Now it is a "real" S5 ))
Sound control?
The Boeffla control app v. 2.1.73 only offers volume adjustments in the Boeffla-Sound section. I tried running the Boeffla Sound Control App v. 1.7.1 from the market as well as a presumably modified version I found on XDA, but both force close immediately. Is there a way to take more advantage of the Boeffla-Sound options on this kernel (2.0-beta3-CM 12.1)?
Issue with CPU and GPU frequencies
Hello...
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 and i have installed CM12 with the latest kernel 1.0 beta3 and i experience freezes and hot reboots...
I have not overclocked anything as you can see from the pictures and i have left all frequency clock settings at default values, but when i go to CPU-Z i see the values of CPU and GPU overclocked...
In the attached images i have the default settings in Boeffla for CPU on 2457MHz and in GPU at 578MHz and in CPU-Z i see that max CPU frequency is 2.84GHz and GPU is 657MHz...
Why is this happening?
Thank you in advance for your help...

Issue with CPU and GPU frequencies
It is being answered by Lord Boeffla...
All is normal. Tools like cpu-z and others always display the maximum possible frequency, regardless of what you cap the frequency to.
So, it just shows something not correct.
You can verify that very easily by using tools like CPU Spy etc and you will see, these high frequencies are indeed not used unless you allow it.
The reasons is: These tools always assume, when overclocking frequencies are available, they are used. Which is not the case by default in my kernel.
nameless rom KLTE 4.4.4

Hi! Thanks in advance. Im having problems with the kernel. Im using resurrection rom and this kernel, and Im suffering a battery draining specially when I put the phone off and I go to sleep or something.

Hello Boeffla,
i use your kernels since S3 and i was so happy when i read, that you also support the S5....
I'm very happy with the kernel and i never had problems with the kernel at all (using smoove, interacitve, conservative)!
I really appreciate when you further support the S5 development!

I tried this kernel (2.1-beta8) on BlissPop v3.6 (BlissPop-v3.6-klte-OFFICIAL-20150701-2254), but some features didn't work (ex: couldn't use tethering).
IMPORTANT: BlissPop is "customized" rom, so you must read and understand when want to use:

Sm 900m
Kernel working with s5 SM-900m?
I would like to test this kernel with Exodus ROM 5.1.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/orig-development/rom-team-exodus-klte-t3135876). Is it compatible? If yes, how do I know what version of the kernel to take (CM11, CM12, CM12.1, Stock Lollipop 5.0)?
Thanks.
Problems with bluetooth on g900t
I have a g900t with cyanogenmod 12.1 installed. Whenever I try to pair my sony speakers to my phone the speakers do not work properly. So my question is, can I installed this kernel on my g900t? would this fix the bluetooth problem?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I am new to this. Just got my S5 today.
The phone still got Android 5.0 with TouchWiz on it (original Samsung firmware) and is not rooted yet. I want to install CM 12.1 later. What kind of kernel do I need now? If I install the kernel via Odin is my phone then rooted and ready to install CM 12.1?
Thanks for any help.

I installed Boeffla Kernel and CM12.1 successfully. All works fine. However, my phone always says that I have no root rights. Boeffla Kernel for sure is installed and is showing up in my settings. What can be wrong?

You have to enable root, or to flash SuperSU (a third party, actually the most popular root solution for Android.).
I would actually like to recommend you the stock CyanogenMod root, but I myself am using SuperSU for a while, and I would have to search how to use the stock CM root with 12.1.
So either install SuperSU app from the play store, and download this zip: download.chainfire.eu/supersu, boot to recovery and flash it, to enable Chainfire's closed source root, or Google 'How to enable root on CyanogenMod 12.1' to find out how to use CyanogenMod's own root solution.
Edit:
So I dont have to type everything (instructions how to enable CyanogenMod's own root implementation, IIRC, and if nothing has changed in the meantime, it is Koush's implementation, which is open source:

Hello guys, I'm going to start out saying I’m a complete noob at rooting, getting custom ROMS, ect...
I just rooted my tablet for the first time using a guide from this thread here.
Now I want to be able to use Xposed on my tablet so i can use RootCloak, and various other modules. I read here that I need to made sure my ROM is deodex in order for it to work.
I guess my question is what I need to do from here to get Xposed working on my Tablet?
Model No. : SM-T530NU
Build: LRX22G.T530NUUEU1BOE5
Android 5.0.2
Thank you for any help/advice you all can give.
EDIT: I know how to flash a ROM w/ TWRP now, But I can't seem to find a deodex ROM that will work with my Model/Build.
EDIT2: I'm at work doing all this research so i haven't had time to toy with this yet, but.. I found the CM13 will work but i need to flash this firmware first.. but my question here is when i need to flash the Xposed framework, does that affect the firmware i neeed to get CM13 to work? :'( Someone kill me pls..
EDIT3: After 5 days of Trial and error and a ton of research.. I successfully flashed a custom ROM (bliss pop) and got Xposed working using the SDK23 version.
EDIT4: Officially solved and posted a guide on how I got the ROM / Gapps / Xposed working here. Enjoy.
Has anyone got Android pay working on any of the custom ROMs available for this device?
I managed it on Mi5 using magisk but haven't been able to try it on the mi note 2 yet
Worked on every ROM i extensively tried. (Ressurection Remix, Cardinal, Cosmic, AOSP Extended, CrDroid)
But i needed Magisk installed or else it gave me a warning that my device was modified and Pay cant work on modded device and app quits.
Hey guys,
The rooting experience becomes worst these days..
Everyone wants a great rooting experience.. but it can't ?
First I installed lineage OS on device.. and I encountered by so many bugs in it.. then I switched to RR ROM.. it's the worst ROM I ever had.. it failed to install Magisk and Su.. Omg!
After failed to install Magisk.. I decided install lineage OS and I installed stock gapps all seems well but at the end the xposed framework and BusyBox could not be installed in magisk
Did you know that those ROMS are treble, and they require different modded magisk and different TWRP?

Why don't you try to learn about how to do these things first, instead of just trying everything, there are 1000s of people who are very much satisfied with the "rooting experience", so instead of everyone being wrong, don't you think you are not doing things correctly. And there's no need to open threads to express your opinion in Guides forum. If you are having trouble with any of the ROMs, ask in their forum, many are happy to help you.
Hi Guys,
Is it possible to install a custom ROM without installing Magisk?
Nowadays it is not possible to use many banking apps(Tez etc.) with a rooted device.
I have tried with AOSP extended but the device was not booting without Magisk !!
Somebody, please help.
Thanks in advance :good:
As far as I know, custom ROM will not pass Safetynet without Magisk, so even if you boot it up, Tez isn't probably going to work anyway. Try for example this instead https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-tez-hider-t3796567
