What's working?

• Telephony
• WiFi & Hotspot
• Bluetooth
• NFC
• Fingerprint
• Camera, including 4K & 120fps-recording, but still no 60 fps
• 2D/3D-graphics + Vulkan
• Location
• And probably everything not listed in the bug-list or related to one of these issues

Bugs and Problems...

• Bluetooth call-audio may not work on certain devices
• zero(f)ltespr: RIL not working/Modem not recognized

...and how to report them

• ONLY SEND LOGCATS MADE WITH SYSLOG + ALL CATEGORIES CHECKED. ANY OTHER LOGS WILL BE IGNORED UNLESS REQUESTED
• Take a logcat
• Describe the problem as exact as possible
• Send it here to to one of our Telegram groups (with higher possibility of direct dev-support)

Supported Devices

• SM-G920F: Only permanently and completely supported device, because we don't own another one
• Any other SM-G92[0/5]-device: May be supported, but I cant guarantee it. Please don't keep asking why we don't support your model, it's that simple: We don't own it, so how can we support it? Right, we can't. You can help us to fix issues, but we need a full set of logcats default ([adb] logcat -d) and radio ([adb] logcat -d -b radio)+ the kernel-log (/dev/kmsg). You may use different apps, but without those three files, we can't do much...
• SM-G928x: Not supported, will probably never be

Possible Problems

• Problem: Problems with modem like dropping/slow/slowly connecting data connections, missed calls/SMS
  Solution: Try to update your device's baseband/modem to the latest available version. If there are still problems, report this bug to the developers

Thank you, wasn't expecting it very soon. I tried the previous build which was working flawlessly except these known bugs like Camera, GPS.

Has anyone tried today's build (16th Sep)? How's the camera?

 

[King-V]

Sweet ?
Will install tomorrow and check it out

 

[DqrKn3Zz]

Hi, been trying out this ROM for a few hours now, few things I've noticed:
1. Changing clock position on status bar wont work (System - Status bar);
2. Network traffic monitor also not working (System - Status bar);
3. SELinux is disabled;
4. Overall animations feels a bit sluggish (lagging)?;
5. Limited camera settings on stock camera app;
6. LiveDisplay and Style tabs under Display not working (LineageOS Settings keeps stopping);
7. Adaptive brightness keeps resetting after restart or after longer deep sleep;
8. Alarm not working, for example, I set it to 8:30 and it does nothing then, alarm starts when I get to the phone, say 9:30.
9. Backlit keys turns always on when touching the screen, it would be awesome to get them lit only when touching them directly.

Otherwise really promising ROM, definitely going to keep testing this rom.

Huge thanks to developer, awesome work!

Most of the linage features are not implementet yet and you should try using the Google alarm app but I never had problems with that anyways

Hello,
I'm on the 9/16 build since yesterday. Really great, smoother than the Oreo's buillds. Congrats! No lags, no sudden boots, no app crashes. For now.

Just wondering, does anyone knows how to activate the navbar? When I search it with the key word in settings, it appears but when I enter the menu (Buttons as it seems), there's nothing related to the navbar.
And does anyone else have troubles with the notification bar? It keeps scrolling down everytime I press the home button ou swipe up to get to my apps drawer.

Regards,

Charles

EDIT: the status (notifications) bar issue was due to Nova launcher. Solved now.

add qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in build.prop works for me

No problem for me with earpiece, works like with stock rom.

Can i flash magisk in this build?

Yes, you can. Works fine.

 

[stanjo]

Is there someone Experience battery drain while screen is off??

 

[ambawku02]

Anyone knows how to turn off hardware key light?

 

[falc0nfire]

Main problem I have noticed on a G920F :

- The phone is overheating.
- The battery die so fast.
- The animations are not fluids : many lags.
- Stock camera too limited.

Or its impossible to fix it.
