Problem is, it's not depending on the ROM but on the app, so it's impossible for the maintainer to tell wich app will work anf wich won't. For me, FP works for unlocking the phone, google play, paypal, my insurance app, and governemental app (I'm French). It doesn't work on my banking app. But there's no rule so it's realy difficult to tell.

I don't know any app that need FP and won't work without it, every app has other options, so it's not realy a problem I think, but I don't know every app on the market
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] XXBrain:
I guess it would not that complicated to explain why or better that some apps dont work. Its just because they use some additional encryption. if i understood it correctly. It would prevent a lot of the same questions to just add a general explaination. in oreo all apps could work for me. I still have an s7 on custom oreo for banking without any limitations. Since pie the samsung support is missing i guess and mostly banking apps dont work, or for me keepass2android.

There's no need to change the CSC, as LOS makes no usage of the CSC setting. This is only relevant for stock rom.

VoLTE and VoWIFI will never work with LOS, as it's based on AOSP, which is missing this feature.

I made a "dirty flash" from the 05.08.2020 release to the 08.10.2020:

1. Download latest version of ROM

2. Boot to Recovery

2. Wipe > Advanced Wipe: *DALVIK, *CACHE

4. Install the new ROM Zip & latest Gapps

5. Wipe > Advanced Wipe: *DALVIK, *CACHE

6. Reboot the phone

Since this dirty flash, battery drain explodes. Phone is empty after ~1:30h, before it was one day. The battery manager does not give a hint, what causes this. Any hint?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] toejam119:
Try GSam Battery Monitor it has good monitor devices such as the graphs that show when WiFi, screen, doze, calls have been active, this graph has been missing from Android since 7.1.1 days. On LineageOS 15.1 I had a problem where the phone wouldn't doze nearly at all so my battery drain on 3G standby was 0.5% / h, so I installed Greenify (on rooted mode, with aggressive dozing on) and my 3G standby dropped to 0.25% / h. Then I checked GSam Battery monitor and it showed that my phone was mostly dozing when in standby.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iankelly2001:
I've had this problem, too, but some days, the phone is good as gold, and runs cool, and over half the battery is left by the evening, then other days, it runs hot right from a reboot, and the phone can die before lunchtime, even with very little screen on use. There are no clues in Android's battery manager regarding any particular app or service hogging the battery when this occurs. No pattern to this at all.

Would posting any logcats, etc, help diagnose the random nature of this behaviour?

Hi everybody,

does anybody know if this is a problem when upgrading a ROM based on Ivan's ROM via TWRP? It was the latest version and Dalvik/ART Cache, System and Cache were wiped prior to installation.

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

thank you that Rom is awsome.

But connecting a bluetooth headset the language is coming out of the device and the headset.

I flashed stock and it works perfectly fine.

I flashed pixel experience Rom it didn't work.

What can I do or is there a known problem regarding bluetooth.

Nice work

First of all want to send many thanks to the developer of this amazing piece.

To all good people out there who are willing to help i have 2 quick questions: 1) If there is a way, can anyone tell me how to install microG on this ? i tried to flash NanoDroid-master.zip on TWRP but keeps failing, at this point i gave up. 2) I am aware that this Os comes without TTS installed, again my question is there anyway how TTS can be installed ?

thanks in advance for anyone's help.

Battery drain is kind of bad in the build 16 for me too. After 16 hours standby its nearly empty. I always have a bad signal inside my home. Maybe it's boosting.

Thank you for a great ROM (clean install). The phone generally is stable for a daily use. That said, I wanted to let know that for some reason Wi Fi is not very stable it disconnects rather frequently. Especially 5G. I am now testing 2,4 GHz connection. In terms of hot buttons: I set double click for a home button to start the camera but when the phone is locked it does not work properly. Also the built in camera app is rather sluggish and freezes. Some other option under settings did not work but now I just can't figure out which. I guess they are not that important then. Thanks again!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Well it sounds more of an electronic/physical condition to me... It's called "flicker" and usually is due to slightly-damaged components, non-perfect soldering etc.

Sometimes the cause is so small that is not impairing the functionality per se - up at a certain in point, at least, and that explains the fact that sometimes you need to reboot your phone. You sure phone is not damaged? Are you eventually able to try another ROM to exclude software?

Hi,

I newly upgraded my SG7 to the actual build (2020-10-08) and it works fine in generally! Thank you very much!

I installed the latest beta build of Magisks (21005) with the Canary Manager version but I can't get the SafetyNet Check working: Attestation failed! basicIntegrity failed, ctsPRofile failed, evaType BASIC.

What can I do to get these checks working?

Another problems are

1) the frequently message, that the camera stopped working, even if I don't work with the camera. What can solve this?

2) the fingerprint seams to work fine for the system, but I get an error in Enpass Password Manager: "Failed to encrypt the data with the generated key". On LOS 16.0 it worked fine.

Thanks and many greetings

This question was asked before but there was no answer: MAC address randomization for Wi-Fi networks is enabled by default and I can't find any option to turn it off. I need to set a static IP (via DHCP) in my WLAN to enable firewall exceptions.

Any idea how to turn it off?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] chrisrevoltes:
It passes for me. So I assume its something in your configuration. Activate magisk hide?

Same here. There should be a privacy option in the specific wifi settings but unfortunately its missing.

I had this option in the past. But after the update from build 05.08.2020 to 08.10.2020 this feature is missing. I also have problems in my local network because of missing rules based on the ip.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] ttmob4:
I have build 20201008 and I believe the setting you are looking for to set a static IP can be found by selecting the WiFi network 'settings cog' and then select the pencil to edit ...and then advanced settings...and then the option to set a static IP is at the bottom of the list of options.

Setting a static IP is a valid workaround but I'd like to set up exceptions with DHCP (firewall). Currently static IP is the only option but not my desired goal.

Wifi disconnects

Dear Ivan_Meler

thank you so much for keeping the S7 running!

The overall experience was great, nevertheless, I like to share an issue I encountered.

The wifi is dropping/disconnecting despite excellent signal and good throughput (>100Mbit/s in iperf3, 5Ghz, wifi5). I keep noticing the disconnects because I listen to music for long periods of time via Tidal (streaming). When I turn on the screen the wifi immediately reconnects. Also, it seems to be independent of whether I charge the phone. I do not use a sim card on this device and thus turned off cellular (airplane mode) and wifi on. Does anyone else experience similar behavior? Is it a feature to save power which only goes wrong in my case?

Again, thank you very much for this from!

EDIT: I experienced the issue in both October and November builts.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Hello Ivan, thanks for this new release!

After installing the latest build I noticed frequent frame rate droppings using retro gaming emulators like snes9x, MD.emu and mame. Also GUI seems a bit less responsive than usual, especially when scrolling and unlocking phone - for less than a second it stutters and you see screen background in grey shades. Perhaps something related with GPU software. Rolling back to October build fixed everything.

Thank you

For downloading via mega.nz I need an app plus account (I only like to use foss apps) and Googledrive (besides I switched to Lineage to avoid google) says I should come back in the next 24h or contact the domain admin because too many people downloaded the file?!

Apart from the download-portal issue -

while everything works fine and smooth with the newest update. I never had issue with hearing myself as an echo or sth BUT others calling me are hearing themselves very frequently... With the same SIM in another phone (also Lineage 17) there is no echo. If I understood it correctly the echo-fix.zip in this thread is for when I hear myself right? Or does it fix both directions?
