Yes, I use LOS but occasionally I want to change to something like your ROM...

But I hate bloatware... so, kill everything, allow just image to boot :)

PS

U really do great work with this image (same as Grace 6.0.1). and thank you for making this ROM's.

Thumbs UP (pls, just ignore us - were little paranoid)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
The fact is, LineageOS can run without GApps while TouchWiz ROMs need it to boot.

Neither of you told me which apps are exactly bloatware in SEP 8.5 ROM for you;)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] g0didit:
I usually download and run few (all I can find) debloat scripts for samsung and if phone boot after that is OK with me, then after few days of usage I discover more leftovers and uninstall it manually...

so... if ROM cant boot without gapps, forget - NOT ENOUGH (for me, after I remove gapps ROM stuck on boot)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
Of course will your phone stuck at bootloop if you remove an important system app since TW's Android Framework expecting some google apps to successful boot. Don't ask me why, I didn't developed TouchWiz.

I could add a debloat script in aroma installer which will prevent these apps to get installed in system but idk which apps you exactly mean (just "gapps" is too general).

Not enough? I hope I didn't misunderstand your last sentence... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] g0didit:
As I said before, just ignore us... I don't use gapps, but, i twill be nice to check debloated ROM one u make script :)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
And as I said before:

I won't add this script without this information
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] g0didit:
You say it wont boot wihout gapps, so leave only gapps needed to boot, delete all other gapps and samsung apps... ALL (leave just file manager) even samsung apps witch will kill some funcionalitys.

A300fu restarting and overheating after making 2 consecutive phone calls

.This SEP 8.5 V2 is awesome with edge apps but After upgrading from V1 to V2,my phone restarted more than 20 times yesterday,i still couldnt login to use private folder,and AOD i completely turn off cos its overheating.accessing the theme setting under running services of developer option is grey out,with that i cant use paid theme from galaxy apps any more:D....i Love this V2 and i will keep on using it,hopefully there will be bug fix
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
20 reboots?:eek: could be caused by AOD. Well I mentioned here and in Aroma installer that AOD is unstable and may cause hard reboots. However I won't bother to fix AOD since our device isn't meant for it. I hope I don't have to say it again.

What do you mean with private folder? Do you mean private mode?

Regarding to your paid theme issue: Samsung patched force stopping theme center to avoid "cheating" test period of paid themes
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] myekstarcy:
Private folder is where pictures are kept for privacy issue.xXptototypeXx thanks I am contended.i have migrated back to v1.Although I lost my files during file restoration
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
So you mean private mode? If yes, no chance. Already tried to port it to SEP 8.5 but never seen in system (settings, status bar, etc.).

EDIT: Got private mode working now

How did you lost all your data? :confused: Did you flashed v1.0 over v2.0? If yes, bad idea...

---------- Post added at 04:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:09 PM ----------

this rom is very nice and cooler than lineage OS but anyone who deals with any software I think does not want to try to create software according to A300H.​

:confused:
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
Why do you think I don't want support A300H?

There are no TW-Nougat Kernel images available for other A3 variants. Even A300H, A300F etc didn't got TW-Marshmallow officially.

And please next time use normal font size.

Hello xXPROTOTYPEXx, I flashed your rom today and I noticed one problem. The private mode doesn't work on my phone. I was able to pick a password for private mode and when i try to turn it on it says: "Failed to turn on private mode. Please try again." If you know what the problem may be i'll be happy to listen to your advice. Thank you! :D

Thanks jura..now everything is working fine now including the touch light...thanks for the advise and of course big thanks to XxprototypeXx.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
Nope that's not normal. Your CPU probably runs constantly at 100% for some reasons. Check whether an app cause this problem else do a factory reset or update to v3.0 ;)

Can I flush Quasar kernel over hadesKernel? (and go back without losing installed rom)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
ROM has the latest hadesKernel version already.

Yes you can flash Quasar Kernel over hadesKernel or hadesKernel over Quasar Kernel.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] g0didit:
Yes, but, where I can download hadesKernel, to go back if Quasar Kernel dont work as intended :)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
hadesKernel v3 never got released separately, so there is no download link. The are only 2 ways to go back to hadesKernel:

1. Reflash the ROM and pick hadesKernel without factory reset

2. Backup hadesKernel in TWRP Recovery and restore it if needed

I've installed the 5.0 but i have some problems..

The main problems are notifications, in this version i always gets the heads up notifications which i hate, and i cant find any options to remove them.. Second, why the app badges are based on notifications and not on the messages? I mean when i recieve a message on telegram:

- In v4.5: if i remove the notification the telegram icon says that i have 1 message to read

- in v5.0: if i remove the notification the telegram icon says i have no message to read

There are options to fix this 2 problems? If not im gonna install 4.5 again
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] prototype74:
Google introduced heads up notifications since lollipop, so it isn't Sammy's fault that you get bothered from heads up notifications. You can disable them in settings or using an adb command.

Regarding to your other "problem":

You have used stock A8 TW N Launcher in v4.5. It checks for notifications from the app and not from Notifications area (SystemUi)

in v5.0 you probably selected TW Oreo ported Launcher in aroma installer. TW Oreo launcher checks for notifications in Notifications area. When you remove e.g. telegram notifications then apps badges will disappear too.

So these are launcher features and not ROM related problems.
