It sounds for me as you probably did a dirty change from one ROM to another (without wiping data and system). This may work in some constellations but in most cases it will not. Symptoms are battery drain, fc of apps or system ui, malfunctions and soft reboots.

So back up your valuable data (if not done already) and do a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vingia:
Below the screenshot of the battery life scenario. What do you think? I think it is good but i my opinion it could be better, because I have a battery drain when I use phone (everything) of about 1% ever 2 minutes. With stock rom this did not happen.

What do you think?

Maybe I'm too paranoid:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] fitittome:
Upto date bootloader, baseband and a clean install. Then you'll be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] mgp53:
Be sure t loop format data.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vingia:
I have already update bootloader G900FXXU1CRH1 and baseband G900FXXU1CQK3 after first clean LOS 16 installation.

After that, I only made the proposed updates.

Do you mean that I have to reinstall LOS 16?

Battery life & standby on my S5 has been hilariously bad since going up to Lineage 16.0.

In airplane mode, doing nothing, screen off, it will still drain from 100% to 0% after 24 hours. Battery stats show basically nothing, because nothing was running to drain the battery.

This is with a new battery, as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vingia:
Sorry to read this.

Unfortunately I don't know how to help you but I hope someone expert does it.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Battery Usage on Standby - LineageOS 16.0 on S5

"In airplane mode, doing nothing, screen off, it will still drain from 100% to 0% after 24 hours..." - Something is wrong with your setup as Doze is very efficient on LineageOS 16.0 on S5 klte + variants so maybe you have a rogue app that prevents deep sleep.

In the attached BetterBatteryStats screenshot you can see:

Screen Off to Current

Since 13 h 4 m 7 s

Level lost [%]: Bat.: -2%(86% to 84%) [0.2%/h]

So 24h x -.2%/h = -4.8%.

That's with Wifi, Data & Sync enabled on a Galaxy S5 G900M LineageOS 16.0 klte build + Open GApps Pico + LineageOS Addonsu.

See Most Recent BetterBatteryStats & Proper Dump Settings.

See also S5 LineageOS Super Clean Install & make sure your modem is up to date.

I applied the optimization tips described here including using LineageOS's Privacy Guard Advanced: S5 Remove Animations UI Speedup Test - Taming Google & Apps.

"...This is with a new battery, as well." - Brand? See Fake vs OEM S5 Samsung Battery.

You did not describe your setup which makes if very difficult to troubleshoot. :rolleyes:

***

Thanks :good::cool: for the BetterBatteryStats screenshot but maybe you could add a description in your post next time? ;)

I see that you started with the battery charged at 100%, used Charged to Current in BBS & got -0.6%/h.

It also shows: Screen On 2m 55s. You have to capture a Dumpfile via Share immediately after turning the phone on. And right after you can do some screenshots. In BBS > Settings I disabled Auto refresh so I can switch panels without refreshing the data each time which pushes the discharge rate higher.

I'm sure you would get a lower battery discharge rate if you would discharge the battery to 91% or less before running your test & use Screen Off to Current in BBS as described in the Most Recent BetterBatteryStats... post linked above & showed in the attachment

The battery gauge from 100% to 92% is not reliable on S5 LineageOS 16.0 because it limits the max battery voltage when charging. See S5 Battery Fake 100% for explanations.

Also as seen in the second attachment graph from this site, li-ion batteries discharge faster from 100% to ~90% and also below 20%.

I've got another issue with this ROM:

In LOS 14.1 there was an option to disable the flip cover functionality. This option I can't find anymore.

The result is, that the "flip cover" functionality sometimes comes up in error - and the only way to use the phone is to remove the battery and boot new. Not even the "really long lockscreen button press" helps to reboot.

Am I missing something, or is the ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
FlipFlap, Smart Cover or S View

See Disabling System Apps - FlipFlap, Smart Cover or S View.

"...Not even the "really long lockscreen button press" helps to reboot" - On the S5 press Volume down + Power buttons for 10-20 seconds.

This is a way to get out of a boot loop or frozen device for example without removing the battery.

Releasing the buttons when the boot logo appears reboots it in System.

Releasing the buttons when the screen goes dark should turn off the S5.

Been running for for a few weeks now. This is a verizon phone on tracfone network. Over all it is like a new phone. Pretty darn amazing...

-My main issue is that normally about once a day - I have to restore the EFS partition for the phone to connect to the cell service. (no bars unless I do this) A simple reboot doesn't fix the issue.

-Adding airplane mode to the power menu - It will put it into airplane mode but doesn't take it out.

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Riley.davies2716:
I have tried multiple pie roms for my sm-g900v and I think most were based on lineage and all have the same problem. The first boot works fine but after a reboot, the efs partition must get corrupted or something and the result is no service. The only way to fix it that I have found is to restore a backup of the efs partition in twrp but the thing is it will only work for that next boot. The one after, I will have to restore the efs partition again for it to work. Idk what is wrong but it seems that the efs partition is getting corrupted each boot so then it must apply the corrupted one on the next boot or something like that. I don't know much about this stuff but that's what my guess is. Otherwise, much thanks to the devs for their hard work on the rom that seems to run really well and smooth. :D

Nope. I did a clean install, but to make double sure, I followed the Super Clean install guide last night before bed and also updated my boot and modem to the recent version. I also did the few power saving tips he mentioned at the bottom of the page, but when I awoke this morning, I had lost 40% of my battery when I had power saver and aero turned on. I will try again later with no Google back up in case it's one of my apps, but Better Battery Stats doesn't say anything that I can see.

Hello, Many thanks for the stonkingly fast ROM.

I upgraded from Marshmallow to enable WiFi Calling. I've downloaded and installed everything today, onto a rooted klte device.

I'm on three.co.uk mobile network, which supposedly supports wifi calling (although I wonder now if it's with official branded ROM only?)

Any help much appreciated.

Play Services Problems

How did you install Play services? How did you update?

Did you flash initially the LineageOS firmware + Open GApps in one go without rebooting in between then reboot to System?

Normally there is nothing related to Play services in the LineageOS updates.

This said the Open GApps update survival script located in /system/addon.d/70-gapps.sh does run right after the LOS update in TWRP.

Did you install Magisk?

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] xyz_969:
Unfortunately, wifi calling works only with official Samsung firmware.

The only way using wifi for calls on LOS is via Google Voice, with your GV number. However, if I'm not mistaken, that is not possible to obtain if you have no US cell number - unless there is a way I'm not aware of.

You'll find no pre-rooted Samsung Official. But after flashing StockRom you may flash TWRP, so you have a way to alter the contents of all directories via built-in filemanager. Or you could flash SuperSU to get root access in normsl mode...

Can anyone answer this for me:

I want to move from crDroid to this, as the biggest problem I have with crDroid is that there is something wrong with Bluetooth - can't record both sides of a conversation - just me - when , oh say, in a car using a BT earpiece.

Does this suffer from the same problem?

I don't know what else to do. My G900F has very good battery life in standby, no battery drain. But, when I wake up it, using Frost for facebook battery drain about 1% every minute. Is it normal? BTW, I get about 1 day and 12 hours battery life with moderate use and about 3 hours SOT. I'm just worried about battery drain when in use.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] floschl:
thanks a lot for your descriptions. -.2%/h is a very good value. However, I cannot make to reach it. I am getting about -1.2%/h.

What I did: (G900F)

- modem/fw is up to date

- super clean install

- LOS16 build from 6th of May 2019 + Pico Gapps + Lineage AddonSU

What I tried to set by now

- I am running a minimal set of apps (which I need for my daily use) and I further trying to minimize them

- I turned the animations off

- Tried to remove background apps and auto-start apps

-> still getting about 1.2%/h battery drain at idle mode (aeroplane mode, Wifi&Data disabled, screen off)

I did not yet have a detailed look into the BBS stats.

Could you explain, which optimization tweaks you did apply exactly?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] guest4711:
3hrs SOT is a good value. But 1%/minute gives a max SOT of 100 minutes (1.5hrs) so I would have a look at Frost. Perhaps it is misbehaving. Sometimes it is a good idea to clean the cache of an app...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi RBraverman

With my personal experience, since lineage 15.1 my Bluetooth speakers have frequently disconnected and reconnected. Whilst in unable to answer your question about your call recorder specifically it does appear that some Bluetooth devices don't suffer from issues such as my car audio device but others do.

If you do go ahead and install this rom you may experience the same issues as you are now, bit of you do I'm hoping that you can add a logcat to https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/issues/275 and up vote this issue to get some more attention on it.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] RBraverman:
Thank you for the reply!

The problem is that with the wife ill, I need the phone an I need to be able to record conversations so I remember what was said (yeah I know what I just wrote ...). crDroid works OK, but for the recording part - just gets my side of the conversation - lost many important calls until I realized what was happening.

I don't what to flash the phone I use, makes me nervous - something happens and I'm without it - I've flashed MANY tab's and phones but not in this situation, so I kinda need to know that if I do, it'll help me out, not just leave me where I am now.

crDroid keeps closing out bluetooth as well, so of that I used to.

Don't know if any of this made sense ...

it is evident that if I use Frost I will see the Frost processes but, in general, battery drain very fast when I use phone (whatsapp, frost, or simply setting)

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Paul_Lunardi:
Hi there

Yes it does make sense.

Please backup your rom prior to installing a new rom or just every now and then run a backup via the twrp recovery. If you want to be extra cautious then copy this into a hard drive to restore it at a later date.

In relation to Bluetooth I was able to use my devices with no issue until lineage 15.1. one member has suggested it may have something to do with project treble as I believe this was introduced with Android 8 Oreo though that's beyond my knowledge.

I imagine if you were to install lineage that you wouldn't get the results that you are after with your Bluetooth device (as if I'm not mistaken most roms are based on lineage). Unless you install a rom based on Android 7 and below.

If you do end up converting to lineage please add a bug report and upvote issue #275 as per my previous post as ideally it would be awesome to get a resolution for these issues.

Have a great day.

LineageOS Call Recording Bluetooth Not Working - Open Gapps

The LineageOS 16.0 on S5 call recording feature in the stock Dialer works for me during normal calls & on speakerphone. It does not work when using a cheap Bluetooth headset paired w/ Phone calls & Media audio enabled as seen in the screenshots.

Actually it records a file but both side of the conversation are not recorded.

With my thumb on the mic hole next to the USB port to make sure the recording is through the headset's mic I can record voice notes in WhatsApp, use the Sound Test service on Skype Lite & the LineageOS Recorder successfully.

Tested on S5 G900M LineageOS 16.0 klte build 2019-05-02 (@ the present) + Open GApps Pico + LineageOS Addonsu.

Native LineageOS call recording is enabled or not based on the country code of the SIM & the laws in that country.

***

On LineageOS 16.0 for the S5 klte + variants if you want Open GApps you need Open GApps ARM 9.0. I prefer the smaller Pico package & just add the extra apps I need from Play Store. See Open GApps Package Comparison.

Check S5 LineageOS super clean install (with Format Data instead of just wipe).
