If you are charging to 100% something is wrong as the eng kernel prohibits this....

And if you are charging to 100% rooted i want a copy of your system and boot imgs.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
If you are charging to 100%, you arent running the factory boot image, and if you arent running the factory boot then you arent rooted and you can't be running the rom. So sorry, no you really arent unless you managed to get it running on a device with an unlocked bootloader.

Its mapped to a different keycode as no non-acessibility apps understand WINK. I map mine through xposed edge and can essentially do whatever i want with it. And can define different actions for single press, long press, double press, and triple press. I can have entirely different commands depending on whether my device is screen on, screen off, on the lock screen, and surely some more that in bid remembering offhand. All without lag inducing and battery draining accessibility options

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
None of the things you mention have anything to do with the rom. Facebook is not even installed so I'm guess you did that yourself or maybe you dirty flashed the rom? The section in the op on dirty flashes explicitly states that you need to reproduce an issue found via dirty flashing on a fresh install before recording it as an issue.

Let me take this opportunity to remind everyone what kind of feedback is actionable, and what to do if you want me to be capable of even trying to reproduce your problem so that i might fix it.

Bugs you encounter need a LOT of debugging info on a device this complex. If logs aren't possible to get, then i absolutely need a way to make it happen myself.

Without one of these things, i can not even begin to imagine what happened or how it could possibly be fixed.

. I really dont want to be one of devs who just ignore unactionable reports or questions, but it gets to be a lot across the devices im supporting.

Thanks!

Oh awesome thanks for letting me know that's helpful.

Well it's not awesome and not as helpful as it shoots a brick sized home in my theory, but it's better than not knowing ?

I guess maybe this weekend I'll try pulling down a tmo rom or something and PCR it and see if I have similar problems

**EDIT*

Did you copy the system.img.ext4 over naked? The tar.md5? zip?

Did you extract it first or load the tar.md5 in FlashFire?

(Did you know you can do that and it will validate the md5?)

If you loaded the md5 in FF and it didn't warn you that it didn't match then it's VERY unlikely that it got corrupted exactly in one of the very small number of md5 collisions inside some 32 billion bits (lol). If you didn't turn my theory should still be disproven if only to make me stop blaming people's hardware ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Goddly:
I know, it's not what I would have wanted. But. Either a multi csc version (if possible) or a flashable zip for each variant might be the only way to properly address this issue.

I extracted the.tar, ff DID DO md5 check, "verifying content" which passed...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Raz12:
Yeah so I'm guessing because of that my phone thinks it's a Verizon phone instead of AT&T. I notice when I send a multimedia message, it wants me to turn on my data. Normally it did it automatically and turns off and the whole double settings thing. Amazing rom, can't wait for the zip. If there ever is one btw, does anyone get that flickering screen when they unlock the phone sometimes? Like it goes dim and won't turn up and everything is laggy until you go back to lock screen then it's normal again?.

Something during flashing changes the pre config. Like I said earlier. When I flashed the rom, pre config is empty, and was set as VZW. until I flashed the csc file.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] smbusse:
So, I am now running PartCyborgRom on VZW and it's fantastic! I had the exact same issues everyone else on VZW (aside from you, PartCyborg) appear to be having. Oddly enough, only one of my USB Ports was functioning with my phone on this laptop, and I can assure everyone it is not USB 3.0.

Despite that, once on the new Rom with Root, none of my messages would send, the device would give me a notification stating I was on Sprints network, and when attempting to change the PreConfig information, it would state at the top, "VZW" but the radio button to select would be blank, and pressing enter would just result in a toast notification stating that it needs to be at least three characters.

At this point, I started from scratch. Encountered the exact same issues, despite encountering different scenarios while flashing it all in the first place (I did all of the initial flashing through Odin by the way). So, I decided to try flashing that CSC file provided from SamPWND in the original thread for the root method using FlashFire. When opening FlashFire and granting root access, hit the plus icon to start a new process and Flash from Zip File. Navigate to the location of the CSC file zip downloaded from the SamPWND O.G. thread; and check the second box which basically states grant write access. Hit that flash button.

Upon completion, the phone rebooted, appeared to factory restart, however I noticed the icons in my status bar aligned with what I remember Verizon's looking like. Upon re-setting the phone for the third time in two hours, I sent a text message out and it was successful immediately. Flashing the new CSC file did have additional side effects. Different apps were placed on, such as "Rom Control", and the duplicate settings have all been removed. This works for me. The rom appears to still be amazin, and I still have root.

If losing the additional settings is an option for those who are still encountering the issues where you cannot text with Verizon, and you want to give this a shot - I'd recommend it.

P.S., PartCyborg, amazing work!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] netlagger:
Alright. Well I will take the dive either tonight or tomorrow. Gonna cross my fingers and see what happens. It's been so long since I have done this lol
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] smbusse:
I assure you. Flashing the CSC Zip File with FlashFire is the easiest part of the process. Just make sure you check the second box, and if you aren't a fan of the back-to-normal settings and additional applications, you can always try from scratch with a different PC/USB Port.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
Hahahahahahahahaha omg I love you you're a genius!

I typed up an entire thing explaining my entire process and why it's not the rom, and in doing so I am 99% certain I figured it out.

Answer me one question and ill confirm:

Did you, and are you 100% certian beyond any doubt of your answer, do a wipe in recovery, specifically AFTER your final and successful samfail attempt, before booting the installs that you kept that have this issue?

I'll explain once I know. PS I didnt realize this either until now so it's totally my fault ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Goddly:
Did I wipe in factory recovery after when? I'm sorry, I've read your post 6 times. I can't make sense of it. Final successful samfail flash? Could you explain this better?

---------- Post added at 02:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 AM ----------

I do what is instructed in op. Flash part 1, reset in recovery, then flash part 2.

Should we be factory resetting before the part 1 flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
You flashed more than one time because you had issues at first, correct? When you flashed the AP part 1 that you are running now, did you factory reset afterwards? Or did you skip it because you had already factory reset on a previous attempt that did not boot, and therefore knew your userdata partition was empty
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Goddly:
Flashed part 1, it boots to recovery, fac reset. Then flash part 2. No service, empty pre config at this point (as per the op)

When it didn't give service. I flashed csc. WITHOUT WIPING OR RESETING....

Should we reset prior to part 1 flash? That what your thinking?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
I am now 99% positive that I know what causes this problem.

The how and why are a bit complicated, so bear with me while I try to explain:

There is a part to CSC initialization besides extracting the multi CSC, but it's not part of the zip, it's part of the recovery. It also does not just get executed when you flash a csc, it runs every time you factory reset in recovery.

The flashing after part 1 part thew me for a loop for a minute, since you are flashing after flashing the system image you ultimately boot with, but you still wind up with an unconfigured system. But I'm pretty sure I know why...

Remember how your device boots to recovery mode after flashing part 2? That is a hack I discovered which if turns out is involved. Inside BL part 2 is a cache.img.ext4. normally it has the CSC zip that recovery installs, but mine is empty. I put it there to format /cache and to easily get to recovery so you can format /data with a factory reset.

Turns out that it was doing more than that. Odin, or the bootloader or something are booting you to recovery every time cache.img gets flashed through odin . This is also necessary to get recovery to trigger CSC install, because it either sets up for factory or it removes it so you have to factory reset again to install. Regardless you hsve to factory reset again, AFTER flashing EVERYTHING for the last time before booting, or you may not boot and/or get service.

[MENTION=335299]Goddy[/MENTION] if you would be willing to flash again I'd love to test my theory sometime soon with your setup since it was regularly failing. That way if this fixes it it should be obvious. Let me know!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] netlagger:
Alright, so far I understand do as OP says and just follow instructions. Should be easy enough. Prayer!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
**EDIT: Sorry few things I forgot:

- CSC data isn't empty when this happens, something is corrupt. Everything installed by the CSC is there in /system/omc

- factory reset in op is and always had been after bl part 2. I didn't know it was keeping this from happening though

- the act of installing a CSC factory resets. It's part of the post zip install stuff in stock recovery. Another clue I missed
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Goddly:
Figured that. .

So flashing part 1 , then part flash part 2

THEN Wipe? Factory reset?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
Yes. Do it without the CSC and see if it is still busted.

Thanks for doing this!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Goddly:
Does flashing part 2 take you to recovery? You have to power phone completely off to get into recovery. Which means I'd have boot up , then shut down in order to do so?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
Yes it does, just like Flashing a stock CSC. Just set auto reboot and you should go straight into recovery. No need to power off or hold any keys. If it doesn't then that's definitely a bug and I will fix
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
Nope. 955u and 955w only

Busybox is already installed, version 1.27. Itz the first thing i install as many mods require it to install.

Is there something no special about this version? From what i can deduce online without actually reading the src on github is that he may have a novel installer, but that is the extent of it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] HACK3DANDR0ID:
Quick Question for you, after the 1st AP File FAILs, the device reads SecureCheckFail : system

And if ODIN , it FAIL (Auth) right after writing systemimg.ext4. Which i believe your directions said to start over at that point. But you didnt say what the device would say if anything after the FAIL.

The device was in that Black Screen Download Screen after something fails.

So i tried the second BL file and ODIN Passed, device rebooted into recovery and i tried factory resetting and wiping cache and the device would either reboot to recovery or the "UNKNOWN" multi-color screen.

I have tried 5 c type to USB cables, 3 USB Ports (1, 2.0 and 2, 3.0). My Note8 did however work fine on my USB 3.0 when i rooted that three times...

Any help would be greatly appreciated, i dont understand what the fukc im missing...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] sallambander:
Got it. I was a bit puzzled because jrummys installed fine. Not sure what you mean by "Is there something no special about this version"
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] partcyborg:
If the process is successful the phone will not say secure check fail aftet the AP flash, it will crash to upload mode. If this does not happen then you will not have written a valid filesystem for /system and therefore will not ve able to boot flashing bl.

If the device reboots into recovery after flashing BL that is a good thing! Provided there are no errors on the screen about failing to mount /system or something about "invalid argument" then follow the rest of the directions and you will be fine.

Recovery is a necessary step as it finishes the csc installation and sets things up for your carrier
