Is there a way to get Samsung Galaxy Store on LineageOS?

Unfortunately my interlocutor cannot confirm this. There is still a strong echo on the phone. The hands-free function is therefore not usable.

Is this compatible with note fe?

2020-08-06

Upgrade to 20200805 build. Next time please put the warning in 2m flashing neon text, for idiots like me.

Took the opportunity to flash the latest Sammobile stock. Just in case there were any updates to thing like modem ...

Installed TWRP 3.4.0.0. Installed 20200805, gapps 20200806, magisk 20439.

Primary setup OK! Installed TIBu, SD Maid, Nova Launcher.

Using SD Maid Disabled, Stopped and Removed from boot startup - Google Contacts Sync, Music. Trebuchet.

Reinstalled and setup most of my other apps. I use DAVx5 for contact and calendar sync.

Everything seemed to go well. S7 Edge runs cooler by several degrees, battery life seems better.

-----------

Over the next few days noticed the following, “problems” – none of the buttons secondary functions seem to work. In the case of Recent and Home there is a vibration but no action. Similar result with other buttons. THIS MAYBE SOMETHING TO DO WITH NOVA LAUNCHER because if I switch back to Trebuchet some functions sorta work but NOT all.

Camera seems to work,until I turned on the flash, when it stopped working/saving the pictures. Switched to open camera seemed to fix problem. I would like to try UNIX camera is this a “good” idea?

Finger print unlock does not work.

2020-08-12

Updated to 20200811. No observable change. Same problems as before.

OVERALL: very happy with ROM. None of the problems observed are show stoppers.

Thank you Ivan

Call recording doesn't work

Hi there!

This ROM works like a charm. Thanks for helping so many people to have more privacy in our phones.

The only thing I can't do is recording my calls. The native call recording isn't enable and the app 'Call Recorder' makes a 3.4 kb file each time I make or receive a call. It doesn't work either.

Is there a way to enable the native recording or allow 'Call Recorder' to work? The Lineage 16 allows call recording. I'm considering change ROM just because this is very important feature to me.

I appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!

Hey did you try out one of the Magisk modules? If I search for record in Magisk, I get some results.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] cquina:
I actually installed the two modules (not both at same time) that Magisk gives to call recording. Unfortunatelly, they didn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] asullash:
Google Chrome doesn't work. Samsung health oximeter and all measurement sensors don't work. Even sometimes notification from message app also incoming call doesn't show. So we can say there are lots of bugs still in this rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] |Wolfenstein|:
Fast and stable realase (for me).:laugh::good:

How about kernel version (4.x?) update development? Stiil in progress or cancelled? I remember you said something about that in past.

Thanks for your time :)

From OP:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] thetraveller9:
The stable release works fine for me. No crashes, no unexpected reboots (common for me with almost all beta versions of this ROM). Very happy.

Camera still with the same issues (no proper flash operation, video picky with setting and formats), fingerprint same issues (KeePass and other apps won't work, but other apps work fine with fingerprints, and always the same apps have the same problems even after resetting them).

Wi-Fi also disconnects quite frequently, no matter the network or settings. I already had this issue with other versions of this ROM.

And a very small issue that I've been having with all these ROMs is that the LiveDisplay settings reset themselves at every reboot, etc.

My main issue is that TWRP cannot decrypt /data now. It seems to be a known problem, but I never had it until now. No password asked, no password works, no full nandroid or adb backup possible, etc. Anyone solved this issue? (please, skip "format data" kind of solutions, basically because I already tried and it was a lot of work for nothing).

As for the rest, waiting for a working Chrome (I hope not as crappy and slow as its beta version), happy with the stability and the lack of crashes.

Thank you!

This is a really good build of Lineage Os, I use this as my daily driver now after moving over from crdroid, I haven't noticed any bugs at all.

Thank you for a great release of an already brilliant rom :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] cquina:
I also had the same issue with TWRP. It no longer asks password. It's something to be concerned.

FM Radio

Hi Ivan,

great that you keep the S7/S7Edge alive.

Is there any chance that you include fm radio as well?

KR v0ti
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mauam:
Not likely. The fm radio only works on S7 snapdragon version. Exynos has not fm radio unfortunately.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Estebanium:
Hey there, I noticed that the latest build has great performance, but lacks in battery life, in comparison to the build before the beta build. Otherwise a great build. I have not experienced any random reboots since then.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] putra langlang:
does anyone know why if i flash a PE or LOS is getting bootloop

but if i flash one ui rom is success

do you know how to solve it?? i want to use this rom
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] zzz2002:
If you are using TWRP to flash, make sure you DO NOT allow it to install the TWRP app on reboot. This has been shown to cause boot loops on restart.

This may not be your problem, as your post is a little short on detail! But it might be worth a try.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Architect_Kev:
wrong thread
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] :
Do you mean in LineageOS or generally?

As I remember correctly, there should have been a fm radio app in stock rom. But I might be wrong.

Anyway, if it's unlikely - then so be it

Thanks for your response
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mauam:
Stock s7 rom never had a fm radio. As I said only s7 snapdragon version has fm radio. Samsung flagships with Exynos don't have FM radio, only Samsung budgets with Exynos has fm capability. It's not a lineage thing, I use Los 17 with a mi9t pro & I have fm.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] gav720:
things I noticed -

PoGo is really choppy and stutters alot (previous stable version was smooth)

Adaptive brightness isn't working (can be turned on but it doesn't move)

using GPS only mode doesn't seem to be detected by some apps and requires "location accuracy" to be on too. (previous stable didn't require location accuracy to be on at the same time.)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] zzz2002:
What is the thinking/feeling on the Magisk module Advanced Charging Control?

Is it a "good" idea or not?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
If you know what you're doing it can be to preserve the battery life span.

Having using my self, I say it pretty good but can make the phone less stable, and on top of that I recommend to know how lithium battery work and read carefully the documentation.

If you do that it should be safe to thinker around with it s little bit, but if you don't do what i have written it could be dangerous (even if the battery protection circuit should protect you of all that).

Personally I stopped using it because it was making the phone (an other devices that I was using) less stable.

Hope that was helping for you.:)

Is it possible with samsung s7 edge to get the ASHA Protokoll (bluetooth) to hear direktly the smartphone in the hearing aid with this rom ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
Hi, I don't think so, maybe try in the telegram channel.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] emsitek:
Hi everyone,

I installed this rom yesterday and everything is running smoothly so far. I like it, but there is one problem that I can't stand.

The s7e charge too slow, it looks like there is no fast charging. It takes about 2.3-3h to fully charge the device. I checked with several cables, power outlets and adapters - no change. AccuBattery shows about 0.5-1a charging. Anyone experienced similar problem? Any solution?

Thank you in advance for any possible fixes ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
Do you have fast charging enable in the setting ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] emsitek:
Yes, it was enabled by default.

Calling voice too loud on lowest volume. How do I fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
If you have root see if you don't have a module like ACC, if not go to the telegram page and report the issue to the dev of the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Dark Stranger:
There is still no correction. Wait for the next update.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] supertiger1234:
Thanks. It's been like for for years with this phone with every AOSP version. I hope this gets fixed asap. This is the only thing thats preventing me from leaving Samsung experience.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Estebanium:
I noticed the same behavior with ACC, moreover it feelt like it also increased the battery drain.

I attached a screenshot after I uninstalled ACC.

Side note: I recently realized that Substratum is also a huge performance killer. I uninstalled all overlays and it feels like a brand new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
Yeah, substratum can take a lots of ressources, maybe it was coming from that.

Does it charge normally when you don't have it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Estebanium:
Yes I uninstalled the Module and came back to normal behavior, when it comes to battery charge and wakelock.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
Okay glad to help you out if that solved your problem.:)

Hows the Performance/stability with this ROM?

Since I'm still Using Lineageos 16?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] FoxhoundUnit:
Does anyone know why the battery drains while gaming even while being on a charger?. This doesn't happen when i flash the stock 8.0. I want to use this rom very much as it's beautiful and runs a lot smoother performance wise. Any advise and help will be appreciated.

I mostly got GPS off.

Battery mode is set from balanced to battery saving.

Fast charge is on.

Using wifi.

I tried to put game graphics to low without luck ( on stock Android 8.0 i can put game graphics to Max and battery never drains while charging ).

Thanks for reading!.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Dark Stranger:
Simple. The battery stops charging and starts to discharge when its temperature exceeds 42º. This does not happen in stock because it has all the original drives for the device and in custom devs should take care of the lack of these drivers making a patch here and there. Now if you continue to do this, in a while you should have the device plugged into a wall outlet or a power bank, as your battery will soon go into the bag.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] FoxhoundUnit:
Thank you for this great explanation!. I was wondering since LineageOS 16 what was causing this issue. It is a problem for a avarage user who surely sometimes wanna play a game on his phone without giving random charge breaks. I'm on this rom now this is like 5th time i re flash between 8 and 10 to try if the new builds fixed the issue. I had hope for the "Stable" version. If i would use the phone only for surfing and chatting purposes this rom would be alright. But as i game often on android sadly i will have to flash stock 8 again. Which makes me very sad.. I will keep an eye on the newer builds until i see notes about "battery life fix" or something near that. Thank you very much for your response!. Much appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
New builds are up with september security update and few misc changes here is a brief changelog

- Updated vendor blobs to N935KKKU4CTH1 with August 2020 vendor security update

- Enabled dynamic audio processing effects

- Improved microphone performance (Should also resolve headset mic issues with some apps)

- Increased recording volume

- Misc performance and stability improvements

- Merged September 200 security update

- Synced with LOS source

Furthermore big thanks to everyone who donated previously as those donations came handy because i was forced to change build server provider and new service was a bit more expensive but had less issues with downtime and performance overall so thanks once again as i do this project in my free time and these donations help pay for build servers used for those

now with some good news as most of you know Android R source has been released which means ill start working on s7 bringup of it, I already have working build on my s10 which helped me get familiar with changes in build system and android itself once again no etas as i do this in my free time and big thanks to everyone who supported this project as that helped keep it alive for since i took over around oreo when s7 was abandoned, also updated pie builds will be out soon
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Estebanium:
Do you see a reason to switch to a newer smartphone in the current situation? For example to the S10 that you support. Under the condition that Lineage would also be installed on the new device.

Edit: Don't do full quotes!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
honestly not that much s7 is still quite capable device but i tend to upgrade every year/6 months as workplace provides me with a phone, tho one s10 i got was purely for development purposes as people really wanted aosp on it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Z3r0000:
Hello all,

Firstly I would like to thanks Ivan and all contributors for making this great work :)

I'm running build 14 with GApps Mini on my SM-G935F, and this is very stable :) No crash to be noted after almost 2 weeks since installation.

I have noted following issues, in order to help the dev. Some of them have already been addressed in build 15:

Critical Issues:

General bad microphone experience:

- No microphone in 3rd party App when using headphones (Voice Recorder, WhatsApp, CSIPsimple, tested with Apple headset)

- Bad microphone with Phone/WhatsApp in speaker mode (Echo and noise reported, low volume. It doesn't seem to use all microphones)

- Touchscreen is still active when havin a phone/WhatsApp call, even if screen fades to black correctly

- Volume buttons are not working when screen is black during a phone/WhatsApp call (unable to adjust volume during a call)

- Fingerprint not supported in apps

Medium issues:

- Notification LED is not working (except when chargin cable is plugged-in)

- 2s delay when opening Camera in apps (Photo Apps or in-app QR-Code reader for example)

- 2s delay when taking photo (tested in stock LineageOS Photo App, or Open Camera)

Less important:

- Trebuchet Launcher is crashing (maybe related to GApps/Pixel Launcher)

- QR Code reader for Wi-Fi Network does not detect QR Codes.

Looking forward to update to build 15 :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Bertonumber1:
Another excellent update to an already great rom . I will post review and test of this soon

fingerprint is not working in KeePassDX :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] ae00711:
just to expand on previous post:

I have SM-G935F, and am running the 17.1 released on 11/09

Fingerprint works for: andOTP, Session, Signal, Briar, Element, Call Recorder, system itself (phone unlock)

but it does not work for KeePassDX, nor for AuthPass

Fingerprint did work for KeePassDX when I was using unofficial LOS 16 / Android 9, from Ivan M

I have posted in a thread on GitHub, on KeePassDX development page

---------- Post added at 02:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 AM ----------

just tested the 17.1 that was released 05/08 - it has the same issue within KeePassDX

edit: just tested on a spare SMG935F, with Ivan's LOS16 (Android 9) - no problem exists.

Hello all,

Are updates to this rom already OTA or is it necessary to flash again?

THX Andrew
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Julien Gontier:
It necessary to flash again (I think), I don't know (and probably think not) that it as OTA.

(Sorry if it not true my S7 edge die so I'm going to switch for a new phone.)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] NHJ1981:
Notification LED is non working for the past two builds(no big deal) but microphone volume is way too low in last build to the point it's difficult to make a phone call.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Z3r0000:
After a few days of testing build 15...no luck.

Unfortunately all off the issues I mentionned earlier are still presents. :(

Microphone is no totally absent, but the volume is REALLY low, even screaming in the mic results in a barely audible noise.

The situation is even worse than build 14 as buildin mic is not usable anymore with 3rd party apps (WhatsApp/Recorder for instance)...

Normal Phone is OK when phone on ear or with headset, but in speakermode there is an echo for the remote talker, making it unusable.

I updated with TWRP sideload, also updated GApps with version 12092020.

I'm not rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] ae00711:
did you do a thorough reset and wipe (both full advanced wipe and format in TWRP) before installing?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] kaszac:
I really appreciate you keeping this updated, Ivan. Thanks very much!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] P3I7:
I have microphone problems like Z3r0000.

In whatsapp voice message and video call my voice is very very quietly.

When i call its a normal Sound.

With a fresh clean Installation
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Z3r0000:
For the initial installation (moving from Samsung vanilla Android 8), yes.

Basically I followed this tuto: theupgradeguide.com / install-android-10-on-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-lineageos-17-1-how-to-guide/

I also had to repair (or format I can't remember exactly...) because TWRP wasn't able to mount /data.

In any case all Internal Storage has been wiped up (I installed from SD Card)

To update, I simply did a sideload LineageOS and GApps through TWRP, no format of installed build 14.

How mic issues can be related to Installation method?

Anyone here with no problem at all with mic on build 14 & 15?

Thank you :)
