That's the reason of the project, or simply to have an updated old device for emergency (since LP 5.0 is going to be deprecated soon).

Big up for the dev ;)

Despite this, I consider the Snapdragon 835/845 to be the best generation in terms of longevity. The only problem would be the battery (which can be changed), but they work for everything. The 801 one has the problem of still being 32bit and not being supported anymore from app's developer and Android itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] asdf2345:
I'd rather all this effort be put into making an ultimate 7.1.2 or 8.1.0 or whatever older version for more phones. I get the appeal of running Android 13 on a S5/SD801, I did it just to see it, but I'd trade that for an even better experience with a older, but still maintained ROM.

The 835 is a really good generation, it's so much faster and cooler compared to my 820 phone with a specifically optimized ROM for it. My phone has no fully stable 8.1.0 ROM so I'm currently running BlissROMs Q. I'm going to have to upgrade soon anyways though since I can't get VOLTE working reliably on it, even stock. (Looking at getting a used 865 phone soon) Even though I have an 835, I still like playing with these older phones, seeing what they can do, seeing what all I can run on them. A couple years ago I was able to main a SD800 based phone and it was still pretty nice, but cell service was a pain.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jeremywh7:
You can still get monthly A11 official LOS 18.1 builds. LOS 20 unofficial has been getting updated by khalvat every 2 months.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] asdf2345:
I'd prefer someone make/maintain the ultimate 7.1.2, 8.1.0, and 10.0.0 versions as a modified LinageOS base, and then have these bases be compiled for more phones where that version makes the most sense.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] brt4722:
When I used data the mobile network gets disabled. Can't call anymore. Only whatsapp works?

I changed it to lte and still disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] brt4722:
Changed apn protocol in lpv4/lpv6

Seems to work
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] CLAUDIO 969:
hello do you know when mr.Khalvat's new build of los20 comes out since it comes out every 2 months
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] jeremywh7:
"has been getting updated" != "comes out every"

I.e. khalvat will update if and when (or never) as he pleases

Some say you can do anything if you put your mind to it. :-) Or ask ChatGPT...?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] asdf2345:
And I can't find a good guide that works to compile an existing ROM for a phone I have, let alone a guide to make my own.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
I'll back up jeremywh7's comment.

Regardless of how often google releases updates to the AOSP, Khalvat releases a new build when he's satisfied it's warranted, he's satisfied a build is stable enough, or if he feels like it. There was a seven month gap between his first and second builds, so you're going to be heavily disappointed if you're expecting a regular 2 month cycle.

This is an enthusiast's unofficial build of LineageOS. If you want a nice predictable release schedule, drop back to LOS18.1 with an official build (while it lasts).
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] CLAUDIO 969:
OK WE WILL WAIT FOR MR KHALVAT WHEN HE IS READY AND WANT TO AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT JOB
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] CubeFun:
I want to buy this phone to use as a backup and custom rom it with this rom but can anyone tell me how long before the phone dies if its charged at 100%?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] #ZEUS#:
I own a Galaxy S5 LTE-A (SM-G906S) (South Korean code name - lentislte) running smoothly on LineageOS 16 (Android 9 Pie). khalvat,is there any chance this custom Android 13 ROM could work on my phone? I would like to know your recommendation on that. If you think it could work, please tell me which ROM to use from your sourceforge page. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
A phone doesn't die from charging to 100 %. The battery ages a bit faster than having it 50% charged and removed from phone. But even a aged battery can run your phone for several hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
I took your question a different way than kurtn!

I charge my phone once a day, though I could probably get away with charging every second day when I've only lightly used my phone.

For example, I put my phone on charge overnight. I took my phone off charge this morning about 8am to go to work. I made a couple of calls at lunchtime (about 30 minutes in total) while connected to my bluetooth headphones, then sent and received a few SMSs. It's now about 6pm (12 hours since being taken off charge) and my phone is at 79%. (Also, I don't use gapps!)

Does that answer your question?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
You can wait for khalvat to reply, but you won't like the answer.

No, none of his builds will work on your phone :cry: (at least not properly).

The klte family of phones are very similar, the hardware is almost identical across models, but you still need a build specific for your phone. I have a klte and a kltedv, and I need to download two different ROMS, I can't use one ROM for both. I think you're stuck with a 2.5 year old LOS16. (That is, unless you want to be like khalvat and build it for your phone yourself!)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ronnor:
I got a problem with the fingerprint, it didn't work each time by using it. OK. But now I added a second fingerprint and then sometimes i could not get in my phone, the screen stays black, only the clock was visible. I had to reset my phone. Then it works for a time, but the error came back again... Now I deleted the fingerprints and there is no error till now.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
There's a major red flag in your post - you haven't said what model of phone you have, much less which ROM you downloaded.

If you'd read through earlier comments, other people have also had issues with the fingerprint scanner among other features. Ninety percent of the time, the issue was the user had downloaded the wrong ROM. Check what model of phone you have, then check what ROM you've downloaded.

klte? kltechn? klteduos? kltechnduo? klteaio? klteactivexx? kltekor? kltekdi? kltedv?

Because you need the ROM for your device. You can't grab any ROM and expect it to work.

I'm going to take a guess that you downloaded the ROM for klteactivexx because it was highlighted green. I'm also going to take a guess that you don't have a klteactivexx phone. Check which phone you have, confirm if it's a klte, or a region version specific phone like my kltedv. Then go back and download the latest ROM from the appropriate folder, not the klteactivexx ROM highlighted green.

Charles Babbage was a mathematician and inventor back in the 1800s, and he designed a mechanical programmable calculator, basically a precursor to the first computer.

My favourite quote of his is "On two occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."

I swear, you could tweak that quote to suit this thread perfectly. "On many occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Khalvat, if I flash the wrong ROM onto my phone, will it work correctly?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ronnor:
Oh, ok... Sorry....

So, of course I have a klte without addition, as it says in the first post by khalvat :) And when I had the error after setting up the second fingerprint with the rom version 2023/04 I updated the rom to the latest I could find, so 2023/06. Unfortunately still with the problem.

I can handle it, I use the pattern then, but wanted to help with this. Also like to be available for experiments. :) For example you still need infos from the phone? As a model is written in the info SM-G900F. Anything more?

Otherwise, the Rom runs just mega good! Really good job done!

Is it possible to install MicroG on it (I don't need gapps) or does signature spoofing make it a problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
MicroG is possible. You need magisk and LSPosed. In combination with disabled selinux that solution is extremely vulnerable.

More secure: https://download.lineage.microg.org/klte/
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] RealSalva:
Mine has A11 with MicroG, my question is whether A13 works with MigroG. you say it's a risk, then no. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
A risk? Well, kurtn isn't wrong, but he also isn't exactly right.

I mean, khalvat is releasing LOS20/Android13 with SELinux disabled, and kurtn was happy to install it. Seriously, take a look, khalvat's latest release (23 June 2023) has SELinux disabled. It's fine.

This forum isn't for your average user, the fact you're inquiring about installing microg yourself onto an unofficical LOS20 tells me you have some idea what you're doing. Your phone doesn't need training wheels for you to be safe.

I installed microg on khalvat's latest LOS20 (23 June 2023) and it's working fine. I also had to install push notifications for MS Authenticator to work. I've had no issues.

It's not that hard to get it working, but it is a little messy.

You need Magisk, because LSPosed is a Magisk Module.

You need LSPosed, because FakeGapps is an Xposed/LSPosed module.

You need FakeGapps because it provides Signature Spoofing.

You need Signature Spoofing for MicroG Installer Revived to work.

You need MozillaNlpBackend and NominatimNlpBackend for locations to work.

You need SafetyNet Fix if SafetyNet isn't working.

I basically used this breakdown as the basis for getting it working.

Good luck! I got MicroG (with Push Notifications) working on khalvat's latest LOS20 (23 June 2023), you can too :cool:

(Oh, one thing - FakeGapps didn't initially give me Signature Spoofing, but I had it after installing FakeGapps2. Not sure if I did something wrong first time, or if I needed only FakeGapps2, or if I needed both, but just don't give up if you hit a snag!)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] greatninja:
i have 5 fingerprints added on klte with 23\06 and have no problem

try to flash rom with full wipes
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ronnor:
Hello GreatNinja, I had completely deleted all partitions before installing version 2023/04. And with this installation, the phone kept hanging. Now I would have to reinstall it completely again. Then I leave it like that for now. Thanks anyway! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
hello, i would like to install this rom, but there are no instructions for recovery installation and now i'm stuck in download mode. What should I do? Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
Install a custom recovery and boot it. That's not a speciality of this rom, but works on all old samsung phones the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
oh so i can download and flash from odin latest twrp?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] greatninja:
yes
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
The Great Ninja is correct, you can get the latest TWRP from here and the latest Odin from here.

There are lots of dodgy sources of Odin available around the internet, but they're likely full of malware or some other flaw. Best to get Odin from XDA Developers., my link above. Currently 3.14.1_3B_PatcheD, from Feb this year.

While you need the specific ROM for your phone (e.g. klte, kltedv), the TWRP for klte will work for all the phones khalvat is providing ROMs for.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
hello, sorry to bother you. The flashing from odin has no problem and it says "success".

But with auto reboot either on or off the phone won't reboot into recovery.

When it's in recovery (stock) mode, it won't boot in other ways than that, except when you select "reboot system".

When it is in download mode, the same.

Flashing twrp in dowload mode seems successful as the bar proceeds until the end. But there's no way to get into twrp after that. Can secureboot be the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
Disable auto reboot in odin. Flash twrp. Hold vol- and vol+ and power till screen goes dark. Immediately hold vol+ and home and power till yellow revovery text shows.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
Kurtn is spot on. Starting with the phone off, holding vol+ and power and home will boot the phone into recovery.

He also taught me something - I didn't know about the vol- and vol+ and power to shutdown after flashing! I was popping the battery out after successfully flashing the recovery o_O

No, the klte family doesn't implement that sort of thing, at least not secure-boot-style. There are some specific sub-models that are locked to carriers, but the models in use here (klte, kltechn, klteaio, kltedv, etc) aren't locked.

I had to jump through hoops to unlock my Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019) before flashing LineageOS, it ultimately needed a multi-disabler flashed to unlock its bootloader. But Samsung wasn't locking the bootloader like that back in 2014 with the S5. (From memory they introduced locked bootloaders with the S6 or S7.)
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Cough cough.

AT&T's S5 SM-G900A has an impossible to unlock bootloader because that's what they requested from Samsung.

The Galaxy S5 SM-G900V has a locked bootloader because Verizon requested it from Samsung & it's a pain in the butt to unlock for one of the variant while the other cannot be unlocked.

See this XDA thread: Root, Bootloader Unlocks, and More!

*****
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Errr... you cannot "Hold vol- and vol+" at the same time because on the S5 it's a rocker button. So you can press either one or the other.

You can safely simulate a battery removal if you press Volume down + Power button for 10-20 seconds while frozen, in bootloop or Download Mode: the Galaxy S5 goes black & turns off.

If you keep on pressing the buttons until the Samsung bootloader splash screen appears & release them then the S5 should reboot in System.

To boot in recovery after flashing TWRP: with the device powered off, hold Volume Up + Home + Power. When the blue text appears, release the buttons.

*****
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
Yes, I know, that's the model I was literally referencing when I said "there are some specific sub-models that are locked to carriers", but you chose not to quote that part.

I also said "the models in use here (klte, kltechn, klteaio, kltedv, etc) aren't locked", which is also true and you chose not to quote that part.

It's almost as if you didn't bother reading my entire comment, or you simply chose to cherry picked the parts you thought could use to make yourself sound smart. You also didn't notice this very thread has already brought up the SM-G900A and how it isn't supported, and how I've actually spoken about that model specifically myself, linking to a comment by haggertk (one you literally responded to yourself!)

But, you know, cough cough and all that, you're very clever. *slow clap*
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
Welcome back.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
thanks kurtn and DarkSteve! I managed to flash latest twrp and then flash los20 + gapps core (which work even if they should be 64bit on a 32bit device, but it's good news ig)

everything seems to work wonderfully

the only weird thing i noticed is that the auto time zone doesn't work really well. Apparently, it doesn't syncronize at all since the time is wrong with internet connection on even after reboot. Is this normal? Could be this the reason I get error 400 (problem with the server) on youtube app? Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
i dunno man, somehow it worked immediately with me
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] curiousrom:
Network (carrier) unlocking is not the same as bootloader unlocking.

Sorry if you got offended but I skimmed the thread and the 2 phrases I quoted caught my eye because they were wrong..

Check my posting history, 2,000 posts on XDA since 2011 and you will see that I don't play those games & have noting to prove.

Check your "Reactions receiveid" and you will see that I "Liked" a few of your posts recently and before I made that one. ;)

***
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] DarkSteve:
When I do a clean install, it defaults to the US instead of Australia (where I am). I'm kinda used to it, so changing location is something I'm accustomed to. I normally set my time zone in TWRP before I set it in Lineage.

Some things use my IP to autodetect and default to Australia, but not many. Even then, detecting my location using IP normally has them guessing I'm in Campbelltown (western Sydney), or Newcastle, when in reality I'm in Canberra (in the Australian Capital Territory). Location detection is rather ****house in my experience.

But then again, I don't use gapps, so I don't have google looking over my shoulder telling everyone what I'm doing and where I am.

EDIT: I didn't even realise what I said was considered swearing, but then I saw the stars blocking out a common but apparently naughty word! :ROFLMAO:
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
yes but i want to sell this phone because it is in very good condition and in my closet is useless. I never saw problems with time sync in any los20 rom i installed in various devices, maybe i did something wrong

ip location should be sufficiently precise for approximative position thus time zone

edit: ok, time seems to have fixed itself during some time, maybe processor lag dunno. Anyway, should the speaker work? Because mine doesn't
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
Sell with lineageOS 20 installed? The customer must have really a lot of trust. Sell them some healing stones.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
why? 😂
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
Why healing stones? Less expensive. Better profit margin.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
your sarcasm isn't helping. Now I'm not even interested in your point anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
Hello, I have a problem with this rom. Loudspeaker doesn't work. In los18 official it worked weird: calls were from loudspeaker but I couldn't manage to listen to youtube audio from browser. In this los20 calls audio is emitted from front ear speaker and not from loudspeaker. Couldn't manage to emit any sound from loudspeaker in any way. Is this a known problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] ProcyonNova:
Good god, SO MUCH this. I couldn't believe all the hoops I had to jump through just to break the damn bootloader on my G900V. Windows Defender was VERY convinced I was going to blow up the moon, or something.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] LR7875:
To be fair some less intelligent customers are willing to spend their money on some MT6735 iPhone clone, which this Galaxy s5 is miles ahead of.

Also, some healing stones with “scalar energy” are actually radioactive and will make the Geiger counter scream.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] Edmondo Occhipinti:
Hello. To users which currently run this rom: does your loudspeakers work? Just to know, thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] kurtn:
No problems, last time i had it installed.
[Samsung Galaxy S 5 Unified Development] io2345:
Tried it and had a good impression. Working perfect without any problems. This version is not worse than LOS 18, maybe even a little faster.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get used to the way that Android 13 behaves (swiping from different sides and to different heights of the screen). Went back to offical Lineage Release.

There is no solution, because there is no Problem. Come back if you find a microG feature that worked on 18.1 and doesn't on 20.0
