OK, I see I think two reports of weird stuff, here is mine.

G935T, eng root, govtuner, latest tweaks, stock BQH7

I loaded the tweaks ,all, two nights ago, went well with Flashfire.

Yesterday I tested the phone all day, seemed OK. Light use and > 18 hours battery life. I did notice that EVERYTHING was killed in RIB. The script confirms this.

So today my goal was to put stuff of import into the whitelist. This is when I noticed all my widgets were broken, just not working at all. Deleting and readding made no difference.

So I ran the uninstaller. It looked ago, went quickly. On reboot still same problems, including the RIB stuff. I looked in init.d and the kev scripts were all still there. Build.prop had the old bak date but the contents of it were much more, including kev stuff.

I manually deleted the init.d files and copied over the build.prop bak and rebooted.

Now, I am missing many incoming texts and outgoing texts are for the most part not being received. I even had a spontaneous reboot.

I guess I'll have to wipe and manybe even flash stock. Any ideas?

Using init.d emulator in KA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
First off, you shouldn't need init.d emulator as if you root with the root.bat it already has init.d support. And yes, looks like you'll have to flash stock.

Once rerooted and tweaks are flashed, to add things to the whitelist find the package name of what you want to whitelist and go to /data/data/ rib (second from bottom I think) and open it. Paste the package name there and then save it.

Then they are whitelisted ;)

Edit: [MENTION=4819587]kevp75[/MENTION], you should reorganize the rib and wl list. Like add headings and out them in groups
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
LOL

No thanks.

The script is heavy enough as it is.

It cycles through the rib whitelist and skips them line by line mate. Add in a comment, and then we'll need to start adding too many conditions inside the loop, making it even heavier.

Honestly mate.... making it easier for people won't make them any more cautious or smarter ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] carpboy:
No luck, have to emulate to get gov tuner to load on boot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Use su.d??

Go into /system and create a folder called "su.d"

Give it all permissions (0777)

Copy the govtuner file into there and give it full permissions (0777) and reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Yes, that's true
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] carpboy:
Well, it happened again. Flashed back to stock, all apps restored, blah blah. Flash the tweaks, skipping three things: games, power, and memory (IIRC). All OK on boot.

So flashed again, this time doing power and memory.

On boot widgets broken and texting fragged.

I don't know if it was power and/or memory or if it would happen on 2nd boot no matter what.

Will try to narrow it down.

Uninstaller didn't work again. I deleted everything listed in the script and replaced the build.prop, got a softbrick as a present.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] carpboy:
So I've installed it again, this time I answered "no" to all points in the install. It looks like quite a bit is happening anyway, mainly the RIB and Wl stuff.

Just what is installed when I answer 'no' to everything?

Seems OK at the moment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] dakemin22:
Ok love the tweaks by kev but i need some help. The only issue i have is certain apps not updating until i actually open it.. Example textnow use to send notifications but i have to open app and refresh it.. Same with weather widget it only updates when i click the icon.. Anyone know how to fix issue.. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
gotta find the package names for the apps and add them to /data/data/rib_allowed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Still doesn't work for snapchat and hangouts
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
try adding them to wl_allowed as well.

as soon as the app is openned the RIB and Wake Lock re-enables, so if it's still causing an issue, there may be more than 1 package for the apps.

either that or something else is going wrong.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Dakemin:
Ok ive found the rib list.. So what's the easiest way to find the package name to what you want to ad.?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Dakemin:
Nvm i downloaded package name viewer from playstore
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Hmmm. I've had it degreenified, de-powernapped, in both except lists and out of amplify. I also DO NOT have sync blocked on amplify and is in in settings. I've tried for awhile...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
i personally cant stand either so I dont use them lol

i had thought i set secruestorage in build.prop, but i guess not... maybe try that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] dakemin22:
Well i followed instructions with the rib and whitelist suggestion but didn't work. Has anyone had success with it.?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Thadanator:
I think you suggested somewhere to try reinstalling hangouts...

I tried converting hangouts to a user app via Titanium Backup, but I can't uninstall the app from the play store without it causing a reboot. I see an option in Titanium: "Force remove app (by recovery exploit)" but I'm not sure if I should be doing that.

Has anyone gotten hangout notifications to work?? I tried the tweeks uninstaller, but to no avail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Uninsta via titanium backup and then reinstall from play store. That should make it user. Reboot arte uninstalling though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Thadanator:
Are you saying to choose the "Force remove app (by recovery exploit)" option? Is that safe?

I guess it doesn't really matter, since texting and widgets are also screwed up. Seems whitelisting in both lists doesn't help.

I want to stop my phone from killing everything. But it looks like I screwed up and this is not reversible :'(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Of course it is. You'll have to flash stock tons of times. I take it you know how to?

Also, you could uninstall via a file manager. Find where it's located and go to it (should be in /system/priv-app or /system/app) and just uninstall the folder. Then reboot. Should remove it.

As for the recovery exploit, I've never tried it. Give it a whirl if you want.

*Unrelated to above*

[MENTION=4819587]kevp75[/MENTION] (sorry for the double mention lol)

Any plans for services and alarm blocking?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
As in?

Service and alarm blocking? Technically the run in background, and wake lock should already be taking care of those.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Yes... like in amplify. But if that takes care if it then oh well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
maybe i can tear apart amplify and see what else we could do...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
I don't have any experience with apps :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Thadanator:
After flashing a custom ROM on my previous phones, I've never had to flash stock. I'm not a guru at Android modding, so I hesitate before I made big changes that I don't understand or that have outcomes I don't understand.

I just flashed HOME_CSC to my S7, that didn't seem to change anything related to KevsTweaks (I didn't think it would, but I also didn't want to start all over if I didn't have to).

I guess flashing CSC will put me where I need to be?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
No... You'll flash ap, cp, and csc(or home csc)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Thadanator:
Yes, to be specific, I flashed AP+CP+BL and HOME_CSC, which left my apps intact, but I still do not receive notifications for hangouts unless I open the app.

My question was: Will flashing the regular CSC remove the tweeks that are killing my apps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
It should yes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
if you flashed ap, you should not have any tweaks... unless you installed apps to do so.

your issue doesnt lie with the tweaks... it lies in something else tou may have installed.

Do you use Greenify?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
AP contains the system partition.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
[MENTION=4819587]kevp75[/MENTION]

It seems that the build.prop line ro.securestorage.support being set to "false" is messing with my Wi-Fi passwords; They are not being saved and it is behind the Bluetooth issue. I've set it to "true" and all is well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Ah.

Do you know if SHealth is still working for you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
I do not. I uninstalled it. I'll grab it from apk mirror. Should it be a system app or does it matter?

Edit: Latest one from apk mirror is for kitkat... Can you grab the apk for me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Thanks, package name?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Got me bud.

It's one I debloat ;) I have a FitBit, which doesnt seem to work with it, so... gone! lololol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Seems I was thinking ahead.

They are both already added to rib_allowed and the service only is in wl_allowed

com.sec.android.app.shealth
com.sec.android.service.health
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Didn't need it lol. I just put the apk in the directory and vwala... Seems to be working fine man ;) Though not sure. I don't use it

Making me look lazy haha, 0 steps smh
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Hmmm.... weird... when I first tried it, after rooting it didnt work.

Once I put that line into build.prop it worked again ;)

LOL

My FitBit thinks I workout all day, because my heart rate is high LMFAO
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
That's awesome. Any word on your ROM you were working on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Nah, still fighting with it. Having troubles with recompiling SystemUI at the moment...

was also trying to get a version to be flashable via Heimdall [unrooted, but with my build.prop tweaks, and debloated] (Im on linux now), but that keeps failing... ugggg
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Gotya haha. Why not just use FlashFire?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Ehh, I need to experiment with Heimdall anyways in case I brick lol

Building a zip now, pretty much stock(ish), has my build.prop tweaks and a couple other things, but mostly debloated.

If it flashes, next stop for it is the Xperia stuff and replacing the Samsung stuff with it ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Nice. As for the brick. Look into edl mode (emergency download mode). Supposedly gets you out of hard bricks :)

Can it work for oreo?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
I dont have this device anymore, so, the best I can say is

backup your device

flash it

report back if it does or not (and how u came to that conclusion)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Soft-bricked after flashing kev tweaks v2 :/ Think its because I was already on v1??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
No sir, it doesn't look like it.

But Remember, I have not flashed your tweaks yet either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
What is a good "stock" to flash back to on the verizon s7e?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
Nope, thats not the reason. I got the same result and I havent installed V1..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Gotya. V1 is amazing tho!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
When i get back up and running, i will try it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
did you happen to grab a log?

just got done flashing v2

only thing that happenned to me was init.d is still not firing
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
I odined back to stock, rooted, installed the govtuner (I had to copy the file into the init.d folder) and installed the v1 tweaks. Now all the files show and the tweaks in the build.prop.

We will see how this works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Dr. Flashaholic:
Question: what does run in background ignorer do? Does that mean no notifications unless the app is foreground?

Edit: Found the answer lol. Will this work with Run in background setter app in XDA labs? Or do I still have to manually add process names to the file to exempt them?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Glad ya found it ;)

It will work with it, however, it will override what gets "ignored" as set by the app, on boot though, so if there is a "on boot" setting in the app, that may do the trick.

There's really no need for both. My script looks at every package on your device, then determines if it has the RUN_IN_BACKGROUND property. Then if it's not in the exempt list, it will set it to 'ignore'.

Yes, you will need to add whatever app package you need to keep 'enabled' to /data/data/rib_disabler_list
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
If you prefer the app, just delete the file: /system/etc/init.d/99KevRIB
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Dr. Flashaholic:
Thanks for the solution, I appreciate it :)

I tried to extract the zip, delete the file and remake the zip, but it gave me an error in recovery as shown in the image. Please tell me where I went wrong..

Sorry, I'm just a medical student, and I don't know much about these scripts..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Hey mate, no need to do this if you've already flashed the mod.

Just open up a root file browser, browse to /system/etc/init.d and delete the file from there.

:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Dr. Flashaholic:
Oh sorry i misunderstood.. that's even more easy than i thought.. haha thank you so much, will flash v3 tomorrow and report. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
;)

No problem mate
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
So... it looks like cron does not work for us.

However, I do have a way around that ;)

Update getting tested now.

ALSO

It was brought to my attention that this may not work on the U firmwares, so until it's posted in the OP, I'll state that this is for V firmwares only (for now)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Version 1 works on ufirm... can you post it back plz
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
v4 will to.

i dont have v1 anymore.

u doesnt have some of the same configurable values as v... thats why it looped.

v4 is an aroma installer where you can select the device... and the tweaks to apply.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Craz Basics:
Awesome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
Ok, so I odined back to stock, rooted, set govtuner like you said and instslled tweaks v1.. and so far pretty much all lag is gone and getting 15+ hours on one charge (with pretty good amount of usage)...

. All I can say, thank you and we'll done sir....

(I did find on the first day, I got pretty crappy battery life. I didn't know, but verizon had the "performance mode" on by default. I guess the two didn't like each other.. I turned that off and been smooth sailing ever since..)

Thank you again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
great to hear mate.

v4 wont be up until probably monday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Maxissc:
Just flashed Kevs Tweaks v4 + GovTuner 4.1 and complemented with custom LSpeed configuration on my G935V (Stock Rooted -QF2-)

Working great so far, will post again later after some days of use :)

Pd. I also found a mistake in the aroma where it says "improved responsiveness, improved dalvik vm memPory management"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
How do you know that wasn't on purpose? ;) lol

Care to post your LSpeed config?

I haven't tried it on this device (yet), but actually ran into a few hang-ups back when I had my note 3...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Lowhari:
After flashing the tweaks I'm not receiving any notifications from snapchat. Any solutions?

try using this app and re-enabling snapchat, and any app you want to recive notifications

Thank You!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
if you flashed my mod it will attempt to turn off the r.i.b. on every iteration... plus onboot.

best to find the package name and add it to the list in /data/data/rib_disabler_list
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Lowhari:
Ok adding the package name to the list seemed to solve the problem, Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Excellent mate :)

Next version im going to be experimenting with a couple ways to do this without having to root :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
Phone has been almost lag free after your tweaks thank you.

After installing I am not receiving texts though.. anybody else seeing this issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Don't know what rom you are on, but the Stock QF2 package for texts are included in the "dissallowed" list.

Maybe see if you can find out the name of the package and include it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
I am on QA4 stock on a g935v
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
grab titanium.

find the app in the app list

tap it

it will show you the package name

once you have that add it to the /data/data/rib_disabler_list file

then reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
I have included all apps that have sms and mms in the name. Still no luck. I may just be unsure of what you are telling me ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
Unfortunately, I do not know how to help you.

I get texts all day long, but then again I am on QF2. And I made sure to include the SMS/MMS package in the list in post 2

Did you flash my tweaks from post 3?, or simply include the ones from post 1 in your system/build.prop?

Might I suggest upgrading your firmware?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ykjae:
It's probably worth trying the firmware upgrade. I have basically found out it has something to do with the stock message+ app and have tried to uninstall and disable it with no luck. It's like the messages are just being redirected to that app.

I flashed the tweaksv4 and just included a few extra apps like Snapchat and my default message app that I use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] nu2droid:
I am currently on V1 teaks.

I have 2 questions,

1st, is there a benefit to go to v4. 2nd, if I did flash v4, do I just flash it or do I have to revert back somehow?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
changelog is post 3

the installer will take care of everything provided you didnt rename my tweak sections in build.prop
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] c-prodigo:
so I flashed thos on at&t version, which I know its not built for, but everythign works, except for the bluetooth that won't turn on, if anyone knows how to fix this let me know,I want to keep the tweaks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
you will have to ask in your rom thread.

these tweaks have nothing to do with it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] c-prodigo:
it's running stock, but thanks anyway
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
i dont have an at&t version so im not real sure what version of stock you could be on.

the only thing my tweaks could have done is diaabled the bt package from running in the background.

if you install titanium you can see the package name of the app... and double check to see if its in /data/data/rib_disabler_list

if its in there then i have no clue... if its not... add the package name to that file... then reboot... once booted open your bt settings to make sure the background process gets started
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] c-prodigo:
I looked for com.android.bluetooth in titanium backup and it wasn't there, restored build.prob with root explorer and rebooted, it worked, so I tried again but didn't delete anything else, bluetooth stoped turning on again, while the phone was running great, the bluetooth wasn't turning on, restored buil.prob again, booted recovery, wiped cache, never booted again, now running stock for a while until I get bored, so the tweaks were great except for bluetooth, thanks for all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] c-prodigo:
this is my version by the way
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kpirnie:
weird.

must be something verizon(ish) in the build.prop edits then...

when you flashed... walk me thru what you selected in the aroma...
