Dafuq you expect asking such question without posting important details like your (1) phone model and(2) ROM/modem/bootloader version your phone was on before you flashed this?!

At times the ignorance and disrespect shown by some @ xda is just beyond reasonable.

Did you bother reading the 1st post?

My S8+ was running [ROM][STABLE][N][7.0][AQK7][01.12.17][SM-G95XF/FD/N] BatMan-Rom V1.5.0] and I had no issues installing latest version of this ROM (ZQL8). It even booted without flashing ZQL8 bootloader and modem. In fact it booted up with AQK7 just fine ;)

Before flashing this, I made a full backup of BatMan-Rom V1.5.0 and restore also worked with no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jimmyvb98:
I have a question. Currently I'm on the 1.2 release as it just worked fine. But I unrooted through SuperSU, otherwise Snapchat wouldn't work. Can I update from 1.2 to 4.0 without a factory reset and if yes, is there a way to hide root so I can use Snapchat?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] marcel112:
For snapchat you can use suhide.

I use the 1.07 version and snap works great with this

Hey, how smooth is the new beta, compared to Batman? Share some thoughts. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] spavian:
The new beta is very smooth , let's see the battery life how is it..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] beelzebu:
Personally havent used batman rom, but it is much better than previous beta, and more fluid than ambasadii 1.8 nougat rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mosec:
Sorry, I thought you were on Batman:) thanks anyway, will give it a try
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jemeljsh:
Hmm. How should I put this, considering that IMO lag will always be part of any Sammy firmware :). IMO, it’s just part of the game you accept and roll with it ;) see detailed explanation bellow.

In short – not smooth at all, since there are lags all over the system, like for instance even on simple stuff like share menu that pops out when hit Share in gallery (its slow and choppy - classic Sammy stuff with choppy animations).

I would rate the smoothness level of Beta 4 at 6.5 out of 10, but then again it must be noted that I am quite picky - I change phones almost as often as socks since I am always on a lookout for that ideal phone (key factors -> performance of the OS, consistency of camera and design of the phone). This year alone I have had 5 different phones -> 3t, op5, ip7+, mate 10 and now s8+, although I already established it long time ago that every phone and OS has its pros and cons and there isn’t the ONE out there!

Probably the only phone I would rate 10/10 smoothness wise is OP3T/OP5, but overall I still think S8+ is in a league of its own – (1) consistent performance of camera comes close only to that of an iPhone camera, (2) nicely skinned android, (3) design of the phone is legit and its no copycat, (4) dpi scalling is made to perfection and (5) its rocking the best screen in business. OP is just fast and smooth, and all in other areas they lose – unoriginal/borrowed/copied design, inconsistent camera performance and OOS looks dull, boring and outdated with no identity whatsoever.

According to my book/standards smoothness level on Batman Rom 1.5 for S8+ is 8 out of 10, since I do see some lagging here and there (Gallery sometimes is super-choppy, Quick reply outro animation lagging when answering from expanded notification panel, Windows for actions like Cut Copy Paste have lags here and there and so on), but as I said before – S8+ PROS are so heavy that they easily outweigh the CONS making S8+ a helluvah device to have even with that lil lag here and there.

Sorry for the long answer, I just did not want to come off as a troll making statements without valid arguments with no credibility whatsoever.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mosec:
[MENTION=4750949]jemeljsh[/MENTION] I don't mind the long post. I asked because I used oreo beta in different roms for a couple of weeks and also wasn't super happy due to lags and bugs. Went back to nougat Ironman rom which is pure perfection compared to previous oreo betas.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jordiz86:
It's possible to keep modem and bootloader from nougat as usual? I remember that someone had problems updating them, is it solved with last firmwares? Thanks a lot :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jemeljsh:
Yes. It was actually stated on the same page (page #62, post #611j you posted your question on :D

---------- Post added at 23:33 ---------- Previous post was at 23:22 ----------

Did you try batman-rom before you went for ironman? If yes, how to they compare ? How is it better over batman-rom? I always thought these note rom ports might have ram management issues on devices with less ram and other issues with differences in hardware..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jordiz86:
Sorry my fault, I've read that post but I jumped at the end of the quite and didn't notice the rest... :D

Next time I will double check, thanks a lot! But anyway, do you know if installing that modem and bootloader can cause problems? Just for curiosity, in some hours will update my phone and have to choose if install that too... I'm afraid because many years ago with my old s3 I messed up the efs folder and it take over 1 day for me to resolve... :D
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mosec:
Yes I had Batman before and was happy with it too. I don't see a noticable difference in performance between Batman and Ironman. Both are very smooth
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Hamid Chikh:
Hi , i just flashed the 4.0 version and i didn't want it to be rooted so i didn't flash SuperSU , now device stuck at boot screen, is SuperSU important for the device to boot up ? and if so then how to flash unrooted firmware ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jemeljsh:
Thanks for suggesting IronMan Rom. Actually I immediately like it more than SuperMan ROM since it allows you to change notification importance levels, meaning I can now have Gmail notifications appear same as Messages/Whatsapp on an unlocked phone - @ level 4 Gmail notifications appear in form of a banner :good: Here's more information regarding the heads up notifications on S8+ -> https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8+/help/app-notifications-power-notifications-t3718318
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] marcel112:
You need to flash supersu after rom zip. OR it wont boot

You can use supersu after to unroot again .

(I think you can boot after that normally ?)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] pramyhoga:
At my last try again few weeks ago, after fully unroot my twrp doesn't revognize internal storage. Haven't tried in latest build.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] reaper000:
Dirty flashed over racerom 3.1.1.

No problems whatsoever.

Using the latest Nougat FW (AQK7) with this Oreo b4 so i can return to Nougat ROMs if i want to. Just wondering if this is true: Nougat ROMs can't run on Oreo firmware, so I would have to flash AQK7 fw if I return to Nougat. Yeah?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] korica:
Has anyone tried to install Magisk? Works on this ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mielech:
Hej,

I'm on Oreo 2.0. Flashed the TWRP firmaware first. Phone has rebooted to system. Tried to flash Oreo 4.0, unsuccessfully with error 7 "No more space left on the device", while having plenty of space, ca. 18 gigs.

Any ideas?

Update:

Can't start the phone. Only odin mode works. The booting ends on Galaxy S8+ powered by android screen and then turns off (only by canceling odin mode, otherwise power button does nothing). Can't enter TWRP either. An advise would be highly appreciated, thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] saurabh.gbp:
Facing exactly the same issue, don't know what to do? Can't even enter the fastboot mode. Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mielech:
Hej,

Since odin still seems to be working, I will try to flash a tar file from samsung via odin. Then simply start the whole process of installing custom rom from scratch. If you have a chance to do it before me, let me know the result :) cheers
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] alienex:
Oops! I'm in trouble :(

Flashed the rom last night, all went well installed, working well!.

Rebooted this morning and I get a red message about FRP locked.

I cannot enter recovery, I cannot boot the phone.

I can get into download mode but as soon as I try flashing recovery with Odin it says about insecure binary (recovery) and fails.

I have tried flashing a CP & BL file in ODIN (Nougat 7) and it worked but made no difference.

Currently downloading firmware which is taking ages.

Any ideas anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] beelzebu:
Just installed firmware, I happens me once in another rom.

just keep official firmware by hand.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] saurabh.gbp:
Hi where do you get the official firmware, sammobile is very slow in download. Please share a fast download link, it'll be a great help.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] beelzebu:
I paid subscription. Downloaded pretty fast
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] saurabh.gbp:
Ok, so I flashed the bootloader from this post using ODIN and to my surprise it rebooted to TWRP and my latest backup was there, so I restored it.

I need to now figure out what I did wrong as I was trying to upgrade from V2 to V4 and error 7 showed up.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] orrorin:
Does anyone have a link to a mirror of the v2.0 ZQKI ROM? I have an HP Lapdock and I've been told the kernel in ZQL8 locks out third-party DeX support.

This may be a stupid question, but can I flash the kernel from ZQKI and use ZQL8 firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mielech:
Apparently, I've got lucky on this one. Being "hard bricked", I connected the phone to original fast charger, nothing happened. Entered odin mode and then pressed odin mode key combo. Phone shut down and screen changed to charging circle. Tried the twrp combo buttons and it got me to TWRP. Restored my backup and I'm game again.

Same question here: how did I get error 7? On OnePlus forum someone mentioned something about chinese TWRP to be required for them to flash newest beta. Is it related?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
There a lot of people here with issues on this new release, has anyone actually had a good result from this new update? Is it the rom itself or is it user error??
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
right, i dirty flashed this rom and as suspected failed With the error 7.... so i did a clean install and i still have the same error 7 so whats the issue is it the rom???
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] krusir:
I have no issue from flash. I came from 2.0. I flash this 4.0. Flash SuperSu. Flash ZQL8 Firmware. Phone automatically reboot after flash firmware. Everything works fine.

BTW, I do feel battery drain more. I usually have around 1% per hour overnight. Last night, it was like 1.5% per hour. Let's see it get more stable in next few days.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] marcel112:
Probably bad download.

Redownload and try again?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
Im currently doing that as we speak lol thanks for the reply bro
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] srdjanLeo:
TWRP wont read my SD. It wasnt a case with 2.0. Though I have TWRP 3.2.1 now. So I had to format data to access it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Blubber120:
Got an issue, if somebody calls me, he isn't able to understand me, my voice is very laggy then.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
Still error 7 with new download, dirty flash, clean flash all 3 still error 7 i really dont understand
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] srdjanLeo:
I fixed it while ago. Flashed latest AQH3 firmware with ODIN, find British BTU CSC ( dont press restart to set up career at the very first boot or CSC will be overwritten!). Flash twrp with odin, Format data, reboot twrp, flash no verity 5.2 zip and then flash Rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] DaReDeViL:
I had this too. Just wipe your system partition and caches before flashing the rom. That's all
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
Ah man..... gotta do that c##p again..why do we need to go to these lengths to just update our firmware it seems as rhough samsung are trying to prevent people modding their devices when it should our choice seeing as we all in different ways renting/leesing or even paying £700+ for these phones that we have... is this what we are going to have to do with the official update??
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] abhy27:
For now best oreo rom...thanks to dev....
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
Just seen this as i posted a reply lol when you say wipe do you mean format or just factory reset as i did a factory reset and still stops and has the error 7 again i went back to renovate ice 0.4 did a dirty flash and it installed with no errors at all

---------- Post added at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 AM ----------

What is error 7 anyway??? What does it mean iv never had ut before
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] DaReDeViL:
I don't mean wiping data or factory reset. Just get into advanced wipe and select system partition.

Error 7 can have multiple causes. The one I had was about failed symlinking ...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jack allen:
Ah right cool i shall try that, thank you i will do that now if fails again i always have a back ready every time lol. Cheers bro
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] CraigUK87:
First off, brilliant rom... rocking with Magisk and have Viper working =) no phone breaking issues so far, bar a slight weird...issue...TWRP isn't showing internal/external....or infact anything when hooked up to the PC.

However, when device is switched on normally, hooked up..... My PC shows everything as it should :/

I've looked around for any other issues but no luck...literally states 0 Mb :/

Possible dm-verity issue? I have the latest dmverity.zip but obviously, I can't use TWRP to flash...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ppelao3k:
what version of VIPER are you using and it works? please share link, thanks.

:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] pramyhoga:
Maybe it because of magisk, some people say that magisk is the reason. If you want to, you can try flash from the beginning and use superSU instead of magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] CraigUK87:
You need to be running latest Magisk version 14, when installing rom for first time..don't flash SuperSU...just flash the Magisk.zip in it's place.

Once you're all rooted and booted, go to the magisk app, update it like it says (probably enable storage permissions in the app settings first)

Once that's all updated...go back to the magisk manager, go to the download tab (Three lines, top left) ...search up Viper, chose Viper4AndroidFX v2.5

Now...download that, flash via modules tab in the magisk manager, read what it tells you, mind... because it'll ask you to use your volume rocker to perform your custom options.

---------- Post added at 01:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 AM ----------

Ahh, I've played around with SuperSU and yeah that works...but then ViperFX is out the window! Crappo....so it's a compromise between having amazing sound that works....and a working TWRP, hmmm...

Trade off of the year. I guess i'll stick with the audio...that's all I root the devices for, custom roms and viperfx xD
