That's perfect! Thank you very much! (Assuming it works. :) I will check it out.)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] maikill:
thanks for the reply.

I did it as you say, installation clean completely twice and nothing, remains the same.

install last firmware by odin, install the rom as indicated in the initial post with all the format and wipes .. and even so it still fails me.

or I'm doing something wrong or my terminal does not like this rom haha
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] warism100:
here is all information about my terminal:

phone model :G900F

latest twrp

latest firmware

latest lineageos 15.1

and i didnt find any problem at the moment
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] yazar rafi:
Now a days people looking for latest android version. After that they consider stability. Unfortunately some developers also look forward to develop latest android version without completing there current project. Unstability is increasing in this order Marshmallow...nougat...oreo...pie. i learn this from my experience. Yeah this world is like this. Am so much worried...even lineage is failed to get stable rom then no need to tell about other roms stability. There is no stable custom rom thats the truth and thatswhy it called as custom rom. S5 is getting older so we cant expect much. People and developers are equally responsible for what happening in custom rom projects.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Yes you can with an app like app lock

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sp.protector.free

Open app

Swipe right for settings tab

Select system lock

Select wifi

Obviously setup a password & hide the app & make it an admin so that the app can't be removed or disabled - instructions within the app

You can also block out data or any other system settings apps etc
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] finotti:
That might be an even better solution. Thanks!

Well done with this ROM. It is already installed and everything went great.

I didn't installed GApps with it. There is a problem though. I cannot install any apk.

What should I do in order to install apk file through Files app?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
just tap triple dot in filer and show Internal Storage, then renavigate to the .apk.

WiFi Battery Drain

I switched from lineage os 14.1 to 15.1 om my Galaxy S5 SM-G900F. I used to have a battery live around 3 days. Since I updated, the battery only lasts about 20 hours or less. I tried different things and finally found, that if I turn WiFi(WLAN) off the battery live is just back up to 3 days.

Is there something wrong with my WiFi settings? What things can I check?

Used this os file: lineage-15.1-20181029-nightly-klte-signed.zip

Copy the apks to your external sd-card and tap on the apks. I have had the same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:
Hi all,

I'm pretty frustrated as I can't get any audio on my calls. THEY hear the phone ringing, but when they pick up, they can't hear me. I don't even hear the phone ringing when I call them, and when they pick up, all that happens is I see the seconds ticking away - no sound either.

SIP and Whatsapp calls work fine, so I doubt it's a hardware problem. This is a Galaxy S5 Dual Sim (KLTEDUOS) - I run the newest LineageOS (updates didn't solve the problem). I have MicroG as well - not sure if that could be the culprit. I've tried to "freeze" all related apps using Link2Sd but that didn't help. I also followed advice from a thread I found and set persist.audio.fluence.voicecall in build.prop to 'false' but that made no difference.

How can I troubleshoot this?

Thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Backup in TWRP. Clean install and test.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:
I understand this is the correct answer from a developer perspective, but from a user perspective, this is a worst case scenario. It would probably be easier on my resources to buy a new / second phone, but oddly, nobody ever recommends that. Which leads me to the conclusion that probably few people understand the implications of above advice in a real user environment.

In short: i would appreciate a different approach.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Check you have latest baseband etc. Try the microG support channels, they maintain lists of incompatibile apps etc. it might be a known problem. https://microg.org/
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kilicaslan17:
I believe its about the caller app. You can try another caller ap from store. Eventually a clean install would make it work. Backup processes are not difficult in Android. Use titanium backup for apps ands twrp backup for other things. Quick, effective and no changes except for OS. Otherwise finding the missing part requires a tough work :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] para756:
I am answering myself. After working through the whole thread I came to the conclusion to try an update of my baseband. G900FXXU1CRH1_G900FXXU1CQK3_Baseband_Firmware.tar.md5 seams to fix the WiFi drain as far as i can tell. I did some other things like using 2.4Ghz only which worked too.

This brings me to an other question. As far as my understanding goes the Baseband is directly related to the phone providers. So I might pick the one matching my provider. Should I rather use G900FXXU1CRA2_G900FXXU1CQK3_Baseband_Firmware.tar.md5 If I am located at Germany?

Maybe the baseband update should be mentioned in the starting post.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:
Is there a difference between dialer and caller apps? Because i have tried different dialers but ended up with the same problem.

The issue i have with the usual backup programs is that they never cover all data. Take Whatsapp as an example. Or maps.me. They write tons of stuff outside of their app folders which is simply gone with most "standard" backups. Cloning wood do the trick perhaps, not sure however which app to use for that
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kilicaslan17:
My bad, I meant the dialer app. Whatsapp has its own backup system.For the other apps, titanium backup has options like "only the app", "both for app and data". I'm using my all apps with same datas, all games with same progresses after many rom flashes. It's your call but i don't think its easy to fix that problem.

How is it possible to have 3 days battery time? Off-screen? I havent a day without charging this phone since I bought it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Rocky_B.:
I updated my Bootloader/Baseband to G900FXXU1CRH1/G900FXXU1CQK3 like you.

Baseband Date is Nov. 2017 and the newest for this S5 Version right now.

Works great in my Case. Germany, Provider: O2.

I had the same Issue like you. Updated to Resurrection Remix 6.2 ( based on lineageos 15.1 ).

Still on an old Baseband Version ( G900FXXU1CPB2 ; Feb2016 ) Battery lasts barely one Day.

After updating Baseband over 2 Days at same user behavior.

I would have never thought of that.

Thanks XDA Community ! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] para756:
Yes it's the idle consumption over night. Here is just an example chart for the drain on the left and for the expected behavior on the right. Both are made with LOS 15.1. I am still only sure that activated 5Ghz WLAN is the cause for me. Not 100% sure if the baseband update fixed it.

Sorry for the german screenshots. I hope its still understandable clear.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rm43115:
I have a little bit battery drain, too. Therefore I want to test to deactivate my 5Ghz WLAN.

How do you deactivate the 5Ghz WLAN - at the router or at the S5?

And if you deactivate the 5Ghz WLAN on the S5 - how do you do it?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Dimi72:
Hi guys, I'm not sure where to look for the answer to this question, or the correct words.

When a new message comes in: SMS, WhatsApp, whatever... , does the screen light up for a few seconds to show this new message, with this ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] para756:
On my router I can define a different SSID for 2.4GHz and for 5GHz. This way I can choose which one I want to connect to. This was my current setup anyway.

There used to be an option but i didn't find it in LOS 15.1. It seams, that it was removed from android. A quick search on Google gives you this: https://android.stackexchange.com/.../can-5ghz-wi-fi-be-disabled-in-nougat
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
There is ambient display in this rom - think you can also set it to show the ambient display if you wave your hand over the sensor

Personally I turn it off as I think it wastes battery

Instead I just use the colored led for notifications - eg pulse white for whatsapp, red for email etc
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Via the router would be easier

Most routers via their config page you can either set it to 2.4ghz only or split it so you can give the 2.4ghz & the 5ghz different ssids (names) so you can choose which to connect to
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] para756:
This is definitely possible. The Feature is found under:

Settings > Display > Advanced > Ambient display (below screensaver) > Ambient display - Activate screen when a notification arrives

It displays notifications on your inactive screen. Might be specially nice on the S5 with its AMOLED display. So in theory, it should waste to much battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fubo73:
I have a question: I used G900F as hotspot and it worked OK. But is there a way to see connected devices? And is there a way to setup authorized devices? This was available in stock TW ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Re: Hotspot Connected Devices Info

Hotspot 2.4 GHz also works fine on S5 G900M klte build 2018-11-06.

I don't know if within the OS it's possible to see the connected clients but in a Terminal emulator typing: ip neigh returns IP & Mac addresses of connected devices + other info. More details here.

The simple app Hotspot Manager > Clients shows the IP & Mac addresses + includes a hotspot toggle.

I attached a screenshot of Hotspot Manager & also Network Analyzer > LAN scan which shows the IP & Mac addresses + name & brand of the connected devices.

I have the Pro version but guess that the free version does it too.

"And is there a way to setup authorized devices?..." - Why? In Hotspot & tethering > Set up Wi-Fi hotspot > you can change the name of the hotspot & choose a simple password with at least 8 characters.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:
Somehow it doesn't look like this is an issue with microG. Starting in safe mode didn't fix things either. But it seems like people can hear me now, it's just me who can't hear them - that is, until I plug in the earphones. But it doesn't seem like an issue with the headphone jack either, because like I said, I don't have these problems when I make a phone call over Whatsapp or the like. That's where I'm stuck right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
I cannot understand why you don't just backup in Twrp and do a clean install. It'll take no more than an hour even if its the same and you have to restore.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:
Like I said, TWRP doesn't back up all relevant folders. I've lost important data to it before, and will not go there again. As an alternative, I would have to look into cloning apps. That will take time, and no matter how much (more) time I invest, there will always be a risk, because if you read the reviews, you will always find folks for whom a particular program didn't do the trick. Which is why experiments like these on live data are always a gamble, and therefore a bad idea. Last but not least, it is not like doing a clean install is the golden bullet, it is just one approach that may or may not help. Like I wrote, I already tried safe mode, which is, of course, not as good as a clean install, but does hint at the possibility that anything I have installed beyond the OS itself may not even be the issue here.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] zooster:
Maybe I've found the culprit. I think it was the mic mod to set its sensitivity higher. I picked it from a thread under snapdragon subforum. It worked on Los 14.1 but evidently with oreo it doesn't. I reinstalled Rom without that mod and I have no problem so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
That could be the culprit and I'm happy to see that your up and running again!

Anytime you upgrade/fresh install any Firmware that's a newer version of Android, "never assume" that anything that was used in a previous Android Version will work unless specifically specified by the developer (ask/post the question if needed within the appropriate developmental thread).

This was even apparent when XPosed for Nougat/Oreo was released. Too many members/users assumed that one or more of their favorite Modules would work and they didn't work nor did those developers state this either.

I wish you the best of luck! :)

I'm not sure where people usually leave device specific bug reports, but I wanted to say this is a very solid build.

HOWEVER

The MIC volumes seem to be really (unusably) low, and I can't find a mixer_paths.xml in /system/etc to fix it. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Vortell:

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
I've created a flashable zip to change the mic volume.

Values of mic vol changed from around 87 to 106

Flash in twrp (you will need to re-flash it each time you update the rom if you want to keep the changes)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] :
What causes the notification sounds, phone call sounds, or any sound for that matter to not be played after a phone call? Also, now when I call someone they dont hear me, I have to call them again or they have to call me

I use the latest rom, opengapps, magisk. but this happens without any root. so what the heck?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
No problem with any of that here - did you clean flash the rom or dirty flash from unofficial or Los 14

If you didn't clean flash then format system data cache & reflash rom zip

I also use mind the gapps instead of opengapps

http://downloads.codefi.re/jdcteam/javelinanddart/gapps
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] :
Did a full format with data also, and a clean flash. I also use modded mixer_paths to enhance the microphone. It is awfully quiet without it, what do you use for it?

Also do you use root of any kind?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Your mod could have caused the issue

I posted a flashable zip just before your post with mic increase values - obviously if you had done mods that are not correct you may need to reflash the rom first before trying mine

I use magisk v16.7
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] :
I'm gonna try your config with the mindthegapps, magisk 16.7 and your mic zip for a day to check for any issues. also stupid question but what notification sounds do you use in your settings, maybe that could be the issue as well
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] TheFixItMan:
Default - I haven't changed any notification sounds or ring tone

Also note if you check safetynet with magisk manager it will currently say invalid response - this is because of Google API changes - safetynet still passes it just can't be checked by the spp

This has been fixed in the source code & unofficial builds & will be included in the next magisk update

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Sithhy™:
Well then... I've looked at the dates of them & I felt something wasn't correct. Naming the official builds "nightly" is misleading
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Ibuprophen:
I understand what your stating...

At the very beginning, the Lineage Team was originally going to stick with their build labeling from their predecessor (CyanogenMod).

Snapshot = Stable

Nightly = May be Unstable

etc... etc...

Not long after their LineageOS launch, they had found that having so many labels may be more confusing than planned on top of the impressive stability already experienced on their LineageOS releases.

Since they had already began using the label "Nightly", they just continued to go with it and they decided to revisit the labeling again only if it was necessary.

This was a question of mine quite a while ago and that was the response I had received from one of their Team Members.

It's an abridged version of the story but, to the point... :)

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

Good Luck!

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi thanks for that I had flashed the A2 camera for S5 as I had tested this a few weeks back and it worked ok I might format the system partition later and re flash the os and mind the gapps as it seems it has lost its focus even after having reinstalled lineage which should have theoretically reinstalled snap camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] devilhopper:

After the last update I still have the problem of very low voice recordings of sound.

Try some mod but distort the sound a lot.

and someone knows if there is a way to put the notification counter so that it indicates in the icon the whatsapp calls email or received messages?

although it is not a problem for me, the bluetooch is disconnected from time to time alone.

otherwise the rom is great both in battery consumption and fluency, I recommend it for daily use and I congratulate the creators who keep it to this day.
