Some Feedback:

- Since 24.11.2020 (do not remember the first one) Back camera do not work. Include app just a black background (dark theme) and a dark camera icon. No buttons no nothing or maybe i need to wait more time. Footej camera i can see icons and change to front camera and the front works.

- Rotate phone does not work. First time the animation happens but lineos restart after 2 or 3 seconds. Now the animation does not happens, when phone is rotated, no animation and the LOS restart pass 1 or 2 seconds. (rotation disable for now)

- I do not teste Bluetooth. Can not teste what others saying about the problem. Do not use FB messenger. i use WatsApp so when i do so i will check the quality.

- Voice call with google phone are nice. Speaker mode works for speakers :p, mic i have not done a speaker call for anyone so i have nothing for now.

Some notes about phone and installation:

- Very clean install. So clean that i have to clean install Recovery TWRP (who decide to default check the update recovery?? still my fault! i know )

- Install 21.12.2020 version and after NikGapps macro 2020-12-14 (could not install this with the LOS recovery, the weird recovery suggest other recovery, for real?! cmon... )

- SD is used as a external storage.

Update: Or some system update have fixed rotation or i enable(Disable superposition HW or overlay HW, Sorry i'm translating this from portuguese) in developer menu. Maybe this use more pawer? will see!

Even if it wasn't possible to shutdown/reboot without unlocking, I think you can force reboot on any android phone by pressing (Power + VolDown) at least for 20-30 seconds, then do whatever you want with it, so it's no big deal to have that security in my opinion.

Instead this would be much more secure to put a pin code/password whenever you want to access the recovery. At least you can't do anything without flashing something, which requires a PC.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] bixaon:
Thank you for explanation.

I didn't know this method is working on any android )

Will dirty flashing the new version mess with my magisk install and overall setup?

Thank you so much for your work!!

Hi,

I can also confirm, as reported by ukleinek and sammael1982, that the LED stops working after some time.

Usually 1-2 days after boot, it just stays off no matter whether it should be on due to charging, or blinking due to notification. A reboot recovers this.

For the notifications, the messages are displayed as well as notification sounds are played. Only the LED seems to be affected.

Same for me
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] DragonOneX:
I have the same but to me its such a small issue it doesn't bother me and the reboot fixes it if I want to know of it's charging.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kuestenluemmel:
Hi,

Thanky you for the possibility to use my old devices with a current android.

I have an old Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) and flashed the image from 2022-02-11 without gapps. I installed F-Droid and a texteditor, nothing more.

A free prepaidcard is used.

The device was not used since last full charge. So, why is there so much battery used in one day? Is that normal?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] rdelmont:
Dirty flashed the last build yesterday, on top of february release. The quality of this ROM is simply unbelievable, especially now that supports OTAs. Thanks @Ivan_Meler for the amazing work!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] andipeac:
Many thanks to Ivan. The new ROM

lineage-18.1-20220312-UNOFFICIAL-herolte.zip is working well. No issues with battery usage. Camera seems also to work without crashing. After some phone calls, no echo.

I am very happy with it now.

Can someone please tell me after installing this rom in which binary does the smartphone leave you, I want to know if I can later return to stock rom with binary 8

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] MobiloFon:
I 've used several Roms from Los and they had all the same error(s) : wifi was'nt stable and futhermore a terrible echo in calls. No difference in being called or making a call. Specialy the second mentioned is for me the reason I promised myself 'Never a Los-rom again. Although, I read here in this version is no echo. Is that correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Kootee83:
No, unfortunately it has echo at least in Facebook Messenger (I've tested it personally). Anyways I don't think there is any better LOS at the moment for S7.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] MobiloFon:
OK. Thanks. Facebook-echo doesn't mind to me, because I'll never use it (again). So I'll givi it a try.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
Here we go, april 2022. builds are up, here is a brief changelog

- Drastically speed up app launch time (more info about that here)

- Merged April 2022. Security update

- Imrpoved performance and battery life by disabling some unnecessary logging

- Removed AudioFX which was causing audio issues

- Synced with LOS source

Some performance changes have been backported from my 19.1 builds and you can read more about them in that thread, Larger apps hould launch much quicker now and smaller ones will see some improvements too.

As always big thanks to everyone who supported this project and helped me cover the build server cost and got me coffee

Also as previously stated if somebody finds good ebay listings for s7/s7 edge from eu feel free to forward them as ill be replacing my s7 edge with a new one (or with normal s7) because my screen is sort of messed up so i relay on scrcpy to see whats going on with it while testing stuff

Also a reminder that you can install builds via OTA updates from settings menu.

Enjoy new build and stay safe

Hi all, this might be a stupid question, but after upgrading to the latest UNOFFICAL release, I realized that my S7 shows me "Vendor Image: expired / veraltet".

What do I have to do to fix this. Do I need to fix this at all?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] easylivin:
You still have Samsung software on your phone (boot loader/download mode) which is old software since the S7 very likely wouldn't get updates anymore if you still had the stock ROM Android installed. You could check if there are updates for the original Samsung software by installing Android Stock with SamFirmTool (https://samfirmtool.com/samfirm-v0-5-0), updating it (if there's anything to update) and then going back to the custom ROM.

That's what I assume and what I would do but maybe there are other options.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
June security update is up, Not too many changes in this one just android security bulletin ones and few lineageos changes

[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aki42:
Thanks a lot for your work. The App SnoopSnitch, when letting it do a patch level analysis, claims CVE-2021-0314 missing the corresponding patch in this build. Is this a false positive or maybe intentional for some reason?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ivan_Meler:
that cve is definitely patched

Android Security Bulletin—February 2021 | Android Open Source Project

source.android.com

tho since this is sec vulnerability in packageinstaller if you use 3rd party one like one from larger google apps package your gapps might have outdated package installer

or it might just be false positive
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aki42:
Thanks for the infos. Update history on the device tells me that there is no lack of updates - a lot of apps got updated recently, including the Google ones. So, seeing the commit you linked to and regularly incoming updates, I chose not to worry (and on top, the CVE mentions that the exploit needs user interaction anyway).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Rainerber:
My S7 has the same echo problem with 18.1 as currenty discussed in the 19.1 thread. The speaker at the other end hears a huge echo. This problem is gone if i use an external micro/earbud.

How can I check the hardware version with 18.1 ?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Thibou:
I'm finally back from 19.1 to 18.1.

Couldn't stand few stupid things baked in Android 12(L). Thanks Google...😅

Hope 18.1 will keep enjoying Ivan's awesome findings (from 19.1) on our beloved S7's. :love:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aelfinn:
And what would those be?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Thibou:
- No option to choose a specific Android accent color, it's supposed to be based on wallpaper but does it really badly.

- Don't like the massive quick toogles

- On lockscreen the music/media controls to skip or pause the trick have undersized hitbox which means I regularly press 2 or 3 time with no effect before finally managing to click at the exact precise location Android wants me to click.

- Always On Display (AOD) works but it lights the screen at a brightness under what you could set the brightness when sliding it to 0%, it looks almost black at day time. This makes it totaly useless. Even with the phone near you, you have almost no chance to see it. That's annoying, AOD being one of the only alternative way to get notified when the notification LED stops working after few days of uptime (known but unfixable bug, just need to reboot).

On to of that my Signal notification sometimes make my phone freeze so badly I have to force reboot by holding physical buttons. That's not really an Android 12 issue but it finishes to make me prefer 18.1.

Hello, I installed this rom plus the nikapps core without root and the only problem I have is that the system hangs sometimes when it is in sleep mode (with the screen locked) and I can only solve it with a forced restart, someone else has this problem ? I already reinstalled the rom but it does not solve it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Thibou:
Hi,

I am actually also facing the same issue (20220609 build) but I was wondering if it could be because of the minor undervolt and frequency limitation I was doing on the CPU/GPU. I reverted all values to stock yesterday thinking it would improve, still waiting to see how it goes for a full day.

I'm using the ROM with MicroG, Magisk 24.1 and Morokernel v8.8.1.

If it keeps doing it I will try to get logs but it may be a bit tricky as the issue is not happening on every wake.

EDIT: After reverting CPU/GPU values to default I didn't face long wake time anymore.

I have noticed that when the system hangs in suspension mode, after forcing the restart the battery level drops a lot, today in the morning it had an 86% charge, then it was blocked and after 4 hours without use I had to restart it and I had 17% (in battery options it warned me of the phone had been used more than normal), let the battery run out completely and when I plugged in the charger I kept marking 17%. May I need to calibrate the battery?

August builds are up

If you are wondering why those before 19.1, well google messed up and didnt push full august security update source for android 12.1 yet so those builds will be released next week.

There are not too many changes as im still working on a huge rewrite of hals now that i have fully working s7 which is shaping up nicely but it takes time those new hals will work on both 18.1 and 19.1 and next lineageos version.

Also android 13 is just around the corner (Probably next month) and from what i can see s7 is ready for it which will give us yet another android version to play with

i think my wifi becomes unstable on this rom after several days, sometimes it even disconnects and doesn't find any available networks (altough i know there are several) untill i switch wifi off and on, switching to 4g always fix the problem (war alliance for example)

anyone else can confirm this?

although in ookla speed test the result seems ok, in continuous speed test app the performance is lower than on stock rom, something about the latency probably, or i don't know

i am not very sure but i think android 12 version and crdroid roms also have this problem

I have an S7 (herolte) currently running Lineage 18.1, build lineage_herolte-userdebug 11 RQ3A.211001.001 eng.ivanme.20220908 test-keys

When I call someone, they report hearing an echo of their own voice. It is present, but not very strong, when using the earpiece, while it seems like it goes away when I put them on speakerphone.

Is this something others have experienced? If so, what is the source of this problem? Also, can I do something myself to eliminate this?

I have an additional question: There is a screen cast function in this ROM. I have attempted to test it with a Chromecast unit connected to my TV. This unit does not get detected.

I have tested the same with a different device (Moto G7 Power) running stock Android 10. That device detects the Chromecast unit and I can perform screencast.

Is this a hardware issue on the S7 exynos, or is it software related?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aribk:
Update: I installed Lineage 18.1 on the Moto device to test screen casting with Lineage. It didn't work, so I guess that might indicate that the issue is probably not connected to your build.

I had people complaining about this issue as well when I was calling them in the past (on LOS 17.1 & 18.1). I haven't had any trouble so far using this LOS 20.0 build on my Galaxy S7. So it might be due to the ROM.

I only had this problem when using DKB Banking App (in Germany). It didn't seem to work on any kind of custom rom (went the same ways you described). I changed my bank after that, although it's not a solution for everyone I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Rainerber:
Yes I have the same problem. It seams to be a problem with one or more hardware versions of the S7.
