Some ROM suggestions and information

Hello,

I recently updated my Superman Rom to v.2 (Nougat). I'm facing one problem of Lock Screen:

1. Fingerprint scanner on start screen does not work, screen unlocks with swipe even if fingerprint is selected in lock screen option. (maybe it has to do with removal of asking for password after each reboot.), because of which, anybody can access the phone with just a swipe.

Please confirm if the same issue is being faced with other users too... If so, can you please provide fix for this?

2. This is a suggestion, in your ROM control app, there is option of "Reboot view visibility" on left side of the notification panel.

Can you please make it optional to put it on right hand side too?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Give me a recovery log and I can tell more

1. You can't just swipe if you have fingerprint enabled. Since you always need a password with fingerprint as well. And I can't confirm this

2. I decided to move it to the left because of 1 single reason:

My right side is already full with: vibration, powersaving, signal, 4g, battery, percentage and clock. If we add more mods there, over the half of the statusbar would be covered with it

The instalation v 2.0 is succesfull but at the end of the instalation i get the message unmount of /data failed (-1) device or resource busy.

Am i doing something wrong?

Also if i want to install gsam root companion app he says that he cant install it as a system app.

That just means data is already unmounted (what isn't a problem)

A problem would be if your data is encrypted and installer can't access data

Thanks for your reply. :good::good:

Regarding 1st scenario, i'm still having issue at lock screen, it is still unlocking without fingerprint.

Is there any way i can log the details and send to you for verifying...?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Exactly :)

If you change the lockscreen to pin or password does this change anything?

Hi guys, I'm about to unlock my S7 Edge and install this rom. I know I'll trigger knox counter and I'll be unable to use Samsung Pay. I'm not worried since I use my own bank app, the only thing I'm confused is about which root type I should select and how to hide it. My bank app stops NFC payments if root is detected. I'm a bit lost with SuperSU, Phh rooot and Magisk. Back in my flashcoholic days with OPO only SuperSu existed.

Which root method do you guys recommend me and how to hide it?

downloadable files verification

Can some one verify that all of the downloadable files on the OP are the correct ones?

Can't seem to get it working, the steps I follow, are as following.

-> flash to stock rom from sammobile

-> OEM unlock

-> flash latest TWRP

-> in TWRP, format data

->install latest BL and CP from OP

-> flash rom -> Clean install

result is a non booting superman rom.. What can I do? I have been trying for DAYS now...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
There are several reasons:

1. Encryption is still enabled

2. BL/CP was not successfull

3. You mixed your settings about G930F or G935F model

I noticed a few things in aroma log when it was installing

failure to boot.img extracting ramdisk failure, aborting, is this something that's causing the problem?

Right at this point I am wondering why snapchat doesn't want to log me in. There's no xposed or snapprefs on my phone, exposed uninstaller was flashed. Does this come familliar? There has to be a workaround without having to use bluestacks right?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Someone said that it even checks for root now
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] grave-diggers:
Okay, here's the solution. If you find yourself having trouble logging in in to snapchat on a rooted device without xposed framework installed. Make sure to search for xposed using root explorer, delete all system files manually.. For some reason xposed uninstaller did not completely remove every xposed file in my phone.

is there a chance it could brick the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
You said you managed to get into download mode, so I assume you flashed full stock rom than and the same issue still happens even on full stock rom

If that's the case your phone maybe has an hardware issue, as such things doesn't happen on stock (and also not on custom) roms.

Yes you can post this questions here but don't expect anyone to answer. Most people (including me) are not running an AOSP rom so I'm sorry but you will have to find answers in those forums
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
Yeah I restored to stock then tried to apply superman v2.1 again (i cant download v2.2 as my monthly downloads are capped for the moment) I managed to get through the aroma install and it crashed during the android setup where you input the wireless settings and google account info etc. It didn't even start looping, just crashed and now isn't responding to anything. I'll continue trying today and update you on how it goes.

would you suggest taking it into the shop to get tested if i dont have any luck?

EDIT: i swear to god messaging you has some sort of magical power, I tried for hours without luck and then eventually came to ask you, now it starts working straight away, has happened twice now haha. im going to stay on stock today for a couple of days to see if i have any issues then upgrade to v2.2.

honestly thank you so much for your support here and with the maintenance of this rom, easily the best rom for s7 currently. I wish I could donate but alas, i am a poor student :(. <3
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Nothing to thank, I'm always here to help and assist :)

You don't have to donate anything, instead it's always cool if you hit thanks on my posts or if you rate my threads that also helps me a lot and cost you nothing :)

How long should I give this. I'm now at about 30 minutes on the flashing Samsung logo with the blue light solid on. It's vibrated a few times, but seems to be doing nothing except getting hot. How long should I give it?

---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 AM ----------

45 Minutes and I tried to reboot. Back on the Samsung logo. No idea how to get into recovery to do a factory reset to see if that helps, as it just keeps coming back to this.

Looks like I'm doing a trip back to friggin stock.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] AzzyC:
This happened to me also and other people are saying it occurred due to the init.d tweaks that we had a selection of during the process of the ROM. I don't know if this is the actual source of the problem but hopefully it is found and solved.

I did update to 2.2 but after this problem happened and didn't let me boot I went into recovery and downgraded to the secure 1.19.1 version. Try holding the Power, Home and Vol Down and do this two times and hopefully on the third time it should let you into recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
I was having problems on 2.1 with crashes every 5-10 mins and then getting stuck in a pretty bad boot loop. Have finally gotten through those problems and upgraded to 2.2 though im still experiencing the 5-10 min crashes. I was looking into them before I got stuck in the boot loops and Tkkg mentioned it was due to the init.d. I came to post (again) and see if i could get an answer and saw these posts. I only had 1 init.d tweak activated so I'm about to do a clean install without any init.d tweaks to see if it fixes it. will update to let you know.

---------- Post added at 03:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 AM ----------

I clean installed without any init.d tweaks and the crashes still happen. I crashed twice, the first time just rebooted into the OS, the second one has put me back into the unresponsive black screen state again. May be awhile before I can get back into download or recovery mode again based off my previous experience over the last few days.

Hope this helps find the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Your issue sounds like you didn't format your phone properly.

Means you should do; wipe, format datat (keyboard will pop up), type yes, reboot recovery and flash the rom again.

Hopefully this helps!

Otherwise flash magisk uninstaller. Since xposed is stored under magisk it won't get deleted on rom update and ends in a never ending bootloop!

So wipe and magiskuninstaller will do it

Damn man I still can't seem to figure out what the heck goes wrong with your installation.

After the end of the aroma installation, can you hit the save log button and send me the logfile?

Thank you!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
No worries, I just woke up from a nap and got back into recovery mode, about to clean install v2.2 again and will send through the log once it's completed.

It seems like I need to let my battery fully drain before I'm able to get back into recovery or download mode.

Not sure if it's related or not but I haven't noted it here yet - since v2.0 my external SD card has been read as corrupted in android though in recovery mode I have access to it and it works fine. I've tried reformatting it in android but it doesn't seem to do anything as android still reads it as corrupted afterwards but when in recovery mode all my files are still there and haven't been touched.

Will post again in a bit once the installation is complete. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
here's my log, i hope i did it correctly. After install it booted me directly into the android setup. I input my info then booted into recovery and copied the log file.

http://pastebin.com/BjED5RBa

EDIT: Also, this install seems to be slightly more stable than my last few attempts. it's getting a lot more uptime, has only crashed 2 or 3 times instead of consistently every 5 - 15 minutes. once when i opened magisk and once or twice just opening explorer apps + gmail.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Sadly that's not the log I'm looking for. After the aroma installation you will be prompted to safe logs or exit aroma installer. At this point you need to save to log INSIDE the aroma installer before exiting it.

Thanks anyway for every testing you do!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
hm, i've never had that option before. I was watching the install and it always hits 100% says it just extracted the BL then boots straight into the OS.

edit: going to try manually updating bootloader + modem.

---------- Post added at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

edit 2: manually updating bootloader + modem got me through the install to the part where i can select save log. saved the log then the install froze. have rebooted and am waiting to boot into android.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
edit 3: okay so manually updating the modem and bootloader seems to make it a lot more stable. I've only had 1 reboot since the clean install completed when signing into facebook messenger. i dont know if the log file from the install saved because the install froze as soon as i hit save log, but it booted up fine and havent had problems since. where would the log file from the install be located? it doesnt seem to be in /data/media/0 like the TWRP log was.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
If you have an external i would be on external_sd/superman.log and if you have an internal only than on /sdcard/superman.log or something like this.

Still one reboot is too much, there should be 0 reboots!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] thenashy:
You're 100% correct. I missed what seems a very important step! All up an running now, as always, love your work!

I'm also getting CTS Profile Mismatch in Magisk when checking SafetyNet. It's not a massive deal to me, but I'm pretty keen to know how to fix it, if I can. If I can't, I don't really care, I don't use Android Pay, but I assume i nthe future, this may become more of an issue as other apps do checks.

NVM. USB Debugging was on. It's now passing.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
Well than I'm very happy everything works as expected!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] m00fin:
yeah not sure why pressing the save log button at the end of the install yesterday made it crash. i clean installed again this morning and everything went smooth. the issue ended up being trying to update the modem and bootloader through the aroma install. I have a SM-G930F so it should of worked but it would cause the install to crash as soon as it extracted the bootloader in the aroma install. manually updating bootloader and modem then ignoring them during aroma install got me through the entire install and back into TWRP without any issues, and the first boot went smoothly, completely forgot to save the log file though ahaha.

havent had any crashes since!

the only problems I've found so far are my external SD is extremely buggy in both windows + the phone, i'm unable to reformat in twrp, android or windows and it crashes windows explorer so I think it may be an issue with the card instead of the ROM - though if you have any ideas about that it would be very helpful. the other issue ive found is that the uptime counter in the notification panel is incorrect. it adds 1 minute to the counter every 15 - 20 minutes. at the moment it says i have 12 minutes uptime even though my phone has been on for about 2 and a half hours now.

hope im not being annoying with all my posts! again, I really appreciate all the feedback.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Tkkg1994:
No you are not annoying!

The timer only adds active minutes when device isn't in the deepsleep state means it counts mostly only during screen on time

The only issue I'm having, and it's only from time to time, and may not even be the ROM. Spotify over BT sometimes does not send the track details to my car. The music still plays, and I can still skip, pause etc. but it won't send the details. Then randomly, it will.

Do you think you could include arter97's YouTube AdAway apk and installer zip in the aroma installer of your next update? This could be something to consider as you already include AdAway in the Aroma Installer but sadly this can't cover YouTube anymore.
