Hi friend the link that I'm going to give you will work with latest baseband and bootloader assuming you're a 15 CID and not an 11. Let us know how you do and good luck!

PS: assuming you are cid15 and have an unlockable bootloader, the one hiccup that I know of with these directions is the busybox app provided is out of date. So if you get stuck use updated busybox from play store. Sorry to everyone else for clogging up the thread.

So from what I understand if I don't have a external SD card I start at step 6?

Also after completing this it will be safe to install lineage os from twrp?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nickvanexel:
This doesn't work, towelroot says this phone isn't supported.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] swiftbones74:
Please keep topics in there respective threads. That being said, if your device is a cid 15 and you follow the steps precisely, they will work. This is the link to that thread again.

Ok thanks I figured out what I did wrong. its all good now. Is it safe to install Lineageos and Gapps now from TWRP?

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 01:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 AM ----------

alright I did everything from that link and its all setup, I followed the instructions to install LineageOS, formatted, wiped system and cache, push the .zip for LOS and GAPPS to /sd/, but now when I attempt to flash LIneageOS it fails with error 7.

any help?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Vortell:
Search threads next time, most likely it's out of date twrp. Download it from twrp site as I'm going and install as image to recovery in old twrp. 3.2.3 it's latest.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] swiftbones74:
Agreed its outdated twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nickvanexel:
Yeah thanks that was it. I was going to install the latest TWRP anyways but forgot and didn't even think of that being the issue. The only issue I could find searching myself was suggesting to edit the update script in the lineage os zip. But updated to newest TWRP and all is working good.

So much better than stock s5 ROM, I just downgraded back to this s5 from an essential and one of my first issues was no display size setting baked into the os, the default screen size huge, icons looked like something out of a leapfrog, and most stuff not fitting on one page. I found a workaround for manually changing the dpi with ADB witch worked, but caused conflicts in dialer and camera apps and required using a 3rd party launcher to configure grid size and whatnot.

Has anyone found a way yet to disable that annoying notification whenever signal is lost?

I've tried to reduce notification priority of the telephony system apps without any luck. Switching to auto select network isn't an option due to living close to the boarder and having expensive roaming fees.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fubo73:
Hi there. Finally I moved from TW SkiesROM to LOS 15.1! I did a full clean installation (wiped also internal SD) and installed SmartPack kernel, magisk and xposed. Everything was ok. Battery is terrible, but I kept phone busy to restore everything and the battery itself is old and not performing that good also with TW, so I just ordered a new one. Meanwhile I optimized here and here, waiting for normal use.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fubo73:
And here are my first questions:

I was used to Elixir 2 and its companions (system, admin, widgets) to deal with some phone stats (immediate access to top and battery panel), buttons in widget for fast tasks and profiles. Regarding profiles, most can be done directly in LOS. Do you know an alternative to Elixir 2 for other features (Elixir 2 seems not Oreo friendly)?

I created a tasker profile with actions regarding localization services: when Maps and similar are launched, GPS is enabled with "enhanced location services". When the app is closed, tasker switches location off. I have two issue:

Everytime the profile is run, the message to accept "Enhanced location service" is showed. Is there a way to set it enabled once and for all?

(tasker question) The location off task is executed also if I am still in Maps, do someone knows why?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Gitanitos:
Hi [MENTION=660982]fubo73[/MENTION], for me, battery life with the new battery is really better than before.

I don't know why the problem has arrived only when I have passed to LOS15...but ok... battery was broken yet

Since the last updates, slide or swipe down anywhere to see notifications stop working for me, but the slide or swipe up to see the apps still works.. Any solution ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] justjr:
Somehow, lineage is a lot less power efficient then stock, not surprisingly.

I need a new one too.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fubo73:
I expect it too, but I can attest that my Moto G 2014 LTE lasted 1wk (LOS 14.1, magisk, xposed, no custom kernel, no mobile data, only calls and wifi) and battery is at 50%. So it depends a lot on apps, usage and so on. So presumably there is a way to optimize.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] justjr:
Yeah, it seems that battery life in kltexxx specifically, it is worse then any other device I've had with Lineage, compared to stock.

Nevertheless, I'm very grateful we have it.

I'm on the latest nightly (I think it's 9/25/2018), updated to latest radios on 15.1. Phone is a G900V but has a T-Mobile sim in it. Any time the phone switches from wifi, or needs to hand off between cell towers, the phone loses data. Cycling airplane mode will fix it. I've tried everything I know how to. I read a fix somewhere else for 14.1 that they pushed something for the G900F into the G900V in order to fix the issue... Something about blobs. No such fix for this version. Any help would be appreciated! Baseband is updated to G900VVRU2DQL1.

LOS 14 official -> LOS 15 official

This is what I did:

1) Updated TWRP

2) Backup

3) Wipe system

4) Install LOS15 + gapps

5) Wipe cache&dalvik

6) reboot phone, took about 15 minutes so don't panic :P

I have not tested it much, but everything seems to be working, I have not updated modem yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] yoshkapundrick:
Am I imagining things, but has the battery issue greatly improved with the 10/2 update? I have been going back and forth between 14 and 15 but always reverted to 14 due to poor battery performance. I performed a clean install with 15 and now everything seems normal. Am I crazy? The only weird thing I did was use the app Advanced Battery Calibrator (yes I know these apps are questionable).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] hebermc:

What I would do if I had this question to ask is to look for member guidance within one of the Sound/Audio mod threads. Your more likely to be able to get some assistance from someone who's more familiar with this type of tweaking.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
It looks like it's having difficulty rendering some of the hardware (ie... Camera, etc...) but, I may be missing something else as well.

I'm not a personal fan of Upgrading/Migrating from one Android Version to another.

It's been successful for many individuals but, I feel that a fresh install is always the best way to go. This is just my personal opinion based upon my experiences with this route.

If I had upgraded or even fresh installed an Android version then, not long afterwards, run into difficulties that are more of a hassle to overcome, I just chalk it up to a form of a "Hiccup" somehow (that wasn't reflected when installed), and just start over.

This may be the long way around but, afterwards the new fresh install typically works out in the end.

I hope that I had explained this okay via text... :)

Good Luck!

Hi there was this an installation from scratch or an upgrade? If it was an upgrade how much internal storage did you have free?

I had a situation last week whereby my internal storage was under 500mb prior to running an update from the settings. Lucky I had a backup and restored it. I then cleared internal storage and upgraded and it worked successfully. Is this what you were experiencing?

I have bluetooth issues too. Bluetooth switching off from time to time, once I evan could not switch it on. I had to restart my S5

I use my S5 as a Spotify offline device connected with my cars radio (Pioneer mvh-s300bt)

While streaming via bluetooth there is no turning off the bt.

When I leave my car I leave the S5 in place and as soon my radio gets powered it connects to my S5.

Obviously without powering the radio ther is no connection

Sometimes S5's bt stays on for hours without beeing connected, sometimes it gets turned off after few minutes without the connection to my cars radio.

Can someone help me fix a Wi-Fi standby issue? If I leave my phone on idle for a long period of time connected to WiFi, such as overnight, when I pick my phone backup the Wi-Fi signal icon has an x on it and it makes me manually log back into my WiFi through a wierd sign in screen. It's a bad problem for me since I have really slow internet (1.5mbps) so if I need to download a large file overnight it almost always ends up failing due to this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
No nobody can. If you want to ask for help you need to at least provide your model number, baseband & bootloader versions. A logcat is pretty much essential too.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Is this your own private wifi?

Normally you only get such log in screens on public wifi or a shared wifi that requires you to login via a web page in order to access the internet

These types of wifi normally have a timeout period where it will automatically log you out after a period of time & requires re-authorisation hence the cross on the wifi signal

If it's your own private router & internet then it's most likely your settings that are incorrect or you have really weak signal but as said no one can really help you with that
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Nickvanexel:
Yeah private WiFi, that helps though, that is what it is doing exactly how you described. It didn't start doing this until upgrade to Oreo, my essential phone started doing this to and it was my first phone on Oreo, and now on this s5 after flashing to lineageos Oreo rom same thing. Maybe something to do with my router settings and Oreo? Just thought maybe it was something common and someone might have an easy answer here.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Check your router settings - if it's dual band you might want to test it on only 2.4ghz and I presume you are using wpa2 for encryption - if not you may want to use that or change your router to a newer model

It's not a rom issue as you have stated it effects other devices and no one else here has wifi issues which leads me to believe it's your wifi router settings or signal strength

Canadian S5, SM-G900W8, latest(?) baseband (g900w8vlu1dqb2).

Bluetooth keyboards/gamepads aren't working for me. Audio devices do, and the media controls on those audio devices do. My gamepad seems to pair correctly, but input goes into a black hole. Worked fine on 14.1. Seems to be BUGBASH-2069 on the bug tracker (can't post link, new user).

Hello, I have a galaxy S5 straight talk phone.

I used 14.x of lineage with no issues.

I have updated to 15.1 and everything works but I have the following problems.

Loses service (I can actually see my apns disappear)

"Roaming indicator off" is displayed (no way to turn off)

Bluetooth crashes constantly.

Rebooting fixes service drop and Bluetooth but only for a little while.

I tried to find a newer modem as stock is 4.x Android

I tried regular galaxy S5 modems and refuses to flash it always fails auth. (Would love to update finally as it's old.)

I have tried to find fixes but nothing so far. If anyone has a fix please let me know. I love the new version and would hate to go back.

Oh also I have done a fresh flash (deleted everything and flashed so no dirty)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:
Great build - thanks for the hard work.

There also seems to be a minor bug: SIM lock won't unlock properly when activated for one card only (doesn't matter which).

Symptoms: On startup, the SIM card unlock screen will only show up briefly (for 2-3 seconds) and then disappear again. Card will therefore remain locked. When you go to Security Settings -> Sim Lock, the SIM lock is displayed as "off". When you go to Network Settings -> SIM cards, then click on the respective SIM slot and hit OK, then the phone will suddenly "remember" the lock again, ask for a pin and unlock it.

With SIM lock activated for both cards, everything works fine.

App Drawer Slider

Is there any way to get the slider in the app drawer from Nougat? Previously, you could slide your thumb across the bottom of the app drawer to search alphabetically. This seems to have been removed in Oreo. There is now a slider along the right side, but it's too high to reach with my thumb when holding the phone with one hand. I can't find the setting to move it to the bottom. I really liked this feature. It seems dumb that they would have completely removed it.
