I formatted entire phone ( data, system, internal storage, cache, dalvik ) and in aroma I selected to wipe phone and magisk modules. When I boot into the rom I can't download anything, save anything, make folders/files etc.

This happens also when I am not using full wipe.

Can somebody help?

I upgraded from V7 Magisk to V8 KSU. I'm having an issue where the charging speed is lowered to 5-6W (i have cable with power display) when the screen is on and reverts back to 13-14W when the screen is off, this issue never happened on V7. Any workaround or some fix? (Haven't tried clean install on V8).

Thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Zerviath:
Thats due to the v8.0 kernel the v7.0 kernel is set to higher wattage of charging but in the v8.0 the charging speed while the screen is on is set to stock which is 1 amp in stock rom no workaround for now.

I am gonna try this rom as newbie on custom rom first timer, a couple questions?

* my phone already rooted so why ı need Encryption for malware virus thing?_

Flash FloydQ_Encryption.zip found in the download section

* I just downloaded "FloydQ_V8.0_Exynos8890" folder so is it enough just one folder or?

*if ı get crash , able to recover via ex backup? or flash stock rom?

*Aroma means bootloader like twrp? after install rom using Aroma?

* is there video tutorial refer to instalation

* I need change CSC file to my country having csc .zip so , should flash it after rom before boot into system or after booting system?

thanks

1) Encryption zip is addon if you want to encrypt your data partition, by default stock ROM is encrypted, (Encryption means if someone were to take your phone, they wont be able to access the data on it from the twrp recovery, as it wont be able to read encryption)

- When coming from stock ROM that is encrypted, a data wipe is a must (so twrp > wipe > format data > type "yes") so clear encryption and its keys, however in Floyd V8 the option to bring back that encryption is there, by flashing the ROM + encryption addon, it will encrypt internal storage again making it inaccessible from twrp

2) The folder contains everything you need, currently what you need to flash is the

1) ROM.zip itself first

2) then the safetynet 20231231 patch

3) additionally its best to flash the updated kernel too (CronosKernel-V8.1-20231231-KernelSU) The kernel comes pre-rooted with KernelSU

These can only be flashed AFTER the ROM.zip and safetynet zip has been flashed :

- if you want to enable encryption ,you flash the encryption zip

- if you have issues with game performance, flash the SSRM DEFAULT zip

- install the latest kernelsu apk after you boot if you want to use ROOT, no need to flash additional zips

3) Aroma is a setup wizard, inside it you select options you want the ROM to have basically, when you flash the FloydQ_V8.0_Exynos8890 a setup wizard will come up basically, you can select what apps you want and what configuration you want for certain things

4) you might be able to find some installation tutorials on youtube for older versions, it should still apply here

5) you can't use any zips, especially csc zips that were made for other ROMs or stock ROMs, android 9 and 10 ROMs use a totally different CSC type that is not compatible with what you would flash on STOCK, the aroma installer has an option to select a country, however in 9/10 ROMs the csc is likely to change after boot based on your simcard, the only exception is if your country / sim csc is not lited in aroma, then you can select whichever one you want

CSC will be set automatically otherwise, and enable features like VoLTE / WiFi calling and the like, you can enable these in mobile networks settings aslong as they are supported by your carrier.

Once you are in TWRP, if your /data is not encrypted (so when you rooted stock, you formatted data) then you will be able to backup via twrp (backup SYSTEM, BOOT, DATA) partitions, then store that backup on your sdcard or somewhere that is not internal storage for safe keeping, if you had issues, you can easily restore that in TWRP and be back right to were you left of

However, if your data is encrypted, or TWRP is not able to read /data partition, you can ONLY backup SYSTEM, BOOT and when you restore them, your phone will be running stock but it would be like if you performed a factory reset, everything will be gone, in cases were you are encrypted common ways to backup would be smartswitch and 3rd party apps like titanium backup and the like.

Some months ago, my phone encountered probably the same issue as yours (poor 4G/LTE connection, only 2G, and then complete signal lost)...

Turns out it was hardware problem, there's a cable inside the phone that not properly connected. After fixing it, the signal back to normal. I don't know if your phone have the same hardware issue just like mine though, but sometimes poor signal reception maybe caused by hardware issue.

ROM is good. It works, it doesn't jam. The microphone does not have double voice unless you turn it louder on the speakerphone.

I don't know why, but inductive charging heats up the phone, I need to check if it also heats up on the cable

missing for me:

- quick calls in SMS, swipe with your finger, just like in the phone book, SMS to the left, CALL to the right.

- how to completely delete SMS via RCB

- assigning a button to the flashlight (I don't know if it is in S9

- how to disable safe mode options from the power menu

I switched from Magisk to KernelSU. When I made something that needed root access, on Magisk there was a popup to allow or deny root privileges. On KSU there's no such thing, I have to go to the KSU app and grant root privileges from there. Is this an issue with KSU or is it normal?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] ananjaser1211:
There is deep sleep, however oneui 2.5 has a bug with GMS that constantly makes it drain more than normal, this bug sadly exists on the N9 and S9 devices running android Q as i looked it up a while back on reddit, i dont think i saw any solutions, i was hoping it would be fixed with the latest patch however it was not, it still drains more than normal, perhaps someone can figure out what gms services are hogging up the device and finds a way to disable them, ROM and kernel wise there isn't much i can do for it

My S7 has quite good reception all things considered, unless the phone was previously taken apart and not put back together properly it should also be fine, you may be able to check which bands have low reception though i can't remember the app name that does that, based on that you can consider changing network mode to 3G , LTE only and the like./

Edit: right also making sure you have the latest bootloader and modem is not a bad idea

You can only backup /data partially, i.e stuff like migrate or swift backup, for system settings and launcher layout etc the best way is to use smartswitch and make it backup to your sdcard, or to samsung cloud, the rest you have to manage internal files, i.e saving photos to extsd by default and so on, as there is no way to backup the entire userdata partition once its encrypted

you CAN get tricky and try to figure out a way to use dd commands to backup the block to external storage, but its not straight forward not to mention very not ideal, so you should consider the phone as one that is running stock OS, and find ways for how people normally back it up, since they wouldn't have access to twrp anyways, the only difference is you have the option of root to backup stuff in /data/data for per app data and so on

Yes, this is to avoid app detection, KSU only grants root on per app basis through their app only, it does not expose root globally.

I think FloydQ v7.0 with Kernel 7.0 has a better battery, but v8.0 is more stable, especially the camera application and others even though it has GMS and Audio muting bugs. My temporary solution is using Bixby Routine and activating airplane mode at night, it can turn off GMS even though it doesn't last long and saves more battery power

Hi, I had to switch from Moro Kernel to Cronos Kernel. But I was very upset with the work of Cronos Kernel. Starting from the fact that there are very few RAM on the Cronos core. Very bad multitasking (applications close even though there is still memory). Is it possible to fix this somehow? I had to switch to Kronos because the day before yesterday Google Pay stopped working on the Moro core (

SOLVED

Hi @ananjaser1211 Firstly thank you so much for all your hard work. Although it is only my backup phone for when my Z Fold 3 is in repair, having the S7 (Sm-G935F) work so well after all these years has been a godsend! However... I had Floyd 7.0 installed and everything worked perfectly for years, then yesterday I saw that you had released 8.0 so I thought I'd update it. Tried to use Smartswitch to bring everything across, and the app closed itself part way through the transfer every time. I reinstalled, I did full wipes, I even tried installing the Kernel separately after the main zip and the safetynet, but nothing I have tried made any difference. Also, the galaxy store doesn't open at all but just says it has force closed every time I click it.

I have submitted a report on your GH page, but thought I'd ask here if you have any ideas for how to make it work? Thanks so much.

In the meantime, rolling back to 7 to see how that goes.

Ananjaser replied to me on Github... here's the solution (I tried the middle option and it worked):
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Lexus3:
(Solved)

Hello everyone

I have installed the FloydQ V8 [Latest] (without any further patch)

Then installed all the apps I need. The phone is fast and the battery consumption is similar to that of the original Android 8 version.

In the end I put the phone in the S View Cover Galaxy S7 edge and found that the cover doesn't respond when opened and closed or that the display doesn't turn on and off. If I cover the proximity sensor with my finger, nothing happens. I also notice that when I receive a call, the screen does not turn off when the cover is closed. But if I cover the proximity sensor while making a phone call with the cover open, the display goes blank. So without a cover, switching on and off while using a phone works. Do you know the problem and or do you even have a solution?

Thank you very much for your feedback

Have a nice day

Edit:

Some people have pointed out to me that there are already forum entries on this topic. Not easy to find these.

The solution is a new cover will be written. Although my S View Cover worked perfectly until the update, I replaced it. Luckily I had a new, little used Clear View Cover. To my surprise, the function with the cover has actually been working without any problems for a few days. Problem thus solved.

Thanks again to everyone for your tips and the good work on the update

Have a nice day
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] ananjaser1211:
Ideally it should not, the only thing i can think of is that its unable to access some of the bands used by US carriers, this is were CDMA/GSM stuff comes, hence why samsung usually ships qcom modems only in the states, but im not 100% sure, we know this happens on very old phones sometimes but the S7 should have not been effected, ROM wise we use stock modem since we dont have much options, reflashing stock to test is always an option but time consuming

Hey mate, thats for the test, if you can send me the app name in english because it looks very useful,

regarding charging speed i saw many people complain about it but i did not have time to debug why it happens yet sadly, my S7 is still broken and difficult to work on, i have updated the kernel code samsung added something for anti swelling which depends on an update in the battery driver we did not have, i have added it, it should fix charging speed

As to why you see less ram, in v8 i disabled something called RBIN, which is reserved memory region for camera, as i thought only the note 7 FE was using it, but apparently samsung added it directly to the kernel so i need to remove it from more files, i have also cleaned up other reserved memory issues so you should see more available RAM now, around 3550MB only, we still keep 200MB reserved for camera we can't fully remove that in the current kernel we have.

On a side note :

MoroKernel uses disk swap (so writes extra ram to ufs storage) , cronos uses zram (so extra storage is compressed and stored in RAM itself), for zram to work properly i saw that you are using very low swappiness, you need to set it to stock which is 160, zram needs high swap rate to work properly otherwise ram will fill up and swap will not be used.

We use ZRAM instead of disk swap because its much much faster and performs alot better, and does not take a big hit on UFS

so flash this kernel which hopefully will fix the charging problem and show you all the RAM, and again make sure you set swappiness back to 160 to avoid issues were ram will become too full and swap will be empty, 130 / 160 is ideal value

Let me know if charging is solved so i can do a proper release, Kernelzip is attached

@ananjaser1211 Hi again, a couple of weird things cropped up:

Firstly, yesterday after smart switching lot's of stuff over to the phone, there were 5 icons, 3 of which were folders, in my bottom row on Home; 2 of the folders had more than 5 icons in them and if I clicked either one then the UI froze and then force closed. I fixed this by moving those folders above the bottom row and just having single icons in the bottom and one folder with only 2 in it. All good since that.

Secondly:

Last night all was well when I put the phone down beside bed, plugged in. This morning when I picked it up it was black screened - but on, I hit power and nothing. I tried all the buttons and swiping, nothing, then I pressed and held power and it came up with Power options. So it was still on, but Black. Restarted - still the same. Then restarted and went into TWRP, cleared Dalvik and Cache and boom, all good again. If I have to do it every morning then it's still worth it to use the Rom, but thought you should know.
