Unofficial Boeffla Kernel 1.5 and Magick are working fine for me.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mrclaver:
Ladies and gentleman,

this will be my very first review on xda-developers at all because I think this time it's really worth it. I'm gonna tell you about my day usage so far and you decide wether to try it out or not. (Spoiler: I think you should!)

The same procedure as alway:

- did a factory reset (dalvik, cache, data, system)

- flashed crdoid from 19th of march 2018

- flashed open gapps 8.1 nano arm from 18th of march 2018

- rebooted

Then:

- installed latest magisk via twrp (3.2.x.x recommended)

- installed all my apps

- recalibrated my battery via root essentials

- started my day at 9AM

This is what I noticed so far what is working (plus noticable things compared with RR or LOS):

- nice google bootanimation, no lag, first boot was about 40 seconds

- no google fc while first startup

- wifi works

- bluetooth works

- GPS works (no lag, no waittime for gps fix)

- hotspot

- fingerprint

- settings search

- you recognized the rotating arrow while restarting the device becoming a black square? not on this rom mate

- advanced restart turned on automatically

- screen rotation worked almost everytime except once on youtube

Everything works smooth and fine.

Here the bugs or what I couldn't test:

- NFC (cannot test, I have no nfc tools)

- choosing style in settings (fc)

- unfortunately no video recording with built in camera (plus I could'nt manage to install google camera 4.2) but footej camera did it's job on every mode (720p, 1080p, 4k)

- battery doesn't live that long like on nougat roms (but that's a problem of every oreo rom I guess)

- mic volume in recording or whatsapp is a bit too low

Until now I'm using it as my daily driver and I recommend you to test it.

My device:

Samsung Galaxy S5, G900F, klte, bl=U1CRA2, baseband=U1CQK3, stock kernel, original battery

Thank you for this awesome rom!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] v00d007:
Better take Snap camera v8.27, the best AOSP one for S5 and N4 out here in the Android universe.

;)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] bytes2bits:
Can you please link to it? I see a few different ones on the Play store and also the version numbers seem newer. Is v8.27 specifically the best? Thanks.

Edit: Never mind. I found it.

Getting error message when I try to flash this rom on my android S5 from T-Mobile. Any Ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] itsclarence63:
If you mean this? I'm not on CrDdroid now but I think it's the following. Just long press on a empty space on your screen. From there you can change your main screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devill11:
That's exactly what is missing in this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] swiftbones74:
Try a different launcher. There are about 100's available in the play store, or any android market, for that mater.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
That was my next suggestion. Personally I always use Nova, but as you say, there are plenty available to choose from.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] griz.droidx:
To the person talking about the mixer path differences, my understanding is that the old modified mixer XML files will work on Oreo you just move then to the new path in Oreo instead of where it goes in Nougat. I forgot where but it's an easy find or search with a file explorer that uses root to access the root path you know /.

How to take screen shot in crdroid anyone can help

Thanks in advance[emoji14] [emoji14] [emoji14]

I'm not currently on crDroid, but you should be able to take a screenshot whatever ROM you are using by pressing and holding the power button & volume down button simultaneously.

Go to Root folder in your file browser > system > app > NfcNci and remove the APK.

I've downloaded the new update, crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180522-kltedv-v4.3.zip, twice and I keep getting an error - " com.android.phone has stopped ". It won't let me do anything. I tried to do a clean install wiping system, dalvik/art cache & data using TWRP 3.2.1, but no success when the crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180522-kltedv-v4.3.zip boots.

Any other KLTEDV users experiencing this?

I had to restore back to crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180507-kltedv-v4.2.zip since it's stable to me and everything works.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] pmduper:
SM-G900I - kltedv

Baseband - G900IDVU1CQK1

Hi mate,

A quick run down with what I did.

Advanced wipe - Formatted data - Flashed crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180522-kltedv-v4.3 and open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20180522.

Wiped cashe/Dalvik and rebooted.

Setup device. Sweet!!

I hope this helps you :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Theareach:
Battery charging is slower than on Official LOS 14.1. Why does this occur in any Android O ROM? On the lock screen, it shows me Charging slowly.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Bosket:
Even with 2000 mA,shows "charging slowly" .It's a bug.:silly:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
Flash a custom ROM that supports fast charge if you haven't already (but it will still say 'charging slowly') ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] liability:
Battery life seems a lot better on the latest release.

All works fine, except the proximity sensor bug is still there during phone calls. This makes it pretty much unusable on my G900i - holding the phone near your ear during a call results in random screen presses, which causes all sorts of problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Theareach:
Thanks for pointing that out. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] indigofilipino:
Ok, I tried advanced wipe this time

-Wiped Dalvik / ART cache

-Wiped System

-Wiped Data

-Wiped Cache

via TWRP 3.2.1

Three times, just in case.

-Installed crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180522-kltedv-v4.3

-Installed open_gapps-arm-8.1-pico-20180525

-Wiped Dalvik / ART cache

-Wiped Cache

Rebooted and still got the "com.android.phone has stopped" message that won't go away, which I can't do anything but turn off the phone and reboot back to recovery.

By the way, this is on a SM-G900P, Sprint Galaxy S5.

Any other SM-G900P experiencing the com.android.phone has stopped message on the new 5/22 update?

I think this 5/22 .zip is bugged for the SM-G900P?

Well, for now, I will restore back to crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180507-kltedv-v4.2 until another new zip update gets released by Brunowp8
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Brunowp8:
Does this still happen ?!

Everyone still have this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
May I ask if you are using the same Rom zip each time you try to flash? If you are, it may be worth downloading the ROM again and try to flash again. You may have a corrupted download.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vd69:
Yes its still happening
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
This problem does not seem to be an issue on 900F.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mgp53:
Try to Format Data as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] montecarlo5:
I have the same phone (sm-g900p) and issue. I've tried every and any thing possible (wipe everything, flashed just rom no gapps, redownload rom, flashed back to stock, installed TWRP and tried again) but whatever I do I still get the same error.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] indigofilipino:
Yes, I've downloaded the crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180522-kltedv-v4.3 zip 3 different times.

I forgot to add data to the list, but yes, I've formatted data as well.

Ok, thank you. It looks like the new crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180522-kltedv-v4.3 zip won't work on the SM-G900P sprint S5.

-EV.

I'll just wait for the next new update.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kuldesak69:
wait for kltedcm/kltekdi build

:D:D
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] godofsalt:
Why?

have been the Newer label for Galaxy S5, Sprint, which is KTLEVD, since it came out, but a year ago now.

Now I would wait for a Newer build to drop soon. See if NG how LineageOS had an update, few days ago. Being a Holiday for many, it might be in the few days we see an update.....
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] liability:
Have tried the last few kltedv releases on 2 different G900I and they all have the same proximity sensor bug. From other posts it appears only to be a problem on the G900I variant.

What is the difference between CRDroid's ROM here and Haggertk's LINEAGE Oreo custom ROM from this post? https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-lineageos-15-0-klte-t3680666 ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Bosket:
Lineage is "the mother" of crDroid.;)

Lineage (LOS) is stock custom ROM with less customization,and crDroid is custom ROM with powerful customization and tweaks.:D
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] MarvinMod:
ive been on los since cm12. ive been running haggertk 15.1 and seen a post on crd and decided to try it. wow. excellent job on the build, idk if I want to stay or go back..... the only thing I noticed was the kill back button was missing in dev options, other then that its like having the features from los 14.1 brought back to 15.1 with a bit more added customizations. I like the fact I can dirty flash crd over los and retain my apps, settings and data.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
I have a dumb question: where can I find out the "hardware version" of my S5 in crDroid? When I used to run OptimalROM, if I went to "About Phone", there's a line called "Hardware version", but I don't see that in crDroid.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] itsclarence63:

It always happens after i change something within the settings.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
Does crDroid come with Solid Explorer included or something? I just got a S5 with crDroid installed on it and I don't recall installing Solid Explorer, but it is there and I can't uninstall or upgrade it...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
No, doesn't come with Solid Explorer, very good file manager though. You should be able to uninstall it, that's very odd that you can't.

Do I just flash with TWRP like I did with Magisk?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
Yes. :svetius:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jco23:
disregard, wrong ROM thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] godofsalt:
I do believe the NFC already has a tile. With that you are supposed to be able to toggle it "On" or either "Off". Look for a small "Pencil" when you bring down your tiles. Which actually means Tile Edit.

Hope that helps

Hey there Awesome Rom Builder... Would this "Fix" work on other apps with same issue? Such as Google Duo? Or in just plain Video Recording?

Guess I am asking is this a General Fix, or just for "Whatsapp"?

Thank you in advance Sir.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Brunowp8:
It is a general correction
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
I'm seeing a strange behavior from a S5 I bought that runs crDroid 7.2.1. When I power-off the phone and plug it in to a charger, it just endlessly cycles the empty battery charging screen (even though the battery is partly or fully charged) with the text "Set Warranty Bit: kernel" in the upper-left corner. I contacted the eBay guy who sold it and he says it isn't normal and doesn't know why it is doing it. I've tried it with two brand-new OEM batteries and three chargers (a cradle connected to a powered USB hub, a USB cable connected directly to the computer, and one wall A/C that the seller supplied), and it always does it.

What's also kinda unexpected to me, perhaps it is a clue, is that when I disconnected the charger, the phone stopped cycling and booted without me pushing the power button. I compared that to the behavior of my old CID11 S5 running OptimalROM, and I found that when I powered-off and then plugged it in, it first showed the empty battery screen, then went blank, then up popped the green charging battery animation, and then when I unplugged it, it did not boot, it just went blank again. So it seems like this new S5 running crDroid is endlessly resetting instead of loading the green battery charging animation. I guess one question yet to be answered is whether it is actually charging while doing that, or if it prevents it charging.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] slimtim:
I'm having same issue with lineage... I'm guessing my bootloader or something is corrupt...just a thought.

Hi all. Have a question . Sometimes I wanna open music player, music don't wanna play and I must to doreboot or it's do phone....
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
Can anyone else weigh-in on this? Is there a way of diagnosing what is causing the problem? Even better, is there a way of fixing it?

I just confirmed that I can reboot to TWRP just fine, although what's interesting is when it starts up, the yellow text in the upper-left corner says, "Set Warranty Bit: recovery". When I boot the phone as normal it says "Set Warranty Bit: kernel", which is the same thing it says when it resets endlessly when it is powered off while plugged in.

I did some research, and apparently the offline charging is part of the OS kernel and is separate from the recovery. So I'm wondering if there's a way to update the kernel?

I have to decide soon if I'm returning/exchanging the phone or keeping it -- it would be great if this is an easy problem to fix, so I don't have to return it.

Wallpaper auto adapt theme

Guys any way to disable auto adapt theme to dark wallpapers? There is a setting in Settings>cdDroid Settings>User Interface>Style but choosing Light theme works except for the app drawer where theme is still dark and app context menu options cannot be viewed, because there is white font on white background.

Can this rom install on my GalaxyS5 G9008V ?

Hi, my GalaxyS5 is G9008V, may I install this Rom or which version should I flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] MarvinMod:
keep the phone, this is an easy fix. whats the model number of the device? ill send you a link with instructions on updating the device which should solve your problem. also, the set warranty bit message is normal on a bootloader unlocked device with a custom recovery and rom. that will never go away unless you flash a stock rom on the device. recovery means its booting into recovery which is usually twrp. kernel means its booting to the os. your going to need twrp 3.2.1, odin and crdroid android 8.1. again,let me know your model number and ill send you links to get it back up to date. youll also need a pc to install twrp update unless you know how to enable root and use the twrp app.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
There is an official Twrp app available on the play store which makes flashing Twrp all the more easier if you prefer, as it does the flashing process for you. No need for wires and Odin. Just another option.

A small request

Hi,

If it is possible, can we change the start up screen on crdroid 8.1 from google to the original eye or Ra which we had on the crdroid 7 ?

All good if its not possible.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
You should be able to take the bootanimation you are talking about from a build that uses it.

To replace the current animation:

Go to the root folder of your file Explorer (give it root permission)

Go to System > Media and place your preferred animation in there. Remember to remove the original animation and to name the new one bootanimation.zip if it already isn't.

Hi all. Have a question . Sometimes I wanna open music player, but music don't wanna play and I must to do reboot or it's phone do alone.... Thanks for answer
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
It was delivered to me already rooted and running crDroid 7.1.2. For some reason in his eBay listing he says it is crDroid 7.2.1, but I think that's a misprint, because the phone itself says it is running 7.1.2. He recommended against running 8.x yet because he said it wasn't stable yet and there aren't a lot of new features to merit upgrading from the stable 7.x.

"Device model" is "SM-G900V".

Android version is 7.1.2.

crDroid version is "crDroidAndroid-7.1.2-20180117-klte-v3.8.5".

The current "Kernel version" is "3.4.113-lineageos-g450ae2ehokiealumnus@hokiealumnus-ubunto #1".

I'm not sure why, but in the instruction from the guy on eBay that sold it to me, says not to download TWRP or SuperSU apps from the Play Store, since "this use custom TWRP, SuperSU which is already installed."
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] swiftbones74:
Well I get not wanting to use the play store for some reasons. The ones he listed are pure BS. I can tell you that I trust [MENTION=1462638]drhead[/MENTION]phuk over some eBay noob any day of the week. I also have the same phone you do and I use twrp app from the play store.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
Here's the eBay listing with the details:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/173159315602

In some places he says 7.2.1, other places 7.1.2, but like I said, the phone itself says it is 7.1.2.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
It's a typo, there was no 7.2.1. For the record, there is nothing wrong with 8.1 crDroid at all, it is very stable. Maybe it wasn't when he published the Ad, but I have been on the latest build since release without any problems whatsoever and for a Flashaholic that is light years :laugh:

If I were you I would do a full wipe, format data and start again with a nice clean device. There are a lot of great developers for the S5 one of which maintains the crDroid ROM

The seller says not to flash Super SU because on the 7.1.2 builds it was built in, but if you step up to 8.1 you will need to flash Super SU or Magisk to get root access.

I, personally, have never had any issues using the Twrp app. If you do not wish to download it from the play store, you can always grab the APK from APK mirror. Hope I have helped in some way.

Edit:

What version of Twrp do you have?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nerva:
It has TWRP 3.2.1.0.

It's been four years since I've installed a custom ROM... I forget... what constitutes a "full wipe"? And would the idea be to wipe everything and then install 8.1 from scratch?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Drhedphuk:
Yes it would. Make sure that anything that you don't want to lose its backed up or placed on your extsd card. Also place the ROM and Gapps and Super SU or Magisk on the ext SD too.

You can grab the Gapps from here (I suggest Pico)

https://opengapps.org/

Boot to Recovery.

Wipe > Factory reset.

Go to Advanced wipe.

Tick the check box for Dalvik/Art, system, data, cache (you can do then all together, I prefer to do them one at a time) and swipe to wipe .

Format data.

Back to the menu and select install.

At the top of the list touch 'up one level' scroll down to External SD > tap.

Find the ROM and flash. When it says successful, repeat with Gapps & your super SD or Magisk (preferred)

Reboot.

First boot can take up to 15 minutes sometimes.

Go through sign in process. Done.

Yep all true. .... But....

Once he sends you the info (model numbers and such) might want to also double check that he is on the latest firmware, for his devise. Important!
