Good job sir

Just got it set up and... i am treble ready? No way!
There is definitely a positive change in response times and obviously much better use of hardware. Rooted no prob after a long first run and installed after 3 boots. Nice!

now that you installed treble fully, you can install GSIs from the treble forums but there is one problem with pie GSIs, some GSIs dont work because of some kind of overlays.. here's a list of GSIs that work and dont work
Avoid these GSIs:
ViperOS (Pie)
Pixel Dust (Pie)
PixelExperience (Pie)
Resurrection Remix (Pie)
HavocOS (Pie)
Liquid Remix (Pie)
MIUI (Oreo)
Oxygen OS (Oreo)
XenonHD (Oreo)
GSIs that work:
Phh-Treble (Pie/Oreo)
AOSP Extended (Pie (6.0)/Oreo)
AOSiP (Pie)
Descendant (Pie)
Bootleggers (Oreo)
Resurrection Remix (Oreo)
Lineage OS (Pie)

Ok nice. Kinda all over the place here. This is crazy. Only because i'm going to try all the ones suggested

Oh. My. God. This is AMAZING! My A8 is gone!

Ha. So I've probably tried close to 10 gsi's now and while some were decent, there so far has always been something that makes it unreasonable to stick with.
There's a lot more choices, that's for sure. I was really hoping to nail the rr 9.0 but don't have the patience to fix the partition issue.... so now I am looking at a cool glowing arrow with hopes of no vendor error message at the welcome screen. The install was easy. No idea if this glowing arrow is going to get tired and let me have a spin at it....

Can I use it without root? I mean i don't want to have the phoe rooted for some apps. Thank You.

is it normal that my Device now shown as A730F ?
also i noticed a performance decrease

So if TW is closed sources i have rights to protect my works from kanging, and quote clearly says `You are NOT allowed to use any part of this rom without my permission! All the apps and stuffs contains my sign So Beware!!` which means u can use but first you have to take my permissions as it's not OSS. Hope you understand and do more research regarding this `

thank you for the reply
i tried AOSP Phh-Treble today and got again the same feeling compared to this rom, this rom feels a bit "laggy". Don't get me wrong, it's not perma, it happens when i scroll realy quick...maybe it seems to me subjectively like that :cyclops:
atm i got two other issues:
the device didnt't get recognized if i connect it with usb to pc. only in recovery mode.
the developer options crash everytime if i try to open

These roms are laggy only at the start give it 10 hours they calm down.

Our devices is dead??? No more rom support?

Hi, since Xiaomi decided to depreciate rom support for our mi4c, everyday i try to find a replacement firmware. But here is what i found: official lineage removed mi4c since april, last rom is 0209 because they no longer support 14.1 version. AICP lastest version is 2702, no longer update. There're many unofficial roms on 4pda, but all of them now have their support ended because the devs move to new devices. There's only Mokee that support nightly 9.0 and release 8.1 version everyday and monthly. I try to find something like "mi4c treble" but no hope, the repository is created but empty, not like mi4 that has unofficial treble support. Maybe i need to buy a new phone? But my phone is still in good condition with no problem so far... :crying::crying::crying:

Yeah, sad but true. I also gave up on new rom, so i still use the 15.1 LineageOS one (20180810). Good rom, no problems here, but wouldnt mind some security updates.
The phone works nicely though and apart from battery lasting a day, i dont see any problems. I guess we will have to move to new phone if we want to see some updates rom.

I resized device partition table in order to support android treble.
I will make custom recovery image which is support android treble.
Maybe our device is ready to support android treble by then
added
I made treble-enabled recovery image now and it works well.
I will release the solution soon.

/e/ is a fork of lineage and based on lineage 14.1 for our phone, with microg pre installed. They use a different default launcher, bliss
It works well and is easy to tweak if we dont like the launcher or default apps.
Anyway since our phone is no longer maintained i've decided to build lineage 14.1 for myself.
I'll do it once or twice a month when there are updates.
If anyone need it check here :

Also WJXXBSH recently published new Lineage 16 and even 17! https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=299149
I have not tried it yet, but at least WJXXBSH is keeping our device live.

how about lineage 16 from havoic 3.1 (https://sourceforge.net/projects/havoc-os/files/libra/)
At least it work fine for me on mi4c

Galaxy S7 SM-G930F: what the best custom rom?

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930F what is the best custom rom?
I want to use VoLTE with my 4G connection and use all sensors and hardware of my phone. What's the best rom available? The address book uses always google account so i can continue to save my contacts on google? photos are saved on google photos? or stay only in gallery?

I use "the galaxy project" ROM becouse looks very smooth and nice. This rom has 1 great option "edge backlight" And got every samsung apps , include camera app.

May be not the best, but based on the latest Android 11 update. LineageOS 18 from LineageOS 18 on Samsung Galaxy S7. I have not tested it yet, it is freshly installed without the Android 11 GApps
Updated Feb. 16, 2021: I replaced to the best LineageOS available for Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930F: alexndr's ROM.

If you want everything working, ALEXNDR is the best one:
[ROM][G930F/FD][ALEXNDR] * U8EUE1 * DevBase v7.4 * Encryption support [Jul-10]
Important notes for Developers / Chefs !!! This ROM is NOT based on any other custom ROM. My work contains many original ideas and innovations that I introduced as the first in the ROM development (see "Changelist" in post #2). Of course, it...
forum.xda-developers.com

I studied alexndr's custom ROM (Android Pie) and replaced the previously installed LineageOS v18. Newer does not necessarily mean better. Thanks for the hint to mooms.

General [RECOVERY] [WIP] TWRP 12.1 for Galaxy A53 5G

TWRP 12.1 for Galaxy A53 5G​Info​NOTE THAT THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. IT IS NEITHER BUILDING NOR RUNNING AT THE MOMENT.
Also note that I never ported a TWRP device tree for any other device before.
I started working on a TWRP build for the Galaxy A53 5G. More specifically, I started extracting the device tree with the twrpgen tool using the original stock recovery.img.
Then, I adapted the output to match the new "twrp" style syntax, as the twrpgen tool still produces the old "omni" files.
My hope was to get at least the build process running inside GitHub actions, such that we have a CI pipeline running for this where everybody can easily contribute and improve.
While the build actions sometimes seem to succeed, the out/target/product/a53x/ folder contains neither a .img, nor a .zip file, which I could upload to the phone.
Even though this is not building at the moment, it might be some time saver for somebody who has worked with TWRP builds before and we might quickly get this running.
Feel free to contribute to this repository or fork it.

No, is there a lot of special things to consider? Do you think it might be easier to build it with twrp 11?
I thought since it is now the default branch (12.1), it should be the one to use.

1. Yes, especially concerning environment for builds and also the difference between 11/12 FBE Data encryption etc; 2. No, that URL was about 12.1, but to read You must register and log in. Than You will see a desperate battle and necessary things to keep in mind. There You will find the results for TWRP 12.1 for some Google Pixel's.
Also, in other thread of XDA I've seen LOS 19.1 and TWRP 12.1 ready to use for one of Samsung Galaxy (S8 ?), but seems it includes some proprietary Samsung SW. May be You can ask there for details ? The Developer, Ivan Meler, is friendly and communicative.

[REQUEST] Android 12 for S6/S6 Edge

Alright so....
All Galaxy S series except the Galaxy S6/S6 Edge have got the Android 12 Custom ROM's made for them. Can anyone make an Android 12 custom rom for this device? It will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

just flash some GSIs, which are supposed to work for all android devices with treble support, they are meant to be flashed as a system image

Generic system images | Android Open Source Project

e.g. the one I gave you

But it's such a capable device.....I don't know why anyone isn't currently working on making an android 12 rom for this device. Other phone's like S4 & S5 have 12 but this doesn't

yeah its a shame. guess because there is no expandable storage, not a lot of people stick around. but android 11 is pretty good for a device that came out in 2015.
who knows... may be someone will build A12 for it eventually.

Oiii....I tried the gsi's. Unfortunately, there was no success. The phone was bootlooping continuesly. Most Android 12 gsi's are for "a/b type partition only" and the S6 is "A only type". That's the reason why it won't work. I guess....We'll have to wait for the Dev's to make an android 12 rom for this device.

Alot of people still use the S6 to this day, even I have it as my secondary phone. It's running evolutionx (android 10) and it's absolutely a beast, it works buttery smooth. So smooth infact that it can beat a midrangers with ez. I can't imagine how cool it would be to run a12 on a phone that's almost 7 year old at this point. Hopefully, Some dev could give a new life to this device again.

whats the problem with just flashing the gsi and try to boot? no boot animation and other stuff?
and as the FAQ in the trebliser thread says, it can work with any normal rom before you flash gsi.
