[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Yeargood:
For now I'll flash a new stock rom Dec security patch thrn wait 7 days for the OEM toggle to pop out first then I'll follow the instructions lol.. Now this current one after I flashed stock rom it's over 14days srill no OEM toggle...I did restart my phones many times.. I don't know if it affected my jail time but yea its still not appearing.. so sad.. So I'm restarting again lol, this time I won't even restart my phone. When I just bought my note 8 i didnt restart and it appeared suddenly after 5-7days so I'm really not sure if restarting affects it..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] laserrazer:
Restart should not affect this OEM thing, your OEM should appear after 7 days, my issue is that when I root with magisk, I can go to system, but after restart, showing only official binaries can be flashed, and I cannot fix this problem and stay with official firmware rom.:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Yeargood:
Your problem is easy to solve, just follow the steps from Dr Ken thread.. Otherwise once oem toggle appears u can follow the same steps and don't restart until u see the toggle.. Or else follow the Dr Ken thread and download his thing lol that'll fix your problem
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] laserrazer:
Do you mean I just need to wait for OEM unlock appear after I root?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Yeargood:
That's what I've read.. Because we both restarted after installing the new rom or root and it happened lol, u follow that thread instructions to be safe.. Not gonna risk it lol.

Do you mean this link with ROOT Note8 (exynos) For OEM issue devices OPTION?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Yeargood:
yup there!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] CommunistPandaX:
That is exactly what happened. I personally have been using the blackmesa script on all the roms I've tried and its worked for me.

Here's something that works well for me

Click install, find your rom zip, after you tap on your rom zip to add it, look for the button that says add more zips. Once you add the blackmesa/dr ketan script to the install list, just let it all install and it should be fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Fen-X:
Don t flash any rom from a supposed dev who isn t one. You can do everything you want. I advise you to flash renovate or dr ketan rom or tkkg rom or roms from real and true devs.;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PlutoDelic:
Go bloody make sense now. I have randomly lost OEM Unlock tick.

The thing is, it came on 7 days after the BQKG OTA, it even made it on with BRA8, and randomly dissappeared today.

Wtf? I hate the fact that i didnt have time for a custom rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] kilayo:
Are you serious. Didn't you check back to see further development. No one is losing oem after black messa scrip. Once i got oem i read and re read on latest developments to make sure no oem lost. And so far my oem button is nicely visible
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PlutoDelic:
The problem is the phone was completely stock, untouched, i had only OEM ticked for 3 months.

EDIT: i looked inside just less then a week a go, and it was there. All i did lately is install a few DeX enhancing apps (Dex Max and Desktop Hub), and found out DeX has a Developer Mode as well that can be enabled. I also got the SmartThings update that has been closing a few times ever since it substituted Samsung Connect. One of them has definitely triggered something, or else there is a 3month limit on this stuff if it remains unused.

EDIT2: Did a shutdown, and now it's back -_-

Thanks to [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION]

Its work like a charm.

But it is still pop up a notification system protection that tell "unauthorised action have been detected"

Can its be disabled?

Thanks before
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Fen-X:
This was already been answered but i don t remember what app it is exactly. You have to uninstall an app called protection agent or something like this. I m sur about the agent word but not sure for the first one. It s a system app. Look for an app which contain the agent word and you can make a search on the thread. The answer is there. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] dr.ketan:
It has nothing to do with OEM patch but happens bcoz of samsung security measures when you root your device. Simply remove/freeze SecurityLogAgent app
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] shouren04:
Disable/freeze or uninstall SecurityLogAgent. Or disable knox completely.

---------- Post added at 12:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 AM ----------

Or if you want to disable that Device Security feature completely, look for this line in your cscfeatures & change the value to true

Ok so This is my situation now: Oem Unlock is enabled, but RMM State says "prenormal". I want to install TWRP. The last week was like this, but when I've tried to install TWRP I had the official binaries error, even if OEM Unlock was turned on. What should I do?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Zayatoshi:
Hi [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] . For those who have problems like what with OEM that does not appear until after 07 days following a new flash.

The detailed method with the flash script N950F_root_OEM_issue_devices.zip to root note 8, corresponds if I understood a modified version of magisk?

1/ It possible to update Magisk when there is new update for this application?

2/ Once rooted Note 8 and OEM present, is it possible to flash a particular CSC without risk of returning in jail?

(For example in France, flash a particular CSC benefiting natively from the CSC operator to benefit from the VOLTE.)

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PlutoDelic:
Need to throw this question here as i have really not been able to keep much up with the developments.

Oreo seems very near, and XEF seems to get the updates first from all the CSC out there. The current CSC i have is lacking a few features i desperately need (VOIP/SIP Client to begin with), so i am thinking of moving completely to that CSC.

Being on MID CSC, i understand that the layout of my phone will move to XEF/XEF/MID, and the SIM i will use will be of MID region. Does OEM Unlock appear on this case?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Androidwizzard:
You'll loose OEM option when you turn to XEF. I am on XEF since weeks and haven't lost my toggle with Oreo update today
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PlutoDelic:
So OEM wont show up at all right? Is that just cause of the region change or due to the SIM not being from the new one?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Fen-X:
I think it s the frp partition wich is corrupted. I live in france, bought a dual note 8 from samsung shop (xef). My oem option was there all the time. I flashed dr ketan rom, reno and ironman rom and my oem was always ther but after i flashed a custom rom that has changed my original xef/xef/xef to vietnam csc vvi/vvi/vvi, my oem disappeared and is back after 7 days only. It doesn t stick althought i m still in france and use my french sim cards.

My knowledge is not big at all and maybe i m wrong.;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PlutoDelic:
That all three options are doable is at least good news for the future. My case is that i havent rooted, OEM is ticked but never actually got out of stock. My worry is if i switch to XEF, i wont ever see OEM show up at all, even after 7 days. I wasnt planning to mess around until Oreo came around.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] dr.ketan:
Recommendation for OEM issue device for oreo update

I know we here most of have itch to get oreo asap, and currently many users using trick to force oreo update by flashing older XEF base with odin and then get FOTA, here one catch is there, As we are not able to fully understand OEM mess, If you flash XEF firmaware, surely you should get oreo update but still there are chances, you will lose OEM unlock option and that put you back in jail. So do this only if you are ready to go to jail otherwise Odin flashable /TWRP flashable oreo should be arise in a couple of days and you can root as I have posted method for OEM affected device. I have already downloaded 7.1 of XEF but yet can't decide to flash and get FOTA and pull oreo from device as my plan can be ruined if I do lose OEM unlock, So probable, will wait till Odin flash file of oreo come out.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Fen-X:
I understand you and aggree with you. As i said i m in XEF/XEF/XEF. I have the oreo ota notification. My oem option will back on sunday at 7 a.m but i m ready to try the oreo update this week end to see if the oem option will magically back. So...if there is a way to extract the update zip from my phone , i can upload it here for those who want to flash it with odin. This should allow to get oreo without waiting for samfire or sammobile. The oreo update is 1.4Gb.

If interested, let me know;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] shouren04:
How did you change xxx/xxx/XEF to xxx/xxx/VVI?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] dr.ketan:
It can't work the way you think.

you can get zip only if your device is rooted and also this zip can work only on matching base. Now if any one have matching base then they directly receive FOTA right?

Another thin you can do is first update to oreo, root your device and then dump all partitions and make a TWRP flashable Oreo ROM. but this is not a cup of tea more everyone. Also if Oreo required Bootloader from oreo base then again it becomes risky to use dumped bootloader. If anything real RISKY in terms of flashing then it is only Bootloader. Even after countless flashing in my life, I always try to avoid flashing BL as much possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SimplyCity:
Guys, have you heard about TWRP problem after that XEFota thing? From my friend's raport with Oreo onboard: latest available TWRP is unusable. Maybe it's oftop, but would like to help him, maybe you could have any advice.

Hi guys.

I am in Xef and I carried out the Oreo update.

Does this update seem to me on my side solved my missing OEM problem since it was available after the first reboot after the flash of the ROM.

It is visible immediately during my multiple reboots
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] white7561:
I think it fix your problem. Your problem is even after 7 days the toggle isn't there right? Like it's stuck right? The update prob fix that
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Zayatoshi:
Yes quite my oem do not appear before 07 days with each flash or OTA update. After the flash Oreo it was visible immediately. I think Oreo is patching up this problem. To be confirmed by other users.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Fen-X:
That s what i thought. I understand well the situation. So...let s wait the flashable zip from sammobile or samfire. In the other hand, there is no oreo custom rom for the moment...the better is to wait;)

You absolutely sure the 3rd csc changed? Cause that won't change by changing csc. It can't be changed like how you described which is why I asked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Fen-X:
Yes i m sure. When i ve flashed the alexega rom, after setting up the phone i ve checked in the about phone and the csc was VVI/VVI/VVI. All the 3 have changed. And all the followed steps i ve described are what i did. now my csc is back to XEF/XEF/XEF. Althought my csc is likevthe very first time, volte setting disappeared like the oem option too. I had this option in the stock rom but after all this story, i can t find this option...maybe my csc is shown as XEF/XEF/XEF and in reality it isn t and in this case i don t know what appened. One thing is sure all the steps are sure and in about phone, it is shown like at origin. And i m sure the 3rd csc has changed.

No you cannot force it to appear quicker, but there is a fix to prevent it from disappearing again once it shows up. If you don't have the toggle then you must wait the 7 days first.

Finally out of jail exactly 7 days, 168 hours it automatically appears, them OEM option. Now I have rooted my phone and installed Dr ketan's Rom and patched it. Its working perfectly now.. Just that when I restart my phone there is a red sentence on top saying kernel is not seandroid enforcing or something..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] force70:
Lol yeah no worries about that one totally normal when your device is modded. Sammy devices have been showing that message for years.

sent from my Pixel 2 XL or Note FE
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] shouren04:
Yup doesn't mean anything except what it says, that the kernel installed is not enforcing like a stock kernel is. Won't cause anything except being annoying and how a non enforcing kernel behaves.

I think there's a way to patch the kernel or something to not give the message though. I'm on a permissive kernel now & don't get that message. I did get it sometimes on my Note 5 depending on which I kernel I used.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] puddingoz:
Nothing to worry about but if you find it annoying,flash Iron kernel followed by magisk and it's gone.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] davidof:
Oem I will never come back. it's a false information that he returns after 7 days. If it were true, everyone would come back. And if it does not come back 7 days, there is nothing to it. the reason is different. And someone has come up with 7 days and everyone believes in it and lives in hope for the next weeks. This is my second phone. I sold the previous one and bought a new one. I had rom renovate 2.3, infiniti tnt and it was ok. I installed dr.ketan rom and oem disappeared. in earlier I had no problem with oem with a second phone. And now I will have to sell a second phone. because oem will not come back.

Hi. On my Note 8 Oreo has definitely solved the problem of the invisible OEM. After my MAJ OTA he was still there, even after several reboots. I reset my phone after an oreo flash via Odin, for a clean installation, and the OEM was still visible to be the first shot. A friend had the same problem as me and Oréo also solved his problem. I also read on other forum several posts that went in this direction.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] davidof:
My phone NO had the OEM issue. Im flasch other roms and no oem issue.

If I knew that the rom would do a problem with me, I would follow the instructions. earlier I had no problems with other roms. It does not change the fact that oem does not come back after 7 days and will not come back.

OEM NOT BACK AFTER CLEAN INSTAL OREO.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] PlutoDelic:
What brings it back and what get's rid of it, especially if you are completely stock during any time of usage, is still a myth.

1. I bought the phone in November, shipped with the initial update AQH9, OEM was not present.

[November]

2. Got the AQI1 OTA literary 10 minutes later, OEM was not present.

[November]

3. A month passed, and OEM was not present.

[December]

4. Got the AQK9 update, a week after, OEM was still not present.

[December]

5. Received BQKG just before New Years eve, to my surprise OEM showed up randomly right after the flash.

[December]

- This was very ironic, as BQKG literary patched a few tricks people were using before. Something noteworthy, i got OEM when the firmwares switched from AXXX to BXXX.

6. Got the BRA8 OTA a month after, OEM was intact.

[January]

7. Flashed XEF Oreo CRC1 build with a complete wipe using CSC (not Home CSC) to trigger a CSC change.

[March]

- Unfortunately i forgot the SIM inside while doing all the procedures. OEM was unfortunately lost. Another noteworthy point, i lost OEM when i switched from a BXXX rom to a CXXX rom.

I made it a half week through with Oreo on the original CSC that i was in Nougat, here's to hoping that i should be here in Monday.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sefrcoko:
You just flashed Oreo so I would wait 7 days if it's not there right away :). 7 days is indeed valid, but other things such as CSC changes seem to have an impact as well and it's hard for anyone to say for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Conito11:
I'm on a big dilemma... according to your information I'm going to explain my case I order to get an advice please.

Well, I bought my phone in December and quickly activate developer mode to get

Oem unlock. Nothing happened so I supposed that I was a lucky one with super locked bootloader. Then I was surprised because I didn't get any update, so I look for my current csc and I discover that is xsg, an Arabic one, but I use my phone on Chile. I keep reading the forum and an possible solution was make a factory reset with local SIM to get Chilean csc but nothing happen, still xsg. Looking on sammobile for updates I discover that there are 3 updates that I never received. Reading an thread some guy told me that he uses his phone on Canada and also has xsg csc but he really received Oreo update. :eek::eek::eek:

I suppose my phone is the problem so what can I do? I was thinking on flash xsg oreo firmware but I don't get the oem unlock option yet, is that an problem? If I flash it could brick the phone? Also I want to change the csc stuff to an Chilean one but my sim is from a virtual operator (provider) and had not a specific csc (entel has his csc, movistar and claro too). It is possible to change the csc stuff to cho or crc (unbranded ones)?

Thanks you guys. My best regards.

Ps. I'm quoting plutodelic because of this:

2. Got the AQI1 OTA literary 10 minutes later, OEM was not present.

[November]

So I will never get the oem stuff because I'm stuck on that firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sinkoo1979:
Try to download the Chilean firmware on Sammobile and installed it using odin 13.1. My Note 8 is originally from the Philippines but they did not get oreo so I installed XSG firmware so I could upgrade to oreo. This is official firmware so will not brick your phone. To change CSC I guess you have clean install the Chilean firmware not using Home CSC. And about the OEM unlock mine does not have yet still waiting for the 7 days. Hope this helps....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Conito11:
So should I flash a 7.1.1 Chilean firmware and wait to the update? Or flash the xsg oreo? (I'm on xsg) and the last: if I want to flash the Chilean one and I'm on xsg, did I need oem first? Or it doesn't matter?

Thanks my friend for you answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sinkoo1979:
it's up to you on what you want to flash. Since you are not getting any OTA updates. Mine does not have OEM unlock before or now so I guess that won't really matter if you flash different country firmware. If you want oreo than flash XSG if not, flash Chilean firmware. This is up to you
