Try to first set it correct manually while connected. Once set corrected set it to automatic and network provided. Then it should stay correct.

Otherwise it is ineed like you say. It will use it's own (uncorrected) time when not connected, and use the network time when connected.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] lindenbrock:
Ive got a SM-N770F/DS and I always have medium power saving mode on. I have also always had an issue with Google Maps not wanting to detect location after I turn the screen off. I assumed it was a google issue until I turned optimized power saving mode on today and Maps suddenly started reading my location and giving directions while the screen was off. Is it possible to disable the "prevent background location access" part of medium power saving mode? Long pressing my power saving settings doesnt give any options to do this, im thinking my only option is to root. Would rooting fix this? If so, does anyone know of some roms on here that would allow me to do this? I dont care about much else from the rom, I like the phone as is and this is the only issue I have with it
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Do not toggled on any power management other than the power mode (optimized) and fast charging.

They screw up functionality and increase battery usage on my unrooted 10+ running on Pie.

In Developer options>standby apps all buckets should show as active otherwise power management is active. Android will manage apps well without any power management options turned on. Track down any remaining battery hogs on a per case basis and deal directly with them. Sometimes closing the window gets it done like with Brave. Others need to be dealt with by package disabler and/or Karma Firewall.

This may or may not help you.

Gmaps is crapware. Runs best on original factory load and is a parasitic drain wanting to constantly run in the backup from boot sucking up battery and bandwidth.

Unlike you my goal is to keep it from doing this🤣

Also review Gmaps notification and other settings. It's a mess; buried settings galore.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Questions & Answers] lindenbrock:
I feel like I have experienced the opposite. I felt like my battery was draining faster with optimized on today (2nd pic) compared to the past few days with medium power saving on (first pic). Obviously more testing needs to be done to see. Going off of the pics I lost about 50% each day, so optimized seems to be worse for battery life but the reduced screen on time makes up for it in this scenario

Is it possible to the have a Alltel Mogul and get sprint account with it if I flash it to sprint rom?
[Touch CDMA General] Chipp:
The issue you could have with that is that Sprint maintains a ESN database (meaning that they usually do not let you active phones with ESNs from other carriers on their network). Alltel does not do this, hence why you can bring phones from other carriers to their network.

Hmm, Newflasher just worked for me now and I'm not sure what could have changed between when I was having issues and when it worked. Other people have reported similar, transient issues with Newflasher where it works and then suddenly doesn't, and vice-versa.

I'll update this post if I'm able to isolate the issue from before.

Nevermind on my question, ogi96.

Were there any issues or workarounds that you had to do in order to make the instructions in that guide work?

I've tried to follow it myself, but I run into an issue where Newflasher won't recognize my Xperia 5 ii.

Specifically, I get an error saying that

[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] Andriodfox:
EDIT: Title edit as this is literally a unusable level problem.

EDIT: Entire body of text to simplify

Lineage OS 17 on S5neo / sm-g903f

Rom version: Lineage for MicroG

Root: Magisk (confirmed install)

Problem: Mic too quiet for use in all instances (calls,record ect)

Issue: Stock Samsung Values don't work on modern Andriod releases, Same issue expressed in lineage 16. (lots of posts online)

Solution: Modify values in system/vendor/etc/mixer_paths_0.xml

My problem:

I cant figure out how to patch the file. Iv googled or weeks, used various programs, and even tried modifying other patches as a last ditch attempt.

If anyone can help me with a patch script, I will work hard to make every reference to mic gain in mixer_paths_0.xml work as close to stock as possible and share the values & script back with the community and devs.

(I have high incentive as this is my only phone)

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] Andriodfox:
Bump.

If some one can tell me how to/make a simple install script to replace/patch the mixer_paths_0.xml please help me out.

Once I have the ability to patch the file I will spend extended time to find the perfect values and share them back with the community. (This is my only phone so I have the incentive lol)

I will also fix the speaker volume with playback.

This is also really quiet from stock (fine in calls though)

To use Lineage on an S5 Neo you need to cup the phone to your mouth like your telling it a secret lol. I cant take calls in public.

Mic levels on every part of the phone is way too low., not just calls. Worked perfectly when stock.

I think there was a big change in how android handles the mic (re-worked code ect), meaning that using the Samsung stock values no longer works on modern android releases. (I say this because I seen people arguing about it in posts, the stock values just do not work)
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] Andriodfox:
I finally found my way.

Go to Mixplorer, select settings>more settings>Allow Root

Now you can manually edit in the values one by one.

I guess you could also hot swap for a file pre-edited on PC.

But so far nothing has changed, even though the values are saving.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] Andriodfox:
Im literally at the point where Im going balls to the wall and pulling the values higher and higher.

Nothing works.

Lineage has been a huge waste of time an energy.

Its nothing but high intense hiss and bugger all voice.

Funny how some one can release something that completely destroys the main function... and then not do anything about it for 3 whole consecutive versions.

Tons of people reporting this online, zero solutions.

Same problem here.

Flashed LOS 17.1 on Samsung S5 Neo (SM-903F) along with gapps (full) + rooted the device with magisk (and finished magisk installation on OS) . Everything works smoothly except calls - no matter who I call, people on the other side complain on low call quality from my side (even though I can hear them perfectly), some say even that voice quality is low they ask me if I "ductaped" my phone. Sometimes during talks other people suddenly tell me they cannot hear me as if I was fading away. Also microphone sensitivity is too low during video recording and while using voice recorder - on all instances.

I installed micgain-higher mod (posted here: https://xdaforums.com/t/los14-15-16...c-gain-and-a-little-speaker-gain-too.3491483/ ) with TWRP, wiped dalvik/cache rebooted system. No change with mic so far.

Can someone please help with this issue? I've searched web for past two weeks and haven't found any solution at all regarding this particular model.

But mine is fine.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] palamosteliaro:
I am using daily the previous build for 3 days and its PERFECT bro thank you so much. Viper4android works, battery life slightly better than stock, no bugs or issues and the most important: It fixed my proximity sensor issues. It started "blinking" about a month ago, making calls and listening to voice messages very annoying (screen would be blinking randomly). After I flashed the stock 11 version and it wasnt fixed, I was sure it was a hardware issue with many reports of it being faulty on 5 ii and 1 ii on forums and reddit, but now I suspect its a combination of proximity/light sensor calibration. The automatic brightness on your rom works much better than stock and I suspect the proximity sensor uses the light sensor at the same time. I tried all root solutions on the market claiming to recalibrate the sensor but no luck. Now its working as intended with your rom!

Is it safe to dirty flash the updated version? Will I need to wipe data?

Thanks again for single handedly creating so many ROMs for the best phone (in hardware) in the market. I was really considering to sell my 5ii because of the issues and software bugs, but now I have hope again it will be great using Lineage/Pixel Experience.

Would really love to use this officially from the PE server without having to flash odm. How did you get the stock camera as well @ken442266 ? I thought there is only paclages to flash for photo pro and cinema pro? Could you maybe link a working version of the normals stock cam as well? Would really appreciate that? Also, is safetynet working?

It would also be great to have exfat support ;) since that is just a few kernel tweaks
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
All camera needs some hack to make it work. And I will post a stock camera next month when I update PE, Along with R photo pro && cinema pro .And about the exfat problem have to wait for official to release the kernel source.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Hey man thanks for your reply ;)

That is nice, so this will become official without SODP base? Would really love to see that happen.

Does safetynet work on this ROM to install Netflix and Google Pay and stuff like that? And how is the battery life @120hz compared to stock @120hz?

Sorry for asking that much but I am really interested in this ROM and appreciate your hard work on it ;)

And I am really looking forward to stock Dolby Atmos ;) thanks for implementing that as well ;)

One last one: is 21w fast charging supported and if H.S. is on board as well are you going to implement the Game Enhancer too and how is the camera performance with the stock apps compared to the stock ROM itself?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
It will always be UNOFFICIAL. I'm still a student and will have less time to update it when I go to school. And about safetynet . idk. Cause I don't use it. battery life is fine (60hz up to 10h screen on time, Which is same as stock based on my usage). Everything you expect is almost the same as stock.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
btw. only H.S in game enhancer can be using in the rom.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
All of that is really great to hear, thanks a lot. If you have not touched anything sfetynet related the nit will very likely not work since it has to be fixed manually. That should not be too hard and if you like and have got the time some day you can have a look into it ;)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
So there will be Game Enhancer? The refresh rate settings are not that important to since it will probably just stick with the system refresh rate then but how about the focus options like DND mode when gaming so that no calls or notifications can come through? Do you think you can that to work?

Is the Pixel experience recovery included? If not can you maybe include it with the next build and make the zip a flashable zip? I think that would make updated sooooo much easier

Does ok Google work when the screen is off?

I think I have asked all the questions now haha ;)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
NO Game Enhancer. It`s not working. And for now still have to using fastboot for flashing. And for google stuff. IDK. Google is working fine but in my country google assistant can't working.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Alright, thank you soo much for being that patient with me ;)

If you have not touched Google at all then it will probably not work just like safetynet.

One last question and then I promise I'll shut up ;) is DT2W on board und will you also port PE plus when it is released in March?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
dt2w not here. Will up to plus version once they release
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Nice thank you. Are you planning to add DT2W? I really appreciate that feature on stock and would really like to have it on PE as well ;)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
What did you mean with "for exfat you have to wait for the official kernel source"? Does that mean that since this ROM will never be official we will never get exfat support? That would be very bad and unfortunately a big argument not to use the ROM cause I use a lot of USB sticks that are exfat with my phone
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
No. I mean exfat problem have to wait for sony to release them kernel so we can get it fixed. But for now. Exfat will still be a problem until sony release a11 kernel for pdx206.

[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Right ok thank you. Will you include that in the changelog once it will be included in the next build?

to fastbootd

so.. stock Android 11 is work too?

[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:

make sure your phone is android 10 vendor.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Hasn't Sony already released the kernel so that you can fix the exfat problem? I mean the A11 firmwares are available for every region now. I will switch to this ROM straight away once there is exfat support cause stock A11 from Sony sucks really hard
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:

[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
And I found another really significant one. Rotation is really often not working and nothing not even a reboot fixes that. Can you have a look into that?

That might also be fixed by moving to A11 vendor in March just as the fingerprint authentication
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
I don't use eBay or banking apps. But fingerprint worki nice in PayPal. Check if its a magisk problem.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
Works fine here. I did open routation but all the time is work.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
Firmware out doesn't mean kernel source out. Based on sony open source. Still publishing A10 kernel for some devices.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
Btw. If you are eager to use exfat. Wait for the sodp + pe. It's said will come out very soon. Just within a week (maybe)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Fingerprint is not working at all for me as an authentication, not even in PayPal. If I turn on the setting to use it does not do anything when I touch the sensor... There is definitely a big somewhere. It works fpr unlocking the phone only. But if it works for you the I just hope that it will work once A11 vendor based PE comes out
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
But will your apps like Dolby Atmos, Stock Camera, Photo Pro and Cinema Pro work with it? Cause that is the one reason why I chose this particular PE build. Will you even release Dolby Atmos as a separate app like the others?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Found some more: OK Google can't even be activated... And the assistant in general is outdated and doesn't even use the new design. Would love to see that fixed ;)
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
@ken442266

Since SODP A11 PE does not boot on most of the devices and if it does is very unstable I will stick to your version hoping for exfat support in the near future ;)

And I really hope you keep updating this ROM for a loooong time ;) cause it is the probably the best ROM (incl. camera performance) that will ever exist for this device.

Can't wait to test A11 vendor version with PE plus in march (incl. face unlock etc) with all the new features you ported from stock :)

Btw there is a big bug with video recording which makes it unusable (tried 1080p, 1080p60 and 4k). It laggs es hell when you record something and play the video afterwards. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN PLAYING THE VIDEO WITH GOOGLE PHOTOS. I have already cleared the data of Google Photos but that did not fix it. Btw VLC video player is playing the recorded video just fine... And the rotation issue (rotation radomly not working) still persists as well... Could you please fix that? Or is this already fixed by switching to the new A11 vendor next month?
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] ken442266:
Same lag here when playback. Maybe its Google Photo problem. Play well in X-Plore. And rotation is fine here. So there won`t be any fix until another guy report the same bug.
[Sony Xperia 5 II ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] churchner420:
Okay man thanks very much for your reply. Looking forward to the march update with PE plus edition as well ;) I am certain that the rotation issue is fixed with A11 vendor anyway so no need to fix that!

I wish you a great start of the week :) and stay safe

Btw if you like you can also text me on Telegram (@churchner420). Would be way easier to report bugs and send pics and vids of it as well, cause I think I am the only main user of this ROM atm except you
