Hi all! Just bought Samsung S7 edge (SM-G935F) and I am quite happy with stock Nougat rom.
BUT, after I watched some videos about S8 port, I am considering to flash my device.
The only thing that worries me is bugs. As I understand most of this ports do have some bugs.
Can you please tell me what do you think, which port is the most stable one?
Or do you think that I should stick with stock Samsung rom?
Any advice is appreciated

I've tried the batman 1.1.1 s8 port rom on my s7 edge and I have the same model as you. The rom is great without any bugs. You can flash a sticker fix and secure folder fix zip file which will make more or less all the function that work on the s8 work on your s7 edge. For obvious reasons iris scanner won't work. Face detection and fingerprint works though.
Try it you won't regret it. Got my s7 edge 3 weeks ago and now I wouldn't even consider to go back to stock Nougat. I will only go stock when android O 8.0 arrives.
You can find the batman rom here. From what I have read in the forums the batman rom is king of s8 ported roms.

Thanks very much for your help. This is exactly what I needed. Sorry for a bit delayed answer, I was setting up Batman rom and my device..
So, yeah. It seems that this is one of the best roms for S7 Edge. It's working great for now, but it does have some minor bugs. Everything is pretty fast, very similar to stock Nougat, except the app drawer. When I'm opening a drawer it is a little bit laggy, but it's not a big deal.
And I did notice that battery life is affected, but that's normal for custom roms. Everything else works perfectly.
Once again, thanks very much for your help.
Cheers

Hi there, I have noticed that the A5 and A7 variants have gotten quite a bit of development in terms of custom ROMs. Also, both seem to be going to get the Marshmallow update. I would like to ask if anyone can get me up to speed in terms of the development on this phone? Thanks in advance.
There doesn't seem to be anyone interested in developing ROMs for this phone. Unfortunately, I posses no knowledge of making ROMs, otherwise, I would certainly made attempts by now.
I am willing to help as much as I can if anyone wants to develop any ROM for the device.
Custom ROMs should still be developed even if our device doesn't get Marshmallow. 5.0.2 AOSP is great and much better than touchwiz. If ROMs can be made for A5, I don't see why should there be problems with A3?
Maybe we can start off by porting an A5 aosp ROM into A3.
A3 is getting 6.0" but some custom roms would be nice support seems scares shame really . Anyone no if cf-auto root works 5.0.2 yet all seem to point 4.4.4

If you want to make an A3 build, you can use A5 Device Tree but you will need to adapt it, screen resolution, RAM, kernel, and blobs are different than A5's ones.
Maybe I can build CM or AOSP for A3, but I don't have the device and testers for it.
If you need proprietary files for A3 tell me, thanks!

Or if you can explain to me how to build from source I can try myself, I have BuilduntuVM installed on my VirtualBox, so it's ready to compile.

A7 isn't getting a custom ROM also. (SS-A700F that is) There is no Device tree. Otherwise i'd build something. But A3 is not alone on this unfortunately.

aj s7 rom it is great
Phoenix ROM is my favourite go to ROM for my s7. I don't want to switch a rom however, there is no way for me to use volte on it. I have tried *#4636#*#* with no luck. Installed Apps that could do it manually still with no luck. Since I am a novice and cannot reply directly to tamirdas post, can someone please ask him to make an easy volte patch? Or if there's any other way I can do it, that would be nice. Furthermore, the wideselfie on the camera app in version 2 of phoenix doesn't work. Thanks
Hi, anyone knows if there is any rom with Mirror link working?
Mirror link is not screen Mirror to the TV. It is the connection to the car MP5 with the USB and you can manage your phone with the car touch screen.
If It doesn't work now but anyone knows if nearly It will be implemented in any rom please say me in which one.
Thanks and regards.
I'm looking into this as well, I've been wanting to install a custom rom such as @Ivan_Meler LOS Rom, but it has pushed my phone to a "Phone is not compatible" reading on the headunit.
Little back story:
I have a Samsung Gal. S7 and a Honda Civic 2015 and I've been able to do Mirrorlink when it was working on a completely stock rom. Only problem was I was trying to mirrorlink the full phone screen and not have to use the Samsung Car mode, Rockscout, etc. I've tried every trick in the book even one which required the phone to be rooted. (AAUnlock and AAMirror) I used SuperSU, whick I should now look into trying Magisk, and see if that makes any difference.
What I've noticed is that once the phone is rooted, even on a stock rom, the Head Unit in my car switches to "Phone is not compatible". Again, I rooted it with SuperSU. I've been able to locate a S7 Stock Rom which I'll go back to and see if I can get that working again. Once that's established, I'll try with Magisk, and see if there's any difference.
So far with every rom I've tried including LOS (most Roms are based from LOS), the phone hasnt worked in mirrorlink. I'm hoping that @Ivan_Meler makes an update that allows it, as it seems his is the only ROM that gets updated on a frequent basis. I'm hoping that this (along with other issues) gets resolved on the Rom and this can become my daily driver.
Hello
Did you manage to make work your S7 mirrorlink with a rooted rom ?
Thanks

If you want to use these old roms, make sure you change the thermals. I highly recommend Jabashque 6, the links are on my thermals thread.
As good as that version of Omni is, Darkobas himself said that longterm use will kill dramatically hurt longterm battery life.
You could use the compatible Blackscreen with the Jabashque thermals and your experience will be perfect.
BY the way, Oreo and Pie Roms are awesome. If you try Pie tryout Lineage 16 its awesome!
Thanks
i want at least oreo, i tried Omni but Mirrorscreen does not work
Hi guys, I am the owner of a Galaxy S7Edge G935F.
At the moment, I installed Android 8.0, I wanted to switch to 9.0.
The phone I use for work, I saw that there are many versions of ROM around, I would like to have a suggestion on a stable version (already extensively tested) and that does not create strange problems for me.
Do you have advice?
Thanks !

Black diamond note 8 if you want oneui.
If you want android 10 use Los17 beta. Remember it's a beta so bugs are there. Stable release should be soon though
