I seriously need to insist on the camera issues which constantly crash. Video creations is a nightmare and microphone records VERY low compared to XtreStoLite I had before. But My camera is constantly crashing and takes forever to take pictures or videos. Just in messenger, I need to open My camera app, take a picture, wait for it to be saved in my gallery for 3-5 seconds, then open Messenger and send the picture from my gallery as taking a picture directly from messenger just makes it crash.

Your device is problem many T-Mobile users use this roms without a single issue, also probably this is because you are using TWRP for international variant not the one for your model

no march security patch on the last release on s6 edge.

someone the same problem ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] DqrKn3Zz:
Dude, your current build date is March 08, the latest is March 09 with the newest security patch
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bushladen:
Same here... I had the same issue on the february update top... #enesuzun2002, I made a new log with the last build before going back to the 25/01 build wich have calls working...

M'y model is 920w8
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] xerves78:
the march 8 release should has the march patch too, but the dev release the old feb release under the march 8 name ;)

Battery Options

Does this ROM provide support - will it recognize the difference in capacity - for using an S7 edge battery in an S6 ? :confused:

Cryptfs Password

Can I use Cryptfs app on this rom? My encryption password is longer that 16 characters.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] schu85:
Just installed this ROM a few days ago and it seems very good.

Compared to the original ROM this new ROM really improves battery life. My calculations indicate a 50% battery life improvement, which is enough to maket the smartphone´s battery last from early morning to later in the night without any concerns. Due to Androids smart battery manager, the battery life improves after a few days.

Every ROM has its problems and this ROM really struggles with the camera on many aspects.

- Default camera app´s photos have no quality at all compared with original Samsung´s app.

- Camera is very slow saving photos.

- If you install apps like Footej or Open Camera, they often crash and behave very slowly.

Nice work with this ROM. Thank you.

Best regards

Hi, I also have a 920W8 and the twwo last release did'n't work correctly, issues whith calls... Can't hear or be heared...

The 25/01 build works for me. Can you try it and tell me? i just want to know if my issues (mms ones) are hardware related or rom related ( i think it's the second option because on stock everything works great...).

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] hammondegs:
I have read these roms have an issue with noise suppression and the advice is to reduce the volume during phone calls to avoid echo on the other party's phone.

I have tried this rom and tried reducing the volume. Whilst the echo is reduced, it is still there.

Will there be a fix for this?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nezlek:
You can also try covering the second microphone at the top of the device. Helped me a little but, but the best short-term fix is a decent BT headset. Zero echo that way. There seems to be an issue with echo when AOSP Roms meet Exynos chipsets. Lineage 14 had the same issues, but I seem to recall that the dev swapped back the Audio HAL from stock and that helped a bit, too. It would also seem to me that there ought to be a way to dial back the audio gain on the microphones independent of the volume levels, but that level of coding is beyond me (for now). Without a headset, minimum volume is the way to go. Since just about everything else to do with this Rom works just fine, I for one will put up with it. Maybe we will all have the good fortune to see this become an official version.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enryfox:
I'm using this rom on a plain s6 edge and i'm wondering if encryption can be enabled and it actually works.

I tried with other ROM's based on Oreo and when the phone rebooted to start encryption, it would just bootloop.

Has anyone tried enabling encryption with this ROM ?

thanks

Is battery life bad for anyone else using a w8? Had the march 9th build running for 2 days now and the screen on time is horrible. Going to give it a bit of time to sort it out but I do really like this ROM other than the battery right now

Encryption not working

I can't make encryption work. I'm using the image from 2019-03-09 and TWRP 3.2.3-0. After enabling the encryption in Settings phone restarts and falls into a loophole. The only thing that helps to get out of the loop is to enter TWRP and Format Data. Does anyone know how to make encryption work?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bushladen:
hi, for my side, no battery drain...

I have the same model as you and i'm trying to figure out if i made something wrong or not.

Can you tell me me if you have some issues with the (default) sms app when tryng to attache a file (FC) ? And last thing, when you're trying to send an mms, to you notice data drops?

New version of TWRP needed for encryption

I did some research and it seems, that we need TWRP version >= 3.2.3-1 which introduces support for Android 9.0 encryption/decryption (the latest is 3.2.3-2). Could someone try to compile the new TWRP for us? :o
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] forumber2:
The Encryption issue isn't caused by the TWRP. [MENTION=7673911]enesuzun2002[/MENTION] needs to implement it to the ROM.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enryfox:
USB is not working too, it only operates as a charging device. That means no MTP transfer, no debug and no Android Auto.

I have to revert back to LineageOS 14.1 because encryption is required by a token generator I need to install on the phone.

I'm sorry because I liked Android 9 ...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bellerofont:
Just find out the developer options. Networking > Select USB Configuration, then select charging and next select MTP transfer back again. Encryption is sometimes workin. In my case I have to wait 10 min after encryption process. My phone bootlooping for 10 minutes and then start normally. Only problem I have is changing cryptfs.cpp default 16 character long password via cryptfs password app (root access). Some1 have any idea how to do that on this rom?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flukester69:
Just to say the 25/01 build works for me. The builds after this do not work. So something changed and broke this ROM for S6 920W8
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enryfox:
I tried everything, changing the default USB configuration, enabling USB debugging, but the data connection was never detected and USB modes were all greyed out.

In LOS 14.1 as soon as I plug-in the cable it prompts me to select the connection mode, with LOS 16 it would just start charging.

As for encryption, in LOS 16 I let it bootloop for a solid 5 minutes but I guess that is not exactly how it is supposed to work. In LOS 14.1 it just rebooted twice and then asked the pin to unlock the data partition.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bushladen:
Thanks, so no issues with data for you when trying to send or receive a picture by mms for exemple? If it's the case i might be unlucky...

If it's not too annoying for yo, can you tell me the steps you used to install this rom? I have that issue on all PIE ROMs...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flukester69:
Just did the usual factory reset, flashed ROM and open gapps pico,wiped cache and dalvik and booted.

Haven't tried MMS or sending pics but I will.

---------- Post added at 11:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 AM ----------

You are right the default messaging app crashes when you try select images. So I downloaded Google Messages.. seems to work but my wife's phone not seeing images.. i'll check further when she gets home.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bushladen:
It' the way i used to flash the rom.

Thank you for tour tests. Yes, Google message doesn't crash but i still have data droping when sending or receiving MMS... On these two cases, i have a lte displayed with a little cross on the network bar...

I hope the dev is still working on this ROM...

One more time, thanks!
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flukester69:
OK the default messaging app beyond just sending text does not work for transferring media. My wife's issue not receiving media (was because she had ancient messenger) with googles new and supported Messages app does work 100% and I don't receive any connection drop.

Hello, I have some questions. I had tested the 0211 build and had a lot of trust messages. No selinux and so on. Is that fixed at the 0321 build? I'm current on official 14.1 and twrp 3.2.3-0. Theres no newer twrp.

My experience (SM-G920F)

Hi,

just want to thanks for great work. I have SM-G920F and my experiences so far are positive. No restarts, decent battery life and only light echo in calls!! GPS seems to work O.K. and camera (gcam from play store) takes decent pictures too (stock camera app is the best of course). I've tried also nexus Rom and echo in calls was really strong + stability wasn't great either . There are few glitches though. When I receive phone calls proximity sensor won't lock my screen so I usually scroll down notifications or settings with my ear. It might get annoying for somebody who make lots of calls. Second issue is with Magisk manager - don't install hide props module or you end up in bootloop. It might get fixed with some update of that module. I'll try to activate google pay then.

Keep up with good work. There are people happy with this ROM :o))

bluetooth is not working in G920S . can connect to phones in 2sec and disconnect . cant connect in any bluetooth devices i have.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nezlek:
Works FLAWLESSLY on a 920F

Without data to aid the analysis, a complaint is only that. PLEASE refer to the initial post

•DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed

•Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)

•If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] imtouchk:
Great ROM, but on my SM-G920F charging stops at random times, usually for 30-60 seconds. It's not the charger either, it worked on stock.

Does anybody else experience this too?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] tillward:
Fine for me. Have you tried resetting your battery stats?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] avidichard:
Canadian W8 model. I have since the begginning had WiFi problems where during the night, I recieve no calls (I use GS Wave for calls), no messages and now, when trying to connect on my Wifi, it just does not want anymore. I know this is in a work in progress mode. I just want to note problems for futur updates.

So Camera is a big issue. There seams to be an reccuring audio issue during calls which I think lots of roms have and constant disconnecting wifi, mainly during the night but also anytime during the day.

Update Procedure .....

Updating from last version: dirty flash or wipe everything first ?

Update:

Wiped System, Cache, Dalvik.

Flashed ROM, GApps & SU (not Magisk - old habits die hard)

all good

Hi,

Just flash the 21/03 build (on 920w8 model)and I still have calls issues. Can't hear or be heared as if the call doesn't activate the speaker or/and the mic...

Here's the log if it can help...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] tillward:
I tried a dirt flash, but had issues with Magisk. Clean flash sorted it.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flukester69:
Nobody really seems to care about our phone. Read the dev is on Telegram so I got app and went there. Basically the feeling you are ignored is what I get. Going back stock, its more reliable.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] hammondegs:
I agree with you completely.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flukester69:
I appreciate the effort but spending a night to flash your phone and later to use it and find out it in the worst of timing its broken or when you really need your phone (like on the road). It's aggravating and waste of time.

Things broken on 920W8

-calling doesn't work/Bluetooth too

-smart lock doesn't work

-WiFi/mobile both break over time and require reboot (but show as active)

-data transfer mtp doesn't work

-screen brightness slider buggy. Settings change on their own back to default
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enryfox:
Honestly I would not flash an unofficial custom ROM on a phone which is "mission critical".

This ROM is a huge work-in-progress and I highly doubt the S6/S6E will fully support LOS16.

It's a phone made in 2015 initially shipped with android 5.0: I think we can reasonable expect to have a decent support for LOS 15.1 (work seems to be undergoing in github repo) but that's all.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flukester69:
They're all unofficial bud. Where's the official one? When's the official ones coming?

The ROM was working for 920W8 in January build(s) now it's not. Is there any update, explanation? Nope.

Honestly, I wouldn't advertise a phone model when I had message after message from people saying it's broken, yet it's still advertised on the subject line of this thread and no mention in the OP that it's broken.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Sub_Zero2:
Hey

Please give the devs a break, they are the ones keeping these devices alive.

A unified rom is a very large project, even on single device roms features might get broken after updates, unofficial or even official builds.

You of all should know this as a senior member, please provide some logs with the errors you provided, as who knows if the main devs owns the w8 device. Atleast with provided logs, the devs should be able to fix some issues.

Deeming that no-one cares about this/these devices won't actually encourage anyone to join in on the development either, and i'm sure that was not your intent as you wrote that.

tmo note 5

will this flash to the tmobile note 5, 920T?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bushladen:
Hi!

I think that's it's not about leaving time or what to devs... When you see that the updates are released that mean that dev are still working on it. We can fully understand that people needs time to give gently and for free a new life for our device. But when we say that we have some trouble with the w8 version, maybe It would be a good thing to wright on the op for us to know that some issues can be meet on our model... And if i want to be extrem, it's up to the dev to stop any support for our model if they want, and the only thing we can do, is to thank them for the hard work they've done... And the Januray builds stll works... :)

I posted two log (for the two last build) and no return... ;)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] olanie:
Hi, the January builds doesn't have the voice calls issues ?

And so somewhat more stable ?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bushladen:
Hi, I never had echos issues. maybe i should ask the listners if they hear it... The last build of january is quite stable for me (some data drop but not that annoying)...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] nezlek:
The echo ......

DO ask your listeners. The echo seems to be much worse on the other end. It is reduced if you minimize your volume setting (you figure out how good your hearing is in order to determine the correct level), MIGHT be further reduced if you cover up the noise cancelling microphone hole at the top of the device, and seems to disappear completely if you use a headset - wired or BT. Some folks have even gone so far as to suggest that the type of case you use makes a difference, but I personally think that is a bit much. The echo problem seems to show up in just about every Samsung device with an Exynos SoC running an AOSP ROM. You can see it in lots of places on XDA and the Exynos/AOSP combination is very frequently involved. Clearly the folks at Sam write THEIR HAL components to deal with this since no one seems to do much complaining about echo problems with the stock ROM.

Aside from the USB connection problem, which doesn't really surprise me since you can't use the Samsung drivers anymore and most of the generic ones leave a bit to be desired, the echo is one of the very few obstacles to this being a very complete and fully functional ROM, at least on a 920F. It also properly supports dual SIMs on a 920FD. - THANK YOU, Dev. Haven't tried it on the G9200 but I do not hold out too much hope there.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] murick_show:
I downloaded and flash it with twrp

i use it 3 hours, everything ok except calls

SIM is working but CALLS not

when im trying to call it ''call end'' automatically

i go back to official ressurection remix, because i cant use phone without calls

(Lineage os is my favourite rom, not RR)
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] bothered:
Everyone knows you try ROMs at your own risk.... It's not a service. Sure I wish they only concentrate on my rom but it's their free time to chose to do work as they wish at the pace they wish. Sure that can be frustrating but that's not their fault. It's the trade off for a free option I choose to take or not.

Me I'm all about stability and battery life so currently I'm more on lineage 14.1 for this reason and understand new versions are less stable so will test but not stay if it plays up.

Can activate Band 3G 900 with this ROM?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] ADB100:
Lol, if you are relying on your phone for stuff that is potentially going to lose you money then don't go flashing non-stock ROMs. There is a warning on the 1st page...

I had a similar issue recently when some changes were made to the LineageOS sources for the WiFi detection with Samsung devices (change id: Ie904cd107abd4dd757d18c8025db1f133efe1d91). I was late for a meeting and couldn't make a call to let people know where I was without pulling over. I didn't whinge though, I knew the risk I was taking flashing custom ROMs...
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] OttawaNurseM:
I actually have a G920W8 that I bought through Wind Mobile (now Freedom). I flashed the january version of this rom and everything works very very well. The only issue I've had is the camera, but with a 3rd party camera app, it works ok for my needs.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] vlouis:
For any custom rom is valid: "Flash it at your own Risk!" and the developers "not responsible for damage to Any dead equipment or loss of warranty!"

Nobody forced to use this or any other custom rom from XDA, if don't like it... don't use it... but please don't fill threads with negative and useless posts.

If you want a perfect rom maybe try this:

1. The cheap but hard way: Learn programming, and working hard few months (or more) make a perfect rom...

2.The expensive way: drop your android phone, buy iPhone... and you never will have problems with custom rom...

It's a funny picture about bug report:
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] enryfox:
I'm testing april 01 build and I'm quite impressed by how polished this ROM is.It is on par with another unofficial LOS 15.1 with mostly the same known issues. A minor problem I have found is that the trebuchet wallpaper app is reported as not installed. Not a big deal actually.

The specific problems (at least for me) with this LOS 16, are related to how it is built: all security features are turned off, SELinux is disabled, the build is signed with a public key, encryption is not enabled in the kernel ...

Some applications do not like to run in what they consider a tampered phone and keeps raising warning. Would it be possible to build LOS 16 with security feature turned on ?

thanks
