Sorry for the delay, Updated RR to Latest Android sources (like the LineageOS changelog) but no Security patches.

Comes with Magisk root incorporated

Find it here: Download

WARNING: The ROM bellow is UNTESTED!! Flash at your own risk (I didn't have time, could only test RR)

For my friends who want to keep in a decent android build, but want more speed and stability, I have a solution for you, LineageOS 13.0, download here: Download

This LineageOS 13.0 is updated to the latest Android 6.0.1 sources, Android 6.0.1_r81, and has March 2018 security patches, so no worries over vulnerabilities :) :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] aeolist:
I'm (still) using Kotzir's latest 14.1 build (not the one by Le Penguino) on my gti8730 which now has been in daily use since early 2013.

During the recent months, the set of installed apps stayed constant and no configurations were changed.

However, since about 1-2 months, the device frequently lags extremely. From the looks of it, the computing performance (CPU-bound operations) are just fine (when an app has finally loaded, works like a charm), however, I/O speeds seem to have gotten much slower over time, leading to apps' loading times or file system operations taking longer than before: More "Unresponsive: Wait/Close/Send feedback" screens for random apps, etc. Very annoying, and almost enough to disqualify the device from daily use.

While I can't rule out that a Play Services update or similar lead to the current situation, I'm wondering if these symptoms are typical for degrading flash memory chips and whether anybody else has noticed this kind of symptoms in their Galaxy Express too?
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] nunopenim:
Degrading chips can be the cause for that as for [MENTION=6575747]cd716[/MENTION] flash corruption. It has happened before. The main problem that you should notice too is that your battery empties quicker.

It could also be that your cache is getting full, and that is filling up the good chips (automatically managed by the memory controller, and now it needs to use the less good chips, which still work, but are slow.

A fix for that is a full factory reset, however that could just ruin another cycle of the memory. It happened to me before on this phone. But being honest, I changed ROM every 2-3 months, so it wasnt bit of an issue [emoji23]

Alright, I have a Samsung Galaxy Express (I8730) and thought I should get it a boost by upgrading from Android 4.1 to LineageOS 14.1 with Android 7.1.

WiFi works fine, so does making calls and sending/receiving SMS and everything else, but NO and absolutely NO data. That is quite a severe limitation as I cannot access the Internet in any other way than over WiFi. It's very frustrating because I belive that LineageOS 14.1 / Android 7.1 is very good. So...

I have tried wiping the cache and dalvik cache.

I have tried installing new basebands, several of them, or in fact all of them that are available. The one I'm using now is I8730XWANE1.

I have tried LTE as well as 3G and I have tried different bearers, e.g. HSPA etc.

I have tried restoring the defaults for the selected mobile network.

I have tried searching for mobile networks and choosing the one that I'm subscribed too.

No... Nothing has fixed the problem.

With LineageOS 14.1 I have never ever seen an icon above the strength indicator as I used to on Android 4.1, not even for a short while. It has never worked.

I'm in Sweden.

Anyone?

Best,

Mike

Go to about phone and click seven times to enable developers options. Then go to developers options and enable the advanced reboot menu. Click on power button and select soft reboot. After that the data should be enabled, if not, soft reboot one more time. This is not a fix, it's a workaround.:D

You will have to soft reboot every time the device turns off.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mike4242:
I tried it, but it doesn't solve the problem. Still no data.

Which distribution of Lineageos 14.1 is most stable? Kotzir or LePenguino? Which build?

On the other hand, I assume it's the baseband that matters. When it didnt' work I tried installing I8730XWANE1.zip, but that didn't solve the problem.

I cannot understand why. I've tried more or less all tricks that have been posted everywhere.

/Mike
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] cd716:
The last build without data issues is 20170522. Dirty flash that build and the data will be enabled. After that you can dirty flash the last one to get the most recent security patches and all that had been merged, but you have to soft reboot every time the device turns off.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mike4242:
It works!!! And I'm so impressed by LineageOS and Android 7.1.

So, the trick was to install the 20170522 release. Thanks for the help.!

Hello guys, i found an android O version called android go. It would be perfect on our galaxy express phones. New and light. Could please someone try go develop a working build for the gt-i8730? Running the latest version on lineage 14.1, data works. Thank you very much!
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
I hope someone can develop an android go rom for galaxy express too. May i know what is the lastest version of this rom with data working? Is there any issues like battery drain?
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
1) i just found out that u can transform any oreo in android go by flashing a zip, so u can also develop lineageos 15.

2) the latest version is 20170522. Flash this( dirty flash, no erasing data), reboot, let it finish update, than u can update. But whet u reboot, u have to turn it off, and then turn it on, then make soft reboot for make data work. But it's worth it
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
How is the battery life of the 2017 0522 build? I am currently usig cm13 as the battery life i used on lineage os 14.1 the last time is horrible

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
If u want long battery life, i don't think that you will like it so much, even if it got better since the first builds.

[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
I have the device like principal phone, but if u make a pretty stable build, i could test it. Thank U so much, i love you roms. I had Cm13, LOS14, and i'll certainly use LOS15.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
U can flash a zip to make it become Android Go, but u are right, it would be damn slow. I can't use it fast without overclocking, but these are still fantastic roms.

Flash stock firmware, then flash recovery and the reflash the lineageos
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
When will the Oreo build be finished

kotzir, may i know when will you finish the oreo build?
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
Android Go oreo build, or android One oreo build, 'cause my gt i8730 can run smoothly only slim6, in LOS14, i have to use SEfix, but battery dies in an hour, so i have to take my powerbank everywhere.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
Same issue here. Battery drain present in cm13 rom and los14 rom. Manages to last around 2 hours surfing the web from 100%.

Android Go Oreo build will be probably better as it is more optimized for lower ram devices and battery life should be better. Also, Google Assistant Go is available in Android Go Oreo build since the phone is only 1gb ram
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
When will you be finished with the Oreo build? Android Go will be probably good for our phone due to low ram. also, battery life could be improved
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] kotzir:
I did finished and [MENTION=6815926]Le Penguino[/MENTION] had it tested, but random reboots occur due to huge kernel rebase. Also camera does not work like on Ace 3. More work is needed unfortunately
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
Thanks for the work. Hope to see it soon with a better battery life. Also, is it based on Android Go?
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
Hey, Have u already started to build oreo? If not, what about building an android Pie build on GSI?
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
Or u could do an android one port from xiaomi, and don't do the RR build like always.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] nunopenim:
This is Oreo. As [MENTION=5344004]kotzir[/MENTION] explained, random reboots happen. It is related to the screen timeout, as soon as screen turns off, it does a random reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Androidlovinguser:
Understood. :) Just want to know when will the issue be fixed :( and Android Go seems cool. (With Assistant Go)
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] nunopenim:
Just a few sneak pics ;) We are working on it. It is uncertain, I sent the logs to [MENTION=5344004]kotzir[/MENTION] but sometimes while I started capturing it was too late and it didn't write to the log the cause of reboot. I am not even sure if my logs say **** :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
Yeah, but i mean, Kotzir, usually makes also a Resurrection Remix build. But it't to heavy. I wanna say than [MENTION=5344004]kotzir[/MENTION] could make an android one build and not do the rr.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] nunopenim:
This is android Go. Its as light as it can be [emoji23]
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
And, could u post the link from where download this build, also if it is buggy?
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] nunopenim:
Like I said, random reboots happen everytime you put the phone to sleep. Camera doesnt work, more stuff might not also work, it is dangerous to try yet. Consider it as a pre-alpha build. If alpha builds are buggy, imagine this one. A lot of kernel stuff still has to be enhanced before this works fine. All you can do for now is wait.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Leokolly06:
Ah, already based on android go? Thank u very much. But still wondering how would be android one on this device :D. Thanks for the reply.

Just curious, how's the progress on the rom. when will it arrive? Hope there are no problems with the wifi or data and battery life since Lineage OS 14.1 0522 is draining my battery at a rate of 1% per 1-2 minute.
[Samsung Galaxy Express GT-I8730 ROMs, Kernels, Rec] nunopenim:
Check your battery... How old is it? I changed my express battery 2 times, after 2 years each, they all started to swollen up and lose charge. Wifi as of now works fine. I dont have a sim with express size to test. Camera doesnt work yet.

About progress, you should ask kotzir. I only test stuff for him. I am busy with my own projects as of now, sorry for that.

Update

So, I just wanted to release a final update to this, and a official goodbye.

This device was what introduced me to the android world, so it will always have a special place in my heart. I was doing some cleanup on my PC and found out the source and build manifest of this, so I thought "Why not? It's not like you said it officially anyway, the device was just abandoned..." So this is a final update, just source synced with Lineage Repos, and newer security patches. With this, this ROM is discontinued (from my part). If any of you wants to keep building these, you can contact me for the manifests and all of that.

Changelog:

Updated with the latest Lineage Source
Updated the security patches to the most recent.

Download LineageOS 14.1 for GT-I8730

(Currently the build is on Mega, as something wrong with AFH is not letting me upload it there now, I will attempt later and upload it there).

If any of you is still using CM/LOS 13.0 and want a final update (although the project has been long ago discontinued) I can issue a final one too. Meanwhile, I will sort all the manifests I have around here and maybe make a build manual or something, if any of you wants to grab this project.

Hopefully see you all in new devices :) , may our Express GT-I8730 rest in peace.

Guys, completely out of topic, my I8730 is getting discharged quickly (not your problem [MENTION=5344004]kotzir[/MENTION] ) because the battery is 3 years old and already is a bit "fat" (not sure if the right word to describe the situation).

I used to start my day with 100% and end around 75-70% and now, even on stock ROM, I start the day at 100% and end up with 30%, sometimes having to charge during the day.

A new battery, original from Samsung (2000mAh, from factory) is around 15.5€ (14£ or US$ 17.15 - For the people who don't use euros).

My question: Do you guys have bough any aftermart battery brand that has more than 2000mAh, and if so, can you give me a review? Thank you :)
