See what happens if you add ”ro.telephony.mms_data_profile=5" (without quotes) to your build.prop.

The issue deals with MMS management and the impact on Internet (3G/LTE) connection.

Every time I receive or I send a MMS, I loose the internet connection whereas the network status indicator shows more than 3 bars out of 5 connected into LTE.
(This issue is 100% reproductible)
Question to this. Do you have problems with ethernet via (3G/LTE) also without any MMS attempts?
So is the missing ethernet connection the reason for your MMS problems, or does MMS triggers your ethernet-problems.

I am asking, because I don't uses MMS at all, but have problems with stability of 3G/LTE or radio in general.
I can see that strength of field (how many stripes for receiption quality) is going up and down with no change of external environment (moving around, shaking....).
I am wondering, whether is this an hardware issue of my modem, connectivity of SIM card, software-problem or less likely a provider issue. (last I can exclude).
Currently I don't have another SIM to test ....

His issue has to do with his provider using an MMS only APN. If RIL isn't aware of this it interferes with the data connection. This is why he was losing connection.

After weeks of searching I finally found the cause of the Snapchat/SafetyNet error.
I just pushed the kernel patches which fix the issue. With the patches Snapchat works (no Magisk required) and Safetynet also works with Magisk.

The patches will be in the next ROM builds I guess. Either from me, ayke, zytrix, ...
That... sounds... promising!!!

Hi Starbright,

It true that this issue that you are describing is not the same as the one fixed by Spookcity138.

However, before I focused on this MMS issue I had been experiencing similar network unstability and loss of signal power (without moving). I was at the office with an antenna 200meters far, I had 4bars out if 5 connected to LTE and serveral times a day, without moving my phone from my desk, I dropped to zéro bars and to a total loss of access to internet with an incapacity to catch the network.

I had been un contact with my carrier customer support several times.

They trued to tell me that the S5mini was known for its very bad performances to catch and keep it synchronized / I answered that I had no similar issue with my former service provider lol moreover I check with a S4mini (my former phone and an iPhone and the dame issue was reproduced )

From the checks I did, I insisted on the fact that is issue either come from their network settings and/or an quality issue on the SIM card. I insisted si much that the "expert level" of their technical support contactés me back and performed a bunch of tests/ they told my that they changed setting on their sides about the TA managment [don't ask me what it is lol] and I was asked to lonitor the changes... As I did not see major changes I requested to be provided with a Brand new SIM card.... The network became far more stable...

and then I focused on the MMS issue (since I use MMS almost everyday lol).

So it is very likely that the new SIM card did fix the unstability/loss of signal ... But I can't tell if the modification done on the carrier side did not also contribute to the final dix (only SIM or combined solutions) :good:

PS through the exchanges with the technical support I have been invited to install the App "Open Signal". I was explained that it help to enhance the terminal capability to find and synchronyze on a network by building an mapping of the antennas around your geo location... :confused:

Who can upgrade TWRP 3.1.1-0
** POST modified ** Disregard it since I did manage to upgrade from TWRP 3.0.0 to 3.1.0 (and not 31.1).
To install it I used the IMG file provided through the appropriate XDA thread. I copied the *.IMG file onto my internal memory. Rebooted into TWRP. Select Install then Install image.

To do so, I copies the *.IMG file onto my internal memory. I switched my phone off and rebooted into TWRP.

I entered Recovery and selected from Image ( I will redo it for the exact wording and will updatz this post)

I know how to update this on our phone. I asked who would build a new TWRP. Https://twrp.me/site/update/2017/05/19/twrp-3.1.1-0-released.html. (Google Translate)

hey @hennymcc
is there a way of having ambient display directly in settings? I really like it and I activate it by modifying the systemui apk and framework-res, but everytime I update the ROM I have to do it again.

Issues with device after a few weeks

At first, sorry for my bad language skiIls, I am from Germany :)
Well...
I really liked this OS and exept a few things, it worked really well the first 3 Weeks.
Then following happened:
I tried to start the phone in recovery mode (TWRP) just to look up the features of it a little bit. But then, when I tried to plug in the USB Cable from PC, I realized that MTP did not Work. I restarted my Phone, I installed the drivers correctly, I tried this on other PC's and yes, I tried it with different cables (original from Samsung).
It also did not work to change the Protocol type in the developer options, when I changed it to MTP, it just changed to "only charging" itself.
Bad luck for me, I thought. R.I.P. MTP... Maybe a Hardware Error?
Well...
Then it is a little bit strange that Odin identifies my Phone in Download Mode, when I plug it in!
At this point I want to add that my device had more than just the MTP issue afteron. For example, Bluetooth did not work and the Phone freezed sometimes (like every 2h).

As my only hope, I tried to flash the lollipop 5.1.1 firmware from SamMobile on it (VIA).


After installing the Firmware I had the same Problems. It is even harder now because now the phone freezes every 10 minutes.
The Firmware is ~2GB and LineageOS is <1GB large. Maybe the phone cannot hold a larger system after beeing on a little system before? I really don't know...
So as you can see, I can't really say if this is an Hardware or an Software Error. That is why I need help.
I am thankful for every comment.

I'll split your message up into multiple pieces in order to make this more clear.

I don't know if this is what you mean, but TWRP does not support file transfers, only ADB installs.

At this point I want to add that my device had more than just the MTP issue afteron. For example, Bluetooth did not work and the Phone freezed sometimes (like every 2h).
Your Bluetooth issue sounds strange but freezes are quite frequent and can be expected from an S5 mini (although LiquidROM is really smooth).

The size of the file shouldn't be a big deal. Did you do a clean install?



How to flash twrp 3.1.1 na Samsung galaxy s 5 mini
It isn't available yet for our device, I think. Only 3.1.0 is available at the moment.

Thank you for your answer! But TWRP supports MTP. You can see that at the teminal window. But it didnt worked after a few weeks And bricked MTP for my device. All this issues came lateron which shows that there was an error with TWRP while loading MTP, which occurred the other errors like domino.
