Correction.......Sorry

Can we please NOT talk about any s7 things in here? That thread is located in the n8 forum and it may be very confusing if someone suddenly starts talking about the s7..

Please use the S7 thread for that :good:[/QUOTE]

[MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION] Okay excuse me why I said s7 correct to N8 will not happen again .Excellent your Rom N8 v1.1.0......:cool:

ya and it is disabled, im wondering if i can freeze the apk's in tibu without the system going haywire. otherwise i'll just learn to ignore it, otherwise the rom is smooth and no complaints really,

Just the 3minit question i have and the .75x animation in rom control i'm wondering where it's at

---------- Post added at 11:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------

here, do this, backup your efs and baseband from renovate, then restore the efs and baseband from renovate to ironman.

This is what I did -

I love the 5t, and think it's a great phone minus the camera, but i had really bad build quality experiences with the 3t in terms of the screen adhesive not being properly applied and it cost me more in the long run dealing with their customer service and ACER crap service centers in the US than i spent on the Note 8 (approx 725 USD) ....

Thanks for reply I actually dirty flash but I had backup first rebooted oem unlock was still there but after flashing the update Rom it went away. Can you consider in the future not to auto reboot when flash the Rom. Thanks

:confused: IMPORTANT: PLEASE HELP!!! :confused::confused:

Guys, I REALLY need some help.

I liked Batman ROM on my S7 edge and now I want try Ironman on my Note 8.

Although I have been flashing custom recoveries, ROMs and kernels since my Galaxy S2 , I am ashamed to admit that I have already tried to flash TWRP and Ironman about 3 times and each time when I boot the phone I am in Samsung jail again. Tomorrow ( after 28 days) , I´ll have OEM unlock again.

Can anyone *please* send me a guide (as in "the guide for the most stupid newbie in xda" ) on how to flash Iromman correctly on my Note 8 ?

I have done a lot of research and gathered information on various threads and my plan is to reproduce these steps:

1 Download TWRP, verity, magisk or super SU, the rom of your choice that does not hide the OEM unlock toggle

2 Transfer those files to a micro SD card.

3 Remove your sim(s) and insert the micro SD.

4 Go into developer and verify that your OEM switch is visible and in the on position. If it is not visible do not proceed until you have it.

5 Shut down the phone.

6 Boot into downloader by holding vol down/bix/power

7 Open odin and place the TWRP tar in AP

8 Connect the phone

9 Place your mouse curser over the start button on odin but DO NOT start it.

10 Press and hold the vol up/bix/power and do not release them until the entire flash is done and you are in TWRP.

11 While holding thse buttons use a spare finger to press the mouse button which you already placed over start in odin. The flash will go by quickly.

12 You are now in TWRP, swipe right to allow modification.

13 Select wipe.

14 Select format.

15 Type yes.

16 Go back to main menu and select reboot menu.

17 Select REBOOT RECOVERY, do not go to system.

18 When back in TWRP after rebooting recovery select wipe at main menu.

19 Do a factory reset.(= Wipe data, cache, and dalvik)

20 Go back to main menu.

21 Select install.

22. Flash the verity and encryption disabler.

23. Go back to main men.

24. Select wipe.

25 Do a factory reset.(= Wipe data, cache, and dalvik)

26 Go back to main menu.

27 Select install.

28 Choose either magisk or SU to flash and install it.

29 Go back to main menu

30 Select wipe

31 Do a factory reset.

32 At main menu select install and flash your rom IF IT DOES NOT include any lower level flash for the BL, CP etc.

33 Go back to main menu

34 Select wipe.

35 Factory reset. (= Wipe data, cache, and dalvik)

36 Reboot into system. You should be able to connect your wireless network and go through the setup process. Do not reboot until you have completed setup, enabled developer options, verified that you have an OEM unlock switch and that it is on. If it is on you should be able to reboot, go into recovery, etc. You should not flash a CSC, kernal, anything that alters the lower level firmware.

Anyone has a better idea ???

And if this suceeds, how do I flash new BL, MODEM, CSC, Kernels with going back to jail?

****PLEASE HELP !!!!**** ( I can NOT wait 7 more days)

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! :good::good::good::good:

I flashed the latest build. Have previously been on Reno. (which i could reboot the day i flashed it) I set it up and used it all day long. Got home and rebooted... Binary issue. N950F. Default CSC and everything. Going back to my OnePlus for the next 7 days...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ALLDAT:
If you have oem unlock option yes. If you don't then don't reboot.

I have a problem with Stock Camera. I recognized it in v1.0 and also v1.1, both with Full Wipe Installation.

When I press and hold the Shutter Button down, the Camera doesn't create multiple shoots.

I was not sure if this feature exist on Note8, but I tested Dr.Ketans ROM and Burst Mode works fine for the Camera.

Can someone confirm that multiple shoots is not working for stock camera or is it something with my Phone?

Edit:

Both Camera apk's (IronROM 1.1 and Ketan N5) have the same version, but different size.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Tkkg1994:
VoWifi, VoLTE will only work on your carriers csc.. not on any other one!

The csc was updated in this release (to BQK6). It can easily be that samsung removed the oem unlock for more csc files.

There is no auto reboot in aroma, only if you choose to update the bootloader during the installation. It's even written there that the phone will auto reboot...

I'm sorry that I can't give you much informations about this. I'm still reading up on articles and trying to understand how this works after all as I wasn't affected.

Please discuss the oem unlock related topics in the OEM thread. Thank you!

It seems like more and more cscs are added to have the 7 days waiting period. One csc which works till now (even on BQK6 csc) is the AUT csc. Works from day zero (OEM unlock is always there)

Someone just needs to find a way to decrypt those csc files to check which line is related to this...

Hey :)

Burst mode isn't there anymore on the n8 by default. Ketan has for sure modded his camera app, mine however is fully stock, 100% from samsung :good:

So in regards to editing the cscfeature.xml to bring back caller id spam protection and other features missing when choosing DBT unbranded (TMB isn't an option in csc list so), i get garbled text and my ability to edit it is sabotaged, [MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION] plz include the option for "keep your csc" or re-enable these missing features. Thanks

Otherwise does anyone else have any ideas on fixing the garbled text in cscfeature.xml?

I did a look in the manual and it should be available on stock Note8 camera.

The photoseries does not work for me, when I press and hold the shutter button.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ALLDAT:
Thanks sorry missed that reboot when I updated the bootloader hopefully I get it back in 7 days.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Zionator:
I don't get point 10 and 11 nor why you wanna wipe and format so many times.

For point 10 if you're already in download mode then why do point 10 again ?

I didn't do that I just went to download mode and flashed then rebooted into recovery and did the reset then flashed the disabled then wiped and flashed a custom Rom.

OEM is a slap in the face. I can't say much about OEM as I got my phone from Sammy.

As I understand it only people that got their phones from a SIM provider are suffering.

Seems like someone wants to turn android into Apple type of restriction I see it slowly being introduced in each version.

My list goes on but no time to type any more.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Kyrillos:
[MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION], you were right. It was probably corrupted file that created my issues.

Quick question, after restore of google and samsung backup, some apps do not appear in apps list. However if i search in the apps it finds them. E.g. viber, whatsapp. Any suggestion how to fix that?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] [deXter]:
The problem is as soon as you do a factory reset the timer is reset and your bootloader gets locked after the first boot. And if you reboot again within the 7 days and you don't unlock it again you'll run into the unverified binaries issue and get stuck in boot loop. And it's not a good idea to do a dirty flash when coming from another ROM (crashes etc)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] masri1987:
So in my attempt to get a ungarbled cscfeature.xml to edit i flashed [MENTION=4375750]Kalm_Traveler[/MENTION] t-mo csc zip,

Got Forceclose loop of com.sec.epdg and ims settings.

[MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION] do you have any advice in regards to this?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] mahdibassam:
I am in the exact same boat as you. used Renovate since release day to today, i flashed iron rom, booted fine ands et up, then rebooted and got the red error message. now i just flashed stock :( how did you go ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Kalm_Traveler:
which one did you flash? the most current one I've uploaded is 7c, I have not tried it on top of an F-based ROM, but it doesn't overwrite the IMS Settings app, and the epdg stuff is all from an N950F in the first place so that shouldn't have any impact at all on a 950F-based ROM.

You might want to try clearing cache and dalvik cache, but I can't think off the top of my head why it would give any FC to those at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] masri1987:
yeah i flashed 7c, i wiped cache and dalvik same result, so i wiped from scratch reflashed rom and t-mo csc without even setting anything up and fc upon boot of the same -

[MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION] CAn you please NOT hide the oem unlock option from modded settings please?

I flashed rom and then CSC selector and everything went by fine but when i checked oem unlock it wasn't visible but i supposed it was turned on, so i rebooted to enable some xposed modules and got the "can only flash official binaries" and got into jail :c

Seeing the OEM unlock and checking if its active or not would be better to avoid problems IMO

Thanks

Is there any option to move network traffic at the right and not left also any way to double tap navigation bar to sleep
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] sun2sunny:
I got Note 8 and waited the 7 days for OEM Unlock to show. I then immediately Flashed TWRP & Renovate Rom and it was going great with no Binary issues for over 2 months. I then decided to flash IronMan Rom. phone booted successfully after installation. Went through the whole phone setup etc. Installed all my apps back. I then rebooted the phone. Then the Red text 'Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed' message. I then had no other choice but to flash back to stock Rom with Odin and am now in the 7-day jail period.

What should we do Tkkg for skipping this jail...

Please make rom like reno for hassle free jail free installation...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Tkkg1994:
Hey :)

That's not garbled, it's encrypted and there we start getting problems of editing the csc files... As I stated in previous posts we need to find a way to properly decrypt the csc!

I can only repeat myself. The stock camera app IS fully stock and it doesn't feature the burst mode. However it has been brought back by modded camera via zeroprobe mod!

Are they maybe in the hidden apps list? Check it going to: 3dot on launcher, settings, hide apps

Normally on the right side we already have the samsung stock network indicator that's why I'd like to keep the custom one left. Also double tap to statusbar is included, navbar not planned

Since the other rom (renovate) uses the s8 cscfeatures files it also won't have the oem unlock thing to prevent you from rebooting.

I'll try to summarize why it does end up on binary issue after a clean installation. This is important to understand!!

After a fresh installation, your device is like a brandnew device. OEM unlock will be turned off via the csc (depending on which one you are using) while booting your phone. That means after clean installing this device with any rom using full n8 csc files you need to wait 7 days for the OEM unlock to reappear. What does this mean for you?

Since you already installed a custom rom, your device is now of course being tripped (using a custom binary) and can't be rebooted until the switch appears. That will be the same thing on each new installation (clean install) of your device! Means a data wipe = again wait 7 days
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] sun2sunny:
Mean we cant install it ....its very set back

---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

Its mean we cant install it easily we have to wait for 7 days after installation
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] radi8:
Ok, just to be clear.

If I do install a new ROM with a clean installation I shouldn´t boot the phone for the next 7 days. Is this accurate?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Tkkg1994:
You should boot the phone, setup everything and then not reboot the phone until the switch appears
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] masri1987:
thanks for the prompt response [MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION], may i ask why the cscfeature.xml isn't encrypted in renovate or simple rom?

Thanks for being patient with us lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Guitarfreak26:
Love this rom but has anyone worked out how to stop magisk unrooting? The first few days it was fine but now it's losing root every few hours.

Is it related to the oem toggle?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
try disabling SU hide.

edit

i mean magisk hide feature. completely turn it off in magisk settings then reboot. if root is still disabled reflash latest magisk and be sure the hide function is disabled.

had this happen to me on reno ice rom. and that fixed it.

there was also talk to have the busybox ndk module install too in magisk that may or may not also help for some unknow reason. give it a try.

anyways, since being on ironman rom, i have had 0 issues of this kind.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Sojourner353:
Renovate uses S8/S8+ CSC's which are not encrypted.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ALLDAT:
It also resets on dirty flash too it did for me or may be it was because I update the bootloader and modem
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Sojourner353:
Whatever is causing it must be in the booloader because I'm on the N950N and after a fresh install I also am missing the toggle in developer options but rebooting mine whenever doesn't put me in jail for 7 days, am also using CSC's that other users report put them in jail for the 7 days so I don't know if it's CSC related.

Hi all.

Thank you TKkG1994 for the Rom update. I think I may have found a bug but need others to try and see if it happens to them.

I can't seem to be able to create and save a new contact. Which in turn doesn't allow me to save any changes to an existing contact either.

Can I please ask others if you could try it too.

Tried to search the thread but didn't find anything.

Thank you all in advance.

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ----------

Haven't set mine up yet but will let you know if I encounter the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Tkkg1994:
No problem, I'm here to help :)

The below answer is the correct one indee:

No that's not related to the OEM unlock, you may be able to get some help from the magisk threads

I also updated my BL/CP without any issues. But it really looks like the AUT csc is one of the few not having any issues

The OMX multi csc contains many many files, so it can be that yours isn't affected (like my AUT csc)

It works also on lower bootloaders, still it's recommend to update to match the rom

I suggest you to make sure to choose stock settings and check the OEM unlock state after flashing the rom

Maybe you removed too many bloatware? Can you please attach a logcat from this problem?

I just checked your contacts issue and it works fine here, both adding and editing contacts. Have you checked the permissions for the contacts and contacts provider apps?

If they have all required permissions?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] godmode1970:
@ rumz82

I can create new contacts and modify existing one. No problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rumz82:
Thank you for checking bro.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rumz82:
Thanks for your response bro. Just checked permissions and all are allowed.

Any other suggestions? ROM was installed with clean flash. Updated BL and modem via Aroma installer.

Did not restore any system apps via TB.

Anyone able to extract their contacts APK and I can try and replace mine to see if it makes any difference?

But Tkkg1994..... What's your suggestions as you know more than me.

Update: Just checked "Contacts storage" too in the apps list and permissions are allowed too.

Will do a clear cache/data on contacts and will update you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rumz82:
Clear cache/data doesn't solve it :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rumz82:
So I have also tried to boot into safe mode just incase another 3rd part app was affecting it but again, even in safe mode, I can't save/edit contacts.

Don't really want to flash the rom and start all over again :rolleyes:

Any suggestions guys?

[MENTION=5899304]Tkkg1994[/MENTION] I have done a screen recording. Any way I can share it with you ? Tried to upload here but it doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] [deXter]:
Heya, any chance you could take a backup of your /boot and /modem and PIT and upload it somewhere please? Also, which CSC are you using? I want to try flashing those on my F and see if I can't convert it to an N and remove the 7-day jail.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Tkkg1994:
Maybe you can try to update your contacts app in this case with most recent one found on apkmirror :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Sojourner353:
True, true, I'm actually using XSA and have seen some people in Australia having OEM issues with this one, that's the only reason I'm thinking it's in the bootloader.

Have read flashing different bootloader will brick your device before? You sure you want to try this? Pretty big risk.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rumz82:
Thanks bro.

Tried something different. It's amazing what one is happy to do when not wanting to start from scratch again lol.

I uninstalled all root apps which control the performance of the phone i.e root booster, kernel auditor, greenify and spectrum. Along with others such as, servicley and background control.

Didn't work.

I then went into apps and reset all app preferences to factory/default. And guess what? That worked!! It also fixed an issue (which I didn't mention earlier) where I was unable to pair Bluetooth devices as the pairing pop up window would not appear! - Always suspected the issue was in my end.

I highly suspect it was something to do with that "draw over other apps" thing.

Will monitor and even re-install those root apps and see what happens.

Thank you once again for your suggestions.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] [deXter]:
Yes, tbh at this point I'm so frustrated with this device I don't care any more. I've already dropped it once so it's got some scratches, the warranty is void as knox is tripped (so no Secure Folder, no Samsung Pay), there's an ugly carrier logo upon boot that we can't get rid of, plus this annoying OEM unlock issue.. so I'm not really expecting to get much back tbh and I was going to count it as a loss and sell it as spares anyways. So if it bricks for good, good riddance I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Tkkg1994:
Ah well, that's even better! Have fun with your (nearly fresh) device :D

You won't be able to install the backup of his bootloader/modem files. Samsung is too smart to allow this, sorry to tell you. Also the OEM unlock thing is fully a CSC related thing and has nothing to do with the bootloader/modem. So even if you could flash his N-Model files, that won't change anything

It's the XSA csc in that case, try it once with AUT and you'll see the switch will be there immediatelly!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] JeremySS:
Thought I'd report in from jail. I have a FD model from I believe Vietnam originally. Was in jail the first 7 days then got out and haven't been back in since. I've run multiple different ROMS including the IronMan beta for several months now with no problems. Most recently I was on the 1.0.0 version of IronMan and was on there for some time. I always select BTU as the CSC when given the option. I upgraded yesterday to IronMan 1.1.0 and updated the BL and CP through the Aroma installer, did this as a dirty flash. Everything went fine but I was having trouble with a few apps so I rebooted to go to recovery so I could clear cache and got the red letters informing me to go straight to jail and not to pass go. I was convinced this was a CSC issue until yesterday. Something in the BL or Modem upgrade caused me to be eligible for jail because I am absolutely sure I selected BTU as my CSC as I have always done in the past.

I'll break out of jail next Sunday and reflash, just wanted to report in that CSC is not the only driver on jail sentences as I had previously believed.
