Well done! Thanks. I will have to try that!

aha no problem it's already that..!

And you are right! QF3 is out for S7 flat, it will arrive soon for us...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] dogg94:
Out of curiosity has anyone had success getting CPU clock speed settings to stick? I've tried Kernel Adiutor and Kernel Toolkit, both let me change them but neither stick, wondering if there is another culprit?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Jerryvail924:
Have u tried No frills cpu? It has an option to stop system from changing cpu back.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] dogg94:
honestly don't know if it's working but doesn't appear to be sticking plus only shows smaller cores.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
could change it via the rooting CPU govenor ..

echo 1593600> /sys/power/cpufreq_max_limit

by altering that line in the s7cpusettings.sh file, but be careful ! too high may just make it too unstable, or lock you out ???

PS, now sorting out the fix, had a lightning storm here, that took out my router and android TV box :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Jerryvail924:
New up date. Now QG1.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Tre11441:
First let me say thanks i've been looking for root for the s7 active for a while now but i recently flashed version 2.2 and i keep running into the system ui has stopped and i cant figure out why. Originally i wiped and flashed from version 2 which worked but installed the noname mods in version 2.2 and i didn't like them so wiped and reflashed and when I did that i got the system ui error. I managed to get into download mode and load up qd4 and re-root and re- flash but after 3 times i still get the system ui error.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Yeah it's a little bug sadly (was to to do with the no name install/uninstall, only effects later firmware too as they have a newer systemui ),

have now fixed it, just testing it (v2.3).

If that goes well, will put link up later on today ...

(had net issues last night, but back on track now)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
New 2.3 versions is ready ... link here ...

UFirm_Hybrid_S7active_Nougat_V2.3

Will update op shortlyish :)

Mainly systemui fault for newer firmware fixed,

Added smartswitch app choice,

Tried to fix flashfire install, not tried it after a wipe, but I don't think it will stick/work, but woll be better than crashing an not able to fix ya self (seems it's picky on it's location, as it doesn't like being a system app) ....

And put better device.prop handling in...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Not sure on your install procedure last time, or if ya tried running through script again ..

but try running 2.3 now, and now only select tmo type, can add some apps etc, but do not select ANY debloats

See if that makes a difference :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] 3arthur6:
Yeah! Not able to found it in paid download but it will arrive soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] FtaWolf:
Here what ur looking for. Qf2 to Qg1.

Upload to my gdrive.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzNieA_8I6qvM1Z4T1VON2tOTm8/view?usp=drivesdk

Found in another thread. Thanks to [MENTION=5947262]khaliullov[/MENTION] .

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------

Maybe on Qf2 I should have rerun root.bat again.

My problem with qf2 was trying get busybox installed. Any suggestions on qf2 greatly appreciated.. Even Qg2 still has bootloader V2.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
have also now added this to the OP, along with a mega OTA folder link .. (i gained them from https://cloud.mail.ru/public/BGy7/gKs4xzhRE/ )

under new Step1a OTA updating ! ...

But i think he was referring to a whole Odin QG2 download

so QF1 is still problimatic for some then ... ive still not tried it !

busybox isnt strictly needed to get root, only for support of other apps like Viper4Android

but you can look for app on playstore called 'busybox' which will download and install busybox files for you ...

or i have included this in my ufirm ROM modder script ...

annoying of which, ive just found out i broke with this whole device.prop updating thing ! grrr gonna just remove device.prop handling for now i think, its doing more harm than good !
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Tre11441:
Running into some more issues trying to flash version 2.3 for some odd reason it won't stick . It keeps saying set_perm changes could not be made and exists the install. Now granted I chose not to install the noname mods so i'm not sure if that is causing the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
if your selecting the reroot option, it will be that ...

now uploading a fix, but for now just select no change :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Lucifer3x:
I've tried, and feel better now. I choose interactive governor with a simple BS debloat. But samsung cloud doesnt work.

Of course, what about "tmo type" means :D I dont see it in the arora setup.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Sorry somehow got you mixed up with mjulian,

Tmo, is short for t-mobile...

But is good to get some feedback on the different governors....

The last message was for you. ...

Have you tried going through script again only selecting T-Mobile type, an no debloats....

This should re-instate all the csc...

not sure if you selected debloats on your last run through script, as network debloat over writes it to a debranded att....

As for next update. May wait a bit, make sure there's no other niggles ... or things that would be nice to implement....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mjulian06:
I ran TMO and then the 120+ debloat. I'll give it a shot without the debloat and see how it goes.

How would you recommend reflashing? Should I start back from the beginning or is there a way for me to update to 2.3 from 2.2 that is easier?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] dogg94:
I hate to admit it, I think I'm going to have to go back to stock. These engineer kernels are just too laggy, I wish I knew how to mod them but alas I do not. thank you again for your work. If anyone can attack that angle on these we'll be golden. Tried taking a picture of my daughter doing something funny today but after 20 seconds of my camera app not being ready I missed the opportunity.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
20seconds :( that's bad, what setting do you have it on ?... I'm sure there's better than that

I...

I have worked out how you can get stock kernel working, with most of these mods, by reading the flat/edge forum... its why I started on this ufirm

But needs more time, an a little risk..

So need a guinea pig to trial it ! ...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] dogg94:
hmm, what do you have in mind?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Mine definitely does not lag anywhere near that much at all, that's with the on-demand governor...

But yes the original kernel hack is linked in op, I think, its where the origins of this script came from, and was my initial goal (that and the gear vr!)

But I'm confident that using the g930a files we should be ok, but that's the risk, and its messing with major system files ...i out lined it on the first few post in this thread, in reply to another post ...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] dogg94:
I'm not at my computer right now, but looking at the op I'm not sure what the path is?

The only thing I see is a link to the G930a Engineering kernel not the stock one, or am I missing something there?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Oops seems I didn't link it ...

Will have to add it once home, but its here..

https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/development/rom-t3629175

That's what I adapted for our use,

So could also adapt it for the stock side of it too ...

But will need time, an help I expect !!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Just download 2.3 and run that. No need for odin to stock or anything etc. Just flashfire in to 2.3.

Shoulnt need a wipe. (Could try that later if not)

No need for reroot (is a little broken anyhow on 2.3)

and definitely no debloats ...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mjulian06:
Ok. Reflashed with 2.3, TMo, and no debloat. Right now I'm getting the com.android.phone has stopped error again. Went to settings, applications, and was going to clear the phone cache but the app isn't even there. Tried to open the app on the home screen and it comes up with the same issue.

Trying to do some work around right now. Also, noticed that the WiFi calling button at the top isn't even an option any more. It is completely blank.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
:( to get it back to it was,

reflash, and select no network (not tmo) and a network debloat... that should put it back to how it was .....

Will compare tmo section to the one in the csc flasher that was posted a few pages back...

If its different will update it, but I could convert it to work on our active :)

And to tackle the com.android.phone error think gonna need logcat to get to the bottom of that one ...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mjulian06:
Did a backup with flashfire. Flashed back to the setup before trying to upgrade to 2.3. Super easy to do and worked well. It's working great as I have it now. Just lacking the WiFi calling which works well for my line of work as I travel a lot. I wish I could be more helpful. I just have little to no skills when it comes to programming and rely heavily on the great work of others when it comes to this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] FtaWolf:
QG1 rooted successfully.

Now what about this g930a eng-img kernel.

Is it any better then. G891a one we using now?

Governor On-demand seems be doing pretty good.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Sorry you miss understand its not a G930A kernel, its a method that they have working on a G930A (and all 930/flat and 935/edge s7's)

So That it allows you to use the stock kerne, while allowing the system folder to be messed with too ... thus this script working on a 'stock setup... thus a stable user friendly cool operation but with mods

Won't have root , but could get most of the benefits (adblocking. Custom look, debloats. Etc)

I'm confident it would work, but its not all that straight forward, and gonna need time to develop again !! And it took me long enough to get this far ...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] SpaceXFTW:
I noticed that my build number changed and I think it from the s8 and I also noticed that it's a lot laggierthan v2. Currently on v2.3
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] lmiko:
Hi,

first : thanks a lot for the work. I love my S7A. will love it more whith your setup.

I have an issue : I am on latest stock rom. Flashed root file with odin. Root.bat worked fine.

Then I tried twice to flashfire UFirm_Hybrid_S7active_Nougat_V2.3.zip without success.

I got to Aroma options. then to install. It starts, and after less than 10 sec, after flashing EngBoot Image, installing fingerprintFix, and ondemand CPU governor, it says "set_perm: some changes failed"...

then next, reboots to wiped stock.

any help would be very welcome.

thank you

____EDIT____

Just read that selecting REROOT would cause this. sorry for not reading all posts before :)

I will try that with no change.

Did I miss a updated version of the archive ?

thanks again.

---------- Post added at 11:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

Hi,

indeed i observe some real lagging since rooting compared to the original kernel settings in latests stock firmware.

How can I come back to the original kernel / kernel settings ?

thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
now looking into the CSS/Network/T-Mobile option..

comparing them in the CSCSelection_2.4 flashable zip over on the S7flat/edge forum here ..

https://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/development/utility-flashable-csc-selection-30-t3392957

but ATT,TMO,SPT,VZW (AT&T,T-Mobile,Sprint, and Verizon) are all bunched in one multi CSC, XAA

so their settings/folder contents are much the same, plus some changes in lettering at system/csc/sales_code.dat and /efs/imei/mps_code.dat

the sales_code.dat is being changed already in this script, but not the /efs/imei/mps_code.dat .... but thats a little more sensitive area, as its the IMEI area !

i HAVE checked the settings, and it DOES include WifiCalling option, so im not sure whats going on :(

did find this https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69864872&postcount=5484 just the quickshortcut steps maybe that would help [MENTION=8379329]Mjulian06[/MENTION] ?

maybe as it was overwritten it didnt take properly, maybe a clean start from scratch then the quickshortcut steps as above?? but only a guess !
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mjulian06:
Interesting. I'll look into it. I'm going to be busy for the next couple of days so I won't be able to work on my phone. When I get some time I'll get going on it and keep you updated. Thanks again for all of the hard work.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] FtaWolf:
If anyone wants Call Recording here in us.

Still works from s5 days ..

To activate it - you need to edit /system/csc/feature.xml file (if exists, otherwise you need to edit /system/csc/others.xml file). Just add the following line (anywhere, BETWEEN <FeatureSet> and </FeatureSet> lines):

Just remove quotes..

"<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAllowed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>"
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Will add it in so its there if you do a network debloat (as that copies over a new others.xml)

Also found on my build.prop troubles there was a

#increase general performance

Added section added on the original ufirm network configs...like hw3d.force=1 plus 30 odd lines/entries like that ... so I'm now wondering if it make a big difference!? ...

Need some trial peeps I think !! ...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] FtaWolf:

Anyway to add the s8 clock lockscreen widget on this rom? Many thanks :D

---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:22 AM ----------

More details about this tricks please :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
more details of which tricks ? all 30+ lines ??

Will natively add the recording on next release...

And s8 clock widget, how do you mean ?

You can already add s8 clock/calendar and fonts via the weather stuff, along with the always on display too ...

So Not sure what you mean ....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] derelicte:
Great work everyone! Thanks for putting this together!

I'm looking forward to using this on a newly obtained S7 Active on T-Mobile once I get it charged and updated with all OTAS beyond QB2. I'll stick to my N6P on Fi, OFC, but a family member can make good use of this!

Would you suggest waiting on the CSC fix for WiFi Calling?

Thanks!

Edit 1: Does anybody know if there's a fix to the recovery showing "No Command"? I think it starts working after a minute or so. Flashing the latest full ODIN image and doing both OTAs didn't fix the issue.

Edit 2: I did a clean flash of 2.3 with a wipe of data, T-Mobile as the network settings, and a No-BS Debloat. I picked Google options.

Edit 3: I did get one com.android.phone crash (I started a logcat, but it didn't occur again) and the notification screen appears wrong (any downward arrow icons are wrong),

Edit 4: I did a data wipe and changed the options so there wouldn't be any Google options. I couldn't move on after setting up and getting to the security part. I had to pick a PIN to continue.

Edit 5: Is there a way I can do a completely fresh install with new options? Would this require a fresh ODIN install, both OTA updates, a re-root, and a fresh install again? The ROM appears to work fine, but I can't get rid of the weird notification icons I mentioned. I could have sworn I did a data wipe, so why do I have the Google options I picked the first time I did a flash, as well as the NN mods app?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
The no command in recovery, is i think due to dm-verity checks etc ... so a wait is the only way, while its doing and failing the checks I thinks ?

The csc fix, and the com.android.phone error I have found and fixed in the next release ...

Along with the reroot, and apps not liking being system apps too ...

Should be releasing either tonight or tomorrow s ...

Starting from stock odin is always best :) ....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
NEW UPDATE v3 :)

UFirm_Hybrid_S7active_Nougat_V3

links also OP..

.v3

refixed the reroot option and

build.prop is now working correctly, added 30+ aditional tweaks

fixed all the com.android.phone errors

made some of the extra-mods,user apps, instead of system apps as they didnt work right (flashfire, smartswitch etc)

added BixbyButton app to bixby line up, allows activity button function like the s8 :)

added in call recording in CSC

these 30+ build.prop entries, not totally sure of their effectiveness..

does seem better with them, but not sure if thats just perceived only ?

but they are ..

Great! I'll be testing this shortly. Does this release have the TMobile WFC fix? I didn't see it mentioned in your changelog.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] javcarbe:

The new xposed works? does anyone tested ?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
Not sure which WFC fix you mean?

Dirty flash is ok.

New xposed?

Not sure what you mean by this ?

Its never had xposed,

or did you mean the most recent zip that was released for nougat, as that was only for aosp, and is very buggy ....

Google translated to " Thanks again for your Continued attention!"

No problem, hopefully all bug free now "没问题，希望所有的故障现在"
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] javcarbe:
i flash over the old version and boot loop.....

When i ask about the xposed is if the xposed for nougat works in this rom or not ..

I need help going back to stock if I use Odin it shows a error and I'm not rooted and I just have this custom Rom which is nice how it looks

aboot fused 2 binary 1

That's what it says on my s7 active and on my pc it said

Authentication fail
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
as above... it was only for asop, and even for that it was very buggy..

what options did you use ? reroot ? which apps etc ? and what firmware was that on ?...

have you now got back to stock, and tried again ??

sounds like a bad download of the odin files maybe?

are you using the Odin app, and the QD4 from the OP (original Post) ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] mrangel174:

Well this is interesting, I've been on version 3 for 2 days without incident, just got off a plane, took my plane off airplane mode, restarted it and approximately 50 to 70 apps uninstalled including flashfire, xda, imgur, Facebook, kind of weird. I verified they were uninstalled and not hidden by reinstalling them via titanium and pay store. Not that big of a deal just really weird. Another oddity, my music player got uninstalled but my playlists didn't wipe which always do from an uninstall.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] eualex:
I followed the tutorial from the beginning. Updated, root and custom roam here. Now and test. Unfortunately I did not realize any advantages over the stock. Even so, I force you for the effort and time you spend.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] FtaWolf:
Ok fellows I got wi-fi calling straighten out.

Done reinstall little different & everything picked up just fine. Think it was full wipe of all at&t & network that might been problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] bandario:
Installed version 3 last night. Seems that all of my previous concerns have been nicely ironed out, and your latest round of tweaks have sped things up nicely.

I have been able to return to using interactive governor which means I have used 5% battery in the last 8 hours instead of 50%. It is still early days, but I think we have a winner here.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] miniminus:
yes looking into all the apps it wipes, found one releated to WiFiCalling ... WfcService ... so will remove that from the deletion list ..

it also has ATTVoWifiSPG on the list, but i think thats a AT&T specific one ?? thats not actually needed ?

thats extremely odd ! for it to actually uninstall all those ?? .. not even sure how ? as that looks like an factory reset/wipe would need to do those, or that many at once ?

maybe some form of power saving mode maybe ?

Thankyou, Good to get some feedback :)

espicially the diference between ondemand, and interactive ...

is it not working at all ? is it not even switching on ? .. or does it switch on but isnt able to connect ? ..

going to need need more info if you want help ..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Active ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Lucifer3x:
Cant switching on. I think when debloat it delete some apps that idont know, because i choose clean playstore option.

Another question, can this ufirm rom run on android M? Because i need debloat option on this rom, very convenient.

Thank you again.
