[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
Devs are very much appreciated, great work.

I just flashed 20 but I encountered an issue; I have a520F but when flashing with the latest 20 zip TWRP says the phone is a720F so some apps Wont work apps. I would really appreciate if someone has an Idea, something to keep in mind this didn't happen to me with 18.1 because of course the zips are separated. Its either my phone or the script in the zip is faulty. If just someone can show me the instructions to fix!

Peace, and have a good day!

I noticed this: take a look at the screenshot. Last line says Fingerprint: A7 not A5.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] kp_s:
Thanks! My main problem is: I can't flash anything, because the recovery (TWRP) isn't accessible. I only can get into download mode. Anything I might try from there?

I can reflash TWRP through Heimdall which reports success, but TWRP remains stuck in its splash screen.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Kspiderman:
If you still have access to the download mode, you can use Odin to flash the original ROM

Thanks, I will give this a try this weekend when I am back home again.

Hello from Germany, I have a question, I have LineageOS 20 installed. The banking app says it is rooted and cannot run the banking app. It's not rooted, what can I do? Do I need to install magisk + Shamiko? Does that work then? And one more thing, isn't it possible to have the battery displayed as a percentage?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
I need help with 20, when I try to flash it, it recognizes my A520F as A720F, any ideas what might be causing that?

Hello thanks for the link, I'm not the only one there, so I've tried everything, the Commerzbank Germany banking app doesn't work. I installed Magisk+Safetynet+Shamiko and banking is also activated in DenyList. zygisk is activated, is there another rom with android 13 where the banking app works? So the Rom is useless for me, I did everything right.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
If you r using A5/7 2017, try 18.1 and see!. Because lineage 20 on those devices is not official. If not, so the problem is with lineage it itself
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Tombay1969:
Hello, I downloaded the 18.1, there are 3 files, Recovery Image, Boot Image and Lineage 18.1

I only need the 18.1OS if I install it with TWRP right? Do you maybe also have a link for GAPPS? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
The post has every link you need for a proper flash, twrp, lineage, and Gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Jmackley:
In future to downgrade you need to wipe everything including data and system. Try flashing the newest version of either TWRP from the website and see if they boot and you can wipe those partitions. Updating to the latest TWRP should fix your issue, however If you're still having issues, run adb shell and then run rm /data/system/storage.xml and boot straight to TWRP which should now work. Once in TWRP erase system and data partitions and then clean install whatever ROM you want
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Jmackley:
You need to flash the zip file for 18.1 that you downloaded without extracting it, recovery image is not necessary unless you want the recovery. Boot image should be contained within the zip file you flash, so that will be installed automatically
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Option58:
Hi, not sure I understand what you mean. I think it's normal.

SDK 33 = android 13 = lineage 20

SDK 30 = android 11 = lineage 18.1

Each version has their own suitable google apps.

The devices are very similar so I created one unified build. It's normal and it won't affect anything.

For the banking app try following this guide https://telegra.ph/Passing-safetynet-with-Magisk-v24-and-newer-03-03

(credits to Simon1511)

Not running this ROM right now to verify, but having battery display as a percentage should be in the ROM.

Try Settings > System > Status bar.

Sorry for this, we actually have mirrors other than Mega. I linked them in the OP now. But please also try to keep the discussion respectful.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Kspiderman:
Sure, glad I could help!
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Kspiderman:
Since this ROM has SELinux in permissive mode, banking apps won't work at all, I tried offical ways of changing the SELinux mode but it doesn't change, maybe because it's unofficial ROM, so yeah
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
I just uploaded a screenshot, could you take a look

When I tried 20 some apps wouldnt work for me.

I use aurora store and I tried installing some apps, its says your device is not compatible.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
And another thing, with 18.1 NikGapps stock (including pixel launcher) works fine but with 20 pixel launcher app keeps stoping. And because it replaces the AOSP launcher I ended up without a launcher.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] Tombay1969:
I have the 18.1 on it with Gapps from pico, everything works with the banking app too. I tried Magisk on Lineage 20, but it still didn't work. Had already tried it with another cell phone with magisk at the beginning of the year and it worked there, unfortunately not here with A5 2017. At least I have Android 11 on it now and not the slow 8
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
Could U show me a way so I can make a file only for A5, what do I have to change in the zip file??
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] kp_s:
I did that with a stock rom taken from sammobile. Odin reported success, but again, the device booted into TWRP with the frozen splash screen described earlier.

When describing my problem, I was already on the newest version of TWRP.

But removing storage.xml, as described in your post above, was the game changer! TWRP came back to live (I think it was in some kind of a loop before which quickly drained the battery), and I could restore a backup to boot into LOL 20 again. For now, I will stick to this version, as the A5 is my backup phone for my Pixel which is sent for repair. I'll give flashing to 18.1 a try later.

Big thanks for all who helped!

And if it couldn't import, then you can export the contacts in a form of a .csv file from google contacts website on your pc, and import them on your phone

I'm having major battery issues with this ROM on my A5 (rooted with Magisk v26.1). It lasts fine throughout the day without much usage, but always dies overnight. System battery monitor says Bluetooth is taking ~230%. GSam says pretty much the same. I also tried riseKernel 1.11, but no difference. Any ideas?

Edit: If it helps, I've also got MindTheGapps as found on the LineageOS wiki. Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) ROMs, Kernels, Re] EzioWolf:
Something is not right with 18.1, why does it eatup so much battery everytime you turn off the screen. I put it (screen off) for 10 min wifi on at 53% when turned it back on and guess what!, 45%. Is it just me.

[General Questions and Answers] awilbourn:
I have the new HTC Fuze phone. AT&T has an icon on the main slider bar, how can I get my own icon on that bar? According to the manual "You cannot replace a slot in the AT&T tab with another program", so makes it seem it is not just a registry entry or config file somewhere.

I have an app that when running is in the system tray on the today screen, but with the flow 3d enabled I can't get to it and bring it up. I have to turn off flow 3d.

I'm sure there is someone out there that can give some sort of direction.

Thanks.

Downright the best F-droid client when it comes to UI/UX. I'm glad it wasn't deprecated in favor of Neo Store, as iirc it was planned initially.
[Android Apps and Games] zimral.xda:
I use it since 2 months on my Pixels with CalyxOS. It is far better than the native FDroid client.

Just one question: Where do it store the downloaded apk files? Had a quick look but was not able to locate their location.

it is in /data/user/0/com.looker.droidify/cache/releases

are you sure you are using a file manager with root access?
[Android Apps and Games] zimral.xda:
As far as i know i use a filemanager without root access. Until your reply i do not saw a reason for using one with root. Can you recommend one or do i have to "root" my phone. What was the reason for hiding the downloaded apk's? The APKPure app is putting them into the users download folder. This seems to be a good place for them.
[Android Apps and Games] Walden0:
i wud recommend mixplorer but if your phone isnt rooted already, it wud be of no use.
[Android Apps and Games] LooKeR_ScReamY:
Downloaded apks can be found at /data/data/com.looker.droidify/cache/releases

ROOT REQUIRED TO ACCESS
[Android Apps and Games] Shihabus Sakib Rad:
It would be better if apk could be saved to user defined location
[Android Apps and Games] zimral.xda:
i agree with you. There is no reason to root just to get some downloaded .apk files. Rooting give me more disadvantages, therefore it is useless for me. I stopped using Droid-Ify for this reason. Sad to say, cause the UI is still very good.

I've tried Shaps Advanced configuration tool to toggle the music player volume but it must be designed for the old HTC home because I can't tell any difference even after dropping from 100 to 5 and rebooting.

Any ideas? Is there already a knowledge base on this? If so, please point me there as I've done every search I can think of.

you can use windows media player instead.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] adamandro12:
Yeah. But WMP is much less user-friendly and it doesn't integrate seamlessly with TF3D. If I knew alternatives to TF3D that integrated a good music player on a vga device I would switch. But so far everything I've tried including SBP Shell don't seem to do that well.

Thanks for the suggestion.

TF3D volume too high

Long time after the creation of tis post ...

but I'm experimenting the same issue!

When my volume slider is on the minimum (actually one step above zero), the music volume is still too loud for me.

Has anyone found an issue to that?

Thank's
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] adamandro12:
It's been a long time since I used the Fuze. But as I remember, you could go to the settings in one of the far-right tabs of Touch Flo (if using a customized ROM) and manually change the volume. But it only stayed that way until the next time you changed it. I eventually just bought a set of headphones with their own independent volume slider so I could adjust it that way. It was a clumsy solution and one reason I left Windows Os behind for good. We'll see about their improvements with W7, but I'm skeptical until I see they can get it right.

Hope that helps!

If phone's Android is rooted, if since the Factory Reset no data got/get written to phone's internal storage, then if having access to forensic tools, then it would be possible.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
As @xXx yYy stated. If you have USB debugging enabled on your device and if your device is rooted, it is possible with several different data recovery software tools. But, this is only if the locations where the photos were stored have not been overwritten by new saved data after the factory reset was performed.

If your device isn't rooted, you don't have much chance.

If the locations have been overwritten with new data, you won't be able to recover the data that has been overwritten, but, you "might" be able to recover anything that hasn't been overwritten after the factory reset, provided that you can root your device.
[General Questions and Answers] TechTagLagger:
Hello, I'm new here, I've been dealing with certain ROM mods for a little while. My test device is an old Samsung Galaxy S4 mini (GTI9195). Now I've been sitting for a few days trying to figure out how to bring my device up to date as best as possible. Lineage OS seemed the best to me. Unfortunately there is no officially confirmed software for my device directly from Lineage, which is why I looked elsewhere. I came across this thread on XDA: https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-i9190-i9192-i9195-l520-r890-unofficial-11-0-0-lineageos-18-1-for -s4-mini.4189967/ . The user arco68 is, so to speak, the boss among S4 mini modifications. Unfortunately, I can't find exact instructions anywhere (especially for the recovery) on how to install all the packages correctly. That's why I researched. I was able to record various steps, but cannot determine if they are correct. Can someone on this forum please help me? My steps:

1. Turn on developer options

2. Turn off OEM encryption (if available)

3. USB debugging on.

4. Download and install Android platform tools in Path

5. Download and zip Magisc

7. Put the phone in bootloader/fastboot/download mode (volume down + home)

8. Flash Team Win Recovery Project (or other custom recovery).

9. Restart phone and boot into recovery mode (volume up + home + power)

10. Erase all data

11. Copy Google Apps to Phone (Optional)

12. Copy Lineage OS (or other custom rom) to phone

13. Install packages one by one (OS first)

14. Reboot device

15. Wait and set up
