Sorry for the stupid question, but how to apply this fix? I've tried using this source instead of vibrator.c from hardware/libhardware_legacy repo, but there were the same issues.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] PolishVodka:
Should be as you said, replaced vibrator.c from libhardware_legacy Rom source. This code was the same for Janice from JB 4.2 and above as I remember. When I was made CM13, this fixed continuous vibration after Rom boot up on Janice.

Are u enabled vibrator driver in kernel config? Driver is diffrent than Codina's one.

Maybe something in build process. Try to remove first compiled binary in hardware/libhardware-legacy/libhardware_legacy.so and build again make <device> libhardware_legacy.

Vibration doesn't work mean totally unable or just keyboard vibration?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
Vibration is disabled totally on this build. But don't worry, it's a temporary solution I had to accept, so that I can work on other stuff in the meantime.

[MENTION=5695278]ChronoMonochrome[/MENTION] I followed the exact sequence reported in the main post, but I guess something must be wrong.

I started from a freshly installed LOS 11 by epirex, latest october build, everything wiped, then I proceeded flashing chrono kernel before going to flash UltimateROM and chrono kernel again.

At this point, as happening coming from stock 4.1.2 + CoCore R24, I can't get to recovery and instead obtain a bootloop that again need me to do an odin restore.

Am I the only facing this issue? doing something wrong?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] ChronoMonochrome:
It's possible that there's a bug somewhere in the current installation method. I will review this as soon as I finish working on the kernel stuff. It's not necessary to flash a whole stock firmware image each time after you lose recovery mode working, you only need to flash a stock kernel.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Recognized:
In my experience, after flash most of Epirex's Rom will have bootloop in samsung logo, if u don't want go thru odin.

Easier way is just need flash leggera rom and proceed to recovery/other rom.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Pdevo:
That's true, the problem in my situation is I can't get to recovery, so flashing leggera wouldn't be possible.

I solved following chrono suggestion, packing stock tar file with just kernel, so without the need of a full stock system flash from odin, but just the kernel/stock recovery.

Vibration fix

Vibration fix

Due to issues with an infinite vibration, a vibrator HAL was disabled on this ROM.

Until the next update, there is a fix to this issue:

install chrono kernel r5.8.2 or higher

remove file /system/lib/hw/vibrator.montblanc.so

reboot

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] Pdevo:
Thank you so much chrono, just installed your new update, it took so much time to me to install the rom (by latest CK twrp recovery) but anyway it finished and booted fine.

Now I will be using it for a few days, had to do two reboots to have everything set up and working (got some issues with browser, music app and file manager not starting after first boot, while media scanner started working after the second reboot).

It seems smooth to me as the build #1, for this little first impression.

Will take some time to use it and report :)

UPDATE 31.08.2018

Ok, so far I am using it for days now and I can say I didn't found major probles at all, I kept everything as much stock as possible and it is fine.

To me seems like wi-fi signal strength is a bit lower than what I was used to, but need further days to say this safely (wheater conditions can influence this).

Multitasking is globally good, had some little glitches some times, I think this can just be tweaked a bit indeed by the user, on the base on what's the use of his terminal.

Had some troubles with gps when on mobile network, like it took too much time to get the fix and aborted, while this didn't happened when on wifi connection (a-gps related?).

Anyway I don't found these some important or unfixable issues at all and I am very happy with this update, I am using you rom without google apps (Opengapps) and I can say it is just fantastic.

Thank you Chrono

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] hobs0n:
Hey there! I have a G4 Wizard (called Qtek 9100 here) and I opened it up a few weeks ago and installed WM6.1 Slim Edition on it, kind of good, faster sometimes, very slow sometimes. The most disturbing thing is that I cant get a swedish keyboard in it. And now my phone hangs (the screen just slowly "hangs" and blacks slowly out) so I thought I would try Jag v4 since it gotten some good comments by ppl here :)

My main questions is then, will I be able to get a swedish keyboard in some way? and whats the difference between With Ext ROM Enabled and Without Ext ROM Enabled? Without Ext rom, does it keep parts of the windows mobile slim edition rom Im using now? What is the best? SOunds safer to get a "clean install" but I dont know..

EDIT: already made a post asking about this in the Jag v4 thread but it seems its quite dead so I thought Id give a chance here too :)

Exynos, 246374. Why do they have to introduce 2 models and not stick with 1 for their flagship phones?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] AB__CD:
Qualcomm has a lock on CDMA modem patents, which is to say that Samsung can't build a working CDMA modem into the Exynos AP. To make the Exynos variant CDMA compatible, they would have to use a separate Qualcomm-licensed modem, which would both increase the cost and space needed inside the phone. They did this for the Galaxy S6 because they accurately judged the SD810 was a flaming piece of garbage, but for any other year, when the Snapdragon performance is basically equal to the Exynos in daily use (yes, even when the E8890 S7s left the S820-powered versions in the dust), they aren't willing to pay more and engineer extra space in the phones for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Superguy:
I always thought it sucked that AT&T/TMo customers were stuck with the same SD version as Verizon and Sprint simply because of the CDMA patents. I don't see why AT&T and T-Mobile couldn't just get an Exynos version for the rest of the world, and have a separate version for Sprint/Verizon and and other countries that use CDMA (albeit there aren't that many ...).

Granted, I don't know the numbers or patent laws involved, but one would think at least the the straight GSM version would benefit from greater economies of scale. Then for CDMA, it could use either an SD processor or a Qualcomm modem. I mean, is it really that much cheaper to pay for a CDMA license in EVERY SD version sold in the US and Canada, regardless of the network it ends up on, vs keeping the CDMA version as a niche product for the carriers/countries that need it? Or does Qualcomm have a few WCDMA/LTE patents in the US and Canada that forces Samsung to use SDs?

It reminds me of paying the "Microsoft tax" for a new PC when you want to run Linux and never Windows.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] AB__CD:
I don't think the CDMA argument is valid for Canada even, as up until the S7, they used the Exynos variant. I imagine that Samsung Canada was pressured by the American arm to switch to Snapdragon as a show of conformity, and that Canadians simply got the short end of the stick (well not this year, since the E9810 is quickly turning out to appear much worse in efficiency than the SD variant according to PA and AnandTech) as they get the snapdragon variant simply because they're next to the US.

I was going to take my SD version back because I cant get through a full workday on this phone without charging. Im a pretty heavy user but I could get a full day with my google pixel 2. I even saw reviews putting the S9 ahead of the pixel 2 and almost as close as the pixel 2 XL. This S9 is amazing in every way except the battery.

You cannot compare the battey performance on the s9 vs the S9 plus, exynos or snapdragon as the batteries have different capacities.

hey Force70, this is a little off topic but I see the Canadian flag and the fact that you seem to be pretty knowledgeable with regards to the Exynos S9 in Canada so thought maybe you could offer some advice.

I just bought an Exynos S9 (it is possible!) from PDA plaza (currently with XSG United Arab Emirates firmware) and I'm getting half the LTE speed on Koodo as I do with the same SIM in a Canadian branded Exynos S9. Do you know if there's a way to get around this problem?

I have read that it is possible to put a Canadian CSC on a G960F (https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s9/help/canadian-csc-g960f-ds-t3833751/post78029732#post78029732) or possibly I could use the hidden settings app to tweak the LTE band settings.

Do you have any experience with this or have you had this problem? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] force70:
Hey bro, ive been gtg with all my exynos devcies as far as LTE speeds go. Just as fast as the CAN versions Ive had.

You can csc yes which then you can have wifi calling etc but LTE is unrelated to CSC.

I have messed around with band settings in the old days s3, note 2 etc but not sure if this is even possible on the new stuff or not.

sent from my S9 Plus (Exynos) Pixel 2XL or Note FE
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] fattyspecial:
I was able to choose LTE bands with quick shortcut maker and hidden network setting. I think it might have made a difference but I'm not sure.

I think the problem with LTE and csc might have to do with carrier aggregation settings that come in each specific csc.

Which region's firmware are you using/have you had most success with? This S9 came with XSG (United Arab Emirates) firmware.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mig_akira:
Hey everyone!

I just got a Kindle Fire HDX 7. I'm looking to install the LineageOS 14.1, but I just wanted to hear some opinions about stability and speed - can the kindle handle Android 7 well? I hear some people complaining about wifi and bluetooth issues, and also some buzz on headphones, on other OSes, does this happen on the lineageos as well?

I skimmed through the original LineageOS 14.1 thread here on XDA, but the it is over 110 pages, so forgive me for asking if this has already been replied to there!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Short answer to thread title: Yes and Yes.

Above response actually applies to all custom ROMs for the HDX ranging from Android 4.2 to 7.1. From a speed perspective FireOS v4 is encumbered by numerous background processes (ie: Amazon bloat) that blog down the processor, consume memory and tax the battery. As for stability [MENTION=5749760]ggow[/MENTION] and the other ROM developers/maintainers have done a fine job ironing out the bugs in earlier releases. The choice of custom ROM is essentially akin to deciding what toppings to put on your ice cream. Obviously Nougat based ROMs (latest available for HEX devices) are both preferred and best supported.

There are a few issues to be aware of which apply equally to all custom ROMs:

- some apps rotate the screen 180 degrees from what one might expect; easy to remedy if it proves bothersome

- audio is imperfect but generally not objectionable (most noticeable with headgear)

- establishing initial bluetooth pairings can be challenging but there are workarounds; once paired devices tend to reconnect easily

- brief WiFi disconnects are most prevalent in mixed 2.4GHz/5GHz environments; they are annoying but not debilitating (and there are workarounds)

- forget about gaming; the GPU is anemic (applies to all ROMs)

While the above appears worrisome very few users return to FireOS as the benefits far outweigh the hick-ups.

Thanks a lot for the reply here and for all the help you and all the others give to the community!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Play Store crash can be triggered by installing GApps after the initial boot of Lineage or an incomplete wipe of the suggested partitions (system, data, dalvik and cache). Slim, AEX and RR tend to be less fussy about when GApps is installed. Raise a post in the appropriate thread if the problem persists. Typically an easy fix.

Slim is a great ROM as are RR and AEX. Really can't go wrong with any of the five Android 7.x ROMs available for this device.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
The GPU is weak on this device which limits the type of games that can be successfully played. Most low end phone have more gaming prowess. That said, custom ROMs will likey offer a superior experience given the more contemporary Android base.
