G901F and ANT+

I have Samsung Galaxy S5 G901F, latest official Android 6.0.1.
ANT+ doesn't work with this combination. I've tried Endomondo, IpBike and official ANT+ Plugin Sampler. They do not even start to scan for ANT+ accessories.
ANT+ Plugin Sampler gives message: "ANT adapter not available. Built-in hardware or external adapter required"
I've installed ANT Checker application. It gives info that device is ANT capable but there is no built-in firmware that supports ANT (screenshot attached) .
I've checked friends phones with Galaxy S5 G900F with Android 5.0.1 and 6.0.1 and these version fully support ANT+. Everything works.
Is there any solution, any official or unofficial ROM that supports ANT+ with G901F?
Do older ROMs for G901F work with ANT+?

Hi. Old post, but I had the same issue after updating ROM on my Spring S5 to BlissPop. I love the ROM but wish ANT+ worked. I ended up fixing it by installing ANT+ ENABLER from app store... It cost $10 but for me it was worth it. It worked flawlessly. Would rather donate $10+ to the ROM if it was built in
Anyone knows ROM for G901F with ANT+ working?

List of Gear VR supported ROMs

I have spent the better half of the entire day looking for a ROM that i like but that also has Gear VR support embedded in it, the searching is looong and laborious and the list I have is somewhat small so I'd like to enlist the help of the community to post what ROM+rom version they are on and if it has or doesn't have Gear VR support so that people who are looking for that specific thing won't have to go through as much trouble as I am to find a compatible ROM.
I will update the list as people post so that it stays current. I plan on this covering more than just the VZW Note so please include what 910 model you have.
Supported Gear VR ROMs;
Omega Rom v4.0, 910V
MODest Rom v9, 910V
Non-Supported Gear VR ROMs;
Lineage OS 14.1, 910V
Nseven Rom v4, 910V
Does this means oculus working in those Roms?

S5 G900F - Battery drain since I updated LineageOS from 14.1 to 15.1

Hi !
I have a S5 since 5 years. All was ok before, when I had 130 / 150 apps on the phone, the battery use was normal.
The S5 was, until last July, with LineageOS 14.1. And in July, I updated with LineageOS 15.1
Immediately, I saw a abnormal battery use, drain.
The battery use was important, if I used or not the phone, if it was connected or in airplane mode, always the same important drain.
The battery was changed 6 months before
Since Septembrer, I have a S9+ for main phone (with all my apps).
The S5 is my spare phone (for my pro activity).
So I tested the S5:
- reset of the 15.1 rom
- install of the 14.1 + nano Gapps
- install of a official ROM
- restore of my backup (image) with 14.1
- with or without any app
- connected or in airplane mode (there is no any difference on the chart)
- with a new official battery (2 800mAh)
- with a new big battery (PowerBear 7 800mAh > 5 days with no use, in airplane mode)
- I used a Wakelock detector (with root access) : no any wake
- I updated TWRP to 3.2.3-0 (from 3.2.2-0)
It's still the same problem.
So, it's since I updated with LineageOS 15.1
When I restored my 15.1 backup with all my config and 150 apps (when it was working well), I checked "restore MODEM", but I had error message. With unchecked "Restore MODEM" the backup was working.
Now, I don't know what to do/test.
Please, do you have any idea?
thanks a lot.
+ i also faced this problem. When I used LineAge OS 14.1 on my galaxy s5 with micro gapps, the battery lasted a day easily.
Then I updated to LineAge OS 15 Pie and i have to charge 2 times a day even if i do not use it that much. The battery drain got sooo bad + i almost got no applications, only chrome, whatsapp, instagram, spotify and gapps...
please help us... also model g900f

1- Having the most recent modem for your S5 may help. I described here with screenshots how I updated my S5 using u/haggertk's Odin flashable bootloader & modem combos: S5 Odin Flashable Modem & Bootloader. haggertrk has for the G900F a G900FXXU1CQK3 bootloader and modem G900FXXU1CRH1 Odin flashable package here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=142043&sort_by=date&sort_dir=DESC
The higher the last 4 alphanumeric characters, the most recent it is.
Haggertk is the S5 klte + variants LineageOS maintainer & one of the LineageOS project directors.
Use DevCheck > System where you can see your current Bootloader & Radio which is the same as modem or baseband.

"...The battery was changed 6 months before" - Two shops in my village had brand new cosmetically perfect S5 batteries but with a lower weight so less capacity: fast charging & fast discharging & going bad after a few months. Do you have a fake battery with a weight of 40~40.2 grams or a 45~45.2 grams original Samsung for S5?
"...i get approx 1,5h screen-on time" - Maybe you need a new battery?

Hey thanks a lot !
So, Bootloader was : G900FXXS1CPI6
Radio : G900FXXU1CPC9
I just updated and now :
Bootloader : G900FXXU1CRH1
Radio : G900FXXU1CQK3
The last "official" battery I bought is 45,51 gr
I will let the phone on the table during few hours, then look the chart.
Thanks again ! I hope it's now working.
Same problem, the battery drain is still the same

I guess you did not follow the other link that I posted above: 2- See S5 Battery Life 15.1 vs 16.0.
If you do upgrade to LineageOS 16.0 for the S5 then post in that thread & maybe we can help you.

@curiousrom just ordered a new battery and a brand new charging cable. When they arrive, i will clean flash lineage os 15.1 again and also download the modem/bootloader you sent and tell you the results.
edit: just checked the weight of my apparently dead battery: 45-46 grams!

Thanks. I'm also on the verge to upgrade to LOS 16 from LOS 15.1. I have the same battery drain problem since 15.1.
However, for my SM-G900FD, I don't find any newer bootloader or modem then September2017: G900FDXXS1CQD2 and G900FDXXU1CQA4.
SM-G900F has received many more updates, latest is march 2019 (G900FXXU1CRH1_G900FXXU1CQK3).
Can somebody explain me the reason why there are no updates for the SM-G900FD, but quite some for the SM-G900F? Is this because no carriers supports the SM-G900FD any more, but some are still supporting SM-G900F? I see new Android Stock ROMs for SM-G900F until 2019 at sammobile.com
If modem + bootloader firmware might be updated soon also for the SM-G900FD, I would wait with upgrading to LOS 16.

Before updating the modem or flashing LineageOS make sure to backup the EFS partition in TWRP which you can restore in case of network connectivity problems.
Also write down and/or screenshot your current working APN settings.
curiousrom said:
The G900F & G900FD have identical specs so can run the same firmwares, modems & bootloaders. The FD is just a network branded F.

The SM-G900FD is the dual sim version of the SM-G900F.
So I would think I need specific firmwares for the SM-G900FD, right?

My internet access is sketchy but I can use my laptop instead of the XDA app, sitting next to my neighbor's house.
Sorry, what I posted above is incorrect & I edited the post. Working from memory I mixed up the G900FD with an other model.
"...I would think I need specific firmwares for the SM-G900FD, right?" - Yes.
The S5 SM-G900FD is the codename klteduos. LineageOS wiki page about the Samsung Galaxy S5 LTE Duos (G900FD/MD) (klteduos).
"... for my SM-G900FD, I don't find any newer bootloader or modem then September2017: G900FDXXS1CQD2 and G900FDXXU1CQA4." - That sounds about right according to https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-G900FD&rpp=15&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1 and https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s5/SM-G900FD/
Updato is using the word Phone for the modem/baseband in their respective download pages.
"If modem + bootloader firmware might be updated soon also for the SM-G900FD, I would wait with upgrading to LOS 16." - Nobody knows except Samsung if & when they will update their firmwares & it does not matter as you can update the modem via Odin flashable packages @ anytime while running any firmware.

Thanks for the Thanks. Feel free to hit the Thanks :good: button on the posts that you find useful. It's always appreciated & may indicate to other users that the post can be useful to them too.
"...I will update in the coming days" - Good. You could post a report in the [ROM][9.0][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 16.0 thread which is quite active with friendly & helpful S5 klte + variants LineageOS 16.0 users.
BTW GSam Battery Monitor works quite well on 16.0. There is a GSam user guide which is dated a little bit but informative: http://blogger.gsamlabs.com/2011/11/badass-battery-monitor-users-guide.html
Good luck!

So, after 1 week with LineageOS 16, I have still the same problem, a battery drain, always at the same speed, connected or in airplane mode, phone on my table (It's my spare phone, I don't use it).
BT, GPS, Wifi, data are disconnected.

I just installed GSam Battery Monitor (pro).
I'm charging the phone, and I will wait for 1 night of "use" to send screenshots in the same time on the other topic.
Thank you.
I still have the same issue.
Please, do you have any idea?
Try disabling fingerprint
Using fingerprint = 8-15 % drain per night
Without fingerprint - 1-2% per night

OTG support for Samsung J1 SM-J120A

I recently opened a J1 SM-J120A Galaxy Express that I had unopened since 2017 because of the requirement of VOLTE and my old Note-II does not support it.
So I was testing different devices and accessories including my J120A and noticed that it would not recognize my OTG-usb-32GB flash drive which works in several other android devices so I did some research based on the installed OS-android 6.0.1 and found very little until I came across possible hardware limitations that led me to a site with a review of the J1 (2016) which stated that it does not support USB-OTG (https://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-Galaxy-J1-2016-Smartphone-Review.169413.0.html)
1.) Is there any way to force OTG-storage support in the stock android 6.0.1?
2.) If not, is there any custom-ROM available that will allow OTG to work?...(Otherwise, I will just use MiXplorer and WiFi-ftp server which both work over wifi and usb-cable).

J510H (j5x3g) screen flickering

Most ROMs here are made for J510FN, but on my J510H I get screen flickering on all of them. Is there any way to fix it?
The only custom ROM I have found that works for my model is back from 2017, but it has its own issues: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/j5xnlte-j5x3g-lineage-os-14-1.3661936/
Maybe there is a way I could modify something for the ROM to work with my device, as I wouldn't expect everyone to make it also work for this device as it is not so popular, being a Ukraine model...
A link or something to a tutorial that is somewhat similar to what I have to do would be very helpful.
Thank you in advance.
