[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] RukusX7:
I've been studying the manual for the cirrus logic soundcard in the s7. It appears that some of the output level values and paths may need to be adjusted or changed.I noticed a huge difference between playing music on Spotify and my GPS volume. Not sure if this bug you experienced was affecting me at that time... But some things are loud, other things quiet. I listen through my aux port in my car and I have to crank my stereo to get any volume. Speaker is very quiet too.

So far I've only tested some different values for mic inputs with some good results. I hear that some amazing work has been done on oreo crdroid. I've yet to compare my work to it. The worst so far is the speakerphone gives the caller an echo of their voice. My guess is the top mic should listen on speakerphone but the bottom is listening and its too close to the speaker. I'm trying things out.

When I get more time I'll look into this more. In contrast to this, the camera doesn't even bother me.

Edit: I've compiled tinymix into my ROM. It allows you to adjust your inputs and outputs on the go as needed. Unfortunately this works globally. So if you increase the main-mic this way to increase your speakerphone-mic, it also increase the mic for regular calls. Currently this is how the mixer_paths_0.XML is configured. The global value for the main-mic is boosted. The main-mic should be adjusted individually for each path that makes use of the main-mic. That way you get expected mic gain on each function.

That being said tinymix is still useful on a per requirement basis. Adjust as you see fit on the go.

Device specific news in March 1 build:

Time Zone resetting to GMT on some providers should be fixed (this is not verified yet)

LineageOS should be flashable on Korean models of Galaxy S7 (SM-G930K/L/S)

P.S. How to fix non-working NFC is described here.

P.P.S. The proposed fix for fingerprint battery drain caused other issues (it was not merged).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] meatfest1974:
Same. But what also happens to me is any calls, whether inbound or outbound, reverts to a defaulted time zone that it's five hours ahead. Toggling airplane mode on and off resolves the issue.

Also Android / Google Pay won't work. I did get it to work on the January security patch level.

Either than that, it's really a solid ROM. Totally worth the upgrade from my S5.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] SamwiseLowry:
Hi all, and thanks a lot to the devs. I appreciate it a lot to have a great alternative to the bloated stock stuff, for free and working mostly great!

I have the latest nightly installed (14.1-20180301-NIGHTLY-herolte) on my G930F, and I have noticed some issues I'd like to share with you. Much of it probably goes into the same direction as some other posts here, but here we go:

Autorotate: Works under certain conditions. When I open WhatsApp normally, it rotates just fine. When I open it by tapping the notification, it won't rotate and stays in portrait mode. The Signal app doesn't rotate at all, only portrait mode. My Ghostery browser does not rotate at all, only portrait possible. As far as I have seen, I found two ways to make everything rotate into landscape.

1. Have an app opened that rotates (like YouTube) - then everything also autorotates.

2. Turn on adaptive brightness - everything autorotates. I can even turn off adaptive brightness, and everything will work until I lock the screen. After unlocking, the issues are back.

Speaker issues:

The phone app works as intended. However, WhatsApp doesn't. When playing a voice message and covering the proximity sensors, audio continues to play over the bottom speaker, while it simultaneously plays over the top phone speaker. If I change the volume, both are affected. When calling over WhatsApp, I can't turn off the speakerphone. I have tried multiple times to switch on and off, to no effect. The WhatsApp calls stay on speakerphone, and just like with the voice message, volume adjusting affects both speakers.

The same effect is to be observed with my music player app (Shuttle). Music plays from both speakers when played without headphones, and when I plug in headphones, the bottom speaker is muted, but not the top phone speaker. When I then remove the headphones, the bottom speaker is back, but significantly lower in volume, and only a restart gets it back to normal.

Sorry for the long post, but I have tried to describe the issues as precisely as I can at this time.

Are there solutions? The audio issue is worse than the autorotate thing, since I can't listen to incoming voice messages in public. Also, calls in WhatsApp are really frustrating, since the other side always has to deal with hearing their own voice back, since the speaker is located directly next to the bottom microphone. I suppose turning on the speaker is supposed to switch to the upper mic, but it doesn't here.

Thank you again!

The rotation bug was rejected... Unable to reproduce apparently.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Freaks7:
Ok, after switching back to fixed display brightnes I was surprised that autorotate was working. Thinking too good to be true I then did a hard restart and to no surprised it wasn't working anymore. I tried a couple of toggles with no luck. Then decided to do soft restart, after that screen was still fixed and after switching it to auto brightness then rotating and then back to fixed brightness my display is now rotating with fixed brightness. And my phone feels so sexy now :p

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] We7dy:
By turning on the automatic brightness, the rotation works perfectly, but by turning off this option, it works randomly.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Freaks7:
Exactly, after an hour of sleep it doesn't work anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] gantzzz:
So weird to read this. Apparently on some devices the sensors already works. We need to nail down why generally not working fingerprint sensor works on some very specific phone models. This could help the Devs fix it for all of the devices. Which variant you have ?

It does. Check jesecs ressurrection remix thread for s7 edge

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Shayded:
W8 is now having working fingerprint on the 21 build, but if the phone is locked for more than 2-3 minutes you have to manually enter the pin or pattern. If only locked for a minute then it works fine

Just chill! Fingerprint reader does not work 100%. At least not on the Jan 20th build that's for sure.

I believe you it works for you, but that doesn't mean it works 100% for everyone. I own the international G930F S7, installed jan 20th on a completely clean install (meaning I wiped EVERY partition with TWRP, copied the rom and flashed, then flashed dynamic gapps), and I cannot even set up fingerprint reader.

UPDATE: Ok guess what, I DIRTY flashed today's (jan 22) build and fingerprint reader works for me too now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] H3bus:
Fingerprint reader partially work. Like its been reported on RR, after some wake ups it does not work.

So far I'm really impressed with the stability and battery life of this ROM. Keep up the good work!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] thelkab:
I installed LOS one month ago. I have installed all the updates via the Lineage OS updater.

I am running 01.03.2018 update now.

SPEAKER ISSUE: - I have the same issue as the ones described above. When calling via WhatsApp or Signal the sound comes from the bottom speaker. If i plug in headphones it works fine. But after I unplug them the overall sound is very low (like 30%) and has an impact on notifications, ringtone, music. The solution was to restart the phone, but I found another solution on the forum: make a phone call and it comes back to the normal volume.

This is a very big issue, if you cannot use the phone for the main function - making phone calls - then it is not usable. If I cannot fix this issue I will have to go back to stock. Everybody has this issue? Do you know any fix?

NFC ISSUE: NFC works only after restart. You can turn it off, but then you cannot turn it on again.

BATTERY: I replaced my battery one week before installing LOS. With stock I was getting over 30 hours of normal use. After installing LOS I get between 12 - 24 hours of battery life of normal use without location services, Bluetooth, NFC, no music, no social media.

Other issues: random restarts when answering a signal phone call, not receiveing notifications from all apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] SamwiseLowry:
That's really a bummer.

But the speaker issues are actually worse. I really hope it can and will be solved, or I have to go back to stock and root or something. Nothing left but wait a little more, I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] furrymonster:
Hi thelkab,

I just wanted to clarify: do the random restarts happen when you pick up any Signal phone call, or only when you turn on your video for the call?

I'm still having the issue I described earlier and wanted to see if we're looking at the same problem.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] thelkab:
Hi,

The random restarts happen when I pick up any Signal phone call. Let's say once in 6-7 times. I was not aware of the restart when turning on the video call, but I tested today and it happens as well.

Everybody has the SPEAKER issue? Or it only happens to some people? If not everybody has it maybe a fresh install would solve it. Some answers would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm still experiencing issue with the SIM card detection on last builds (February to 01 March) and still under the impression that I'm the only one ! I tried to wipe Data and cache, different builds but without success. Others ROM seem to work (like Xperience).

I'm trying to find how my configuration could be different than yours, do someone use an microSD card as internal storage here ? (without the use of things like Magisk)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] machhho:
nice Rom , but the battery drains very fast
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] furrymonster:
I tried picking up Signal phone calls 20 times and was unable to replicate the issue you describe. Not sure why. If you can provide any extra info I can try to elicit the same behaviour...

In case any of the devs have a chance to look into this, here is a logcat for the video calling issue with Signal: https://vomitb.in/HqFRIuMrj2

I am happy to try and provide more info if needed. Thank you so much for all your work.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] thelkab:
I am not sure what else can I tell you in order to be able to replicate the issue. I was using headphones most of the times when I tried to pickup a Signal phone call. It happened 2-3 times yesterday.

I have installed the 08.03 update.

The speaker issue when using whattsapp/ signal calls seems to be fixed. Also, after unplugging the headphones the overall volume stays normal. That is great!

Another issue which seems to be fixed is the NFC. :)

One issue which still seems to be there is the restart when turning on camera in a Signal call.

I will let you know if I find any other issues.

I am very happy with the last update. It fixed two major issues.

I want to thank everybody who helped fixing those issues! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] We7dy:
Great! The rotation issue has been fixed?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] thelkab:
I didn't have that issue. I always had the auto brightness on ( I read that this makes the rotation to work).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] HowToSayHello:
First of all you can force the screen to 1080p (as made on stock by default)

For that you can follow this guide https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/mod-force-nexus-6p-to-scale-to-1080p-t3298620

I'm also using Xposed Framework with Amplify and Smart Network and got a pretty neat 2 days with a normal use (as sometimes texting, calling, going on the web)

I even use Battery charge limit to stop the charge at 80% !
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Blato:
The battery drains fast with registered fingerprints. Remove them and you gain quite a lot. Also I doubt there is much of an effect on the battery life when downsizing the resolution.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] HowToSayHello:
I thought there already was a fix for the fingerprint issue (quite a long time ago) but I can see that the problem resurfaced last month. Nonetheless with the setup I mentioned above I don't pay the cost of this drain at all !

About downsizing, there's a difference between making calculation for a 1440p screen rather than a 1080p and that's why Samsung updated their stock ROMs to set a natural 1080p downsizing on every devices and upsizing to 1440p only on case of 4k video playbacks or so (https://www.androidauthority.com/nougat-beta-galaxy-s7-1080p-731339/)

Just to reference this fingerprint issue on this thread : https://jira.lineageos.org/projects/BUGBASH/issues/BUGBASH-1422?filter=allopenissues

There's a patch proposed by Christian Abegg here https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/207637/ with a downside explained in the issue's comments.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Blato:
I've seen here that they have found a solution for the fingerprint sensor problem. crDroid is based on los. Can someone look at their fix?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] chrisrevoltes:
But its unknown, if they found their own solution or used Christians.

But I would give Christians solution an try. In my opinion if it really "extends the standby time by a factor of about 2-3x", its worth the 10% chance of not working.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] HowToSayHello:
I had a look at his changelog but it only says Fingerprint sensor doesnt look for fingerprint while screen is off anymore(Moar battery and it was unreliable)

Wouldn't that mean a complete shutdown of the fingerprint sensor when the screen's off ? Can't find his repo (https://github.com/turbolukex5/turbolukex5.github.io)...

I've installed LineageOS on my G930F, among magisk 16 and opengapps. I've enabled magisk hide, but it seems like safetynet checks are failing with a cts profile mismatch.

Any idea about why could it be happening? I need it in order to get the samsung gear app to work, otherwise it refuses to launch. I've tried to follow a tutorial in here that I can't link because I can't share links, however root manager doesn't let me change the permissions of the selinux files.

Hello experts

Unfortunalety with the error code: "The package conflicts with an existing package with the same name"

Also I tried some APPS lile "Always On AMOLED" but it drains to much battery power...

Anyone an idea ?

Because the posts in question ended in a heated debate if the dev was capable of fixing the issues, followed with claims the complaining part didn't provide any useful info to helping the dev solve the issue at hand.

This led to the moderators cleaning up the thread.

Ok, everything is OK. Thanks for the info.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] chrisrevoltes:
You have to know, that some issues only appear on some devices. On others not! That makes troubleshooting more complicated.

So as far as I remember:

- Batterydrain in standby caused by the fingerprintsensor

-> fingerprint sensor works fine

-> drain is less enough to use it

-> workaround: delete the fingerprints

-> there is an unmerged bugfix

- Autorotation was buggy for some users

-> worked only with auto brightness proper

- video calls in Signal leading to freeze

- calls lead to problems for one user

...

As I mentioned before, the camera isn't that good as in stock. But this won't be in any other non-touthwiz better. But its still good enough! I use it every day for pictures or video recording.

And as I remember, connecting BT with Car is fixed now. So are other issues.

If you want details, unfortunately you have to read the past 50 or so pages.

I would recommend to test it on your own!

Just make a backup, try it for yourself and if you doesn't like it, go back to stock or to another ROM.
