There is no single best ROM, and everyone has different styles. I suggest you start by looking at the threads of individual ROMs, they are all stickied, and taking a look at the reviews and feedback there, then checking the ROM features.

There is some difference of opinion as to whether BRE5 has addressed this issue. If you're not aware of what this refers to, pleaae check this thread:

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] s0nixx:
I would say 40% fixed, 60% improved. Its not 100% fixed theres still times where you can see it but its definately much better than it was before.

Im quite happy with this current situation and maybr in the future updates they will tweak this even further who knows.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] IndDoc:
I dont know about the black screen crush, but it has definitely screwed up the fingerprint sensor. It is extremely slow now, with a lot of failed recognitions.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Davey Dual Sim:
Never had that issue, UK Exynos 9+, Bre5 no impact
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Huey85:
Has fxed it but not 100%. I'd say it's improved, not a complete fix, but probably will be continually improved with further tweaks in future updates.

This was taken of my personal S9+ device with BRE5 installed, using the camera of my work S9 in pro mode to capture as much details as I can.. Alien Convenant trailer 1080p scene @ 00:43.

Also tried the hacksaw ridge "one more" clip as well, definitely much better colour output and no crushing of blacks. Tried to take photos of it too but because the scenes are waaaaay too dark it makes it impossible for the camera to really pick up how it actually looks on the screen.

Watched a few other movies and trailers and YouTube videos over the last few days and the banding is much less noticeable and doesn't interfere with the viewing of the videos.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Virgo_Guy:
I come across this with almost every phone with a FP scanner I play with after a dirty flash or OTA upgrade. Erasing cache in recovery and re-registering FP does resolve it most of the time and when not, as a last resort factory resetting and starting over completely fixes it.

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

I would say Post BRE5 black crush , color banding reduced to a great extent, in such a way that one would require to specifically search for it hard to see whats left to be fixed.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] sin4life:
whenever my ls997 (devdigital rom zv7, their rom thread is closed) (on sprint network) wakes up, it is automatically connected to data/LTE first, then i have to wait for it to connect to wifi.

is this normal behavior?

should i be concerned?

thoughts?

also, i dont get text messages unless my data is turned on. i have an unlimited data plan with sprint. i know i dont have to turn my data off, but i thought i should atleast get text messages when data is off (wifi is on), since it shouldnt be using data anyway.
[Amazfit] nanukee:
hello all !

i have a problem with my amazfit watch at the heart rate when i runnig. I usually run at 5 and a half minutes per kilometer and the clock does not record a pulse throw the run, and when i finish running the summry display shows that I ran the whole run (100%) at a rate of heating. Even when I increase the speed it still does not show a change in the pulse or its percentage.

On the other hand, when I run out sometimes at a pace that is slow for me, about 7:30 to 8 minutes per kilometer, he starts to show me the heart rate meter while running and in the summation he divides it into categories like aerobics, un aerobics, fat burning and e.g

What is the problem and how can it be resolved?

Is it a problem of initial setup and calibration and if so, how can this problem be fixed?

thanks for help
[Amazfit] lfom:
Try enabling continuous HRM: in the HR widget, tap on the graph to enable continuous mode. You may need to disable it when not needed because it drains more battery, of course.
[Amazfit] ajid1977:
Probabaly lagged on the real time screen? Have you compare it with the reading on the apps? How does it look like? Is it the same?

And 3rdly, you might want to check again you personal detail such as age sex weight etc on the profile in the Amazfit app.

As a runner, me too dissappointed with these heart rate meter reading. I don't event know the rage or this hr zone. Unlike garmin or starva.

Hope that's help.
[Amazfit] shadowcaster666:
Your strap may be loose.

Personally I find that for my Pace to get anything close to an accurate heart rate I need to be standing totally still. Every time I have used it for sport it's waaaaaaay off.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Bysler:
I have been eyeing this phone for a while now, mainly for the battery life. However, I have read on the Reddit forums about issues with lag in general everyday usage which theoretically shouldn't have in comparison with other lesser powered phones.

Have any of you owning this phone experience this?.

Appreciate your inputs!
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Kounjula Rahul:
Try this
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] zemrwhite:
Won't that significantly reduce battery life?

To answer OP, I have not really experienced lags, it happened sometimes while quick switching apps, nothing annoying. But reading user reports show there is something, probably related to user habits, installed apps, etc. N7+ software needs some polishing?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] dannejanne:
System animations are definitely not well optimized. Specially app switching makes it stutter a lot. Doing the trick mentioned above seemed to have helped somewhat with app opening animations but app switching is still stuttering as mad. Hope they fix it in an update. This phone surely is capable of being smooth all around.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] lotap:
I have experienced this. Stutter was huge while switching apps and going from home screen to Google now. After doing the trick mentioned in the second post it's much better. Still not perfect though.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Stransky:
No stutter here, running on O 8.1 May security update. 7+ TA 1055
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] CaptnBanana:
I'm on the same build (8.1), May Update and model 7+TA 1055. Definitely getting lag with swiping to Google app and multitasking. Also tried the disabling of the components shown in 2nd post. Can't see a difference. Will return it and try another 7+. Can't bear to give up yet, the rest of the phone, I like a lot...?
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Daanopy:
I installed the android P beta, and the stutter is completely gone. Also, on 8.1 i was experiencing a Little delay while closing apps, which is gone either. Although there are some minor bugs in P, i prefere P anyways.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] CaptnBanana:
I'm glad to hear that! I've also been watching footage on YouTube on Android P for N7+. It certainly looks smoother to me as well. I'm just to chicken to flash to P and flash back. Anyways I hope Nokia doesn't wait until P to start the optimisations. For now, I'm simply not using the Google app lol.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] hohassan444:
I am on Oreo 8.1....there is definite lag and hiccup in general performance..with SD 660 and pure android, it should be butter smooth.
[Nokia 7 Plus Questions & Answers] Bysler:
Thanks for all the replies so far. Seems like the lags are due to lack of software optimization and not a deal breaker issue. Here in Hong Kong it is selling for 315 USD, I think I'm gonna take that deal.

[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] rbaidwan13:
Performance wise rom is awesome . But there are some bugs.

1. Unable to record videos.

2. GPS doesn't work.

3. Video playback is laggy.

4. When you tap on edit option of quick settings in notification panel , screen goes black

for about 30 sec and phone becomes unresponsive.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
Thanks. I will look into these
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
Okay. Now i will answer a few questions and later add an faq section to the thread.

1. The edit quick tiles and notifications work just fine. It will freeze if you haven't flashed the cam fix. That's normal.

2. I didn't experience any crashes till now. Flash rom, gapps ans fixes needed. Then reboot. The first boot will take some time. Be patient.

3. The battery life is also okay. The default cpu governor is set to performance. Use kernel auditor and edit it to interactive, ondemand or bioshock as per your need.

4. Video playback using h/w codecs is laggy. Use mx player for the time being. I will look into it and see what i can do.

5. Wake with home button is not working. Flash the attached zip as a temp fix to get it working.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] rbaidwan13:

Sorry. RIL is tested on both single sim and dual sim devices and made sure it works.

Follow this post for more info and steps

and when reporting a bug, tell the whole story. otherwise i will have no idea what i am looking at.

Device model, Bootloader version & baseband version (use kernel auditor app for that), zips flashed etc...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
FIXES update

Fixes update:

1) Video playback using h/w codecs is working. If you face any issues, flash this!

2) For video recording using stock camera app (working upto 1080p)

add these lines to build.prop and reboot ( use build prop editor from play store or any other tool)

media.stagefright.legacyencoder=true

media.stagefright.less-secure=true

If you face any difficulties, mention it here and i will make a flashable zip.

Note: For playing the recorded videos, use mx player s/w codecs
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] xXxAlexiSxXx:
Where can I write the lines build.prop, at the beginning or at the end?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
Write it under camera.

Hello. Great work guys, i´m testing it and its amazing. Just some questions:

Is it normal to wake up the screen with navigation bar? I mean, when I touch back button or menu button it wakes up

How do I get root acces?

Thank you
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] thunderclapX:
Great rom

thanks so much for your work

But I facing some things in settings app:

1- developer options Disappeared and apps ops too

2- the icons in settings app change

I didn't understand what's that
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
The screen wakes up with hw keys. Checking on that.

For root access, flash magisk
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
Must be a glitch or something. I haven't experienced that. Try after a reboot. If it doesn't work, do a clean flash
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] thunderclapX:

I will do a clean flash
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] thunderclapX:
Hi i did a clean flash as you said and everything worked very good??

Thanks for you again
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Thankyou4allthework:

[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
If your baseband and bootloader are updated. Switch to AEX or any other Nougat roms. Everything will work fine.

what about other regions? some regions have roms updated in 2017
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
Yes. I use XSG region. Samsung didn't push the latest bootloader updates for some regions even in their final updates. So those people will have to use some other regions firmware to update their bootloader.

Should I try that one or flash xsg until my wifi turn on?

[MENTION=7589585]kickyvivi[/MENTION] bro ı using that rom 2 weeks. So smoothest rom.

"Device wakes with capacitive buttons" for any fix.

Just a problem for me.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
The hw wake keys is kinda good. Because once the device goes to sleep the capacitive keys are not active anymore. Till then you can wake it using the capacitive keys. So its not that annoying. It won't accidentally wake your device in your pocket .
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] Thankyou4allthework:
Yeah..

But the catch is that it reboots when in pocket and never goes to deep sleep. For me, this bug it's pretty serious. Hope you find soon a fix. Take care

The reboot thing is solved. Will update thread and link tomorrow.

Clock setting wrong

Hello,

I noticed another mistake.

The clock in the mobile phone is not set correctly. After booting the system, an incorrect time and date will be displayed. (01.01.2014) This time is also displayed in TWRP 3.2.1.

After the SIM card is activated the phone will get the right time through the network provider.

This sometimes leads to my sports watch, which is connected via BLE to the phone suddenly shows a wrong time when the phone reboots in my pocket.

It must be a phenomenon of this ROM as this problem does not occur with CM12.1. Here the time is correct in the TWRP.

Hi again. In the new builds it keeps random rebooting from time to time. I still think it's because the hw buttons.

Apart from that, there is no audio in VoIP calls.

Maybe someone else can confirm this too.

Also, audio overall is pretty low in comparison with cyanogen 12.1

Thank you for your hard work. Hope you will keep working. Cheers

I installed the blob update, and it looks better, I have samsung sensors.

but why do you forget magisk ?, sometimes the root is not there, you have to reinstall it!

Is good addon su from lineage os?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
Magisk is an additional package. You can flash that if you wish.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
The VoIP calls work in WhatsApp, but not in fb messenger. Its in my list but couldn't find out why.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Original Android Development] kickyvivi:
These happen after the hw playback fix, but it might also be due to something else. To be honest, no idea why. Couldn't find anything in the logs. Will see after the next update.

after the flash of the update blob I no longer have the problem, there is only the connection with the PC with a non-working hot spot, the rest is ok,gps,sim,data connection,ecc,ecc...,the problem remains of reinstalling magisk from time to time
