IronMan-Rom for the Galaxy S7 is finally here with a dedicated thread on XDA :victory:

Hey guys! Here we are another time :)
Assuming that you already know me more or less, this rom is based upon latest Samsung Experience 8.5 (Android 7.1.1). I really love the Samung UI, that's why I work on those roms and not on AOSP such as LineageOS, I know I'm a little fanboy :D
Coming to the features, it's similar to the ones you'll find on my other roms such as BatMan-Rom (for the S8/S8+ and S7/S7e) or the SuperMan-Rom (for the S7/S7e) or even the EOL (End Of Life) HydraRom (for the glorious N7) :good:

The Rom itself contains many many custom features via RomControl, I'll list the most important ones below, still you are very welcome to try them all via the RomControl app (choosable in aroma). Now enough talking, wish you much fun flashing the rom and hope you'll enjoy it! :fingers-crossed:


Nobody is allowed to take stuff from my rom without asking me! Thank you.

IF YOU FOLLOW MY STEPS BELOW, YOU WILL MAY LOSE YOUR WARRANTY, KNOX WILL DISPLAY 0x1! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGED DEVICE!

Rom review (thanks to @shark jungle):

How to install the rom:
For advanced users:
0. Make sure to have a backup somewhere on external storage
1. Make sure to be on most recent TWRP, bootloader and modem
2. Flash the rom
3. If you need VoLTE or Wifi Calling, flash your correct carrier CSC
4. Done :highfive:

For normal users:
0. Boot your phone, enable OEM unlock in developer settings
1. Flash TWRP with Odin, following this thread Galaxy S7 TWRP until it works correctly (to access download mode, press home+volume down+power on while phone is turned off)
2. Make sure you are using most recent bootloader and modem, latest one available here on Android File Host
3. Now boot into TWRP by pressing home+volume up+power on while phone is turned off
4. If TWRP asks you about allowing system to be edited, swipe yes to confirm
5. In TWRP, go to wipe, format data (a keyboard will pop up now), type "yes" (this will wipe all your data, make sure to have a backup!)
6. After this, reboot recovery and start the rom installer
7. Select your preferences in my aroma installer
8. If you selected to auto update bootloader in aroma, the installer will reboot automatically
9. You can still install my CSC selection if you are customer of a carrier which is not supported by default CSC inside the rom
10. Wait till the rom boots up
11. After setting up, open IronControl Free and let the app apply my default settings!
12. Enjoy the rom!

Known Bugs:
- Iris scanner (if you know how to implement an iris scanner into a s7 let me know ) :D
- face unlock by samsung, we have trusted face by google instead
- Back key light not working due to the fact, that the Note 8 and Galaxy S8 don't have hardware buttons anymore. We need to wait for a similar device as the S7 to get android 7.1.1 to fix it
- Knox related features such as secure folder, samsung pay or samsung pass may not work any longer after rooting your phone

Credits:
- Samsung for the base
- SuperR for his awesome Kitchen
- Chainfire for his SuperSU
- topjohnwu for systemless Magisk V14.5
- amarullz for aroma and nkk71 to make it compatible with bigger zip files
- wubydax and daxgirl for basic RomControl
- myellow for all the great animations!
- mwilky for his fingerprint after reboot mod, private mode, custom colors and other mods
- Asc1977 for a few mods I already used on SuperMan/BatMan

Just as a small addition:

If you are using any 3rd party kernel (not the included IronKernel) you may want to ask your developer to include this wifi hotspot fix. Using 3rd party kernel will break the hotspot function!!

Please, again. If this issue happens it's not an issue with the rom BUT the kernel. I hope all devs will include it for n8 ports

Hello Mr. Tony Stark!
Amazing ROM along with the Iron Kernel, very fluid, fast!
I was in Batman that is also sensational but I decided to test this one and I'm really enjoying it.
Once again, thanks for the great work !!

This rom looks great!!
I have 2 questions,
Do I have to flash the kernel too? (Is it not coming in the zip of the rom itself?

What about the bootloader and modem, those have to be flashed?

Thanks!

Thanks very much for your feedback, appreciate it a lot!! :good:
really interesting to test last samsung experience, i download it
I hope you'll enjoy it :)
Hello is there any android 8 ROM for Samsung galaxy s7 edge?
There are a few AOSP ones, but this isn't related to this rom thread, please check the general Q&A threads (plus this thread is even for s7 and not s7e)
Just out of curiosity, why do so many ROMs have 3Minit Battery as system app? Is it any useful?
Because 3minit is an option in romcontrol. If we don't install it the systemui would constantly crash :(
rom is great, big thanks tkkg.

i recommend to change dpi settings for better rendering fonts:
adb shell wm density 560 && adb reboot
Thank you for the feedback !
Rom is great, only thing missing is the 6 x 6 apprdrawer :)
Can you install GRX Touchwiz V4.0 in the next build ? @Tkkg1994
Hey :good:

This mod is already available via 3rd party flash, so instead of cluttering the rom with 3rd party addons I'd like to keep it clean and let you flash your own mods you prefer :)
