I am an older person with very little understanding about android stuff.

I did really good with computers using windows until they went to win10 then I started to get lost.

When they came out with Android I was more than lost, I was out in left feild. It just make no sense to me.

I found this website because of the fire tablet toolbox. I have to say thank you to who ever made it and for the clear easy how to. It was easy enough that I had no problems with it.

I will be the person asking for help and not being able to give any back. I hope you do not mind.
[Introductions] blackhawk:
Welcome to XDA 🤗

To learn Androids just play with them. Stock Androids are far more stable and easier to learn than Windows. Almost impossible to crash and burn.

Man, you are legend! Will i be able to download banking app or government app since i kinda need it for covid checkin in my country?
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] vince31fr:
Some covid apps do not require play services so generally work. Exposure notifications have been implemented in microG, so many apps that require play services work as well.

About banking apps: some work out of the box, some work with magisk hide, some cannot work...

You need to try by yourself, or ask about particular apps in older XDA iodé forums.

The rom is beautiful and everything is working fine. However there the bluetooth call quality is really bad. I hope it will get fixexd soon
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] gouthamram:
How it's RAM management? Is it good for day to day usage and extreme gaming purpose???

Iam using S10+
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Seigul:
If you are fine with using micro G instead of Google than I would say this rom is really good for day to day usage. I only played some light games so can't say anything about extreme gaming though
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] wdevil12:
ok here is my take on this rom after 3 days (I guess). Flashing the rom takes a while and it encrypts the data by default even tho I had no such forced problem with other ones. if it's not encrypted and you flash it, it bootloops until you format data partition. The default setup this rom offers is good enough to use for average users. MicroG and stuff the authors put are well thought and stable. I like how they chose things like openBoard or iode browser (Firefox fork) over lineage ones because these are certainly better. Privacy wise so-called iode app has ad-blocker which is nice if the user can't set up his own. But not having (at least) google contacts sync threw me off than any other minor problems, so I managed to install it. next problem occurred when I tried to play Apex Legends Mobile beta, apparently MicroG can't show google's "login as tester" message or whatever that pop-up screen is. only solution was to replace MicroG with Gapps. The game itself went good, same as other aosp roms, better than stock roms, but in cost of battery temperature. it overheats pretty easily in outside of gaming as well. it could be my exynos s10e fault, who knows. Magisk installed fine with just flashing the zip. and the last thing TWRP can't ask for the password nor decrypt data partition folders, showing dozens of red warnings. Internal storage (media/0) is mountable and can be used tho.

edit: oh, due to not flashing multidisabler after formatting data it got encrypted, nothing to do with the rom I suppose. Still, good rom for those can live without google dependent apps and situations.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Seigul:
Talk about TWRP showing a dozens of red warnings, do you have a solution for that? I wanted to flash some thing else not lineage base but i can't with those red warnings
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Keule-Tm:
FYI, iodé is based on LOS as well..
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Seigul:
Yeah i know that. After i used LOSS and Iode, i'm unable to wipe data and flash any rom not LOSS based
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Quinquadrate:
Is there any way to use google RCS chat in google messages or restore whatsapp backups on this ROM.

I'm aware using these apps compromises my privacy, but i need them to communicate with family and friends.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] BobFed:
I managed to finally restore my WhatsApp messages. If you have a spare device handy it helps, I'll assume in my instructions that you do and this device has WhatsApp with all your data on.

On the spare device:

Open WhatsApp -> Settings -> Chats -> Chat Backup

Make sure "Back up to Google Drive" is set to "Never"

Then click "Back Up"

This will then save a local backup to the root of your device (well the main user folder)

Navigate to your root/user folder and compress the WhatsApp folder. It should contain 3 folders within it: Backups, Databases, Media.

Download Airdroid (or something similar, but this worked best for me) and start a web session.

On the new device with iodé:

Go to the Local IP Address displayed in Airdroid (or equivalent)

Download the .zip file you created.

Unzip this file into the root/user folder that you found it on the spare device.

DOUBLE CHECK: That the folder structure is the same as on the spare device:

Root/User

WhatsApp

Backups

Databases

Media

Install WhatsApp from the Aurora Store (or whereever you prefer)

You should then be prompted to "Restore Backup" after the SMS/Phone verification in the process.

Hope this helps!

p.s. Use Signal rather than WhatsApp if you're interested in even more privacy. The hard part is getting others to use it.

Did you try to reflash twrp?
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Seigul:
Yeah. I tried formating and a whole bunch of "permission denied" showed up. After that i reboot twrp and no errors showed when i tried formating again. However the internal storage still the same. It's kinda weird when i had notification about no OS installed but i can't install anything except LOS
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] wdevil12:
I had to format data again and flash multidisabler (to disable encryption) then flash other roms. I'm currently on BlastUI 3.35 (FUF3), just make sure to flash latest bl+modem zip before flashing stock based ones, if that's what u r referring by not being able to flash others.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Zakelinho:
Privacy related ROMs are always welcomed. Thank you! Will try it soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] mx82:
Great Rom, I am using it since 2 hours.

One important note:

Your installation guide has some mistakes(at least for unlocked phones )

iode / ota · GitLab

GitLab.com

gitlab.com

You do not tell which recovery should be used. Also that you need the recovery image and the file vbmeta .img.

The TWRP xda page instructions for Heimdall Linux helped me:

https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-official-3-5-0-x-twrp-for-galaxy-s10-e-5g-exynos.4180287/
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] mike_app:
This is what worked for me.

1. Flash Lineageos Recovery and vbmeta in Odin. Recovery found here: https://download.lineageos.org/

2. Reboot to recovery

3. Enable ADB

4. Sideload iode OS

5. Reboot

This will preserve encryption.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] Linux4:
Just a quick heads up - TWRP will break stuff just like on my lineage, lineage recovery should be added to installation instructions instead.

Manually flashing a disabled vbmeta image also isn't needed unless AVB was disabled in this build.

Hey guys, I've been using that ROM on my S10+ for about 2 years now and it is amazing, thanks! Only one thing I noticed recently is that the S10+ with the most recent ROM seems to have problems with USB-C to HDMI and Multi Plug adapters / HUBS. For example, I have an USB-C hub which also offers HDMI, Ethernet and normal USB. When I connect my phone via USB-C and I connect the other devices, Ethernet Cable, Screen via HDMI, at one point my phone just reboots. Also I can not connect my keyboard or mouse, then it will also reboot. Does anyone have the same experience or maybe a solution on how to solve this?

Seems to me that the phone with this ROM can not handle too many devices via USB-C HUB. Interestingly enough, my old S9 with the same ROM has less problems with that and my S21 Plus work phone which runs stock rom works flawless with the HUB (due to Samsung DEX I guess).

Attached you can see the sample setup with the HUB.

Thanks & best wishes

Hi Guys,

First off , thank you to Vince and everyone who contributes to making this ROM great! I am nubie, please forgive my lack of knowledge. I have updated my S10 e to Iode 3.6. I see the avaible updates in the Updater app for IodeOS 4.3 and 4.5. What are the steps to update to each of these versions , do I need to backup my data , re flash, I tried updating from the updater app but it didnt install, it starts installing the update then gives a error "recovery: failed to verify whole-file signature" Please help. Thank you in advance

Since the last update and a reboot I get the message "moisture or debris detected, USB port has been disabled.". Is there a solution to this? I can neither charge using USB-C fast charger nor USB-A to USB-C slow charger. Even in powered off state, the charge level remains constant. Hence, the phone is basically rendered unusable for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] UniNick:
Have you tried another reboot? I had a charging problem once on Iode 4.5 that vanished after a reboot...

For me update to 4.6 worked without problems.

In any case your rescue could be a wireless charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S10/S10+/S10 5G/E Cross Device Deve] basti_b24:
After researching a little bit, it might as well be a faulty USB charging circuit. I will probably just replace the mainboard (loads of cheap S10 with broken screens are available in my country, about 30$).

Considering this, is the backup functionality (seedvault) working on iode?

If I'm allowed, I'd suggest to swap Magic Earth with Organic Maps as preinstalled maps app. Has no proprietary source code and works pretty well.

Merci and full support for iodé!

Organic Maps is an alternative, but we wanted a simple app, with traffic data... there's actually no better alternative, so we made that exception. You can uninstall it.

Thanks for writing this out, was enough to convince me to switch over from lineageOS with gapps.

The only things I did differently was using the USB OTG adapter that came with my s10+ and plugging it into the spare phone. This way I didnt have to compress the file (which would have taken a while because spare phone is fairly old).

I also ended up pasting the whatsapp folder in 0/media/com.whatsapp/ because that's where it was on the old phone, which worked for me

There were two issues:

Updated stucked at "99%" (almost finished) and device did not reboot. I had to manually reboot it, but afterwards it completed the installation and everyhting worked fine

Root got lost (but I already guessed this)

Update: OK, it looks as if root itself caused the issues (addon.d could not access encrypted /data). For the next run, I'll go with Lygisk instead of Magisk.

Thanks to the developers, great work.

The only thing I miss is payment via NFC and Google Keep (haven't found a good alternative for sharing notes yet). That will probably remain the price of a Google-free system for now.

I still have one question about iodéOS:

With Google I have an advertising ID that all apps know and probably also send home. I can reset this manually under Lineage or a stock rom.

Does it also exist on micro-G?

Is it possible to view and reset them somewhere?
