[SM-G920/5FDI] NanoROM TWOSP 7.0.2 20170302 [5DQA7] - Galaxy S6 Android Development

*** NanoROM 7.0.2 20170302 ****
=== See 2nd Post for ChangeLog ===
=== See 3rd Post for Kernel Settings ===
=== Disclaimer ===
Code:
This ROM is made for S6 G920F / G925F only
flash at your own risk, your warranty will be void (knox flag 0x1)
I'm not responsible if your device bricks or whatever.
=== What does TWOSP mean ===
TW = TouchWiz, OSP = Open Source Project. That's just same marketing-bull****-bingo-buzzword because this ROM contains lots of Open Source Software. Nothing serious.
=== Why yet another ROM ===
I'm one of those few users who experienced sudden random reboots after updating stock firmware after rooting their device. So the following huge text may contain a taste of drama.
No custom ROM or even Stock ROM did work for me, because PLOD(tm) (pink led of doom & Knuckles). Only working ROM is CM13, but that's lacking proper in-call mic (sometimes doesn't work) and Camera, so it's sadly a no-op.
So I was trying to figure out what goes wrong and try to build a ROM that does simply work for my device and not result in a myriad of random reboots. So here it is: my second customized stock android ROM (the first one was for some ARNOVA Tablet).
And since the ROM does now already exist, I was like:
"Hey, why not go to xda and publish it?"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so here I am. And maybe it will solve the issue for other users, too.
=== So what does cause those random reboots ===
I don't know exactly. No really, it's difficult to say. Next follows a list of my personal observations on my device. Other devices might behave the same or not (depending on what is wrong with the device).
So this observations might be what will help you to reduce or prevent the random reboots, but they also might not. Enough bla-bla, let's go.
What's not causing it:
xposed
supersu
user apps
Because bare stock ROM installed from KIES will do reboot randomly aswell. It's a mix of kernel (Hacker Kernel gives less than others), build.prop (stock gives less than customized), Google Apps and other bloatware. So picking out a specific issue is difficult.
I also found out that 'userspace' governor and power suspend mode improve stability across different ROMs, so this ROM does set them by default.
Of course devices that have severe hardware damage will still suffer from them, don't expect my ROM to do wonders to broken devices.
=== Why only G920F / G925F ===
Because that's the only model I own, I don't like blind support, but I added G925F kernel upon request.
There are many great multi-device ROMs outwhere to choose from.
=== GApps Vs. microG ===
This ROM allows you to choose between GApps and microG:
1. GApps
Usual Google Apps as you know them, nothing special to do.
2. microG
Open source Google Apps replacement. This ROM requires you to do the following steps prior to be able to use the Play Store:
Code:
- go to Settings > microG and activate:
- main screen:
- device check-in (for cloud messaging)
- cloud messaging (for app push messages)
- UnifiedNlp Settings:
- configure location backends:
- choose Mozilla and grant permissions
- configure address lookup backends:
- choose Nominatim
- reboot device
- enter Play Store and login as usual
- et voila: you're now on the most possible Open Source ROM for S6
(if we don't take the non-fully-functional CM13 into account)
- NOTE: if the Play Store does not show your already installed apps, or if it does
not show your purchased apps as purchased, got to Settings > Apps >
System Apps > Play Store and force stop it, then it'll properly work
- NOTE: if you get random reboots with microG: disable account sync

=== Recommended Apps ===
not included because reasons, but still cool:
Easy XKCD (F-Droid)
Overchan (F-Droid)
KeePassDroid (F-Droid)
Play Permissions (Xposed)
Play Store Changelog (Xposed)
=== Notes ===
You need to install Xposed Framework separately (not bundled)
Recommended recovery is arter97's TWRP version 3.0.2
I recommend disabling wifi during standby (that is, if you don't have mobile network active during standby) Play Store auto-updates, that usually improves stability for me
If you installed GApps: I also recommend disabling Google ads and Google app verification in Settings > Apps > Google >> Ads / >> Security (because I don't like those "features", call me a tinfoil head )
Further I recommend doing a TWRP backup after everything is setup and working fine (so that you can revert to a working state any time)
If you're on GNU/Linux, I recommend using gMtp for file transfer. ADB sometimes gives weird file permissions.
=== Issues ===
A List of issues, all minor, but I'll still look into them, if I get some time to do so:
You currently need to manually enable supplied Xposed modules (and restart your device).
Don't create a new routine in Good Lock. This triggers some bug in it that causes uninstallation and leaves you without System UI (black screen, no statusbar and launcher, etc).
? You tell me.
=== Download ===
ROM, Bloatware AddOn, Flashable Modem/Bootloader, Synapse Profile, Archive Folder and Beta Folder
Modified Good Lock, microG (broken-out downloads)
Xposed Framework (wanam) for versions until 5.5.7
Xposed Framework (systemless) for versions 5.6.0 and newer
TWRP (arter97)
Fancy materialized TWRP themes
=== Installation ===
virgin S6:
install TWRP, Modem and Bootloader via Odin
go to recovery (possibly backup stock firmware)
factory reset using TWRP
install ROM
reboot and setup
go to recovery and install Xposed
reboot > profit (?)
rooted S6:
update TWRP
reboot recovery
update Modem and Bootloader
reboot recovery (possibly backup current ROM)
factory reset using TWRP
install ROM
reboot and setup
go to recovery and install Xposed
reboot > profit (?)
=== Update ===
- backup ROM in TWRP
route a) dirty flash
install NanoROM
reboot
route b) proper flash
factory reset in TWRP
install NanoROM
reboot
wait until Setup Wizard pops up
reboot into TWRP
restore /data (only /data) from previously made backup
reboot
=== First Start ===
setup phone normally
[optional] go to Settings > AdAway and activate ad blocking
go to Settings > Xposed Framework > Modules > Enable modules
reboot > now [AdAway and] Xposed Modules are set up and working
Note: it may reboot once because of Super Su (but it doesn't on my device) before first sucessful start. It however will reboot once during setup of Xposed Framework.
=== Future ===
As my goal is to get my S6 properly working, I'm not going to add new features without heavily testing them and I won't rush out any update because of a new change set.
I just wanna use my S6 properly (though I do have a Moto G 2015 aswell, but still).
=== Credits ===
That said this ROM contains work from other developers, that saved me a lot of time, because I could adjust already existing stuff. If you feel like missing from this list, please inform me, I'll add you as soon as possible.

Kernel Stuffz
=== Kernel Settings ===
For NanoROM you don't need tools like Synapse or Kernel Adiutor to modify kernel settings. It comes with it's own script to manage kernel settings.
/system/su.d/999kernel​
=== Configuration Files ===
By default the script has three pre-set configuration files:
/system/etc/kernel/arter97.settings arter97 kernel​/system/etc/kernel/hacker.settings Hacker Kernel​/system/etc/kernel/stock.settings Samsung Kernel​
depending on your installed kernel the correct pre-set is loaded. Your own configuration needs to go to
/system/etc/kernel/custom.settings User Settings​
it will always be loaded in favour of the pre-set configurations.
If you don't want the script to do anything, create an empty file:
/system/etc/kernel/disabled.settings​
and reboot, then the kernel default values will be used. Remove that file and reboot to let the script do it's work again.
=== File Format ===
The format of the configuration file is simple
Code:
option=value
for non-array values and
Code:
option=( key1 value1
key2 value2
... ... )
for array values (currently only the voltage table is an array).
=== Possible Options ===
The script covers most relevant options you might want to tweak. Note: even if the installed kernel does not support all settings, your configuration file must include all options, to ensure the script is properly working.
Thus I recommended copying over one of the pre-set configuration files and modify it to your needs. Next follows a list of possible configuration options.
Code:
1] cpu_governor
default values: arter97 userspace
Hacker userspace
stock userspace
use the following command to check available governors:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
2] io_scheduler
default values: arter97 fiops
Hacker sioplus
stock cfq
use the following command to check available schedulers:
cat /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler
3] io_readahead
default values: arter97 2048
Hacker 2048
stock 2048
4] tcp_congestion
default values: arter97 westwood
Hacker reno
stock cubic
5] power_suspend_mode
default values: arter97 1 [userspace] {0, 3 unsupported}
Hacker 1 [userspace]
stock 1 [userspace]
Note: 0 [autosleep]
1 [userspace]
2 [lcd]
3 [hybrid]
6] power_suspend_state
default values: arter97 1 [on]
Hacker 1 [on]
stock 1 [on]
Note: 1 [on] only possible when power_suspend_mode is 1 [userspace],
else it'll always be 0 [off]
7] gentle_fair_sleepers
default values: arter97 0 [off] {unsupported}
Hacker 0 [off]
stock 0 [off] {?}
8] big_max_freq
default values: arter97 2400000 [2.4 GHz]
Hacker 2400000 [2.4 GHz]
stock 2400000 [2.4 GHz]
use the following command to get the clock speeds for big core:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/mp-cpufreq/cluster1_freq_table
9] big_min_freq
default values: arter97 200000 [200 MHz]
Hacker 200000 [200 MHz]
stock 200000 [200 MHz]
use the following command to get the clock speeds for big core:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/mp-cpufreq/cluster1_freq_table
10] low_max_freq
default values: arter97 1800000 [1.8 GHz]
Hacker 1800000 [1.8 GHz]
stock 1800000 [1.8 GHz]
use the following command to get the clock speeds for low core:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/mp-cpufreq/cluster0_freq_table
11] low_min_freq
default values: arter97 200000 [200 MHz]
Hacker 200000 [200 MHz]
stock 200000 [200 MHz]
use the following command to get the clock speeds for low core:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/mp-cpufreq/cluster0_freq_table
12] arch_power
default values: arter97 0 [off] {unsupported}
Hacker 1 [on]
stock 0 [off] {?}
Note: architecture specific power saving options.
13] laptop_mode
default values: arter97 0 [off] {unsupported}
Hacker 0 [off]
stock 0 [off] {?}
14] power_efficient
default values: arter97 N [off] {unsupported}
Hacker Y [on]
stock N [off] {?}
Note: power efficient work queues
15] kernel_samepage
default values: arter97 0 [off]
Hacker 0 [off]
stock 0 [off]
Note: kernel samepage merging reduces unrequired RAM usage,
at slightly less battery life
16] kernel_samepage_sleep
default values: arter97 100 [ms]
Hacker 100 [ms]
stock 100 [ms]
Note: KSM scan intervall in milliseconds
17] kernel_samepage_cpu
default values: arter97 95 [%]
Hacker 95 [%]
stock 95 [%]
Note: KSM maximum cpu usage
18] swappiness
default values: arter97 50 [%]
Hacker 50 [%]
stock 50 [%]
Note: higher value = kernel puts off unused objects from RAM faster
19] dirty_writeback
default values: arter97 0 [off] {?}
Hacker 1 [on]
stock 0 [off] {?}
Note: delays writeback for faster operation, slightly higher chance
of possible data loss when phone is crashing while writing data
20] adb_over_wifi
default values: arter97 -1 [off]
Hacker -1 [off]
stock -1 [off] {?}
Note: default for [on] is 5555 (equals to port)
21] low_volt_table
default value (1800000:500000

Note: de/increment by multiples of 6250, eg: 625000 > 631250 > 637500 > ...
Note: changing this array is only recommended if you know what you're
doing. Wrong handling of this might result in data loss, unstable
operating system or if you overdo it: hardware damage.

I'll push an update later today, because I noticed my Synapse profile is not auto applied. It changes some settings that improve stability on buggy devices.
Depending on my time I may either provide edge hacker kernel as separate zip or digg into aroma.
Also on todo list:
- auto enable xposed mods
- auto grant root for Synapse
- update f-droid

Hello!
My 920F is definitely doing random reboots and random freezes.
I will try your ROM tonight, I think, and I hope that this is going to solve my problems.
But I also have a question: Why is my 930F restarting in the last 5 days?
I mean, I ' ve installed a ROM from XDA a month ago and it worked really fine until 5 day ago?
Is there any way to find out why it keeps restarting and freezing? Maybe a log?

Did you try a factory reset? A logcat might be helpful, but if it's a hardwate issue, it won't show anything.

Not yet, testing still in progress, a small preview of what will be changed (not final):
Code:
apps:
- update F-Droid (0.100-alpha3)
- update K-9 Mail (5.010)
installer:
- auto detect whether device is zeroflte (SM-920F) or zerolte (SM-G925F) and install correct Hacker Kernel version accordingly.
- fix busybox installation
- fix TWRP progressbar
system:
- remove test applications
- show NanoROM version in software info
- by default make the home screens empty
- by default apps are now sorted alphabeticaly
- other minor tweaks
there are still a few more possible changes, but I'm not sure yet whether they'll come with the next update or the one after.

Yes.
On other note:
Hmm... Update takes a bit longer, still need to sort out some things. In the download folder you'll find my Synapse profile. Using this on a buggy device greatly improves stability.
Anyone else having the issue that Synapse does not see the Profile after putting it into /sdcard/Synapse/saved_profiles?
