Welcome to RefinedPie Rom For Galaxy J7 2016
ONLY FOR J710X​


Some information you should know..
  • This is a full Samsung OneUI port with android version 9.0
  • If you want to report a Bug, read the F.A.Q First Then provide a logCat OR LoggingKit.zip with detailed explanation
  • Read the instructions and the F.A.Q Before installing the rom or posting a reply.
  • You are NOT ALLOWED to use or modify ANY PART OF THIS ROM/MOD/FEATURE/FILE without my permission.
  • Any sort of File Kanging will be reported without hesitation.

So, First we brought you the First Oreo based ROM. and now its Android Pie. Due to the nature of this release, and the fact that it comes before any Exynos7870 Official Android Pie. there might be
some bugs that me and testers could not have found yet. so please report them. Some bugs will be listed below and most of them would be unfixable until official is out for more 7870 Phones
I have also included pretty much all the features of previous OreoSama ROM, but some are impossible due to Pie specific issues (Deodexing is not possible without great problems)

As the nature of these ports go, it was a non stop battle for almost 3 weeks straight to get it to this point where all features are working as expected. if you appreacite this work Hit the Thanks button, and consider a donation

RULES OF POSTING : READ everything before commenting, And especially the instlal steps, the rom has been tested throughly for a long time, so if you have an critical issue like not booting or no sim, you missed the instructions, posts that are irrelevant to this project will be ignored(Constructive criticism is welcomed). If you do face a new bug however, dont just say "hey bug here" provide more information, and a LOGCAT, bug reports without logcats will most likely be ignored.

Good idea to read this F.A.Q While the rom is installing

NOTES :

New discovered Bugs as of V1.0
- Footej Camera and FV Camera do not work (probably app fault)

Q : Can't hear on social calls like whatsapp,telegram
A : Lower the volume to one step below maximum

Q : Rom is Laggy / task changer is laggy
A : Do not install Goodlock. it is causing issues
- Reflash the rom without goodlock option, and wipe cache
- If problem presists, clean flash

Q : Can i use flashlight in 3rd party apps ?
A : No, Samsung restricted Flashlight API to stock camera since Android 8.0

Q : SDCard unreadable
A : A reboot might fix it, if not , have to reformat to exFAT

Q : Can we get EdgePanels, Lighting , Native Blur etc
A : We cant deodex and add features like before due to a general bug with Pie

Q : Stuck at boot animation
A : You have to reboot atleast once manually, read installation instructions

Q : I dont get VoLTE, Why ?
A : Either Reinstall or
- Go to settings > About Phone
- See what OMC is used (DBT/DBT , XSG/XSG for example)
- copy system/omc/INS contents to system/omc/[The used OMC in about Phone]
- Reboot

Q : How is battery Life ?
A : With some tests and some cycles, it will be better than stock due to optimzations and new Operating system

Q : What to do after the rom is setup ?
A : Go to samsung apps and google store, let the phone update everthing

Q : the phone wont install any apps
A : Reboot

Q : What bootloader and modem do i need ?
A : Latest Oreo Bootloader is a must, the rom will boot on Nougat BL but will have many bugs related to lockscreen and GPS

Q : How do i know what Bootloader i have ?
A : Samsung info App. if it says AXXX, its marshmallow, BXXX is Nougat & CXXX is Oreo

Q : How do i Update my Bootloader and modem ?
A : Flash latest stock rom

Q : Some apps do not have my language. Why ?
A : This rom is initially based on Korean Dump. report the app that does not have translation

Q : Everytime i press a textbox it shows clipboard dialouge
A : Another Samsung bug that only can be fixed by a base update

Q : Why Antutu UX score is low ?
A : I dont know excatly why it dropped with OneUI, while GPU CPU and RAM increased
