Can we expect custom ROMs for this device? - Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) Questions & Answers

Looks like the 2017 version has a good custom ROM scene going on.... But for this device (2018) only custom Recovery is available. I am wondering if any one will be working on the device or know anyone that is working.... I search for "samsung galaxy a7 2018 kernel source" but looks like Samsung did not release kernel source for this device.
Also what about Exynos version? Is it easy or hard to develop custom ROMs for it.

How is it even possibile that there is no custom rom, no recovery in a phone that looks like is selling like cake. No one want something more from this device? Where are all the devs ?

There is 100% working TWRP for A7...
Other thing is, that this phone is selling mostly in India, so not many developers outside this country bought this phone

You are right, but still no custom rom, no camera mod that is the first thing this phone need since it's the main feature but it's limited AF by Samsung. We absoluterly need a camera mod to disable the superpixel feature, that will allow us to take raw picture.

Let's wait for One UI, maybe this will fix API for camera

I have a custom ROM build for my personal use. I'm waiting for Android 9 and will publish it.
So far the following features are available:
- Basic stuff like disabled Knox, root, busybox, RMM
- Aroma Installer with debload Samsung Apps
- some CSC features like call recording, disabling cam shutter sound
Ideas are welcome.
The firmware will only be the starting point for a good system. I hate personal customizations in custom ROMs.

I'm so happy about this, knowing that someone has a custom rom is a nice feeling.
 @Erecik If you rooted your phone you can change the camerafeature to enable a lot of stuff. You can find it in : />system>cameradata>camera-feature-v8.xml , modify that file to enable 4k recording and more stuff to test.

I'll to retrieve the very same file from a Galaxy A9 to be sure for every feature that you can change but first of all you should backup that file.
After you done that go under:
<!-- Recording resolution - BACK -->
<local name="BACK_CAMERA_RECORDING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION" value="1920x1080"/>
and change that to 3840x2160 and save it.
after that you should be able to record in 4k.
Let me know if it works.

Anything with other camera apps? does it FC with it too?

Open camera does not recognize changes in this file, because as far as I know, those settings are related to built in app only

We have to look into this, we have to find out how to make it work.

So here i am, i was able to retrive the camera feature from the A9.
This is how the camera is set up:
<!-- Recording resolution - BACK -->
<local name="BACK_CAMERA_RECORDING_DEFAULT_RESOLUTION" value="1920x1080"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMERA_RECORDING_MIN_RESOLUTION" value="640x480"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMCORDER_RESOLUTION_3840X2160" value="true" hdr="false" preview-size="1920x1080" snapshot-support="true" snapshot-size="5664x3184" vdis="false" effect="false" object-tracking="false"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMCORDER_RESOLUTION_2224X1080" value="true" hdr="false" preview-size="2224x1080" snapshot-support="true" snapshot-size="5664x2752" vdis="false" effect="true" object-tracking="false"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMCORDER_RESOLUTION_1920X1080" value="true" hdr="false" preview-size="1920x1080" snapshot-support="true" snapshot-size="5664x3184" vdis="true" effect="true" object-tracking="false"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMCORDER_RESOLUTION_1440X1440" value="true" hdr="false" preview-size="1088x1088" snapshot-support="true" snapshot-size="4240x4240" vdis="false" effect="true" object-tracking="false"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMCORDER_RESOLUTION_1280X720" value="true" hdr="false" preview-size="1280x720" snapshot-support="true" snapshot-size="5664x3184" vdis="true" effect="true" object-tracking="false"/>
<local name="BACK_CAMCORDER_RESOLUTION_176X144" value="true"/>
So i was wrong, you have to keep the default resolution to 1080 and add a new line for the 4k recording.
Try it out if you want.
Here's a link to the A9 camera feature file.

Could you have better camera quality? I think it's not good like samsung says...
Inviato dal mio SM-G950F utilizzando Tapatalk

Original Firmware
I have the Galaxy A7 2018 SM-A750GN/DS
Baseband Version: A750GNDXU1ARK7
Build Number: R16NW.A750GNDXU1ARK7
,and it was made in Taiwan.
It has 4GB Ram and 128GB of Storage.
Does anybody know, where the proper firmware can be found, for this? I'd appreciate it, if someone knows. Thanks!
----------------------------
You may be able to find a Custom Rom, for that, on Sam Mobile. Just search for it, in a search engine. I have the exact same model, and I am searching, for the stock firmware, myself. Cheers!

How to get as close to stock Android(Nexus) as possible but still keep functions!

I've been looking for a stock Android ROM for the s7 edge but the two roms Nyssa and KryxOS had too many issues and we're unstable. (Nyssa ROM development has also been cut short)
So im making this tutorial for those who want Nexus but still want GearVR and stability! And FYI this ROM is ODEXED.
Step 1)
Download a ROM called BasicPlus 4.5 (or any latest BasicPlus)
Step 2)
Wipe phone internal/system/delvik/etc in TWRP
Step 3) install BasicPlus ROM
Step 4)
Download Nexus conversion pack zip file and install it through TWRP
Step 5)
Download titanium backup and remove any Samsung apps you don't want
Step 6)
Enjoy

Why do you want to get close to Stock Android (Nexus)? I personally feel, that Samsung TouchWiz UI is already better than Stock Android. Stock Android is just vanilla with poor breed of softwares like Camera.

In this you still keep the stock Samsung camera but things like the phone, messaging app, gallery, etc all change to google. Also you're pull down menu and settings menu is unchanged stays the same as stock TouchWiz, so it's a mix kind of and it's very nice if you're looking for stock Android but still keep main Samsung functions
daaamn that's tempting.. i still didn't lost my warranty so hasitating.. but vanilla look with samsung apps.. that's like dreams come true for me

I used the ROM BasicPlus because it's very light and in aroma you can remove anything Samsung and it will still run flawlessly! When I installed basic plus I only had 8-9 apps (phone, calculator, google play store, etc) I even removed the internet browser. It's pretty much an empty ROM with amazing features but you choose everything! Hope who ever tries it gives some feedback

4.5 has been very stable thus far, and it's the only ROM I know of that you can remove as much as this ROM offers.

If you want security updates you can flash them if I'm not mistaken but over all these isn't anything new that's necessarily "experience" changing that's worth an update. This ROM works and it's flawless so far, to that I say, to each his own. If you have any ROM suggestions id gladly look at them!

There is a debloat script that remove all the bloat apps that samsung has: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/samsung-galaxy-s7-s7-edge-bloat-list-t3359654
So i think it doesnt matter what rom you install, and therefor i think we dosent have to stick with Basic rom beacase it has removeble script in the aroma installer. We can install any rom and use this script.
What do you think?

I agree with you completely, but I mentioned basic plus because that's what I used and it worked. I didn't use this process with any other ROM so I didn't want to risk an error happening to any user who reads this. Either way, appreciate your input.

Have a look to TWRP thread! You need another TWRP if you want to use this ROM.
Try to start from scratch again. Reflash stock CN using MiFlash, boot, reboot to fastboot, flash TWRP for CN, flash ROM with TWRP, boot, reboot to fastboot, flash TWRP for EU, done

I have them too (or at least, the phone seems to freeze pretty often, and then I need to force reboot). I don't use magisk but did install supersu zip from twrp.
I need my phone stable the next couple of weeks so I'm switching back to stock, but after that I am willing to debug if somebody knows how to.
Sorry about this noob question, after installing this rom, is there anyway to get back to stock sony rom and receive updates from sony??

@chanti548 You can flash a firmware ftf-file:

With the FlashTool:

But I don't know if you'll receive OTA updates again. Also I think the bootloader remains unlocked (although I could be wrong about this)

I loved this rom until it started to reboot randomly. I didn't even make it through the setup screen...
It is quite sad because I love AOSPA but I guess my G. Trend plus will be making a comeback with MIUI 7...
New build is up:
http://get.aospa.co/official/kugo
Sadly still with random reboots. I've noticed the reboots are more frequent when I play music (with the screen off), though I have not been able to cache a reboot when a logcat is running.
Also: The fingerprint sensor seems to be working only partially. When I unlock the phone using the fingerprint sensor, I need to put in considerable effort to get my finger recognized, whereas with the stock rom it gets recognized instantly. My banking app does not work with the fingerprint sensor either on this rom. I've noticed this behaviour on ALL non-stock roms I've tested (which is pretty much all of them).
edit: setting selinux to permissive does not circumvent random reboots...
Just installed. Some notes:
- Fingerprint sensor does not work for me
(Default) Camera:
- (16:9) Resolution is limited to 15.9MP
- Continuous shot crashes the camera, but:
- UbiFocus captures the pictures very quickly
- Image capture seems to be ACTUALLY INSTANTANEOUS! I mean right on press! I've never seen this before on this phone. Not on the stock camera, not on custom software. Holy crap, that's nice.
- Video capture stops right after trying to start it. No resolution seems to work. Might be the encoder configuration, but that is not available in this app.
- There are no manual settings other than exposure compensation and white balance
- There is no toggle for Camera2. Does this still use Camera 1?
I have not checked the actualy image quality yet, but the blazingly fast image capture is what will probably keep me on this ROM. The camera app coming with it seems to be a very good starting point for further development.
According to users from Xperia X, disable pocket detection could resolve the reboot prpblem. Anyone try that?

[PRE-RELEASE] [ROM] [8.1] DtuxCorp Rom -v0 - From the Ashes

OREO DTUX CORP ROM v0.0
[AROMA] ​
WE WILL RISE!​

Introduction
#C4R702G4RC14
You shall NOT copy any part of this ROM without MY Authorization.
OK, LET'S BEGIN:
I've been developing for the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 for quite a while doing the DTUX CORP ROM, and now that my device's hardware gave up i ordered a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Chinese Ed to continue with the fun of making roms and kernels.
I don't have previous MIUI past experience so i'm not aware of the good and the bad it brings, i've checked some youtube videos but is up to YOU to guide me on what should be added in order to improve the experience.
The rom will be MIUI based, debloated the maximun possible without cutting any functionality and with new mods added.
Please post:
-Suggested mods
-Services and apps that can be removed from the base rom
-Any ideas (even from my past rom)
Thanks in advance and i hope to bring to this community as much fun as i did for the Sprint Note 4 :victory:

No, there is no third one. Indian == Global and they both will have same rom but China has different rom. There are some users reporting problems on RN5 China when using Global Rom like camera fc etc.. That's why I asked

Got it, the camera is different on the Chinese variant which is the logical reason for the fc's. So far I'm leaning towards working with the Global if i don't get issues myself.
It should not be much different, im downloading both bases and do an in-depth compare, but the base that gets more updates and mods would probably be the one to follow
A new ROM for our device
Great work dev and good luck :highfive:

MODS request
1- IN MIUI , we cant hide media in gallery with turning on MI Cloud Sync. It will be really helpfull if we can disable this check.
2.. Instead it ll be good if we can remove all mi account related stuff from phone.
3. Bundled notifications (I think its already in oreo rom )
Actually im also using MIUI for the first time . In past i was using Lg phones . You can check a developer Named "Xpirt" who makes stock Lg Roms. one thing i really liked in his roms that he inculde a app in his roms which include many tweaks like customising buttons , status bar , changing nav bar hieght , etc .
As of now my device is locked due that 86006 error otherwise i can be tester for your roms , In fact it ll be really helpful if we can find any unofficial BL unlock method
1.If possible take China rom as base.I think China ROMs are more polished and optimize.
2.add kcal support.
3.safetynet patch.
4.viper4android
My suggestions for your ROM :
- Option to arrange list of apps alphabetically
- An app drawer like stock Android
- Xposed compatible
Thank you in advance dev :good:

Kcal is kernel related, we need kernel source code to be able to add that.
As for the others, yes :good:

I'm a little against xposed because of my experience with it. Don't get me wrong, xposed is awesome but the more modules you use, the more unstable the system becomes, so i prefer to try to add as much features to the rom in order for us not to miss it too much.
A modded launcher will be in my agenda :good:
Just The Stores
If you can just provide us with The Setting, camera, play store and the mi app store.
cheery on top- viper4android
If possible add modded theme store (which can be found on all unofficial miui) because applying third party themes give headache now.
Thanks
@carlosggb
sorry for typo error
in my mods request...
i want to say that we cant hide media in gallery without turning on mi cloud sync. I don't understand Mi logic in this case that why anyone wants to upload his personal stuff on cloud. it ll be great if you can disable this check
I wold be happy if you debloated everything.
Only keep the essenttial apps.
An app drawer is welcome
dt2 sleep on status bar
Viper4android
and if the ROM is oreo based,is there a chance that substratum themes will work on third party apps?

It is miui based. So, substratum can't rock because
Miui's theme engine is on the stage.
Could you make all themes free?

@SuperSandro2000
you know what is AR Emoji ? Let's start with this
and from with rom you kang this J4 or J8 cam ?
Yes, from where have you kanged it?
First I will release v1.1 in a few minutes. It removes the old ar emoji now and ar frame as they don't work anyway.

Second thanks for the reminders and sorry about that. Forgot the credits section. Derp
To address your questions:
I know what AR 3d emoji are and I should rename them thread to better reflect that and this is the main feature of this port.
I tried to remember where I got the Camera but I don't know it anymore. I did this 3 weeks ago and I can't remember as I tried a lot. Next version includes the camera from apkmirror.
About the kanging part: I added a proper credits section that I just forgot. I didn't steal any of your code. When you look into the update binary you can clearly see that I wrote it myself.
If you have any more questions feel free to pm me.
Edit: and Ambassadii about the UI. You probably mean the shooting modes. They are provided by shooting mode provider. Nothing to do with the camera app itself.

Can you make a flashable zip or s9 3d ar stickers only for stock s8 cam? Thanks

I probably won't do that as I already wasted enough time with this project and there is no reason I see not to update the camera.
But if you really want it you can just remove the camera app from the zip but I am not to sure if this will work as the camera app probably got updated to support that feature.
Do you need to be Rooted ¿
Or wil it work with a normal flash?

You need to be rooted and probably deodexed but I didn't tested that. Don't know what you mean with the second question.
Does it work on Note 8 Exonys version with Dr. KETAN Rom ?
Thanks

The AOSP license is Apache. This means that you are free to do with Android whatever you want as long the license is maintained. Other than that it also mentions:
"You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and may provide additional or different license terms and conditions for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use, reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with the conditions stated in this License."
Which means not all is permissive.

Thank @SuperSandro2000 everything is working on renovate 13
Except that when the dpi is set above 410 (mine is at 450) the layout of the camera is messed up
Is there a way to fix that
Thanks in advance
