New builds are up not a big changelog in this one as its mostly maintainance build with security updates

13.06.2019.

- upstreamed kernel to 3.18.140

- Updated to June 2019 security update

- Updated to May 2019 vendor (samsung side) security update

- bsp side performance updates

And here is a little behind the scenes of whats going on with development right now

I managed to get 4.14 kernel to boot on the s7 (serial console as of right now so it didnt boot to gui)

what does this mean? this means longer support for the device, performance improvements and better security

When will this be available for others to test?, Unfortunately not so soon as i said it only goes to serial console (thru uart) right now

and pretty much everything is broken just getting it to boot was a big step and ill try to get thing with that kernel sorted during summer

Also i would like to thank everyone who donated as it helps with the server costs which also helped with progress that will hapen, this rom will never

have exclusive group for donators like some roms and it will never become one of those paid roms a lot of people started releasing

But as stated previously donations are greatly appreciated as they help with keeping everything running

Google Camera

Hi!

What's about the Google Camera App?

When I turn around the camera in the app to make a selfie, the app crash.

When I try to make a video, I get a error msg.

Where is the problem?

Greets, Tobias.

I forced stop and disabled the default email app few days ago and just noticed I have no random restarts anymore. And my device is running smoother than ever. It was brought to my attention when out of nothing email app started to drain my battery. I had random reboots from version 14, sometimes daily... Now for about five days no reboots. For those with the same issue, you can try it, I hope it's not a placebo...

sdcard: 0 byte file size

I can see "0 byte file size" with different Apps with this

15.1 (including the new 20190613), too.

i.e. exporting "contacts.vcf" (with contacts-app) makes 0 byte

on intern and - in another try - also on ext. sdcard ---

while shareing all contacts to some file-manager gives

a complete file (vcard...)

with 20190613 my missing SIMcard-detect on startup

seems to be solved - thank you, Ivan

LineageOS losing WiFi connection

My LOS is sometimes losing WiFi connection.

Then, when I open the WiFi Manager, no network is visible, even if a lot of networks are there.

Only/best solution to fix it: Reboot the device.

First I thought it comes from AFWall+, but with my actual setup I have AFWall+ not installed...

I also thought about if it can come Magisk... but I don't know!

So can anybody (with Magisk, or without) verify it, or can verify that without Magisk it doesn't happen?

I add two screenshots about it:

---------- Post added at 05:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 AM ----------

Can anybody verify this problem?

I set up my device multiple times, but the bug persists and I'm pretty sure I have no hardware prob, 'cause other camera apps work...

Have anybody tested LOS 16 on S7? Is there the same bug?

Whats about other devices with LOS? Same bug there? A prob of/in LOS?

Irvan can you have a look at it, or do you already know it?

I attach two (German) Screenshots of it...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Tobias B. Besemer:
I had with my different setups of LOS on my device different versions of gcam, but Play Store updates always to the latest. So maybe I should try to deactivate auto-update for gcam, try to find a version that works and use it...

Anyway: GCam worked really fine with the stock image, I tried a lot of other cam apps (gcam is still the best in stabelising the cam) and none of them crashed...

So why crash gcam when others don't and what is missing/wrong/buggy in LOS that gcam work with stock but not with LOS ???
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Roberto W.:
u have tried the modded gcam like Mod8.3b_IDan_v3.3b_Oreo and followed the instructions step by step? else give footej camera a try.

I decided to use stock again for the moment because I can not do without a good camera app.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bruce the boss:
I do have the same problem and do also have Magisk installed.

Could that really be the reason for loosing the WIFI?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Tobias B. Besemer:
I'm using Magisk Nightlies so I often get updates of it...

In some times I had more lost of WiFi (daily) in others less (every some days)... I can just imagen 2 apps on my phone that have the power to interrupt LOS WiFi: Xposed & Magisk!

But on my actual setup I have Xposed not installed... ^^

Bugreport

Hi Ivan,

I got today (first time ever since I use LOS) a notification that a bugreport was created and if I want to share it...

I saved the report, a screenshot of the content of the archive I have posted here: http://imgur.com/gallery/rNOcoUl

Is this bugreport interesting for you for debugging ???

And if, can I send the archive to you e.g. by email, 'cause it should include private data... ?

Camera 2 API

Ivan,

I read in different article that I have to activate Camera 2 API for GCam, is this (still) right?

Shouldn't "LOS for Samsung Galaxy S7" use as much hardware features as possible by default ???

Also: Seems the user have to root LOS (SU) or use a Magisk Addon... Think it's "not fair" that the user must do this to have GCam when he can also have GCam on stock without root...

Next: I read that I should use the Magisk Addon (preferred) for it... But seems the Addon is now removed from the download list... :-/

Read, that Camera 2 API is just a build property, that must be activated... Right? Can't you just activate it by default ???

Greets, Tobias.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
You simply have to install normally. It does not require root in any way. Api 2 is already enabled on los

Sometime Wifi does a lot of try before connecting to my box. It works well with factory rom.

Any idea what could be the issue?

Edit: Disabling 5GHz on my box did the trick
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] 0x000eHx:
For me its the same, but I can't turn of the 5GHz WiFi of my home Router (I'm not allowed).

If anybody else did find a trick, please help us out :)

Config WiFi

What kind of router do you have?

What are the settings of the router?

LOS tries to connect to your fav Wifi. Prefer this way your closed privat WiFi over your open public/guest WiFi...

Have you set the same SSID for both bands (2,4GHz & 5GHz, privat)?

You should, to make a switch in your LAN easy...

Disabling the email app had done wonders. Can confirm this helps immensely
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] 0x000eHx:
I did disable the build in Email, Calender and Browser App. I use better alternatives.

My Router is one for internet over tv cable from my isp. Cant properly set this thing up, cause the settings are restricted.

The two wifi networks (2,4 & 5 Ghz) do not have the same name, but the same password.

What setting could I possibly change in my Router to help in this matter?

Mount/unmount file size 0 (with log)

I am trying to figure out if the reason for the sd card file size errors is the way the sd card is mounted. In this log I transfer a file in Solid Explorer and unmount/remount to get the phone to show the file properly.

I figured it's something to do with permissions and/or the way it's mounted since there's no issue in Oreo
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
I'm loosing connection I don't have Magisk. This is also very annoying as I use video calling a lot . This is happening on 5ghz connection I haven't forced it to use 2.5ghz shouldn't have to . But it would appear that the WiFi on the phone turns off then on?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
I decided to update the baseband & modem and CSC to the latest Samsung has. I think the CSC cause an issue with the internal storage . After I flashed all 3 the reboot was halted with a complaint about storage encryption. I don't use inception. This forced me to re-format internal storage. Think this was the CSC file. But this probably not a bad thing. This I'm hoping will fix my WiFi dropping\turning off then on. Will be testing over the next few days.

Current baseband G930FXXU5ESD2

My S7 is a G930FD. I don't use the second SIM slot don't need it. I have a SD card in there .

I have had 1 unexpected reboot so far that was using a camera app.

Apart from that this is looking very nice.

Sending a big Thank you to all the Devs and contributers for all the time you put in .
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bruce the boss:
Please keep us updated regarding this as I'm also loosing Wifi all the time and maybe this helps to solve this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
On the WiFi disconnecting problem I have found the disconnecting is random and affects the 2.5ghz and 5ghz. Any where up to 6 times an hour .
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Xnin47:
Go edit the WiFi you're connecting on and change the IP settings into static. Now configure the IP address (it's different per routers but you check the IP address of other devices connected and change the last number to something that isn't used). Gateway is the router (usually 192.168.1.1, but again it's different).

This is what I did for both my 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mammenj:
This ROM is much stable compared to all Pie ROMs and no rounded ui here :svetius:

Hope the devs continue to maintain it. Thank you devs and community.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
I will reassign the IP as suggested . I had set my phone to static IP a few years ago. I've used a high number this time. I'll continue to monitor the restarts on the WiFi. However this problem affects my phone on my friends WiFi that isn't a static IP. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Xnin47:
You can use still use the static IP option on your phone, even if the router isn't set to do just static IPs.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
I don't think the phone is allowed to choose it's IP as that's the job of the gateway\server .
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
Reassigning the static IP hasn't made any difference to the WiFi randomly restarting.

I decided to try Los 16 . because of the WiFi restarts. It seams 16 seams to puts the WiFi to sleep so the WiFi restarts are worse :(

Decided to update the baseband again to the latest for my region BTU. Will get back after I do.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
It looks like it's 1 app I've been using that's caused my WiFi issues. But updating baseband and BL isn't a bad thing. Any way it's my firewall that's was booting the WiFi off I have found Afwall. It's the damdest thing been using it for many years love the app .never lost WiFi till I swapped to Los. 15. It's a shame to cas it's easy to use. Not the antivirus as I thought it might be.trying ultra firewall now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Digger_m:
Wrong again wasn't the fire wall. I think it's something to do with the Los and build.props. On the WiFi advanced tab I don't see a "keep WiFi on" tab

I looked threw build.props for any power saving entereries. I didn't see any. I added this

ro.platform.has.sleeppolicy=true to build props and rebooted. Tested for a time. Then set to false + reboot. Then tested for a time . Then finally deleted it + reboot. Now the WiFi is stable and dosnt restart 6+ times an hour. It will go off in deep sleep generally threw the night when it's charging. I can live with that.

Recently upgraded from an early version of 15.1 Unofficial (don't have the filename) to 15.1-20190613. I'm very impressed with the improvements. Nearly everything works!

Only problems I had:

-No WiFi, USB tethering

When connect it shows up on all my computers or friends phones. However, I get an odd ip (gateway: 192.168.42.129, DNS: same) I'm unable to ping this address and I get no internet whether I'm connect to Mobile data or WiFi via the USB tethering.​

-Notification light sometimes shuts off while charging.

The last version I had did this constantly, this version is way more rare and random sometimes taking days or a week. Can be fixed with a reboot. Not a big deal at all.​

-Speaker Echo

When I put someone on speaker they hear the echo of themselves talking. On my side it will get quite when they are talking (maybe to help stop that echo?) So I just don't use the speaker option. Also, not a big deal but I thought I should note it.​

If I'm able ill get a logcat of these problems and post them.

Changes I love:

-Bluetooth Calling!!

This was completely unusable in the last version I had.​

-Normal Calling

People would always hear there echo when they called and I found I needed to disable google assistant and voice typing to fix it. Now I can use all those services no problem, no echo!!​

Thank You Dev! This is a great ROM! :good:
