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.

While most hardware are tested working, I could use help testing some of the untested hardware which you can find in the preview of the device info merge request below.

While fingerprint sensor is marked as tested, I only have one of the possible sensor shipped with the S7 so I could only test one of them. (/dev/vfsspi is tested, /dev/esfp0 is not tested)

Notable untested items:

MMS in, out
SIM card PIN unlock

Testing of the installer config for S7 edge would be really appreciated as well since I do not own a S7 edge.

Device merge request and sources: https://gitlab.com/ubports/infrastructure/devices.ubuntu-touch.io/-/merge_requests/394

Install:

Installer config pull request: https://github.com/ubports/installer-configs/pull/197
herolte for flat, hero2lte for edge

Run the installer with the -f flag to use the pending config

# S7 flat
ubports-installer_0.9.6-beta_linux_x86_64.AppImage -f herolte.yml

# S7 Edge
ubports-installer_0.9.6-beta_linux_x86_64.AppImage -f hero2lte.yml

@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

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

(pulse, ofono, halium rild, or any logs you think related)

For mms, please add logs here if possible
