kind of unpredictable whether the development is finishing or not. I'm glad that we've gotten so far, after all companies just trash these great devices and these developers give you brand new software into "old" devices for free. We better be thankful.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Deydacar3:
Hi guys, I decided to upgrade to lineageos 15.1 because I didn't get updates from 14.1 anymore. I think the ROM 15.1 is great, even though I'm having some minor problems with nougat. I use my s5 as a secondary phone, so in my work I use it as a music player all day long. I use the VLC for android applications together with AudioFX, because the native lineage player does not activate the audio effects when I listen to music stored in the microSD. With VLC it does activate the AudioFX effects, but in ROM 15.1 the sound is lower quality than in 14.1. I know there will be updates to correct this problem, but I would really love it if you could get the AudioFX effects to activate when listening to music hosted on the microsd. I also have some problems with some cameras. The native one works well, but I use alternating cameras that are not working well and in lineageos 14.1 they worked wonders.

I appreciate your interest and the great job you are doing in bringing the S5 to life.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Carlo Borbor:
I hope we can get AOSP Android Pie. There are Android Pie rom available on same SoC of our Galaxy S5 which is Mi 4. I try to port that aosp rom but no luck. I think because the kernel has different on that build. it's kernel v. 3.10 and our S5 is 3.4.

Mic recorder

I've already cleaned the areas where the microphones and loudspeakers go, but you can still hear the recordings at very low volume. In lineage 14.1 I made a method that was published by a user and if the volume level was raised but it sounded distorted. Anyway, I'll take the opportunity to do another cleaning. Hopefully they can arrange this so that the recordings can be heard in good quality. Personally, I'm very busy with the recordings.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] james_rokr:
Finally, after endless signal drop issues on my G900F (Arab version) I think I may have found the solution for the signal loss problem.

First of all, yes, you've got to flash the latest stock firmware, I used the french carrier Bouygues firmware (latest baseband)

G900FXXU1CRA2_G900FBOG1CRA1_G900FXXU1CQK3

BUT! You also have to enter stock recovery and wipe data & cache before first boot.

I also found that I didn't have any signal issues without Magisk Installed, but disabling Magisk Hide and Wiping cache & dalvik cache did the trick.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] KazuDante:
there is a magisk module that fixes that so you can also add that route to the rom. so cleaning it and adding the magisk module mic fix should provide better results, in my case after cleaning it out my mic volume accross all apps is loud n clear.

On a side note im sooooooo salty to the fact that the Galaxy Note 3 already has a Android 9 rom , that was quick AF BRUH!!!!

Its normal behaviour for those Oreo Building, there is a bug. To avoid it, the only way I have found is to turn battery mode on when the screen is off. You can automize that with a Tasker (app) script : if screen off, battery mode on.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ItsMeShouko:
I found that we can do it via adb and tasker
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] alexbelgium:
Here they are: the prf is the profile, tsk are the tasks. It's very simple, the only trick is the use of a shell commands (requires root) to check if battery saving mode is manually activated, to avoid deactivating it on screen on

If you don't want Tasker, exporting this profile as an app is very easy to do...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] CStadler:
Thank you!

I have root so it's no problem.

Can you send me the commands to check?

Will the tasker profiles automatically turn it back off at screen on? Or doesnt the battery mode affect performance? Since it doesn't seem to be like a normal battery saving mode.

How would I go about making an app from the profiles?

Thanks for your help
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] alexbelgium:
Well it is a bit off topic, but what you need to do is import the xml files that I have linked through the tasker interface (tutorial here). And don't forget to disable battery optimisation for tasker, to ensure that the script can execute even during doze (no impact on battery). When the screen turns off, it verifies if battery saving mode is on. If it is on, it modifies a variable to 1. If it is off, it turns it on. When the screen turns on, it verifies the variable. If it is 1, it does nothing. If the variable is 0, it turns the battery saving mode off. It is nearly instantaneous.

If you'd rather create them manually, I'll add screenshots from the scripts in copy to this post in a couple minutes.

If you'd rather have an app from tasker, I'll add it in copy to this post in a couple minutes (much less efficient in my opinion).
