The screen recorder feature doesn't let me record a video chat. Does anybody experience the same?

I tried to record a video chat but it didn't let me do that. On 1.6.1 it was still possible.

do you have a link to 1.6 ?

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

@AlexisXDA

I'm coming from 1.5 but cant seem to upgrade to 1.7.

I'm on twrp 3.3.1-1.

Through ODIN V3.14.1 I installed:

BL_G965FXXSBETH1_CL18847185_QB33521057_REV01_user_ low_ship

and

CP_G965FXXSBETG8_CP16364052_CL18847185_QB33047599_ REV01_user_low_ship

Phone reboots in TWRP then i try to install 1.7 but it fails and reboots to twrp at 25%.

Any idea's?

It could be something is not right with your TWRP. I'm using TWRP 3.3.1.0 https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=294117. I assume you flash your BL and CP via ODIN.

By Clean Install, I assume you did a wipe cache, dalvik, system and format internal storage. Unless you have SD, then you have to mount in TWRP and copy back the v1.7 rom.

Hello,

Yes, before clean install, i have saved my data (photos, Downloads ...) on my computer and i did a backup of the phone with SmartSwitch (on SD card). For installing Rom, i use a dedicated SD card with the files on it (rom, magisk, BL, CP ...) (if she's formated during the operation due to a bad manipulation, it's not a problem).

For this installation, i would like to start from zéros, so i wiped Dalvik / Art cache, cache, System, Data and internal storage.

Firstly i successfull install BL and CP with Odin, and i flash the ROM 1.7, CSC zip and Magisk. I re-wiped cache+Dalvik and reboot.

All is good, but some Samsung App doesn't want run. Weather is installed but the icon is "grey" and if i click on it i have the message "This app is not installed".

I tried to clean cache and data for this app in the storage in app menu, same for Play Store and Samsung Store.

And i tried to update Weather with an APK up-to-date and i can't install it.

using another recovery

Hi guys, if anyone's still having issues installing with twrp, you can try OrangeFox Recovery which works for me, https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s9/sam...nt/recovery-orangefox-recovery-r10-0-t4096423

1. First Backup data/efs/imei etc...

2. Boot into Download and flash the appropriate Modem with ODIN, www.sammobile.com then reboot into Download and flash TWRP.

3. Reboot into Recovery then Flash Orange Recovery.

4. Reboot into Recovery then Full wipe, Reboot back into Recovery

5. Install ROM (from external sd card)

6. Reboot system, Done.

Fixing bluetooth disconnect issue

Run Magisk Manager then download Bluetooth patcher fix andthen reboot.

If you still get bootloop's try only install some apps and see which one is the culprit that's causing it.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] X5G:
Hi, I don't use smart switch. I use Migrate GPE https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=balti.migrate&hl=en

Backup only user apps, don't include system apps or restore only user apps. Use the system apps that is with 1.7. Don't flash CSC if it's working fine in your 1.5.

I clean flash VER1.7, every things is OK. But my One UI Version is show 2.1, why not 2.5?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Leon:
Because it's not full port of One UI 2.5. Some stuff are ported, other are missing I guess?

So far so good, everything seems stable. Except the Bluetooth connection. After clean flash of 1.7 I have the Bluetooth issue. After reboot I have to connect my devices again, I mean the phone kinda "forgot" them. I tried to flash the Bluetooth.zip from the rom but then I lost my Bluetooth connection permanently. So I just did dirty flash to fix it.

I also tried to use some magisk modules but since the Bluetooth fix is present in the system, these modules can't be used. I guess for now I'm gonna live with that issue.

Hello Alexis and all the other good people here!

I have been using v1.4 of the ROM for quite a few months now and I am very happy with it. Lately it started slowing down a bit and I want to now flash v1.7. Dirty flash. Not ready for a clean flash yet.

I have 3 concerns:

1. I am using TWRP 3.3.1.0 Sky Hawk. Since it is one of those newer user friendly TWRP's will it be ok to install the rom with it or do i have to go on 3.3.1.1?

2. In previous ROMS i could directly connect 2 BT speakers simultaneously with no issue directly trough BT connections interface and they both played in sync. On the v1.4 rom this doesn't work, either one or the other BT speaker doesn't play, even though they are both connected. Is this fixed in v1.7?

3. Are there any steps I need to be aware of so I can have a successful dirty flash without ruining all my settings and etc?

Hello, i did a new clean install. Just after install (with just smart cover and bixby disabled in aroma and install some samsung apps like some goodlock app, weather app and no backup restoring...) : i don't have samsung weather icon, but the app is installed and i can use the weather's widget and go in the app by clicking on the widget.

After this i did a restore with Migrate GPE (very long ! but good restoring with my home screen and configuration for my nova desktop and apps's drawer) , i see the icon of weather i had before (in rom v1.6.1) but the icon is grey and if i click on it it's notified by pop message " this app is not installed ".

I seen on internet a new version (1.6.24.42 over the 1.6.24.37 of this rom v1.7) but I can't install it, Android says "app not installed".

I can't see Weather in samsung market because i' m in France i think (as like as goodlock - Notistar doesn't want to work due to my location), i tried with no sim, wipe cache and data for some Samsung app (like market, weather, goodlock) and VPN on USA location but nothing work.

I flashed it with AlexisRom 1.5 and want to remove it now but can no for the life of me seem to get rid of it.

I guess if you update youtube from play store Vanced will up updated to youtube automatically.... give it a try

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] taboo_:
Thanks! But it's not quite what I need ;). I still want to use Youtube Vanced, but I want to install it a different way and to do that I need to remove the old version.

Ultimately I believe I need to flash ytva-universal-installer-5.1.zip with the ytva_vanced_use_this_settings.sh modified to uninstall and left in the "downloads" folder - but every time I try this, during the flashing process it gives an error saying it didn't see a custom settings file and so it does nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Revontheus:
You need the split apk from their official website

. To use the root version you need to disable APK signature verification and there are a number of ways to achieve this. The easiest method is using the app with the smiley face, in accordance to XDA rules I cannot give the name of that app.

Hi,

First, Thanks for the rom!

Second, I noticed that the lock screen notifications won't turn off. There is always the arrow up even if you have disabled those.

And it could be better if the notifications was there without that arrow.

Did clean install v 1.7 and chose extended lockscreen. ( or something like that)

Now updated v 1.8 but same thing.

Not sure how to restore the Task Manager/Slim option. Tried with One launche and Nova

SOLVED: removed Task Changer 3.0.00.19 and Slim returned. Reinstalled v 3.0.00.19 and all good. Presume it's result of dirty flash and new version of Task Changer? Not ROM-related at all.

I have so many apps like 101. I want to save on battery. I wanted to know if the stock battery optimization is good enough and there is no need for greenify or whatever 3rd party app. I know this is off topic, but I belong to this ROM already, so I'd rather ask people here than elsewhere. Thanks.

Stock battery optimization is pretty good tbf
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] X5G:
Hi Kris, yes thank you for your feedback. I will then compare my consumption in this manner:

Day 1 - I will full charge before I sleep and then check remaining battery % using greenify

Day 2 - I will full charge before I sleep. Remove greenify and define apps I want to sleep either in normal sleep or in deep sleep. Take note of remaining battery %.

Then compare which is thriftier.

What do you think? I can't make basis of normal day use because my usage varies on a day to day.

Hello, If for instance I want to go back to 1.7 from 1.8, do I also have to Odin flash the older cp and bl (the one partnered with 1.7) or it will still work with 1.7?

I observed that my apps are failing to connect to the internet. Message is that my wifi and mobile data has no internet which is intermittent. But my PC's wifi is okay. I just want to isolate. This is the reason I want to revert back. I'm not sure if sleep or deep sleep is the culprit but I never encounter this problem in 1.7.
