Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge (exynos:herolte/hero2lte) call for testing
-
@katharinechui I have now confirmed that I can connect my device to my car via bluetooth without any additional steps. Receiving a call seemed to work well also. The sound was a bit choppy at first, but this might have been caused by the caller being in a place where the cellular reception was not ideal.

Hi @katharinechui if everything works as i hope i might get my hand on a 7edge and am interested installing UT on it, hows the progress on the device and what prerequisite do i need to get it started once i get my hand on one… not sure if there is a snapdragon and exynox versions do i need to focus on one variant if available? Thank you and keep up the great work.

@a-sinner here is your answer :
@katharinechui said in Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge (exynos:herolte/hero2lte) call for testing:
Hi, I am a Galaxy S7 exynos owner and I have been working on a halium 11 based port for both the exynos S7 and S7 Edge.

@keneda join forces with @katharinechui if you haven’t yet and build it together would be great to see it working on a newer port …

for those who wish to attempt waydroid, here are some instructions and system.img vendor.img for h11
note that memory might be a bit tight until the next OTA which enables zram

Thanks @katharinechui , amazing work! I will definitely try back home in few weeks, I have two devices and hope than one will be using
/dev/sefp0
.Side question: I also tried it with @aribk a while ago without much success, our port was based an Halium7/LineageOS 14 and I spent hours trying to find an issue in the image format: the camera was able to do A/B/C vs the format expected by the camera app being X/Y/Z. Did you encountered such thing? I still wonder what was the solution
-
@oliv I have no idea what is A/B/C and X/Y/Z, I didn't have to investigate much into the camera because it pretty much just worked with the LineageOS blobs from https://github.com/8890q/proprietary_vendor_samsung/tree/lineage-18.1, except https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/qtubuntu-camera/-/issues/22 but that seems to be related to how UT starts audio and video recording instead
camera also just works on waydroid

Hi,
first of all thank you for your work, seems a difficult task for being only you working on this port.
I'm an owner of galaxy exynos too, only that mine is hero2lte, I would like to help in the development of this, if you need help with testing specific things I'm really interested. Although I'm some kind of a newbie regarding Android stuff, but hey this isn't Android but Linux!, despite that I'm also a Linux poweruser (they call it like this) and I think I can do at least something. Anyway... I'm more than willing to help, just please let me know.
Cheers
P.S. forgive my english, is not my native language
