[Q] How to splice roms? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm in the process of creating my first android ROM, and am trying to splice features from one rom onto AOSPA which I am using as my base.
How do you do this? I presume it involves downloading the repos and editing build instructions, I'm not sure how. Also, in the meantime, how do I add packages contained in Zip files to my ROM?
Yes, I know I'm a complete noob, all I know is repo, a few linux commands, and how to build what is already there.
In a couple of months, I will hopefully release a wonderful stable ROM for the OnePlus One!
Thanks so much for your help!
P.S. As a bit of a sneak peek, here are some of the features I am adding:
• Viper4Android Mod (For all the audiophiles)
• ExtremeBeatz Mod (Works with Viper by adding some profiles and audio drivers for better speaker and headphone performance)
• CameraNext Mod (Original OPO camera with more features)
• XPLiX Graphics Mod (Includes Ad-Blocker, Internet Speed Booster and Ram Modifications)
• Music VisualizerView (Graphic Equalizer to Notification panel)
• Nitro X Spark Ultimate Mod (Smoooth nitro fast performance)
• init.D, Busybox and Chanfire's SuperSU pre-installed (These are more requirements for the build than they are for you)
• Xposed (For sweet extra features)
Based on AOSPA Lollipop 5.0.3

[ROM][XT1575|XT1572][Aroma]TruPureXMM 2.9 - Fast and Smooth [5-26][MM 6.0]

Introducing
TruPureXMM
TruPureX was born from my minimalist OCD and love for my Nexus 6. Although Motorola has a reputation for not including bloat, I disagreed. I have removed all unnecessary MotoBloat while keeping the Moto features that make us love their phones so much. TruPureX is light, fast and smooth. It was built to keep the battery in mind and performance high, as well as making sure it is easy to customize to your liking.
This is my first ROM that I am sharing with the community here at XDA, so please be kind and any advice is appreciated. I hope you enjoy my rom as much as I enjoyed making it.
**Please search the thread before posting about an issue. There have been too many repeat questions.​

Thanks! @krazeekirk Let me know what you think! It would be nice to get some feedback.
Does anyone know if volte works on this since its deodexed?

Giving it a shot! Thanks for the contribution!
Curious what's "bugged/not functioning"... But, as of right now, this is probably the most promising and the ROM I'll probably be installing. I'm just waiting for android 6 to release for device first.

For as long as I've been using my build, I haven't noticed any issues yet. It's been my daily for the last few days since built the final build. If you do find some, please let me know.

As much as I want to, I can't at the moment. This is my first rom and I imagine it's going to be a lot to handle, let alone building two versions. Maybe later down the road I can get one out just for you

You are right! Maybe I can work something out for you guys. Lets let this settle for now and I will look into supporting an odex one for Verizon.
Installed fine and after 90 minutes everything seems to be working well with no apparent bugs/FCs/etc. I really like the minimal build, and it's definitely faster & more responsive than stock. I'm also on AT&T so can't test volte.

so far so good OP, just quick question, do you think that if we flash the custom kernel that is floating around we going to kill the experience?

In my opinion, yes. That's why I included the stock kernel. It was smoother for me when testing.
Looks promising, I'll give it a try.
Heck, my phone won't even download it! I wish I could try it. If also prefer an odexed version, because I've never understood the appeal of deodexed. It's easier to theme it, but you lose the optimization and smoothness that odexed has.

[ROM][Dec10][7.1.1]MegaPixel6P - Doing what Google should have...(discontinued)

PLEASE NOTE:
Due to the sudden random demise of my Nexus 6P (and the fact that the Pixel XL is really neat), all development of this ROM has been discontinued. It's kinda hard to make a 6P ROM without a 6P, you know?
There has been interest expressed by some members of the forum in acquiring another 6P for me to continue working on this, and for me to put a donate link in the OP.
If you'd like to contribute to this effort, Paypal donations are accepted at the following address: [email protected]
I apologize for this inconvenience, but I obviously can't control when my phone will randomly decide to die, and I can't justify spending $300+ of my own cash to buy another primary device, when the last one just decided to crap out without warning. So, it just doesn't make sense to buy another as my daily driver.
Team
"LOUD NOISES!"
Presents

What it is:
This is a stock-based ROM, with extensive changes and modifications to re-create the Pixel experience.
Despite the cool team name, this ROM is really just maintained by me, Digitalhigh. All updates, mods, and anything else (unless otherwise specified) was put here by yours truly. While I will not plaster this thread with links like other devs, there is a donate link under my avatar - any and all donations are appreciated, but not required.

Rambling:
While I haven't released anything publicly in a while, I have actually been working on this project privately since the first release of 7.1.1 several months ago. Now that there is an official, stable build, I figured it was time to stick the finger to Google and turn on all the features we should have by default.

Will this ROM have any mods for the enterprise wifi issue that a lot of people including myself is running into where the businesses' wifi cant connect to the new android DHCP client?
Rom looks to have a lot of goodies tho....will give it a try tonight.
As for requests.....what about transparent status and nav bar, pie control, call record?
Also, if you guys are downloading already - give me like ten minutes. I found an issue with the Settings app that I've got fixed, upload pending. It'll be live by 4:30 CST.

It is "stock-based", so all the Gapps in the Stock ROM are here. You have the option of which ones to install and remove in Aroma.

This here is my personal setup and thought i'd share. Usually i test extensively before releasing to public, but if you do find something detrimental to the usage of your device that is either Force Closing or simply not working, let me know and i will in turn inform whether that is something i will tend to.
WETA is made for Music geeks like me, its main focus is stability and Audio. It is Based off latest firmware currently, and will always be using the most up to date firmware base.​

Headphone volume warning disabled
Layers and ready
Rom does not include...
This rom is debloated, meaning i have removed...
Google apps, there are google apps that are avaliable on the play store that have been removed.
How to install...
The usual thing here, I use TWRP so can only recommend that recovery, but i am sure you will be fine with others.
If coming from another Version Base, vendor.img may need to be flashed.. Do this BEFORE flashing the rom!
Make sure WETA zip file is in your internal SD card, and head to recovery and flash the rom zip file. Reboot.
ENCRYPTED DEVICES - If you have your data partition encrypted, and you have set a "Device pin" you are going to have issues with system UI unless you disable device pin in security settings before flashing rom.

Added Magisk/Phh root option
Added WETA Audio option (no arise)
***V4a, Dolby and weta reboot will only work with magisk if you set magisk to permissive.
8.2
PLEASE READ (applies to magisk users only)- because the permissive setting is stored within the magisk.img.. if you backup data then wipe and restore data after the rom flash then you wont get permissive by default.
These are your options... 1, go into root explorer and delete /data/magisk.img before you go to twrp to backup
or 2, dont restore a backup
or 3, if you have already downloaded and installed V8.2 and a backup, you can dirty flash 8.2 over the top to fix problem
or 4, i dont usually recommend this, but dirty flashing should be fine this time around

Common Questions
How do i hide stock battery?
How do i mod NavBar?
- Both of these can be found in system ui tuner. You activate this by swiping down the notification pull down and pressing and holding the settings cog until it vibrates.
This turns on a new menu in Settings called systemui tuner, its all in there. If the cog doesnt vibrate. You may need to change your animation scales back to 1x within dev settings.
SystemUI keeps crashing
- Most likely this is a theme issue, especially after a dirty flash. Uninstall all themes and the apps. Flash vendor.img, wipe dalvik and cache, and rom again.
If its happening at boot time right when your device is asking for a password, then you need to flash stock rom and disable device boot security pin. Its a problem with encrypted devices and modified SystemUI.apks
Why is my battery life crap?
- Start by looking at your custom kernel, or by looking at user apps you use. Also simply constantly watching your battery is a battery drainer. The rom is seldom at fault with battery drain problems, and if it is to blame, then it is most probably and upstream google issue and not WETA.
Where is AdAway?
- If you flashed adblocker, then that is what you flashed, not AdAway. These are different things. Adblocker is a simple replacement of your stock hosts file that in turn blocks ads.
How do i get Stock clock back? How do i remove adblocker? How do i get stock NavBar height back? How do i Get A.R.I.S.E back?
- This is so simple and if you ask any of these types of questions... then i slappa yo face..
Just dirty flash the rom again. Select what you want
What is WETA Audio?
WETA Audio is an alternative to flashing with A.R.I.S.E. It replaces A.R.I.S.E with my own setup consisting of V4A (2.5.0.5 or 2.3.4.0, optional Dolby Atmos and drivers and effects from Sony, HTC and ALSA drivers. Its a more simplistic approach to what A.R.I.S.E offers which some people were requesting. Its my go to setup now also.
mentalmuso, can you add advanced reboot menu to power button? can you add volume skip track functionality?
- Short answer, No. This rom is built from stock prebuilt google images and is the reason why its mostly so stable. mods like this require building the rom from source code, which is something im not prepare to dive into at this stage. It takes too much time out of my life and requires a bigger SSD hard drive than i have at this time. Maybe ill have interest in this in the future, if i lose my job or something.
mentalmuso can you add CM visualizer to navbar?
- This mod requires the system to have signature check verification to be disabled. Although its a cool mod, thats one security risk i wont implement.
Why is there no SuperSU app, or Why is there no PHH superuser app?
- The root apps get installed to the /data partition at installation. This means sometimes there is a conflict as you may have left over data from a previous installation. This can be remedied by simply finding the app you need on the play store and installing it. No big deal. The Root binaries would have been installed properly.
Will CMTE be coming to this rom? What about OMS support
CMTE and OMS require a rom to be built from source so commits can be added. I'm not going to build from source.
Where are the extra fonts??!!
stock Android has no way of changing the system font. And WETA can't change that. It pre installs fonts for third party apps to use. Such as 3minit clock

Battery life should be about the same as stock build. I like the fact that Viper4Android comes pre-installed with all the convolvers

Think I'll give this a try later today. Thanks so much.
Just flashed this rom but getting FC when opening dolby app. Also, in viper, after going through the set up and rebooting, the settings aren't sticking. I mean I'm having to run the set up again and again. Did a fresh install and flashed the latest vendor image after the rom as well.
That's kind of weird, I had no problems what so ever...I tried installing it with center clock and got system ui force closes, but reinstalled with stock settings and everything is fine...can you pull a log for the dev?

Ok, now that you have flashed the Vendor image, you shouldn't need to flash it again as the rom won't format the vendor partition. So im assuming by fresh install you have wiped all data and caches? Are you using the stock kernel that gets flashed with the rom? Flashing the Vendor.img after the rom may actually cause a problem with v4a and dolby just thinking about it.
EDIT: also what rom were you previously on?

Good start in 2019

Where a good place to start for our new ROM?
I see the sticky post, but it's from Ubuntu 13.10 so very old.
Some things about what we wish to accomplish:
-Based on latest AOSP pie
- magisk integration (or other root solution). One possible solution is a userdebug build.
- Substratum integration (or similar theming engine)
- better storage and RAM optimizer
- modify startup script
- Some version of google apps (probably opengapps)
- customize everything to user desire
- battery optimizations
- possible TWRP installer inbuilt
- inbuilt OTA updater
- youtube vanced instead of standard YouTube
- inbuilt hosts files editor/importer
- inbuilt adblock separate from hosts management (?)
- custom subs theme for lunaOS
- lawnchair as default launcher
- optimize boot up sequence
- audio enhancer (not in first release)
- f Droid or play store alternative
- Aroma installer
- light/dark/black material rounded theme
- call recording
- properly support aptX and aptX HD
- Easter eggs galore
Obviously, we're not looking to integrate all that on first release, and don't need integration instructions for all (but those are welcome).
We all have basic to advanced Android knowledge, and I personally have worked with things like TWRP development, magisk modules development, etc

V5.1 Notes
This is a minor update to resolve a bunch of reported errors and ones that were discovered after the release, they only addresses the bugs / changes in the changelog, this does not touch camera or anything else. this is mostly to fix networking and kernel issues reported in V5. also some minor improvements. as mentioned before, this remains an EOL version. i dont plan on rebasing to the March update, by the time im done with it and with testing, April will be out
V5.0 Notes
Here we are again, with another major release, what initially started as couple bug fixes ended up being its own fully fledged ROM. with tons of fixes and improvements to make this the ultimate Pie update for this device. and perhaps the Last. i can see no way at the moment of improving upon this release, which means my efforts hopefully will be focused towards Q if it ends up being viable and i find motivation to do so. id like to give a big shoutout to @corsicanu for his awesome V12 Base, that by itself includes a ton of improvements and id like to thank the testers for working with me on this one, its a massive ROM to say the least.
Hope you like it, and as always please read the notes and F.A.Q to understand how to use this ROM so you dont fall in issues. if you appreciate what i do here, consider donating @ Paypal
V4 Notes
Hey everyone, Finally after a long time V4 is here. ive put 10 times more effort into this compared to the previous releases. Tons were changed and the entire ROM was built up from scratch. everything rom the rom to the kernel was fully remade and improved. 30K Downloads later on V3.
Today happens to be my 22nd Birthday, and i would like to give you all a gift instead.
This Version is without a doubt the biggest ROM ive worked on to date, through development challenges, special device issues , ROM Size and tons more, it was exhausting. however
the end result makes it all worth it. testers on multiple variants / devices / configs came back positive.
While the buglist still leaves some to be desired i think this is as good as i can make it for now. maybe in the future if there was a V5 we will see it reduced.
The changelog is massive, and to summarize it, many annoying things in V2/V3 were finally resolved including the most important thing which is CALLING. US variants are finally properly supported. except the ones that use QMUX modems. maybe that will be for another day
As always, THANK YOU for being dedicated to this project. and special thanks to @DR_Amoxicillin @corsicanu @TheOGLunarixus and my testers for helping both directly and indirectly
I hope you Enjoy the ROM. if you appreciate this project consider donating @ Paypal
V3 Notes
Hey everyone, Somehow we are still standing with this project, it is as horrible as it seems, yet fun. I started this project 8 months ago to "flex" only, turns out people enjoy it including myself, Through Oreo and Pie this project has been hell to make yet i think we are at a state were we can drop the ALPHA and BETA labels of!, V3 was in active development for over 2 months (Unlike V2 where i started a month before release) This one was carefully built, and entirely from scratch (For the third time). However i understand, you guys are tired of Note7FE. and want something different, Thanks to my partner @corsicanu that is possible. He crafted one of the best feature-full roms on xda. HadesRom and with that as a base for our project, This device became something else, something amazing. and honestly better than any rom i would have made feature wise. Thanks to him and All the flagship features such as infinity wallpapers, Some S10 Features and many others are present, the aroma is PACKED with goods. This rom is around 200/300 MB larger than the previous one (which wasn't small to begin with) however i believe it is worth it. Me and [MENTION=7098450]kill-switch[MENTION] and my testers spent alot of time perfecting it, Now we support every variant that uses Exynos7420 besides china variants, those are to come later. the US variants of the S6E+ And Note 5 are supported too. I will be making a dedicated S6 thread aswell
While i am 100% sure not all users will have the same experience, i believe the vast majority will enjoy it, As always this rom is NOT for everyone, if you want a stock camera, this aint it chief. no matter how much we want it, it is just not gonna happen any time soon if ever, thats just the nature of developing a rom that is 2 major versions beyond samsung. if you dont mind the limitations mentioned below, Enjoy it as much as possible.
And as always, if you appreciate this project and want to support us , press thanks, share your opinions and help the people in this thread who are struggling. I wont be available 24/7 to do so.
You can also help us purchase more cocaine to continue development by donating me Here or @corsicanu here or @kill-switch here or @lunarixus Here
V1/V2 Notes :
So. 5 months ago i posted this ROM. big mistake, it means i have to maintain it, which i suck at. after 2 rebases and finishing V2 twice. OneUI happened for some reason god knows why, but yeah. This ROM is BETA AF. there is alot of crap that needs to be fixed besides the general bugs we had in oreo. give or take, if you are adventurous. go ahead and flash it, if not. dont B*itch in the thread about it and flash another ROM. This ROM is NOT for average ROM users. it is for those who want to be on the bleeding edge.. it wont come out of BETA until the bug list becomes shorter. This ROM is OFFICIALLY SUPPORTED ONLY on the NOTE 5 International variants. its the one i have, the one i can test personally. it will BOOT on N5/S6/S6E And S6E+ and work well relatively speaking if you bother to read the F.A.Q. Korean and US variants are also supported for all those models via Aroma options so take care. however Note 5 US variants might not work. you can try. S6/S6E support is very BETA so use with a grain of salt, a big one. read the f.a.q for tips on how to make the experience suck less.
Eventually when you discover a new Bug that shouldn't be there, DO NOT SEND ME MATLOGS. CATLOGS or whatever. Follow the guide up there on How to properly send logs. otherwise i wont care less about your post. very simple. Remember that this port is NOT supped to be possible. we should not be running oneUI, but the stars aligned in our favor. And please there is no need to tell me to fix XYZ. if its listed in bugs or was reported. im on it.
So. TLDR; This may or may not be your daily rom, it depends on who you are. if you want oneUI, this is the price. if not, there are plenty of other ROMs based on Nougat that will work right. so use them instead and let the thread be in peace.
I sincerely hope the people who end up using this rom have fun, its a fun experience, ive been using it for the past month. and its refreshing.
Old releases (Booreo)
Hey Note 5 Community, This is my first project for this device, one of many to come. many of you might know me from my Note4 projects, i have decided to purchase the note5 in order to provide for this community quality ROMs , in hopes that maybe one day everyone here will be using an Oreo based port, instead of living on nougat that samsung left us with.
Why N7FE and not N8 S9 or any newer port ? Simply said, it is too early for me and the current state of oreo. there is some important stuff that needs ironing out before introducing more bugs. N7FE Struck a great balance between a stable port, and a feature rich one. i have also thrown in alot of additional stuff you can check below.
Support for other variants will come in the future, i choose to support this small amount due to time constraints.
RULES OF POSTING : READ everything before commenting, And especially the install steps, the rom has been tested thoroughly for a long time, so if you have an critical issue like not booting or no sim, you missed the instructions, posts that are irrelevant to this project will be ignored(Constructive criticism is welcomed). If you do face a new bug however, dont just say "hey bug here" provide more information, and a LOGCAT, bug reports without logcats will most likely be ignored.

Floyd V5.0 F.A.Q
Samsung Camera Guide
-Samsung camera only runs when auto brightness is turned off
-VideoRecording : on front/back go to ProMode > ColorTone > Tone1 > Record
--Front camera only records well at 720P
--Videos recorded will be 24~30FPS
-Selfies : Long press cam icon > select selfie
--This will switch to front camera
--To switch to main > long press icon > select auto
Few notes about the samsung camera, it seems that on the S6 its not very stable. so the best way to lunch selfie is :
1) Long press camera icon > Selfie
2) if it FCs, just tap the camera icon again and DONT long press to pick selfie
Then to switch to back camera long press and select Auto, you should not face any FCs there
Floyd V4.0 / V5.0 F.A.Q
Q : No Simcard being detected
A : Disable / remove SIMLOCK From another device or ROM
Q : Games are Laggy/Pix-elated/Stutter/sucks/crashes
A :
1- settings > advanced features > gamebooter > turn it off
2- in twrp mount system then use file manager to delete system/app/GameOptimizingService
i forgot to remove this in V4 and it causes ALOT of issues with games (pix-elated graphics , lag , weird stretches etc)
Q : Device is running too hot
A : The best way to go about this is to follow @skywoker guide here : XDA you should still play around with the voltages to find what is most stable for you
Q : Whatsapp web QR not working
A : Better and newer workaround : Here
Old workaround :
For those, who have problems when trying to use Whatsapp Web:
1. Go to Developer Options
2. Change the Smallest Width to 443 dp (443 works for me, try bigger or smaller value)
3. Switch to WhatsApp and scan QR Code
4. Restore Smallest Widht to 411 again

Q : Samsung camera does not turn on
A : Disable auto brightness (idk why dont ask)
Q : Some apps lose internet after a while or at first setup
A : Reboot your device or change process limit in developer options to 2 (due to wifi implementation)
Q : What is the best camera app ?
A : For back photos use samsung camera, for videos and selfies use Footej or idan gcam or unixcamera
Q : Cant lower incall volume on US variants
A : Side-effect of using AOSP HAL, use hkTweaks > MoroSound > reduce earpiece volume
Q : How to use GEARVR ?
A : Download and install GEARVR Setup from APKMIRROR
P.S : it is very laggy. in order to fix that you need to edit system/build.prop and change SM-N960F to SM-N920C
However that is likley to break BixbyVoice. and maybe other FE specific features which are unclear now
Q : how to use GameTools ?
A : Due to prop being changed to N950F to support bixby, if you want to use Gametools go to settings > apps > show system apps if needed > gametools and UNINSTALL updates
P.S : You can also disable it from auto updating from there
Q : My gallery cant sync samsung photos from Cloud
A : A common bug on oneUI roms from samsung. we are waiting for an update
Q : How to get Root ?
A : Download Magisk and MagiskManager from the Official Thread . flash magisk.zip and install the APK
Q : Can i use SView cover ?
A : Only basic support is added (enable in aroma) i have not tested it further
Q : What to do after the rom is setup ?
A : Go to samsung apps, let the phone update everything
Q : My phone does NOT boot help pls
A : Ensure you have LATEST AF bootloader and modem installed, did all the wipes, and did your house chores,
Old
-- Oreo version F.A.Q --
Camera works in apps that have their own jpeg processing, whatsapp, snapchat are some
HDR+ Might cause weird wobbbling in google camera, avoid it
For the most optimal feature set, Pick CSC instead of OMC
- In some countries OMC can lose feature sets
If you pick OMC be sure to select the RIGHT slection for simcard question at setup wizard
- Failure in doing that will keep the the popup and no simcard will work
- You can Pick CSC to avoid this or read the thread instructions
Q : Camera doesnt open (googlecam)
A : try to install manually from here
Q : Phone took alot of time to boot, and is very laggy
A : pay attention to install steps and reboot if you flashed magisk
Q : There is SIM popup that keeps coming to ask me for restart
A : you DID NOT follow the instructions, Reinstall the rom and pay attention
Q : in the first SIM question in setup wizard, language is not english, what does it say
A : The RIGHT button is what you need to press, it will factory reset the phone (not touching your internal) and setup your /EFS with an OMC file that is linked to your simcard, so the rom will auto detect your CSC just like official samsung phones
Q : I dont see any EDGE panels after installing
A : Reboot the phone
Q : How is battery Life ?
A : With some tests and some cycles, it will be better than stock due to optimzations
P.S : These patches are only needed by Floyd V5
They have been integrated into V5.1
FloydV5 - NavBar Fix : Download
- Only use if you ticked NavBar in aroma.

Snapchat banning fix and 4K Video recording (using gcam / unix cam)
Some users reported snapchat banning them, it was due to a signature verification mod, so ive removed it.
Flash noblur/blur that should be self explanatory
4K Video recording patch thanks to @Cvolton
First comment, oh, this isn't YT, anyway i'll flash this on my G920F dude

one ui v2.0 was my first entry to custom roms and i was supriced and i was so amazed by it.I used the rom for a quiet sometime and it was ok but it had so many bugs some were ok for me but after a while i tried 2 or 3 different roms that are stable and they were fine but i ws not getting the same feeling the same experience that i had with one ui rom i daily checked the thread for updates and today as the daily routine i checked the thread and wow it has been updated i was super amazed.I searched for the download links but they were not there so i thought it will take a day or two to get those but i recieved a telegram notice saying that new verison has released i rushed to the thread and downloaded it. wow it had so many options to choose ,love that. Im currently exploring it . By the way huge huge huge thanks for the developer and all the other people who made this possible . Thanks for giving a new life for this aging device.Love you guys a lot.
Rom is superb and gaming is also smooth. I have not encountered any problems as of now.. Great work done.. Thanks for giving life to our old device
Hey,
First congratulations for this, it's a really good news Pie (and especially One UI) is coming to our phones. By the way, it's really funny to see people are more hyped by a Samsung port rather than AOSP, who would have believed this couple of years ago ^^
The ROM is smooth even if the lack of HWC can be felt sometimes (freezes, etc). Everything works fine except one thing: in-call audio. Whether speakers or not, I can only hear sound for like a half of second then it mutes (the volume is at max), also switching speakers ON/OFF can produce a little freeze (the call duration counter freezes for like 4 seconds).
Except this and of course already known bugs (stock camera for example), nothing to report! I tried to force enable HWC by tweaking build.prop and the result is even better, it's very smooth I can only congratulate you and all the team behind for this work!
I come back to my original ROM since calls seems buggy but however whenever they get fixed I might switch back to it.
Model: G925F

Interesting, we are using AOSP 9.0 Audio hals at the moment, when tested earlier this month it was a mixed bag. on some variants it works right away, and calling again would result in no audio, calling one more time will have a different result and so on, however last few tests we did it worked most of the time, it sucks to hear but not unexpected. the rom got delayed a week due to S6 only call issues.
ill see if i can figure out what is going on, maybe we can use a different hal (on V2 the N7FE port we used note7 Audio HAL and that was flawless, for some reason it just doesn't work now)
ill see what i can do, thanks for the report and kind words
Sim Card not working on S6 G920F
Thank you very much!

I forgot to include the US variants fix in the rom. GG myself. T/W8 only, P probably wont work , and its for S6/S6E/S6E+/N5)
N5_US is for : N920T/N920W8/N920IDK | G928T/G928W8/G928IDK (Only Note5/S6E+ US variants)
S6_US is for G920T/G920W8/G920IDK | G925T/G925W8/G925IDK (Only S6/S6E US variants)

No, he's talking about AOSP 9 Audio HAL, because some S6 users have audio issues.
Same with mine. No audio in call G920F. Also the home screen cannot be switched to night mode. Other than these rom is so good and smooth.
In call audio is fixed. Reinstalled rom with data wipe. Thanks for this very nice one ui rom.
Very Nice Rom
I just flashed rom yesterday, and its very smooth
All feature's are working, have tried resurrection remix 7 which have so many lags
good job anan
just one thing is frustrating is camera in app's (NEVER MIND)
Thanks A lot:good::good::good::good:
