hi bro,

instead of install lineageos with abd, install it directly from the twrp recovery after the full system wipe.

try to follow this step

do a full factory reset wipe from twrp

put the lineage file into an sd card or in a usb storage and attach it with otg

select storage where you put the file and install lineage from twrp

do another factory reset

try to not install gapps for the first try

after that as mentioned in OP: Do NOT install the TWRP app if prompted, this will most likely cause a bootloop

reboot the phone

Hello dear Danny

I re-checked the volume up and down keys, it was a hardware problem and now it is fixed

Probably due to moisture or the use of alcohol for disinfection

I knew it was my duty to inform

Appreciate your efforts,

Wow, I'll try it on.

When the official version is released by the LineageOS team should I install it or can I update from the unofficial to the official one using the dirty flashing method?! What'd you recommend?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] alexax66:
Hi! Thank You for continuing to work on a3 2016.

It's very interesting statement that zram is better than vnswap.

I did replacing vnswap with zram on another Samsung device and did not notice the difference: android_kernel_samsung_exynos7870

Maybe it’s because I didn’t do accurate tests.

I have minor notes for zram updating:

1. Need disable vnswap and zswap in config (see my commit: arm64: config: use zram instead zswap)

2. I think need apply next patches taken from Linux 3.15:

- UPSTREAM: zram: pass gfp from zcomp frontend to backend

- UPSTREAM: zram/zcomp: do not zero out zcomp private pages

- zram: cut trailing newline in algorithm name

- zram: check comp algorithm availability earlier

- BACKPORT: zsmalloc: require GFP in zs_malloc()

- UPSTREAM: zram: user per-cpu compression streams

Good luck!
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] danwood76:
Hi Alex,

Good to see you here, it's been a while!

I think part of the slow down with vnswap/sswap was caused by Samsungs user space driver doing something weird. The system is a lot better now under heavy RAM usage. Users on the j7elte were reporting lots of slow downs and UI crashes under heavy RAM usage which was solved after the switch to the updated ZRAM. The A5 seems a bit quicker to unlock with the fingerprint too, but it's difficult to say if that is just in my head :D

Thanks for the tips, I will look at pulling those patches in. The numbers in the "per-cpu" commit look promising (if reproducible on these devices).

Kind regards,

Danny
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] alexax66:
Quite possibly because I also ran into this issue with vnswap, but this was extremely rare.

I even ported the vbswap driver by @arter97 so that zswap works better on A3 2016 with low RAM.

Those patches I suggested are suitable for Linux 3.10 kernel without backporting.

Hi,

Thank you for keep updating.

I installed this rom 2 days ago on my father's a310, luckily the last update was released the day after. How can I install the update without losing any data?

Also, today, multi task switch key (the left one of the home button) was not responding, restarting fixed it. If it happens again, how should I report the problem?

Greetings! I totally agree. I have had this problem since the update from 28-08-2021. Device A5. It was because of these accidental reboots of the smartphone that I rolled back to Lineage 17.1, although the 18.1 version works better.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] general.nie7:
@danwood76

There is one major bug, also present in 17.1 official.

When headphones are connected, the alarm sound plays through them, instead of the speaker.

This in certain circumstances could have serious consequences.

Otherwise the ROM seems very stable and even more fluid than 17.1, amazing job.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] klemi71:
This is the way it should be if you connect headphones, isn't it? If your are afraid of "certain circumstances" and result could be "serious consequences", it's not the time to use headphones.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] general.nie7:
No, it is not. Why replying with misinformation, without bothering to look up the matter?

Every market device I'm aware of plays alarm through the speakers regardless the aux status. People fall asleep with headphones or with their phones connected to speakers and still don't want to miss their flight or wake up for work.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] klemi71:
I'm on Lineage for a longer time. So this behaviour is normal for me and the way it should be. I don't want this to be different. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Neither I know anyone, who dislikes this setting except you. In my eyes it's not a bug, just a setting.

But I agree having the choice for alarm audio output might be helpful for some people.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] ZETA-A:
I succeeded in activating the sim card through the process below:

1. Proceed Rooting.

2. Change the display language to English.

3. Insert the sim card, shut down the system, and enter the bootloader.

4. Delete cache data and reboot.

As soon as my cell phone was booted, my carrier was recognized.

SM-A310N0, SK Telecom
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] danwood76:
I checked on my S9 running stock and the alarm plays out through the speaker and not the headphones, so I guess we are different to stock firmware.

Not that I think our behavior is wrong though.

Kind regards,

Danny
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] danwood76:
I can't see how that would have effected anything from a software standpoint, you don't need root to get signal.

Maybe your sim card is faulty/dirty?

Kind regards,

Danny
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] ZETA-A:
Honestly, I don't know why it wasn't connected yet. Although there was damage to the SIM card, it worked without problems on iPhone 6, which was originally in use, and after rooting was performed, the communication connection suddenly became smooth immediately after rebooting, leaving the above answer.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] general.nie7:
Please note that also regular Lineage builds normally play it through the speaker. Playing through the headphones is normally considered a bug - I have nothing against such preference, but regular user's expectation is a reliable alarm regardless AUX status.

Cheers
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] danwood76:
"Regular lineage builds", any shipping device using the OSS Samsung HAL should be the same. There are several devices (not just 7580 devices) that use this HAL. I assume the behaviour is "alarms through the headset" on 17.1 official builds?

I will take a brief look at this issue when I get a chance.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] monsiu:
I finally found you....i got your rom and its by far the best i have ever tried.....you really did something fantastic and i was blown away...its effective and so good to look at and battery effeicient.

Thank you so much from me personaly,

I flashed your Lineage 18.1 on my samsung galaxy a7 2016 aka a7xelte and i experienced some minor issues:

1: when opening the sim toolkit i cant access any of my sims...whenever i click on one of my sims to access the sims options it just shows a small loading animation for like a millisecond and just stops...no error message or nothing, its the same on the other sim too so i legit cant do anything in the sim toolkit yet it shows both sims are visible

2: I saw my mem card nose dove from 32 gb to now showing 2 gb lol but i dont know if its a problem caused by the os and so i am just lost on what to do as i formatted on twrp but nothing happened it just renamed itself to DISK something randomly so...i donno honestly

Despite this issue your build would be my main os as its my favorite and its the latest and greatest android 11. Thanks man 🙂

EDIT: whenever i try to format sd as internal it shows the error in the screenshot below so i guess its an OS thing

I have attached the recording of the sim toolkit error and i noticed the spinning animation has just now stopped popping up.....i guess its there when i reboot. Also sometimes i can access the sim menus but i still cant use it as its glitchy and just does not work at all....i use mobile payment through there and during the off chance i can open one of the menus i still dont get a response showing what i did was sucessful

btw....when i removed one sim aka the sim 2 and put my main sim on there i find i can access the sim menu in the sim toolkit and this is the off chance i was talking about but still no dice as i can not do anything despite the phone proceeding as if everything is going well but in actuality i get no response for anything i do (in form of messages that is)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] general.nie7:
Yes, official 17.1 behaves the same on A310. This is my first Samsung LineageOS device, but each that I've used before (some Moto, Xiaomi, Huawei, LG), they all played it through speakers, just like any stock Android/iOS. I remember having one custom Alcatel that played it through headphones (Cyanogenmod times), but it was fixed eventually IIRC.

Hi,

I have been using this rom since 20210827. I'm very happy with it, It runs smoothly on my a510.

But today seedvault has gone. I don't know what happened.

When I'm trying to find seedvault in settings. I get app info where is no option to open the app. The only provided options are disable and force stop.

Sim toolkit is broken. It would require a fair amount of reverse engineering to make it work and I wouldn't be able to test each feature. To be honest I have never used stk on any of my phones so my enthusiasm for it is minimal.

BUT

I am getting significant battery drop during screen off time and even worse one when i sleep and in the battery usage i can see steeper dips compared to previous custom roms i have used....i wish i had pictures showing differences :(

I could be wrong but it might be worth a check cause am sure the loss is more than how its supposed to be during screen off time which should be having flatter lines....and not steeper ones as seen below in my screenshot of battery usage

It could be one of your apps doing something in the background. Or a Magisk module.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] danwood76:
The recorder app that is built in just uses the system defaults (and is really intended for voice recordings). But apps can disable the audio effects features in software so you might be able to find another app.

Alternatively you could remove this line in the /vendor/etc/audio_effects.xml file. https://github.com/LineageOS/androi...3d459ae71/configs/audio/audio_effects.xml#L36
