Might seem like a rude question but have any idea on ETA?
Yes, sorry, have been busy, I'll post a build from Very late August as currently I have issues with building that I need help resolving. Mainly because LineageOS moved to new kernel configs for the regular S5 and so I need to modify one in with the Sport stuff...

Also I currently took my dad's S5 Sport back to stock so I cannot test myself at the moment. If anyone has a spare S5 Sport for testing, I'd gladly take it to finish this ROM and make it official :)

No need to apologise, I appreciate what you're doing and I understand it takes some time.

If you need another S5 Sport, you can get one here https://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=112560349301&fdback=1

I bought mine from the same seller, no issues. It even arrived days early!

Nice! My father is considering a new phone here so I'll probably hold out for a bit of time and see if that happens. If not, I'll try and scrape some extra money together for another phone... I have a few to many because of other projects, AKA Android 4 Lumia so I have like 7 windows phones :)

Anyway, I'll get that build posted tonight and update the OP

It would be great if you could add Substratum support. I just flashed a CM14 build and Substratum in Legacy Mode left me with a bootloop.

Link below may provide some info on how you can do this...

Sorry about that mate! I should update the OP to mention this for now. I'll try my best to add support but right now I need to make the trees build able again with a new kernel defconfig. The current build is good in everything else?

Don't know quite yet... I flashed cm13 for the time being from an older thread.. I'm a hardcore themer... Everything i have is themed. It's nice to have device info on my desktop with my channel branding.

To me the biggest issue is the white background though... and since this phone has a AMOLED screen well the benefits of a black theme to me are higher... 1 Eats less battery (turns pixels off), 2 Easier on the eyes, especially in dark places, 3 to me it just looks cool.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Nougat got better with the black interface but Oreo went to white so yeah...

I've decided to put up with default theme for a while... CM13 build from other thread was too buggy.

Camera and Flashlight from the pull down notification bar don't work. Got a Substratum Theme to function in Legacy Mode, but it had some bugs.

The built-in root is adb only. I have the file to enable apps you may want to share it. I'll upload it here sometime, also will give you a logcat..

Also I got ViPER Audio working with the IO fix.. Had to set SELinux Permissive to install the drivers.

And lastly, Changing the GPU Governor in Kernel Auduitor causes a reboot.

If anyone needs root, then you can find it on the Extras tab of the LineageOS downloads page. I'll try to work on the phone today but my knowledge is not very good still :(
