How to flash it on L21C432B160 stock ?

No rooted, no bootloader opened ...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] datder:
I saw the unlocked firmware floating around the forums that require Odin to flash. I currently have Verizon and was wondering if flashing the firmware would trip knox and remove features such as Samsung Pay and Secure folder.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] RHUDEBWOI:
This is a fair question and I'm inclined to say yes. I will tyr thim myself to find out as I picked up my Locked Note 8 today and in the same postion as you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] guaneet:
no it will not. confirmed working on the unlocked firmware and tmob firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GallardosEggrollShop:
Yup, I flashed it and it did not trip Knox. Was on Stock AT&T then went to Unlocked firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] jellybear456:
What are the benefits of having the unlocked firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Oat23:
That is awesome to know we have the option. And I assume if you ever go back to flashing the carrier firmware it also wouldn't trip Knox?

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------

I think the benefit would be if the carrier doesn't release timely updated but Samsung releases it for the unlocked device. Or to get rid of bloatware preinstalled by carriers.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] guaneet:
Correct. You must use a custom odin version to flash the unlocked version and the regular/latest odin to flash the carrier version.

And no it will not trip knox period.

---------- Post added at 07:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 PM ----------

A bloatfree stock Samsung rom. So no tmob/att/Verizon apps, unlimited hotspot, a few other things too but depending on the carrier you might not have voLTE , Wi-Fi calling, RCS, 4x4 mini, 256qam.

I stuck with the stock carrier rom because everything just works.

Updates are usually quicker with a carrier rom, but lately Samsung is releasing unlocked updates within a week after carrier
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GallardosEggrollShop:
I've been using the unlocked firmware for a few days and it's been great. The bloatware took up at least a few gigs of space and I got those back with the unlocked. I also feel my battery life is better but could just be a placebo effect. Regardless I'm glad I did it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Jammol:
I may flash it. Although, I do have Xfinity Mobile, and I was shocked that nothing Comcast came on the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Demonface.24:
I've been using the unlocked firmware since I've got the phone and it's been fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BlueFox721:
What is the product code for xfinity? For instance, Sprint is SPR, T-Mobile is TMB...is xfinity CCT?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Jammol:
How would I get that info for you? Under About Phone?

Edit: I checked under about phone->carrier softver: CCT.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Nikon5400:
If you flash xfinity to unlocked, do you get all bands working for carriers like tmobile?

thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] :
Hello,

I have flashed unlocked firmware to network unlocked T-Mobile Note 8s without tripping Knox yet.

I have also flashed specific CSCs to T-Mobile Note 8s without issue.

In each instance I used the Prince Comsy version of Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] jakeman19751023:
So if i don't care about Samsung pay do I care of Knox is tripped? I just want AOSP on this stupid note 88
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Adiwilko76:
As long as your phone is unlocked meaning it takes any sim card then flashing say BTU firmware which is Samsung own international unlocked version then it will be fine and Knox will not be triggered as it's stock firmware. But big thing make sure your phone is unlocked and not carrier branded locked to a specific network because I understand it will brick your device. Always allow oem unlocking in developer options.

Where can I find Factory Unlocked Firmware for S10? I want my Sprint S10 to Work just like a factory unlocked S10 that comes if you buy from Samsung.com? Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] BluePhnx:
www.sammobile.com goto firmware section and look for your model (eg. SM-G97*U1).

www.updato.com search for your model.

Download samfirm.exe or the Frija app and odin and use either samfirm.exe or frija to download your firmware. Then use odin to install firmware.

This is a Note 8 forum so look at the s10 forum for a guide to go from SM-G97*U to SM-G97*U1 .
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Kraiven:
Hello,

I'm sure answers to these question must be posted here already but I haven't been able to find them so far.

I have recently acquired a XDA SP (don't know which version) and I have several questions about it, so I hope someone can help:

1. I have some bluetooth stero headphones which I currently use with a Dell Axim. Can I use these with my XDA SP? The bluetooth stack doesn't support them currently, so is there an upgrade I can apply? How?

2. The phone only seems to offer "Dial-up network Networking" as a service; how can I get it to offer file browsing, etc.?

finally, for now

3. Can I upgrade the OS to WM5 (or preferably 6)? How?

thanks in advance.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] rebelde80:
I'm having so much fun flashing custom roms on this phone, but it seems as if the hardware nav keys don't work on any of them. The hardware "back" and "recents" buttons -the ones to the right and left of the physical fingerprint sensor- don't work. I hate using the onscreen navigation keys. Is there a mod I can flash to get the hardware buttons back?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] washoq:
There is no hardware buttons in g5 plus. You can use swipe left and right on fingerprint sensor to achieve what you need. This needs to be enabled in rom settings (most commonly under Gestures).
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] rebelde80:
I rooted my phone as soon as I got it, and don't remember if there are hardware buttons on a stock, unrooted G5 Plus. Are there? If so, do they lose functionality once a custom rom is flashed?

And thank you. I just remapped my fingerprint sensor using "gestures" in custom rom. :D Huge difference.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Karlinski:

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] rebelde80:
I know there are no physical buttons, lol. Perhaps I asked the question wrong. But to the left and right of the fingerprint sensor, aren't there lights for the back and recents function? Is that only in stock rom?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] rebelde80:
I asked the question wrong. I know there aren't hardware buttons for back and recents. But in stock rom, are there lights to the left and right of the fingerprint sensor for these functions? is that only in stock rom?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] redman321:
Nope just the fingerprint sensor. The g5 plus has no sensors to the left or the right of the fingerprint sensor. You can use the same gestures on stock ROM though.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Gh0sTSh4d0w:
So, I've been using full immersive mode for a few days, but i made it full immersive, this includes the launcher, when trying to make only the launcher not immersive, using settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,- com.sec.android.app.launcher (yes, i'm using the stock launcher), i get the following error:

Too many arguments usage: settings [--user | current] get namespace key settings [--user | current] put namespace key value settings [--user | current] delete namespace key settings [--user | current] list namespace.

In short, the argument "com.sec.android.app.laucher" is over the limit.

How can i run this command without getting the error?

I've tried googling it, didn't find an answer.

I can deactivate immersive mode, but i prefer this way.

The Jaybird Freedoms don't seem to like the Note 8. When I make a call, the person on the other end sounds extremely faint. I have to hang up and call a few more times until it's normal. Receiving calls, listening to music or movies....all fine. Only when making calls does it happen. Went to the Jaybird forum and a few other people have the same exact issue with the note 8 be it with the Freedoms or the X3.

Frustrating. I hope Jaybird addresses this. Really like them otherwise.

Sorry if this is "Not a done thing", but really... every second damn thread is petitions, lawsuits, etc and poor me, my phone doesn't open a can of beans as fast as that guys!

XDA, to the best of my knowledge, was filled with intelligent, PRODUCTIVE people, improving their devices, and people being appreciative of what they can do now... but enough is enough now.

If you don't like the device - buy a damn nokia.

Your kidding yourselves - there will be NO CLASS ACTION. Grow up.

Mods - Can these threads be moved into a sub catagory of their own, so that people like me can access information without having to scroll through this rubbish constantly.

At the main Kaiser catagory, there can be:

Kaiser

Kaiser upgrading etc.

Kaiser accessories

Kaiser Waaa Waaa'íng

Ok, pick another name for the category if you must - But please... it really is getting beyond a joke with it all now...

And please, before I get lynched for going against what is all so important to you... You have your threads. I am not going to sit here and retaliate about who is owed what - I don't care.

This post is just a plea to the Mods to consider creating a place for all of these threads as it is apparently a very in demand topic.

If they say no - then so be it - Close this thread, and move on.

If they say yes, then hot damn, I can get back to enjoying this site again...

Ok, I've vented, I feel better. Now it's late here, so I'm off to bed to return tomorrow to see 19000 people have hijacked the thread asking the Mods to ban me...

I hope there is still some intelligence out there... :rolleyes:

Fb401... bless you! :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fisha21:
Whilst I don't agree with the full content of greeek's post, he does have a point.

When I first came to XDA-devs, the main Kaiser forum was full of useful tips, new software and user recommendations. Recently though, the pages are all full of threads about the drivers issue.

Whilst I follow these avidly in the hopes of a solution, they to tend to get in the way of using the forum. This isn't helped by the endless duplication when everyone with a question about the issue starts up a new damn thread, rather than adding to an existing one.

It might actually be a good idea to sub-categorise this, if only so there is a dedicated area where these issues can discussed. You could argue we should separate sub-fora for all discrete issues, but I think the driver issue is a special case due to amount of forum space and time it attracts - not to mention the way it polarises attitudes.

Proponents of the class action might argue it deflects attention and makes it harder for newbies to become aware of the issue or to contribute. However, chances are that if they are here on the site, they might already know - and if not, which update-seeking, mod-hungry XDA owner is going to ignore a forum called Kaiser Drivers (for example)? Not many!

So whilst I support the class action, and any other approach to improving our Kaisers, I also support maintaining the forum as a place where developers are still keen to come and contribute (so we can happily hoover up their efforts!)

Sorry for the long post - seems like reasoned and measured discussion has been replaced by instant flaming and jeering recently and I thought it was worth trying to reintroduce it.

Or, we could just watch the developers leave the site in despair and disgust, and rebrand the site to XDA-Grievances? ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sahoopes:

Surely the mods would agree that there is enough interest and enough disinterest in the drivers issue to warrant separating the issues. This would cut down on screen space wasted on personal attacks.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DarkDvr:
I suggest we also make a subcategory called "Kaiser Waa Waa'ing about Waa Waa'ing", just to cover those who complain about people complaining.

At this moment in time Kaiser driver issue is the biggest and most worrysome issue for the most Kaiser owners on this forum. Don't believe me - look at signature/money fund threads.

So, no wonder forum is filled with people talking about it. That's what the forum is for - people talking about their PPCs. Obviously, when this all gets solved/not solved, there will be something else. There's always some topic that is popular and that will fill up the forum. So what? Don't see a problem. There's PLENTY of other threads not even touching the drivers, it's not like nothing else siezed to exist..

So stop Waa Waa'ing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Steve-C:
What he said. Not going to bother quoting the entire post, but seriously...I came to XDA on the Uni section and helped where I could, and took it by the bucketful. Nowadays, I get bored by page 2 of 4 of the days new posts (set to 100 per page) and just give up looking for posts I might be able to help on because I'm sick of the driver and I'm off type posts.

Seriously, chuck the posts in a sub forum of some sort, and maybe leave one sticky "My Kaiser from rip-off HTC is slow" type thread pointing people to the sub-forum. I'm sure if the driver issues are ever resolved you could post it in the "Wallaby accessories" forum and it would still be all over the world in seconds!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Entropy512:
Yeah, it gets annoying filtering through all those threads about a problem that will likely never get solved due to the Broadcom injunction against Qualcomm. (Which last I read, forbids Qualcomm from even giving support for covered chipsets to their customers - this includes the MSM7200. This may not be the case any more - they are still making Tilts after all...)

HTC is probably contractually bound not to blame Qualcomm in any public response for not providing chipset documentation, and Qualcomm is now legally bound not to provide that documentation (as it would be "support" as defined in the Broadcom patent injunction).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] met3ora:
It's an important issue, and I'm more than willing to fight a battle I'll never win, as long as it makes an impact somehow, and I believe it has. We've gotten coverage on Engadget and other mainstream tech news sites. At very least it SHOULD let HTC know that some of their customers are smart and will fight to get what they've paid for. It's important for users to log into the Kaiser forum and see all of the complaints, as it really gets people looking into their own devices to see if they are experiences these same slow downs as other people are reporting, and if they are, they too can join the fight. I'm not sure how painful it might be for you to just skip over a thread about drivers that will make you hit the next page button a thread earlier, but it's not as ridiculous as you're making it out to be. In fact, right now on Page 1 of the Kaiser forum, I see 5 out of 20 threads about the drivers, one being your own complaint about the complaining. I also included the thread entitled, "Is your Kaiser grusomely slow" which I haven't read, but I assume isn't only about drivers.

The point is, you complaining adds yet another thread, and since you're so concerned with forum real estate, that's only hurting that. The percentage of threads about the drivers just shows anybody who looks, just how serious we are about this issue. Please respect our right to complain about the drivers by merely skipping over the threads and don't read them.
