Hello community,

I would like to address handset echo bugs. While I am on call, the other person hears its own voice back. No problem for me but it drives them crazy. Bug is found when I use just handset but no speaker. The strange thing is the handset volume is so low that mic can not hear the voice and feed it back but when I lower the handset volume echo will be lower too. If someone can help me I will be appreciated or you can direct me to the particular thread. I found some similar problem on the internet but no solution is given yet.

Note 3 N900S Lineage os 18.1 December 29 Update.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rezpower:
Hello all,

I used to be a very happy LineageOS 18.1 user until a few weeks ago when after updates I realized that my battery usage has gone too high. Now when using my phone I can see the battery % fall one by one at a too fast rate, Unfortunately on the download page we are not able to go back more then 4 builds :(

I think the battery drain problem started after one of these builds:

https://www.lineageoslog.com/18.1/hlte#202110020000

https://www.lineageoslog.com/18.1/hlte#202110160000

I wonder if there is a way to get our hands on these older builds

OR

Find why the high battery usage is happening and a way to fix it!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
Looks like you haven't read this thread carefully, because if so, you should have come across my posts related to a similar battery draining issue and how I 'fixed' it ;-)

And I also asked for older builds, but never got any offers ...
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] bilatche:
Here , I had to go back on latest LOS 16 rom (and have to stay on) to find back my good battery life.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rezpower:
Thanks a lot for your reply. Unfortunately unlike you I don't have a spare phone to move anything to it and don't fully understand how I could apply your fix in my case, My only hope is to finally find someone who can share one of the older builds or maybe restore an old twrp backup I have when I first installed LineageOS 18.1.

But in this case I will probably loose my whatsapp, contacts, etc from after that backup which is few months old :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
When I boil down my fix it was in essence a clean install with a restore of the setting out of a remote backup (in my case Google) and from some local copies (SMS, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Notes, etc. via e.g. MyPhoneExplorer). I think getting your WA restored is on e of the easiest ways today as long as you have local copy of your DB or if you let WA create regular backup into Google Drive ...

Of course it's always a good idea to create a Nandroid backup before such exercises.

BTW: what prevents you from restoring your twrp backup you have from when you first installed LineageOS 18.1?

Though I personally wouldn't go that route as I think it might be 'mixing' further making it even worse you could than update those settings (WA, calendar, contacts ...) with the ones from your recent backup?!?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rezpower:
Thanks odoll,

My only hesitancy is due to my ignorance on how backup restore works. I don't know for example if I restore my twrp image (which has older address book = less contacts) will google add the new ones on sync or will it remove the new ones I have on google thinking that I have removed them myself from my phone!?

For whatsapp after a little search I think it will be ok as I will save a complete local backup on my PC and then I will overwrite it after the the twrp restore.

In all cases I can't stand the battery issue no longer and have to do something or go back to another OS even if it's going to be the old original.

I installed with TWRP lineage-18.1-20220101-nightly-hlte-signed.ZIP and MindTheGapps-11.0.0-arm-20210920_083829.ZIP, the phone restarts but loops on startup, after several minutes TWRP reappears

Clean flash without gapps and test, if no issues flash gapps, or change them..
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] robotttino:
thanks, the problem is TWRP old (twrp-3.3.1-0-hlte.img.tar), with last release (twrp-3.6.0_9-0-hlte.img.tar) Lineageos 18.1 is installed with success
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
Frankly I wouldn't just go back to an old backup if I wouldn't have a recent one. My recommendation is to do a clean install and (partially) restore the settings from a recent backup. (You should have a recent backup on-site anyhow to be prepared for a full restore, if anything might go wrong. Paranoid as I am I have several backup types: e.g. my actual TWRP Nandroid in my phone's flash, copies of those to a folder in my phone's SDcard (partition which is not mapped to extend the system) and a copies on my NAS, "system-build-in backups" via Google and Seedvault, and I sync my (local only) Calendar, Contacts via MyPhoneExplorer to Thunderbird. Rare Titanium backups as I find it too complicated in the free version)

Yes, I think the problem for most users - and for me still too - is that they are overwhelmed with all the options available and the tons of guidelines and how-tos you will find on the net. Anyhow, as we're on xda maybe this is a good start?
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rezpower:
Thanks a lot, I will do as you said. I will do my backups first. btw it would be great if we could get in touch with those who are making the builds and let them know about this! maybe they can fix it!
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] rezpower:
It seems that the battery problem is fixed with this fix:

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_system_core/+/314017/

At least I can confirm that it's MUCH better. If you want to test you should get lineage-18.1-20220108-nightly-hlte
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] newbie036:
Hello,

I installed with TWRP lineage-18.1-20220115-nightly-hlte-signed.zip with no Gapps.

Works great, thanks !

I installed Fdroid.apk (copied on the SD from computer), works too.

I installed some app from Fdroid, works too.

I set « Unknown app installation » allowed for F-droid & FFUpdater.

I tried to installed other apk, like firefox, chromium or other (previously copied on the SD from computer), doesn’t work, it starts but it ends with « application not installed ».

I also got the error message « External storage not available. Current state is unmountable » when I try to install firefox through FFUpdater app (installed with Fdroid).

I also tried with formating the SD as internal storage, same problem.

When I tried to download anything with the default web browser, it systematically close the brower.

I quickly read this thread focusing on SD issue, couldn’t find anything, so I ask my question here.

Thanks in advance.

BLUETOOTH KEEPS STOPPING

Bluetooth is not working and an error message keeps popping up: "Bluetooth keeps stopping"

I did a clean install on SM-N900T, with the latest files, BL, apps, and everything else.

Tried several ROMs with Android 11 to 9 but I get this problem with any ROM above Android 8.

I'd be grateful for any leads that could be related to the problem.

Things I tried:

- removing battery optimization from Bluetooth and Bluetooth midi

- wiping app data/ cache

- removing SD card

- changing all Developer Options related to Bluetooth

- restoring just Boot (crash) and/or EFS from RR

- wiping internal storage

- flashing LOLZ Kernel

- flashing universal wifi and BT fix zip

- flashing with gapps pico, nano, and MindTheGapps

- factory reset

- tried using sm-n9005 instead of n900T (LOS 18)

- LOS 17 (android 10)

- LOS 16 (android 9)

- LOS 15.1 (android 8.1) >>> Bluetooth works!

Thanks very much 🥰🥰

It booted fine on my hlte as well ,used bitgapps arm 12 and all is good. First time seeing a12 in action .

Cheers

Edit: after installing few apps phone become laggy and stuttering ,there are visual UI glitches black square ect. So if anyone want to test it just to gate a taste of what a12 is good but other then that all should wait a bit more until lags and stuttering is solved as well some mayor issue like gps and ril

I was using crDroid and after the last update the storage is not available anymore. You can't save anything or browse files. Since I've seen a sd_card complaintment in this thread I was thinking if the problem might be the same (maybe the CrDroid guys use LineageOS as the base system)?

Hey guys. The problem was maybe that the adopted storage option from a previous version wasn't much compatible with this crDroid version. I did a fll wipe. Then I've reformated the sd_Card from crDroid and it started to work again.

The system is good, but it seems that the battery is lasting less then the earlier version.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] js-xda:
I read thru most of this and also the 19.1 thread and wonder about the best choice of recovery and GApps. I also tried upgrading a Note 3 a few weeks ago running so far still on the last 16.0 build to 18.1 (prefer this as OTA updates are expected a while still as 19.1 appears to be not going official - at least the one by @html6405 as stated in the quote below).

I succeeded to upgrade TWRP to 3.6.1 but had issues (stuck at initial screen after the LineageOS boot logo) after dirty flashing 18.1 20220319 and OpenGApps Pico a. o. 20210916 (see reason for the "old" version below). As I have limited time for access to the device, I would be glad to save some try and error on the next attempt (where I will do a clean flash for sure).

Recovery: I prefer using TWRP for my own devices (more functionality) but see also the use to use the LineageOS recovery - a. o. the benefit of integrated OTA updates. I see also some feedback that a user managed using LineageOS recovery instead of TWRP to get rid of some random reboot issues (see quote below).

Are there any specific recommendations/experiences lately which make one of the preferable besides their difference in functionality?

GApps: I was in the past more in favor of OpenGApps but see lately quite some reports on issues - and also had some myself. The workaround appears to be quite often to use old (September 2021) packages and start from there. But I saw also the remark in the 19.1 thread (see quote below) that NikGapps might run even so being ARM64 and the ROM being ARM. Anyone tried that so far?

Are u using the latest TWRP ? 3.6.1??

Other recommendations on as stable as possible GApps for this ROM?

Thanks to everyone investing time in providing ROMs for these old but good devices!

EDIT: clarified some statements & references
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] js-xda:
Well, I had a chance today and succeeded: LOS 18.1 20220416 and OpenGApps ARM Pico 20210916 after wiping/formatting system, data and cache before. So far, everything running smooth (as smooth as you can expect from this old hardware).

Just to re-confirm the issues with later OpenGApps builds: Trying before OpenGApps ARM Pico 20220215 (latest available build) resulted in the usual "Speech Services by Google" crash right away on the initial "Hello" screen. This will be followed by more errors later which I didn't even try again.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] js-xda:
Compared to the previously installed LOS 16.1, it appears that there is an issue that I have seen reported for the Samsung Galaxy S5 LTE+ as well (sorry, can't find the posts back): When powering off the device (e. g. over night), the battery drains quite drastically (from 98 to 7 % in about 12 h) while behaving normal when running. Is this a known issue of this build? Testing is still ongoing but all signs so far are counter a dying battery. I recall from S5 LTE+ that rebooting to recovery and powering off from there "solves" the issue - but not a feasible option for the inexperienced user here.
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
Luckily I didn't have this behaviour with my htle, but I suffered with it on my (spare) trlte: I had two issues

i) first one was the massive battery draining though the device was powered off, which I think you are talking about

ii) second was the increased battery draining when it lost it's connection to the Wifi network, not being able to reconnect without manual interaction though the Wifi signal of more than one AP should have been in reach. (My guess is that it was / is related to an issue with my APs making use of Band Steering, e.g. pushing the devices from one AP to another or from one band (e.g. 24 GHz to another 5 GHz).

I never followed the thread if they found the cause / a solution for the first issue. It didn't bother me any further as I gave the trlte to a friend, who still uses it without issues. (As she uses it it's not gonna be power off and she only has one AP at her home ;-)

Hello,

After some recent updates, with some nightly versions, I don't know exactly which one, my Internet sometimes stops working. I need to restart my Note 3. I decided to reinstall fresh last lineages-18-1 (20220409) and the issue appear again. Anybody has the same issue and know how to fix that?

In my opinion, they made some changes in latest nightly build
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
Hmm, frankly your statement is a bit weird talking about "some" vs "latest" ...

If you think the latest is causing the issues - which is still lineage-18.1-20220416-nightly-hlte-signed.zip as of today, but most likely to be ineage-18.1-20220423-nightly-hlte-signed.zip soon!? ;-) - you are still able to get a copy of lineage-18.1-20220319-nightly-hlte-signed.zip from https://download.lineageos.org/hlte

Try an older build: https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm/

mentions beside of a lot of other new features (for 12L) also the following:

(18.1 too) We now support custom charging sounds for different types of charging, cabled or wireless.​

but where can I find those? I'm on lineage-18.1-20220507-nightly-hlte-signed.zip and I can find a wireless charging entry (in German Kabellos Laden) with the search function in the sewttings, but there's no option but for cabled (Kabelgebundenes Laden) in the associated menu?!

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
No, not in this context: When I want to report a (potential) bug, I want to report it in that why as I found it.

But anyhow even to your screenshot of your klte in English there's no option to set a custom sound for wireless charging different to the one for cabled!?

(Being a nitpicker I'd also state that a klte is not the 'same' as an hlte - though I know that they are mostly 'identical' HW specs wise ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] curiousrom:
That's probably because your device's original hardware & OS did not include a wireless charging feature and the dev did not port it because he did not want to or could not.

Just guessing.

[Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] odoll:
Indeed a lot of maybes, but I at least can confirm that my device is able to charge wireless. So I'm going to create an official bug report.
