[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION]

Is there any reason AAC, WMA and Vobis offloading are disbaled in the LOS device tree? iirc the MSM8996 should handle them.

And can u give me a hint towards which OPAMP is used for the headphone output? Im trying to find out if it supports a low gain mode as my IEMS dont play well with the usual high-gain mode (too much static hiss -.-)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] spacebug:
I have the same issue.

edit: I mean that issue with no sound when I make a call. I have to push loud speaker on and off and then i works.

April 24 build of LineageOS, (global version of ZTE Axon 7), carrier "Hallon" in sweden.

(There is nothing wrong with my simcard).
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Super.Alberto:
I've done some further testing with a different SIM2 and all seems good (after a few hours of testing).

I suspect the initial problem was caused by a faulty/bad fitting SIM2 (I trimmed it from micro to nano).

In terms of support by LineageOS 14.1 - so far dual SIM works well.

I can select which SIM is used for DATA/SMS/Voice.

I can select SIM for SMS/Voice for each call, for a number or all numbers.

I can receive and make calls (both SIMs)

I have received/sent SMS (both SIMs)

I can use either SIM for data.

I can view data usage per SIM.

I can disable/enable a whole SIM.

I can disable a SIM data if it exceeds that SIM's data quota.

I can network roam on SIM2 (haven't tried SIM1)

I can hotspot via SIM1 (some hotspot problems using SIM2 - suspect routing/iptables issue as I can connect to the hotspot DHCP, but no internet)

I haven't tested all permutations, but so far dual SIM seems well supported (hotspot SIM2 aside).

Perhaps others could provide feedback on dual SIM experiences.

Edit:

I've managed to get a workaround for the hostspot using SIM2 DATA.

Enable hotspot (you will be able to connect - DHCP, but no internet)

Goto "Set up Wi-Fi Hotspot" and press SAVE.

SAVE seems to refresh the config and the route/iptables starts working.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] nupi:
Dual sim definitely works. Did not try to deactivate one sim fully but everything else was working for me (though not sure I tried hotspot tbh)

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] boxemall:
they still didn't figure how to fix the sound issue? i was taking a look at the changelog for the newest LOS build but can't seem to find anything about a sound fix. with the great sound hardware the Axon has this seems to be a drawback. i'm not a dev myself but it seems ZTE has done a bad job with this phone. i was counting on the community to pick this phone up. maybe i should have gone with the oneplus 3 after all. now i'm debating to pick up LOS regardless ofthe sound issue. stock marshmallow just doesn't feel fluid and the stock nougat felt a bit better for me at least. but i heard there are many ppl who felt nougat felt even worse over marshmallow.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Nik2424:

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Super.Alberto:
This is normal - all Axon 7 loaded with LineageOS report Device Model "A2017U" (mine is the China version).

This device model comes from the build.prop.

The Modem is what's important - you need to load the modem that corresponds to your original hardware.

Load A2017G_N_Modem.zip for A2017G model (Global/Open Market)

Load A2017U_N_Modem.zip for A2017U model (USA)

Load A2017_N_Modem.zip for A2017 China model

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:31 PM ----------

I have the 4GB/128GB China A2017 model - never had any problems with sound.

I started with lineage-14.1-20170410-nightly-axon7-signed.zip + ZTEA7_LOS_SoundPatch_v4.1NB_by_DrakenFX.zip and all sounds were good.

I've subsequently upgraded to lineage-14.1-20170424-nightly-axon7-signed.zip and all sounds good to me.

AFAIK, the SoundPatch is included in 20170424 and does not need to be installed.

The only sound problem was when I forgot to install the Nougat (Android 7) modem package (A2017_N_Modem.zip for China model).

I was using an Android 6 modem - I could make/receive calls but no sound.

Make sure you install the corresponding N_Modem.zip file for your model.

I've tested Phone calls on/off speaker phone, MP3 playback, youtube, videolan, Jango through the speakers.

I've tested a MP3, youtube, Jango over the provided earphones.

It all sounds crisp, clear, distortion free (excellent to an untrained ear).

I just have the basic settings, no equalizer/Atmos software loaded.

I've not tested sound over Bluetooth.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] :
For those wondering about recording quality, I think it's supported by the ROM but not being used.

When I record from the built-in Recorder app (org.lineageos.recorder) I get terrible quality. Suddenly my playing of the French horn sounds like a dinosaur far away, dying, and I swear I'm not that bad. ;P

However, using a third party recorder (I'm using Sony Mobile's Audio Recorder) I am able to get stereo recordings with much better quality, and I do think it's using those sweet audio chips ZTE has blessed us with.

When I use some other app that records audio such as when I send audio messages on Telegram, I get the dinosaur sounds again.

From what I see here, the problem is certainly possible to fix, and many of us really need this feature... Anyhow, keep up the good work (the audio playback fix is freakin' awesome)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
Is there any plan to integrate Wifi calling in LOS? at least for T-Mobile, Stock B19 supports it very well.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jimbo77:
[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] not sure if you know but I have a 'hybrid' kernel capable of booting both LOS and Stock (using jccaduono lazy flasher to use each setup ramdisk) the thing is that many G stock users where having problems with their Cameras not working so I updated the Camera driver using latest G sources and that broke the Camera on LOS and B19 (I expected that to happen)

The funny thing, I updated my 2017U to B25 and when flashing the kernel with the updated camera driver the camera worked with no problems, I'm guessing ZTE will trow the updated B25 source code soon. So in case you update the camera blows (not sure if that's how it works) for LOS you'll probably need to update the kernel sources as well :( or the camera might crash.

I might be talking bs here since Im not experienced but I hope this is useful :)
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] DarkManX4lf:
Sound is fine on my Axon 7 a2017u with LOS. I have three Axon 7 with LOS and no sound issue.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sToRm1nG:
Do you by any chance know if ZTE updated the TZ for the U to 325 with B25?

Maybe we should try and clean things up a bit for the U an G variant (and the Chinese one if possible). The universal bootloader for example is no longer neccessary for the G when using v1.2.0B01 or B02 (although B02 is using the newer TZ version which is not yet added to LOS).
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Oki:
There are just a couple of issues that LOS and all the dependent ROMs such as RR can't provide:

1. Sound Quality: LineageOS sound lacks high frequencies. Same configuration in Stock B29 (Marshmallow) and B19 (Nougat) sound similar. More default gain in B19 but same relative spectral response. However LOS 14.1 is not working the sound the same way. I have tested them unmodded and modded With A.R.I.S.E. with the same configuration. The difference is the same. It is not related to preprocessing and must be something related to the DAC configuration. There is something in the Stock ROMs that makes the difference with the DAC config.

2. The second problem is Wi-Fi Calling. I am in the T-Mobile network and can use Wi-Fi calling when using B19. However LOS 14.1 for some reason supported it in the early stages but not now. It would be nice to bring that feature back to new builds.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Agent_no1:
I would like to mention, that everyone who's trying to use LOS 14-Roms (or based on it) won't be able to properly use Daydream at the moment, as the "async reprojection"-feature is not (correctly) implemented yet. There's an issue (jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-284) on the LOS-JIRA which is describing this problem. This results in several VR-Apps not switching to VR-Mode correctly (while the daydream-interface works just fine) resulting into an error "unsupported device".

Unfortunately there have no progress been made yet in the ticket, so please feel free to upvote this issue. I'm providing my help as well.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sToRm1nG:
I guess it is time then to add the new TZ version to the board-info.txt and test if everything works.

Hm... Maybe this would make it a must to upgrade to B25/B02 due to the incompatible camera blobs.
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jimbo77:
Could be. It just a headache how ZTE uses different sources for 3 phones, my camera works fine (2017U B25) with the updated driver but the G users camera don't, even with the driver from their own source code. If I use the old camera driver on B25 it will crash. Oh well ZTE likes to challenge people I guess lol
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] sToRm1nG:
Yeah, it's the same with fastboot support. :p

The B25 bootstack is safe to flash with LOS?
[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] jawz101:
It is but there's a check in the LineageOS installer that looks for you to have a nougat baseband on your phone but they don't have this new one in the check yet. The situation is you can't install LOS zips if you do update to this baseband. I'm sure they'll update the installer to check for the new one too, though.

Like, I don't want to confuse it so I guess you just have to understand what I just said.

It'll work if you're already on LOS but the current LOS installer as of May 1st won't let you install or update if you install the b25 baseband.

I went ahead and installed it and hopefully I'll be able to install the next week's build if they add this baseband version to the LineageOS check.

I'm really surprised this isn't a bigger issue. The only reason I chose the Axon 7 is for Daydream. We should make a sad commercial.

"The victims of ZTE need your help. They were lured into purchase with the promise of Daydream which they finally got long after expectations.

Now they are trapped. Not willing to give up the feature they purchased the phone for, the victims are trapped on the horrible opresive stock ROM.

ZTE even 'altered the deal' in a Darth Vader/American Airlines style and removed the freedom to choose one's own lock screen or none, and supplied a ROM without even the basic ability to support live wallpaper. Please help these tormented victims of ZTE by helping to give them a way out."

As usual, new security updates make their way into all LOS builds. The latest Android 7.1.2_r8 tag with May Security Patches have been merged to the cm-14.1 branch. All builds from May 1st onwards will include the most recent AOSP security patches.

Yet my May 1 LOS update shows Android security patch as April 5, 2017.

[ZTE Axon 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Agent_no1:
Based on my recent observations after changing back to the stock rom (as impaired daydream functionality unfortunately is a dealbreaker for me), i additionaly discovered, that LOS-based Roms also suffer from a slight jittery head-tracking in Daydream, which can be seen even in the Daydream-Menu. On the stock-rom the Daydream-Menu and the general performance of the Daydream-Apps is by far more smoother and the head-tracking kinda like a bit smoothed out. Very small movements of your head due to your breathing gets filtered away on Stock, which results in a more pleasant experience when using Daydream.

So it seems, that there is quite a lot more to it, than just modifying build.prop and hardware-functionality-files in system. Maybe there are some hardware-depended libraries involved, who gets invoked? I'm not sure, as i am no developer, but i'm sure as willing to help and providing files from the Stock A2017G B02-rom if there is the need.

Call ZTE, get an RMA (it was completely free for me, they paid shipping and repair costs both ways), return your phone to completely stock conditions, collect video evidence like I did and include it in your RMA information.

I explained only my experience on stock rom. Make no mention of the fact you unlocked bootloader or anything like that.. Pretend like you've been using mifavor the whole time. Just before you send it back, set everything back to stock, collect video evidence, and relock bootloader.
