⏳Delay when entering SIM PIN after reboot​

I can confirm this behavior although I experience different delay times depending on how much time you let pass before entering the SIM PIN. In my eyes, the reason why this takes so long is simply because of the fresh startup and boot which keeps the phone busy at first. I would say this is NOT a bug or problem. It was exactly the same in both 16.0 as well as 17.1 which I have been running on my klte before.

Other thoughts​

✅ Apart from this delay (due to device hardware being busy) I have to say that the UI in 18.1 is very fluent and distinctly less laggy than in 17.1. Until now I did not experience issues like lagging status bar when pulling down etc. (in 17.1 a reboot always fixed this), which is very pleasant for daily use. (y)

❌ One thing I don't like - but I think this is reasoned with the general Android 11 changes - that I cannot swipe to app drawer view from "Recent apps" screen or launching the 5 base apps from the bottom like before. Instead there is a way too big screenshot button, which could be resized in my eyes. But again, I think that is nothing LOS can do about...🤷‍♂️

Another downside of this change is that I do not know any other way to trigger a screenshot from homescreen and do not want a screenshot from a specific app (that is opened).

Hi. I'm running LOS 18.1 official on an SM-G900T (T-Mobile), installed via TWRP and want to root the device. I've read mixed opinions about Magist. Can anyone suggest the preferred (best) method of rooting this device/OS?

Hey! There is currently no other way to root then magisk...

OK, magist it is. Any pitfalls I should avoid or tips I should follow (I've never used it before).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ludwig83:

Best chance to not break ota update is using twrp, not encrypting and flashing magisk apk renamed to zip.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Boatshow:
It was pure coincidence we posted about a similar topic.

Bluetooth stability seems really good in 18.1. It still flakes out from time to time but it always seems to reconnect in a few seconds. I also have not seen the bluetooth process permanently hang like it did in 16.x.

There is a BT-related beta called "Gabeldorsche" in the dev options. It might be worth enabling to see if it improves BT on the S5.

This feature doesn't work at all yet, it breaks BT.

I think the BT disconnects are associated with either CPU or GPU load. The disconnects happen most often when I'm scrubbing backwards while watching a video in Newpipe.

My device doesn’t charge with the default lineage OS kernel i resolved this issue in 17.1 by a custom kernel …But now in 18.1 no custom kernel is available at the moment….My device is Samsung Galaxy S5 (SC-04F) docomo edition….Rom Build is (lineage 18.1 2020/04/30 nightly kltekdi-). Any help would really be appreciated…Also please help out with a workaround for Heart Rate Sensor since it doesn’t work by default….Thanks

S5 SC-04F Docomo kltekdi Not Charging - Heart Rate Monitor

There are a bunch of changes for your device that should be included in kltekdi build 2021-05-07 if all goes well with the automated builder, maybe that will fix it: https://download.lineageos.org/kltekdi/changes/

Are you using a power adapter with an output of 5v, 2A? Did you try with an other USB cable?

If you turn off your S5 does it charge? If you use TWRP does it charge when in recovery & connected to the adapter or a computer?

I am quoting this from a S5 17.1 thread as haggertk or @Aljr13_ maybe will reply:

S5 Heart Rate Monitor & App Alternatives

There is a way here on XDA to enable the S5 heart rate sensor which I tried when I was running LineageOS 16.0 unofficial but after running 3 consecutive tests comparing the results with a stock Samsung 6.0.1 on S5 Mini G800H's heart sensor and those simple apps using the camera instead like Heart Rate Monitor by Meet Your Need Production and Heart Rate Monitor by REPS which gave exactly the same results I did not bother with it and the resource hungry S-Health after a clean install of LineageOS 16.0 official.

See this video which is exactly what happened on my S5 G900M: Galaxy S5 heart rate sensor vs ? pulse measuring app from the Play Store

I ran 3 tests on each S5 devices using S-Health + 3 tests on 7 heart beat apps each (21 tests total) and the apps & camera method is as reliable as Samsung's heart beat sensor on the S5.

S-Health is huge and wants a ton of permissions & that's why I dumped it as well as the required S-Health framework.

This said if your S5 is rooted with Magisk search for the module Heart Rate Sensor Enabler for SGS5. YMMV.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Boatshow:
I found a bizarre commit from 2018 that might be related to your charging issue. Have you tried updating the firmware?

I also looked at the docs regarding the voltage tables for undervolting.

Unfortunately it looks like the readout at /sys/module/clock_krait_8974/parameters/table_name is only for diagnostics. I was hoping for an easy hack like setting a different PVS table but that's not going to work.

I looked at some older kernels and it looks like undervolting's done by modifying the PVS tables in msm8974pro*.dtsi files.

Modifying the tables is pretty easy but I'm having some problems getting the kernel to compile (never tried this before). I'll share some kernels if I ever get it to work. I'm trying to use these values for my PVS 9 phone.

I'm finding that battery life with current klte build 18.1-20221227-NIGHTLY-klte (auto updated on 27 Dec 2022) on my SM-900T is terrible. The previous auto updated build (18.1-20221127-NIGHTLY-klte) was much more efficient with regard to power use. Hoping the next auto nightly build fixes this. --g

Hello,

I don't use a SIM card on my S5. If Airplane mode is left on when rebooting or from a cold boot, 5Ghz Wi-Fi networks will not be visible unless Airplane mode is toggled again. I've been using my phone for a while now and thought the hardware might fail anytime. A quick google search leads me to this Reddit post from two years ago. The OP found a workaround as described above. Galaxy S5 and Lineage OS 18.1 as well.

A quick search from here doesn't seem to show the bug reported. A quick dirty fix for this maybe is to automate the toggling of Airplane mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DrGEROH:

Hey Klte KDI users, charging should now be fixed from the next build onwards! It was related with a config in the kernel called extcon, which on previous builds used to break the headphone jack, but in LoS 18.1, that is no longer the case. We now have charging again!

Since the last update the alarm clock (com.android.deskclock) either rings several minutes too late or even not at all.

Anyone else?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Massedil:
I haven't done the last update, but this problem sometimes very rarely happens to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] luciole75w:
I also have this issue for quite some time (2022-10-23 nightly) and on my device the delayed/missed notifications are actually not limited to the alarm unfortunately, they also concern the agenda events (sometimes 15-30 min later) or worse the sms (have got a notification 3 hours later last week for example, whereas my phone was already in airplane mode for 1 hour). This one is regular and very annoying.

I was hoping that this issue had been spotted and fixed but from your message it looks like there is no good news in the latest build about that :/ Thanks for having spared me the time to install it.

QR Codes Scanning Issue

What happens if you use the stock Camera app to scan the QR codes?

Try with the S5 further away and using the telephoto to zoom in.

***
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] x2k13:
The QR reader of the stock camera app works, always did. But it seems that a lot of apps use a different method to activate the QR reader or use a different library. Unfortunately it's not so easy to find out what they use because of closed source code.

Furthermore, QR codes on e.g. scooters are like 2x2 cm in size and with the S5 being further away doesn't work at all because all you get is a blurry white and black something. And there's no zoom function.

[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Lederhose:
I have sent large files with Whatsapp and now the phone's internal memory is full. Whatsapp saves all sent and received data in a folder in user memory: /sdcard/Android/media/com.whatsapp/Whatsapp/Media/, but in there are only a few images etc. left. The system must have moved most files somewhere where I can't access them.

I have seen this Whatsapp folder content getting moved before when I filled the memory up with large files as browser downloads and everything got moved back as soon as I deleted the downloads.

Now the system settings app info shows that Whatsapp uses 4GB, but Whatsapp itself also can't access its files as the storage manager built into Whatsapp only shows a few MB. I want to delete only the large sent files from the Whatsapp folder; where do I find those now? I can access the whole file system with the TWRP file manager.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
That issue us off topic here. But uf i search large files or folders, i do it with DiskUsage app.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Lederhose:
I used X-plore for that but the files were nowhere to be found (in the user accessible file system). I have deleted some other files to get at least about 500 MB free and rebooted into recovery to search a bit manually in the root file system with the rudimentary TWRP file manager, but couldn't find them. Now when I checked again with X-plore the files were suddenly all back again in the usual Whatsapp folder, as mentioned in my first post.

I guess this is a bug in the memory management of the system, maybe somehow cured by rebooting. Maybe also connected to the bug where Playstore and other app installers fail to install, stating lack of free memory, despite lots of free space available, which is also "fixed" by rebooting the device, as discussed before in this thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
