[Fundraiser] Lineage OS development for Galaxy S10/+/e (Exynos) - Samsung Galaxy S10 Guides, News, & Discussion

MOD EDIT: Prepayment type fundraisers are not allowed on this site

Just donated, would love to see this rom!

Funding update, Since a lot of people in group have shown interest in paypal info instead of going thru funding site Ill provide info and ammount collected in this post
as of right now we are sitting at 500/550 euros
(Actually even closer as ill add my money and try to find cheapest available device (Going for s10 as it has all of the features that might show up to be messier to implement than on s10e))
Paypal you can use to donate is <Mod Removed>
If you donated and want a refund feel free to conact me in PM, This post will be updated few times per day to reflect new ammount collected
As a little background i worked on exynos devices since 2014 starting with note 2, As of right now I'm maintaining s7 and s8 series of devices, I am also a member of LineageOS so once everything works as expected it shouldnt take too long for device to recieve official builds.
if you have any questions feel free to ask me either here in telegram or via PM
Once moeny is collected donation links will be removed

Why? FYI the s10 can run lineage already. simply install the Univeral system image build
The S10 is fully compatible with treble 2, literally just install any GSI Rom, including Google's official Android Q Beta for GSI
Be aware the camera is total crap though, its like taking pictures from messenger / whatsapp.
This is a thing since the S9.

The phone is treble ready.
Unless you are starting from scratch I don't see this require.

Even though it is Treble ready, I doubt it will be daily driver ready, some form of development is required.
Really looking forward to getting LOS, I am starting to get bored with my S10e

What magical GSI are you talking about? Have you even tried GSIs on S10? It doesn't work any good. Lots of major bugs. That won't magically fix itself. If Ivan can help if people donate device, and people want to donate, let this be.

The current state of gsis is not daily driver ready
Bugs: MTP, Proximity sensor, Signal bars, Bluetooth, NFC, HWC, deep sleep, Fingerprint, brightness range, auto brightness
Having a device specific rom is always better

Still no luck in booting Q gsi - any advices?

you can get some s10 on swappa for cheap unless you really want new

Those bugs were probably due to the specific rom you were using, as HWC in aosp gsi is literally mandatory for google to certify the device. Its on the list of treble requirements even

Dont get me wrong, i still appreciate decice specific roms(mostly for kernel), just wanted to make people aware really
Good luck

it doesn't work, it didn't work properly since pie on s9 either sure it will show up as working in logs (dumpsys SurfaceFlinger) but anyone who tried using it will notice graphical glitches in transition animations, due to samsungs messed up implementation of dealing with fences in hwc2 (they treat it same way as hwc1 fences) but i guess some people would rather be stubborn than do some research, furthermore he should know big oems get exempt from some tests sometimes, take for example a fact previously samsung had completely different fingerprint enrolling percentage calculation so fingerprint couldn't be enrolled by default you either had to use custom hal (like we did at lineage) or hack up system like phh did

I've tried 3 gsis till now and i can confirm its not a rom specific bug.
And Samsung doesn't fully follow the rules set by google
I would really suggest you to try a gsi yourself if you're thinking it's something usable in its current state.

Yeah s8 has stable lineage right now, Well next update will bring even more things to it, Previous maintainer didnt do much, Also i personaly dont have plans of working on qcom variants as stated previously as i enjoy working on exynos more and have a lot of experience with it so i would leave qcom to someone else as it should also be way easier

How could you be bored of oneui and the themeing and all the other things you have on stock... i think your just curious to have linage os running on your phone you mean because all youll find is poor battery and performance and a poor camera and over heating issues then youll be back to stock in no time....then ull get curious again when something else comes up and youll do it all over again then keep repeating lol...past experience for me haha thats y i dont even root now days...was talking about myself in that rant btw.

[REQUEST] Bring the new Lineage OS to A (2016) Series

The Lineage OS is just getting out, and since A (2016) series phones really need a stock android based ROM, it would be very nice to see some developers working for this beautiful device as well. Given how popular this phone is, i think it's a shame there's no stock android ROM for it. We beg you developers, TouchWiz is really annoying!

Exynos + a mid-range device will not probably happen, since Exynos is harder to develop on than Snapdragon and since our phone is not a flagship, not a single good developer will bother. Only way is for some rich guy on here to create a bounty for a LineageOS rom, lol.

A base pure AOSP rom would be just as good as lineage OS... I know this isn't one of the devices devs pay attention to, but they underestimate them. I would really like a Lineage rom for my SM-A510M.

Then the driver model / HAL of Android is still a shameful failure and pressure should be put on Google / OHA in some effective way to finally make it proper, granting the way to to use unified, system version independent driver packages published by hw component manufacturers and a way must be provided to install them into ROM bases without complicated kernel compilation and similar ancient Linux-way methods. The wide compatibility of Dalvik / ART apps was accomplished very well without holding back the development of new features regarding the API, so I think they could be able to come up with a similar wonderful solution overcoming Linux kernel's rigid dependency hell. Then the system updates could finally be in the hands of even simple users, raising Android's flexibility on an attainable ground to the level which it always promised and thus securing the platform's hegemony on mobile devices for the future.
(I'm not a ROM developer, but I have years of experiences in a lot other fields of software development so I know what I'm speaking)

[BOUNTY] AOSP Roms for Note8

Good news everyone!
A really awesome Developer @SaschaNes who has a lot of knowledge with making AOSP device trees etc, wants to help us with getting Official/Our own builds of Lineage and RR and other awesome AOSP roms. The only problem is that he doesn't have Note8 yet so he can't try/debug his builds. Currently I can help him, but if he had his own device, everything would happen A LOT faster. So if You could donate some money to him, it would help a lot. If he gets the device, by Christmas we might have a daily driver of Lineage 15 and other AOSP roms.
What AOSP roms could give us? Freedom! We could get new Android versions faster, and obviously pure AOSP roms that don't have Samsung Experience theming for those who don't like it. Pure Android also allows us to get more stuff to work on Note8 like Xposed or Substratum.

It's been a while since I was messing around with this stuff but as I recall, didn't ASOP Roms kill a lot of S-Pen functions? Or other stuff that TW-Based Roms can only do?

They do. But some people like AOSP. And having more roms is awesome. This way You can switch between different UIs every week or two. Plus You get Substratum themes and all Xposed modules. Aaand faster Android updates. Some people would like to have a Note8 and Pixel 2XL. But they can't buy them both. So they buy Note8 and this way they can still enjoy AOSP .
The only Samsung appstore I really use are the camera and translate with the s-pen. Other than that I use google and blackberry's android apps. Would all spend functions be lost? Like pressure sensitivity and the little circle that appears when I press the button to start using translate or quickly open apps?
I literally have ever other Samsung service disabled with bkdisabler. Stock android with the latest security patches and updates would be great.
How would updates work anyways. Would we ge then straight from google or do we have to flash a new room or every update?

The only real downside to flashing AOSP roms is that you lose ALL Samsung Functionality. I am pretty sure the SPEN loses all the cool functionality - Live Write among others, and you lose the Samsung CAMERA for sure. there are other camera apks you can run of course, but not the SAMSUNG camera - which is one of the major things I like most about the NOTE - that and the SPEN of course.
Don't get me wrong - running AOSP roms have it's advantages but there is definately a trade off.

Android P for RN3?

So Android P rolled out, and I was wondering, we've been blessed with devs work and got every great update and tons of rom for this device. And was wondering is there by any chance getting Android P based roms in future. Also I was specially wondering about RR, because I like that a rom alot.
Well will we be getting android P, or I shouldn't get my hopes up?
Just wait patiently. The sources are available, just wait until a dev cooks a build for kenzo. Or when proper GSIs will be available.
Sure thing buddy, by any chance you also want VoLTE and 10 hours SOT?
Nobody maintains Kenzo for income, just because they feel like sparing time, for crying out loud it was just formally announced today, so if you want P go ahead and build it on your own.
Just stop this kind of threads, they are just spam.

Sorry, the devs need income and now the devs like @rocknegi have started p**n for ₹50/day or ₹200/month cause the users aren't donating enough money.

I know but just use some sense? We are not devs, we are normal users like you. How do we all users know if a dev can develop Android P. Plus, do you think a dev will announce 'Hey Niggas, I'll develop Android P rom for you all niggas asking for it, wait for few hours:. No?
The dev need to look into the source, need time to see what all bugs needs to be fixed, else users like you will come here and say it's buggy, that doesn't work, this doesn't work right?
Another sensible answer: Android P sources are just released. It's not like magic to develop rom directly from the source. Needs a lot of hack, back port blobs and things we don't even understand.
Summary: it's a redundant question as of now. Please wait, if there's a Android P rom, you will see it here. Till than, enjoy other roms.

As a user of redmi note 3 . i just hope dev make android p for this device.
As one of the lineage 15.1 maker for Redmi Note 3, yep, we will do bringup after 9.0 source code release, and should be easier than Oreo, as Pie impacted a lot of backport comparable, please don't ask lots of annoying OTA, follow XDA rule, P will be coming to Kenzo/Kate after sometimes, but for Treble is more harder as blobs are old, we need to wait hydrogen and suzu devices etc updates for new blobs, for more Treble working, and even CAF for msm8952 board not impacted treble, unlike msm8953 board, so treble now is experimental and don't expect stable treble in a short time.
---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------
And for my lineage 15.1 long time no updates because I teams with @Carlos Arriaga, and he is back in July so I and other team members need to do some updates, my 15.1 new build will release soon

Thanks for this reply. Won't be asking for annoying updates, just wanted to know that is all.
Well, speaking of Android Pie development, I've found a Pixel Experience ROM that is based on Android Pie through a Telegram channel
Known broken features:
• Bluetooth
• VoLTE
• Stock camera app, but the camera works for stills and video (Open Camera)

(link: http://t.me/KenzoRoms_News) t.me/KenzoRoms_News

NOTA BENE: Try it at your own risk, as it is not developed by me, but if you want to download it and try it, here's the link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1KqyUEdUgtW5coyoTlHuuN0Y2Jt1aKnn-
Yep. I've been using the Pixel Experience 9.0 from @thestrechh as my daily driver for a couple days now.
It's usable if you can get by without VoLTE and Bluetooth.
Gcam works, but can't change the settings and it crashes a lot. Front and back camera stills and video all working.
The rom feels pretty buggy and a bit sluggish to me. CPU operations seem to take an unusually long time. Maybe all the cores are not being utilized optimally. (Don't know. I haven't actually tested.)
I'm sure this rom will continue to get better and better in the coming days. I'm anxious to dirty flash the coming updates.
Excellent work by @thestrechh.

Gcam works, but can't change the settings and it crashes a lot. Front and back camera stills and video all working.
The rom feels pretty buggy and a bit sluggish to me. CPU operations seem to take an unusually long time. Maybe all the cores are not being utilized optimally. (Don't know. I haven't actually tested.)
I'm sure this rom will continue to get better and better in the coming days. I'm anxious to dirty flash the coming updates.
Excellent work by @thestrechh.

I've not noticed sluggish performance here, but I have noticed bugs here and there, which is par for the course, considering the infantile state of Android Pie development.
Still though, for an early release, it works almost excellently

I decided to do a benchmark with antutu. The score seems fine. Guess I must be mistaken.

It happens. Either way though, the coming weeks will be interesting in terms of Android Pie ROM development
The bug of battery drain in standby (mobile network) apear in Android PIE like Oreo?
Can you share battery stats?
Thanks

did you have the Pixel Setup crashing after flashing this rom? if you do, what's the solution?

SS Galaxy View2. Still in production? Anroid 9.0 or 10.0 rom?

1) I noticed the Samsung Galaxy View 2 still appears to be active on the Samsung and AT&T Websites, but is currently out of stock globally and has been for a few months.
Does anyone know if this product is still in production?
-------------------
2) If it is still in production, and becomes available again, I do recommend this product for anyone looking for the largest available tablet.
Despite its shortcomings (only 1080p ips, mediocre processor and ram) it remains the largest tablet on the market, and I love mine.
-------------------
3) @deadman96385 I know you probably never want to look at Samsung View roms again after that last project, but if production continues on the View2, you may want to buy one :good: and then consider developing an Android 9.0 or 10.0 port (Currently on oreo 8.1).
I doubt it would be a pain like the original View rom. The awful proprietary charger from the View is replaced by standard Samsung usb C port at the very least.
This looks like yet again the only tablet on the market of this size. And it is, at the very least, popular enough to sell out.
The Oreo 8.1 is still supported by the vast majority of apps that don't require deep learning, and still holds 12% market share >>> but with google pushing 9.0 dev I think a 9.0 rom would vastly extend life of this tablet.
Thoughts?
Be well!
Oh are ATT bootloader still locked?
Oh wait are ATT bootloaders still locked with no way around? I thought Samsung devices were unlockable regardless.
If locked then I guess that makes my post irrelevant. Can someone confirm for me?

RIP. Understood. Thank you.
Then I will ask one last related question since you are qualified to answer:
How long do you see 8.1 Oreo remaining usable with the majority of app? From what I can tell from the dev release, 9.0 was made so that most apps developed for 9.0 API 28 can easily be backwards compatible with previous api. Is this true? Should I be confident apps will continue to run on oreo for some time to come?
This question should help anyone who stumbles across this thread decide whether or not to buy a used (or new if they ever resupply) Galaxy View2. Because I think if Samsung was going to update it to pi themselves they would have already.
BTW - on sale at best buy right now for $399.

I just grabbed one, to use for a project, but I admit that it's kinda brutal that it might be stuck at 8.0 forever. you cant even install Signal on it.
Hopefully a way around this appears to update it to 10.0 into the modern era. Must be why best buy dumped it -- recession plus shipped with end-of-life software

a lot of apps dont run on galaxy view 2. mail and youtube and maps will probably always run but lots of niche stuff doesnt run.
Hopefully someone figures out how to get this device from 8.0 to 10.0
Got my View 2 a few days ago and I'm loving it so far!
It would be such a game changer if someone could (somehow) get v10 running on the device.
Right now I can't get AT&T messaging working - I want to receive my text messages from my phone on the tablet - whenever I try to sign in to AT&T messaging I am immediately taken back to the AT&T Messaging login page. I've contacted AT&T support and they said they have created a ticket for support to resolve but not a lot of hope there... At least NumberSync is working.
From the sound of it, it seems it's very unlikely we'll ever see an OS upgrade which is sad but I'm enjoying device as of now!
i heard that samsung might change their mind and provide an update for it! but it might be thru at&t only

General LineageOS ROM discontinued. again. Future development discussions

So I really don't know what's going on and what's happening behind the stage.
Obviously alonsoj636 decided to discontinue and abandon his greatly admired LineageOS builds from the past months.
I haven't found any notes or statements as to why he finally has decided to do so and I was not able to reach him on xda because he blocked PMs. If you read this, maybe you want to be so kind and give us some hints what's happened!
Anyway...
we, as the RM10 LineageOS community, have to face reality and that means: currently there is no LineageOS rom build and maintained by anybody. That either means sticking with old versions, changing ROMs/GSI or switching the phone completely.
While alonsoj636's versions are still working very well, they eventually become outdated sometime.
This thread should be used to coordinate discussions about future LineageOS development (if there is enough interest and people).
You have 3 options.
Wait for another builder to pick it up
Build it yourself
Run Lineage GSI from AndyYan (guide here)
One more thing. Building a ROM for a device is never considered a development. What you're referring to, is maintenance. Lineage's development will never stop.
Alright, so the cat is out of the bag on this one:
While I'm really happy that Alonso kept maintaining the ROM for a while, the reality is that he wasn't interested to go official anytime soon and kept being vague about it.
As for me, I'm building up the courage to do MPK99 recommendation and go with GSI. Apparently GSI works like old ROMs, and it doesn't nuke TWRP, so that seems nice.
Try GSI. It's perfect.

I'm pretty aware of that, however all new ROMs are tagged as development on this xda forum so I used this wording.
I think all 3 mentioned options are valid.
I could build it myself, however the time is the problem. Finding someone else building lineage in the future seems to be difficult. The past showed there aren't as many people interested and even less have the time and skill to build it.
GSI sounds like a wonder bag to me. while it's great to always have the latest updates, it might lack of the features LineageOS had for years. (i think of things like os-level online permission per app (wifi/cell), permission center, etc.). you can workaround that with 3rd party tools maybe, but it's cumbersome again.
Also GSi still sounds like a bit of an unpolished OS for this specific phone, with some kind of bugs and lack of features (compared to LOS). it's everybodys own decision to put priority on either that or on latest updates, though.
I might as well give it a try sometime, but I'll need enough spare time for experiments, so it won't happen soon.
my hopes are low, but maybe someone will step up and also build new LOS roms in the future.

Those are false claims. You need to use it before committing on it.

There's nothing to experiment, as user's experiments are logged on my thread. You can follow them. I'm myself a gsi user for an year long btw. As for the time, it'll take not more than 10 minutes. And I've laid out post configuration & fixes on the thread which'll be another 5 minutes.
well what I meaned with unpolished is what I've red in your thread about bugs like -don't touch screen while booting- etc. I haven't installed it so I solely say that by reading these posts.
and experimenting is synonymous with taking time to clean flash and reinstall everything again while learning and fixing problems with new OS/roms/GSIs.
I'll have a look sometime and I'm grateful there is progress.
Atleast I was transparent about the bugs on it.

Not touching the screen 'while booting' is an easy fix & you won't often reboot your device while work in the first place.

Just the procedure would be new. Rest of it would be your same old preferred AOSP derivative (lineage).
you did well. nothing to complain.
the more I dip into the topic the more I think it might be worth a try. don't count the time till I can focus on it, it'll take a while. but it sounds more and more promissing and the overall experience might as well get even better with time.
regardless of the GSI option, let's still have this thread and discussion opened for the case of some future LineageOS-CustomROM progress.
I'm very sorry for my abrupt decision to kill Lineage.
some personal and family problems made me think that I couldn't continue with this (nothing too big, don't worry... typical family fights)
after some messages I decided to get back to the action.
I will upload a new build with improvements once I unlock my bootloader (not very soon) as my RN10 is my only source of internet and I can't use the Mi Unlock Tool.
Thread will remain locked until the new build is done.
Thank you for your understanding and sorry for my bad steps ....
Regards
Thanks for the informational update
no worry, we are all human. as software engineer and project maintainer in troubled times it's often better to just keep calm, step back for a while, let the projects delay or freeze, that won't really hurt anyone. and then check back later to make a judgement if the project(s) really have to end.
It wasn't that bad for us either, in the meanwhile some of us learned a bit more of the GSI option which might also be a viable way to run LOS in the future. But everything has up- and downsides.
I'm glad we get to see a few more updates for the LOS custom rom.
