Lucky you. I tested phone calls again and again for monts as you see from my posts (on different s8 (g950f) devices, total I have it 4). Allways the same.

I can also be that s8 affect this bugs and s8+ not.

Hi

I have installed the LOS in a Pixel 6a, when i start the phone i get the message for transfer the apps from my old phone to this one, I would like to know if i can do that and I will not get all the google APPS I do not want?

Or what is the best way to transfer the info from my old phone to this one with LOS?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kundifon:
When you install custom rom, you have to flash gapps at the same time - at least and the best smallest package! All aditional google apps you can later instal from play store. There are some few exception you cannot instal afterward and would not work (or make troubles) after dirty flashing. Android auto is one of these exception and have to be flashed tohether with rom.

Nikgapps have core package and addons so you can flash exactly what you want - not less not more. I prefer core + android auto + maybe dialer, messages, gboard. All others later from play store.

I never trasfer apps from old phone! Take 15 minutes of your time and search for apps on play store or f-droid. You are going to have less troubles if you propper install apps.

To sum up. Clean install of rom, gapps, apps and absolutely no transfer for old phone is the receped how avoid unnecessary problems!

Is it possible to downgrade from this to official stock firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] blainus:
G'day.

I had the same issue after flashing this ROM with caller can hear me, but I can't hear them.. The fix for me was changing the APN profile.

My carrier has two default profiles, and the one it actually defaults to, is the wrong one. Switching it worked.

Hope this helps

I have this bug where every other restart the Sound and mic completely cuts off, developer options Bluetooth Codecs are ALL greyed out when this happens as well, any solutions?

Running it on a note 8 on which all the sensors other than the Fingerprint scanner stopped working after a Samsung update when it was stock. No matter how many firmware flashes I've done this no change, hence rocking this ROM. But now audio is an issue, please help out.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] tacokoneko:
Thank you very much so much for continuing to release updates to this because I had the April 2023 version and I had a problem where I accidentally spilled water on the SM-G955F and an SM-G960U OFW that was right next to it at the same time and they both said "USB port disabled" but then after 3 hours the water was gone and the SM-G960U OFW no longer said "USB port disabled' but the SM-G955F with this ROM continued to say "USB port disabled" forever even after touching the notification and touching "Enable USB port" and even after I powered off and turned it on again, but then I went to Settings->System->Updater and updated to the July 10 2023 update and after TWRP installed the update and it rebooted I do not see the "USB port disabled" anymore and USB debugging working again!!!

Hi,

I Flashed LineageOS 20.0 on Galaxy s8 but have an issue with "Custom binary blocked by FAP Lock" after installing Familly Link. Is there a trick to do to make Familly Link work on LineageOS 20 and S8? Family link worked without blocking phone on HadesROM v3 but as there are no more updates I's switching to LineageOS.

Thx
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jaggl.at:
Hi, first off all > THX! I love my S8+, why buy a new one when the old is still working ;) Now i am on Android 13! THX!

The major Bug which i can see now is:

Are there any fixes for this Bug???

2 Bug: Volume adjusting and mute not working in active call​

I extend this testing with bluetooth handset on may 2023 build. This time with removed mixer (reiryuki / AOSP-soundfx-Remover ).

This bug is extremely easy to reproduce! Every time you put call on speaker trigers this bug (no bluetooth handset connected). Or if you have connected bluetooth handset also trigers this bug.

Once you triger this bug (put call on speaker or connect bluetooth handset), you loose volume controll and mute function desn't work anymore. Reboot heal this.

Mute doesn't work on speaker, ear phone or bluetooth handset.

Volume adjust doesn't work on speaker, ear phone. For curiosity I tested on wired headphone and is the same. Suprisingly on bluetooth handsed I'm allways able to change volume.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jaggl.at:
Anyone? This Bug turns me crazy :(
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jaggl.at:
Are you using that Rom? Are there any Problems with Volume Control?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] syednawaz:
it's not fixable. it's been there since los20 released. and a lot of people complained. but i guess it is not possible else he would have fixed it. that is also the only reason i am not on LOS. else i was using it on s4 back in 2015-16 and s7 edge later on. but sadly not on s8.

Hi, everyone.

I don't know if it is just me, but since yesterday I've noticed an update available for the regular S8.

Seeing as there is no update post from Ivan and no changelog, I've refrained from installing the update.

Does anyone know anything about this? Especially anyone in the Telegram group… I don't use Telegram, so I wouldn't know.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jaggl.at:
I installed the update without any Problem
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] HiQual:
Ivan mentioned this update in his LOS recent 18.1 post
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] rafael.ruivo:
I'm doing nandroid backups and risking it, so far the latest has worked well. The only change I noticed is that now the updater itself understands when the phone is on the latest version, and stop offering me the update I just installed. However, it still thinks it is on version November 2022 for some reason :-)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Burnzone:

Tried with July builds and latest August build but cant detect any tag on various apps.........
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] spyrou007:
I use NFC nearly everyday. with Google Pay (only).

switching ON/OFF at will.

Maybe you need to make a truly clean install ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Cryslin111:
It was done with format data and rest of steps. Perhaps I need to redo it with august update and see if it fixes.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] rafael.ruivo:

I'm looking to flash this on my GFs' phone so I need a daily driver. I've seen people reporting problems with sound on calls? Is this still a current problem and is there a workaround if so?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] spyrou007:
Hi and welcome, it's true this ROM is not perfect for everyone. and none will ever be , I guess. there seems to be a limitation in the call volume, but this does not impact me so much personally , especially with headphones.

My point is , you may want to try. and then revert it to (unsecure) stock ROM or other custom ROM if this is an issue for her/you.

By all means, post your (and your GF's) experience. it will help.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kundifon:
It's preety unusable such phone if you not hear person on other side. There are more bugs related to call sound. I suggest you LineageOS 17.1 by Stricted. https://xdaforums.com/t/lineageos-2...for-s8-s8-note8.4485525/page-33#post-88768459

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kundifon:
Let me give some advise or guideline what to do that my bank app will work again. They did (Bank app developers) some changes. Overal till now I had no problem with many banking apps but now some particular bank (intesa sanpaolo Bank mobile - Slovenija) drive me crazy.

Phone's are not rooted - no magisk or somewhat installed, all phones has TWRP recovery instaled.

I tried with crDroid on redmi note 7 - problematic banking app works

Then I flashed LineageOS on the same redmi note 7 - bank app DEOSN'T work.

I flashed LineageOS on my galaxy s8, doesn't matter android 10 or 13, always the same - bank app NOT working.

View attachment 5985415

Here you see result tested with Advanced root checker. As you see, LineageOS roms has checkmark at Dangerous Props and as I figured out, this is the cause why this banking app is NOT working.

What is exactly Dangerous Props? What this represents?

And most important for me, What's different about crDroid and how to get rid of the checkmark on LineageOS?

Just to mention, if I root the phone with magisk, some banking apps still works, and some have to be put on deny list. Only mentioned bank (intesa sanpaolo) search for troubles.

EDIT: What to try, that problematic bank (intesa sanpaolo) will work again? Magisk is new to me. Are maybe some magisk modules that is a worth to try with them? Thanks for advises.

As I said, I have had no problems with other banks so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] rafael.ruivo:
Not familiar with this root checker app, but it seems to be complaining about the props file (a set of metadata about the phone that resides in the system folders).

I use a magisk module that reports the contents of the props file of a Pixel Pro 6, but you can change the actual file as well (more complex, of course).

I have a rooted phone and tested on this app, and my device pass on the "dangerous props" checks, maybe it is worth a try for you.

Your mileage may vary. Granted, it can be annoying, and it seems to be tough to squash - but I myself don't really rely that much on the *actual* phone system - nowadays it get mostly spam calls and whatnot. For friends or family, it is mostly Viber or WhatsApp :-).

In any case, this is an unofficial build, so it is not really meant to be a daily driver - if the audio bug don't affect you that much, it offers a wonderful experience (faster than stock, even).

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kundifon:
I have tried your proposal. (On my xiaomi note 7, I use galaxy s8 every day, can't play with it).

Nothing changed, except showing on Play store, that I have pixel 6 pro phone instead of Xiaomi note 7. I put on deny list Advanced root cheker and banks, hided magisk app. There is no more options left. Green checkmark on Dangerous Props still persists.

@rafael.ruivo Woul'd you like to install this problematic banking app (intesa sanpaolo Bank mobile - Slovenija), please. And do simple test:

Install from Play store and just try to run it:

- If the app open, then it probably going to work.

- If app doesn't open, then obviously doesn't work (like now)

Thanks!

off topic: I'm suprised, that you do majority of calls on Viber and Whatsapp. Even more, not every buddy use this apps and havent data conection/wifi permanently turned on. It's much more simple and reliable to just call phone number thrugh operator service. However, never mind.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] rafael.ruivo:
It seems to have worked on my side, and I didn't even had to put it on the deny list. Perhaps there's something else on your props file?

But I haven't tested it in details.

I prefer Open camera, much less troubles. Just install from play store or F-droid and works on every phone. It's one of the best.

I also purchased ProCam X and I'm satisfied. You have HDR right on your fingertips.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Benjamin1989:

is it to be downloaded manually and installed manually ?

Exactly, flash the zip through TWRP or other recovery without wiping anything, when you finish it you can wipe only cache (optional), it's a dirty flash, not clean flash, that's all (y)

Hi. is there any way to fix the audio call bug that has existed forever in this rom? Either patch it in this rom or even Android 14.

It's very easy to replicate, just have bluetooth on, reboot the phone, make a phone call, turn on speaker. The next call you make, you will not be able to hear the person you are calling but they will be able to hear you. Nothing except rebooting seems to bring it back and even that is not guranteed for long...

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] rafael.ruivo:
Just a small PSA, do a nandroid backup first, just in case something goes wrong. Will save you a lot of headache if you decide you need to roll back.

EDIT - and, turns out, this saved me a lot of trouble just now, since my attempts to dirty flash through TWRP failed! It couldn't install the zip file for some reason, gave me this gem:

I tried both from internal storage and external SD, same error. I wiped the system partition just in case it would help, and of course it didn't (the issue was with the source, not destination after all). I restored the backup and started over.

So, if anyone else faces this issue: what worked for me was to sideload it from the PC using ADB, as described here (item 5 onwards is the relevant part). After boot, Magisk asked to be reflashed (it did it itself after a few questions), and that was it :)

Hi everyone,

I am forever grateful for the work done by Ivan. Everything has been fine so far. No issues except for the sim card settings that keep resetting when rebooted.

Aside that, I want to upgrade my NikGapps to the full version. I came across this on NikGapps website and would like to know if anyone has tried it. Would like to tap from your experience before I try it.

Moving from lower to higher variant (for e.g. core -> basic, core -> stock, stock -> full, etc)​

Wipe Runtime Permissions by deleting /data/misc_de/*/apexdata/com.android.permission/runtime_permissions.xml

Dirty Flash NikGapps

Is it okay to follow the above instructions, with no issues? I also have Magisk installed.

Edit: I laid aside my fears and went ahead to upgrade to the latest full version (2023-10-10) from a previous basic version (2023-04-18). Followed the steps below:

Uninstall NikGapps completely (check this for instructions) (using the renaming to UnInstall.zip approach)

Reflash your Rom from recovery (dirty)

Reflash NikGapps

Reboot

Thanks.
