Did you remember to turn on OEM unlock or Android Device Bridge (ADB) setting on your device?

Also when you succeed flashing be sure to press VOLUME UP and POWER key during reboot or your phone will use the stock recovery software (I remember this was a headache before figuring that out!).

I succeeded installing TWRP. :) Thanks guys !
I'm not sure if my problem was the ADB option unchecked or more my USB port not to his liking :) (Even I flashed all my last phones through it).

I'm ready to prepare the next big step.
I'll start now backing up stuff (and buy some flowers to support the process of change :D).
And of course, I'll go with LOS 16 as it seems quite stable :good:

Hi guys,
I am struggling with getting radio fm application working on my phone. My phone is rooted. I installed Spirit2 2015_04_14.0 but when I launch it I receive message:
"ERROR: Tuner API did not start or stop.
This device may need a kernel with a working FM driver."

Does anyone know how to get fm radio working on this rom, maybe there is another fm radio app?

EDIT: I somehow missed previous post. So it is impossible to have fm radio on this rom, right?

It requires a driver/hal modification to make it work. It is very low down on my list of priorities.

Hello,
My wife use this rom since 1 week.
Battery drain : with stock rom 2 or 3 day, just 1 day with this rom.
Same with greenify (with playstor or magisk)
Disable wifi and blutooth Location.
Use pico gapps.
But...
See in attachement brtterbattery logcat. Any idea ?

In better battery stats what percentage of deep sleep are you getting?

Are you able to enable NFC? (if you can't enable it reboot and try again)
Does the camera work? (not able to focus or not able to open camera app means a crashed HAL)

If the NFC or camera are in a crashed state then you will get battery drain, reboot usually solves it.

Also it usually it takes a few full discharge/charge cycles for LOS to know the true battery size, leave the phone on charge for a few hours after it reaches 100% also as this is where the battery driver is doing some profiling.

I get 3 days with a couple of hours screen on time on my 2.5 year old battery.

Thanks dan,
_ NFC seems ok. my wife don't use so It's no enable. But we can enable and disable.
_ camera is ok. Focus is ok . But one time crash, few days ago (we do reboot the phone since this crash).
Better battery stats for deep sleep is 70% or more (see screenshots). But i don't know the normal percentage...

We do some full discharge and charge, but no few hours after it reaches 100% .
Will try and feedback

Hi,

Uploading a new release now (16/05/19).

I have changed my mega drive around so the download link has changed and all of the old tree releases have been removed.

Changes since last build:
  • kernel: fixed non charging issue if USB is not plugged in for 20+ hours
  • WiFI: fixed MAC address loading
  • NFC: default to slower but more reliable firmware loading mechanism
  • system: optimised the vfs_cache_pressure which improves FS performance and fixes most MTP issues
  • vendor: Added missing magnetomoter configuration file
  • vendor: Updated blobs to February security patch
  • Android May security update

Regards,
Danny

Hi,
Is there a way to enable exFAT USB drives support (not through all those play store apps)?
I've had that functionality on the firmware that was a port based on the SM-A530 (android 7.1.1)

Network switching is not working on A310N0.

on A310N0 it seems like network switching from 2G/3G/4G is not working.
It always stays same & always taking mobile data connection only on 2G.

Okay I just started recreating the device tree based on newer guidelines from LineageOS. I will also include different cherry picks that haven't been implemented for the past inactive months of the developer and build the HALs directly from hardware/samsung instead of cloning them locally as every new commit needs to get manually picked which wasn't done too and results in outdated HALs. I will directly create a pie device tree.
It will take some more time and even if I am done it could need even more time to test everything and ensure if it works. :laugh:

wat?
the device trees in the gitlab orgs are pretty much to lineage rules (that was the point on the recreating on gitlab in the first place)
why wasting time in redoing it when we have perfectly fine trees already

putting local hal clones into hardware/samsung is a bad idea (and probably wont get merged into lineage) the standard is to just copy them into the device trees

    Introduction

    Lineage OS 15.1 for the SM-A310F is based upon the hard work of both @Stricted and I in creating new clean device trees for Exynos7580 devices. This release is a stable release build on the new device trees.

    What works
    Calls, SMS, Mobile Data
    Camera
    NFC
    WiFi
    Bluetooth
    Torch
    SELinux Enforcing​
    What doesn't work
    VoLTE (will never work on LOS)
    You tell me​
    Installation
    1. Download the latest LOS build and transfer it to your phone
    2. Install the latest TWRP (Available Here)
    3. Make a full backup (just in case something goes wrong)
    4. Do a full wipe (Cache, Dalvik Cache, Data, System)
    5. Install LOS
    6. If you are installing GApps do it at the same time (preferably in the same install queue)
    7. And finally boot, the first boot can take several minutes as it optimises all the apps

    Downloads
    Latest releases are uploaded HERE
    OpenGapps HERE
    TWRP is availableHERE
    Magisk is available HERE​

    • Bluetooth Call audio fixed
    • Better 'cancelAutoFocus' camera fix

    Hi,

    I am off on holiday for a week so thought I would upload a quick update before I go.

    There are only a couple of fixes:
    • Kernel: Copy display colour correction tables from the A3 2017 to fix green tinge in low light mode
    • Device: Updated cancel_auto_focus logic in camera wrapper to try and solve a battery drain issue

    I have only applied part of Sekils panel changes to my tree, it does appear to have fixed the green screen issue but I will need your feedback as I may need to add the rest of the mdnie logic in as well.

    Regards,
    Danny
