Ahh, never tried reflashing bitgapps, maybe this is why it was stuck in a boot loop.
LineageOS 19.1 (Android 12L) [Signature Spoofing][OTA updates] for S7 Exynos
- Thread starter Ivan_Meler
- Start date
In case you used bitgapps that exactly is the reason (They actually even tell you to reflash them after rom update during rom update process, But most people dont read that text haha)
Yeah if anything ill have a bit more free time for the next few days which is niceFortunately, you are doing well despite covid!

Thanks for your work, Ivan. Hope you'll be fine again soon and that you're not fighting with big health issues regarding Covid.
I did a clean install including BitGapps, but still am ending in a boot loop. This is the second time I tried. First one with installing ROM -> reboot to recovery -> installing Magisk -> reboot to recovery -> installing BitGapps/Addons. Second time I installed Magisk on last position. Still boot loop.
Doesn't seem to be related to ROM, maybe the safetynet installer from BitGapps.
Will post again as soon as there is a success.
EDIT: For those affected: Running the safetynet restore patch resolved the bootloop issue for me:
github.com
I have to mention that system comes up with an error message telling me that "Speech Service by Google was terminated repeatedly." (I have Text-To-Speech addon installed, but that error didn't came up with the last version.)
EDIT 2: @Ivan: Just realized the clock on the lockscreen is shifted to the left again. (Only seems to happen when you have unread messages on lockscreen) There's also something going on on the statusbar. The date is displayed in bigger font size and also shifted to the left. Both issues were resolved with your build from 2022/01/06.
Speech Service got updated and error message isn't coming up no more.

oh hey memory usage is likely wrong as long as you have nfc turned off in settings.
Reason why this is happening is because nfc is system app using uid 0, so memory usage gets confused by fact system processes are using memory and just randomly choses one it will show in stats
Thanks for the answer, was wondering how this was possible.
Hi, I did a dirty update from 18.1 and Gpay won't let me configure my card for contactless payment with a warning that I'm using a custom or rooted rom. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I really didn't want to have to do a clean install. Device is certified in Google Play's protect certification. I'm using NIKgapps. Thanks a lot Ivan, really impressive work.
Hi @Ivan_MelerCan someone confirm if :
- Proximity and light sensors are working (maybe it is some hardware problem i have?)
- The SIM card (and WiFi) data usage is counting? (it's always 0MB)
(fast recover Ivan
Light sensors are working but they are no as reactive as in stock rom.
I have to always manually correct it.
Maybe if possible we can just take Samsung implementation Libs ?
Thx.

Same here, audio during calls is almost unbearable. Sounds like a kind of robot voice imitator
SIM and Wi-Fi not workingCan someone confirm if :
- Proximity and light sensors are working (maybe it is some hardware problem i have?)
- The SIM card (and WiFi) data usage is counting? (it's always 0MB)

I guess people just dont understand that not all s7's are identical. Thats why some do have problems and some dont. For an developer this is the worst scenario because it cannot be reproduced on development device. If there is no log apart from that practical use, than its like the bug doesnt exist. Its really hard to figure out that bug, if its not happening on your own device and theres even no log which says what is happening.
People just dont get that.1
please give me the name of this file and if you remember where the configuration file is located, because I was looking for but I did not find it, I did 3 minutes to the village, best regards -

Keep in mind that some LineageOS features have not been completed yet this is not a device bug and please do not report those
in this rom thread, also do not post bug reports for known issues or bug reports without proper
a) Logcat
b) proc/last_kmsg (or proc/kmsg)
c) data/tombstones
d) dmesg
Install gapps right after installing the rom itself don't try to boot to system before that if you want to use gapps (Or wipe data before installing them)
Since most gapps didnt update for 12L yet (SDK bumped from 31 to 32) i edited falmegapps and uploaded them here use them if you cant find gapps that work on 12L https://mega.nz/folder/FFoS1IIK#XunGRNTViQY7-OZ8oQr0sg
Make sure gapps you decide to use support android 12L/12.1/Are targetting api level 3212L/aka 12.1
Make sure you are using latest official TWRP before installing rom older versions do not have proper android 12 support
