[Q] mm-qcamera-daemon causing camera fails and severe battery drain - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a friend who has an S5, not rooted, he's got a problem with mm-qcamera-daemon causing battery drain, he's been having this issue for some time and was previously on kit kat, he's more recently updated to lollipop but the problem has persisted, we initially thought that the issue was due to some apps using the camera but those apps have had their data cleared and have been removed to eliminate them, as he's not rooted what more can be done ?
Thanks in advance.

Depending on which model S5 it is, I believe that bug was fixed in BOC7, and now BOD3 is the latest, so there may be two newer firmwares he can try
Check sammobile dot com and ODIN to update if he has no OTA

[Q] Q: S5 system update notification - how to remove?

So, I'm having S5 - 2-3 days ago I updated from stock 4.4.2 to 5.0 - after 2 horrific days with battery life draining twice faster I decided to downgrade back to 4.4.2 - did it - all was well until I somehow downloaded the 5.0 update again and it's waiting to be installed... with that dreaded notification. Is there any way I can remove it and keep using 4.4.2?
I'm not sure about the message but if you were going to go through the hassle of downgrading why didn't you try 5.0 on a factory reset? Fixed the battery drain issues for me.
Same problem...

[Q] Upgrade from 4.4.2 to 5.x.x on S4 9505

Is it worth upgrading to lollipop. Right now i have an official 4.4.2 ROM installed and have slight overheating issues and SD card removed error messages. Are these problems removed in lollipop editions or are they even worse.
Do you recomend any other non official ROMs that solved this problems.
Factory reset the device and if The problem persists send it to warranty. Otherwise changing ROM will Not solve it.
Try GPE ROMs if youre curious, they are The best.

battery drains faster after lollipop update

Hi,
The reason i updated to lollipop because i read somewhere that it improves/enhances battery time/life. But after updating, my battery consumes half of the time which i was getting before update. Why is this?
Why battery drains faster than before?
Is this the battery problem or lollipop update is causing this?
My phone model is Galaxy S5 (SM-G900H)

Sadly, the only thing you can do is wait for another update.
It's a common issue. Google is aware of it. (It happens on the Nexus as well.)

CPU Overheating since lolipop update

Hey guys,
My friend's galaxy s5 is experiencing some overheating issues since the lolipop update. We obviously tried a full wipe & tried another rom, but nothing changed...
At the moment, opening a simple webpage seems to increase the CPU temp to about 60°C..
Did anyone experience that before ? Any tips ?
We'll probably try a KK rollback in a few days if things doesn't change..
Thanks
