Thank you for your work! I want to port LineageOS on my Note FE too, but mine is SM-N935K(Korea Telecom), so I'm not sure if your port can work on mine.

It should compatible with all Exynos 8890 variants, if your device has Exynos 8890 SoC, you can try it.

Great! Then I think I'd try it now. Will SPen work too?

Well, it's not working. I've successfully installed it on my phone via TWRP, booting into LineageOS but it will show a black screen when "LINEAGE" word shows.

Yes, it is working but all functions aren't supported by AOSP-based roms.

 

[cıyanogen]

Is it stuck in here? If yes, try taking logcat.

And were you installed any modifications?

 

[BobLao]

Okay nevermind. I've flashed it again and it's now working fine. Most of the features are working out of the box on my unit which includes:
1. LTE
2.Front/Rear Camera
3.Spen
4.Bluetooth
5.USB-C Headphone(Which is great since Samsung's stock ROM is not working well with my Google Pixel 2's headset.
My Galaxy Note 7's wireless charging case is still not working fine which seems to be Samsung's fault since Samsung's stock ROM had the same problem.
Great work mate, you rock.

I added Magisk to the list, which I'm not sure if that's why it got bricked. But it's working well now so meh

Image 1 is back camera. Image 2 is front camera. Both are directly from stock LineageOS camrea
Image 3 is LTE screenshot while browsing with stock browser

Thank you for your comment, is these features work well on your variant? I tested on N935F variant and it's working perfectly.

* Touchscreen
* S-Pen
* RIL
* Mobile data (4G/3G/2G)
* Bluetooth
* Speaker/Microphone
* Vibration
* Led
* GPS
* Sensors
* Wi-Fi
* Headphone jack
* USB Tethering
* SD Card
* Buttons

I can't test wireless charging case and USB-C headphones because I don't have these.

Yes, they work fine on my N935K. I need to format my SD card before it can work inside my phone but other than that it's working fine. The wireless charging case's problem is they can't charge your device anytime longer than 3 seconds and they'll randomly charge your device. According to my googling, it's Samsung to blame for unclear reasons. Maybe it's just because all Note 7's stock accessories should go back to Samsung, IDK.

As you say, this problem has available in stock rom, so I think I can't do anything. Maybe Samsung added a protection for these accessories.

Thank you for your testing.

Does Dual-sim work?

 

[BobLao]

Does Dual-sim work?

On my SM-N935K No but your mileage may vary.
BTW everytime I want to swap SIM or TF card I need to reboot the phone. Stock Samsung ROMs does not require that so that's strange

I can't test dual sim due to my hw issues. But it should work.

Can you explain this issue?

The second card(on TF card slot) cannot be recogined even that's the only card there. Maybe hardware difference.

On my N935F, If I install only a memory card, my phone can't recognize it. I must attach a SIM Card on SIM1. But this issue available in stock rom (N935FXXU6CSK1).

Pretty strange tbh I've never seen such problem on lineageOS. But again, considering this is a note7 replica(hell they even share same codename) maybe samsung's that one to blame

Dual sim works fine on my SM-N935F

Dual sim works fine on my SM-N935F

So that's problem for SM-N935K.
Good to know since I had another phone for the second sim so it's not a deal-breaker. That's life maybe
btw new problem and real bummer：while charging I can't get reading from system via AccuBattery. It just says 0mA and nothing more.

In N935F it is working. I think it is kernel issue, I will try to fix it.

Is charging works on N935K?
