Worth to buy an S9 to use LOS? - Samsung Galaxy S9 Questions & Answers

Hi all! It's time to change my old Nexus 5 and I'm looking to buy an OP6 or a S9 due to its smaller dimensions.
Thing is I don't like Samsung's personalizations as I heard it slows down very quickly.
Here in Italy I could get an used S9 for 400€. Is it worth to get it with the specific intent of using it only with LineageOS? How does it perform and what am I going to miss from stock android?
Thank you!

Performance wise, S9 performs really well upto this point. I got it since launch and there were only minor drawbacks in the launcher, which were easily removed by installing pixel launcher, and now everything feels smooth. I dont think there is a need for using LOS rom just for speed because you'll lose the great features of samsung.

The features from your camera, I dont think gcam camera is any better than samsung stock. You would also lose any Knox related apps such as secure folder, samsung pass, etc. For me, I dont think there is a need to root now, atleast when it is still receiving software updates .

No you don't. Samsung's proprietary image libraries and enhancements are better than any gcam port will achieve.
Not saying gcam is bad but stock is quite a bit better on Samsung Experience compared to gcam.
also to OP: Note you probably won't be able to use the variable apeture OR the iris scanner to unlock your phone. Also as much of a meme as it is VoLTE also isn't supported on LOS.

so..u are saying that my eyes are ****ed up if i see that photos taken with Gcam are better in every way ..and the eyes of many others see the same results...i don`t know man...maybe is something wrong with your eyes....just saying

Yeah, pretty much. Even inside the GCam thread for the s9 there are plenty of people saying it's not as good as stock. It's one of the reasons why I haven't jumped ship from Samsung Experience yet.
Also, more vibrant color != better photos. They might LOOK better but what I look for in a smartphone camera is color accuracy. If you like saturated hdr+ overblown shots so be it, to each their own.

When i bought the S8, I was hoping that the dev comunity could after some month port an AOSP rom on it but nothing stable really happend. It's a shame because I always prefered stock roms. Then the s9 came with de Treble project and this was for me the best feature that could ever been done.
You have everything that you could wish :
- Sweet design of the galaxy serie with the infinit display and for me the most beautifull overall body design (without the f*****g notch)
- Very great battery life (it easily last the day without have to charge during the day)
- The best performances, smoothness.
- No bugs at all
I always said that the galaxy series had the most complete phones in the market. But TouchWizz was the point where i always been frustrated about. With LOS, i'm ready to say that the S9 is probably the best phone you can get on the market.
Btw, don't worry about the camera's quality. It's still good even whitout samsung's camera framework.
Peace !

The GCam Im talking about is the one from gapps, not the gcam ported from pixel 2 which has HDR+ capability. I agree GCam with hdr+ is superior when it comes to contrast and details, but you dont get it when you are in LOS. That's what Im referring to.

Upgrade oneplus 3 camera to IMX316

I would like to buy a oneplus 3, however the camera is concerning me
According to sample photos, the camera doesn't perform as well as hoped for.
Is it possible to change the module by the latest sony IMX316 for example? It would give a great addition to the already amazing phone

lol of course no. it's not a modular phone. And the camera sensor (sony imx298 ) in my opinion is actually really good. Might not be as good as the s7 one but it's very close to that. Also the developers i suppose will be able to improve the algorithm to make it even better.
Camera isnt best.. But it's good..
Well, i was just wondering if it can be upgraded in the future by changing the camera sensor module (screwing phone open, clipping new one). Perhaps by changing drivers
The best you could hope for would be software updates that might help the camera processing. You'll never be able to switch the sensor module. If you don't like the camera and that's a deal breaker then don't get this phone. Personally I think the camera samples are pretty good. If I need something more then I'll pull out the A6300 and use it instead.

[Q] Regarding VoLTE

Hey guys,
Having been here for sometime, I find development of our device is very slow. But there is progress. I mean the fingerprint was resolved, root was resolved. Almost all critical requirements are stable or near to stable.
Keeping that aside, may I ask why VoLTE is not available in any custom ROM? While it works perfectly with stock considering the fact that stock is actually near to stock Android.
With my previous device(Redmi note 3), a wonderful device, VoLTE bug was solved by restoring the correct Radio, Firmware and the EFS partition (mentioning so that it might become useful).
Will that method​ work for our device? I mean has anyone tried that? Or should we wait for official source release from Lenovo or is it that we've live without VoLTE ?
Sorry for the long post, Thanks for your patience.
Hi, we have Volte code in Lineage 14.1 intial builds.. but later its Gone..!
dont know why.. hope someone answers your question.. !
Not sure if developers are aware of it since majority won't use VoLTE. In the case of Redmi note 3, it's popularity in the Indian market (demanding Reliance Jio) forced devs to find a fix.
Well clearly that's not the case for P2. As we lack popularity and most ROMs are ported rather than built from scratch (I assume. pl correct me if I'm wrong). As a result no one has actually gone into it. If Lenovo has not released the source code then restoring some partition related the radio bands from stock ROM should solve the issue right? Atleast that was the case in RN3.

I am also skeptical to buy p2.The development is not great while RN3 has the best development I guess.Thats why I am stuck in between rn 4 and p2.
If you're crazy for developing then P2 is not for you. I prefer not to do any mods as of now cuz I'm doing all my experiments on RN3
So I bought this having no plans for development... Root yes... But custom ROMs... Nah... RN3 keeps me busy with that.. having said that, I wouldn't prefer RN4 just for the fact that it has better development. Look for other features too.. like the battery and display for instance... And camera too... Honestly I completely disagree with the fact that many complain the camera sucks... I don't really see a reason why as in its a Sony exmor sensor with an f2.2 aperture. Yes it's an f2.2 aperture so low light will be bad it's obvious. But under normal lighting, or sun it's perfect top notch.
Only feature they missed out was an image stabilizer. They could have added any image stabilization tool but then.. for the price it's pretty much over featured I'd say.
Goodluck
This is actually my first phone in a long time that I have no desire to root.
No bloatware to get rid of and have a nice non-root as blocker.

Like I said, I wouldn't normally put features above development, but considering this phone specs features and having used it, I'd definitely suggest P2.
But then there are other factors..
1. Bored to bones with MiUI
2. Redmi feels cheaper and delicate (not sure if I'm alone on this). Holding my RN3 and P2 I could easily pick P2.
3. Camera.. MiUI camera app is ugh.. there's no need for explaining I literally hate it.
4. I'm enjoying P2 without any mods.. not even​root. Clearly not my type.. but i was able to blend in..
That pretty much sums it up. Posts are bit lengthy because I've been through and did a lot of thinking... Hope I was able to help..
Bottom line, you want development go for RN4 else P2 however you can pretty much stay without rooting.
Another option is recommend is the zuk z2

I an getting more battery, amoled display,fast charging with fast charger and almost stock rom.Thats why I am leaning towards p2.AND i personally like p2'a design.Hope development catches up because 2 devs are here doing all the work for this device.I actually kinda feel sad that p2 didn't sell much.Lenovo should have advertised it.RN4 isn't that great in front of this device.And Xiaomi hasn't even released the sources for RN4 still it's so well developed.I really want this device,but I am a guy that flashes roms like every week.Trying out different roms is my passion:silly:.Had it been Moto P2 instead of Lenovo p2,You could have seen a lot more sales
Hello.
I have my P2 for a month, it is the first phone I do not try to root !!
I would like that LENOVO is a true follow-up on this P2. Better than they did to finalize Nougat 7.0.
As said above, if it to a default is the lack of photo stabilizer.
Can I expect a pass on Android 8.0 :fingers-crossed: ... A dream ?
Is there anybody working on "VOLTE Patch" ???

Oneplus 6 Camera port to Oneplus 5T??

Hi all,
Wanted to know if there is any chance of the oneplus 6 camera app being ported to oneplus 5t AND if it will produce any better photos than what we are currently getting on the oneplus 5t.
A part of me hopes that oneplus is just waiting for enough oneplus 6 units to be sold before sending out an update for oneplus 5t that will give us the same processing software and power as the oneplus 6.
Thoughts and opinions on the above are welcome from all, especially the developers who have made this website the awesome place it is today for all mods and apps.

Does it actually though? I've compared pictures and I'm seeing gcam has a bit better overall color from the HDR processing but there is quite a bit of graininess in mid-low lighting settings. OOS cam definitely still does have oil painting effect but it's a lot less pronounced in the latest builds than it was on release, and photos in mid-low lighting are not near as grainy as gcam photos.
Care to change my mind and share your gcam setup/5t fixes you used?

Use the latest apk 7.9.5 and the fixes. Do some research in the unified thread. When hdr enchnaced is on. Longer shutter time. The photos are incredible. Hdr on doesnt do much atm (it used to but thungs are getting fixed atm)
Just dont touch to focus in hdr enhnaced. ( you need root tho. )
please remove
Not rooted yet so haven't tried out GCam. Since i have an extended warranty and damage protection, etc... I have not rooted and frankly ..this is the first android phone where i don't feel the need to root as such. I am more inclined towards an unrooted port of the oneplus 6 camera or maybe an official update... hope it happens sooner or later.

How can it be that you do not see the need for root when you have what you are looking for with root and Gcam? There is no logic in your thinking ... One plus will not give you anything, the Indian continues
the google camera port with latest fix is not compairable to oneplus 6's software or oneplus's software in a decades
the way it handles colors noise and skin is unbelievable
both front and rear hdr I feel now that I don't need to upgrade for a better camera my camera now is more like top 5 smartphones

A question. I have the version 7.8 of the Arnova Pixel 2 with the libraries in Magisk V1 because with the V2 and the last Gcam I lost the facial unlocking. Is this already fixed? If it is fixed which version should I install and what mod of Magisk with the libraries without losing the facial unlocking?

Thank you very much mate. It is amazing this camera so good.
I just took some pictures and have improved more to the 7.8
Can we say that it is better than the native of OP6? I believe that yes hahaha.

of course it is there is no much of improvements in the op6 over op5t
the slightly big improvement is in low light only but still the op6's camera is far from google pixel ,apple and samsung
we get pixel quality photos with this mod so we have a top tier camera flagship degree
We probably take better pictures than the pixel xl 2 because we have a wider f1.7 lens lol

gsi rom performance

its similar to the difference between AOSP vs TW. pretty much day and night really
Actually it isn't touchwiz anymore...
You can watch XEETECHCARE's last year video and you'll find that samsung's software is way better for the galaxy s9, it was faster and it kept everything in the memory while gsi ROM refreshed everything. It's not all about having a stock android software, it's about having the more optimised one which is samsung's software, obviously.
And do note that you'll not be able to use any of samsung exclusive features in these roms...
So yeah it's a day and night difference, third party gsi image is much worse than an official polished software.

i just came to the S9 from an A8 and previous to that was a severely rooted S5 and the S9 doesnt feel that much faster than either of the previous phones i had. And the battery life...

it actually rather is. if you run a GSI, you lose SPay. Many folks dont realize that and they end up tripping knox, blowing the e-fuse and are never able to regain that function on that phone. Magisk is supposedly able to hide root well enough to get it working, but is that risk worth it?

Can someone port One ui 3.0 for Samsung S7 (Exynos)?

Hey, I am waiting for one ui 3.0 for so long. Is there anyone who can port it for S7.
Your work would be appreciated and I will promote the Rom too on my YouTube channel.
Short answer, no.
Long answer, absolutely not.
The best option for you is to wait for someone to create a one ui 3 rom. Impatient? Do It Yourself.
Unless you get a newer device that supports one ui 3.

Too hash bro. Even j7 got one ui 3.0 android r. Hw cant s7 ,which can perform far more better than j7 cant get a ported one ui 3.0 dude. Too rush in giving answer to this guy who just asked a great question. The developers of roms surely will port for s7. It will be disgraceful if even j7 can perform one ui 3.0 where else s7 cant?

S7 needs stable ROM with every feature working, who cares if a OneUI 99 port exist, if it crashes, and/or is missing features ?
To this day, I'm still using ALEXNDR (port of the official ROM on OneUI 1.0/Android 8.0) because it's the only bug-free and feature-complete ROM, every other ROMs have issues and is missing features.

What's the point of having OneUI 3 if you're missing essential features ?
Do you fingerprint scanner works in third-party applications like PayPal ? Nope.
And no amount of stupid smiley will change this simple fact.
And this is juste one of the many issues in Floyd, see here: https://github.com/ananjaser1211/FloydQ_Reports/issues

Dude nobody cares for your PayPal and fingerprint. If it doesn't work out for you, someone prefer the rom to be working on s7. If One ui1000 is gonna come, s7 is gonna run well on it and even you will be the first person to download it. Talking boy,so keep yourself steady and watch it how things go.

Children want the latest version, adults want a fully functional phone, and not having the FP sensor working in 3rd party apps is a deal breaker for a lot of people, it's a pity you can't understand that.

It is known that Android OS is based on a modified version of the Linux Kernel to support mobile phones and tablets and other Android-capable devices, and it is also well-known that when OEMs release a new device, they begin their first state of dropping software support for their previous device.
Custom ROMs are Android ROMs made be either a solo developer, or core developers (and maybe even by you) out of passion, and thus completely free, they can extend it with as many features as the device can handle, in addition to the latest OS and security patches.
Sometimes, a developer might face a hard time trying to fix a bug, it might take months to fix, he might even decide to live with it, why? because he's doing this out of passion! Here on XDA, ROMs are posted along with it's sources, if you think the developer is a low-level programmer, you're free to show us your abilities.
Custom ROMs were not meant to be ultra-stable out-of-the-box, they were meant to witness it's own development.
I want one ui 3 too because of it's ui design
Look be happy with floyd Q no one is going to be spending time trying to port and then fix a one ui 3.0 base for the S7 devs like ananjaser are not going to try to fix one ui 3.0 alot of work would be needed anyway
