Trying another file manager (CX file explorer, not my usual solid explorer) I've managed to write on SD card.

This still not explain the bug in solid explorer (yes, I've checked permissions) neither why some apps seems to not being able to write on SD.

You definitely have done something wrong with your ROM.

15.1 is not abandoned I guess

Gesendet von meinem SM-N935F mit Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
It isn't abandoned. There are minimal bugs on 15.1 but the rom has been stable for majority of its users. Problem like yours are most likely user error as no one has complained about such issues. Also, your query will not be supported if you use magisk (especially magisk modules) and/or substratum.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Nevaran:
What do you mean not supported if I use magisk?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
Magisk can cause issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Nevaran:
It never caused me any issues before. Plus AdAway isnt installed from Magisk and it still didnt work, same for MTweaks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
Which Magisk module do you have? Try a clean install.

For me, Adaway works, and i'm on LOS 15.1.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Nevaran:
I tried with 16.0, it starts, but it wants an update - cancelling the update and going for the downloads to download something, it crashes the moment you start trying to type.

When I installed 18.1, it was giving me a "unsupported version of magisk, please install latest version" when THAT is the actual latest version of it.

I just went back to my Galaxy Project ROM, clean install - everything works just fine.

As for AdAway, the version I tried was 3.3-180307 - it works flawlessly on the GP ROM, but this one it just gives me a blank window. Going to the latest version of it staright from the xda post, it starts but does not want to download/enable
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
"but it wants an update" ?

I don't think Ivan's ROMs have OTA.

Clean install mean wipe all the internal storage? Not just the data partition and cache.

Me for example, I wipe my internal storage withh TWRP, then I install LOS 15.1 or 16.0, then Magisk, then GAPPS, and I reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Nevaran:
Yes, clean install as in all is gone...except SD
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
It still is not supported as the only root manager supported by the dev is Losroot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Mint Julep:
Mix explorer works good too

EDIT: My bad, mix is an explorer, not a root manager.

no MMS notification when mobile data is off?

I can send and received MMS fine when mobile data is on. But, when mobile data is off and someone sends me a MMS, I do not receive any notification. On other phones with LOS, I receive a sms with a link "download" (which requires to turn data on of course). I search on the net but found nothing. Any idea?

My APN is sets as defautl,mms,hipri,supl. I'm on a French operator, SFR.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bruce the boss:
Hi all,

For the moment I'm using the 15.1 version and that's working fine. But I think it's time to switch to this version.

I found it Always difficult to see if I only need to update the ROM or other related software.

kernel-vesion: 3.18.138-g82a60843e3e

Smalbandversie G930FXXU3ERHC

My phone is rooted and I have installed TWRP 3.2.3.0

Am I up to date enough to install this ROM or should I update something before?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] cAase:
Great rom when I used it a couple of weeks ago. The animations lagged alot though. How does it look now?

Sorry my bad. Read about the HW composer.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Magisk 18.1 without third party modules works fine, though. I started using Magisk with version 17 more than six months ago and never had an issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iOrpheus06:
Just because it seems to be working fine doesn't ensure any future free of complications- which is why support is mainly focused on those who doesn't use magisk and its modules.

I have two registrered sofware in google play. When i try to register again both software show me error "no primary google account found". I can access perfectly in gmail, google play, etc. I have micro gapps. installed. Any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] KrissSo:
Ok, I found the culprit. Not sure whether it's a feature or a bug, nor at which level this is (this rom, LOS or Android). Anyway, here's the info: when your SMS/MMS application has "auto-download MMS" activated and mobile data is off, you don't get any visible notification or sms telling you have an mms. You will get an sms about it only if the "auto-download MMS" option is not set.

Hi Ivan,

do you have an idea when you will publish the next update?

Hope you enjoyed the coffee :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mcqtex:
After using LOS on my S7, I noticed some bugs:

- Bluetooth range is very low. When I have the phone in my pants pocket, my bluetooth headset often has dropouts. With another devices it works fine.

- The camera quality is (compared with the S7 EDGE from my wife) significantly worse.

- When I take the phone off my ear during a phone call, the display does not switch on.

- Two Apps dosen’t work: GCam_5.1.018.177470874.41362666__SG7Exy_V8.2, iBell. They start, but freeze.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Mint Julep:
I can totally relate to this

Except for the camera issue
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] downhere:
If camera quality is that important to you, stock firmware would be your choice.

For GCam you should contact the GCam developer.

If you want to give the dev to have a chance to deal with your issues, give him logs he can check.

New build is up, making this a first exynos device to have working hwc on aosp pie. build has been tested against previous hwc issues which were present last time it was enabled and such issues werent present in this build,

Also gotta say im really dissapointed at this comunity at this point, Some of you clearly dont understand i do this in my free time which i might not have sometimes due to work and other stuff i have to deal with in personal life and i do this for free just to help comunity (Hell i even cover server cost), so you cant demand anything i said i would post build when i get time which is right now, and worst of all im only person working on this device so if i wasnt working there wouldnt be aosp pie or oreo for that matter so if any of you feel like complaining again you can just go and use any other rom from here

anyway here is an short changelog

12.05.2019.

- Fixed HWC

- Updated kernel to 3.18.139

- Updated vendor security patch to match (Latest at the moment samsung decided to drop support for monthly patches on s7 so they update it every 3 months now, we dont use a lot of blobs from stock anyway so this is non issue)

- Updated system security patch to may

- Enabled quota support on /data (Make sure you are on latest twrp)

- Misc performance and stability improvements

- Synced with LOS source
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tyl:
[MENTION=5463536]Ivan.[/MENTION] Thanks for update and well done on fixing HWC.

Also, don't let the few whiners get you down buddy. The rest know that you're doing the work solo and very much appreciate the great job you're doing :D

I have been tested the rom these days (not the one that Ivan has released just today) and bluetooth is working ok for me. I've been listening to stereo music for one hour and no glitches. Range is around 10-12 meters, for me is as expected.

All internet, including this forum, is full of people whose only goal in life seems to be complaining and pissing of. Unfortunately they make more noise than grateful users who keep the thread clean and hit the thanks button when deserved.

If they are not happy with the rom, they can go and talk to Samsung for their S7 Pie. They paid Samsung 700€ for this phone, so unless they pay you more than 700€ each, they should complain to you no more than to Samsung.

hello, i backup everything with google its easier to transfer and faster versus starting over without samsung apps

Had that too. Because of exfat not yet being supported on this early version. Might come, but it's not a big one to copy data to PC via recovery or external card reader, format via rom and then copy data back. Took me 30 minutes for both
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] J.Naw:
Switched from 15.1 and so far its an experience. A little choppy without HWC but that's fine :)

Some bugs I noticed right off the bat: (can't get a detailed root log at the moment as developer options is missing the root access setting)

-WiFi drops occasionally

-assigning actions to buttons in settings has no effect (set home button as recent app switcher and still acts as a home button)

-changing status bar settings has no effect

-photo issues i was having in 15.1 build is still occurring in 16.0 build. (Super processed photos in 3rd party apps)

-do not disturb does not block all sounds (sending sound in messaging is still played)

Will aptx be implemented in this build as well?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] vpr6602:
No always on display in the settings and if i'm right this is something not possible with AOSP rom but not sure
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] dylem29:
There is many applications on the Play store who mention always on display for amoled screen. I didn't test.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] J.Naw:
Those play store apps tend to drain battery a lot faster than built in does. If I recall correctly, there was a post on XDA explaining how developers can enable the built in AOSP always on display in the source code for Oreo (or was it that Pie supported this new feature, can't remember)

After a quick google as well. Substratum might have a way to enable AOD, but that requires rooting and modifications that will probably cause a lot of bugs in the early stages of the ROM. I would try but I'm focusing on trying to find as many bugs as I can and reporting them. (May have to install magisk to get root though for the logcats)

Just tried the substratum always on enabler and, well. It works, but quite buggy on Pie, so I wouldn't bother, but it enables the Always on selection in settings, Ill try and find the enabler for developers.

I really must say, apart from hwc nog working, everthing works better for me then 15.1. Calls after connecting tot bluetooth are finally working for me. Battery life is fine for me (i have my phone on my wireless charger at work for most of the day).

Because this build is still beta, what features need to be working for it to become stable? Want to install it on daily driver but want to know if I should wait or not.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] OrenGazala:
I'm currently at your state of mind, waiting for a more stable release, not necessarily 'official' stable according to Ivan, it could be a good beta version also.

From what I understood, hwc not working and it is essential for smoothness of the phone when changing views/activities or toggling the notification panel for example.

When it's fixed, probably more things will be fixed by then and I'll definitely give this ROM a try.

Following this ROM with enthusiasm!

Thanks Ivan for you amazing work!!

Instructions for flashing ROM

Hi, I am on the official L)S 14.1 build that is no longer supported. I want to try out this build. Are the instructions for the official LOS build still valid here? Note that they do not recommend rooting the phone. Or is there a better set of detailed instructions for the install?

I guess that this is independent of any potential official LOS build for this device? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] crazydrive22:
Cheers mate!

It's running smooth and there are no bugs so far.

Sometimes the external SD is not recognised after a reboot but another reboot is fixing it for normal.

Would it be possible to include Always on Display in one of the coming builds? Atm I'm using an App but the battery consumption is very high with it.

Is there a Plan to set this ROM to official with OTA-Updates?

There's only one question I have - is this the last build before going official? I remember to have read somewhere that hwc needs to be fixed beforehand and that milestone is obviously reached (congrats!).

I believe having this build on the official homepage would get you the appropriate awareness and the gifts would for sure cover your costs!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Virnik0:
Anyone willing to offer an advice? Running previous build just fine. Now I've tried currently latest build, but after updating twrp to support ACLs and flashing the rom, I ended up with black screen upon boot. Power menu works, as well as backlight for buttons under display, but that is it. I had to restore from backup. Could Magisk be the case?
