Thanks!

a thing was done

It has the Oct 2020 ASB, latest chromium webview, latest tzdata, etc.

This firmware and your @haggertk willingness to keep it current is what keeps my S5 the well oiled machine that it is. Thank you so much for your continued support!

Thank you for keeping 14.1 updated. I use it as reference implementation for testing other android 7 ROMs. Can you pleaae tell me, why I am not able to advertise Bluetooth low energy beacons with android 7 custom ROMs? Android 8..10 works as expected.

14 is dead and has been for years, aside from security patches or tzdata updates, you get what you get.

If I had to guess, it either didn't work in the AOSP baseline that is 4 years old. That and the fact that 14 was the last branch that had the whole platform based on the hot mess that is CAF -- CAF's changes platform wide could have broken it even if it worked in AOSP.

Is there any reason why I cannot receive data with the new update other than a phone problem? I made no setting changes.

My bad it was a problem with the phone. sorry

Phone sometimes reboots after turning the screen on

I've done a clean install already, problem persists; can someone take a look at the logs, please? Tell me if there's anything else I should provide that might be helpful.

FYI, Privacy Guard is deprecated in Lineage 17 (Android 10) and above and a "no go" for me!
The app option "start at boot" should be in the hand of the user, not only for battery reasons.
Just another example of Giigle's dictatorship!

Therefore, I appreciate Lineage 14.1 a lot as well as...

Sorry for the late late question. With this 14 I have no problems with BT. I think you told me before that it was due to a issue of drivers on the new roms. Does the 18 take care of this issue?

Bluetooth Issues & LineageOS Versions?

...With this 14 I have no problems with BT...Does the 18 take care of this issue?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Search that 18.1 thread or ask in it: [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][11] LineageOS 18.1 for Samsung Galaxy S5 (klte*)

My Galaxy S5 G900M LineageOS 17.1 klte build 2021-02-28 @ the present does not have any Bluetooth issue but that varies for some users as you can read in [OFFICIAL] LineageOS 17.1 for Galaxy S5 klte + Variants > Known Bugs chapter.

I suspect that it's related to the build date & hardware revision of the S5 itself but users never include enough data points to troubleshoot the issues.

According to DevCheck > System: Manufacturing date August 25, 2015 for my S5 G900M.

And that's with the most recent S5 Odin Flashable Modem & Bootloader for my device.

I was told it was due to Samsung not releasing drivers. In my case it may be due to the device (car BT) which was second generation BT from 2005 . Many individuals have the problem, but my problem only occurs with this sole device. 14.1 works flawlessly but the 15,16,17 that I have tried all drop signal continuously.

A REALLY bizzare problem just popped up. I'd transferred a coupla photos to my Win7 desktop via bluetooth and all was well.
Tried it later on and the phone complains that it can't transfer an unknown file type. Huh?!?
I can transfer any other file, I can transfer a photo from another S5, but I can't transfer from THIS phone to ANY PC, via bluetooth. Un-paired phone and re-paired, no joy. Restarted phone, no joy.
Ideas?
Anyone?
**************** UPdate ************
Now it seems that ANY file going OR coming into the phone is 'unknown send failed"!
