Ar emoji

Hello doc i have problem when i finish to set up ar emoji, the emoji gif i created is only black.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
I believe this may be issue with Pro version. Are you a Tweaks Pro user?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ucevik:
Mine is the same. I was thinking of that was the normal case for N8. I am a pro user.

Tyvm for all your contributions Dr, very much appreciated!

Did cscfeature.xml get decrypted, or how did that get solved, is there any thread about you know of, I am interested
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
Samsung have made some un-encrypted but many csc are still encrypted and only way is use S8 csc which are working pretty well on N8
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] gundal:
Oh wow that's lucky it still will actually accept unencrypted files. I hope they do not change it, its nice to be able to modify them.

One last question, you mentioned this rom allows logging in to websites with biometrics but I still see Samsung pass enabled, and blocked by root detection

Hi doc and thanks for v6.

I've installed ice the V6

My phone started and error FC.

Com.sec.epdg has stopped.

Then I press close and I get only black screen on the phone and nothing response or change.

Tried few restarts and same
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
Could be a CSC. What is your CSC? Have you selected 'oem patch'? Also md5 was correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lightdelegate:
My CSC is ILO.

When I connect to the charger then the lock screen show notification from Android system: finishing Android update...

I'll wait and if nothing change then maybe needed a wipe ?

I gave up cause connecting my Androidware watch force me to wipe it totally and it was a lot of work...

Didn't use OEM patch before.

Shall I ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
If you haven't clean install then yes it could be reason. Try clearing data, if you can manage to open titanium then open it, search for epdg and clear data for both app. if not managable then I may give script to flash.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lightdelegate:
Thanks again.

Impossible to use anything.

Phone is frozen totally.

Using my V30 to write now.

So I guess I must wipe and reinstall the whole rom ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
reboot to recovery - connect device to PC and you will able to copy attache file to device

Flash it from recovery
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lightdelegate:
Ok thanks again.

Done. Phone start with same error FC.

No change. Totally frozen after that
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
Flash attached, if that too doen't work then better clean install
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] moderndaycowboy:
I used N5 with iron kernel 1.2.0 on my note 8.

my observations:

- not faster than stock rom. (weird because the n5 is 2.5gb, stock is 6.1gb)

- heat a little bit more than stock.

- samsung voice recorder FC. (If you download it at the first time of boot)

- tiny stability issues.

- on stock opening time was 17 sec, with n5 it raised up to 26sec.

- a weird problem that some apps suddenly closed up, when you tap it and wait 2 sec in app. (it is not a force close)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
None of these have been reported by single user nor myself observed. Try clean installing ROM and use it on same built in stock kernel for couple of days and review it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lightdelegate:
Thanks doctor.

It didn't work.

I've installed after full wipe. Everything perfect for now.

Restoring my apps now.

I'll report if needed.

[emoji120][emoji120][emoji120][emoji120]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] moderndaycowboy:
I will try later with N6 without any kernel attached.

my purpose is not critisize totally, with or without another kernel, I tried to show weak spots of N5. I think that I might help develoption of this rom.

Still think that Ketan's rom is the best of than all other note 8 roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] zalitoh:
Link N6 ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rocketmail.com:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lightdelegate:
Ok so after a few hours with the rom,

All is just working perfect for now but I have found that somehow the screen turn on itself and search for the iris.

I catch it once on the table and once on my hand.

I'll check on the next few hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
No it shouldn't.

Check tweaks pro download area after 30 min (issue might be related to Pro users only, XDA users don't need fix), I am posting a fix there, flash and report.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ucevik:
Dear Dr Ketan,

I have checked the download area. But, I could not see any new file there. Am I missing something?

Regards.

Today i had a wierd issue, i was using google maps and when i arrived at my destination, i turned off the screen and put the phone to my pocket, when i picked it like 5 10 mins later i didnt have mobile connection, i tried to open apn settings or sim manager it gave fc, i was in turkey and was using tur tur csc, im in austria now and my csc was ato because im using tmobile. When i looked at phone info my csc was something like oxm tur max, i was surprised and have no idea why it changed. Then i flashed csc selection zip to manually set it to ato again, it did change but still didnt have any mobile connection, when i put out sim tray and reinsert it, mobile connection came back and i had internet back. First time having this issue. Might it be because of a setting in latest pro tweaks? I dont have anything else installed that modifies system or requires root (except like youtube vanced, mtweaks etc)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ucevik:

Thanks mate and thanks to all that have helped over those times

A new task I'm trying to accomplish is change my shutdown and boot animations.i replaced 3 qmg files in system/media as well as change them to rw.r.r but still getting original animations??just wondering are there other files somewhere I need to address replace etc?????

Is Samsung Smart Switch a recommended method to move from different devices?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
Since long I haven't used bootanimation but usually

Bootanimation remain in bootloader (param/up_param ) & shutdown & boot animation file remains in system/media. Sometimes there is only qmg and some operators have video files too.

Smart Switch ideal for non rooted device titanium can be used cross device too as far as transferring third party app. TB is fast and convenient method for rooted device. Smart switch I recommend if one have many apps and wanted to backup before rooting device , personally I never used it.

Hi Dr., I apologize for bothering you but I need your help.

Movistar Uruguay recently released the first firmware in Oreo and would like to use the CSC to have VoLTE.

I followed the procedure that you have in the forum to the letter but there is no way, it is always in BRI / BRI / BRI.

I do not know what to do, if I flash the firmware I have all the functionalities but when I install the ROM I lose them.

Could you give me a help with this? I know that is not the reason for the forum, and I know it is very busy but I really enjoy your rom and I am a follower of you from the samsung note 2.

Maybe some comment, or an idea of what I can do to make it work would be useful.

I appreciate what you can do and again I apologize for something that has nothing to do with the rom itself.

Greetings and thanks,

Juan.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Timtown:
How are you flashing this firmware? OTA update? Can you manipulate the file? It must be somewhere on your device, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] gsser:
Is there a way to darken net speed indicator, 3minit clock and battery? When i use chrome or instagram due to statusbar being white, they disappear. I couldnt find a setting to adjust it, i dont want to make them grey
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
You can adjust the color from rom tool - rom control - statusbar mods

But you can't have dark tint like clock /battery (which Auto changes color)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] jbarbat:
How are you?

The firmware was downloaded from sammobile.

What I did was flash with Odin the HOME_CSC as indicated by the procedure on the first page of the forum and follow the steps below.

I have full access to all the files.

Maybe I have done something wrong, if so, I apologize but I do not realize what it is. While I am not an expert, I have some experience in custom roms so if there is anything they think I can do I will do it without problems.

Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] gsser:
Ok thanks, in the future can you add a feature to Rc? In deluxe rc you can change position of wifi, ril battery vibration etc from right to left.

I'm trying to grant permission to write on the external card for an application.

First I tried to edit the file data-system-packages.xml with :

<package name="com.nng.igoprimoisr.javaclient" ...

<perms>

<item name="android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" granted="true" flags="0" />

</perms>

</package>

Then I tried to copy already edited file.

At the opening of the file the modification exists.

After the device is restarted, the modification disappears.

I have SM-N950F/DS with android 7.1.1 stoc ( N950FXXU3BRA8_N950FOXM2BRA1 ) with Dr.Ketan kernel, root with SU.

Also tested with Dr.Ketan ROM + kernel, root with Magisk.

A tip please ...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Timtown:
I'm well. Thank you for asking. I hope you and those important to you are well.

So, you flash Dr. Ketan's ROM first and let it boot-up and get "settled" and then, you flash the CSC .tar with Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] deadlydeath:
hey doc, to me, this is the best ROM for note 8 until now. i love it. few questions:

- when will be a newer version?

- can u (or somebody) recommend me some mods for turn off camera shutter sound and float sms? i'm a super noob
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
New version will be when a new base with significant changes arrive.

The floating SMS I'm not 100% sure about, but an easy way I get rid of camera sounds, if turning down the system volume doesn't help, is to simply delete the audio files associated with the camera, in the media folder in root.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Nebell:
Does this ROM have slow-mo from S9?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Fishpig:
Yes it has the super slo-mo.

Dr Ketan is there anyway to edit the slow mo like with the camera mod n8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ekitiboy:
To turn off camera shutter sound, open Dr Ketan Tweaks, then CSC features & toggle Camera Shutter Sound to off

Reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] deadlydeath:
I finally made it with help from a friend. Now my phone has an option for turning off camera shutter sound and new SMS will float on the screen. I share it here in case someone needs.

1. Click here to download necessary files.

2. Copy to your phone.

3. For camera shutter sound: flash Option Sound Camera.zip via TWRP.

4. For floating SMS: extract these 2 folders (SAirMessage_N.zip and SAirMessageProxy_N.zip) to /system/priv-app. Set 0755 permission for both folders, 0644 for all APK files in those.

5. Delete /system/omc folder

6. Reboot the phone.

Note: I only tested on my phone (N950N) with this ROM (Dr. Ketan ROM) and not sure if this works for others. Test it on your own backup everything before doing anything.

All credit goes to my friend, he showed me everything.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] jbarbat:
Yes sir, just a difference. I am flashing with Odin the HOME_CSC and not the CSC as you say.

In the OMC directory I can not find a UFU directory, I do not know if flashing the HOME might occupy the current directory in which the ROM is being used.

The issue is that if I use Movistar's stock firmware I have VoLTE and WIFICalling, if I go back to Dr. Rom and start working on HOME_CSC I do not have those features.

I take this opportunity to thank you for your answers.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] deadlydeath:
there is a topic "Alice project" or something in which i saw a flashable CSC pack. idk if it contains UFU or not, you can try it.

besides, in a search i made, i found THIS but it seems to be a stock firmware.

if you need the update, go back to stock, then install this ROM again. i'm not sure if it works, LOL.

my phone took 4 hours and $15 to unlock dual SIM feature, so no more stock for me. i just wait for newer versions of this ROM :D:D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] david.lynch:
Tried to restore apps from a Galaxy Note 4 using Smart Switch and Titanium Backup, apps closing, no settings migrated. Any help? Worked on every other device that I've tried before.

Destination device: N950N. Latest 014P

Is expected to have same boot screen from carrier?

After taking a lot of time setting things up, cleaned cache and dalvik on TWRP, now ROM doesn't accept password and I'm unable to complete boot. Edit: after a full power cycle, accepted, and restore also worked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Aar On:
Hi everyone, I realise this is partially off topic but I'm looking for some advice, I haven't owned a Samsung device in years and whilst I am quite impressed with my Note 8 out of the box the itch to make some mods is starting to creep in. I've owned, rooted and used custom ROMs on several Nexus devices and even a Note 2 back in the day but can't remember much about the Samsung method.

I'm using the Exynos version N950F

I'd be interested in root and non root mods

My main gripes with the Note 8 are:

- The wired audio output is terrible, my modded Nexus 6 thrashes it so badly that I keep my Nexus 6 at work for all of my audio needs.

- The single bottom speaker sucks

I use my phone to pay for everything, I don't want to go back to carrying a wallet so I'd rather not have to worry about that not working like i occasionally would when my N6 was my daily driver.

I use Samsung pay and have a Gear S3F but I could happily go back to Google Pay with Magisk. Losing the ability to pay with my phone would suck.

Is there any suggestions you'd make for mods or useful tweaks? What do you love about your Note on this ROM?

My skill level with this stuff is about middle of the road, I'm not a noob with rooting but I'm not an expert either.

Any advice or input for someone getting back into the root / mods world after a year out would be appreciated.

This ROM looks good, the dev seems very skilled and helpful.

Thanks fellas, much obliged.

-A
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] deadlydeath:
powerful mods are root required. if you want to keep SS pay or SS pass, you have to keep the stock firmware and KNOX untouched, probly OEM lock also.

consider search for the apps you need from Google play
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Raviochoudhary:
Dont't root, its not worth it, you will loose, samsung pay, secure folder and also samsung health and even after unrooting and going to stock, you will not get these features back, also your auto update will be broke, so if you go back to stock, each time you will need to install full 3-4gb file again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Aar On:
Thanks guys, I really appreciate that. I do use S Health and Samsung Pay so I'll avoid the root thing.

The main thing I'm really interested in is the Dolby sound mods, that's the only thing I'm disappointed with on the Note 8, the wired audio output is so bad. It sounds like I can get that without root though so that's good. I'll start doing some research here and get familiar with everything.

Looks like it might be time to start making some backups ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Max_Terrible:
Unfortunately the Dolby sound mods also require root. But even if they didn't, it's pointless, anyway. The mods make very little to no difference. It's nothing you'll likely even notice, unless you specifically listen for the difference and constantly switch between the modes to pick up on the differences. It's not worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Aar On:
Thanks Max, I appreciate that. I would have been so happy if the Note 8 had a V30 quad DAC ?

LG... Phones with sudden death :D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dec3169:
I have an odd issue that never happened on my phone before using this rom (which I really like). I use Tasker to automate a lot of settings, including muting all audio except for notifications when I'm at work. It does a great job. I keep my phone connected to my Linux laptop via a USB-C cable at work to both charge and move data to/from my phone and laptop. Unfortunately when someone calls me the phone still rings - Loud - but only if it is connected to my laptop (never if it is disconnected). When I was running the phone with stock firmware it never did that. Note - when it is ringing I can unplug the USB and it still rings. I have manually checked the volume settings when connected and after I disconnect and in both cases the phone shows all volumes but the notifications are at 0/silent/mute.

Has anyone else seen this, or does anyone know why it is doing that or how to stop it? I don't know if it is rom-related or not, but my phone didn't do that on stock.

Thanks
