Here we go new build is up and here is the changelog (I also "fixed" mess google made with phone services notification which was affecting a lot of devices and wasnt device or rom specific)
- Switched to new libperfmgr power hal which can be configured from /system/vendor/etc/powerhints.json
- Adapted DT2W to new power hal
- Muted phone services gps notif (Thanks google really appreciate you breaking random things for everyone)
- Improved battery life and performance
- Cleaned up all of leftover patches that were used by legacy power hal
- Synced with LineageOS source

This update has new power hal which took quite a long time to get working properly
It also outperforms old one and battery life is also better with it since it handles power management way better
Huge thanks to everyone who supported this project and got me coffee while working on this thing

Also huge thanks to everyone who donated and helped me cover the build server cost as they are the reason this project is still alive

Enjoy new build and stay safe
Thank you so much downloading now

I installed everything as follows:
1. TWRP
Wipe > Format Data
Advanced Wipe > Dalvik / ART Cache & Cache
2. Install
lineage-19.1-20220427-UNOFFICIAL-herolte
add more zips
NikGapps-arai-arm64-12.1-20220506-signed
add more zips
Magisk-v24.1
Swipe to confirm flash
Reboot System

Start cell phone:
After registering the finger, a message briefly appears that the Pixel Launcher has crashed, and the Smarthome remains in the setup screen
As i do not know what was previosly on you phone....
Clean install is missing! TWRP > Wipe > Advanced Wipe > System
Not sure if a reboot is needed before Magisk install.
To make it easy i would recommend to install Magisk later (after first boot).
Use Latest TWRP
If the Problem persists try to install NikGapps-core first to see if its running at all.
You may later dirty flash again lineage with NikGapps arai version.
Hope this helps

There we are, I actually made the jump to 19.1.
Once again you rock Ivan, once again a donation for your amazing work! ;)

I was kind of worried to get everything right with Magisk, etc. For those facing the same doubts, here is what I did and everything went flawlessly (including banking apps):
- Update TWRP to "twrp-3.6.1_9-0-herolte.img
- Wipe everything except the SD card (Yes please, clean install)
- Flash both "lineage-19.1-20220510-UNOFFICIAL-herolte.zip" + "NikGapps-core-arm64-12.1-20220413-signed.zip"
- Boot and use the phone for a bit
- Install Magisk 24.1
- In Magisk app click "Systemless hosts" so AdAway app is working.
- In Magisk app click "Hide Magisk Manager" to rename the app
- Again in the Magisk app enable Zygisk + Enforce DenyList + Configure DenyList (tick the app like your banking apps)
- Reboot
- In Magisk app got to the module tab and flash "safetynet-fix-v2.2.1.zip" from the link provided by Ivan in this post

You should be good to go. If you tried to launch your banking apps and got Magisk detected before all this, wipe the data of you banking app and launch it again.

Hello @All,
one of the nice options in LOS was the extended restart. Obviously it doesn't exist anymore or I can't find it. Is this option really gone or is it coming back?
Best thanks for some light in the dark.

Ivan please help me the bluetooth not work


Video
Maybe a clean install will fix it. I have had it multiple times stuff just didn't work until I did a clean install.

Also keep in mind Ivan still has a day job besides this. he still does this in his free time. so if he doesn't respond he is probably busy working.

Hi guys!
The ROM is very excellent, everything works on it!
Thank you very much for the developers.
There is only one problem.
The voice calls quality is worse than with the stock rom. The calls voice distorted.
If I have an incoming call, an older computer speaker starts crackling.
I have not experienced such phenomena before I used the original samsung stock rom.
If you know anything about this please help!

Hi!
This ROM is not your choice if you wish quality voice as stock firmware has.

No solution and no chance to fix it as who claims of bad voice are small part of all S7 users.
The most say that have no such problem. To be honest I don't believe them, as hardware part is the same.

Sad but true (

    Here we go, March security update is here.
    LineageOS 21 builds wont get update this time around as new qpr is still being merged and fixed up
    There were a lot of changes from google in their quarterly platform update soboth LineageOS codebase
    and some device changes are needed for it to be on par with previous builds.

    There will be april builds for it soon so it made no sense to push half baked update today.

    As always huge thanks to everyone who donated to help cover the build server cost.
    This project wouldnt be possible without you.

    Enjoy new builds and stay safe

    LineageOS 19.1 for herolte

    Code:
    /*
    * Your warranty is now void.
    *
    * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
    * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
    * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
    */

    Working:
    - Wifi
    - Sound
    - mali drivers
    - USB tethering
    - HW Backed video Playback
    - Ril (Mobile data,calls, sms and stuff)
    - Sensors
    - Buttons
    - Bluetooth
    - Wifi HotSpot
    - MTP
    - 2D and 3D gpu acceleration
    - HW encoding/decoding
    - HWcomposer (HWC)
    - Charging with device powered off
    - Stuff I didn't test yet
    - Camera
    - GPS
    - Fingerprint Sensor
    - Mobicore
    - SW codecs

    Not Working
    -


    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)

    Make sure gapps you decide to use support android 12L/12.1/Are targetting api level 32
    Also make sure you are using latest official TWRP before installing rom older versions do not have proper android 12 support

    If you want to use Magisk use latest Magisk Beta (25.0) or Magisk 24.1, there is bug in 24.3 that was fixed after its release that prevents zygisk from working on some devices with 3.18 kernel

    Ill just leave this here, Yep its already happening
    Most of stuff is working but ill need to do some cleanup before posting this
    Some lineageos featues are missing but most have already been merged

    Once again huge thanks to everyone who supported this project and helped cover build server cost with donations and also got me coffee this project wouldnt be possible without them

    see you soon with latest android version on 6 and a half old phone

    here it is August security update
    Nothing major in this one as i am still working behind the scenes on that huge update i talked about previously which involves rewrite of almost whole graphics and media stack (its almost finished but i still have to do a bit more testing just to make sure there is no regression)

    In other news android 13 should be released next month and since there were no major changes s7 should be running it soon after release with not too many issues and ill try to take a few days off from work to get it up and running on it once source is out

    Once again huge thanks to everyone who supported this project, helped cover build server cost and got me coffee with donations.
    This project wouldnt be alive without them as i do this in my free time as a hobby.

    Enjoy new builds and stay safe

    Since my birthday is tomorrow I decided to release a little surprise build. Here is a brief changelog:
    - Updated libexynosdisplay from BSP to comply with some android 12 changes
    - Removed unused build.prop entries
    - Fixed few selinux denials related to hwc props
    - Improved UI performance and stability
    - Cleaned up source
    - Removed more unneeded patches for device support
    - Synced with LineageOS source

    Im aware of Seedvault issue curently present and im working on a fix for it.
    I wanted to release something as a gift from me to everyone using this rom and supporting this project throughout the years. Keeping older phones alive and up to date is really fun hobby and I don't think I would've kept doing it if it wasnt for all of the support from the comunity.

    Once again big thanks to everyone who helped cover the build serve cost and coffee.

    Enjoy new build and stay safe

    - Fixed more keystore issues
    - Synced with LineageOS source

    Also some important news, Exodusnick decided to provide huge help and he bought and shipped s7 to me which should be here next week, so all of exciting updates i talked about last week should be way easier to achieve and this will make testing and developement a lot easier, Once again huge thanks to him.

    Also big thanks to donators that helped to cover build server cost and got me coffee which helped to keep this project up and running.

    Thanks to this s7 should live for few more android releases without any major issues. and Android 12 will get even better with new hals that are curently in developement

    There will be updates to 18.1 and 17.1 in a few days once july security updates have been ported to them

    Enjoy new build and stay safe
