Go to the first page and look under the "Instructions" section. You will see a link for "builds". From there you can download the 3-15-2019 build. I'm having zero issues with it and battery life seems to be the same as TouchWiz. :) oh I'm using the Canadian version as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
Cool,

I will give it try one day,

Still getting used to figuring out the default OS.

There is deodexed Stock Rom for the neo i might look into. FM Radio is disabled i think. (maybe only over wifi, still not true FM.)

I hope developement continues for this device. (Get all bugs and glitches smoothed out.)

So installing Lineage OS will automatically give ROOT permissions?

How about the speed and improvement over Stock?

Overall,

Decent hardware specs.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GorfDroid:
No you have to go to the lineage page and download the "root add on" or install magisk as I did. I put this on my phone because the default os was really slowing down. Took up to 30 second to launch an app. This is noticeable faster and with 42% left I had the screen on for nearly 3 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
Where can i find Magisk and TWRP? Is there a one special for the sm-g903w?

Also, is this ROM still being bug fixed?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GorfDroid:
Google is your friend
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
No problem.

I'm surprised there is not much of a MOD community for the s5 neo.

Maybe not looking hard enough for root, custom roms, kernels and development. One can imagine how much goes into compiling a custom kernel in linux.

CF-Autoroot slowed down the sm-g903w a lot. Magisk is probably the better option.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GorfDroid:
True. The neo version of the S5 isn't really that popular. I stopped using custom kernels anyway because they overheat my phone. Stock kernel is plenty. I did put TWRP on it though and rooted from there. All the mods would be found in this forum.

Bluetooth Speakerphone also available for s5neoltexx?

Hey guys,

before I go through the process of flashing the rom again. Are there any news whether the speakerphone issue has also been resolved for the s5neoltexx variant?

If not can anyone tell me:

1. Whether the solution can also be applied to the s5neoltexx variant easily and anytime soon?

2. Whether I could also install the s5neolte (G903W) variant onto my s5neoltexx (G903F)?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Steve Ace:
hi I have a SM-G903F and Bluetooth works. Only waking up when the screens are dark east does not always work.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
Hey bro,

Thanks for the advice on how to use the programs to get the installation going.

Is this ROM still getting patched? How many remaining bugs are there still?

The only way to find out is logcats for Lineage OS. Otherwise, i hope there is more cool features to be cooked into future ROM's. (Even though the S5 Neo is not one of popular ones for dev work.)

Going to get off StockRom and test this out.

I remember cyanogenmod being awesome to use for speed. The downside is when updated, the installation broke something. Sounds familiar huh?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GorfDroid:
As mentioned earlier, sometimes the phones take a while to wake up with the home button. I think video recording has a bug but it records fine in open camera. I had the video camera crash when I used to stock one though. Also, sometimes the WiFi fails to reconnect but not often. Usually after a wake up. It should be mentioned that I use naptime to control doze mode.

no phone service with AT&T monthly prepaid -- do I need to flash a CSC file?

My phone is the GM903F, bought in Europe; running Marshmallow with Samsung firmware G903FXXU2BRH2, CSC G903FVIR2BRI1; works fine on AT&T. (I've used a number of firmwares for that phone since Lollipop, getting them from SamMobile and flashing them using heimdall on Linux.)

It's unlocked and rooted, with the latest TWRP, 3.2.3-0, which works fine.

Downloaded lineage-15.1-20190315-UNOFFICIAL-s5neolte.zip and Gapps mini, used TWRP to do a nandroid backup, factory wipe, then flash both zip files; rebooted.

Device boots fine and everything works, except the phone cannot see any service provider and using automatic search for one leads to an error message.

Entered by hand the APN details for AT&T (nextgenphone, etc., which I had noted before wiping the phone), no change.

Reflashed G903FXXU2BRH2 and CSC using heimdall, rebooted, phone immediately connects to AT&T.

Tried the whole thing again with a fresh download of the February 2019 Lineage 15.1 version instead of the March version, factory reset (wipe dalvik, cache, data), not flashed Gapps, rebooted; same result: everything works, but the phone cannot identify any service provider, even after entering APN details.

Do I need to flash a CSC after flashing Lineage? (I've used Cyanogenmod on several devices in the past 12 years while in Europe, with a Swisscom SIM, not flashing CSC, but entering APN by hand, with no problem).

---------- Post added at 04:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 AM ----------

It was sold mostly in Europe (where I got mine, thus a 903F) and Canada, so very few sold compared to the standard Galaxy S5.

We are very lucky that Stricted and a few other developers put time and effort into this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
what kind of root? idk ur provider, but try to flash without sim-card and root with magisk. just a though but its worth to try.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Neoony:
Weird that I also had the issue of slow wake up from doze, but it simply stopped hapening after some time. Not sure when. Thought maybe after some of the LOS update, but now I see others still have it.

Seems similar to the wifi disconnecting issue, that one also just dissapeared over time for me.

Weird.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
im using hibernation manager to manage force doze and waiting about 1 sec for WiFi
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmemoret:
Thanks for the note.

Root is magisk, works fine on Samsung stock and on LineageOS 15.1.

I had already tried flashing without the SIM card and inserting it later and reboot (I cannot insert it while the phone is running -- on the S5 neo, the battery is in the way of the SIM card), but that did not work.

Because Stricted (apparently) changed the naming of the file, from neoltexx to just neolte, I also tried one of the older packages with the ltexx name, just in case it was more than a renaming; no change either...

I ran LineageOS 14 for several months last year on that phone; there were a few things not working, but phone service was not one of them. Oh well, I'll just have to wait for the LineageOS 16 for it ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
I used to use a Samsung Galaxy Ace 2x as a starter phone. Not bad but lacked the speed and fluency. So many custom roms were made to fix the non working functions in Cyanogenmod. Full camera resolution from stock was not fixed, Bluetooth was ported later on....way later on. Little things were tweaked for faster boot times and so on.

Thanks to dedicated developers!#

I'm kinda glad i moved to the Neo S5 (Impulse buy kind of thing.) Its relatively quick and battery is decent.

Who knows, we could receive an update to Oreo for Stock Rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Never gonna happen.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
True considering it took awhile to get Nougat.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
yes im afraid. strange anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
The name change is because of the new kernel.

About your issue, it is indeed weird.

I have seen Magisk break RIL on different device. If you haven't already, do clean wipe and even use the "format data" option in TWRP.

Flash the ROM only.

Before ( build 1/28) is the old kernel

Anything after that is the new kernel.

You could also provide logs but i am not sure which kind of logs Stricted would need.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmemoret:
Thanks. I'll try re-formatting, then -- so far I've done the usual "factory reset" wipe only.

I rooted with Magisk *after* noting the problem, by the way, so Magisk was unlikely to be the cause, at least not the first time and so probably not the second time either.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Neoony:
Iam just using the usual SuperSU 2.82 without any problems

Just flashing that after every update.

Also no problem with V4A

But I got the 2.6.0.5 version.

EDIT: 2.7.0.0 seems to work ok as well.

Only my settings arent there, so I gotta set again.

[MENTION=8184192]Stricted[/MENTION] thanks for your hard work on supporting the sm-g903x kernel writing, porting of and continued support of your unofficial LOS15.1 ROM. I greatly appreciate it and would like to bring RIL bug reports to the furthest back part of your focus and instead present a proposal as follows below. I am not active as a user and poster on XDA/ affiliates due to my being self sufficient I solving my bricks/problems/perceived world enders without the need to enquire further than the information already available. I have however been involved with android custom roms and device rooting and even found ways to install su and achieve root on early Android without using CF flashes or other 1click solutions since rooting was thought of initially. I marvelled at my success in installing one of the first ever CM OS builds we'd even heard of on my Cupcake equipped Galaxy Portal GT-i5700, which I continued usage of for a lot of initial learning/breaking/testing etc.

Adieu, much respect and on with it!

Lately, without post secondary or valuable coding knowledge and from a technical standing, I am quite adept at the processes involved in installing, troubleshooting and modifying custom ROMs to make them bootable on devices with minimal HW changes (ie sm-g903f rom on sm-g903w, lg-g5 h830 on h831/850 etc etc where the updater scripts aren't inclusive of one or the others titles etc). I have also managed to repartition my sm-g903w to accomodate a partition layout that includes a /vendor partition and achieved a successful boot of LOS16.0 GSI arm32 ROM that had minimal functioning of its hardware, but was bootable nonetheless. I've become quite knowledgeable of the various partitions' locations/functions through the use of rooted ADB Shell in custom recovery or by modifying factory recovery to allow some root capabilities ie push/pull/chmod/exec certain sfw to impermissible locations so that changes to partition layout, mount points and filesystems can be resized, re/moved or created and then tested out. I got interested when project treble was born and my device didn't support it natively, and due to the desire to play with it, have garnered a thorough (but dangerous) knowledge of Android partition conventions, flashing methods, force flashing workarounds, and jtag flashing of bricked devices. I want to join in the testing, reporting and evaluations of [MENTION=8184192]Stricted[/MENTION] in development LOS 16.0 builds.

TLDR: [MENTION=8184192]Stricted[/MENTION] I consider myself adept at custom Rom practicality and conventions, ad such I really believe I could prove helpful I the testing/evaluation of LOS15.1 upcoming and 'teased of' passively in-development LOS16.0 builds. Please inform me of the potentials I could assist at your earliest convenience or alternatively what evidence of my skill you need to see me demonstrate prior to engaging in the requested tasks!

Thanks

LOS 16.0 on S5 neo

Hi! is there a link for a working kernel that is used on this ROM? I will try building LOS 16.0 but I'm mostly going to take vendor/device/kernel from this thread. I will try making a git project that basically take most of the work done here and simply build LineageOS 16.0. I'll need testing (if anyone is willing to help me out to try it on a device), but if it is successful I will make a new thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
i ask you not to do it

i work on 16.0 and i feel that its not ready yet

and i dont need yet another buildbot who just takes my work and compiles it
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cycloptic:
Are there still some bugs in this rom? It would be good if video recording or what not is fix. Even stock is decent on the neo s5. Haven't made the switch yet as can tell.

Sound Problem

hello together I am very satisfied with the new Rom.

Everything works very well. Just problem whit Microfon

The problem is when I record something is the microphone signal much too quiet and also when I call some one they dont listen me.

I think it's great that someone cares about this phone. But please bring it to end. if you can please handle the problem with the microphone.

Sorry for my english and Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] TheSBTech:
Sorry...

Sorry I did not see that you were working on LOS 16.0 and anyways I'm a complete noob in rom building. I can't even sync the vendor/kernel repo with the build.

Sorry again and I'm looking forward to your work for this phone!

FM UKW Radio Driver

FM UKW Radio

Hello.

Is there a possibility to download FM radio driver, and to integrate in the Lineageos system. I think that the Lineageos 15.1 for the Galaxy S5 Neo is already on a good way. Except for a few small things like sound problems by recording and telephoning because it is relatively quiet. Everything else is great.

Thanks a lot again for all the effort

You are the Man Stricted.

Have you done something apart from updating to latest rev?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Neoony:
This issue kinda appears and disappears for me.

I also had it again after the latest update, but then it later disappeared.

Not sure if few reboots fixed it, or some tweaks from L speed app make it disappear later on.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Mihai14:
It seems to be an issue from kernel adiutor. Try disabling the option from the bottom of cpu menu right after reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Neoony:
I stopped using anything from kernel adiutor since we got the different kernel which doesnt extend clocks. (Since around new year) So I got nothing on boot in kernel adiutor.

But this issue does seem to reappear anyways on new updates, but then goes away in few days.

So, yeah. Weird.

But I personally dont mind, as it goes away.

Just the question of why it just disappears.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
the question is why it happens in the first place

i still have no idea on that
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Neoony:
Yep, but I think Iam pretty sure it started happening with the new non overclockable kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
the new kernel wasnt the only change, i pretty much rewrote everything we had (completely new device tree and kernel)
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] nyl:

Update: doesn't wake on call received either, when eventually it wakes you see you have a missed call. Is there a kernel without this bug?

Sound Problem

Many thanks for the update.

In itself, I am very satisfied with the Costum Rome for the Galaxy S5 Neo.

The problem with the sound is still not solved.

When telephoning man hardly understands anything and the sound recording is the same problem.

I tried manuel to install an FM radio then comes the error message that the radio driver is not installed ( Spirit FM .

Maybe man can do something there. Many Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Airwaves90:
I dont think that the ROM become the FM Radio functionality because all the Custom ROMS are based on the Canadian Version which doesnt support the FM-Function.

That is very annoying, because this function distinguishes the normal S5 (without hardware for FM-Radio) from the S5 Neo (including hardware for FM-Radio).
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
that we use blobs from the canadian version is not the problem (i could just use the blobs from the international variant)

its just that samsung uses a non standard fm implementation that is not supported by aosp

also there is no good support for broadcom fm in aosp

Battery life bad

Hey everyone

I installed latest build (06/15), everything seems to be working fine, but battery life is abysmal. Left it on from full charge completely idle, lost 70% in 21hrs. Even weirder: Automatically turned on battery saver in the night for 8hrs, didn't make any difference. SystemPanel shows repetetive power surges every 10-15min (but not exactly timed), but 92% of the power use has "Unaccounted" process. CPU usage is minimal, though.

Any ideas?

I am using Tasker, which does show up as main wakelock source, but that app is tried and tested and runs without any measurable impact on battery on all my other phones, most of them on LOS8.1, too. So I that can't be the sole reason, but will try again with Tasker disabled and post an update if that makes a difference.
