Will you be making a new thread and post builds?

We could help out finding bugs to iron out any issues that may be hidding.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
news news news

while playing with the audio problems on oreo i might got the opensource samsung audio hal working

i will do an test build for 14.1 in the next days to confirm that

i really hope we got sorted the audio issues out with this
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] zilvrentand:
Finally....... keep up the good stuff
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
what i said: small steps . . . :)

the time is right for a O thread. it's a bit confusing here.

edit: will try the new update ?? first time with Lapps, not Gapps
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
alright, i disabled the samsung input filters and comiled the opensource samsung audio hal

here is an test build https://mega.nz/#!UAITHSzJ!LJkLcd-PPFVOjvkJWmJxeB2sQuKTQ3hMX8vCvvSsAls

seems like apps can access now the mirophone without any problem (tested with teamspeak 3 (thats the only app where i can test it quickly))

can anyone test if all audio/mic issues are resolved this build?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AnonymousAL:
Send it right now right here :p edit:sorry i didnt see the link downloading ...
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
works for me :)

---------- Post added at 03:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

works here
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
everything works fine?

if so i would call that an success

the only downside of this is that i disabled the samsung input filters which means no noise suppression

but i guess that a good tradeoff for working audio/mic
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Are we supposed to dirty flash?

I did that and when I made a Whatsapp call to my sister's phone, the output on her side is very bad and sometimes wont even come out.

But i see people saying that it works on their site so i probably made something wrong.

Edit: Note, I didn't even test before this build because i never make calls.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AnonymousAL:
Yep mic works . I dont know if you are aware but now the audio is a bit glitchy or distorted
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
dirty flash should be fine

i also disabled some media codex in this build might be the cause of the bad quality

but atleast you can make now whatsapp calls
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Omg yes, the sound is awful, like for real.

It really bad :(
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
only the playback sound or the mic sound aswell?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
i give up with this audio **** on nougat

on oreo it works without any problem with the exact same configuration

why the hell it bugs so hard on nougat
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Yes btoh disorted, even when i send a message on whatsapp and it makes a "Ding" or "Pop" sound, its like chainsaw breaking appart.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AnonymousAL:
Only the playback

---------- Post added at 04:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

Ok then just do the oreo build and we will be glad with that... give us the oreo build and stop with nougat.. hope everything works well on oreo
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Barebonet:
Maybe you should just abandon the nougat and finish oreo then post it and rename the thread. If only Oreo works... it's newer. Everyone wants newer things so why not do this? XD
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
another test build: https://mega.nz/#!0JwkxBzD!77ZGw1LvIf-ok6hZEuxYdO9hF1cqsUfahBV-1IEhItE

audio playback should be fine and mic should work everywhere

dunno about the mic quality bcs the input filters are still disabled

edit:

oreo isnt ready yet, camera recording is still not working
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
I agree, seems like Google did some Magic stuff on Oreo.

Let's just switch to Oreo. I am pretty sure most will switch to it even though features on lineage's site are still lacking.

---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

You are probably gonna fix that within a day.

It took you like 2-3 weeks to get from a broken Oreo build to a almost perfect one.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
nope, that requires some patches that arent useable yet (they exists but arent finished yet)

but well see attachments
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Snoete:
I just tried this build and just the same as the build from 01-01-2018 I can't hear any sound during a phonecall in the car when using the blue-tooth connection with a VW Hands-free car-kit.

Playing music from the phone over the same blue-tooth connection works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Flashed, Sound is ok now but mic not working at all on whatsapp
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Barebonet:
The latest build feels really smooth. Haven't tested mic yet but if it works on every device here, should also work on mine
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AnonymousAL:
The latest test build is smooth, audio works you can video call but mic is not working

[MENTION=8184192]Stricted[/MENTION] : Thanks for your development in oreo. Hope everything is gonna be fixed soon. Good news!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Publiuss:
Hi

Tried that, recording seems working, but memory management looks quite worst than previous version, free memory is quite lower than before (I just did a dirty flash of the same stuff).
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AnonymousAL:
Did you tried messenger or whatsapp or normal recording?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Publiuss:
Hi

I do not use WhatsApp, but a similar app and now vocal recording works, the same the native Lineage vocal recorder.

But phone call speakervoice still doesn't.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Publiuss:
Well, I really thank [MENTION=8184192]Stricted[/MENTION] but I have to revert back to previous version, this one is too memory leaking... :(

EDIT: I believe there's some other problem NOT related to ROM, I disabled Xposed and will test on...

EDIT2: switched back to last version, after uninstalling some xposed modules is quite usable now!
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
after some days now, the rom is working just fine but audio is a mess (i don't need to say that :)). i'm only using music on bt or headset, no sim card.

i can't not confirm memory or power leak, seems to be normal?!

i'm totally google free (beside of Android ofc LOL) and using yt and gmail inside the browser.

why HAL is working on O and not on N?

the answer is SAMSUNG sh*tty coding.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Guys!! Xposed for Oreo is out so i decided to give it a try on the build that Stricted gave us and after several tries it booted!!! :laugh:

[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Lemmi1:
You have an Oreo build of the ROM that is really working?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
yes, i posted a few pages before an test build

altought not much was working in that build

i might post a new one in the next days where nearly eveything is working
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
i'm excited, can't wait :svetius:

---------- Post added at 12:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 PM ----------

rovo was fast this time, must be easier from N to O than fran MM to N.

is gravity box working?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Yeah, there is lots of stuff not working like Sound,microphone,camera,build in filemanager and i noticed video don't want to play.

But as Stricted said, he fixed almost all of these.

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 PM ----------

Still no Gravitybox for Oreo, but its been just one day. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Lemmi1:
Sounds great!

Will wait for your build.

I mostly need camera and gps for Geocaching. Ok mike should work for some telefone calls [emoji6]

What root is better for your build?

Chainfires method or Magisk? Have both as possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
on oreo gps is working, camera is only working for taking pictures (video recording bugs atm)

i wouldnt recomment chainfire nor magisk, use the lineageos root addon
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] kaodd:
oki, thx buddy. waiting patienly
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Use the :svetius: button, it's there for a reason :D
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Lemmi1:
Mh everything on camera should work, than it is good. But I can wait.

I don't know the lineage root addon at all right now. It seems new to me. Is there somewhere a "how to use" tutorial?

Chainfire and Magisk I know well. I rooted it serveral times with magisk and works well, even on stock rom. But this from lineage I here the first time. Must look for it.

I first need root to install a custom rom I tought. Or is there another method?

Hope I can use it also for stock rom till your rom is useable for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
As long as you have a custom recovery you should be able to flash any compatible ROM. The ROM doesn't have to be rooted.

Root is just an "Addon". And should be completly optional because some apps may not work if SafteyNet detects root or any other modifications.

For example Google Pay(Virtual Bank app afaik) won't work or Mario Run won't be avaliable at the Playstore, sometimes even Snapchat doesn't let you log in.

That's why LineagOS doesn't have Root build in but provides an additional Flashable Zip that should add an option in your developer settings that enables root for applications.

Well, that's how it worked on LOS14.1, i haven't tested this on Oreo so i am not sure.

What i do use and recommend is Magisk, it doesn't touch the system partition and has lots of features like SafteyNet bypass.

And i heard that Chainfire is kind of getting "outdated" and that Magisk root is the new thing.

Just don't quote me on that :laugh:

Edit: Do not use LineageOS root addon on any other ROM or stock firmware.

One question (i'm noob at these things)

With the oreo update, you know if the dual sim cards will work?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
it

should

work

atleast i added support for that

i dont have the dual sim variant of the phone so i cant test that
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Publiuss:
Hi

I installed the last automated build of LoS 14.1 (20180108), and it's super OK.

I noticed there aren't the audio fix you made, will the next build contain it?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Probably not. He gave up on nougat. Oreo is the next objective.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
i only made some tests

since it still buged and affected even the calling i didnt pushed the changes

i didnt gave up entirely but its really strange thats nearly nothing works

right now i even have audio issues on oreo

got ril now finally for single sim working but audio seems to be really crap

i didnt made a real call, only called my number and the notification sound is really disturbed

have to figure out how to fix that now

edit: thats fixed, i might do another try on nougat

edit2: also audio in an actual call is working

i might be unable to add dualsim support, as soon as i add the needed changes for that it also trys to start the dual sim stuff on the single sim phone

no idea why, it shouldnt do that but its doing it

edit: also dual sim support is fixed
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
seems like i got audio fully fixed on oreo

did an call and it works (mic and audio seems to be fine), audio playback works(tested with youtube), audio and mic works on teamspeak3

i will try to backport that to nougat later

i hope it will work
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] zeltrax:
Awesome stuff? 2 questions!

-Is there a step by step guide for doing this rom?

- Does this ignore the moisture sensor on the charging point on the phone. (hope it does because I have the moisture glitch)
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
Same here, i have the mosture stuff too and it's annoying.

The ROM just doesn't have that message and the phone charges really slow. Often when i plug in my phone it stops charging and then starts charging again.

[MENTION=8184192]Stricted[/MENTION] can you somehow do some kind of hack that ignores the moisture stuff?
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
i have no idea how that works, i need a log to see whats happening there
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
On stock firmware for some reason it can happen that you get a notification that says that miosture has been detected and the phone makes an annoying sound constandly alarming you that there is a problem wih moisture.

After insyalling your ROM my phone just charges slow. In the lockscreen there is a message saying that the phone is chrging slow.

And sometimes it stops charging for a second and then starts charging again.

There is no other indication because this is Lineage.

I could try to recreate this and copy the log.

Do i need to do something specific? Or just normal logcat?

Also i have Xposed but that is not the reason of all this. Just sayn cause i don't want you to get mad if you see xposed in the logs.

I will disable Xposed and recreate the stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] zeltrax:
Does is it still indicate the moisture detected on lineage? if it doesnt ill try and install it today and see the speeds mine charges at incase their might be something faulty with your phone. Like mine charges normal speeds on stock just sometimes the message comes up moisture is detected and stops there charging completely.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
No indication, it just stops charging sometimes and starts charging again.

Maybe it can be disabled somehow cause i know there is a Configuration in Boeffla kernel that allowed to disable security restrictions for charging on my old s3.

Maybe something similar can be done here.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
logcat + dmesg/kmsg would be helpfull
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Barebonet:
Hey Stricted the oreo build will appear in the nearest future (1-3 days) or maybe a bit later like in a week? Cause the nougat is driving me crazy because of wifi that sometimes doesn't work when I use it for about a minute. I have turn off and on and it still works about one minute. That's quite making me Furious sometimes
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stricted:
no idea when i will publish oreo

also i dont think it will change anything on your wifi problem because it will use the same blobs/drivers as the nougat rom
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] LuciferIII:
It took me a while sry :D

So, i am not really sure but i think most of the time it happenes when the charge is at >90%, then it either does disconnect and reconnects the charge(let's call it Re-connect bug) one or two times withing 20 minutes or sometimes it goes insane and does it like 10 times within a minute, yes i am serious. I was able to notice this cause i turned on the option for the phone to make a Sound every time i connect or disconnect a cable.

Last night i let my phone charge and somewhere in the morning it started Re-connecting like crazy :rolleyes:

Well, here are the logs and some pics, i could capture only 2 Re-connects, maybe its shy now cause i am waiting for it :p

I included the notification for the moisture from the stock firmware too, i found it on google and its the exact same but not the same phone probably. But the notification is the exact same, [MENTION=8851321]zeltrax[/MENTION] can probably confirm this.

The other two are my charger and the indicator on my lockscreen that says that my phone is charging slowly.(and it does,but only sometimes)

I will have to test this out.

I will probably end up replacing the battery, I don't think it's my charger cause i tested it with 2 others and it's the same.

Maybe the charging port is faulty.

merge it and accept bad mic in whatsapp and maybe other apps

or dont merge it and have an overall ****ed audio and mic
