Happy new year to dev!

What's this have to do with klte?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Besides not being relevant to this thread that's an alpha, not even a beta. :rolleyes:

***

Are you saying to the dev to move his butt? :unsure:

Maybe we will never get it at all if he decides to finally drop the S5 klte* after all those years.

Like all volunteer projects it will be ready when it's ready. If ever.

Whatabout the rest of us? :cry:

one should kindly ask, whether or not LOS 18.1 could be available for other versions...

What about 901F?

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] freecaster:
Hello there,

I have big problems with my installed official LineageOS 18.1 for G900F.

When I want to make a photo, the camera app is crashing and closing itself.

The same happens with browser: while downloading something Duckduckgo browser closes.

Even Gallery is sometimes crashing.

I did checked warranties for those apps; they are okay.

Can somebody help me, please?

I have the latest build installed on my klte: lineage-18.1-20220102-nightly-klte-signed.zip
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] HTC_S3:
i have a similar problem, i have 2GB of free space in internal storage, but sometimes the phone decide that the internal memory is full and writes "no free space".... after a reboot is geting all normal... I'm on the 14112021 build, maybe was corrected the problem on newer build....
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] HTC_S3:
Did you make a clean install? On my phone is working perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DoZe22:
Same problem for me :(

Of course, Cleaninstall with clearing Data, format internal storage and SD card, etc....

I launch Camera App, blackscreen, back to the main screen.

lineage-18.1-20220102-nightly-klte-signed.zip
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DoZe22:
Same problem here. Fully Clean install : internal format, new SD, etc...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DoZe22:
problem SOLVED : i need to reformat the SD in lineageOS himself.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DoZe22:
Another strange problem :

Have regularly "Missing SD Card" : the SD is a Sandisk ultra 128Gb class10 (A1) a new one of course.

The SD card is treated as "internal" not external.

it's a Known problem ?

I try to do the same thing (as internal) with Lineage OS 17.1 latest ROM on an another Phone, same problem :0x

Set the SD card , data transfer , no problem.

Restart the phone (because i need to put a Sim)

BAM : "Missing SD card"

Look if SD card is well inside the SD Port, no dust, etc.... No physical problem.

Try to restart the phone : a notification say "Carte SD Sandisk" is missing and still remain permanent now :(

I've had this a lot with adopted storage (sd-card formatted as internal storage).

In the end I got fed up with it and just use it as external sd-card. Since then that issue never occurred again.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DoZe22:
Thanks for this reply. Hope this bug can be solved in next release.

it's V-E-R-Y helpful with 16Gb version.

Some problem or bug in " split screen "
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vinfraxd:
SO HOW tO enable gestures?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
S5 On-screen Navigation bar & Gestures

The only options for the S5 by default on LineageOS 18.1 are found in Settings > System > Gestures and > Settings > Display > Advanced > Tap to sleep: Double-tap on the status bar or lockscreen to turn off the display.

Devices like the S5 do not have > Settings > Buttons > Navigation bar options nor on-screen navigation buttons nor > System > Advanced > Gestures > System navigation > Gesture navigation options because they have physical navigation capacitive buttons.

It can be enabled with the [MODULE] MagiskHide Props Config - SafetyNet, prop edits, and more and adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to the build.prop and reboot.

Or use adb root to add qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 to /system/build.prop as described here. Note that =1 disables it.

While I tested this on my S5 G900M klte as seen in the screenshots, I don't use that because of the loss of screen real-estate & the physical buttons are working fine.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vinfraxd:
Thank you a lot. I will do it soon
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vinfraxd:
ok bro so with adb i do not know why, but when i use adb root it doesn't work.

I also used buil prop from play store but when i modify the file (and save) in app i have error.

SO i use the magisk module but with termux (emul.) i can't see the effect of changes.

Termux>su>props>5>qemu.hw.mainkeys=0>y> reboot

I used this. But nothing changes...There is a magisk module to activate gesture?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Re: S5 On-screen Navigation bar & Gestures

With props first you add qemu.hw.mainkeys then you add the value 0 and reboot. (screenshots)

It works because I did it to update the screenshots I posted above.

If you need help with MagiskHide Props Config read the OP or ask in that thread.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vinfraxd:
Brother thank you very much. You saved me. However you are right. A lot of space is lost. I go back to the original Laos with stock build.prop anddddddddddddddddddddddddd: LOL! All is BUGGED! AHAHAHAHAHAH. So I lost the gesture (back), I lost the gesture settings, but the gesture for recent apps (swipe up from the center) doesn't disappear! Well that's the only thing I want so I left this (also because I don't know how to remove it now ahahahahaha)

PS. Sorry for my english. My bad
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] AloneDisaster:
You can disable it bro

su

cmd overlay disable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural

Type this in terminal if rooted or

adb shell

cmd overlay disable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural

This if not rooted via adb
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] vinfraxd:
Thank you bro. You know also how to rotate lock screen without root? I have note 9 on stock ROM

Thought I'd give it another go with TWRP 3.6.0_9 and lineage-18.1-20220109 but no difference. Clean install and opengapps pico, storage shows 12gb free but Google play says no space :(
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
"Clean Install" & No Space says Google Play?

What is the full name of the Open GApps file that you installed?

Are you are trying to download huge 100 MB apps?

If you sideloaded Open GApps it automatically creates a log named open_gapps_log.txt in the internal sdcard folder.

If you copied to the device the GApps...zip package & installed it from there manually using the recovery then the "open_gapps_log.txt" is created in the same location as the GApps...zip package.

Maybe you could attach that log to a post? Zip it if you have issues attaching it to a post.

What do you mean exactly by a clean install? Format Data is better than a simple wipe Data if you want a really clean install. (screenshot)

See Clean Install with TWRP.

From TWRP FAQ: What is a data/media device?:

Format Data adds an empty encryption footer after the end of the Data partition for some future encryption related data if enabled.

Format data will destroy the content of your internal storage so backup to external SD card or computer before doing it.

Try with MindTheGApps instead of Open GApps. See the bottom of this post about optimizing MindTheGapps which I installed on my S5 G900M.

Any word yet on F2FS and EXT4 external SD Card support yet?!? My Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900V) only has 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. Right now it corrupts the crap out of the EXFAT partition at random. Maybe could we get some additional file system support for BTRFS, XFS, ZFS and others? How about any journaling file system support for the SD Card?!?

Anyone having issues with the alarm clock not ringing on time, or not at all?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Massedil:
Very rarely it happens to me too.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] rellieberman:
It happens to me quite often. Where can i find error messages/logs that will help figure out what causes this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Massedil:
I don't know... May be with "adb logcat" ? I suspect it is linked with the phone not exiting doze mode properly to trigger the alarm.

I have tried the app "Hourly Reminder" (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.axet.hourlyreminder/) to test if the phone works fine with alarms. I have set an alarm every ten minutes and the app says "Your device does not fire alarms properly". Effectively some alarms are totally missed or delayed.

There is also the app "DontKillMyApp" (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.urbandroid.dontkillmyapp/) that do some tests, but I haven't tried.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] EuK_V:
I can confirm similar behavior. I haven't had issues with the alarm, but the timer didn't ring several times. In my case I think I resolve the issue adding the Clock app to the "Ignore list" in the task manager I use. Since then I haven't had missed timer rings (I use timer on a daily basis).

I tried "Hourly Reminder" app - had no errors - the alarm is working.

My device is SM900FD (klteduos).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] JohnieJ:
Hi everyone. Hopefully someone can help me with my issue. I have a G900P running Lineage 17.1 (kltedv) almost perfectly! The only issue I have found is loss of the volume up and down. I must qualify that I do NOT use this phone's LTE properties, so have no idea how well it functions with a SIM in it! I am using it strictly for a lightweight media player and a project for something to do. I'm retired! :cowboy:

My real issue is I have tried numerous times to try OS 18 with Android 11 just to see if it functions as well, but with volume controls functional. I tried with disabling (uninstall) Magisk, without disabling also. I am trying to do this without losing all the work I accomplished in A 10. So I haven't been wiping anything. I have tried this with adb sideload and with current version 3.6 TWRP. I haven't flashed GApps as it already exists from 10. It always boots, but it hangs in the Lineage logo running. I have left it for 10 minutes, and still no screen.

I guess my question is: Am I barking up the wrong tree trying to upgrade without killing the previous work? Or am I just not doing it right? I love 10, but the lack of volume control without going to settings/sound picks my interest in 11.

I have 10 running on 2 SM-T807T's and one SM-T800 and love it! They run perfectly.

Thanks in advance for any assistance getting this to A 11 for a test.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] JohnieJ:
Well, here's what happened. Used TWRP 3.6 which is what I have been using from the beginning and what I used to install 17.1 and the Gapps nano which works fine other than what I mentioned in my first post. Installing 18 and mindmygapps, no wipes, wouldn't finish boot. (By the way, I did uninstall magisk prior to this). Tried again wiping Dalvik/Cache. Same results. So decided to do a clean install. Wiped everything except internalSD. Flashed 18 & mindmygapps. Viola, booted into setup. Thought I had it made. Hit the start button and re-boot immediately. Came backup into the next step. I got through the entire setup to a home screen. I touched it and immediate reboot that never recovered. Finally rebooted into recovery and restored my 17. It booted, but showed a corrupt SDCard. It wiped out my entire sd card storage. I am sure I can replace most anything that was there, but it was a shock to me. And no, I didn't wipe External SD card. And, my TWRP backups where still there to restore from TWRP. It happened when I booted into 17:cry:

Any thoughts?

John

Billings, MT
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] EuK_V:
That's why before flashing ROMs I make:

a backup of all partitions in TWRP to an external SDcard or flash drive;

AND (!)

a backup of Internal storage - manually (copy files and folders);

then I remove the external sdcard or flash drive from the phone;

And only then I flash a new ROM.

Cause I have also experienced the wipe of the entire Internal storage several times during flashing ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] JohnieJ:
Howdy!

Well, it was a lesson :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: In all the years I have been doing this, I never had this happen before! Like I mentioned, no great loss as I have already recovered 98% of what was on there.

My main concern is why I was able to get all the way through setup before it crashed into a mode that wouldn't boot? Maybe the SD card? Should I install a blank card and try again? Any thoughts GREATLY appreciated.

sm-g900i kltedv

G'day mate,

My 2 cents worth.

Anytime I flash a rom, except for OTA, I boot into twrp and always FORMAT first, next advance clean all but SD card. Flash the rom from SD card and setup. Never had problems.

However I do not use GAPPS or Magisk. You may want to try rom only...

This may be an overkill however works well for me. Setup is a chore which I'm happy to do

If you continue to have problems you may want to re install stock Samsung firmware, latest for your variant, and then head back to custom rom.

Good luck

Cheers, Phil

Hello,

I see a strange behavior with a new SM-G900F that I try to configure like my main one.

With my main one I can connect to both 5GHz and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks.

With the new one :

- I can connect to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks, but I can't connect to 5GHz Wi-Fi networks.

- I well see both type of Wi-Fi network in the list, but I only can connect to 2.4GHz.

I can reproduce by creating a Wi-Fi access point with my my working SM-G900F : if I choose "5GHz (preferred)" the other phone can't connect, and if I choose "2.4GHz" the other phone connect fine.

Both phone have baseband "G900FXXS1CQA4".

On the new phone I tried with a LOS build from August 2021 and from January 2022 : same behavior (I can't connect to 5GHz networks).

Is there someone who know what happens ?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] JohnieJ:
Hi Phil.

Thanks for the input.

Very interesting, I must say. I've been flashing ROM's since I got my first smartphone, an HTC back in ~2008. Never had issues like this. Even installing 17.1 went pretty smooth. I actually bought this G900P off ebay last week as the 2 S5's I used for several years was the 900V Verizon version CID11 which cannot have the bootloader unlocked.

18 is kicking my butt!🥺 But I shall not give up. There is no logical reason for these issues...

TTYL...

Hello,

i have a big Problem with a bug. I used a Samsung Galaxy S5 G900F (klte) and i use a lot of LinegageOS 18.1 versions, and all of them said to me, that i have no free space on my phone. I cant install Apps, because its not possible for the Play Store.

Everytime i did a clean install, with full wipe of all partion and i install only LineageOS 18.1 and OpenGapps Pico.

This bug is on the Versions: 20220116, 20220109, 20211226

What version for the Galaxy S5 is without the bug? And how can i install older versions? All of the actually had the bug and i cant find older versions on the LineageOS homepage.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] BigPulco:
I have S5 G900F (KLTE) and I'm using 9 January 2022 version of limeageOs 18.1 with OpenGapps Pico and I have no problem. Are you sure your phones memory is really OK. During clean install maybe you like to format too.

Regards and good luck...
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Kirparon:
@BigPulco

It works without problems, before i start the new install.

A few people 2 weeks before, talked about the same bug.

What kind of Recovery do you use? TWRP or Lineage Recovery?

Edit:

I got it. I formated the phone again, flashing Lineage Recovery with TWRP. In Lineage Recovery i formated all partions and then reinstalled TWRP.

After that it start installing LineageOS 18.1 + Gapps and it works now.

I dont know why the Lineage Recovery is formating different. I think there is also a bug into the LineageOS 18.1 2022er Versions.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
TWRP & Lineage Recovery - Format Data vs. Wipe

Probably because you are confusing a simple wipe (factory reset) with Format Data in TWRP. See the attachments.

If you want to do a really clean install in TWRP *Format Data* + wipe System & caches before flashing LineageOS.

In both TWRP & Lineage recovery you cannot "formated all partions". You can only format the data partition & wipe the others. Words matter in this case.

***

From TWRP FAQ: What is a data/media device?:

Format Data adds an empty encryption footer after the end of the Data partition for some future encryption related data if enabled.

Format data will destroy the content of your internal storage so backup to external SD card or computer before doing it.

Note: in the Lineage recovery a factory reset will Format Data and destroy the content of the internal storage + will wipe the System partition & caches.

***

So my guess is that your S5 had an issue in the Data partition & the Format Data feature in the Lineage recovery fixed it.

***

TWRP & the Lineage Recovery are made by different people & have different features.

I prefer TWRP on the S5 mainly because of it's backup & File manager features.

On some other devices TWRP does not work properly so the Lineage Recovery is the only game in town in those cases.

***
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Kirparon:
I did what you showing me.

I formated every partiton, like you show on the second picture.

I select all of these partitons: Dalvik/ART Cache, System. Data, Internal Storage, Cache, microSD card and USB Storage.

Thats how i new install my phone every 6 months, so for me i think there is any bug into the LineageOS 2022er versions.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] BigPulco:
The latest "lineage-18.1-20220116-nightly-klte-signed.zip" is reverting back a correction (Revert "adbconnection: don't spin if adbd isn't running.") as indicating that for some phones causing as "Breaks boot for many devices".

May be that is what happening in your case if you like to try...

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] chillipig:
Thanks for the info. I didn't realise there was a later MindTheGapps and had previously tried MindTheGapps-11.0.0-arm-20210412_124103 which had the same problem, but MindTheGapps-11.0.0-arm-20210920_083829 seems to have fixed it and I was chuffed until I realised I now have a big battery drain issue (I have two S5 DUOS and this is the Arabic version) everything else works as before on 16.1 So as I also have a Russia S5 I did the same lineage-18.1-20220116 and Magix 23, this has no battery drain but will not give me 4G which I suspect is linked to the previous issue I had on 16.1 whereby one slot is prioritised for 4G unlike stock which is interchangable on the fly. I made a few posts about it. With 18.1 I note it's impossible to achieve 4G on my Russian DUOS and I would take a guess that they are different enough for the Russian model to be incompatible with what may have been compiled for the Arabic one.

S5 LineageOS 18.1 Update 2022-01-23 - Android Security Bump

Using the built-in Updater I OTA updated S5 G900M LineageOS 18.1 klte build 2022-01-16 + MindTheGapps + Magisk 23.0 + TWRP 3.6.0_9-0 to build 2022-01-23: everything went smoothly as usual & GApps + Magisk survived the update.

There are quite a few changes listed in https://download.lineageos.org/klte/changes/ and some of them do not concern the S5 klte* family but most importantly it includes the monthly Android security bump: Bump Security String to 2022-01-05.

Many of the listed changes are related to that bump & were committed by the S5's dev haggertk as you can see in the pages 1 & 2 of the LineageOS Gerrit code review here: https://review.lineageos.org/q/topic:R_asb_2022-01

After the automatic reboot as seen in the screenshot > Settings > About phone > press on Android version > Android security update: January 5, 2022.

The Vendor security patch level just below it remains @ August 1, 2017 because the vendor is Samsung & it is not publishing security patches for it's S5 proprietary hardware related blobs anymore since August 2017.

See Android Security Bulletin - January 2022 for details about the security fixes.

Thank you to the Lineage Team & Mr. haggertk for keeping our old S5 klte* up to date. :cool: 👍

***

BTW you can create a direct link to the Updater app & much more with the LineageOS Settings widget.

For example I like the App info shortcut because it opens directly > Settings > Apps & notifications > See all {number} apps.

I stack them on Home to create a folder.
