I stand corrected then. I confused it with the note 7. I remember that I was able to root my s7 edge with king root as soon as it came out which clearly makes it an exynos phone. Good catch.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
Welp, some movement. The $1 authorization is gone and my card's been charged for the device, looks like it should be shipping soon!

The best buy order status hasn't changed yet but I will check again in the morning.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dr. Claw:
Correct. The SM-G930W8/935W8 model was Exynos; US and Canada Galaxy phones didn't start uniting until the Note 7 (FCC Link)

Shame that the Note 7 didn't last long enough for the Unlocked firmware to be released

the US model SM-G930U/G935U was Snapdragon with the FCC IDs A3LSMG930US/A3LSMG935US
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
Still no shipping notices?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] greatg:
The notices usually arrive after we receive the goods. That's how Sammy Canada works!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
I'm talking about shipping notices for the note 8. I thought we'd be getting them this morning. I guess the might overnight it tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] greatg:
Yes, shipping notices usually are received after we get the product. That happened last year with the Note 7. I got the phone and 2 days later I got the email telling me the phone had shipped!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
Lol. That never happened for me. What provider does that? Is that directly from Samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] greatg:
Yes was directly from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
yea, no shipping notice for me yet (BestBuy)

but i can no longer modify the shipping address in the order so I presume that means getting ready to ship tonight or tomorrow.

Last time I ordered something from them and it shipped on a thursday night (7pm I got the shipping email, also Canada Post) I got it the next day so I think I'm close enough to the GTA warehouse that if they ship tonight or tomorrow I should be good.

I remember pre-ordering the Note7 from Samsung.ca and Costco that the Samsung.ca order arrived after the release date (2-3 days after if I recall correctly)

Someone on Reddit mentioned Rogers sent them a shipping notice this morning though so it's all up in the air.

(So much for Samsung Canada and their Note7 promo offer)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] uofaboy:
Last year, Tech Data was the distributor but I believe that GlenTel took over the role this year. So this might affect their shipping protocol(s). In previous years, I always received the notice before receiving the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
Just got off the phone with Telus. My phone was already shipped via Canada post and I should get the email notices within a few hours. Not sure how I feel about Canada post but it's still good news overall ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
nice!

still nothing on my end :(

Canadians are also getting their phoneS? I thought date was Sep 15 - btw it's a shame LG didn't even bother posting prices for their V30- Note 8 would be a clear choice for lot of users because iPhone is hilariously expensive and make Note 8 looks like a bargain.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
BestBuy CS says it's being prepared for shipment and should be delivered tomorrow (though the order status on the website hasn't changed) so *fingers crossed*

(Ordered Sept 7)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] fatbuccha:
Hi guys, I ordered today at best buy, I got an email notice that my phone have been shipped. They are using Purolator Ground
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] toastyy:
I just received a notification from samsung.ca that it was shipped. Checked the tracking number and they already attempted a delivery :'(. Purolator. At least I should be able to go pick it up tomorrow!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
Lame for me but awesome for you!

Edit: scratch that. Checked the online order and I have a Canada post tracking number.

Best Buy's site is weird.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] fatbuccha:
That's good. I doubt it will arrive tomorrow though. On BB site, it is stating Sept 19 :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Brava27:
How much did everyone pay for their note 8 straight up?

Sent from my S8+Rooted
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nighthawk29:
Best Buy is ****ing retarded! I ordered one on Tuesday afternoon and I had an option of expedited with Monday delivery or xpress post for $11 with Friday delivery. It's scheduled for Monday so I've been ***** in to them all week.

They suggested try a new order today as it showed it will be sent out xpress post if ordered before 2pm and return the other when it arrives. Tried that and this one also shows Monday.

****ing morons at best buy!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] twistanesh:
Just got a tracking number from Bell. Looks like I'll have it tomorrow!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nighthawk29:
Hmmm, so I called BB again about that second order (second call as the first one they said it's Canada Post) and this time he now says the carrier was switched to Purolator instead of Canada Post so with any luck I'll have mine tomorrow.

Fingers crossed!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] imatts:
Just changed from "Starts shipping September 15th 2017" to "Shipped", got an email from Samsung with a Purolator #!!

I was also given the IMEI of the phone, does this mean I can finish the microSD / wireless pad promo registration? I was told over the phone I just need the IMEI, but do I have to log in on the actual device? So if I'm able to register the promo stuff, how do I do it? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
You don't need to log from the device. You should be good to go with the IMEI. Give it a try. Let us know.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] imatts:
I'm just gonna wait. I didn't think it would be delivered today but I called Purolator and its already on the truck and in my city.

I ordered Sep 8th BTW, so for anyone (like me) who was wondering if a semi "late" order would result in delayed ship, I think we're good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vm007:
Anyone who received the phone in Canada- updated the phone to see 4k-60fps ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] uofaboy:
Boo, Samsung finally sent me an e-mail saying that my "goods were on the way." But it is tracking for arrival on Monday, the 18th. :( What's the point of pre-ordering from Samsung anymore (aside from the bonuses)?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] shanti06:
During the morning coffee run, picked up my pre-order(black) at BB. They didn't call/email me as they said they would. Asked about availability of blue units. No luck.

Now I need an unlock code from Samsung just in case. Wonder how long and how much hassle it takes.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
Sweeeet!

Mine is in my city, expected to be delivered today...

Looking out of the window like: :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
It really feels great in the hand.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] shanti06:
Is there anyone who bought an unlocked unit from BestBuy? Where did you get an unlock code?

BestBuy told me "get from Samsung". Samsung told me " deal with BB"
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nighthawk29:
Oh man that's not what I want to hear. I was hoping Samsung would have made it simple and provided the code right inside the box for all the ones under the unlocked model sku's. Guess not, Samsung has never heard of KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) LOL. I'm waiting for my BB unlocked Note8 to arrive via Purolator (says it's on the truck out for delivery). I don't care who gives us the code but I hate run arounds.

I'll update back once I have my phone and attempt to get my unlock code as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] DLG187:
Canada Post just delivered my phone (and my dbrand skin).

I also heard back from BestBuy regarding the price match:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nighthawk29:
Ya I tried that today as well and was literally about to post the same thing. I'm going to try again later via phone and see if I get a rep that will do it but won't hold my breath lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] shanti06:
Ok. I've got an email "Your BB Samsung Unlock Code" from BB. And I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Why a simple purchase of Samsung phone doesn't go without any drama?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vm007:
I got mine as well. btw -if you have telegram join the group
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nighthawk29:
Nice! So I'll just wait for the email then.

Got my phone just before leaving work... Purolator cutting it close but of course I wouldn't have left until it was delivered LOL. Spigen Neo Flex screen protector is on and now it's charging. Once charged it's PLAY TIME! LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] shanti06:
Noooo. It's getting worse. The email only shows "0", which can't be a code. I went the BB store to get a code. No luck. The guy has no idea how to find one. After 40 min. ,he said "this is the first time for them (selling unlocked phones?). And don't know what to do." He said he would try to resolve and call me. But I don't know. I haven't put a SIM yet but don't want to end up a locked unit.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] mustyrash:
whats the difference between the single sim and dual sim models?

do they receive the updates on the same day?

are there any potential custom rom issues with going for the dual sim?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] shaazzaarr:
I went with the dual sim as I really need that convenience.

When it comes to development, I'm sure it will be the same update schedule. Plus I see no reason why having a dual sim would hinder custom ROM support.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] henri66:
What's the reason that Samsung brings out 2 versions? Is it just a different SIM holder or are there more differences? I normally use 1 SIM. But might get another private one. And thus I also wonder if it will be needing different software when I decide to root it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] henri66:
I have contacted Samsung. Their answer was that there is no hardware or ROM difference.

If this is correct. I expect double SIM bays to be sold soon by other suppliers.

Ordered the double SIM now. And will do the double SIM mod. As it only allows 2 SIM or 1 SIM + SD.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] behemot24:
Since the second SIM slot can be used for microSD card, I don't understand why would anybody want the single SIM model... especially that it looks like the dual-SIM one is cheaper?! Here's an example of both models on the same site:

https://www.techmania.ch/Product/Detail/23991212?parnr=12833993 ==> single SIM = 1075 CHF

https://www.techmania.ch/Product/Detail/23309783?parnr=12833993 ==> dual SIM = 999 CHF
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] leomaxi:
the problem that the brand version is single sim
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] mankvl:
DS have DUOS on the back :D I hate that part, but overall better for reselling and usage if you end up needing second SIM slot. I might move from 2 phones to 1 phone soon :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Kalm_Traveler:
The ROM is not entirely identical. In comparing the two I found that the dual SIM model has several libraries that are not present on the single SIM models, in addition to the obvious settings differences to let the phone know how many SIM cards to look for.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] henri66:
Dual SIM model here. But nothing mentioned on the rear.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] copilus:
I can think of at least two reasons they'd release a single SIM version:

1. Most network operators don't like users to have a second SIM from a different operator - it's easier for the user to switch operators

2. Companies have many reasons not to give their employees dual SIM phones. Also, they migh not agree with SD cards in their phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Anonymously_Unknown:
Just curious.

I wonder what Samsung does with the "extra" storage space that the second SIM would have occupied for a single SIM phone?

It can't be all about the SD card slot
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] dafranmo:
Question: I've read that the dual sim is the "international" version, while the single sim is the official UK version, and that some manufacturers refuse to honour warranty claims for international versions of their phones that are often grey far east imports. Does this affect Samsung dual sim phones?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FfsWally:
Problem Fixed

Right. This has rarely happened to me. But just did.

I tried taking a picture with the flash on but all of sudden the phone turns off and doesn't turn back on.

So I had to pop out the battery and reinsert it.

Happened twice.

But now it's working fine again after I cleared the cache and data of the camera app.

I was wondering if it's a software or hardware problem?

*Note: I did recently buy a new battery from a local shop.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsc:
Have you seen other apps' crashes? Especially when executing Setup Wizard?

It may be memory hw problem.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] f1x:
Hi,

I release final solution for the bluetooth calls echo issue. Solution is for the PX5 units. For now it works only with MD725 module.

Donate to me

If you want to use this solution in your custom ROM, please put my "Donate to me" button in a noticeable place.​

Changelog:

All needed files are available in the attachment

!! You have to be rooted in order to use this solution for the bluetooth echo !!​

gocsdk and sdsdk are taken from HA 20170726 rom. If someone of you would have a problem on newer firmware, then we will consider update of binaries.

Short info: libf1xaec.so is a shared library containing implementation of webrtc algorithms with my patches and adjustments for RK3688 SoC. Do not worry - any viruses or other spyware are not included :).
[MTCD Android Head Units General] apollo1976:
I'm sorry and I personally disagree with what was done by XDA moderators, I hope the manufacturer will listen to you.

In any case thank you for all the hard work you have done.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Nomader0:
I also disagree.. I will donate back. The donation is a thank you for all the hard work.

So thank you.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] alda.cerny:
hi,

thank you for the refund, but i sent it to you back, it is for your hard work as write Nomader0, thank you
[MTCD Android Head Units General] syk02jcb@hotmail.com:
Joining the others here in what they say, I will also donate again. - your work is worth it regardless of this isolated fix.

Looking forward to what happens here, and to see what you can achieve with the manufacturers...
[MTCD Android Head Units General] f1x:
We have so many great people here :). Guys, thank you very much for all your messages and donations - I really, really appreciate that :). Now I see that is worth to sitting even 3 months in the car (:D) just to read such good words.

So, there is no time to wait. Please read the first post and enjoy :).
[MTCD Android Head Units General] syk02jcb@hotmail.com:
Great! Is there any precautions in install if I already have one of your earlier fix? (testing the old "C" right now)

Is the old gosdk_orig ok, just rename to _backup? The other "sdk" file in the first fix should be taken back to original?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] f1x:
Nothing special to upgrade from previous solution is needed. Just replace gocsdk from old solution with newer one and follow the README.

Yes, sdsdk can be taken back to original. Name of the gocsdk backup file does not matter - it can be _backup, _orig, etc.

What I observed, Sdsdk* binaries are not executed by Android at all. They are almost the same as gocsdk. The only difference is implementation of the audio pooling.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] clsbuilder:
Hi, I have an xtrons PB7653BAP with the same problem. I tried your solution, but cannot rename or copy in the directory with ES File Explorer. It is read only. How can I change that? Afterwards, how can I set permission codes to 777?

Thanks
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Nomader0:
you have to be root.

after that use root explorer
[MTCD Android Head Units General] clsbuilder:
OK, thanks for that. Stupid question (I'm not used to Android) perhaps but how to get rooted? Do you mean at the reboot (menu) of the radio?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Nomader0:
ok..

1st, is your unit a PX3 or PX5?

there are 2 ways to root

1. install Malaysks ROM which is rooted

2. use tools like kingoroot etc..
[MTCD Android Head Units General] clsbuilder:
OK, I can manage that. About px3 or 5, no clue; where can I find that? Can you help me on that? I cannot post a link (because I am new), but if you search for xtrons PB7653BAP you will find it; It is a 7" HD Digital Octa-Core 64bit 32GB + 2G RAM Android 6.0 Multi Touch Screen Car DVD Player Custom Fit for BMW E53 / X5.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] alda.cerny:
Settings >> About tablet >> Build number - what is at the beginning of the line?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Nomader0:
ok this is a little off-topic.. but here it goes.

99% you unit is PX5. you can go to settings-->about.. and see.. you will also find the word "MTCD" tell me what 2 or 3 letters are next to that... (GS?, MX? KSP?)

this would be you manufacturer..

you will also find the word PX5 somewhere there or PX3..

now if it is PX5 (which probably it is) go to:

https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...lopment/rom-malaysk-roms-mtcd-device-t3598908

and you will find info there on how to install Malaysks ROM.. your unit will be reset. i advise you to install v.2 of the ROM, and not v.3/v.3.5/v4. v2 is the most stable for now.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] apollo1976:
Hi f1x,

Like everyone I renewed my donation too, you really deserve it.

I am among those who have the new Dasaita unit that uses a new Bluetooth module (SD-968 module) (see attached image)

I launched the two commands: `ps | Grep gocsdk` e `ps | Grep sdsdk`

With the first command (`ps | grep gocsdk`) Terminal Emulator does not return any result (see attached image)

With the second command (`ps | grep sdsdk`) Terminal Emulator returns this result (see attached image):

root 1643 1 35768 10552 do_wait 0000000000 S /system/bin/sdsdk968

root 17880 1643 45060 2900 futex_wait 0000000000 S /system/bin/sdsdk968

u0_a84@px5:/ $

Hope this information can help extend the fix to this new Bluetooth module.

Thank you
[MTCD Android Head Units General] f1x:
+ Please check in factory settings what bluetooth module is installed. For now solutions works only for MD725.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Nomader0:
my 2nd unit also has sd968. i will try tonight and post my results.. hope f1x can make it work for that too
