The default MTU value already is 1492 in the router. However in my case, the problem is conflict between the phone and the router. Changed the router that I paid a lot to the router that my ISS gave me for free and it works. Not sure which to blame, the router or the phone. The ASUS DSL 17U...

Tried all but none of them worked except the last one. Only switching to another router solves the problem. In my case, the router that conflicts with the phone is the ASUS DSL 17U.

Apps such as Twitter, Netflix does not work over Wi-Fi. They work perfectly fine when the phone is on cellular data. The phone got 01.2020 update. Tried wiping, reset router but still same. Thanks for any help in advance.

No help from XDA but at least I was able to find a workaround so I leave it here I have found two apps called Stay Alive! and Touch Lock that suit exactly what I need. It is possible to download them at Play Store. One is responsible for preventing the phone goes dark and the other one is...

Hello folks. I have a Galaxy S5. Couldn't be more happier (!) with this phone. First it had overheating issues since I had updated the phone and now its screen does not open UNLESS I heat the screen with pressure or hair dryer. I had checked this out and it is turned out common problem with...

Yes so that I force my dad to buy me a new phone instead of this garbage S5 :D :silly:

the Galaxy S5 is a decent smartphone when it works properly so please take my advice and perform a firmware update to the latest ASAP after you buy it and see if anything wrong. I haven't updated my S5 after purchased and used about six months until needed to perform a firmware update (for...

Hey guys. I'm not content with my current phone right now so would like to buy another phone. What I need from a phone: -Android (obviously) -Replaceable battery -Expandable storage -Maximum 5.0-5.1" size or lower -Relatively new (means a year old or maximum two) -USB-C and fast charging -Black...

Hey Droidriven. I am trying to brick my S5 via flashing the S4 rom. I tried maybe ten times but I am still able to flash the S5 rom via Odin and get back my phone running again. I would like to flash one of LG's or Sony's devices' roms but is it possible to do it via Odin or do I need something...

you rock :good: hope they won't blame me in desperately to not replace the phone after it doesn't boot

This might even work :D How do I do it? :)) It is their OTA update which did mess up my phone so it is fair :)

Sadly it reports 0x1 due to rooting. Couldn't be able to return it back to 0. Samsung did implement something so that the user won't default it. I remember I did manage doing it for the S4 but it can't be done for the S5 (and the newer Samsung smartphones I think). Isn't there even a slightest...

Oh I misunderstood. I have a stock firmware sized approximately 2.36 gigs. How can I extract the kernel from it? I did flash the whole but would like to try separately flash the kernel.

Yes this is how I do. There is usually only one file. I also did try that but it is the same.

the 40 degrees Celsius battery with only browsing..

I'm thinking RMA but the phone rooted once. What would Samsung do if they find that out? Will they void the warranty? If so, will they still repair the phone for a price?

Yes the all parts are originals. The phone never repaired. Yes I did try to clean flash via Odin. I'm afraid the problem is being hardware..

I did root the phone once, flash custom roms and kernels. It didn't help but didn't tweak cpu freqs or close clusters at that time. Also I couldn't use banking app due to rooting. It claims this is due to security problems. I use that banking app often on a stock rom. Btw do you know why the...

I'll take my chances believing on Samsung rather than people on the internet ;)

Yes even did try factory data reset too. Did flash whole stock rom via Odin as well. I have those apps installed but I optimize them via Smart Manager except Whatsapp to make sure they don't constantly scanning and updating as you described.

Yes it was a Lollipop OTA update. Not from KitKat to Lollipop kind of update or vice versa though. Within Lollipop. Playing games are even worse. I can feel the both rear and front become hot. It used to be lukewarm even when playing games. Couldn't figure out what happened.

Samsung lolol. It is their official statement on voiding warranty. They always look to see if it had been rooted first. They will try to find whatever disqualifier they can.

It's a stock rom. In fact it is occurred after an OTA update. It used to work well before that. It's overheating only with just browsing. At some point I did see over 80 celsius on cpu and 40 celsius on battery. Isn't it extreme? I did change the battery too.

How to put gpu on battery save?

How to fix the overheating problem of my S5?

Wow. This is great! Oh my. I'm having an overheating problem with my S5 which occurred after a stock rom update. Couldn't solve it. Did everything I could. Very frustrating. The CPU temp is around over 80 celsius with only browsing. I have been searching to find a way to downclock the CPU freq...

Is there a logical reason of overheating the phone after performing a firmware update?

I would love to use this rom but I'm afraid due to security problems like banking. Is there a way to use this rom without root?

Too good to be true. Which isn't true anyway.

Just browsing. Attached screenshots to the thread. Battery at peak at 40 celsius and CPU at 82 celsius. I feel it is becoming hot on both rear and screen too. What should I do? It is not used to be like this. Use to happening after performing the firmware update. Did factory data reset. Ambient...

I'm having the same problem. That is not normal. I just saw 89 celsius, haven't playing any games or installing apps. How can I fix it?

Still no cure?

Yes they are good but I don't like its polycarbonate frame. Can I use it that frame off?

Hello. I'm looking for a case to my phone in hope for improving its grip because it is a very slippery one. Which case I should choose? I heard rubber material is good. It is a general question than for one specific device. What are your recommendations? Thanks.

It is too complicated for me. If you could just point how to downlock the CPU's clock speed then I can try and see if it works to prevent overheating. Also let's say I decide to return to stock rom. Will current kernel replace with stock one?

I'm gonna install your ROM to my good old S4. I am using your Revolution ROM for the S5 right now and I'm loving it. I hope I will like this one too. By the way, could you please add one-handed operation feature to the S5 rom too? I love this feature and Samsung's stock roms for the S5 natively...

I just installed it and I like it. Not much different but newer. Probably gonna keep it if there will be no stability issues with other themes from Theme Store. By the way, the OP recommends his Revolution ROM for the S4 and even it has got one-handed operation feature. :(...

I actually don't care about custom roms. As long as I can find a solution for stock roms I would return to them. Could you please give me your solution for stock roms?

I mentioned firmware updates because I was wondering if stock (Samsung) rom firmware update did break something in stock kernel. Is it possible? I'm %99 positive this happened after the latest firmware update. I mainly flashed this custom rom to get rid of overheating problem but the problem...

Ah. I haven't done much things till now since yesterday so I might try it still. Are they all the S5's MM themes? Or the S6 Edge Plus and Note 5 together?

I know right? :laugh: Can't believe I stayed there for too long. Regret I didn't do it sooner. It turned out rooting system and flashing custom roms aren't evil and scary as other people think (used to one of them :P). ---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 PM...

I see. What FC stands for at the end of camera sentence? Let's say I flashed Samsung's original stock rom of Lollipop 5.0 or MM 6.0.1. One AP file over 2gigs unzipped via Odin. Will the hispasian kernel replace with originals or stay still? If it is the latter, how can I change it to stock? I...

All of them? Also, do you know what will happen if I install a stock rom over hispasian kernel?

So I think I should update kernel on this custom rom with a new one? Because the OP says that flash hispasian kernel after flashing his rom. I haven't do that yet, nor I have experience about it. I believe I have a custom rom with stock kernel right now. I don't think it is related to custom...

Indeed, nothing much. Nice. However I would like to install things you suggested. These: 1.flash the hispasian kernel as described in the seconde post 2.flash the photo editor fix 3.flash the marshmallow theme it's very cool 4.flash the 23 toggles and csc mod (not necessary) I do need root...

Sure. I haven't touched to kernel yet but I have a custom rom installed. I just installed it yesterday. Was using stock rom of Lollipop 5.0 of my country before. I also tried the UK rom (BTU) but all the same.

Thanks for the quick reply mate. Is it gonna say which apps will be effected when removing root access? Or do I have to try and see to know that?
