Is it possible to replace stock browser with a better one, in newer build? @McFy

I don't have this phone (yet), but I'm interested how the AOD function works on it and this rom.

Do you mind helping me understand:
These 3 options can all be toggled separately?
And if you turn off the "Always On" option and leave "Lift to check phone" and "New notifications" on, does the phone behave like this: it lights up the screen for a short period of time to show the clock and so on, when you move (lift) the phone, right?
What about the new notifications - when a new notification arrives, does it light up the screen showing the notifications for a short period of time also, or is the screen kept on until you interact with the phone?

if you disable aod you can't use new notifications feature it's only for seeing a preview of the notification on aod screen when you reiceve a notification.
Lift to check is for disabling the aod screen when you put your phone on a surface but you can see the aod again when you pick up your phone. You can also use this feature independently from the other two properties

Flash gapps.

ok, so if both "Lift to check phone" and "New notifications" are enabled, how does the phone behave when it's placed on a flat surface and a new notification arrives? Does the screen (AOD) turn on, and if it does, does it stay on only for a period of time, or does it stay on until the phone is unlocked, or the notification preview is touched, for example?

New notification is displayed for about 5 secs and then screen turns off again.

New notification is displayed for about 5 secs and then screen turns off again.

Thanks. And if the "Lift to check phone" is disabled and "Always On" is enabled, then the display stays on indefinitely and it doesn't matter if there are unseen notifications or not?
Guess, if I ever get this phone, I would have to figure out how to automate the toggling of the "Always On" option with new notifications, if it's even possible.

Try to disable the "Display Always On" feature, I notice that this drains a lot of battery. Which Version phone do you have?
I have the A320Y.

Hello, sure i did this.
There's more to it. I've done root with Magisk 19.0, having the latest manager app installed.
After restart phone works ok, battery perf is good.
Suddenly i noticed battery drain - checked 'top' with root perm.

Process 'system_server' was abusing processor, with 100% usage, after killing it, system reinitialized itself.
Then i checked top again, now with 'magiskd' using 100% proc. resources.
After killing magiskd, resource usage was ok, however wifi didnt work, so i restarted phone. Device wants to do init. setup now.

Idk if this was caused by updating magisk manager to latest version or what. I'll provide more info if i can, maybe i'll try to trace sys calls when cpu usage rises again.
Although i'm linux developer, i've never did anything to android.

edit: this is just a guess, but this problem might be with cloud backups/sync or soft. actualization. After restart i've got notifications on unsuccessful actualizations, but never seen the process start or progress before restart... Just a wild guess
@McFy

ps. I have A320FL

No internet in China

Hi!

I'm in china at the moment. I always get the message "connected, but no internet" when i acces any Wifi here.

Maybe its because in the settings the Google DNS 8.8.8.8 is entered and I cant change it. If I go to "Advanced options" I can change DHCP to static and change the DNS but I cant save this settings.

Does anybody has a quick solution for me? China without Internet sucks...

Screen Mirroring Blackscreen & Reboot

Hello, i know this is a bug, but I have not been able to mirror my screen to my smart TV due to the lack of support this ROM gives me on screen mirroring.
my problem is not that the TV doesn't show up, it's to do with the connection from my phone to display on the TV. Every time i try to connect to my smart TV, my phone screen goes black and sometimes it reboots my phone while the screen is still black... Is there any solution to solving this issue? I like this ROM but I also like to screen mirror from time to time

ANY HELP IS APPROPRIATED!!

 

[zogoibi]

I'm experiencing a bug: when touching on the search icon under Settings, the Settings app crashes. Always. Invariably. Therefore I can't perform settings searches. Someone else?

one problem: i have activated notfication led in settings but it does not work.

Of course. Your phone does NOT have a led.

Battery - running low very quickly, with economy activated, gets better

Generally, battery life sucks under LineageOS (and derivatives), at least in my experience with several Galaxy's.

battery drain - idle cpu load is 34%

Only? Lucky you! Presently, my "Mobile network standby" battery usage is around 75%. Shameful; but that's how it is.
Unfortunately, McFy can't solve by himself an issue which belongs upstream.

@McFy

Happy to know someone else is concerned about battery life.
I never ever turn on backups/sinc nor software actualization. Never ever allow any kind of battery-hungry background process, or anything that can drain my power. Despite which, all LineageOS ROMs I've tried in my three Galaxy models have always sucked the battery badly. (Particularly, my Galaxy S6 gets almost boiling hot under LOS-16 by simply watching a Youtube video. Crazy.) Either "Mobile Network Standby" or "Bluetooth" processes are always reported (perhaps wrongly?) by Battery Stats to be the culprits, which is very suspicious taking into account that I seldom turn Bluetooth on...

So far, the "kindest" ROM I've used, in terms of battery life, for my A320F is McFy's Resurrection Remix.

A dinner on me if you come up with an effective solution. Promised.

hello so far i've only been able to resolve freezing Google Assistant setup -
seems it was caused by update of Google app. (I'm not using microG)

On every reboot my phone wanted to do initial setup,
and couldn't be completed - cause final setup of Google Assistant (whether to use it or skip) just freezed.. (Of course this happened after automatic updates were installed)

You need to force-shut and then disable/deactivate 'Google' app. It uninstalls updates.. You can then re-enable, but first turn off auto updates.

About cpu halted by system_server: i just made some systraces, and gonna see if i can learn something from that.
It seems that this state is triggered by something (idk what)... After reboot, cpu usage is normal, and next day its abused by system_server - i tried to find the trigger, but no success

 

[starbright_]

I don't observe special battery drains. Checked the gapps version and in Flightmode it runs for around 20..30 days. Also the microG version with some none battery optimized apps works for around 2 days with moderate usage. But this is with AOD off and sync off.

 

[koozyn]

@starbright_ : i'm concerned about high CPU usage byt system_server - it runs 100% - i don't think it's supposed to.

Using systrace i could determine relatively large quantity of time-expensive calls on "update_regs_list" , which leads to "decon_update_regs"...

These calls are made by decon0 worker thread.
Thats as far as i can get now, Decon should be some video driver for Exynos processor.

This problem could be kernel-related.
My kernel version is 3.18.14.

@McFy do you think this can be solved?

I've googled some on MediaExtractor and there're reports about it, draining battery... Could it be?
I don't have the symbol files so this is as much info as i can provide...

edit: also... this can be the trigger - before sleep, i've listened to music on youtube... battery cca 70%, i shut down firefox, in the morning my battery was empty. Could there be some leftover process?

btw: as i think about it, according to systrace there's another (maybe sub-)process using that resources - repeatedly calling update_regs_list... PID of the process is always 1538 - and altough i have rooted device, i cannot obtain permission for gdbserver to attach to it......

What exactly do you mean with "need to turn on the wifi manually"?
As for me - I have to insmod the driver.

Bluetooth issues

Thank you McFy for this rom.

This is exacly what i needed.
I see bugs so far:
* wallpaper is "not installed"
* Bluetooth voice is not working from my car, even is the phone is paired for Voice and multimedia. (android Auto is working fine. Just phone calls are not using Car Audio System)

Any idea?

what i did:
installing:
twrp-3.3.1-0-a3y17lte.img

open_gapps-arm-9.0-pico-20190720.zip
Magisk-v19.0.zip

observed:
after every start of the phone (rebbot or clean startup) Wifi is turned off by Default, so I Need to activate after every Startup, even I reboot my *sm-a320fl* with WiFi turned on

Bat think: sometimes i Forget to turn it on manually and my mobile data traffic is used without Need to
