I have no idea he was calling it samfail before I asked him to stop. Idk about you guys but that screenshot looks fuzzy and ancient to me. Like the first sampwnd did with eng system and aqcf combo boot.

The eng kernel does NOT boot on our devices. It gives an error of something like "please install user Firmware" if you flash it. I know this first hand. I also know it's NOT public firmware and hasn't been given out anywhere online.

My guess is it's an old combo boot/kernel as those are labeled as "ENG BOOT AND ROOT" all over the internet before the combo factory firmwares were common. If you search XDA you will find threads where elliwigy is *****ing about the exact same issue of people telling him they have eng boot when it's always combo.

In short, I don't believe a word of it :). Confident enough in that statement that I'll happily eat crow if he has some magic eng boot that works

Hey maybe it charges to 100% and has unlocked bootloader too! I ???

That Version is for 9550 Versions.

That AP comes from that image:Tomato-G9550-QJ8-v5.0-freeODIN(线刷版)

in the complete Tomato are these Files:

Its easy to create Roms for that phone. you can inject Custom System.img in stock AP. You only need to replace them with own System.img.ext4 and only need is to retar it with 7zip. then reflash that with Odin. That method works with 9550 and i bet with 955/950 versions too. I already creating my rom list for 9550 to publish here. These Roms are all from China and the Soul Rom 835 comes with Playstore and prerooted .
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] progro420:
So only works on Chinese variants with unlocked bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
its clearly listed for G9550 not a USA variant..

you wouldnt get the "fuzzy screen" as with original SamPWND in a screenshot lmao.. most likely his upload or something.. screenshots should always look normal..

either way, not for usa variants as op stated

Have you recieved the oreo update yet for your SM-G9550. If so could you do a system img and boot img pull so I can port it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] soulless_div:
please where to get that and how to flash? i cant flash anything to s8+ with HK firmware. it is giving me binary blocked by frp. No oem unlock, bl unlocked with crom already, google account removed, but still cant flash twrp or patched boot or whatever custom.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 012345678:
ok i will help you. do this steps as follow exactly:

1:you need to reflash your HK Firmware , as best this:

https://mega.nz/#!AiByCBaS!u2aTSPKVwg0cCi2GmZ1-2P07P-wuhOj-jaOy-XmxVjc with this you will be able to reenter phone . klick update bootloader and nand erase.

2: Phone will show that there is a security bla bla. just enter your google account and after unlock dont add this account if google ask for it.

3: you need to flash china Bootloader and Recovery binary. Flash this tar in ODIN. klick update bootloader!!!

https://mega.nz/#!sjp3jB7Q!huE9kt1zEhNvr-SyPY8EsYxP0tZVBnY-B3UCY_VXYwo that TAR contains XBL.elf and ABL.elf and Recovery for TWRP

4 : you can enter TWRP and can begin to flash.

5: Keep in MIND: DONT flash HK(TGY) Bootloader. If you would like to flash HK Firmware always flash that ABL.elf XBL.elf Tar over it after a flash from HK FW

https://mega.nz/#!hm5FXDDA!XpAORYztkd89lxrMOT3qrvl0n5bfmLNpy4rXrpswDVs if you do this always, you will never get a green FRP Screen.

[Honor 5X Questions & Answers] CYoung234:
Do any of the current ROMs support moving apps to the SDCard? I am using XenonHD right now on my wifes phone, and it does not support this. I am using the SDCard formatted as external storage, and would prefer to avoid using adopted storage.

I would prefer one of the 7.1.x ROMs if possible. I have looked through the features for a number of them, but do not see it listed. I did not want to clog up the individual threads to ask this question. Thanks.

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] quickstang:
Does anyone know the difference with performance on something with 6GB vs 8GB? Negligible you think?

I remember a side by side of the S8+ with 4GB vs 6GB.

I guess really for double the storage & an extra 2GB of RAM for $60 more, it's almost a no brainer.

However, i'm just trying to get an idea from those of you who know more about RAM in phones than I do to chime in.

I'm also guessing it's normal to bump the RAM every time you bump the storage. At least I am starting to see that in some newer phones, (don't see a 128GB 5T with 6GB) but not all. You don't see the Pixels like that (and still with 4GB).

Seems to be RAM is all over the place & I always thought cost was the factor, but if OP can do 6GB & 8GB it doesn't appear to be that.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] skinnyflirter:
well, in my opinion, 6GB of RAM is more than enough for the average user. but if you're really really looking for performance, pick the 8GB version, obviously.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] x111:
why they even have a model with 6gb/64gb.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Baldilocks:
I've seen a few comparisons of both version of the OnePlus 5. The device with 8GB of RAM was able to keep many more apps in memory (obviously). This led to much fewer app redraws.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] daniel-t:
I chose the 8GB option, because I want this phone to last me 2 years, and I am thinking about what may be needed for Android P and Android Q updates/ROMs in the future
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] the_reckoner1_1:
The 8GB is for "power" users who cycle through a lot of apps

128 GB is for people who have a lot of apps and record a lot of video/need to store a lot of data

This is what the head of OnePlus marketing said in an interview. I don't think the 8GB is meant for future-proofing the phone

As explained in the interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4_zhRWHwk4
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] daniel-t:
I did see that interview. I know the intention is for power users, but it is my personal view that 8GBs will serve me better in the future, than 6GB.

I intend to use the phone for 2 years at least, and so if official updates stop after a year and a bit, I have the option to install a custom rom.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] seanwlk:
i'll go for the 64GB one, i currenlty have the OPO sandstone 64gb, and never handled to fill it. Also i dont really feel like 8gb ram are usefull atm...
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] jvidia:
8GB for me.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] barondebxl:
It's really 64gb vs 128 gb. 6 gb of ram is plenty. 8gb is for bragging rights only.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Baldilocks:
When the two were tested (side-by-side OnePlus 5), the 8GB model, naturally was able to keep many more apps in memory. Don't know if I would consider that bragging rights, but I would consider it better.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] JedixJarf:
8GB is a gimmick, but hey, if you want it, the option is there lol.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] barondebxl:
Of course it's better. But is it that much better? I don't think so. I think the storage difference is more of a difference than the ram.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] quickstang:
I ordered the 8GB 128. Figured the storage was worth the $60 & the 2GB extra RAM was a bonus. Don't know if there will be any noticeable differences, but I don't care that much.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] barondebxl:
Totally agree. For $60 you get double the storage and 2 gb of extra ram, why not. I just think those of us who go 6GB of ram will be just fine.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] KERKEDAGAIN:
I feel the same way..can't wait til it gets here, ordered first thing this morning!

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Jboo:
I went with the 8GB/128GB model because the 4GB/64GB of the S8+ Dual Sim was a deal breaker for me. I currently have 2 Samsung S6's with 64GB storage. I needed all that space to hold all the data imported from the 2 phones and have the dual sim functionality. If the S8+ DS had a 128GB variant, I would've considered purchasing that instead.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] georgiapi:
If like myself you have several play lists, root, rom, keep nandroids and titanium backups, and video its 128GB.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Bradl79:
i went with the 8GB and 128GB b/c I need to compensate for something.... my storage, I run low on storage, also for 2 more GB of RAM and double the Storage for 60.00 is actually inexpensive
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] FridrufHau:
I read a test where they questioned this too, sorry read so much, don't know where it was. But they said that not closing any apps they had around 5gb average and they wouldn't suppose to choose the big version because of the 8gb ram but for the 128gb hard disk.

And if you have your apps closed, you will not have an inch more performance.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] whodisname:
This may not matter for you, but if you want a device with longevity, more RAM is going to help you out a lot.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Wafflepress:
6 GB of RAM is plenty for Android in my opinion. But when it comes to the 5T, it really comes down to whether you need the 128 GB storage over the 64 GB option.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Baldilocks:
But, if you want to keep a lot of apps open and avoid refreshes, the 8GB is logically the better option.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] ClinicalTrack:
Exactly this. It really depends what you want to do with the phone.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] chrisund123:
I fully intend to keep my phone for at least 2 years, probably a bit longer. I know I'll have less issues with having enough RAM in the future if I buy more now, so I plumped for the 8/128GB model.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] daniel4653:
I went with the 64gb because I usually don't keep my phones for more than 6-8 months. Of my phone runs low on memory I simply hook it up to my PC and save the oldest pictures on my external HDD and wipe them from the phone

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] anndrenaline:
I know that the 128gb is worth the "small" top up but where I am, it's not just $60 but it feels like $200 instead. Currency issues. But got the 64gb 6gb that could easily run 10 apps, well enough for me.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] terry_mccann:
I am saving 60€ and bought 6/60....had a Nexus 6 on 32GB before and it suited me with no problems, so why waste money?

Any oreo successor will surely run on 6 GB devices as well...
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] alexiuss:
There's also the battery issue to consider..

"If all else is kept equal it is true that comparing two identical memory modules with the only difference between them being one is a 4GB one and the other is a 3GB one, expect the larger module to use proportionately more power compared to the smaller one.

In actual use however the situation is more complicated and is greatly affected by how the device is used. Devices that spend most of their time idling on standby will experience a greater effect from this than devices in constant use.

When it comes to devices being used heavily then the benefits of additional memory may actually outweigh the additional maintenance power requirement. The additional memory can be exploited to allow the system to use less CPU load to perform tasks via the time-memory tradeoff for example.

Additional memory may also allow the device to have lower page faults and thus spend less CPU time on swapping data back and forth between RAM and Flash memory.

The number of applications running in the background can also have a significant impact, devices with lots of applications running may well be more power efficient with larger amounts of RAM again due to the fact that they can keep all the running applications in memory more easily with less recourse to the flash memory eating up energy expensive CPU time.”

In short, if you're a heavy "power" user that switch between apps and games constantly, more RAM can slightly increase power and CPU efficiency, but if you're not, better stay with the 6GB option.

Good morning boyz, i'm new at the forum and I don't talk a good english, sorry!

I have a problem with the Galaxy J7, the version with code SM-710FN.

When i had Android 6.0.1 the root was working perfectly, now I want to update to Nougat, but this phone from hell doesn't want to know..

I tried to remove the root, replace the original firmware with odin and update via OTA but SuperSU (2.82) leads the bootloop, often the TWRP (updated, 3.1.1-0) says that is failed to mount dir like data or also

I had formatted wipe, cache and data

In some sites i've read about superboot and fastboot but i can't find nothing for my phone.

On Sammobile there is only the indian firmware for my SM-710FN (with Nougat)

I don't have ideas, thanks a lot and sorr

If you have twrp - update will show "error",

If you have rooted 6.0.x - boot(kernel) is modified, system partition only if you did it. Bootloop is quite probable.
