Recently my S5 has been acting real laggy so I restarted it. During boot it stayed stuck on the T-Mobile logo/screen. I reflashed root and it started fine. I noticed the superSU bookmark was gray and it was no longer installed. So I downloaded it again and did the binary update it needed. After restarting it everything happened all over again. Had to reflash. Any advice or ideas appreciated.

I've always had that option enabled. I think I might have deeper issues with this phone. It was fine for about 2 months then this issue popped up.

If you are in that situation I would recommend doing a FULL WIPE+FACTORY DATA RESET as per #2.3, #2.4 and #2.5 of S5 Lollipop Update Problems - Dummies Guide. Check it out and then download the stock firmware and re-flash it to your phone as per #1.11 of 42 Galaxy S5 models - Dummies Guide. Check it out again and the re-root and load your data, etc; back on.

Was hoping to avoid that but looks like it might be my final option. Thanks for all your help. I'm gonna swap out my sd card for a bigger capacity. How do I go about transferring from one sd to the other? Can I just copy to my pc then put on the new sim? I might as well start clean from scratch.

I just copy from old SD card to PC then format the new SD card in the phone and then copy my files to it.
