You likely wont have to flash stock, just wipe everything (you might have to format data too) and flash lineageos 19 with gapps if you want them

Nikgapps is causing that crash, thats also what is slowing down phone and heating it up which in turn makes it charge slower

thats what system partition size and few other partitions like boot recovery cache and preload amount to, rom does not repartition the phone to free up that space because that is risky process, if you use app like root explorer you will see that there is free space in system partition for example

Hardware button backlight funny enough is one of lineageos features that has not been implemented in lineage itself yet mostly because there are not too many devices with hw keys that run 19, it will be there in the future as device side driver is ready but underlying system side changes are not there yet

I have tested the Dec 9 build and signature spoofing works fine but I could not flash minmicroG. It caused a bootloop. So I don't have Phonesky and no access to things like voice typing. Is minmicroG likely to work on the latest build? i might try to wipe and reinstall.

Though I've been following XDA (& Cyanogen) since around my HTC Desire or Alcatel OneTouch [This place has been Awesome and I feel old & nostalgic :') ], but this is my first comment/interaction here on XDA so apologies if this isn't the right place to ask stuff or so:

I am using s7 edge exynos(SMG935F) for some testing stuff lately. I've had installed Los since around last year or so. But recently after some updates, I am not able to copy/write to "/system/etc/security/cacerts/".

I need to add some custom certs there in order to proxy https traffic.

Already have those certs installed since quite some time and everything worked perfectly but since the last OTA update (just got it yesterday or so) and now it does not proxy the traffic/recognize the cert. That's possibly an issue with the proxying tool that I'm using (maybe) so decided to copy the fresh certs there again as system. But it won't allow me to do so stating that it's a "Read-only Filesystem". Following are the things I tried without success:

1. Manually mounting /system & / using the mount -o command.

2. adb root/remount

3. Root Explorer from within the Phone

4. https://www.systemrw.com/

5. Magisk Systemless Hosts already enabled

6. Magisk AlwaysTrustUserCerts

7. Android 14 method for copying to System Certs

Any and all help/guidance would be much appreciated!

possible bug, (and fix?)

i had this issue of random crashs, were the OS will random reboot and then there would be no internet until a reset.

i was just able to find and reproduce the issue. it was caused by: (after months of this)

setting>system>buttons.

"long press" for menu, home, back.

were set to Voice.

i never used these but randomly i would trigger them causing the fault. (press or in pocket)

now i have it disabled, it has not happened in a few days.

although sometimes the lock screen wont wake up and be stuck on the clock needing reset.

That's normal with the contacts default app, unfortunately. Import them & reboot, then check if they disappear again, if so, do the same procedure. Doing that 2 or 3 times & they will stick.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] ztleth:
Another rad ROM by @Ivan_Meler ! I noticed that from the February ROM there was no on-phone update avaiable.

So, I grabbed the ROM manually, and the latest GApps, and Magisk, and installed from TWRP.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] odiseo123:
Hi @Ivan_Meler

Thanks for the great work.

I have been playing with the ROM for the past weeks. I have been unable to get the voice recording going.

I have tried ACR Phone (with its companion Magisk module), Cube ACR (with its apk helper) and BCR (as Magisk module).

After some debugging in ACR Phone (https://github.com/NLLAPPS/ACRPhoneHelper/issues/7) and BCR, I am tempted to conclude the issue lies with the ROM.

The ACR Phone logs hints at "exception=java.lang.Exception: Remote error", while the BCR one suggests "The recording failed in an internal Android component (android.media.AudioRecord.native_get_buffer_size_in_frames). This device or firmware might not support call recording. Unable to retrieve AudioRecord pointer for frameCount()".

It may be worth noting that I was successfully using ACR (the predecessor of ACR Phone) successfully on stock ROM (Oreo).

Replies in this thread (#452, #453 and #201) seem to suggest call recording should be working. Would you be able to throw me few suggestions/ideas?

Thanks for your time.

I'm using this Magisk module. It's working fine on this ROM:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] odiseo123:
Thanks @Ex novo, that did the trick. It did not work out of the box (no-sound audio file). I had to activate the "Disable battery optimization" option to get the recording with both voices.

I am bit let down that I cannot get the trusty ACR Phone going, neither the other two which also seem to be well established and integrate a bit better into the dial pad. That said the issue may be too fringe to worth investigating further.

Thanks a lot for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ex novo:
This recorder has the advantage that it can record WhatsApp calls too (by selecting "Mic" on recording source in the app settings). The disadvantage is that whenever you turn on or restart the device you have to remember to open the app to start recording otherwise the app won't start.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] odiseo123:
Thanks for the heads up. I was assuming it would work all the time after enabling the "Disable Battery Optimization" option, but you are right. The app becomes inactive after rebooting. This can be sorted with Tasker, Macrodroid or Automate. As a cost free solution, I went with a fiber in Automate.

You may already know this, but updating Axet's Call Recorder app via F-Droid seems to break things. After updating I lost the audio in the recordings, despite re-enabling recording, re-granting permissions and tweaking "Recording Source" and "Encoding" options. Despite the module stating compatibility with app updates, it is probalby better to stick to the apk that comes bundled in the Magisk module. For me this "old" version does what it should, so I will leave it as is.

Thanks for your helpful comments.

Seems one is limited to 10 zips by TWRP. How do you flash more zips than that or must I flash restart back into recovery and flash the remaining zips?

Also. My install no longer allows different restart options. When I used the Android 11 version I could reboot into recovery. Now I can just reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ryan 23:
@faramirza start by flashing 10 zips and when it's done just flash the other zips before rebooting.

About rebooting into recovery it seems that it hasn't been implemented into the rom yet.

Maybe you can give us the possibility to deactivate ipv6 for wifi.

I have now tried twice to install the latest update from 16.12.21 (Wipe Dalvik Cache, System and Cache, Install LineageOS plus Bitgapps). Each time my S7 got stuck in the boot logo. In both cases, booting stopped in the beginning as if to enter the PIN number, then the message "System is shutting down" appeared. After that, the continuous boot loop occurred again. Switching off in between did not bring any success either, the looping continued. I have now reset to the previous version.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
Why would you wipe system if you are doing an update what you did with that is break addon.d script.. decide if you want to do clean or dirty flash and if you just want to update to new version flashing rom + bitgapps and wiping cache and dalvik is enough (magisk auto reflashing thanks to addon.d), tho some mods you might be using can conflict with updates

edit: issue was caused by broken gapps extras module, user was able to update after removing said module

Switched back to 18.1.

I needed to do some maintence work on my router and I expected my phone to switch to "mobile wireless".

It didn't, plus some apps crashed. Once the router was restarted I expected the WiFi to reconnect, this did not happen.

rebooting did not solve the problem. I think I may have problem with the underlying firmware - caused by magisk?

I got bootloop recently after accidentally flashing the wrong version of TWRP because the TWRP app (on my phone) downloaded the wrong variant of latest TWRP even though I think I selected correctly, maybe this is what happened to you too. To solve it I used my computer to download the correct variant (for this phone) of the latest version of TWRP from their website, and used ODIN to flash it to my phone. Afterward everything went smoothly with installing this ROM which I am very satisfied with. I recommend you follow this procedure. Get the correct variant of latest TWRP from the website and use Odin to flash it.

Remark on bootloops:

I'm still on LOS 16 but I will flash 19 during the holidays. (Everybody needs a working phone the days before Christmas :) )

But: Yesterday I read it's possible to flash "img"-files via TWRP. Therefore I switched to TWRP (3.6.0), looked for that functionality, and also cleared the caches (advanced) and that was enough. I had a bootloop.

Solutions: Used the Wipe cache slider and reflashed the already installed zips. Just trying to reflash the already installed zips was not enough, I got Error 7.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Galaxy86:

I tried to install Magisk in recovery but it failed.

What I did:

+ Downloaded Magisk v23 apk form homepage, renamed it to zip, and copied to phone

+ Switched to recovery, install --> "Zip file is corrupt!"

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Lwysf:
of course it will give an error, this process does not exist. renaming an apk to zip doesn't make it a zip, let alone make it flashable by twrp. you need to install the apk and patch the rom kernel and then install the kernel by twrp
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] maximesharp:
TWRP does show the magisk.apk file even if you don't rename it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Galaxy86:
"Rename the .apk file extension to .zip, for example: Magisk-v22.0.apk → Magisk-v22.0.zip. If you have trouble renaming the file extension (like on Windows), use a file manager on Android or the one included in TWRP to rename the file." (from https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html)

Thanks for that hint!

It really was the zip. Downloaded the one from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases and I was able to flash the apk with TWRP.
