Had a thought so I will post my idea for you guys here to do. The 935U is the same as ours except we can use two sims. So that means the rom should be all english. I think the only thing that differs is our build.prop and default.prop stating dual sim or single sim.

If that is true couldn't I just use the G935U Int rom with the HKernel and build.prop fixes for dual sim.?

Your thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] travis82:
Is this good?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sosjadd:
Theory is sound. Guess all that needs to be done is to grab the AP file, load it on the phone, kitchen it, extract it, load the current build/default prop and kernel. I'll download the AP and test it out.

Question here I have been looking around and is our device SM-G9350 the only s7 snapdragon with an unlocked bootloader so far? Man that sucks for the people droping $$$$ in the states lol damn. They should of stayed away from carrier branded phones. Force the companys to change how they hand out mobiles.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] KiraYamatoSD:
Only Samsung Snapdragon devices sold in Hong Kong/China can get their bootloader unlocked. The unlocked devices sold in the States have their devices carrier unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] davecotefilm:
Yeah man, the usa folks are working with root via an engineering bootloader, the only way they can root but side effects are a hot and buggy device. I agree, carriers suck. I made a point of ordering ours from HK even though I'm in Canada :)

Was able to load the 935U AP file on the phone via Odin.

Goes directly into recovery. Loaded twrp-3.0.2-0-hero2qltechn.img.tar via Odin, flashed any kernel I can find. Beta 8 from travis82 for example.

Reboot the phone, installs the apps, gets to the configuration screen just fine. But will restart itself automatically after some time.

Tried swapping default.prop from one of the SM-G9350 roms, it didnt like that at all lol.

Im sure the auto initiated reboot is something simple. It doesnt crash, just shows the shutdown animation and reboots. :)

Also, seems like there is a fix for the video playback after root. I remember someone asking about videos not playing correctly: https://pan.baidu.com/s/1pLNEiYf
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] travis82:
If the video fix works throw it on gdrive or afh.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] massimoce:
The fix works perfectly! Great! Now we need only a fix for the the selfie mode and camera is ok! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sosjadd:
Video playback fix, flash in TWRP or Chainfire https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzGWl9ZjrchbaDYyT1BrX0JKSmc

Feel free to rehost it on AFH if anyone wants to and yes, thats the original spelling of the file. [MENTION=5858137]davecotefilm[/MENTION] here is something good for page 1. Should help everyone with video issues. For selfies, if anyone is really adamant on using the stock app, use the timer function in the meantime. I think its a 3 second delay?

Regarding the 935U rom on a G9350 -- it needs some adjustments and love from someone smarter than myself.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzGWl9ZjrchbSkJzUUdqTVQ2Rk0 - This is not stable, please do not download this unless you plan on trying to fix it. No APN's available, of course no dual sim, gracefully reboots continually (logcat would help here). I have de-odexed, de-knoxed (full bloat) and added Travis's kernel if anyone wants to work on it. Some work on the sim, apn availability, csc, default.prop would probably be all it needs.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] travis82:
default.prop needs editing. I need to build a kernel for heroqlte or add the make files to my samsung sources. build.prop needs another line for dual sim to go so does default.prop.

So default and build prop needs these lines for dual sim:

rild.libpath=/system/lib64/libsec-ril.so

rild.libpath2=/system/lib64/libsec-ril-dsds.so

to fix up wifi default.prop needs this:

# WiFi fix

ro.config.dmverity=false

ro.config.tima=0

ro.config.knox=0

ro.config.rkp=false

ro.config.kap_default_on=false

I'll snag the zip and put it on afh, than I can include it in my roms from now on. Thank you

Give this kernel hell, I want you to try and crash it seriously. Stress it out best you can, I want to know how hot the phone gets when you are giving it hell.

PS I am averagely getting 148+ antutu scores so maybe on these roms like aurora 9 you can possibly break or meet 160k.

that kernel is not for GraceUX
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] travis82:
Been testing it lately and battery lasts a very long time. Phone runs cooler. Beta tester seems to agree with me. Second why are you using aurora rom all them except v9 is trash and buggy and makes you guys complain to me about kernel stuff when its rom stuff.

I will put out another GraceUX kernel when samsung gives us nougat in a month. Otherwise stay away from that ****ty aurora 11.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] davecotefilm:
Aurora 9 is more elegant, stable and i like the extra settings. Stock bugs me. I'll probably like cm but so far Aurora 9 is my fav. I'll try your kernel again soon :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] xmanz:

I actually find v 11 stable as........ xposed does its stuff i cant say its ever buggy.....my view..:)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] mitsuji26:
Travis, is this compatible with the OCT rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sosjadd:
Some feedback on the Beta9 Kernel from testing it today from 12PM to 12AM.

The kernel works fine with the OCT rom.

Right off the bat, very efficient in battery life. I spent 4 hours on a VOIP call and 2+ hours on a video-conference call in Facebook messenger, which is not known for its battery friendliness. Phone has been active for the past 12 hours with browsing, email as well as the Bloomberg terminal + everything else. I dont use anything for the battery efficiency or wakelock control. Heck, I even use Google Live Earth wallpaper for kicks along with the Google launcher and Google assistant on a fully bloated ROM.

Amazingly even with all that going on, I got home at a bit past midnight with over 18% left on the battery. Just for reference, FB Messenger sucked over 2270+ mAh from the phone today. The fact that I was able to survive that long all day without needing a charge is kind of bonkers in my head. Not a 'screen on' test or anything, of that sort. Real haaaaaaard usage. Phone remains cool to the touch all the time. UI is snappy. Its really really efficient! Not sure how else to put it into words lol. I came from an Innos D6000 (dual battery, 6000mAh phone), I got that sort of feeling back again. Didnt have to even look at the battery guage.

I had to re-cache the thumbnails in gallery, but once finished they load up instantly. Real time is probably a better word. I cant scroll through thousands photos fast enough in thumbnail preview to lag it or see unloaded photos on the screen. I've been trying since yesterday....

There is no lag in gaming. Everything works fine. Phone remains a heck of a lot cooler to the touch than before.

I just changed my gov tonight to conservative after coming home. Feels exactly the same in regards to the UI, still snappy. Will test everything else with a conservative gov tomorrow in the same aspect, but so far overall, its perfect.

Regards

That sounds good, I get a similar experience with Aurora rom 2, around 18 hours medium use, 14 heavy use, and 36 hours normal day use. I'm sure hkernel is running well based on all the commits I see going on, really great to have another kernel option :) Not sure why it doesn't run as slik on the aurora rom, but once overclock is figured out I'll be switching to the hk rom if I need to :) Thank you for your testing comments, they are detailed and help a lot!

Changelog: https://github.com/travismills82/twrp_device_SM-G9350/commits/master

Short version:

Update kernel and dtb for recovery

update fstab

added modem as backup (so we can restore modems without odin)

fixed decryption (no messages yet)

Noticed now I can use compression without my phone getting so hot it wants to explode or freezing.

Enjoy,

Flashed through Odin without problem. Now backing up with compression. Phone is hot but CPU is never over 80C. Should not freeze until the end of the backup.

Edit: Backup with compression completed without freezing/crash
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] skrilin5:
I used original 3.12.3
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] skrilin5:
Just a small update. Kernel 8 + Xposed always gave me 80- 100K on antutu.

I suspected Xposed to impact antutu score. I tested without Xposed and gave me better score such as 130K

Antutu score never mattered too much to me anyway so i left it as is.

I don't know if it is related but Kernel 9 + Xposed is giving me a steady +140K.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sosjadd:
Dave since using beta9 and a few other test kernels Ive moved back to the HK rom. Works perfectly without any lag. Even more so, ive been running it in conservative gov the whole time and cant even detect a hint of lag.

Recently did one of those screen on tests, managed over 14 hours of SOT time. A lot of work seems to have gone into the latest kernel as well as the current kernel that travis is working on. I can tell you from experience its slick!

http://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/review/screen-time-t3330791/post69497231#post69497231

Seems that a lot of people dont understand much about the SD variant, just what they saw in youtube videos or hearsay. Giving this type of information should be good for knowledge and getting the correct information out there. Your also right, once OC is available, its the death of the enyxos clear cut and dry. Which is unexpected even by myself. I expected more granular control with 4 small 4 big over 2 small 2 big in regards to speeds and battery life. But my assumption was wrong. Somehow I have a feeling this is going to cause some serious 'debate' in regards to the S7 community of, did we all get it wrong?

Havent even touched my 935F in god knows how long. It just sits there collecting dust now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] KiraYamatoSD:
To get root with xposed on the OCT rom with beta9 kernel you need to flash "xposed-v86.1-sdk23-arm64-custom-build-by-wanam-20160904.zip"

Here is a Beta 10 Kernel preview on a Pixeled out HK ROM:

Interactive gov - https://youtu.be/Zijeq2sdFEw

It's butter smooth....

So smooth in fact, turning on the conservative gov and power-saving mode shows no decline in real world performance, just increased battery life. 14+ hours of Screen on Time (new S7E record of any SoC) with sync, wifi, cell data, phone calls, whats app, fbm, hangouts all running.

With everything on, that's enough for non stop movies on a direct flight from Tokyo to New York City with time to spare on a single charge. No wakelock control whatsoever.
