Hi !

Thanks a lot for your had work guys !

Disclaimer: I am not here to complain, just to gather informations :)

I have an 925F (S6 edge Intl) from Orange France. Baseband is G925FXXS5ERA7, I know it is not the one in installation instructions prerequisites (which is G925FXXU5EQI8).

I installed the ROM and everything like calls, text messages works (afaik), but the only thing that does not work is MMS (multimedia messages). I think it's an APN problem, I tried all default orange APNs and the one Orange helpdesk gave me: nothing worked.

So if I understand correctly: it won't work until my baseband is supported in the lineage ROM, is it correct ? If yes, is it planned ? if yes, any roadmap ?

Thank you very very much, specially U99DEV !

Bluetooth -no incall audio?

I have searched through this thread as well as read the information in this thread https://xdaforums.com/lineage/general/kb-article-troubleshooting-bluetooth-t3646969 but I am non the wiser as to how to fix my issue...

I seem to be suffering from issue '3' described in the KB article. My car audio is an Android head unit (MTCE GS unit running Oreo). I can pair the S6 to the head unit OK and I can stream (A2DP) media to it, however incall audio is not working and I get some odd feedback type noise on the head unit when attempting a call. I know a call is being made as I can hear the phone I am calling ring and if I change the audio output to phone or speaker the sound comes through the phone.

I can pair the S6 with a cheap Maxtek BT speaker I have and call audio works fine (as does streaming music).

I also have a HTC One M8 running Lineage 14.1 and this works fine with the head unit.

I was hoping there was a simple fix (flash a .zip...) for this but can't seem to find one?

Downloaded latest update of 1st of April, and flashed it dirty. Rooted phone with CFRoot and removed few system apps, and phone was runing good. Then I downloaded update, it said Install error in settings. So I flashed update throught TWRP and got errors, no launcher works and have security error in notification drawer about mining cryptocurrency. Any ideas?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] JeanCa84:
If I'm correct, BT audio is still buggy and a well know bug on all LaOS, RR or nexusOS.

---------- Post added at 06:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

Uhm, yeah. Don't do a dirty flash!! First you dory flash, then you rooted, after that you removed system apps. Then you flashed update (probably again dirty)

I'm not a fortune teller but thats pretty much asking for trouble if you ask me.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] :
Fixed by clean wipe + reinstall. But I have again that icon in status bar about dangerous of crypto mining, as it includes wallet and mining program? and how to disable notification without root?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] srbungle:
If you want to disable the persistent notification, run this command from a root shell (such as adb root / recovery or terminal app) setprop persist.lineage.nofool true and reboot the device
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] :
Does not work. Tried on local terminal, TWRP and not working. Any tips? This is stupid april fools joke
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] srbungle:
strange, I wrote "setprop persist.lineage.nofool true" on TWRP (advance/terminal) and just works.

and yes, it's a stupid joke.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] Arkymedes:
I'm so frustrated right now... Flashed 3 times today from scratch and every time I make or receive a call, once the call ends the phone restarts into bootloop. Don't know what else to do :(
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ADB100:
Worked for me too. Did it from the local terminal whilst Android was running (SU obviously). Reboot and the annoying pirate notification was gone. It will disappear with the next LOS update though. I don't know why they insist on these April fools 'jokes' - they have been doing it since the CM days. I don't know anyone who appreciates them.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
Define "from scratch"

Have not had any such problem(s) to date. Is it safe to ASSUME you wiped caches, data, dalvik, etc.. (in other words, EVERYTHING)? If not, your problem is likely there. Further ASSUMING you have good backups so you can wipe everything a few times before you flash and not lose things. Hope that helps. Good Luck.

This is what I'm talking about Instagram video playback - videos keep loading endlessly. Apps freezing like Music player, Instagram, Whatsapp, SystemUI. Gallery not showing pictures/videos and when this happens, no video can be played or picture open.

Solution to these problems is simple reboot but they come back often.

S6 Duos

I tried last nightly 2018-04-01 on my Samsung S6 DUOS with persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds

1. with Odin during Download mode (Volume down + home + power) uploaded TWRP (AP=twrp-3.2.1-0-zeroflte.img.tar)

2. in TWRP (recovery=Volume up + home + power)

2a. wiped everything

2b. installed LineageOs

2c. wiped cache & Dalvik

2d. mounted /system

2e. with adb changed /system/build.prop file (added persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds)

2f. rebooted

After reboot it finds no SIM. Without dsds (the default installation) it finds only the first.

I also tried to rewrite original modem.img but without any success. Do you have any tips?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] athlo:
Radio Log Compare

Comparing radio logs wih adb: adb logcat -db radio > radio.txt

This part is same (without dsds it finds just the first SIM):

Theoretically it should use for the second SIM preferredNetworkType=2 (just GSM, since dsds and not dsda), and Socket should have maybe not name 'rild2' but 'rild1'? :(

Trying to find something in LineageOS repository, but I'm definitely fresh-meat for this topic (finding in so huge repository).
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] athlo:
First attempt to fix Samsung DUOS problems

There are many and plenty of patches for other mobiles in LineageOS repository that one way or another change the value of

static final String[] SOCKET_NAME_RIL = {"rild", "rild2", "rild3"};
in
com.android.internal.telephony.RIL
in
android_frameworks_opt_telephony/src/java/com/android/internal/telephony/RIL.java
in
branch cm-14.1 of repository LineageOS/android_frameworks_opt_telephony

Typically they change it to something like:

static final String[] SOCKET_NAME_RIL;
static {
String rilSocketName = SystemProperties.get("ro.telephony.ril.socket_name");
SOCKET_NAME_RIL = rilSocketName.isEmpty()
? new String[] { "rild", "rild1", "rild3" }
: rilSocketName.split(",");
}

but for Samsung S6 it can be also changed in overridden method, since we use SlteRIL (from ril\telephony\java\com\android\internal\telephony\SlteRIL.java from

branch cm-14.1 of repository LineageOS/android_device_samsung_zero-common)

.. and then I have to try to recompile ROM :( At least we are lucky, that there is how-to-build page on LineageOS web.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] :
Hey, how did you pull up logcat? I want to do it also, but for older phones that I have laying arround :p
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] salehin4070:
It's a shame that we don't get it officially. But still you did a great job of finding these out! Kudos to you. :good: And if you decide to compile the ROM then please please do upload it. As a fellow S6 Duos user I would love to flash your modified Lineage OS ROM. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
Absolutely !!!!

Have a Duo as well as a single SIM unit in my house. Having a build that would support dual SIMS would be a wonderful thing, indeed.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] athlo:
logcat

As you can see logcat is part of adb (Android debugger, part of Android platform tools), at first you need to activate Developer access in your mobile (tap 10 times on Build Number in Settings), than you need to connect your mobile to computer on which is adb already installed. then you can run logcat from command-line / terminal. A can't share links but it is easy to find how to's.

logcat can be used without "-d radio" to look for common log file or you can specify other log's database name.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] xSynatiC:
So..i hope i'm not completely stupid. I rooted and flashed my S6 with this ROM. (SM-G920F carrier unlocked)(Coming from stock)

My only problem is that i miss my Stock Camera app. I've tried to install countless versions without success. I even tried to install them as Systems aps via lucky patcher, again no success. Wether i try new versions or old versions. Has anyone an idea how to fix it?

Btw some versions say it is not compatible, some say that the package is broken.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
NO, you are not.

Have a look in your build.prop for the line for ro.config.tima. If it is not there, add it. If it is set to 1, set it to zero. Fixes a bunch of Samsung Apps that won't run on rooted S6 with the KNOX bit tripped on stock ROM, and seems to work with many things when bringing stock apps over to LOS. You can find the APKs for all of that stuff at the Sam Mobile web site. Good Luck (and if it works, DO post a reply, please).
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] krokanic:
Many changes in next build, can't wait to try it...:D

[MENTION=7315364]xSynatiC[/MENTION] i am also interested if the samsung camera app works on LOS, but i didn't find anything about it because it is not ported (yet) to any AOSP rom...
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] xSynatiC:
So i added the line and restarted my phone so far so good. Sadly trying to install the apks resulted in the same error as before. I just got it once more to install with the proper Icon but it instantly crashes. I am yet to find AOSP ported Camera apps from samsung.

This whole process is tricky for me.. on one side touchwiz cripples the phone but the Camera app and quality is top notch.

On the other side LOS makes this phone so fast and fluid but can't compete with the camera App/Quality at all. Those two are of course the most wanted for me.

---------- Post added at 11:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

sadly without success. I wonder why no one managed to port the TW Camera to aosp. But hey i know nothing about it so i shouldn't judge ;)
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] MetalIris:
You're honestly wasting your time. If apps could be ported they would be by now. Please keep things in this thread relevant to the Rom itself. Not the apps your attempting to port (which will never work.) Just ends up flooding the thread. [MENTION=5759239]TheMadScientist[/MENTION] might want to look over this make sure things are in correct/relevant threads.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nkonsta:
Maybe I did something wrong but after installing the ROM people started complaining that they hear their voice when they speak to me, like an echo. My guess is that is has something to do with with the noise cancelling mic, since when using headphones all seems to be okay. Anyone having a similar and if possible any workaround?

(BUG) Lineage crashed after phone call while music playing via bluetooth

Hi,

As written in the title, my phone crashed at the end of an incoming phone call, while music was playing on the stereo system via bluetooth. After that, the phone was stuck on the lineage boot screen for at least 20 minutes so I used the forced reboot and now it's working again. Phone battery was 5 percent as it turned on.

warm regards

Have you already flashed the fix for audio problems? You can find it in the OP.

Stuck on Samsung screen after installing + rebooting

Hi guys, for two hours now I have been trying to get this ROM running but apparently I am failing.

My last setup was a custom ROM: XtreStoLite 2.4 Lollipop Android 5.1.1 (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60390064&postcount=3). Successfully rooted and with updated TWRP 3.2.1.0.

I did a full wipe/factory reset, installed the latest nightly build (lineage-14.1-20180401-nightly-zerofltexx-signed.zip), wipe dalvik/cache and rebooted. After that the phone seems to be stuck at the Samsung screen (the black and white "Samsung Galaxy S6 - powered by Android"), and it does not get to the LineageOS boot logo. The only way out of this is to reset the phone by holding volume down + power button and then go back to recovery with volume up, home + power button.

I then tried re-installing the .zip file several times. Even tried last weeks nightly (20180325) but that didn't help either. I was able to successfully install and boot into the old ROM again, though. So I'm not completely incompetent. :) I'm probably missing something obvious here... because I have not found anyone else reporting this issue. My apologies for being a noob! Please point me in the right direction...
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] krokanic:
You must be on this nougat firmware...
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
Or , you could try THIS ......

You are probably missing the dm-verity flag change. Flashing from TWRP worked for me. I am ASSUMING you have the proper bootloader, etc... Further ASSUMING you don't care about the Knox flag or have any data you can't recover form elsewhere that you are trying to save. I would hold out long enough to avoid the flap over the 01 April build and the "practical joke" the LOS Team placed in it. Download the 09 or 10 April build (still pending out there). Slap it on a USB stick along with the root add-on and your preferred GApps set (I like nano but I am a minimalist). Some kind of USB to micro adapter and you should be good to go. TWRP might balk at recognizing a USB stick but you can MOUNT the storage device. Wipe EVERYTHING and flash. As I said - worked for me (and I can be a bit of a klutz). :silly: And if THAT fails, pull the latest stock ROM from the SAM Mobile site, flash it into place with ODIN, make sure THAT works, and then start over. I was starting from the most current stock Nougat build with the most recent Samsung updates, so that is also likely to make a difference. Good Luck.

Slow connection & creepy browser

I've encounter the same problem, not in Twitter app, but with default LineageOs browser, when I had very slow or no connection. Then it was "locked" and I could load no other picture till I've restarted all browser's windows and my signal got better.

Try to install another internet browser, set it as default (like Chrome and then in Phone settings look for Default applications). Maybe it helps, but if you have low signal and no-WiFi connection then there is no help, and you need to get better connection.

Whatsapp Video Call not working

If I call someone with a whatsapp video call, the other person can hardly understand me und hears an echo of his own voice. Is this a known bug? I installed the zip, that ist mentioned on the first page (Audio Problems), after that, the problem became even worse...

Should i try another kernel (which one?) ?

I use the newest Version of TWRP an flashed the newest Version of LineageOS an GApps micro.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] NotSoSavvy:
I have this ROM installed its showing OS update for 14.1 April 9th. Is it safe to flash this? Do I need to wipe cache and system beforehand if so?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] MetalIris:
You can dirty install. Not sure if it works over ota yet, if not fixed just flash the update normally as I say no need to wipe anything.

---------- Post added at 08:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 AM ----------

It's a known issue unfortunately. No full fix just yet. No kernel doesn't change anything related to that dude.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] lapizzamaster:
Does it work on SM-920I?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] iOSrenegade:
Updating to the mentioned Nougat firmware did the trick. I had no problems installing LOS after that. Thanks!
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] krokanic:
Thanks for reporting;)
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] Vevinni:
how work a heartbeat sensor on this ROM? I should again install Samsung Health?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
Yes. You can find the APK for it at the Sam Mobile web site. ALSO and ESSENTIAL You must add a statement to your build.prop file:

ro.config.tima. needs to be set to a value of zero, or the app won't launch at all.

Good Luck.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] Vevinni:
Thank you, it was really an exciting question for me since I did not dare to install another ROM because of this. I often use this sensor
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ADB100:
Google Pay?

The NFC chip/driver in the S6 supports HCE so we should be able to use Google Pay with this ROM?

I uninstalled root with the 'addonsu-remove-14.1-arm64-signed.zip' file and verified I no longer had root, however Google Pay complained about the device being either rooted, had an unlocked bootloader or a custom ROM so refused to let me add a card.

I also tried the Santander banking app and this says the phone is rooted.

Anyone using Google Pay or any banking app without issues?

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] athlo:
Oh, I'm to slow.

Finally I'have build my own ROM of LieageOS 14.1 (from repo 14.1), found way, how to go with Exception "no libsec-ril.so" to start that ROM to see that my ROM compiles with probably another libraries (too new or too old ;)) .. have to find those old logs (mark: allways upload whole log too :) )

Logcat have in this new situation too few informations about what is really going on.

But I'm still looking for some solution so we can go with both SIMs on DUOS models.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
Power Saving Options

Both power saving modes seem to perform as expected. Given the notoriously poor battery life profile of the S6, this is a very good thing. My question is whether or not it would be possible (ANYTHING is "possible" but is it easy enough to do ?) to be able to have the device default to the Ultra power saving mode rather than just the less drastic mode when the battery dropped to a specified level? If so, how ? And thanks again to our dev. So far, this ROM is proving to be excellent.

hello guys

few days ago i loglessly reported random wap and insta freezes on video playback etc

i installed this rom over official 6.0 rom.i couldnt get ota uodate since i rooted my phone

should i install latest firmware from sam mobile then reflash los?

would the twrp backup of this present system work on the newer firmware?theres too much apps and i dont really have.mich time to restore apps via titanium or something and reconfigure all the settings,it takes me 3 or 4 hours to modify everything

However I get random reboots. This in of itself isn't a great drama but when it boots up it is stuck at the animation. I need to hold the buttons down to force it to reboot again and then it's fine for a period of time.

The ROM works flawlessly except for some random freezes during Instagram's video playback. The only solution is rebooting the smartphone... any idea?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] nezlek:
Officially no. Unofficially, probably not, but ......

It does not - officially. While most of the physical components are identical and the differences "should" be limited to the LTE bands supported, the 3G also misses one band because you seem to have a North American unit, and the stock ROM, you are taking a big step into uncharted territory if you try it. If you are willing to do that, I would start by flashing a current (Nougat) ROM intended for a 920F, and you can find them on the Sam Mobile web site. If and only if EVERYTHING works to your COMPLETE satisfaction and ability to confirm it, you MIGHT consider flashing the LOS ROM. I HOPE I have thrown in enough disclaimers and cautionary warnings here since you could turn the thing into a fancy paperweight doing this.. And even if you DO get it installed and it appears to be working, there could be all manner of subtle things waiting to ruin your day. Still, the only way to be 100% SURE would be to try, so if you do, make sure you have a few good backups and an intimate acquaintance with how to reverse the experiment if you must.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ADB100:
I managed to get the Santander banking app working by clearing the data from the app (with SU removed obviously) - I guess uninstalling and installing would have also worked.... However Google Pay still refuses to work. After a bit of searching it appears that SafetyNet is failing with a 'CTS Profile Mismatch'. A bit more searching points to trying Magisk to try and mask the issue? I was hoping there was a less drastic fix?

I have Lineage 14.1 with stock OpenGapps and a bunch of fairly standard apps installed. I also flash a .zip that copies a ringtone to /system/media/audio/ringtones and a compass apk to /system/app/compass.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] MetalIris:
Try using MagiskHide Props Config module. Supposedly fixes cts not passing. But I also you're not looking to use magisk if possible. Simple answer is to do what you want you need magisk or go back to a stock based Rom. Check android pay still works after a Knox trip as well
