The boot can take 20 or more minutes so you maybe will see it as a "bootloop"!

I'm sorry, but this is not my first flash. I already flashed the samsung Galaxy S1 in it's days and all my later android devices, so it is not new to me. This was a bootloop, believe me.

I restored the Pie version successfully and am using my phone again. I'll wait voor newer versions, or buy myself a newer phone.

But still, thanks for the reply!

Because it has the same echo issue (link) ... WiFi is (was) also mentioned as a problem trigger.

I was gonna try PE 11 cuz i trusted word 'official' but idk now.. Guess its about luck some users said the rom is fine others says there are bugs so, you've any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] the_isz:
I had planned to move to Ivan's LineageOS 18 anyway, but instead tried PixelExperience 11 because of your suggestion.

The ROM itself seems fine, but I can already tell that - unfortunately - the WLAN issues are the same for me as before.

Unrelated question:

To install the ROM, I wanted to reboot into TWRP recovery and got greeted by the dreaded "Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock" screen. Luckily, I had just backed up everything this time, but this could have gone really bad (again).

Can anyone tell me how I can reliably prevent this? It seems that this randomly happens when I boot into recovery mode. Do I need to ask this question on a TWRP thread?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] .Michael.:
This would be (at least) the right place.

I couldn't install, boot loop happened

I will try to install version 18.1, is it better?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rho-bot:
If it doesn't boot, it's not a ROM topic, but an installation issue.

What did you do, and which TWRP you are using?

Have you allowed TWRP to install its System App? If yes, go back & disallow, as this will definitely block LOS from booting

This will be the same issue with other system apps which come without proper permission xml file. TWRP definitely needs to fix this.

Spoiler content hidden.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] WesMata:
i did it but it went into boot loop

the version of my twrp is the latest one, 3.5.2.9-0 herolte

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rho-bot:
So if you followed the installation guide I posted, and rejected TWRP to install its App, then I have no further ideas why this ROM isn't booting.

But it's definitely not a ROM issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kippy51:
@WesMata You post in both the 17.1 thread as here. What ROM are you talking about? Do you flash Magisk? Which gapps? Open, Bit, Flame, Nik?

Hi, great rom,thanks!

I use lypertek earbuds all day,sometimes wandering out of Bluetooth range. On previous rom they would autoconnect when i come back in range, but with this build i have to unlock phone and manually reconnect — how do i get them to reconnect automatically?

does nfc and google pay contactless payments work in this room?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] manyone:
got in trouble with root

this is the first time i am using LOS, before i had only images wich have root included and so i think i have made somethingh wrong.

with TWRP i install LOS17.1 and before reboot i install also the gapps

After reboot and bootloop to twrp i guess i must wipe dalvik

After that LOS starts but no root.

After that i realized, that something goes wrong so i tried SR5-SuperSU-v2.82.. with twrp but it throws an Error at the "boot image patcher" after -extracting ramdisk there is the "Failure, aborting" message

After that i tried the package addonsu-16.0-arm64-signed.zip also with twrp and also an error comes up.

after the message "Installing su addon..." came "set_metadata: Error on lstat of /system/addon.d/51-addonsu.sh: no such file or directory

so, could someone tell me what i have to do and in the right order to get LOS17.1 rooted

thanx a lot

Thanks for your great work! This phone has a very good hardware and you made it alive again! Just a couple of questions before installing LOS on my phone: Do you have any sample pictures taken from the camera? How is the in-call quality of the camera for instance using whatsapp? it would be great if you could share a couple of photos :) and finally does the wireless charging work?

It seems not solving it complete but the Echo is very much lower than before.

Thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Bearmanza:
Yes. Doesn't solve it completely, it's just better, had to go back to using a headset for video calls because it's not good enough, yet. This is probably the only thing about this experience that I wish did not suck as much as it does.

I've also had bluetooth disconnection issues (talking while driving, then if my internet signal disappears, the bluetooth disconnects. I think this is what is happening.) but I have changed to a higher version of the Bluetooth in settings, will test tomorrow if this is still the case.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] WillyCroco:
I have an original Stock ROM Galaxy S7 under Android 8.0

I experience the same random Bluetooth disconnections, while talking through on the phone in my car.

I've been experiencing these disconnections for the past 8 months.

They are all random, I was never able to replicate this issue myself.

Sometimes, I could have up to 3 disconnections in a row, other times it could be seamless.

Thus, I'm not actually sure it is 100% related to instabilitiea issues on this custom ROM.

The hardware may be at stake too...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Durchmesser:
This Problem with Bluetooth disconnection is new since my last update.

If I m in my Car, which try to force a connwction on known devices. I get permanently Bluetooth crash popup messages.

First of all I'd like to thank Ivan for providing this ROM, I've been using it at least for a year now and besides some minor problems, which have all been fixed in the frequent updates, I'm genuinely satisfied.

Unfortunately, I have the same problem with build 30. I had to go even further back than build 29 for some unknown/dumb reason, which was my fault, so I'd like to know if there's any way, to download build 29?

What kernel does this work well with? Last year I tried it it decided to have a few major problems including random restarts, and I feel like its because of the custom kernel I had then.

Edit: Is it also possible to have an always on display on this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kootee83:
Unfortunately, this ROM has also the issue with camera stopping working after 20 minutes of video chat (this is well known bug for most herolte ROMs). I hoped 17.1 would be stable enough but unfortunately not. The only ROM for herolte with Android 10+ I've found, that wouldn't have this issue is FloydQ which uses stock camera software. FloydQ works great in means of camera but it has issue with Fingerprint drivers. Fingerprint functionality works there only partially (in some applications it works, in others not).

Does anyone knows a ROM for S7 (herolte), that would have both - stock camera, and fully working fingerprint?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kootee83:
That's exactly the issue. It happens also in Messenger and I guess any video chat application.

- Merged February 2022. security update

- Fixed issue where camera would stop working after prolonged use

- Synced with LOS source

Camera fix is same as on 18.1 and 19.0 builds and its been tested thoroughly, It took quite a bit of time to figure it ouyt but its finally here for all 3 android versions i still keep updateing and that were affected with those issues to begin with.

Hi Guys!

I've installed last build dated 2022.02.14, but after importing messages into Messaging the old messages just pops up as "new messages" alerts without end. I used SMS Backup & Restore v. 10.15.004 to import the backup where it required status as default sms app to perform the task. After finishing I set Messaging back to default sms app, but then as mentioned, I get the alerts without end. It doesn't help just swiping them away, the same messages just keeps coming back as "new message" alert.

Does anyone have any idea as to why this is happening? A solution would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Hekja
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Hekja:
A second thing. When doing calls first couple of times people talking with me did not hear any echo of themselves. But after that people talking to me hear an echo both without and with speaker turned on. Maybe it started after me putting on the speaker the first time.

For the echo it is a known issue for at least 6 years now. You can find more information here.

Thanks a lot for your reply Kootarsh. Does this mean that using LOS 16.0 or 14.1 would solve the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kootee83:
Someone here reports the same issue for LOS 14, 15 and 16. I think the only ones that do not have this particular issue would be non-Lineage based but stock/OneUI like FloydQ. Those ones though have other issues (like fingerprint not working in many applications). You can check the issue list for all available S7 flat ROMs I've created (the list is still in development, but gives some useful info).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Hekja:
Thank you for your followup Kootarsh and additional info. I see that I might have to bite the dust and go back to stock rom. I have tried to find a stock download for the herolte, but have not been able to. In case a stock becomes the unavoidable solution, do you know where I can find it?

Thank you so much for keeping this device alive! I have been trying to install an update since my first flash. First, it would get stuck in a boot loop. I tried factory reset and then flash, it would boot no problem. After restoring data, bootloop. SAme thing over again with restoring data and boot, bootloop. Finally booted fine after restoring complete nandroid backup and then flashing new update twice. Who knows. But now, it freezes when I try unlocking homescreen. Notifications say SD card cannot be found.

Could it be that all my problems are related to adopted storage? How do I update with a system on adopted SD?

(I am only trying to update from LOS 17 from 2020 to LOS 17 from 2022 from the same thread. No upgrade.)

Can anyone help? Internal storage isn't sufficient, I definitely need the SD. I'd also like some security updates though...

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] .Michael.:
My S7 was running years without of any problems with the official LOS 14.1 (Android 7.1.). The only reason to skip it: It was no longer maintained and therefore a 'unsecure' device. I decided to go for the not official LOS 17.1 and since then the echo and other things are present.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kootee83:
The issue list is only about Android 9+, as S7 has official stock ROM Android 8 available, so most custom ROMs with Android 8- just tune/modify official kernel and some system components, this is why the issue list is different in this case.

I believe the above mentioned issues for older LOS may been not of the same cause or were there before official release of stock ROM of related Android version.
