[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
And that's why it doesnt work.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Sintere:
How can I fix this? I have a week to fix thus or my gf is gonna kill me please help me dont want to die yet ;-;
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
Well, I don't think you will die just yet, no need for any drama or getting upset......

I'll suggest something better to do.

Flash a different rom as it's obvious there are some issues with RIL (radio and modem) effecting your A500 that can only be fixed by flashing complicated kernel fixes and lots of messing around.

Edit.

That process can be very complicated and very difficult for someone who doesn't really know what they are doing.

I'm not being mean to you, but I think you fall into that category, so me telling you mine works whilst yours doesn't isnt fixing your problem.

So I suggest you stop using lineage 14.1 and forget about it.

Its no longer supported, this thread is just about dead pretty much and the LOS 14.1 Dev's XDA account is suspended, he's not coming back.

So here are some of the best roms I've used on my A500FU and i can confirm these as working without major issues.

The "best" Lineage rom is Lineage OS 15.0 (Android 8.0 Oreo - works very smooth but no further development)

Lineage OS 15.1 (Android 8.1 Oreo - it's stable but is laggy at times and again, there are some issues with call audio and development has now stopped)

Resurrection remix 5.8.4 and 5.8.5 (Android 7.1.2 - very good Roms but have the same lineage OS issues with call audio. No current development)

The best Rom for the A500FU in my experience is the Hades Rom - Android 7.1.1.

This has the Samsung home experience version (not touchwiz) and has the S8 system UI with working phone and camera!

No separate gapps needed during installation.

Here's the direct link to the XDA thread.

https://xdaforums.com/samsung-a-series/development/rom-hadesrom-v3-0-t3723577

And there is on going development........V3 is the latest release.

Edit

Flash that rom today and no one will die, your girlfriend has a working phone that accepts and makes calls, and you'll have a modern and much fresher S8 looking system UI that really looks the part ?

Edit.

Some people might consider it disrespectful to promote other ROMs in this lineage thread, but let's face it, theres no more development on this rom.

It has some issues that have not been fixed and the developers account is suspended.

There's only now one active Samsung A5 2015 developer and only one active rom that's seeing any updates (Hades)

Edit

I learned a valuable lesson NOT to flash other roms on my wife's A500 (BTW I must explain my A500 was my wife's that I inherited when she upgraded to a Sony XPERIA)

I took it and told her I was updating it.

I had some issues getting lineage 14.1 working, but when she got it back she gave it straight back to me saying it was "s***" and wanted it put back right.

So I flashed the Hades rom I linked above.

She liked that and used it for several months until she brought a Sony Xperia L1 as an upgrade.

My advice is however well intentioned you or me are, leave the other halfs phone alone in future, learn from someone older and wiser my padawan.......it's really not worth the hassle, name calling and being put in the doghouse with no cuddles for days on end just to update a damn rom.....
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Sintere:
Haha thank you so much but can i falsh it with twrp 3.0.2? Or do i have to upgrade/update it?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
Upgrade your TWRP just to be safe.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Sintere:
How do I exactly upgrade it? Cuz the last time I tried to update it it went to boot loop. The method I used is to download the update img then I boot my phone torecovery install the img I checked the box with recovery then it went to boot loop
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
Download the TWRP to your external SD.

Reboot to TWRP and select flash IMG (not zip)

Select the recovery partition and swipe to confirm.

You need TWRP 3.1.1 at least or 3.2.1 I'm not sure of the latest version as I'm not using the A5 at the moment, but I'll check later once I've finished work.

Edit.

TWRP version 3.1.0 is what's currently on my A5.

Full instructions and tutorial here.

https://xdaforums.com/samsung-a-ser...overy-twrp-3-0-2-0-samsung-galaxy-a5-t3439233

BTW

I don't use the A5 anymore as a daily driver.

I have a new Nokia 3 on android 8.0.

The A5 is simply a spare device I use occasionally for work, hence why I could not check it until 6pm when I got home from work.

So Sorry for the delay in my reply.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Sintere:
Well a5 is my only phone hehe. So flashed the hades rom yesterday but the battery consumption was like damn like it was 50% at 1 am but when i woke up at 7 am it already drained
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
Ummmm.

I'm currently running that Hades rom.

Version 3.

I get well over 12 hours battery life, moderate use, checking a few emails or replying to text, and making and receiving occasional calls.

I'm not sure what else to suggest because I've found it to be the best rom in my opinion.

So apart from going back to stock, I don't know what to suggest.

There isn't any other ROMs I can suggest that offer the stability and fully working phone functions you need.

The later lineage (15.0 and 15.1) have no audio on calls.

Sorry.

I have noticed that I have no audio whatsoever on just any ROM exept RR 5.7.3 ... I have tried CM12, LineageOS 14.1, and RR 5.8 ... the RR 5.7.3 only has nonfunctional FM radio. Does anybody know whats up ?

A500FU here, your builds past 20180413 have broken gps, as in, programs that need gps think that phone does not have such capability.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
A500FU user here as well.

No such issues like reported above with GPS - although it does eventually connect but can take up to 30 seconds before a GPS signal is found.

(That's on builds AFTER 20180413)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] jplitza:
I am painfully aware and don't use my own builds since then, but I lack the time to investigate. I had a look at some changelogs, but didn't find anything in that period that's related to GPS at all.

That's weird.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Jorge v:
jplitzi friend this last conpilation that you created the lineageos-14.1-20180720 of the a5 is compatible with the a500m model .. comments is for daily use with respect to battery and there is no freezing and some of the screen comments please ..
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] bubba1601:
If you read the OP (first post) you will see this ROM is compatible with most A500XX variants.

I can't personally answer your questions as I have an A500FU but the idea here is YOU test the rom and YOU report your findings.

You DO NOT ask others to do it for you to make the decision for you if you should flash it or not, that's not how rom testing works.

Read and search the thread for other A500M user feedback, don't expect others to do this for you either.

hello

im using A500FXXU and before this using stock roms.

personally this is good rom for my phone with android 7.1.2 in it.. i already used for 3 months and overally are working fine with RIL-fix

this several bug that i get during i m using this rom :

echo during phone call , required to shut off display to fix freeze screen, a bit laggy but for me, it works perfectly for an old phone with 2GB ram.. hoping if you can help to fix echo which maybe of RIL script faulty..

OK, I have tried the 2nd version and see a lot of bugs repaired (yay for Deadsquirrel01), but the call still cant connect.

If I make a call, it appears if the other did not pick up and if i get a call, I don't even see if I'm called!

So it seems like I don't get a message or reply on calls.

Any pointers where to dig in the framework to get it fixed? :)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] DeadSquirrel01:
The problem is the audio amplifier (Tfa9895) which forces me to use stock audio hal. So, i need to build the amplifier in the android audio HAL. Now I've created a small audio amplifier (commit https://github.com/DeadSquirrel01/a...mmit/0347815dc1117954e81f4e3257da7de5e9725ec3 ) which still need some work and test to make it to work
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Reazin:
Ah! I thought it was something else. I did not realized that the audio amplifier handled the calls. BTW I wouldnt call it " audio during call bug" at least in my situation, because the "call" never happens. The other picks it up but on my end it still shows "dialing" but without the dialing beeps.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] DeadSquirrel01:
In fact it isn't caused by the amplifier; the amplifier just force me to use stock audio HAL which is the cause of that bug, or at least until i correctly implement amplifier in audio HAL (commit i posted)
