[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] PGHammer:
Sounds like a damaged ROM (possibly damaged SIM).

You CAN do a swap to a different firmware, though.

True story - my current S7 had VZW firmware (from the jump); however, the original owner blew up the phone and left oweage on it; therefore, it was "network locked". Basically, I was not supposed to be able to take it anywhere.

How I end-ran the network lock - I put T-Mobile firmware on it. (Permissible - the phone itself has a universal SoC - I downloaded T-M firmware via updato.com, installed it using the current version of Odin, and plopped a T-M SIM from Tracfone into the phone, and migrated it to the T-Mobile side of Tracfone - replacing my VZW-hosted Tracfone handset - a Galaxy Nexus. Absatively legal.) End result - VZW (supposedly) S7, running T-Mobile firmware, on the T-Mobile side of Tracfone - as legal as an American eagle. I have LTE and VoLTE working (in fact, I have it set to use LTE right now, since I'm at home; however, were I too far from a T-M tower, I could use VoLTE (this is, in fact, explicitly supported by T-Mobile as a standard feature for this phone - even for their MVNOs - such as Tracfone)). Not perfect - however, blame the carriers for not following the MVNOs and allowing non-stock firmware; VZW, for example, REQUIRES stock-only firmware on their sold-by phones - their MVNOs don't. Do the other carriers - including AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile, Sprint, etc., have the same policy? I get WHY VZW has that stock-only firmware policy - their-in-house support folks know diddly about third-party firmware - how can they be expected to know anything about all the various sorts of third-party ROMs? MVNOs don't have in-house support folks the way VZW, etc. do -most of them don't have their own retail locations, either. (Tracfone, for example, is JUST starting to deploy branded locations.)

Has there been a workaround developed to sim unlock the tmobile s8 yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mweinbach:
nope, just the app.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
Hi,

Actually, there is an additional method, relying on the app. You can contact a third party unlocking service, which changes the status of your phone in T-Mobile's database, then you can use it in any network you want.

Specifically, I found about this here: https://www.unlockunit.com/blog/unlock-samsung-galaxy-note-8-using-unlock-codes/ ( I hope it's ok to leave this link). You will see that there's a section about a T-Mobile Note 8 over there, but it goes the same for the S8. Hope this helps!

Hey! I'm wondering how you achieved that. Is your app polling plenty of music websites/services?
[Android Apps and Games] Vladir95:
Yes, basically :)
[Android Apps and Games] paed808:
the first version I scanned on virustotal and it showed a detection of a bitcoin miner. why is that?

also, why the "record audio" permission?
[Android Apps and Games] zinou213:
Where to find downloaded mp3s please ?
[Android Apps and Games] ItsMeShouko:
UI is nice and it works just fine apart from a few bugs, but overall it's good. Here are following bugs that I encountered:

- When you pause music and use slider to seek forward or backwards, it will not work.

- I cannot seek back to 00:00 time duration.

- Sometimes same music is played 2-3 times at the same time, i.e. when I am listening to music which is at duration let's say 3:12, I will be able to listen duplicate sound which might be at 0:10.

I'll report more bugs when I find them.
[Android Apps and Games] Vladir95:
Thank you very much for this bug report !

• pause music seek & seek to 00:00 - fixed for 0.19.7 :)

• I was not able to reproduce this issue in now way, could you provide exact steps to reproduce? :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] anaya1213:

Latest version 0.19.8 app crashes immediately with an error. I attached a screenshot below. Won't bother will look for another app but this looks promising.
[Android Apps and Games] chossen:
can you make it so it goes by default to your library? otherwise nice app, can't open settings btw,

ooh and also play/pause does not work from the headsets (tried 2 pairs/ they work anywhere else)
[Android Apps and Games] Vladir95:
Thanks so much for the input!

thank you so damn much tdm, i was scared this phone would be developmentally dead
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mattx1002:
Just installed and it works...pretty alright!

Bugs:

-Wi-Fi range seems to have shrunk ten-fold (LTE works perfectly fine, so it seems to be a problem with whatever Wi-Fi module(?) is being used with the ROM)

-Can't hear anyone on calls (What you already addressed)

That's all I've found so far. I was able to install SuperSU v2.79, which is super dope, and I've tested it with my good friend Titanium Backup to great results. Thanks a whole bunch for all the hard work, TDM!

P.S.: If you're dumb like me, and you're pretty new to all of this stuff, follow this guide that I sourced from the Open GApps FAQ to install the ROM:
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
Glad someone else got it to work, and thanks for the instructions. Note formatting /system is not necessary, neither is wiping cache or dalvik.

If you want su, lineage has a flashable root package. Check on their site. SuperSU may work but it's not supported in any way.

I'll check the WiFi stuff, I probably missed a config or calibration file or something.

The in-call audio is probably an issue in the amplifier code. I just got that working yesterday, so no surprise there. Fix should be relatively easy.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
I need a log from stock and I don't really want to flash back and forth. Can someone do me a favor and get a log of a phone call using stock 7.1.1? Just run eg. "adb logcat >call.log" and then make a call, establish voice communication, hang up, and hit ^C.

Thanks!

I know this is off topic, what carrier do you have? I think my carrier didn't activate LTE for me at all.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:

I'm on AT&T. LTE works for me.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
Okay been working away on this. Got the WiFi MAC and the notification light working. Still haven't figured out call audio, which is the biggest show stopper right now.

Got a question though....

As far as I can tell, the notification light hardware only seems to support a single color at a time (red, green, blue). They can't be mixed to provide eg. yellow or orange. So, it can't do the typical yellow for the "medium battery" color. What do you people prefer for that? What does stock show?
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] mekzmaz323:
Thanks for your work again.

Stock:

Constant green when its fully charged (and blue blinking when notification arrived).

Constant blue when its charging.

Red Blinking when level is below 15%

In my opinion you can leave it like that.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MrWhite0429:
I agree. I'm fine with it being the same.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] CRAFTER0302002:
WiFi and lte

My WiFi is very bad and unstable. Also I never have more than 1 bar of LTE signal. And when I make a call others can't here me and I can't here them.. Those are my only problems.

Earpiece works now along with video recording. Everything's doing fine now.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jumpychampak:
The QR Reader in Whatsapp still has a distorted image (e: it works, but doesn't show the preview properly, it should be noted). Also, when taking a photo with the front camera using screen flash, the photo is taken properly but immediately darkens. I'll try to upload a screen recording if I can.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
I'm working on an updated camera wrapper that will hopefully fix the distorted images.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
EDIT: Mobile data seems to be broken for me. I'll investigate tomorrow. Be sure to backup if you flash today's build!

New build is up, check the OP. Changes:

Camcorder audio should be fixed. This uses the same changes that JoeGatto tested.

Camera preview aspect ratio should be fixed. I rewrote the camera wrapper to remove the invalid sizes before the apps get the list instead of after.

Offmode charging is sort of fixed. It starts up fine, but after the screen blanks, it never unblanks. I've wasted quite a bit of time trying to figure this out but finally gave up -- it's just not important enough.

Found a very big problem! Phone stops working during watching videos (Youtube App and MX Player local file, nothing else tested). Screen goes suddenly (after a few seconds) black and phone does nothing. Only pressing power button for about 10 seconds reboots it...

edit: it happens when pressing the Vol-down Button!!! No matter if you watch video or not! And this happens even when the screen is off!!!
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] marvelljones:

Any news or solution for vol down button??

Now i use my axon Like primary phone...
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
I'm working on it. I haven't found a solution yet.

It's a strange issue. The phone reboots when you press volume down from anywhere. Even in twrp or the first splash screen. I've never seen anything like it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] birrez:
Have you a old build whitout this issue??

I tried 15 DEC build after full wipe ...but nothing..
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] marvelljones:
It is very strange. Has anyone successfully went back to the previous build? I mean gone back and had the volume down issue disappear. I made a backup in TWRP but I don't want to bother wiping the phone and restoring if it won't make a difference.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
No. I even went back to stock. The issue remains.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] emc02:
So you killed our Vol-down button?! ;)

Well I am not an expert in Android developing, I have just a little knowledge about hardware development but for me this looks like something is programmed into some NVRAM, Flash or something like this that controls the basic "wiring" of the hardware buttons, so you maybe have reprogrammed the Vol-down button and pressing the button causes some "short circuit" or some special function in the phone.

The first press on the button puts the phone into a state with screen off and maybe some functions working in background?!

On the second press the phone reboots.

So it can't be just the "reset" function of the power button that happens on pressing Vol-down.

But I am sure you find a solution!

I went back to the stock b12, still if I press the volume down the phone reboots, even in a regular recovery. probably something burned down
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
I've been trying everything for the past couple of days, but the volume down button will not work. I even reverted the entire phone to 100% stock.

It looks like the Jan 15 build may have actually damaged the hardware. I don't know how, I've never seen this happen before. But I don't have any other explanation.

I've contacted ZTE and I will let you know if I find anything.

I'm also trying to figure out the problem with my build server. I cannot do any more builds until I can find the build problem and fix the server.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dreas74:
oh this sounds crazy. I can not believe that. give us an information when you can not reactivate your phone . i think together we can you donate a new phone.

iam back to the dec 02 release. i dont have the battery drain and for me the most benefit is:

- no blackscreen of death (from time to time with newer realeases)

- phone charging in offmode

only the cam aspect ratio is broken.

can i use the cam wrapper files from any later release?

which files i must copy?

thanks and we hope your phone can be fixed!
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] emc02:
I think you missunderstood something. "Only" the Vol-down buttton is strange broken. Everything else works good. But it's not recomended to flash latest build because it breaks the Vol-down button permanent even on reverting back to older builds!!!
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] repo_code:
volume down issue

Has anyone with the volume-down issue tried pulling the battery connector so the phone is truly 100% off? Maybe that would clear it up?

Unfortunately it requires a minor surgery on this phone to pull the battery. Still I wonder if that would clear whatever's in a strange state, or if the bad state is truly written to flash somewhere.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] marvelljones:
I'd guess it's truly written to flash since it occurs prior to the OS or recovery booting. But the battery thing could be worth a try. Too many kids running around my house for me to do it. No man cave, not trusting myself to do it when they're asleep because at that point I'm tired enough to make mistakes.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
This is a good suggestion. When I was at cyngn, I found that some of the circuits on the WileyFox Storm (kipper) do not fully reset until the battery is unplugged. If anyone cares to try, I would be very interested in the results. I am waiting to hear from ZTE before I go do surgery on my device.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] nten2:
And if you discharge to zero?
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] marvelljones:
That's almost never the same. Usually there's at least a tiny bit of a charge left unless the battery has gone bad. It might not be enough to turn the phone on, but there's still something left. Like when many phones/tablets/etc show 1% charge left, shut down, and then show a battery symbol with 1 bar left or something similar. Even after you get it to stop showing the "not enough power to boot" symbol, there's still a small charge left which may be enough to keep the settings as they are.
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] birrez:
I solved the vol down issue!!!!!

I totally discharged the battery...and then all works fine ...(I returned at 1215 build)

Try it...
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
Sweet! I've been running antutu all day to discharge in hopes this would fix it. :D
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] birrez:
I reboot the phone a lot of time until no signs of life...?
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] tdm:
Looks like this worked for me also. Yay! :D :D :D
[ZTE Axon 7 Mini ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] marvelljones:
A time I'll love being wrong! I'll be killing the battery ASAP!

Edit: Thanks to those that took the plunge 1st! It definitely works!
