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.
