find Find all $m$ such $2^m+1|5^m$2^m+1\mid5^m-1$

The problem comes from a problem I encountered when I wrote the article

Find all postivepositive integer $m$ such $$2^{m}+1|5^m-1$$$$2^{m}+1\mid5^m-1$$ it seem there no solution. I think it might be necessary to use quadratic reciprocity knowledge to solve this problem. If $m$ is odd then $2^m+1$ is divisible by 3 but $5^m-1$ is not. so $m$ be even, take $m=2n$, then $$4^n+1|25^n-1.$$$$4^n+1\mid25^n-1.$$ if $n$ is odd,then $4^n+1$ is divisible by $5$, but $25^n-1$ is not so $n$ is even,take $n=2p$, we have $$16^p+1|625^p-1.$$$$16^p+1\mid625^p-1.$$
