Right, Which set have you purchased? Did you buy it from your origin country? I'm suspecting that you have bought it outside of the origin country which is simply referred as region lock, that lockdown certain features particularly call-in and OEM Unlock.

Change the file extension from .md5 to .tar

The name and extension should be like this :

I think just a bit of a mix up :D ,,, v3 is working for me. Just follow the steps OP provided :fingers-crossed: :highfive:

Better check the LG forums first. Their phones are usually even more locked down than Samsung

Clove UK sells the F version and is OEM unlocked apparently.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] meboy:
Clove's prices are too high..

About $150usd more than eBay.

There are NO N950F on ebay... Only FD/S that are not confirmed OEM unlocked.

So now the bug with showing the mouse pointer is fixed?

If so , excellent !!! :D

Will This Work on any N950F model I heard OEM unlocked doesn't work anymore is that true?

Will this be permanent no root for the galaxy note 8

n950U I heard that the equinox root n950F OEM look is not available no more is that true??? Should I Waste my money n950F or wait until a green root method for the note 8 becomes available please tell me what's going on:confused::confused::confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] HurriCaneEB:
For me it worked. I got SM-G950F with CSC=DBT (Germany). My carrier is O2 and the option for OEM-unlock is still there since initial configuration with o2-SIM installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] peacey8:
Is encryption working in this version? In the last version encryption was not working for me. I encrypted my user partition and TWRP did not ask for my decryption password like it should have, so I can't get access to my files. It works fine before encryption of course.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] HurriCaneEB:
European Version 950F with CSC=DBT (germany) does have option for OEM-unlock

sorry--- posted twice
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] $-MONARCH-$:
That's because you got European version, It works in the UK as well.

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 AM ----------

There is root for Exynos, but apparently, the OEM unlock issue is related to region lock, Samsung chooses to disable certain features that are bought outside of origin country. Meaning you will need a sim card from the country where the Galaxy Note 8 is shipped or you'll need to ask your seller to activate the phone with the sim card from origin country.

I do not know about N950U, It's a Snapdragon chip and it's quite difficult to tell if you're getting it. Only matter of time.

True, but the same applies to Samsung. Unfortunately they just changed the rules a little with the N8 without letting us know. I get my N8 on the 28th from Indonesia, the first day they are released here. I'm really hoping they have the OEM option...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] white7561:
So did you preorder or? Anyway. I've seen 2 demo units on malls in Jakarta. And yeah. They have the oem unlock button. Tho . The csc on the demo phone isn't XID . Which is our csc. So idk. Crossing my fingers [emoji16]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] liquidguru:

Only if you used with Indonesian sim. But if someone buys from Indoesnia and use it in Singapore it will never include with OEM Unlock. As I have XME/XME/XME in CSC and it has OEM Unlock in the Developer Options.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] white7561:
Yeah well I bought Indonesian phone to be used here with Indonesian sim. So in theory. It should show the oem unlock

Well for now your safest bet is the korean model SM-N950N

They are available on Ebay.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] apascual89:
This is the SM-N950N I bought on ebay. Ordered on Wednesday and was delivered before 10.30am today (Friday,) to the US. Got the deep sea blue delivered in 2 days. No import fees or extra fees for FedEx. So definitely a good seller. I'll update when I get home soon and pop in my Att Sim.

Update: it has the oem unlock switch and AT&T works out of the box.

It's the KT telecomm variant

Another safest bet is from Clove UK. N950F and OEM Unlock can be done. Got it in two days.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Santal:
JFYI

The OEM unlock option became to appear on devices. So I didn't have one, but today it appeared in the Developer menu (no firmware update or kind of).

On our local forum, we already have information about three or four the same fact. It seems Samsung is turning it on (or it was programmed to turn on after some date, maybe, because we have 22 of Sept as a date of official launch).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Azkan:
Hi all,

I used to root my phone, but since I'm planning to use some secure features (mostly bank related, and I'm currently in Korea), is it possible for me to root and these function still functional?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] xxx42069:
I would have said the same thing yesterday but today I'm not sure this is 100% correct. There's been a small surge of people reporting out of nowhere there oem unlock has become available today, regardless of where they are or where they bought or what version they have. They are floating the theory that for some strange reason Samsung had it on a timer or something to only become available after a certain date.

This is incredibly irritating as I've been without my note for far longer than necessary and jumped through so many hoops and incurred so much unnecessary expense and turmoil to get one with oem unlock. Now it seems it's just popping up for lots of people which means I could have been enjoying my device all this time instead of still waiting for it. It means I could have just kept my original order from eBay which cost $150 less than the one I got from clove. This whole thing has been and continues to be such a ridiculous fiasco.

Is anyone suffer from Theme crashing? I cannot even change my wallpaper after flash TWRP and Magisk.

BTW, my phone has carrier logo on notification bar, how can I get rid of it? Any root app or smt else?

Thanks in advance.

Hi there. I've just followed this guide to install TWRP and SuperSU and all's fine.

1) However I cannot transfer app to /system either with a playstore app or a terminal command.

2) I tried app and command lines to mount system rw but it failed.

3) When I open SuperSU parameters, it says that the root on the phone is "limited" : the application SuperSu cannot installs itself as sys app

Any idea ?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] white7561:
Idk. Why don't u use magisk? It's better tbh
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lepas33:
I just need root to install a sys app, then bring my device back to normal. I dont want to play cat & mouse with Google play protect and magisk (no need to keep it). That's why i wanted to install supersu, move app to /system and then remove supersu.

By the way I used to do it on other devices (i did it for a friend on redmi note 4). You just have to have the three backup files (uninstall super su zip, boot.img from stock rom and no crypt zip if you want to keep twrp active).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Ker~Man:
Regardless, none of that matters if it isn't working. So, simply use Magisk root to accomplish your goal and then remove it, just as you would do with SuperSU in your previous endeavors. Voila! Work smart, not hard, my friend...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lepas33:
I've just installed Magisk and got the same issue. I tried to do the same steps with another PlayStore App called Root Essentials and it works ! In this app mouting and moving to /system works. Weird but nice workaround for everyone.

I agree 100 percent - but I have not seen evidence of a surge or people suddenly having OEM unlock become available. NOt saying what you said isn't true, but just have not seen those posts? WHere did you see them? Would love to ask a few questions to see if there was something that may have triggered it - It seems to be sim card related from what I can tell - and I wondering if it is effecting more than just DUAL SIM Devices - (N950F/DS or if it is also happening on N950F devices? (I have only seen talk about the Dual Sim models - had hoped it was only those - but now I am worried....)???

Today, I have it again while I'm overseas. And it's outta nowhere again it shows as I checked it daily. I didn't do any software update nor do anything... I really dunno what Samsung did.

Btw, those mentioned wait 7 days for the OEM unlock, I can tell you it don't work.

I had my OEM shown on the 2nd day (11 sep). And showing again now. 3 weeks later.
