Hi, @curiousrom .
As I told you at Reddit post, maybe I'll give it a chance later if no solutions come up.
But for now, I prefer to remain "official".
Soon I will submit a bug report on the LineageOS website.
Thanks again.

I have a SM-G860P (aka Samsung Galaxy S5 Sport - very similar to the S5 Active, no fingerprint reader and uses physical buttons for navigation) but there is no build for this device.
Can I modify the flashable ROM zip file so that I can attempt to flash it on my phone? If so, how?
I do understand the risk of bricking my phone, but I'm stuck on Lineage OS 14.1 since there are no proper new builds for this specific S5 variant.

There might be a possibility BUT did you check hardware similarity?
If yours has not at least the same CPU it's imho no use trying.

Afaik it should work exchanging the hints for klte aso to your device inside these files:
"updater-script" and "metadata".
Probably you can find out the correct designation of your device using ADB (can't remember the command atm).
I've unzipped the ROM in linux.
Changing words, saving the files and rezipping there works.
Don't know if on Windows it works as well.
I've attached 3 pics to show where to find those files:

Is there any hope that there maybe VoLTE in the future? T-Mobile shut down 3G and the phone was not making
phone calls and texting with LineageOS 18.1 so I reverted back to stock 6.1. Are there any solutions?
It works with stock. So it's not a matter of how old the phone is. Remember this is a post about Samsung Galaxy S5. But thank you for your answer.
You are right. It's not about the age of the phone. It's just the brand. Avoid Samsung if you want to run aosp based custom ROM.
i had the patch to raise the mic audio after the update 06/23 it disappeared the audio is all silent s900f
Hello,
has anyone else the problem, that Chrome (114.0.5735.196) no longer laods pages?
The search suggestions are still displayed, but a page visited on them is no longer rendered.
I have 3 different LOS 18.1 devices and on all devices Chrome is broken.
Found a Issue Report.
Link to my reddit post.
Greetings,
Martin

I tried Version 114.0.5735.196 APK - without success.
Chrome Canary 117.0.5874.0 works, so there is hope that it might be a bug that will be fixed in a future Chrome release.
Btw... how is the LOS browser actually updated?
Only in the course of ROM updates?
bromite works very well it is similar to chrome, if you want to use chrome use the latest version compatible with android 6
ca I leave the bromite download link

Bromite is a Chromium fork with ad blocking and enhanced privacy; take back your browser
Hey. Is it possible, that the Rom got a RIL Error via the monthly update? I hope i´m posting the issue in the right position.

Even if that wasn't the original question - thanks anyway!
I am currently using brave and it works fine as well.
As long as no other Google service or Chrome WebView whatnot are affected, I can live with the problem.

1it is impossible that it does not go into download mode you have to hold down power + home + volume down for a few seconds until you feel it vibrate with odin connected1
Switching networks is normal for custom ROMs on Samsung. They don't have VoLTE to make calls in 4G network. So they switch to 2G/3G for calling.1
I can use my G900F at least one complete day before charging it. If the screen is ON, battery last 3 hours. I don't have any Google Apps. -

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 11, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps) . LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.
Device source code:
- msm8974-common (shared by all Samsung msm8974 devices): LineageOS/android_device_samsung_msm8974-common
- klte-common (shared by all klte* devices): LineageOS/android_device_samsung_klte-common
- klte: LineageOS/android_device_samsung_klte
- klteactivexx: LineageOS/android_device_samsung_klteactivexx
- kltechn: LineageOS/android_device_samsung_kltechn

Build Compatibility:
The noted models are the only ones supported. If you have a model that isn't listed and ask politely then I might work to add compatibility.
Build Model klte SM-G900F, SM-G900M, SM-G900R4, SM-G900R7, SM-G900T, SM-G900V, SM-G900W8 klteactivexx SM-G870F klteaio SM-G900AZ, SM-S902L kltechn SM-G9006V, SM-G9008V kltechnduo SM-G9006W, SM-G9008W, SM-G9009W klteduos SM-G900FD, SM-G900MD kltedv SM-G900I, SM-G900P kltekdi SC-04F, SCL23 kltekor SM-G900K, SM-G900L, SM-G900S

Compatibility Notes:
- Bootloader version doesn't matter. Anyone who tells you so doesn't know what they are taking about. My Developer Edition G900V is still running the original 4.4.2 KK aboot. My G900W8 is running the latest 6.0.1.
- All builds except for klteactivexx and klteaio MUST be running a marshmallow (6.0.1) radio for RIL to work. If you are about to report that RIL/radio isn't working then I pretty much guarantee this is your issue.
- You MUST be running a marshmallow (6.0.1) NON-HLOS for the fingerprint reader to work. If you are about to report a fingerprint reader problem then you either have old firmware (update it), your /data was previously encrypted and you performed a "clean" flash without FORMATTING /data (start over and FORMAT /data), or your reader is just broken.
- External SD cards don't support POSIX (ext*, f2fs) or NTFS filesystems anymore. If this affects you then just bite the bullet, copy any data off you really want to save, and reformat as exfat.
- The latest TWRP seems like it works, but if someone has issues then perhaps try using the actual supported recovery.
- I absolutely don't personally accept them. If you really feel that this work deserves it, then find a local food bank or animal shelter/rescue and throw some money their way. You can also throw some the way of LineageOS, but we're actually doing pretty well right now.
11Official LineageOS 18.1 Updates Now Monthly!
Bad news & good news. LineageOS in the recent past supported only 2 Android versions @ the same time because of infrastructure, LineageOS automated builder, servers & volunteer staff limitations and with the current testing and eventual launch of LOS 20.0 (no ETA questions please), all 18.1 supported devices should be on the chopping block.
But this time the devs made an exception. This LineageOS Gerrit Code Review change removed 89 devices from the weekly build roster Drop 18.1 devices:
And this change added 57 LineageOS 18.1 devices to the new monthly build roster: "I am alive, but very badly burned". Note that the S5 klte* family is on that lineage-build-targets list!
Several of those legacy devices like the klte* cannot be promoted to official 19.1 or 20 as explained in LineageOS Changelog 26 - Tailored Twelve, Audacious Automotive, Neat Networking, Devoted Developers > Let’s talk about legacy devices chapter.
You can see the current LineageOS build roster in the hudson/lineage-build-targets on GitHub. At the present there are 105 devices supported with LineageOS 19.1 weekly builds & + the 57 LineageOS 18.1 devices.
An amazing achievement for a volunteer-based organization. ↑ (ツ)
I'm grateful for those LineageOS 18.1 devices that will get about 1 years' worth of monthly Android security bumps & some other changes. ٩(- ̮̮̃-̃)۶

It's (likely) not. I've found an issue in the legacy paths of the recent sdfat (Samsung exfat driver) revision. I haven't been able to recreate the bug/assert after the fix. After getting a second confirmation I'll upload the merge the change.
Every kernel < 4.8.y that had updated to sdfat 1.4.5 is affected.9S5 LineageOS 18.1 Update 2021-05-09 - Security Bump, Camera U.I. Fix & Kill App Option
Using the built-in Updater I OTA updated S5 G900M LineageOS 18.1 klte build 2021-05-02 + MindTheGapps + Magisk 22.1 + TWRP 3.5.2_9-0 to build 2021-05-09: everything went smoothly & GApps + Magisk survived the update.
There are a bunch of changes as you can see in https://download.lineageos.org/klte/changes/ but of note:
After the automatic reboot as seen in the screenshot > Settings > About phone > press on Android version > Android security update: May 5, 2021.
The Vendor security patch level just below it remains @ August 1, 2017 because the vendor is Samsung & it is not publishing security patches for it's S5 proprietary hardware related blobs anymore since August 2017.
See Android Security Bulletin - May 2021 for details about the security fixes.
With the change Snap: use translucent control background on 16:9 the stock camera is showing the full frame preview again (screenshot). There are other minor Camera changes.
Interesting also there is a new Kill foreground app option in > Settings > System > Buttons > for Home, Back & Recents buttons which is useful when an app is frozen or you want to prevent it from using some RAM in the background (screenshot). Note that it may make it slower to open that killed app the next time you want to use it.
BTW you can create a direct link to Updater & much more with the LineageOS Settings widget. I stacked a few of them on Home to create a LineageOS shortcut folder for quick access.
Thank you to the Lineage Team & Mr. haggertk for keeping our old S5 up to date.
