I use YouTube VANCED and don't have this problem. I used Root install method though (flashing installer ZIP), not Magisk. Try that way maybe it works for you also. Be sure to disable automatic updates for YouTube, in your Google Play Store. Also disable Google app verification security for potentially unsafe apps etc

I'm using camera mod from S9 with emoji's and it works flawlessly, but I don't see option to use LIVE FOCUS.

Is there any option to use it with this mod?

Hello Dr. I have a request as my device sensor stop working after flashing the rom, i kno its a issue with samaung not with the rom but can you please tell me any idea by which i can make my device rotate (force to landscape) using bixby button ? I can remap it to other button modifing generic.kl but i don't kno what to write there to make my device force rotate using bixby.. thanks in advance... hope you will help
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
I doubt there is any key for force rotation. This is only possibly only if there is key for it.

But I have an another idea, there are bixby reaper on play store, check if that have an option for it, if not then look if it have an option to launch selected app. If later option available then I can make a simple app that force rotate to landscape.

I found a workaround on the Reboot System UI crash bug when the screen turns dark and unresponsive. . Hold the Bixby button for 2 sec and let it go wait for the 3 sec timer to finish and UI should be back up. Works all the time for me.

Sorry for my bad English.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
This might be because of unique software on the Note9 and not something specific related this ROM.

EDIT: Reading this post, I see there is a comment that says some USB C to HDMI cables doesn't trigger Dex. That could be the problem you're facing with the cable you're using.

CSC

Dr Ketan, which CSC should one select?

Original: SIN/SIN/XSP, recently upgraded to XSG for RH3. Currently on PDA: N950FXXU4CRH3 CSC: N950FOXM4CRGA

Have checked. CSC is included in ROM.

What selections to be made for OMC? Whether XSP or XSG or SIN?

Rooting first time, noob.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
The CSC is automatically selected by what SIM you have in your phone, after flashing and booting up for the first time. Just keep your SIM in your phone when first booting. When Android starts and says CSC has been changed or something and you need to reboot, just cancel and finish the initial setup, then after that manually reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] powerofone:
thanks, greatly appreciate.

i understand that Dr Ketan's ROM is more for advanced users but feel safer trying it. Could you pls direct me to any guide (somewhere?) for Aroma options on first install? Or anything that spells out the default selections for the "safest" install? except for root choice between magisk vs. su, i dont know what other options are going to show up and what should the selections be... thanks for your time

Will S pen work?

Hi,

I am interested in the s9+ rom for note 8. But my question is if all the note 8 exclusive features like S pen and related apps will work after installing this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ~M☆tis~:
Yes everything will work as expected
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] powerofone:
deleted
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] powerofone:
That's right, all S Pen functions work, including S Pen insert and detach sounds. Dont know why but the scribbling/writing sound is missing, that was a signature Note 8 thing. Thats the only "feature" (if one can say so) absent. No luck even on re-installing the ROM. While it's absence doesn't affect S Pen functionality in any way, but I kind of got used to the sound as I use the S Pen a lot. Any suggestions to have the scribbling sound restored would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
Do you have the setting turned off to play sounds when you insert and remove the S-Pen? That setting includes the writing on the screen sound. If you have that setting enabled, to play the sounds, and the screen writing sound still doesn't work, then I don't know what else it could be.

EDIT: And you should also have system sounds volume turned up. Having that muted will also cause the sounds not to play.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] powerofone:
Nope, except for scribbling sound, the setting works and yes, system sounds are on max.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
Dr. Ketan said a week or two ago that he won't be updating the Note8 again very soon, as he's going to start focusing on the Note9 now. If something critical comes up or a major update to the base, then he might update this ROM again. Short of that, don't expect too much very soon.

You can have a look with a root explorer app in system\media\audio\pensounds. There should be 4 files; smpsdata1/2/3 and smpsdatae1, all .dat files. I'm pretty sure you'll have all those files, in which case, I unfortunately can't provide any further help.

Please help!

How to purge the custom rom/kernel? I reverted to stock but it somehow still showing options of dr.ketan's rom.

1. Checked OEM unlock. Option was on. Flashed through ODIN to revert to stock [PDA N950FXXU4CRH3 CSC N950FOXM4CRGA] I was on before. Passed. First reboot installed like original stock samsung, i.e., no options for installing additional samsung/google apps etc. As expected, everything else worked, except samsung pay and secure folder.

2. Did factory reset from within phone settings

That's when it went wonky.

3. After that, on first boot, the stock samsung options replaced by the custom rom options, like Review Additional Apps to install, with Samsung ones user selectable and Google apps pre-selected.

4. Went through the boot. OEM lock disappeared. Restored it with the date trick.

5. Shut down phone and tried recovery. No recovery! Blank phone. Got into downloader, then recovery, did wipe cache and wipe/formata data, booted to system. Again, the same options to install samsung/google apps. Went to Dev Options, no OEM unlock switch. Tried the date trick, failed. Went to ODIN, re-flashed, Passed.

6. But still on "custom", still asking for additional apps.

7. Went to recovery, succeeded in recovery loading. Selected wipe. Selected load bootloader. But still on "custom". No oem unlock switch either.

What do I do to completely purge the custom rom? While installing it I had selected stock kernel, is that the issue?

If the OEM unlock switch is absent, is the stock software actually being flashed in ODIN as it gives Passed?

No, I didnt a backup before installing custom rom through twrp. Kind of followed the instructions to the letter.

PLEASE HELP!!!

---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 AM ----------

No worries, thanks much! Even flashed stock N8 sounds, no luck..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
Everything is working exactly as it should. I went through the same process you did, for a couple of days on end, as I tried to get stock back and rooting it.

The option to select Samsung apps to install is how the stock firmware works. It's not a remnant from the custom ROM.

The OEM unlock option that goes away is also part of the stock firmware. It will appear after a week, or if you do the date trick, which for me, sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. I ended up being able to flash TWRP, but then couldn't reboot my phone for a week until the option came back again, only this morning.

Basically, everything that is happening is completely normal and how it's supposed to happen after flashing stock again.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] powerofone:
Thanks! Thats a relief to know. Greatly appreciate all your help. I was just short of freaking out.

Atleast Dr Ketan's rom gave me the courage to try root after staying away from for it for the past 4 gen of Notes. I dont know tech, but as an avid user, can sense its done carefully. I think that largely saved my device from completely crashing when I'm more ignorant than one should be, esp with Samsung.

Lesson learnt the hard way.

But there is just that much issue with Samsung - uselessly making it so difficult. They wont go too far with it. Anyway for me it looks more and more likely that this is going to be my Last Note. I wish somebody else comes up with S Pen and does justice to its power-use - which Samsung shunned midway by replacing the S Note & Extras with the shoddy Samsung Note App.

Hi,

Tried this method of installing the latest - black theme - version of Vanced through TWRP after having downloaded it from Magisk.

After many attempts, including moving Youtube from a system app to a user app, just to be able to uninstall it, Vanced is installed, but unfortunately FC when I click on Settings.

Same on original Youtube app after removing the package from Magisk.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] imothep77:
Unbelievable...

I don't know what I did, except preparing for 2 things: try to revert back to an older version of Magisk (16.7 or 16.2) as I saw on other threads some other people having issues with Vanced while upgrading to Magisk latest 17.1. 2nd thing I was preparing for is to sadly move to another ROM.

Wanted to give it a last try, so I closed all my apps, launched Vanced, clicked on Settings.... and was able to change some settings. without FC.... I understand nothing....

EDIT - just rebooted, and launched Vanced again.... back to square one with Vanced Settings issue....

EDIT2 - reverting back to Magisk 16.7 didn't do the trick... I'll try to remove the app and install again

Latest version of N8 rom is based on latest sw update and stable and bug free, if you read comments, no major bug reported by any user. I said I will update with new base RI* when available, currently working on N9 rom but nothing required here.

Hey so anyone else having an issue with moisture being detected in the usb port, even though there's no moisture? Currently on N3 of this Rom.

Happened after I started using the Samsung fast wireless charger. Before That, never got the moisture warning (randomly). No every time I disconnect the usb cable from my phone it "detects" moisture. Only way to solve the issue is unplug the cable, reboot phone and as it turns back on plug the cable back into the phone and it'll boot fine and cable works, the moment I take the cable out of the phone bamb moisture detected. Haven't touched or been around any water or liquids for days/weeks.. emailed Samsung and no replies. Will wipe and flash the updated Rom, see how that goes.

It's the first time I survive without Root.

I wanna Root today and use your great rom.

The thing that stopped me was the thing you write:

- As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Secure folder forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help. (hope in future we can get it working on tripped knox device)

Is it possible that it gonna work one day ?

I know you have fixed it on the note 5 but is it impossible on the note 8 that no chance in the future ?

I wonder about the security folder mostly

Just wonder before I take the next step.
