Here we go another motn another build, this time with a bit more than just a security updates

here is a brief changelog

- Added battery saver options (settings -> battery)

This allows you to limit phone charging to given percentage

(By default it stops on 75% and starts charging at 25%)

this can be controled by sysfs paths

module/sec_battery/parameters/store_mode_min

and

module/sec_battery/parameters/store_mode_max

In future release there will be a slider for this

- Merged August 2021. Security update

- Merged August 2021. Security update to kernel

- Misc performance and stability improvements

- Synced with LOS source

big thanks to everyone who supported this project as their donations help cover the build server cost (and coffee ) and keep this phone alive

on latest android versions, As soon as android 12 source is out ill do my best to get it up and running on s7 too

DOnt forget you can always join thelegram group for progress updates and general chat (link in the OP), enjoy the new build and stay safe

When I phone the other one hears himself twice. Is There a solution or fix?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] wiwi11:
I love my S7, but i need trading and banking apps from Google Play. Must i install 17.1 or can i use this 18.1 with MicroG. Is there a guide for install MicroG?

I am from germany and i am new here. Sorry and thanks for help.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] wiwi11:
Can i also use OpenGapps or Mindthegapps?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] derders:
easy install with NanoDroid. Choose from downloadpage Stable NanoDroid-microG zip if you only want MicroG - but I would install NanoDroid-fdroid zip too (for updating microg) Nanodroid will install AuroraStore which replaces Playstore.

So I'm not the only one with this issue. People complains to me since i'm on this build (any update) that there is echo on their side.

Thank You
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Zoot Allures:
Thanks @Ivan_Meler for the hard and good work on that.

Got an old S7 from a friend to replace my drowned M31, installed the July 18.1 you provided to us.

Everything's fine except some lag while browsing files in RootExplorer (go figure) with the most usage I make from a device: listening to music, browsing Usenet (yeah, old school geezer inside) or the web, some traveling with gMaps. Pretty stable and functional. Thumbs up!

Until I got my girl on vocal with the phone (yeah, I don't call that much), she was on the road through her car play/droid play... except hearing her giggling (what a joy), I lost her voice, she said she heard me like in an echo room. Awful experience.

Don't know how you'd be able to sort that out.

Got back on the last Samsung droid 8 for that but I'll follow up any update from this Lineage 18.1, anyway.

Thanks again, mate!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Bentogen:
So first of all you are definetely helping me to keep my S7, but I have some minor issues, the echo issue is something I have too, but also my compass always shows in the opposite direction since I installed this build although I calibrated it many times, is there anyone else with this problem? Btw does anybody know how to patch a magisk boot image on the S7, because as far as I know there is no way to use fastboot on a S7, is there? So I assume I have to do it using Odin but I have no clue how.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Zoot Allures:
Hey @Bentogen,

If I went the good ol' Chainfire SuperSU way with built in Oreo, I had to use Magisk with this 18.1 Droid 11.

Could have been some 20.x Magisk, none of the newer versions I mean, I installed the manager, dare to ask it to flash the boot loader (standard "install procedure" -- I mean, without having to extract boot.img then flash it and so on) and it did its job pretty straightforward, no fuss: it booted and voilà!

Was I lucky? :cool:

edit: adding some explanations
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rho-bot:
I have the same issue, although on ivans LOS16. Orientation sensor shows 180° in North dir.

Maybe an issue with builtin hw (Magnetic sensor YAS537), which needs invertion by config?

Update: After doing manual calibration of magnetic sensor, Orientation works as expected. Unfortunately, it seems the calibration is not persistent within LOS, therefore needs to be done after each reboot :/
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] flouli:
You can patch the current Magisk version via recovery. Download as apk, rename to zip, boot to recovery, patch and you are done.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] ukleinek:
I'm still on 18.1-20210708 but experience a few annoyances (not only since this build):

- fennec (i.e. firefox from fdroid) is slow at contacting websites and also very little reactive e.g. when filling out forms.

- compass is strange in satstat and osmand, it's not wrong by a fixed angle, but jitters when not moving the phone and doesn't show deterministic behaviour when moving the phone

No idea how to debug these, but I'm willing to invest time if someone points me to a description about how to provide useful feedback.

I also wonder if it's expected that I can update the phone to a new version without losing data. Last time I tried (i.e. when updating from May 2021? to July 2021 this resulted in a bootloop for me and only redoing the whole installation including formatting of various partitions fixed it for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Roberto W.:
do u have these slow connections only with wifi or on all data connections? i have it only on some wifi networks and specially on my home network. the reason is a change on the kernel in later may, so it happens since the june releases.

i also have had a bootloop last time i updated, i tried it some times and after a while the bootloop was gone. no clean install was needed. i dont know the reason for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] ukleinek:
I only use wifi as I don't have a data plan for my SIM card. I have wiresharking the traffic on my todo list, but didn't come around that yet. Using the Browser App built into the message is quicker.

ok, thanks for sharing this, makes a feel a bit less like a fool :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Roberto W.:
i got a lot of ssl errors all the time. sometimes connections not able to be established. i flashed the boot image (kernel only) of the may image, after that all is working good again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] chrisrevoltes:
Maybe a stupid question. But do you pass SaftyNet with magisk (hide)?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Wrtlbrmft:
Why would that be a stupid question?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Cap'tain Champi:
Hi, after 1 year with stock ROM and loads of mods from Magisk and edXposed, time to get a new ROM. This one fits my needs, I installed nikGapps basic, removed Google Dialer and installed another AOSP based dialer, and I can record calls very easily.

Many thanks for the ROM and your work!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Architect_Kev:
if I may ask which dialer are you using? I was also looking for a way to record my phone calls but couldn't find one
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Architect_Kev:
Hey Ivan I really enjoy the rom and have used it for about a year now. keep up the good work although I have 1 question/request: is it possible to put add a function to the battery charge limiter to only let it charge after a certain time and and do the charge discharge cycle after a certain. kinda like the using hours in windows so I can have a full phone when I wake up.

greetings
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
Thats actually one of the plans for this feature, but right now its not implemented yet, that will likely happen once user gui for percentage limits is finished up
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Cap'tain Champi:
You can follow this video that I found today.

Don't forget to set the new dialer app as the main "Phone" app for the phone. Otherwise you will have the same issue as one of other users (page 35).

You can uninstall the old dialer (AOSP-based or Google Dialer) before or after using the new one if you want.

It is based on NezukoOS apparently.

Anyway, it works well, looks cool, it doesn't have weird features.

Sorry for the out of the subject message :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Cap'tain Champi:
Oh by the way, I was thinking why Google doesn't let us to do screenshots with scrolling. Apparently the button was shown in beta versions of Android 11.

Do you know if it was planned too to add the "Extend" button in this ROM?

Have a nice day,

Champi
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] chrisrevoltes:
Thanks!

It could be a stupid question because

a) it could be answered previously (but I reading most of the comments for months) or

b) I could just try it for my own

BTW I'm still on 17.1 and want to update.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Tom Mix:
hoi world

is it possible to remove the microg from this rom?

if yes how?

or where can i find the docs how to remove microg?

unfortunately it seems that i am an endangered user-species

because i am able to use an android smartphone without any

gapps or microg or similar. 🤦‍♂️

i found the same QUESTiON: https://community.e.foundation/t/how-remove-microg-of-e-os/8773/3

but the answers are more than vague to me.

can the OP @Ivan_Meler assess if this fits to this rom too or how to do it correct?

maybe a pure version of this rom can be offered? 🙏 🍪
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
microg itself is not even included its just signature spoofing patch that can make microg work if you chose to install it, if you dont it doesn't affect you in any way as rom doesn't have microg services installed

Hi ! First off all, thanks a lot for the job made. I'm still experimenting it. I have a question about voice synthesis, (for GPS for instance). It looks like voice synthesis (not voice recognition, just voice systhesis) is not working well. With the app Here we go, on certain voices it says that voice synthesis doesn't start. If I go to the parameters voice synthesis/favotite engine, it is greyed out. Is there anything I can do to solve that ? Natural voice are OK but for instance, if I chosse the option to voice the street names, then I have the issue.

Thanks !
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] essor-13:
I have also an issue with bluetooth stuttering when playing audio. Do you know a way to solve it ?

To be precise : I have an motorcycle intercom and also a aukey BT reciever. I have issues with the intercom (but the intercom works fine on an android stock rom) and I have no issue with the Aukey reciever.

No problems for voice (phone) calls.

Where can I download the ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Architect_Kev:
First page contains the download link. Don't forget to download Gapps afterwards because will not boot without it. I personally use nikgapps android R stock package

Gapps are completely optional. No need to install if you don't want them.

Thank you!

Installed here

Everything ok and call recording is working well.

But during call I can't see dialpad (When I open the dialpad, I can see only the letters "abc", "def"... but can't see the numbers - they white in a white background even in dark mode). It's not a big problem since I know where numbers should be, but if you have any idea of how to fix this little bug, I'd appreciate and thank.

Edit: prints of dialpad unpressed and pressed

Mine seem to work well in light mode, and in dark mode too!

Seems weird...

Yeah it does actually. I use NikGapps-stock-arm64-11-20210804-signed. Ive haven't had any problem so far. I personally don't really know what MicroG is tbh.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Jediritter:
This custom rom is working pretty smooth with nano gapps

Can anyone recommend a custom kernel working with los 18.1 ?

I would like some configFS enabled and it seems like I need a custom kernel for that

Hello all, could someone help me with Android Auto? I have flashed clean and installed nikgapps core + android auto addon for R. I've granted all the permissions for AA, installed Assistant and Google. Also I checked the system and AndroidAutoStub.apk is present in it. What I see is that the S7 does not even start AA and I can't even change the USB connection type, there is no option in the pull down menu. I'm trying to connect to Ford's Sync 3 system with AA support. All the help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

*edit* - for anyone having similar issues I found the culprit. It was the USB cable connecting to the car.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] j2v:
Installed this rom (clean install). Works smooth and no echo for the people on the other end of the line! Thanks for the work Ivan.

Custom Rom and banking apps

Hi guys,

I have Ivan's Rom installed with opengapps, non-root.

Most of my banking apps are working just fine but one does not, namely "Payconiq by Bancontact", I believe this app is only for people in Belgium.

Upon opening the app it says "A security error occurred. Please ensure that USB debugging is switched off under the developer settings. Make sure your device is not rooted and that a custom ROM is not installed"

So I can control the first two and SafetyNet compatibility test passes just fine.

So I guess the app is detecting the unlocked bootloader. If I understand correctly, Magisk is not able to fully hide this?

Does anyone know a way to get around this?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] basti_b24:
I experienced the same problem with another app.

I activated Magisk Hide and also Riru + Riru Enhanced Mode for Magisk Hide. Other Threads suggest that this works for some banking apps but not for others. I have one that works now but the other one doesnt.

Worth a try
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] s7forever:
Hey everyone! Does anyone know if there is a way to record 1080p video at 60fps on this ROM? Or are we limited to just 30fps?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
New builds are up, Here is a brief changelog

- Merged September 2021. Security Update

- Merged September 2021. Security update to kernel

- Fixed WiFi Display (Screen mirroring)

- Resolved few sepolicy issues

- Synced with LOS source

Builds were delied a bit this month due to google pushing source and security update itself later than usual but there are a few extra fixes that apply to s7 that are also included like working Wireless display

Updated builds of 17.1 will be posted in a few days too

Also Android 12 is around the corner and once source for that is out I will start working on getting it up and running on s7 thats at this point over a 5 years old device but still can handle new android releases perfectly

Big thanks to everyone who supported this project in past as their donations help cover the build server cost and get me a coffee (I do this on a hobby in my free time)

Because of those people this project and device is still alive

Enjoy new build and stay safe

Hello

good and fast rom.

It was installed without any problems.

After installation:

Everything worked.

Only the camera generates a lot of heat at work.

In Dou program, the camera stops working after about 20 to 25 minutes.

And after this mode, no program can use the camera.

During the conversation, what sound is returned to itself with the image of the other party's voice?

This is not a problem with handsfree.

Does not work on HDR camera.

I like the ROM, please be happy if you can solve the problem for you.

Thank You.

Working fine on a S7 930F, using version 18.1-20210909 with openGapps(11, pico) 20210910.

But I've a question, anyone else experiencing crashes when using the video camera with the h265 codec enabled? h264 works great, h264 with no profile really slows down the device, maybe it's just me...

Besides that, amazing how stable it's, thank you very much Ivan.

Hi again, just experienced a 930F being unresponsive, you can see the date and time, but none of the buttons do anything, as if it was stuck in Heads Up Display mode, had to use (Power + Volume Down) to shutdown the phone, anything else didn't work, what should I send? I've all of these but only after the reboot: dmesg, tombstones, logcat and last_kmsg.

EDIT: It seems only last_kmsg has any information before the boot, I can't paste it here for some reason, so I used Control-C:

Some background info:

Completely clean flash from updated stock(Android 9.0, 2020 May update).

flashed latest TWRP.

Installed the latest(lineage-18.1-20210909-UNOFFICIAL-herolte.zip) from google drive.

Installed OpenGapps Pico for android 11, for ARM x64.

Didn't root with Magisk or anything else.

Love this rom, thanks for keeping it updated!

I do have a problem since the recent update being that I can't use the hardware keys/buttons anymore (back and recent or whatever). I can still use the software keys but I'm wondering if there's anything I'm missing. I did dirty flash (as I always do) though so that might be what caused it.

Edit: after a few days it just now started working again out of the blue. Don't know why but happy it works

Hello @Ivan_Meler!

Thank you again for this awesome custom rom!

I have another samsung device A5 2016 and I read some devs talking about the zram compression, porting ZRAM from Linux 4.1.52, using LZ4 ZRAM compression and some commits for that, more info here

I wonder if these commits could benefit herolte devices or could make things worse lol

I have another question for @Ivan_Meler :

in previous LineageOS ROMs (I think not on the S7) there was a feature to lock active apps with a small "padlock" symbol in the app-history. This was especially useful for large apps like Organic Maps (previously Maps.me) which I use frequently. It tends to be killed when idle in the background and unfortunately is very slow to start up again (I guess due to the large amount of data for offline maps).

Do you know this feature ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
That would need quite a bit of testing to ensure stability and performance but its something that is possible and shouldn't be too hard to do, i will likely look into that once i find a bit more time (Probably after Android 12 is out which is nearing release by google)

ah so locking ram in apps, that was part of lineageos years ago but got removed in recent versions as far as i remember
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] neFAST:
After months without checking XDA, I'm surprised to see someone maintaining an Android 11 ROM, congratulations!

One stupid question, since I've been rocking FloydQ for quite some time. With this ROM will I still be able to use:

- Bixby Routines

- Disconnect Pro (which, I believe, requires Knox) https://galaxystore.samsung.com/detail/com.disconnectandroidfirewall

Thanks in advance
