I see too many users here flashed this from, but can somebody explain what the performance he or she gain after? What benefits of this rom, if I'm using original one
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bothered:
Might update to this, couple of questions

Does bootloader get updated or not?

Can I convert to magick root? Or is it better to stay with provided?

Many thanks for your good work
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] DavidxxxD:
You can update the bootloader using odin, Magisk has been working flawless for me.

Sent from my BTA720XL using Taptalk
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Gasrim_:
One of the benefits is that your not stuck on Android 8.0.0, and the speed is just as fast as the stock S7 rom, battery life is also decent the only downside is that 50-57% of your ram is used.

Other then that it's nice.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] fame220:
good point, but could you tell me what feature do you need or using from android 9? and is all features are exists in this rom from lineage os? couldn't find it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Gasrim_:
Being able to access Root privileges and dark mode. And one of the features is that there is not bloatware from Samsung that I never use eg. Samsung pay, Samsung themes, samsung's bootleg Play store. Just to name a few. It's mostly a Stock Google pixel, but I did install the stock gapps tho
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] fame220:
agreed, this stuff make me disappoint too, such things which couldn't be removed.

let's talk about stability of this rom, i read about 5-10 pages about issues and saw that there are some problems with blue light mode with some of application and sound problems (Bluetooth tether or something...). Can somebody agreed with that now? is any there others active problems which not solved or all things are works fine?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Mukanna:
Hello guys!

So the thing is that Samsung Health app sees heart sensor but can't start it ( so it would show red light and read heartbeat).

Any ways of getting heart monitor sensor (cardiac sensor) to work?

Please don't recommend stock rom, because I know cardiac sensor works in AOSP roms for Samsung devices. Just couldn't get it work on this particular Lineage OS.

Ad usual, please collect and attach logcat to help the developer in identifying the issue

---------- Post added at 09:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 PM ----------

ROM is stable for daily usage. Issues reported regard particular use-cases with certain combinations of peripherals or apps. My S7 for instance has neither any issue with night/blue light mode, nor crashes or reloads and BT is working fine with both stereo and car speaker.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Mukanna:
Here it is. In last lines there is error of the heart rate sensor.

June security update builds are up, Nothing major in this build since I was focusing on los 17.1 builds and their rebase which is still in progress

Here is a brief changelog

- Merged June security update

- Synced with LOS source

Big thanks to everyone who supported this project so far as it helped offset build sevrer cost and this wouldnt be possible without them, Also ill try to post 15.1 builds with june patch soon (I have to test their stability and update few things in them)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] DavidxxxD:
Man, I can't put into words how much I appreciate what you do! The carriers and manufacturers only seem to care about making money and they cram so much bs into perfectly good devices. This ROM blows any 2020 phone out of the water for me. If it wasn't for people like you, I'd be using a flip phone today.

Thank you so much and keep up the amazing work!

Hi guys, I've just installed this ROM on my phone and I see these issues:

- I don't see any pictures in my gallery... I see the folders but not video and pictures. Both are in my sd card. Is this due to the fact that I configured sd in the initial setup as portable storage?

- When a caller speaks to me in a call, he hears his voice. Before there is no issue.

- Also a caller hears his voice when I set speakerphone.

Is happend only to me?

My problem is as followed i had this rom installled and made a backup of Data (sadly not system) in TWRP, but when i reflashed this rom and restored Data i come to the lockscreen but i just goes on on and of for some time and then finally reboots. Any help how to fix that?

SVE-2020-16747: Memory corruption in Quram library with decoding qmg

Severity: Critical

Affected versions: O(8.X), P(9.0), Q(10.0)

Reported on: January 28, 2020

Disclosure status: Privately disclosed.

A possible memory overwrite vulnerability in Quram qmg library allows possible remote arbitrary code execution.

I checked the device certification. (playstore/Settings/play protect certification) Of course it fails. But I am running gapps and 100 apps out of the playstore.

In the update section of playstore play protect indicates apps are checked and fine. I even can setup google pay.

What do I miss?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Nothing... In my case, I had issues because Netflix was not available through PlayStore. You may register your phone with Google using the procedure I issued above, which will solve, nevertheless PlayStore will keep telling you that phone is not certified

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Don Carnage:
I have the problem that the touch screen is partly processing input while in a call and having the phone on my ear. I can pull down the notifications from the top while the display is off. This can easily be reproduced by putting a finger on the sensor, taking care not to touch the screen while doing this and then swiping down from the very top of the display. If you then take away the finger from the light sensor, the menu will be there. It's somewhat annoying if you want to use any call controls but you first have to swipe up to get rid of the overlay.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Wissenlinger:
Echo when calling

If I get called the other party hears a echo. Idk if it is just when activating the loud button (so audio output is louder on my side in call) or always. Is it on older LOS versions too? I would switch if not.

Edit: have seen other posts so problem is on other LOS v. too?

If I turn my volume down would the hear it too?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] :
I have installed LOS16 because I had several issues with LOS17 and unfortunately I have to use this phone as my daily driver for work.

Though, as all issues I had are gone, a new one is there; no ringing sound on the loudspeaker, the ROM seems to use the internal earphone speaker as default.

So at this moment I have to use vibration to get informed about new messages or calls as I simply do not hear the low volume coming out of the internal earphone speaker.

Anyone having the same issues, or can I do something simple (changing settings or replacing mixer_paths_0.xml by another one) to solve this issue myself?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] kekec01:
Hi. I am having LOS 16. So far so good and I am using it as daily driver. I might sell my phone so I have a newbie question......How do I install back stock Rom?? Just normall install via Odin or is there some special procedure because of Knox?? Thanks!!

Bluetooth/Wifi issues

Hey I've updated from the March version to the June one last month and even thought Bluetooth range was already worse than a Samsung ROM before, this latest updated made it near unusable.

My Bluetooth connection breaks when I put my phone into my pocket, the range is abysmally bad.

I'm not trying to complain, just bug report in case that's something you haven't been aware of.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Hello, did you try to update baseband as well?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] pineloko:
Actually no, I'll go do that now and then report back.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] pineloko:
Okay I did it and it didn't change absolutely anything.

Bluetooth range still incredibly small
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bolehan:
btw, how do i do that?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Hi, go to sammobile; download the last ROM available for your country (you may avoid those carrier-specific but It should't change much) and flash just the modem by using Odin. You may use TWRP as well but you'd need to extract the zip first, Odin is much simpler in that.

Partially solved clicks during recording

Hi

For those experiencing clicks as above during recording, here is a partial workaround:

Install Audio Recorder from F-Droid, and in settings choose a Sample rate of 48kHz.

Clicks are gone, however the recording quality is still far from that of stock rom (which is very good by the way)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Hi, I checked out this option; unfortunately I started experiencing general issues with the phone right after installing the audio recorder app, phone became suspiciously slow and unresponsive. All was fixed after uninstalling both f-droid and recorder apps.

FB account got hacked days after install LOS 16.0 build 20200603

Hi,

BTW, Thanks for the amazing work [MENTION=4610599]Ivan_Meler[/MENTION]!

I may have run into a kind of security issue with the S7 build or Gapps and I'm having a hard time tracking it down.

On July 1st (2020701), I attempted to update my wife's S7 (SM-G930W8) with those files:

$ cksum LineageOS-16.0/*

609327915 832529 LineageOS-16.0/addonsu-16.0-arm64-signed.zip

1849445029 561939297 LineageOS-16.0/lineage-16.0-20200607-UNOFFICIAL-herolte.zip

3079160076 781128049 LineageOS-16.0/open_gapps-arm64-9.0-stock-20200630.zip

3184601252 45666320 LineageOS-17.1/twrp-3.4.0-0-herolte.img

everything went fine (I run LOS on all of the house's phones). The phone was wiped clean and apps + settings were reconfigured.

A few days later (20200707), her FB account was hacked, the password changed and a SCAM scheme was run with her contacts.

We eventually recovered the account and I reverted the phone back to the provider's image (Android 8.0.0 Feb 2020 patchlevel:( )

Are we sure if the builds are sane? SELinux appears disabled and the fact that these are downloaded from a GDrive doesn't make me feel safe.

If the builds are safe, where might it have come from?

Any ideas? I find the timing quite suspicious.

Thanks for the builds, Ivan, this doesn't take away anything from your great work.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
If you actually googled this you would see that facebook login attacks were completely unrelated to selinux and they even happened with apps that could be downloaded from the playstore itself unfortunately there was nothing that could be done as those were just spoof apps google took down a lot of apps that did that recently from playstore
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] ElCoyote_:
Hi Ivan,

Oh woa, I thought the play store was safe to use. And I know I didn't manually install her App, it re-downloaded from the PlayStore automagically.

Thanks for correcting me.

Is SELInux enabled in LOS16.0 for the S7?

Thank you,

Seems more likely your wife made a mistake she's either not owning up to or didn't realise she made, rather than anything being wrong with the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bolehan:
Hi Ivan,

First of all great work. I use our ROM as daily and its fantastic. No issues whatsoever,

Is the Samsung Qmage/Quram one-click bug (CVE-2020-8899/ SVE-2020-16747) patched in your LOS16 ROM? Samsung unfortunately did not roll out the patch to S7 and this was a very critical security hole.

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
Yeah that has been fixed too, Well its samsungs system side bug so it wasnt really present on aosp as its not driver bug

Tasker crashing

I've noticed that Tasker crashes when attempting to interact with plugin settings. I did some digging in the Logcat and I believe it might have something to do with the rom.

Also found this issue for Singal where an user that was experiencing the same kind of issues.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install Tasker and QuickTask from the Play Store.

2. Create a new task and select the QuickTask plugin action under the "plugins" section.

See screen recording for more details.

Thanks for your reply Ivan. If i understood correctly, this issue did not affect LOS/AOSP roms and hence this ROM (LOS16) didn't require the patch from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
exactly it only affected stock and stock based roms because of way they handled images in mms and some other apps/services

Thanks for this great job

I'd just like to thank you for this great job. It's very hard to develop and support this software and yor're doing it very weli.

By the way, I 've been suffering a lot of problems with this distro (random freezes, reboots, etc..) but I finally found that there were caused by Magisk so I moved to SuperSu because I do really need SuHide for banking applications. I think it would be a good idea to report that in the fist post because it took me some time to realize it and I blamed it to the OS itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] nostromo12:
I really had a awful day!

Before I had to go on a trip the next day, I checked my device at night. And ping... there was a reset and it went in a start loop. Ahhhh! With the ugly button combination I started TWRP. I wiped system and did a new LOS+gaps install. But nothing helped. Then I wanted to restore the last backup. That failed when restoring d with "extractTarFork ended with error 255" Inside TWRP file manager I found a lot of files in LOST&FOUND dir. No file operation delete etc was possible.

Then I made a backup of all my files in external store with USB to my pc. Then FORMAT DATA in TWRP

Now restore of the last nandroid backup was successful. Copied all files of the internal storage back.

SAVED , hurray, :laugh::laugh:

Everything smooth again!

Thanks again, Ivan, for your great work on this device. Using this ROM as a daily driver for a long time now and am really thankful for your regular updates.

Beside some strange issues, which I also encountered on your build for the S5 mini, I only want to report a bug that I am having issues with since your last three updates: apps I want to open keep getting closed. Sometimes the screen just stays black, sometimes an android system error message is displayed telling me the app repeatedly crashed, giving me the option to watch app informations or to close the app. After a few times the app opens and I am able to use it.

I attached an error log, maybe others are having same issues and it is worth taking a look into it. If not, I'm also ok with that. Will continue using it as well. :)

Thanks once more, keep up your great attitude- I love it!

Question for Ivan - out of curiosity:

Have seen you rebased S7 LOS17.1 to a new kernel. Do you have further plans to rebase LOS16.0 also later?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Well seems that Ivan is working on 17.1 to make It official... Rebasing 16.0 is quite a work and if 17.1 becomes LOS official I doubt that It is worth.

Also, if I remember well, in past builds 16.0 already received a kernel refresh to extend support, so a rebase already happened in fact...

Thanks for keeping Lineage support alive on this device.

I have disabled the option to switch hotspot off when inactive, but I still find that the hotspot will stop working properly if it's inactive for a few minutes. Devices will disconnect from it, and can't reconnect until I disable and re-enable the hotspot.

The hotspot is still visible, and I can try to reconnect to it, but it will get stuck at obtaining IP address.
