New builds are out, here is a brief changelog

- Added button backlight control

- Unpinned deprecated updatable media apex jar from ram

- Allowed system to override some bluetooth props

- Performance and stability improvements

- Synced with LineageOS source (Almost all of lineageos features should be there and work now)

Almost all of the lineageos features have been ported to Android 13 now and are working, there still might be a missing few compared to android 12.1 like toggle for software buttons which is work in progress at the moment.

There are also some device side changes that should improve performance stability and battery life

Huge thanks to everyone who supported this project with donations that help cover the build server cost and got me coffee which helps speed things up.

Enjoy new builds and stay safe.

That's how I've done it initially, with the September update of 12L and then dirty flashed the A13 and Gapps. No bootloops, or any problems.

I can see improved speed, but i can also see slightly higher battery drain, but, this is a 6 years old phone at the end of the day.

I'm more than sure we all have now a Z Fold, or an iPhone 14 Pro to fall back on to 🤣
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] zzz2002:
You might have later models!

I use it as my daily driver, where it works well.

GPS changes will make its way to 19.1,18.1 and 17.1 builds with october security update

October security update will hopefully be released for all versions (20,19.1,18.1 and 17.1) next week
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mechul-1:
Hello Ivan..thanks for the update..AOD not working after update and the system interface keeps giving a stopped message..before the update everything was almost smooth...I know this build is in testing phase and informational feedback only...we love you...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
uh i cant reproduce that, aod works fine here and nothing is crashing in the background, try reflashing your gapps and removing magisk modules if you have any
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mechul-1:
I'll try a zero reinstall, not an OTA..Thanks for your reply...Good and hard work..

Hello ivan...Nothing changed for me in a clean install...System interface stopped message is constantly on display and AOD yes does not work..I went back to the previous build and zero problems... Just for information purposes and I know it will be fixed. Regards ivan....

Hello ivan...Nothing changed for me in a clean install...System interface stopped message is constantly on display and AOD yes does not work And google backup my account is not working..

has sound on phone calls?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Shiningb:
Reporting that for me, I've done the installation through OTA and the new build is working fine, I don't use AOD though

I have some audio pop and crack noises if I use the device while listening to music

Is there a way to solve this?

Our device should have enough CPU/RAM/zRAM to avoid that, I think.

Edit: Turning on AOD has a strange effect. Apps are instantly closed and the phone is slow to show the lock screen and start SystemUI than in normal situations

This is in my test

I've turned the screen off just for a few seconds to achieve these results by the way
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ahmad-issa1999:
BTW is there any way to turn on AOD while battery saver is on ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Shiningb:
I wonder...

Guess you could find a mod of some sort to do that for you, maybe a Magisk module?

As far as I'm aware, these two functions are contrasting to each other and thus we weren't given the choice to keep both on through normal means.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ahmad-issa1999:
I've well deeply searched for a magisk module for that but i didn't manage to find

Also i tried some apps but they all were eating battery, except one that was good with battery consumption in the bg but it stopped the ability to toggle battery saver so i ended up removing it as well
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:

Hey everyone, what folder are OTA updates stored? I'm gonna go and try to delete them to save space
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] florin_stann:
You can delete them straight from where you downloaded and installed them. Just click the 3 dots and delete.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] ismael almora:
Does the battery perform well as with the 12? The most important thing for me is the behavior of the battery, could you help me with that information? Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] florin_stann:
The best battery is with A12.

13 has more drainage when in use, but the same stand by efficiency.

(Sadly, I've sold my beloved S7 edge now, so i won't be able to use this ROM)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] azizaniii_:
Hi, Ivan. Now that i've been using this room for 'about a week as a daily driver, i found that the second sim card doesn't give 4G network if being used as a mobile network internet. I only notice this problem recently as i need to use 2 sim cards for these 2 days. As soon as i place back my sim card to the first slot, the sim card give 4G network again.

Is there any Gcam we can use? 📸 *Android 13*
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] azizaniii_:
You can try Gcam exynos since the app didn't crash on my phone so i assume Gcam Exynos can run without problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] old one2:
I use hedgecam2.

Works well and gives good results.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] biso46:
I've been using ZGcam on Lineage 19.1 and it has been the best so far, sometimes freezes view finder after taking a photo but switching to a different mode and back again fixes it. Don't know how well will it work with A13.

Suport kernel moro?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] eGo4u.:
Hi all,

first of all, thanks for all the work.

I noticed that I am not able to connect to 5ghz networks after installing this rom.

Is there any way to fix that?

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
I only use 5ghz network and had no such issues, did you change your mac address in past with some root apps or magisk modules?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] eGo4u.:
No i didnt. But i found out what the problem was. My ssid is invisible and when i add a new network on the phote it does save it but newer shoes up on the network list. Now i turned the ssid to visible and the device connected. So i think there is a problem wich invisible ssids.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
you would also have to update gapps and magisk if you had it installed but it could lead to issues if you use different sized gapps package than you used in android 12.1, so i wouldn't recommend it, at least not without a backup

I tried all methods to reinstall twrp and all send me error

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] GaucovyAero:
Hi Ivan, good job on the ROM. Two bugs/things ima point out tho. First which has been mentioned above ^^^, the default Trebuchet launcher accounts for 2 or 3-button virtual screen navigation even if you are using the physical buttons (multitasking, home and back virtual buttons), which basically means that if you don't choose to use gesture navigation, the icons on the home screen will have padding as if the virtual buttons were there, except that they aren't.

Second thing I wanna mention is that Mobile data usage tracking isn't working (it was working on Lineage 19.1 from what I remember). It's always showing 0B total usage, not sure if there's a fix for that.

Device: S7 Edge SM-G935F

edit: note that im still on the whatever update that was before the update of today, i will try updating first

edit: the bug with trebuchet got fixed, but a new bug appeared (the aosp keyboard is now only usable in landscape mode, its out of screen on portrait). updated via ota update and then twrp 3.6.2 from the official twrp website, im using magisk tho. my mobile operator is t-com, or telecom, telekom, t-mobile, no idea how its called, the pink thing basically
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mauam:
Hi, today had some issues with my primary phone, so I inserted the sim card on my s7e but it's not working. I even clean flashed the ROM with the sim inserted but it's not even detected. Anyone knows how to solve this?

Edited: ok, I fixed the imei & baseband by flashing the G935FXXU8EUE1-DevBase v7.4 rom, then Los 20 again & the sim card works perfectly now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Ivan_Meler:
New build is up that should address some discrepancies from previous build (like missing color choice when changing wallpaper)

Hello everyone,

Am I the only one that has problem with the screen when going out of lock?

Sometime my screen stays black for maybe 20~30 seconds before working again when I unlock my phone.

I feel the vibration and hear the sound that my phone unlocked but the screen remains black...

This happens on an SM-G935F with Ivan's latest build.

Thanks in advance for your help!!

Here the only-horizontal issue is only present if i dont have a navbar, if i have a navbar set, then its fine, everything is working fine with other keyboards even if i dont have a navbar, just not the included aosp.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] drbauer:
Hi, been using this for few days now and noticed two things - i know that it is advised to post logs but i feel like these things don't need them

First thing is the hw button backlight - the timeout works only if user interacts with the screen - turns off when screen is touched and the timeout is done - otherwise stays on until user screen interact

Second thing is audio crackle whilst using bluetooth headset (og galaxy buds & spotify) when the device is under load - it is fine 99% of the time but sometimes when the cpu is under heavier load for a short peak, the sound crackles (did not test with other bt headset/aux yet)

Otherwise, this rom is insane, the stock rom was nearly unusable, thing thing absolutely rocks

I am looking forward to new updates :))

Thanks Ivan

Another ? Are antivirus app like "avg" worth having or are just a waste of money?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] mauam:
A waste of money, battery & other phone's resources. If you're uncertain about any app, simply use virus total online site. I can understand why someone uses an av on a PC but on Android I do not. Also remember that the best antivirus is your brain (common sense).

Hello, excelent rom congrats for that. I don't know how to report properly a bug (i don't know if it's one) but I leave my comments here: I got a problem with facial verification on an app that because the lag on shutter it doesn't focus and can't verify its me.

I don't know if I explain properly the error but that whats happening to me, after that everything is good.

Just happened, the phone started to heat up and drain battery excessively, accubattery showing ~60%/h. Seems like it has stopped after 30mins. Tried a reboot but no change. Not sure what to check if it happens again

Hello everybody,

I would like to install this ROM but unfortunately I can't install the TWRP Recovery because the Secure Download remains on "Enable".

From "developer options" I enabled "OEM Unlock" but nothing changes.

Can you help me?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] EdgeLover:
I just installed it and I had trouble with the latest TWRP on my EDGE. I ended up using 3.6.2. I don't know if this relates to your issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] EdgeLover:
I've tested it and so far it runs very smooth, thank you for your work :). However, I encounter something: The speech quality when calling somebody is very poor (not matter if via loudspeaker or directly on the ear). The person on the other end of the call also reports an echo (both via the normal phone call and via Whatsapp call).Has anybody else observed something similar?

Funny enough this only occurs on calls. If I record audio via Whatsapp for instance, the quality is good.

EDIT: I just saw this comment

Unfortunately it seems to be. Do you know if there is a way to fix it?

E2: Since I am not the only one, I think that it would be fair to potential users to mention these issues under "not working". I called a couple of people today and they said, it makes no fun to talk with that kind of low quality and echo. Since calling people is one of the main features, I think it should be mentioned.

None the less, I donated a coffee for your efforts :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] GaucovyAero:
Yep, always use 3.6.2_9-0, 3.7.0 just does not work for some reason

Calling through bluetooth handsfree is very buggy. Any solution?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Rec] Mita99:
A follow up on my #133 post - more than a week daily usage experience:

- no echo on in or outcoming calls

- no problem with handsfree bluetooth connection setup and voice quality. My factory car bluetooth module is going into 15 year old and it is amazing that phone is able to connect and operate.

- there was no freeze at all, the phone was not restarted this period

- battery usage is acceptable - battery savings on -, there is not a sensible difference between the stock A8 and the new A13. I think my usage pattern is about the same as it was.

- third party backup is working but do not expect that the app data restore will be successfull all the time, it is very app dependent

- password manager is working, syncing to cloud and back without any problem. I am very pelased with the Keepass sytem on the Android and on PC and Mac. Integration with Ubikey 5 NFC is flawless.

- Google 2FA Authenticator, Yubico Authenticator is working without any problem. One of the reason to left stock 8A was the problem with reading QR codes in Auth apps. This is completely cured with A13.

- banking app is working, Magisk doing its job.

- Found only one country specific app in my app galery which crash after start, luckily it is not important anymore.

- Wifi disappeared two times in this period. Simple wifi switch off - on in the phone settings resolved the issue.

- Wifi hotspot - no problem, working

- 4G working but sped is not tested

- GPS is OK, Waze, Google maps working well

- Still learning the UI stuff, day by day new things pop up to solve but it is manageable. No written guide on UI as far as I know therefore trial and error on every problem.

What I find is not working and out of the list of the first post of Ivan:

- Settings Battery - Battery Manager: Use battery manager option is switched on but no apps reported as one draining the battery which is a bit suspicious.

Overall I am very satified with this build, again thank you Ivan. This job is well done.

I am going to update the security patches only. Some help is appreciated in advance from the senior forum members how to do that properly, I would not like to mess up this working install at all.

If anybody need a function test I am willing to do that within certain extent.
