Anonymous, 14 Jun 2024There should be a setting for this. Settings>Connections... moreI had a similar problem with my S5, especially when 5G became available. The following worked for me, but after trying these and if you still have a problem, you might sit down with your network carrier to review all connection aspects. First try these: Go to Settings, More Networks, Mobile Networks, Network Mode and make sure LTE/CDMA is selected. Then backup to Settings, and go to Advanced Calling, then Advanced Calling (again) and make sure Advanced Calling is turned ON, then select HD Voice only (do not select HD Voice and Video Calling). I would reboot after these changes. After Reboot, go back to Settings, About Phone, Status, and make sure Network shows your carrier, Moble Type should show LTE, and Mobile Network State should show "Connected". You should be on 4G instead of 3G (as shown at the top of your home screen). If still no luck, you will probably need to talk to your carrier (or test another S5 phone with your SIM card inserted in it). Hop this helps!

    draff, 07 Apr 2024I have installed Lineage 18.1 with MIndTheGapps 11 (32 bit)... morenah i tried its no lag after 1-2 month become less lagging because downloaded social..
    but one BEST!! named cyanogenmod 14.1 (android 7.1)
    after 3-4 month without erase date. its already downloaded and still smooth!! and fast but when hot its slower its okay and watch tik tok slow to open 30 sec and finished no lag.
    i love OLED but LCD that okay i wish iphone 11 had OLED anyway its okay and we will see i'll buy iPhone 17-19 or iPhone 20 soon that why my iPhone 11 over 4 year ago almost 5 year.. still smooth and still support iOS.. gaming highend like heavy CODM or Genshim Impact i tried too its no lag while maxed graphics and battery just normal.. if getting stopping iOS and apps.. or getting slower? then ill buy it xd

    anyway Samsung S5 mod is best cyanogenmod..
    cyanogenmod made by LineageOS

                SamsungLove, 16 Jun 2023very good phojne even now, just bttery life is horrible as ... moreOn my S5 i got around the battery problem by buying the extended battery and case "the battery is crap, so toss it), i bought a LightningCell battery, which "hangs on like relatives looking for a money handout" down to 1% and can still pop off screenshots at that "but doesn`t last a full day", i then added an Oppo A52 battery and and old laptop battery which is the same as a Nintendo Switch - battery-HAC-003 and it runs for 15~18hrs on youtube in full screen and brightness. Now all i need to do is 1: get around making it work on VoLTE and 2: upgrade the OS to at least Android 9 "the HungryJacks app Wants 9 to run". Then i`ll keep it till 4G in Australia ends in 2030..

I had a Galaxy ACE before that and upgraded the firmware to and S2 and worked like a charm as well. The S5 still has more combined features including Better PPI than most of Samsung newer Flagships which are all missing one thing or another between models. Being a 4G phone "Should have seen it through till 2030 in Australia, But because of the industries "Half-Wit ideas to Force you to buy a New Phone". Now we have VoLTE i have to upgrade before the 1st September, i Have to Shop through more models than you can poke a stick at for a model with most "because ALL of the features" are not on newer models. Headphone sockets, Dual Video Call. PPI`s are Crappy and even 4k is missing between models. As usual, "IF it is too good, take it of the market" and sell you whatever you will settle for.. As for your Comment of "my mom owning this, and I used her phone a lot back then", my 36y/o Son calls mine a SOC/POS, But Still uses it every time he gets in my car, because the reception is better than his S21.. lmao

Give it a try and let me know what you think of it
