[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ivan_Meler:
mic sensitivity is not any lower than on stock its actually a bit higher, reason why i lowered is that samsung limited mixer gains in frameworks and aosp doesnt do that.. People tend to take anything from changelog as a placebo so even if i dont change something and post it in changelog they would say they feel the difference
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] XV1001:
I honestly did not study the changelog at that time, as i never used a custom rom for the s7 prior. Only for Moto Gs in the past. First ROM tried was 19.1

I liked everything, camera was fine too for VDO calls (it has network bottleneck anyway with most applications) , i didnt notice microphone issues myself, but it was my SO complaining, and hanging up/re calling 3 times to check what was wrong, it was then after that ,that i told i was on a different android ROM. Havent tested it with video recording, but if she noticed it that badly while barely knowing what a ROM is(let alone changelogs); then i have to believe by that.

After flashing stock rom, i dived into different threads about S7 microphone issues with various ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] lebon00:
Hi,

Thank you Kootee83 for this list.

I am posting about the sound problems during phones calls. (echo and bad quality sound)

I have tried LOS from 17.1 to 19.1 and I have always a problem with echo on the other party for LOS17.1 and LOS 18.1 with good sound quallity on my side.

For LOS 19.1 I have echo on the other party and bad sound quality on my side.

A lot of replies stated a hardware problem on some phones.

But I installed Havos OS 3.x and with this ROM I don't have any issue with echo or bad call quality and this, on two different S7( Canadian versions).

So can someone please try to explain to me why the argument about different hardware is the cause for these problems still valid.

Why for my two phones Havoc OS 3.x is working perfectly, what is the difference between Havoc 3.x and the LOS.

I am not a coder and I mean no disrespect for those who build amazing ROMS but the sound problem is a real bummer.

Thank you all.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kootee83:
Hi @lebon00 ,

I don't know details but in fact I've seen in many comments that Havoc OS behaves differently even though it states it is based on AOSP like LOS is. I believe Havoc may have proper settings in the mixer_paths_0.xml for your phone. Seems that different settings are needed for different S7 devices.

I've spent a lot of time trying to find a ROM that would work good enough, that I could use it daily for calls without sound issues like echo. I don't need any of those fancy tunes and improvements, just reliable working phone :)

Unfortunately I haven't found anything good for my S7 better than Android 9 (NFE port ROMs). FloydQ is quite good, but unfortunately has also echo in some applications. On the other hand all those stock based ones (including FloydQ) have the fingerprint issue - it's a bit annoying. So, summing up, best reliable ROM for S7 is still Android 8. If you can live with not working fingerprint in some banking apps then Android 9 (NFE port) like LightROM would be my choice. If you wouldn't care about echo in some communication apps then you'd have more choices.

At my phone (a device bought in Germany) nothing changed, I currently use LOS 17.1-20220407 version.

This:

LED stops working after some time

I have also since the beginning.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] rho-bot:
Same also happened already in LOS16, first LED stops for notifications, then also for charging indication.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] townkat:
i think i may have found a new one too, it is the wifi, after several hours on 5ghz (more time on 2.4) it disconnects and can't find any network until i turn off then on the wifi toggle

in the meantime untill it disconnects some hicups do happen, like some big lags in the game "war alliance" or even game disconnect for "8 ball pool", but on ookla speedtest nothing appears, speeds seem fine

tested on crdroid 7.13 and lineageos 18.1, will test more builds soon

anyone else can confirm please (wifi must be used, some traffic must happen)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kootee83:
Hi @townkat , I must tell you that I've stopped using S7 because I couldn't find good enough custom ROM. I decided I'd rather buy a new phone model, than spend my time and money (as donation for supporting developers) on years of trying making S7 work with new software.

Anyway I don't want to discourage you, and if you'd like to create a new thread copying my data from this thread and updating/modifying it I'm totally ok with that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] townkat:
why not continue here? i think it's just fine

even if you'll not continue here with your interest, you had a great ideea with this thread so big thnks ;)

[POCO M2 Pro Questions & Answers] imhariiguess:
I switched from dotOS to Pixel Experience because I wanted to get a taste of A12. After the change my phone started behaving strangely. It doesn't turn up on Windows File Explorer anymore and ADB doesn't detect my phone unless I set it to USB charge only. Plus the biggest problem of them all- TWRP doesn't work anymore. Whenever I reboot my phone it boots into TWRP, and the screen keeps flashing at the TWRP logo. The only way to boot to A12 is to enter fastboot and hit fastboot continue in the CMD. I'm at my wits end here and honestly a bit desperate. I have attached the logs from when the TWRP screen kept flashing. I wiped my device completely before installing Pixel Experience and I think that may be the problem. I fear that I may have sort of permanently damaged my phone or something. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Could someone help me to solve my problem? It's a Poco F3 256GB/8GB, there are random reboots several times a day, every day, app crashes, as a possible solution I have installed different roms and updated my kernel, but nothing works, I would really appreciate your support guys.

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] mentaiko.:
Same issue here, random reboots when using the phone, apps crashes randomly or freezes. Thought I could live with it but seems to get worst. Been trying to find a solution forever since, this the first time i've found someone with very similar issues. I'm on MIUI Global 14.0.7.

Also, disabling automatic brightness and Memory extension doesn't seem to fix the problem.

It happens so randomly I have no idea where to start, are there any ways to access crash logs or something to figure out if its a software/hardware issue?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Kevin Costner Yellowstone:
Yes where are you from
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] lukasz_m:
If you have screen freeze and then reboot, it is probably a crash of kernel.

I am almost sure it is something with drivers, as it happens on some other ROMs (PE, LineageOS)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] iSlaker:
guys,

i been trying to get help for a predictive text problem i'm having since i installed pdaviet manilla2d v18 on my hermes. it comes with those diamond keypads and predictive text for enu/esp/fra/ger/ita but not for portuguese (??????)

this rom is special cause it managed to get manilla2d working fine on hermes and still letting me do everything else, without compromising much speed. it's a found and i want to keep it until i find something better.

this rom won't let me install this cab HTC EzInput QVGA FullKbd 0409-RC1.cab which contains the same keypads but with various language packs. it will end up with the insufficient system permissions message. i did get it working on the V19 but this rom version is so buggy i had to step back to V18. I have also tried installing separate language packs but they won't work.

this insufficient system permissions problem has been covered before in this forum but has not been resolved as the one who had the problem found a different cab to use.

the only ways i see for fixing this would be get rid of security - which i've already tried using a microsoft program that keeps querying device for ever and ever and won't let me change anything or maybe finding another similar keypad kit with language packs that won't bump into the security level of this rom.

chef has released V20, will try this too in the mean time.

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Yepi69:
If you have the original stock ROM for your device and your bootloader is locked you don't need to worry, it'll certify itself after a few days. It's mostly visual anyways since you're getting Google's Services.

You can also use the Safety net app to verify if it's certified or not.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] GreMaxonForPda:
Cts profile match: fail....
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Yepi69:
Are you using a stock ROM and you have a locked bootloader? If you're rooted then that explains why it's not certified
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] GreMaxonForPda:
Yes, stock rom (ID). Without root, bootloader is locked.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Yepi69:
By ID you mean Indonesia? Is that the ROM it came with your device or was it Global?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] GreMaxonForPda:
Yeah, Indonesia. I bought with global rom, but reflash it. I haven't this problem about 3-4 month ago...
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] qahnaarin7:
I have the same. Bootloader locked, no root. The firmware is global.

What I tried to do:

1. Manual certification through the Google website and sat waiting for a week, periodically cleaning the data of Google services and the market.

2. Flash all possible (including earlier) versions of miui with a bootloader block

3. Clean Google acc: the entire history of Google devices, as well as delete all backup copies of data, gpay payments, and in general everything that is possible.

4. Create a new Google account and log in through it

5. Clean all system partitions of the phone, flashing everything from scratch (including persist with dtbo

6. Flash via edl mode
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Yepi69:
Don't flash earlier versions of MIUI, you can brick your device because anti rollback.

As I said, it'll certify itself on its own.

Each time you boot your device for the first time a new ID is generated for Google's Services, that ID takes some time to get certified and the process is automatic.

Same thing happened to me when I flashed custom ROMs and it'd fix it self days later

Hey bro I am using In 2B as well you getting into bootloop make me feel u have bootloader oem unlock & at the same time you were trying to apply custom recovery & you got stuck in boot loop was that the case? Because in that case you will be needing a stock recovery with scatter file & sp flash tool.

Exactly same thing happened with me yesterday when I was trying to root my Micromax Canvas Tab p681 at evening i got into bootloop & till night I fix it by flashing stock recovery & reflashing custom from after factory reset but in my case my rom was stock & boot.img was stock only recovery file was messed up & I had stock recovery handy.

Before getting stuck in bootloop I had did below silly mistake:

1) perform oem unlock

2) flash recovery right after performing oem unlock

What actually happens after performing oem unlock (in lay man's language), when you perform oem unlock a factory reset is performed from your stock recovery, before performing factory reset bootloader verify previous version of recovery before booting to recovery. When you perform oem unlock you instruction bootloader to perform factory reset but when you flash custom recovery immediately after performing oem unlock (without allowing factory reset) your bootloader verify your previous recovery when it detect previous version is different than that of current version you end up in bootloop. Solution is to flash stock recovery via sp flash tool but your scatter file should be correct. There are step I can guide you.

I had been root my Android seens Android 1.6 I have plenty of experience with bootloops ;).

But before suggesting you any further & try anything out of desperation answer my questions point wise in detail:

1) What were you exactly doing when you stuck in bootloop?

2) Do you have stock recovery file?

3) From which site you downloaded your resources for flashing (link)

4) Does your hardware specs match with my hardware specifications attached?

Do you have an unlocked bootloader?

Did I boot into fastboot "adb reboot-fastboot" or bootloader "adb reboot-bootloader" ?

You need to flash in fastbootd, not bootloader.

If you sign magisk patched boot.img and create a signed custom vbmeta, you can flash via the SPD Research Tool without an unlocked bootloader.

This boot.img and custom vbmeta sign.img is for Micromax in 2b so, this will not work on your symphony z33 but if you can flash Micromax in 2b stock rom on your device this Will work.. you need to flash it with spd upgrade tool.. after finishing the pac File loading go to image folder of SPD upgrade tool, delete current boot.img and vbmeta sign img and copy there this magisk patched signed boot img and custom signed vbmeta and start flashing..your phone will normally start booting without any problem I'f you don't flash with spd upgrade tool and try to flash it with fastbootd then it will boot and the phone will show boot animation but it's endless your phone never will make it to homescreen ,, most people don't know that a frimware of Micromax in 2b can be flashed in symphony z33 and it fully works
[General Topics] Crayon Shin-chan:
simple download the img of the rom you want to use and then flash it using Fastbootd make sure your device bootloader is unlocked and you need adb & fastbootd drivers in order to flash it without these drivers no command will work (fastbootd and fastboot are not Same) and another thing is you need to choose a img under 3gb if the size is bigger then 3 gb it will not flash because of the system partition size even if it gets flashed the device just bootloops ...so better to try slim variant if you want to flash android 12 GSI

How to flash Gsi on Micromax IN2b

Needed Drivers- Fastbootd driver and platform tools and for adb drivers use 15sec adb installer(Latest Version)

--commands--

adb devices

(in order to check if the device is successfully detected )

adb reboot bootloader/Or you can direct reboot into fastbootd using

adb reboot fastboot

fastboot devices

(to check device is detected by pc while in fastboot/fastbootd)

fastboot reboot fastboot (do this only if you use adb reboot bootloader if you entered adb reboot fastboot then skip it)

fastboot getvar is-userspace(in order to check that device is in fastbootd mode)

If you have active slot a then do

fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a

If you have active slot b then do

fastboot delete-logical-partition product_b

– you can check current active slot by

fastboot getvar all

fastboot flash system system.img(make sure to rename the ROM img FILE name to system)

fastboot reboot recovery

★then do wipe from recovery and reboot★

Please note:- if you want to use magisk then you need to flash magisk patched signed boot.img because you deleted product partition no matter if it's was flashed before..

So for this after flashing system do

fastboot flash boot boot.imgand then fastboot flash boot_b boot.img and then use next command and wipe/factory reset from recovery
