Thanks for the ROM ! :)

All work fine.

Exept two things:

- I've read on this topic than the battery life is good. But, When I use the phone, I can loose 5-10% in 10 minutes. It's normal? I need to calibrate the battery? Because I come from SuperMan-Rom and I don't remember losing as much in 10min (even at night in airplane mode).

- The LiveDisplay has a bug with the night mode, when I turn on night mode, the screen become orange, but the blue elements stay in blue, navigate becomes confused because of that . I looked on the topic and nobody talks about it.

Sorry if the question has already been asked or addressed, and no problem with bluetooth. :p

Thanks for your help ! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] lladwein:
The phone needs to settle down what means you have to use it for two or three days to get a stable battery. Also it depends on your usage, Battery health, GApps Package ect... and many more things.

for example: my SoT: 5-6 on a 16H circle.

The Live Display "colors" the display in general in a "red" tone to reduce the "blue light", it doesnt tone the colors itself (blue gets to red or similar)

You are always welcome :)

Greetings to everyone. Please I'll need some help. I really have loved this rom for a long time now and I want to install it but am afraid if it's bug free and also if it's camera is very good. Am on stock oreo using zero camera app and I just don't want to miss having a beautiful camera but then I really want to use this rom. I'll be glad if someone can help me. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Matty1993:
Camera is never going to be as good as stock camera as lineage is a AOSP rom wheras the stock is touchwiz based and use theyre own camera source, ive been trying to intergrate it but i reckon i have a better chance of winning the lottery not giving uo tho ive seen on samsung dev they have released the camera SDK in zip or rar format which i downloaded and contains quite alot of libraries and .jar executables along with a guide for building using the SDK supplied by samsung DEV so not losing hope yet :p 1 day maybe until then if you do install just use Gcam or a similar 3rd party camera app
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Iruwen:
Gcam is probably better than anything else but still far from Samsung's original software. My wife's S7 is on stock and they must use fairy dust and unicorn poop or something to achieve that quality under low light conditions.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
Increasing shutter time gives good low light performance if you're on nexus 6 config or hdr+ enchanced with pixel config, that's the least gcam can offer right now ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
Ok for the battery. :)

For LiveDisplay, I use f.lux works better, I also don't have this problem on the Samsung ROM with the blue filter. And I didn't see this bug on Youtube videos before installing Lineage.

We will see if it is corrected in a next release. :)

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] gruuvin:
If camera performance is important to you, then you should NOT use anything but a stock ROM with the stock Samsung camera app. None of the others will work right for you. Some produce worse looking pictures, some lock up right when you need them. Sorry, you cannot use this ROM and have the quality of your original Samsung camera.

All that said, you can always (upgrade to stock Oreo) install TWRP, make a full backup, and then install this ROM, and try the various modified GCam apps. And if you can never be happy with the performance of your non-stock setup, just go back to your backup.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Hello71:
Decrease system partition size

Thanks for the ROM!

One small request, can you shrink the system img size? I have resized my system partition to 1.5G, which leaves over 200M, which I am pretty sure is big enough to fit at least gapps pico. however, updater-script already has resize2fs, so if you have a larger system partition, it will automatically use the whole space already.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] lladwein:
why did you resized the partitions???
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Hello71:

Question about functions.

Hi,

does pedometer (stepmeter), hartrate meter, barometer and USB OTG work properly on this ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] hasmar04:
I have tried to get heart rate working to no success. I would like to know if anyone else has though.

Not sure about other sensors, haven't checked or needed to use them.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] AlbinoBoi:
Heart Rate Sensor doesn't work, as samsung keeps the source code. If you're into those kinds of Things, I wouldn't recommend using aosp roms like this one
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tofueatsbread:
really? it used to work before.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] IneedAbetterUsername:
As far as i remember otg should work fine

About hearth rate sensor,i remember someone explained how to install samsung health app etc and what tweaks have to be made in build.prop
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tomogo:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tomogo:
Yes I have it, but I was thinking about AOSP ROM and the section "Not working" is empty, but it is not true.

So I probably stay with Official rooted Samsung ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tofueatsbread:

I dont think it's THAT serious for all of the users. Are you gonna use this ROM anyway?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] maafeustyle:
Is anyone else having a Bluetooth issue with cars or being on speakerphone?

or is that an ongoing problem?

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Tralien:
Known bug for even month? I go back to los 14.1 :( i love this rom, but i need a working phone

Rr 6.1 same problem of course
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] maafeustyle:
I love this Rom, such a cleaner look, and more responsive.

- Speakerphone

- bluetooth issue

- mirrorlink car connection (works on stock rom, however no option available and phone doesnt link)

those are so far the only issues i see

I do notice the back camera is shall i say, perfect with taking photos on the stock application on the new build. Not sure if anything was changed, the front facing "selfie" camera is still a bit noisy on the quality. Will look into GCAM or something along those lines for the time being.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] lunanabanana:
Hi all, I'm quite new to all of this. What would be the safest way to update this rom without root? Can I update without root and keep all of my existing data, or is rooting and using titanium backup my only option? Thanks in advance.

Hi [MENTION=4610599]Ivan_Meler[/MENTION]

The reboots / bootloop are initiated during charging (from charger, not from USB ports)

I'm not sure if you'll get anything from this log, but it ran from plugging the charger in until the reboot / bootloop cycle started. To break the cycle I had to wipe dalvik, reinstall and allow the phone to charge in recovery above about 25%.

Thanks for checking this out, if you get a chance.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Matty1993:
I really dont think it should be listed in the not working section due to it not even being implemented into the lineage builds all that you mentioned above has to do with stock samsung touchwiz .apk's lineage is not touchwiz it is AOSP (Android Open Source Project ) the only way it can be listed as not working in my opinion is if it has been implemented in the build and is failing to work.

Thanks

Matt
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Iruwen:
The 08/29 build makes me happy, I can use my phone without random unexpected **** happening.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
Both barometer and pedometer are working so yeah it really shouldnt be listed, Or else i might as well make a list of all samsung apps/features that were never present on aosp
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] JeroenED:
[MENTION=4610599]Ivan_Meler[/MENTION] I think that the current not-working list should be updated as in adding "Bluetooth HFP" I think there have enough reports mentioning this. Myself I can confirm this

I think it will also be a step for other (experienced) devs to provide a log as they maybe only that phone as backup and don't see that in the list.

Myself I will provide a log somewhere this evening (8pm Brussels Time) but please don't judge as I'm just a user who leeches on the work of others and tries to provide something here and there.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Waza_Be:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] ekulnitsua:
I would say

"fast charge {causes bootloops on some variants)"

Needs to be in there too. I was ready to smash my phone into the wall until I pinned down which charger was causing it!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Oshuhso:
Camera doesn't work

For me, the Camera-App or photo functionality in general is not working properly. Photographs taken look like they have been post-processed using unsharp masking on an extreme level (compare attachment); once focused using the system app, the app becomes completely unresponsive -- sometimes the whole system crashes and reboots.

When I take photographs using an other app, the same happens, what indicates that it is a system or even firmware thing.

Anyway, when I use OpenCamera, there is a magic Use Camera2 API button. Utilizing this, the photographs taken look like they're supposed to be.

The two attached images have been taken using OpenCamera with and without Camera2 API (since I can't take a single photograph using the system app with flash).

P.s.: Build 15.1-20180829-UNOFFICIAL-herolte
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
It's normal.

Samsung Camera = Closed sources

The camera quality is much better on Stock rom.

Personnaly, I've install Google Cam and the quality is a little better.

I don't have the link, check on the previous page.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Oshuhso:
Well, it kind of doesn't work at all and furthermore crashes the OS. I'm not quite sure whether this normal.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] gruuvin:
Look at his side-by-side comparison. I have the same issue. The stock camera app is nowhere close to 'normal'.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] J.Naw:
THIS IS THE EXACT ISSUE IM HAVING. Its not because samsungs sources are closed, if so all photos would look like crap. (though it does contribute in some instances)

First picture taken on snapchat or any other camera app as soon as its open, photo is perfectly fine. Second time its taken, it has the sharpened processing on it.

Ive got a drive folder that explains this with logs and more photos: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1c5oRWYzPKrTNWnfgaCzKBRu0jT6fRrWN?usp=sharing

open camera does this issue with API 1 and does not occur with API 2

Videos also have an annoying metallic ring/fuzz to them.

Glad to know its not just me :)

PS: I do not experience crashes when focusing the camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
I'll just leave this here https://www.xda-developers.com/came...opers-make-hardware-work-without-source-code/

And if you're wondering if you're the only ones having it, then no, everyone using los 15.1 on s7 has it. Though personally I couldn't care less since I always use gcam to take pictures then upload them on Instagram and other platforms besides snapchat.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] J.Naw:
Good read, I guess I misunderstood.

Well anyhow. The camera wasn't having as bad of issues back in the stalemate build (the build while Ivan was without a phone) so maybe going back to whatever he had done then would be a step forward in terms of camera operation?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
That's definitely just placebo effect. There hasn't been any changes in terms on quality of camera performance on 3rd party social media apps. Stability-wise, that's not a good move also.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] JeroenED:
Hi all,

There is something else that I'm missing in this build. I don't know how it's called but I'll try to explain.

In 14.1 when the phone is booting and it was almost booted the vibrator gave a small shock (appr. 0.1sec) to notify "I'm done". I'm not sure if this is pure lineage 15 or AOSP 8 that removed this, but that was so nice I'm missing this now.

Is there a way to re-enable this (eg. Via build.prop)?

Jeroen

Notice after re-reading for errors: please read without thinking about watching p***hub. It feels a bit wrong wording right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tofueatsbread:
as far as i know, i used 9/9 build yesterday and that "vibration" is still present on boot. perhaps you changed some options under "Sounds"? though i dont think that would affect the boot vibration

So.. I thought ill try to install this rom with gapps again. S7 with sony lensens. Installing rom is smooth, but nomather what version i use of opengapps ARM64 8.0 from pico to mini to stock to aroma, they hang/getting stuck when i try to sign into google at the checking info screen :(

I tried to clear the cache of serveral playstore and service apps, but nothing worked

I have wifi/LTe, i have this problem only with this rom!

As i said in OP opengapps have issues with some devices nothing i can do about it its present on other devices too, Try a-gapps from op

It is all a huge mess in my situation. I had it working for a moment, this by using the google installer.apk. I could sign in ect, all was fine.

But since i had alot of bloatware installed i did a wipe and started over, but then couldnt get it right anymore, most goodle services stopped working ect, so iot was opf no use.

I dont know how i fixed it the first time, but this isnt working for my s7.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] :
Very good news. Thanks for your hard work!

One question. If the most parts (or everything) are working, will you add LineageOS customization features?

And i don't know why, but i can't use gmx mail. I tried blue mail, too. Both are laggy and i have to force reboot my phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] shaggyskunk:
To get Root Access - Just Flash SuperSU v2.82 SR5 ?

FYI - Even without Root Access You can use MatLog from the Store without Root - Just follow the instructions on how to use adb commands.

adb commands can be used with several apps that would normally require Root ??

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
I always had this problem on Cyanogenmod with my old phones.

It may be a bug with the default camera, on the GCam application, I don't have this problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] gruuvin:
Footej Camera vastly outperforms this LOS camera and even GCam, it seems.

I have Idan's 3.3 version of GCam, and I've just done some side-by-side comparisons of photos and videos from GCam and Footej: Gcam video freezes in places, and I'm not sure if it's a recording or playback problem, but Footej Camera video works well and its photos are cleaner with better detail. I tested this on a sunny landscape of distant trees, where the details of leaves are better with Footej. Colors are similar for both.

I REALLY like LOS, but I'm not totally sold on keeping this LOS for daily use, because of issues with Bluetooth, brightness, call volume adjustability, and mostly the lack of camera quality attainable with non-stock ROMs. So, I think I may try the Superman Oreo ROM today, and see if I won't have the reboot issue others have with it, and see if the stock camera outperforms two passable camera alternatives that work with this ROM.

If Samsung stock camera layers don't noticeably outperform GCam/Footej on LOS, then I may reload my LOS backup, or wait and follow this thread to see if the other issues people keep talking about are addressed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] AlbinoBoi:
For me, gcam is almost as good as stock camera, I can't really notice any difference. Also, which issues are you having with brightness or Bluetooth? (Besides calling)

Additionally, My battery lasts so much longer than on stock (I can make it through the day (about 15 hour cycle) whilst I had to charge my phone midday on stock samsung), which is more important than camera in my opinion and the main reason I switched to LOS.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] OrenGazala:
Hello Ivan and thank you for your effort building that rom.

Is Bluetooth calling will be fixed in the next builds? This is really important for me and I can't wait to try that rom on my phone.

Thanks!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] JeroenED:
I checked out the settings in sounds but outside a "vibration on charging" nothing to find. Maybe our boards are different that causes this, but to me it's just something I'm missing and not a high priority issue.

This might be something to investigate as it might have other consequences in other parts of the code, but so far nothing (outside BT HFP) that's I can't use.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] gruuvin:
When auto-brightness dims the screen because of low ambient light, it dims it much further than stock does; so much so that it becomes difficult to see the screen, and I tend to like a dim screen to save battery and my eyes! This is even on the latest build from a few days ago. The bluetooth issues are being reported almost every other post.

Have you tried taking the same pictures with GCam and Footej? I'm curious what others my find. I have not tweaked my GCam settings at all (or my settings in Footej).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] DonAndress:
You don't buy S7 for battery performance, you buy it (or any other Galaxy S model) especially for camera. All other flagship phones have more or less the same parts/chips used. It's the camera which stands out. IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] AlbinoBoi:
I never Said I bought it for battery performance, only that battery is better on LOS. I bought it because I got a cheap deal 2 years ago

---------- Post added at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 PM ----------

Bluetooth calling issues are being reported, yes. Other than that, Bluetooth works perfectly for me, my question was, wether you have problems other than calling. Interestingly footej doesn't work very well for me (has same unsharpened effect like normal camera) but gcam looks close to stock samsung. I don't use adaptive brightness, so I didn't notice that
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] J.Naw:
I want to agree but something definitely changed after that build. (I understand 100% with the stability side of things though, just spitting out ideas here). It was around the time Ripee came in and helped the builds with his sick fast computer. I've got old logs comparing the two, but maybe it was LOS source and not directly Ivan as it was a 07/11 build or something where Ripees was a 07/13 build. Ivan's day 11 build did not have the bug in 3rd party apps where as ripees build did. I reported it to him with a log, and every build by Ivan after that date had the bug.

I guess maybe its a good idea to just wait it out to see what Pie brings to the table.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
Which is why we use modded gcam on los.

Also, not everyone cares about the S7's camera performance when they bought it. Stock camera is too soft anyway lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] DonAndress:
I believe there's a mod version of the stock Samsung camera app on XDA. Lol...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
A mod which only boosts jpeg qual to 100% on free version. You can only tweak the cam app if you pay for the *paid* playstore app. Lmao no thanks
