[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis] louforgiveno:
Hey all my fellow T-Mobile users with T-Mobile branded Note 8's ! I'm writing up this guide for folks who (post root) want to "Un-Carrier" their Note 8.

This guide aims to be relatively Noob friendly, it is also hands on....teach a person to fish.....OK that said set aside a little time and follow along.

Note (no pun) ....you will need a root explorer app (I use Root Explorer)

Here we go:

Removing T-Mobile boot screen banner

:

We'll use the "stock image" So navigate with your root explorer to /system/media and

copy the files "bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg"

Then navigate to /system/omc/TMB/res/media and paste (overwrite) the files in there. Done ......Reboot now to see change or move on to other

changes and reboot later.

Removing T-Mobile boot jingle

I've uploaded a "silent" boot jingle....totally silent. For this guide we'll assume you choose this file. Download and copy the PowerOn.ogg to a

location easy to find on phone. Then navigate with your root explorer app to the file you downloaded. Next copy the file then navigate

to /system/omc/res/media/audio/ui and paste/overwrite the file there. Done Enjoy silent boot.

Caller ID and Spam Protection

Using your root explorer Navigate to /system/omc/TMB and find the file "cscfeature.xml" and back it up (can just rename to cscfeature.xml.bak).

Then copy the file cscfeature.xml from this post to that same location and then set the permissions for the file (Long press file tile highlit, then

press 3 dots top right and select permissions) (this is the method in the Root Explorer app to bring up permissions menu) set permissions to 0644 followed by a reboot

and Done, go to phone app press 3 dots top right, go to settings and toggle on the "Caller ID and spam protection" switch. And/or Call Recording

ENJOY probably more to come eventually

*******Remove the ".zip" from the file name of the PowerOn.ogg.zip so it is named PowerOn.ogg

After trying numerous things and searching multiple locations in the system for the "fix" for Spam Calling Features and thanks to [MENTION=2694397]masri1987[/MENTION] it's working now.

So here's the "New" CSCFeature.xml that will allow you to enable [Caller ID and Spam Protection] and [Call Recording] thanks to [MENTION=1586284]mdiaz33685[/MENTION] for the s8 csc file which helped this whole process. Again using a Root Explorer app navigate to /system/omc/TMB and rename your current cscfeature.xml to "cscfeature.xml.bak" then copy this file from its location into the folder (/system/omc/TMB) and set the permissions to 0644 Reboot and enjoy YOUR phone.

MUST BE ROOTED

EDIT 11/28/2017

****I met a guy the other day. He told me he just read 'To kill a mockingbird'.

He then proceeded to tell me it was about a bird hunter taunted by a bird that mocked him. In that moment I knew then he hadn't read it. "I also read Moby ****" he said....."Get out!" I exclaimed.
