hello

i just wanted to let you know on which issue i was faced

in fact using adb reboot-bootloader my samsung with android 6.0.1 sm g900f restarted in download mode.

my question is did i used a wrong command and what do i have to do in place of this instruction?

thank a lot in advance

regards

gilbert
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
That's not in the link I suggested to you S5 super clean install and neither in https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/klte/install so where did you get that from?

You can't boot to "bootloader" on the S5.

As you can read in both guides you need to be in Download mode to be able to install TWRP or the Lineage recovery.

If you follow the official wiki but use the TWRP recovery instead of the Lineage recovery:

The adb command adb reboot sideload does not work in TWRP for the S5 as if you sideload a file afterwards it will fail as I tested myself with this error message: " command is: 'sideload' and there is no value". You must manually select in TWRP > Advanced > ADB Sideload > swipe to begin sideload then you can sideload your file. You must do the same for each files if you sideload more than one.

@curiousrom

I tried to backup/restore with TWRP.

Starting from LOS 16.0-20201004-NIGHTLY

Device: G900F/klte

Baseband: G900FXXU1CPJ1

Bootloader: G900FXXS1CPLV

TWRP-3.5.0_9-0

I prepared for a clean flash

and made a /data/format

Installed lineageos-18.1-20210209-UNOFFICIAL-klte.zip

expected systemstart

no further installations:no gapps,no magisk

only extended in the developer options the restart menue

Backup nr 1: boot,system,data

reboot okay

moved some symbols from drawer to startscreen

reboot to revovery

Backup nr 2:

reboot okay

reboot to recovery

restore Backup nr 1

ended in Download mode ??

I flashed back the stockrom and TWRP

Same procedure as above.No problems with backup/restore

I repeated the steps above with TWRP-3.3.1-0

restore ended with the running circles of LOS ??

Are there any explanations ??

Strange: I did the same steps with an S4/ks01ltexx without any problems

I got LTE on the G900V Verizon model. So I tried the most recent build on unoffical Lineage 18.1. This rom and updated did correct the camera app storage issue and photos videos do go to the external SD. In another verison on Android 11 this has not been done yet. I will post the bugs in a seperate post here.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Droid9684:
Tried the most recent build of 18.1 and there are a few bugs

Fairly persistant bugs:

When using camera it freezes and phone reboots

When using titanium backup phone reboots

Screen locks up and have to unlock it constantly

Some lag generally speaking at times slow as molasses

And system UI, system apps and apps in general force quit

Recent and annoying

Bluetooth static and music wont play get LOUD buzzing when trying to play music

Is there a way we can change system font? I did not see any build tweaks in 18.1.

Thank you for fixing camera app issue can now store photos to external sd card.

Reverting back to 7.1 Nougat until everything is worked out as its is 99% stable for me.

G900V

TWRP 3.3.1

Stock Kernel

Magisk 21.0 (because I needed root)

Clean install wiped everything

After about 3 months of use, I think @haggertk 's ROM is more stable and usable than stock ROM's. Perhaps the most stable ROM I've ever used on my S5's. I don't even think there was a single panic reboot. Phone lasts uncharged for days. Amazing. It would be nice if Samsung made newer Galaxy's cost $200 with the same level of usability (including unlocked bootloaders for US models, headphone jacks, buttons). I'll just keep buying S5's :)

Lineage 18.1 ROM seems to work well so far with one exception which was true of lineage 17.1 on this same type of phone: SIP calls over LTE with the native dialer drop immediately after they connect. I had the exact same problem with all Lineage ROMs for the Galaxy S3, so I had to switch to using the Zoiper softphone app.

The native dialer was always more reliable receiving calls though, so I prefer to get that working if possible. Zoiper SIP calls over LTE work fine on this phone (as they did on the S3), so it's definitely a problem with the native dialer on Samsung hardware.

@haggertk : I only recently discovered that recent US Snapdragons could be unlocked (DID method). Is there some way to take your great work (LoS 18.1) and apply it to the S10, S10e? There are some custom ROM's floating around for those Snapdragons, but I think they cover older OS's. The S10/10e is probably closest to the S5 and a more long-term solution I think... Just sick of thrashing on 2GB RAM and lack of 64-bit on the S5. Everything else is good.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
What?!?

Well according to gsmarena there are tons of hardware differences ;) : Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. Samsung Galaxy S10

Different hardware = different ROMs, blobs, drivers, etc...

***

The devs are currently testing the LineageOS automated builder with some experimental builds & there are some kinks to iron out: https://buildkite.com/lineageos/android/builds?branch=lineage-18.1

They will release it when it's ready.

There is no way to predict how long it will take to fix some bugs & new unexpected ones can appear after the previous ones are fixed.

This applies to all volunteer based projects like LineageOS: don't ask for an ETA! ;)

***
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Garry58:
The phones are obviously very different hardware-wise, but S10e is very close to S5 by physical size. I think that's what they meant.

S5: 142 x 72.5 x 8.1 mm (5.59 x 2.85 x 0.32 in)

S10e: 142.2 x 69.9 x 7.9 mm (5.60 x 2.75 x 0.31 in)

Basically same size, but bigger screen (5.1' vs 5.8'). So it's kinda "modern S5" in that regard. Which is why I want S10e as well. I'm not a fan of big phones either.

p.s. S10, S10e, S10+ are still officially supported, I wouldn't flash them tbh (not yet).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ttesty:
Ok. What's the ETA? :)

I said the S10/10e is probably closest to the S5, given all of the available options for the DID method (which are S10 and up). I said nothing about RAW hardware differences between S5 and S10. That's abundantly obvious. Relatively speaking, the S10e is more like the S5 when the S5 is compared to the S20, S21. There are already ROMS.

What's the ETA ? :) Think it will be 8-9 months for Lineage OS 19 on US Snapdragon 10e.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ttesty:
Trying to look for LoS 18.1 ROM on US Snapdragon S10e. What's the ETA? :) There's LoS 17, but who cares when there's LoS 18.1 on many devices. The DID method arrived a few months ago for everyone to purchase, so ROM's might take time to fix/recompile as they were usually for Exynos.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] x2k13:
I didn't ask for an ETA, just if someone knows more than me. Just being curious about how the progress is going, which you answered. Thanks for that!

The reason is, I thought about switching from 17.1 official to 18.1 unofficial.

But it's always a PITA starting from scratch, cause I use the S5 as my daily driver, believe it or not. No need for that when 18.1 official is around the corner already. So, better wait for 18.1 to go official.

Apart from that: "It's done when it's done" (Debian) 🤗
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Exact same for me.

I asked in this thread if some former 17.1 users see any benefits in 18.1 but did not get any reply.

I'll switch when 18.1 goes official because then 17.1 will not be supported anymore so it will stop receiving security bumps.

BTW no need to start from scratch when upgrading from official to official.

A dirty flash + GApps package upgrade (if you use that) should work without issues.

AFAIK that's a LineageOS requirement.

It's really amazing to see these early builds, but Android hasn't had any dramatic changes for at least last couple of years (for the end-user, at least). I'm fine with Android 10 (or even 9) for now, there's no reason to upgrade to 11 asap. But again, it's really amazing to see people working on it. You're giving old phones a second life, old flagships can definitely handle all that stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] x2k13:
Agreed. Even my old S4 is quite zippy and smooth on 17.1.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ttesty:
There's still the RAM thrashing issue even on an S5 if you run like 5 modern apps plus regular apps together. Had to disable a lot of auto starting components and setup crons to kill non-essential tasks. That's why I'd like this ROM for an unlocked S10 Snapdragon - about 6-8GB RAM v.s. 2GB. Think I'll be waiting about 6 more months to see more of those ROM's appear.

Future path with Samsung phone and asop based custom ROM? Forget it. Soon VoLTE will be the only telephony service available. No solution for Samsung in sight.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ttesty:
Nah, with AT&T, they're still running 4G / GSM for phones (voice & data). Here's the only change I see: "AT&T is ending its support for devices without Voice over LTE (VoLTE). HD Voice in the coming months and T-Mobile has already done so. That means smartphones that rely on 3G networks for calls and don’t support high-quality voice calls over 4G LTE will cease to work on these networks." So we could still use 4G into the future, no? Verizon's network is the one being screwed, I think... There's a solution being worked on for ROM's that will use QCOM instead of Samsung lib for RIL VoLTE needs. And even if (theoretically) there was no ROM support possible to support VoLTE, there's still a rooted stock ROM option to support VoLTE while keeping the bootloader unlocked via DID. I think there will be a future path, partly depending on telco used.

"4G-only calling went live in January for T-Mobile and will do so in February 2022 for AT&T. AT&T is giving its customers much more of a heads up. The carrier plans to drop non-HD-Voice devices from February 2022".. already using 4G-only calling on AT&T.

Good future path for S5 and its cousin: S10e.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ttesty:
[The problem apparently comes down not to whether the phone itself has the technology to support HD Voice but whether AT&T has "whitelisted" it. Android Police wrote that "AT&T only whitelists a small number of handsets it directly sells to customers for 4G voice calling, and it looks like even identical non-carrier phones don't necessarily work with the carrier's HD Voice service, like the aforementioned Galaxy S10E. Depending on how many handsets are incompatible, this email might have gone out to a significant amount of subscribers."]
