crDroid 8? crDroid 9? crDroid 10?​

No one has gotten Android 14 running on the S6 yet so as of right now, no crDroid 10. While I would love to do a port of 8 or 9, sadly SamsungExynos7420's source code does not build for Android 12 or 13. In android_hardware_samsung_slsi_exynos7420, mobicore/daemon/Common/NetlinkConnection.cpp gives a build error, in samsungexynos7420/android_hardware_samsung_slsi-linaro_openmax, videocodec/enc/ExynosVideoEncoder.c gives a build error, and in samsungexynos7420/android_hardware_samsung_slsi-linaro_exynos, gralloc/mapper.cpp and gralloc/format_chooser.cpp give build errors. I have notified the SamsungExynos7420 team about this, if these issues are fixed, I will work on porting crDroid 9.

I have performance issues!​

To improve performance, you can remove GApps if you're using them. GApps use a lot of system resources and will slow down your device significantly. I recommend using MicroG as a Play Services alternative and Aurora Store as a Play Store alternative. If you're rooted with Magisk, qti-mem-opt by yc9559 (link) does improve memory usage (thanks to Aiden2020 for this suggestion). If you have any other performance improvement suggestions, please let me know.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Aiden2020:
Thanks , trying it right away !
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] AVDAIKA:
Thank you for contributing new rom to the forum
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Aiden2020:
First Thank you for porting this amazing rom with latest kernel sources

So i tested the rom and found these issues for now

-volume is low , even on headset

-performances in games are stable , but ui is slow

-battery drains a bit faster , can be improved also

other than that , the build is good and everything seems to work fine

will be great if you can implement the r22p driver in futur update , it will help for better perfs
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
I will look into the battery issues. Volume and r22p driver are known issues with other S6 ROMs too, as of right now there is no fix.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Aiden2020:
Thanks , and what about the lagginess of the ui ?..... volume has been already partialy fixed and r22p succefully iplemented in the Android 13 last build of fakemanoan.

Im not a daily user of the s6 , i only test and report to help devs and the s6 users , and i think its a good phone with potential , it was already advanced for its time when it came out in 2015 , sadly abandoned by samsung , or i should say lucky cause lineage os is a better choice . These phone suffered years of buggy custom roms even its A7 stock rom is bad , So i think it deserves a good build once for all.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] AVDAIKA:
I think the galaxy s6 is a damn phone. It doesn't have a "complete" ROM version for daily use because its source code is really problematic because of many errors that make the ROM developer a headache to fix. error after error. So far only fakemanoa's lineage os is almost stable. But it is facing performance issues.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
Correct, the S6 has problematic source code. Both fakemanoan's and enesuzun2002's source code fails to build to build for Android 12 and Android 13, that's the reason this is an Android 11 based ROM, their source code doesn't build and as far as I know, there's no one else making source code for the S6.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] AVDAIKA:
It can be said that this is an almost dead phone. But I'm still happy that you took the time to create rom, and for me flashing rom is a joy. I can't ask for much more in a phone like that. I just hope the functions work and the battery life balances the performance
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Aiden2020:
thats true , if lineage os had already built at least officiall android 11 roms for the s6 it woulnt be like this ,we would already had a stable source code to build other roms on it and fix tiny probs, but they never did , they took only few models from eatch brand. but it can be fixed , and fakemanoan is looking after this weird performance issues (bad memory managemnt) ... cause i use to test s4 and s5 roms and there is no such problem , fluid! but i think it is fixable, we just need to know how to fix it .

Also i tested a module called Qti memory managemnt, this fixed he half of the problem and about Gapps dont use bitgapps it makes the rom unstable , i tried nickgapps omni and its way better.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
I will look into QTI Memory Management.

I recommend BiTGApps just due to it being one of the lightest, as I mentioned in the thread, GApps will slow your device down a lot, so I recommend using the lightest ones possible, but after doing further testing, yeah it's unstable. I will look into other GApps.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
Did some testing, QTI Memory Management does indeed slightly improve memory usage.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] AVDAIKA:
Im forget to ask you,is this rom for s6 edge or only s6?
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Aiden2020:
Good , this means it can be fixed in the kernel and even improved
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
Standard S6 only.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] AVDAIKA:
If you can,you should build universal like fakemanoa.It will great
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
I don't feel comfortable building a ROM for the S6 Edge as I don't have an S6 Edge to test with, and I don't want to release a ROM without testing it. If I get an S6 Edge in the future, I will add S6 Edge support.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
I have discovered a new issue. If using an MVNO, it'll show your carrier as the host network's name rather than your carriers name. For example, if you were using Virgin Plus (that's a Canadian carrier), the carrier shows up as Bell. This might just be an issue with the G920W8, or it might just be an issue with Virgin Plus (my carrier), but I will keep this on the issues list until someone else can test.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] MiraChen:
This rom was great bro, but is have an issue with wifi6 ( not 6ghz ) i can't connect any network from wifi6 both 2.4ghz and 5ghz is just saved. Btw thanks for your work.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
The ROM has been updated. Changelog:

Updated crDroid to v7.37

It is safe to do a dirty flash.

[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
For anyone who wants a newer crDroid, I do have an update on the progress of crDroid 9. Using enesuzun2002's sources, I have managed to get crDroid 9 to build for the S6, however no matter how long you let it sit, the phone does not go past the crDroid splash screen. I've still had no luck building with fakemanoan's source code. I will continue working on crDroid 9, and I hope to have it ported within the next 3 months.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
Another update on newest crDroid - with some patching and help from fakemanoan, I have managed to get a working crDroid 9 build for the S6, I still need to do some more things before I can release it, but I'm expecting crDroid 9 for the S6 to be released by tomorrow, possibly later today.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flaher:
can you update the download link??
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
Why? The current one still works fine.
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Flaher:
oh, its works now
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] gianncap994:
First of all thanks for building this, perfect for the s6 for microg.

The headphone port volume is too low? OTG and bluetooth work fine..
[Galaxy S6 / S6 Edge Unified Development] Lost-Entrepreneur439:
strange, idk what would cause that. I can't test much as most of my focus is on crDroid 9 now, and that's what I'm running on my personal S6.

is it just me or does contacts not scroll well. it seems like when your selecting a city for weather or a program when you hit all programs it scrolls great. Is there a tweak or hack or just another program that has a more user friendly interfacefor contacts?

I have this, which is very good

When you click on "contacts" in Touchflo then "All Contacts" does Icontact come up? If so how did you install it? I do like the interface thank you for the suggestion!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Deleted member 1198227:
If you like you can change the softkey "All Contacts" to run another aplication.

So you can run for example icontacts. For do this you need to use this programm but is abit difficult if you dont know many things

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=407777

Most People change ths softkey "phone" to run "icontact". This can be done easely by many tweaking programs like "advanced configurations" and other programs .
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] HeyRobi:
I downloaded that program but contacts is not an option

So any chance a firmware update could be made for HD1925? This is and continues to be a great ROM! Just curious cause I see the no 5G variant 7TPro, is required to upgrade FW prior to going to A14...
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] ch@k75:
Also if @DarkJoker360 your out there... props on your work! Battery bar will not display like in previous versions of this ROM - any trick to getting it back?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] River90:
Español: Hola quisiera saber si me pueden aclarar por favor si la ROM de crdroid android 14 para One plus 7 t pro McLaren se puede usar para cualquier modelo mi modelo es HD 1925 si no habrá problema y me gustaría se que tipo de recovery twrp puedo usar para no tener ningun problema la verdad es que en esto de instalar ROMs personalizadas soy nuevo y hay muchas cosas que tengo que aprender y me gustaria que me ayudaran para no tener ningun problema al instalar la rom muchas gracias de antemano
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] Victor27587:
Does this ROM pass safety net attestation? I want to use it as a daily driver but I do need my bank apps and Google wallet to work
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
It seems to at the moment. I know on cr 9 one of my banks could see that my phone was not running a rom from a oem. It's not doing that at the moment so it should be good for a daily. I have been using it for three days now with only minor graphical issues. The one thing I have found is the keyboard will overlap the messages and you can't see the text field. Closing it and opening again normally fixes it. You can't share a video from a preview window and you have to go into YouTube to actually share it. The phone not ringing when you call someone is still there also. It's weird though because some people I call I can hear it ring.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] Grandlimo:
Hello I really like what you posted you would have to have the factory boot.img also for the mclaren hd1925 that would be a life saver
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] Victor27587:
Thank you for the response regarding this. I'm on Android 12 and I want to know if Android 14 has features that warrant the switch from OEM ROM to custom. Would you say it is worth making the switch if your intention is to keep it as a daily driver?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
For me yes but it all comes down to what you like. Oos 12 was a bit of a hot mess so I don't miss it much. That being said Oos is a very refined functional os. With this rom there is so much you can do with it. You can really create a very personalized experience. I have played with custom roms almost since android came out so I enjoy experiencing different takes on it. The thing to remember is you can always go back if it's not for you. The one thing I feel is very lacking is the camera. The stock has has a very good camera experience. That I feel is lacking here and I am using a GCam port that works really well.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] Victor27587:
Thank you again for your feedback. I am on the fence to pull the trigger on this because of the safetynet component and the L3 DRM cert. But I do want to keep my OP 7T pro 5G. I just got a new battery and it just works great but it is not the latest software. What Gcam port are you using for your phone?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
The Arnova port for this device. Its the 7 version as 8 doesn't work. The config file gets it working pretty good. I will say I have had some issues on this rom. I am about to test a rom for a different developer that isn't released yet. He had a pixel experience rom on the other 7t thread for the 1925. So maybe wait for a bit. That Gcam will work on the stock rom also so give it a try. Just pay attention to the setup for where to put the config file.

Gcam 7
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] tim-tim:
for whatever reason as soon as I go to reboot recovery after sideloading the rom, phone is bricked and have to use msm to restore. msm is restoring to android 11. What am I missing here to get this to post after adb sideload?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
Did you install recovery to both slots?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] tim-tim:
yes I flashed to both a and b then once booted in recovery I wiped then sideloaded. as soon as I reboot recovery, its a brick. device is one plus 7TPro 5g Mclaren HD1925
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
Did you wipe the boot? The way I do it is flash recovery and boot to it. Wipe and then rom and wipe. Then boot, turn on debugging and back to recovery for a wipe and install Gapps then wipe before boot. There is a Gapps for cr it that seemed to work okay
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] tim-tim:
I will try your sequence now and report back. appreciate the fast response!
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] tim-tim:
Yeah I did your sequence and same result. The second I attempt to reboot, it goes straight brick and I need to flash via msm,

Are you flashing stock 11 firmware before doing this? I use 11.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
Do you have the right recovery?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] tim-tim:
I am restoring with stock 11 via MSMDownloadTool and I am flashing the same date recovery that matches the crdroid release.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
Hmm. I have used the most recent recovery there is. I don't see why it wouldn't boot.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
So I just reinstalled yesterday and have fixed quite a few issues I was having with the gaps. I used the most recent rom build and recovery and everything works fine. Where I had issues was Google apps acting funny like Gboard showing over top of the text field of messages so you could not see what you were typing. This time I nikgaps, elite, and found a package that says op6 at the end. This installed all the core Google stuff and has the setup wizard. That alone made it so I could restore a backup I had and could copy from my other phone. Setup was pretty easy since I did not have to do most of it manually. This way all my Google apps are not in the system folder and it seems to really help this rom to work much smoother. I also used a arnova gcam build 7 that was done for this device and it works great. You have to make sure to get the config file and put it where it needs to be. At first it will have a blue tint to pics but all you need to do is turn on auto white balance and it's fine. Takes some pretty sharp pics. Hope this is useful to someone here.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
I forgot to add one bug I have found is the fingerprint animations show up in the center of the screen rather than around the sensor.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] Victor27587:
Thank you @zackspeed. Are you able to pass integrity safety with thee new build? Do the OTA updates have to be side loaded or can they be installed over automatically from the rom?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
I haven't setup my tap to pay yet. It worked the first time I installed it. You can update through settings.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] Victor27587:
Thank you, let me know if I should still wait for the PE ROM you were going to test
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] PaperMushrooms:
I've actually been struggling with the same issue as him for over a year now. I've rooted this phone at least 1000x I swear lol, but I've NEVER once managed to successfully boot custom firmware on this phone, same model. Idk why I haven't given up. When I say I've tried everything, I've tried everything lol
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
Yeah I don't know why that would be. I have never had a issue with mine. Only other advice is trying the method that was found to flash after 12 came out. Going back to 10os then flashing 11os. Making sure to unlock the boot loader again. I have to say I have been using this rom for a few days now and with the gaps I used it has been trouble free. The only problem I have found is the fingerprint animations show in the center of the screen.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] PaperMushrooms:
If updating from 11os to 14os, wouldn't 11os be better? My MSM tool download build is 11os, and then I flash recovery, and it works every time. Every custom recovery I've flashed has worked great, but never the rom. Do you happen to know if there is a difference between flashing the recovery to boot_a/boot_b or recovery_a/recovery_b. It may sound silly, but on the OP7Pro, the installation is done via boot_a/boot_b, then installing the firmware, wish it was the same for this one lol.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren ROMs, Kernels, etc.] zackspeed:
I'm doing fastboot flash recovery_a file here.

I do it that way for both and I'm just dragging the file to it and hit enter. In essence it is the same process still. Only other thing I know to try is flashing the way the one guy found to allow oos12 people to actually flash again. It's how I got mine to work. Twrp had to be used to get custom recovery to actually work if I remember correctly. https://xdaforums.com/t/op7tprome-custom-rom-install-after-a12-update.4604033/

That's the only thing I know to try now. If you follow that and it still doesn't work then I have no clue how to fix it.

Hello Everyone,

I'm in a desperate need for the firmware flash tool for OP 7T Pro Mclaren, that similar to the one available for OP 7 Pro "OP7Pro firmware flash tool H.41", that exists on the OP 7 Pro page under firmware "https://crdroid.net/guacamole/10".

Any suggestions
