Any visual difference between it and CRBB?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Majin101:
I installed CRBB last night. So far the way I use it has been good so far. Hopefully there's no issue so that I can just stay on this build.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Stevieboy02008:
I've been on it since the day it was out and have 0 problems. That's why I said that I'm sitting this one out for now.

Better running? What happens is I flash Home Csc on top of oreo from my U1 firmware. Would it wipe my phone at all ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] stevedrz:
Am I missing something here? What occurs if Play Store is uncertified? Are there specific apps that won't install, maybe DRM-y stuff?

Well honestly I don't know. It just seems to be a big deal in this thread lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GibMcFragger:
Absolutely none. No difference at all that i can tell. May as well stay on CRBB.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] riveralc:
I've noticed CRC1 syncs fastest than I've ever seen Google settings sync on any Android phone and battery life is definitely a notch above previous build. Also have been noticing little things here and there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GibMcFragger:
Not with CRC1 it won't.

I tried the newer version (9.1.24) and it doesn't show anything. I've had it installed for a few hours now on CRC1, and the "uncertified/certified" option isn't even there. When I was running 9.1.23 before on CRC1, it was showing Uncertified.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] LordGeek:
Rather strange issue since being on 3CRC1 .. now, with each build (leak) .. I always completely wipe/reset before doing and after the update is applied, I do a Factory Reset .. regardless.

I've been on 3CRC1 since it was posted, did my normal resets, once up, removed/disabled various apps (through Setup/Apps) .. for some reason, a day later, three of the apps I removed, reinstalled ! The new Google Pay, Samsung Pay and the Google Music ! So, I uninstalled them again.

This morning .. I wake up to find that the Verizon's Messages+ (which I've never used and always disable) is re-enabled and showing on my phone !

Anyone come across this strangeness ?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] noob4598:
I have been following the version.test links for U1 along with the ATT specific link for U. The U1 build is always the same as U or a build under. But this build for U1 is ahead of the U build and also has a new bootloader number.....0. Which will surely prevent us from downgrading but should mean that the build is stable enough to not have to downgrade. Correct me if I'm wrong but if im not mistaken all carrier builds are based on the U1......so im thinking that this 0AQG3 test build for U1 COULD be the official and U oreo will be based from this. Could they have just renamed 3CRBB to 0AQG3 and removed ATT stuff since all was great with safetynet and playstore and are now working out the carrier specific bugs with the new build. Which could possibly explain why the build went from stable on BB to not so stable on C1. Just my speculation.....

But i would also like to add that most of the time i think to much and most of the time don't know what I'm talking about haha....

Build changed again..

N950U1 version.test

XAA = N950U1UEE0AQG3

ATT = N950U1UEE1AQGI

TMB = N950U1UEU3CRC1

VZW = N950U1UEE1AQGI

SPR = N950U1UEU3CRC1

I've been searching around and havent found much but has anybody had any issues running Substratum on any of these builds? I'm on CRBB and some overlays, like Google (which breaks when I open it) and System (that just plainly doesnt apply), don't work. Anybody have something similar of a problem?

Do you have to enable the hotspot capabilities with AT&T first?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JRPY:
When I try and turn it on, it says I have to call AT&T and activate it. I was hoping there was a work around for it, so I dont have to pay the monthly fee. It worked for me before BRA8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Stevieboy02008:
No way around it if it's not active on the account. It's like like saying that you want to make a call on the phone but your phone is not active. If you don't have the service active no dice man

So to get from CRC1 to CRC2 it's not as easy as getting CRC2 in SD card and applying, right?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaizero:
I think it would be wise for you to:

A. Step away from this until you have access to a computer.

or

B. You receive an OTA update.

You clearly have no idea what you're doing, or what the ramifications of doing things improperly are. I'm not trying to be a jerk, so don't take this the wrong way. I'm just jumping in before something bad happens, and you brick your phone.

***To All Inexperienced Users****

Jump back to some earlier posts and read about the processes involved in sideloading these betas. Poor Venom shouldn't have to explain it over and over, page after page. Nobody here should be holding your hand, as nobody but yourself will be to blame when/if you brick your phone.

Knowledge is Power
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Axellent33:
Well, you did come off like a jerk, so, you totally failed at that.

And I'm not inexperienced. I'm advanced. I've been flashing phones for 10 years. I started with Samsung phones back in the days of the Galaxy Spica and I've been an expert on iPhones since the first back in 2007.

It just so happens that this is the first time I'm doing it to the Note8, my new device, and the first time in years I don't have a computer because I lost everything to the IRS. The process is always slightly different with each new device. I ask precisely because I KNOW the risks and I'm trying to be extra careful.

If you're annoyed, bypass my posts. Nobody else seems to mind .i.

For instance, if you want to download from samsung.firmware.science and choose from CRBB to CRC1, the instructions below say to put the file into the SD card and apply. Doesn't mention a thing about re-flashing BRA8.

Your "simple" question has been answered time and time again, YOU choose to not do the legwork and find the answer. It's incredibly tiring to have you 2 post newbies coming in on the 2500th post expecting to be spoon fed answers.

Flashing for 10 years, eh? Not likely if these are the basic questions you're asking. Read the thread. Then read it again. Then, just for good measure, read it again. Also, if you don't have a computer, you have no business flashing anything, because when you screw up, you can't ODIN your way out of it unless you go to your mom's house and use hers. Fail.

I am on the same boat as you, tried Factory reset and no luck, even did the whole process again, using Odin and then flashing the update..zip and still not working, it hangs when looking to activated and then it gives me an error. With this and the fact the zoom is not working on the camera, I am really thinking on going back to official software.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Looks like I'm going to be rolling back to Nougat. After several days of it running smoothly, the camera started acting up today. Zoom won't work either digital or optical. It won't focus. I haven't had any problems with it at all until today. And it happened at the worst time. I'm at a school assembly and my daughter is getting student of the month.

I've tried force stopping the camera, clearing data and cache, and rebooting the phone. Best I could get was the optical zoom worked once then stopped responding and it still won't focus.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] raneym305:
I'm in the same boat- After two days of use with absolutely no issues, I started noticing significant camera lag yesterday while attempting to film/take photos of my daughter's preschool Christmas program (luckily, I had my wife's S8+ handy). I chalked it up to the fact that I'd dirty flashed my way up to Oreo from unlocked BQK1, but it sounds like it my just be a bug with the build.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Once I got home the zoom and focus randomly started working again. But it is lagging...BAD. I took a test photo across the room in my living room. I hit the button, heard the shutter click sound, and then went to look at the picture. Then realized I got a picture of my feet, because it didn't actually take the photo until about 2 or 3 seconds AFTER the shutter click sound. Very strange.

Crbb and crc1 are the same just different build numbers. Oh and Certified play store is only on crbb. I say jump to it and see for your self. My opinion is people are going to experience different things when they Flash Oreo builds. So what happens to them might not happen to you. So flash and test
