Thats true but if u format en type yes it will be visuele again in twrp. Nobody knows this.

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 AM ----------

Formating After oreo reboot when u dont see internal storage anymore. Then u can format en type yes in red. Immideiately it will be visible again.

And u can install any kernel 7.1.1 and rom or oreo based.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] proxy_:
So, I experienced some weird issues.

Couple of hours ago I booted into TWRP (for the first time after my final Oreo flash). And since then some weird auto reboots have been happening, mainly after I reboot the system myself, another auto reboot follows a couple of seconds later.

I checked Magisk, and some of the time it says that it's not installed, but now after the last auto reboot it apparently works and everything indicates towards it being installed. Displays as being installed in Magisk Manager as well.

No sure where the culprit lies, but I assume that's it due to TWRP not being fully compatible with Oreo yet. Therefore the occasional fractured boot attempts and immediate followed auto reboots.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
My personal thoughts went in the encryption direction as a reason of problems with /data mount (IMHO it is just not disabled properly in the stock kernel by Magisk / SuperSU). Good to see here people who finally agree with my opinion. I think we need to look deeply in the kernel's dtb

the fix is working but if I flash 5.4 over 5.2 I lose data mounting so I have to make a clean install of 5.4 with data format, flash magisk, flash fix, flash 5.4 and reboot.

right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
It should

Let me know if any issues

Actually you lose access to int syorage, data still will be there

If you dirty flash rom + data fix , data will be still there, just need single time rehoot to system

3. Reboot to twrp

4. mount data or internal sd to copy whatever

5. flash Devbase (do not boot system)

Really? :p I didn't know it would be taken as punishment :p

As changes have been dony only in the installer - I can re-upload CRC1 with installer updated to v5.4 (it will appear today in my repository). It will be available unofficially to avoid questions & confussion like "should I update v5.2 to v5.4?" :) No, it is not necessary to update as long as it is still CRC1 :) I will upload it for testing purposes for all other users who feel punished because of v5.2 @ N950F :)

No matter how much it looks like encryption problem - it is NOT encryption problem (at least not in case of my ROM):

No, it is not normal and I'm interested in fixing this. [MENTION=3718064]fermintm[/MENTION], could you zip and post here content of /efs/imei directory? Don't worry - despite directory name it does no contain IMEI or other sensitive data but only files related to your CSC :)

Is there a person without this "issue"? (see post #239)

With Magisk can't help much, we need to wait for topjohnwu but... let me quote his signature: :(

Since it is "DevBase" - I do not intend to modify the applications and/or framework. It has always been like this and will always be. There are a lot of people who like this ROM just for it (for its purity!). They uses my ROM as a base then install wat they want: Xposed, modules, their favorite MODs, etc..

Of course you will find here some mods but note that all are reversible (CscFeature MODs, build.prop changes, even debloat is reversible here unless you force to delete apps physically in custom options.prop file @ /sdcard)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ilia1985:
Hi I have same issue for a while after flashing your initial rom on n8. I did some reading and the 3rd missing CDC has something to do with sim where also in bootloader it shows blank carrier I'd in red. And throws bunch csc mount errors in stock recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
I do not think it is ROM related issue.

First - if you take a look a bit deeper into my installer - you will see that it initially flashes pure stock, unmodified images which came from original FW. Then installer performs changes on the fly but ONLY in the kernel's ramdisk and files in /system & /system/omc (mainly CscFeature MODs). Carrier ID shown in bootloader is directly related to contents of files placed in /efs/imei directory - that's why I asked for it. Without comparing content of /efs/imei directory came from a device with mentioned issue and came from device without this issue - we can't find a cause

Second - my installer never performs risky operations @ /efs unless you force to change your current CSC.

So let mi ask - have you forced a CSC when you tried this ROM or left default settings (CSC=KCSC)??

Do you remember what exactly solved issue in your case?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] fermintm:
The file atached
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ilia1985:
Yes its definitely not a rom related issue but is related to bl and cp which unless disabled is being flashed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] rixz59:
I used supersu instead and reboots are gone. I think magisk is causing some random reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ilia1985:
Yes its definitely not a rom related issue but is related to bl and cp which unless disabled is being flashed. One of our xceed testers today ended up with corrupted blcp after dirty flashing alexndr 5.2 over weta 6.3. My hunch is either modem cp or bootloader bl are not inncorrectly unmounted after flash. Anyway don't worry about our tester he was able to restore full stock and fix lost imei.

If anything when it comes to csc handling I have to say your way is flawless imho. And I tried both KCSC and XSG which is my default.

As for my issue it's still unsolved and gave up on it as everything works regardless of this error.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
Your /efs/imei content looks as it should, the reason must be somewhere else...

Please try to reflash BL/CP using PC Odin (important: use v3.13 or never! https://dl.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.13.1.zip)

Please do EXACTLY as follow:

1. Power off device completely [important! do not use "reboot to ..." option!]

2. Power on going directly to download mode (Power+Bixby+Vol_down) [important!]

3. Extract zip (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569966320) and load BL/CP packages in Odin

4. Connect phone to PC, flash BL/CP and let it auto-reboot

5. Check if issue is solved or if there is any difference

Above test is slightly related to my answer below. Above way give us guarantee that no one partition is mounted or busy..

EDIT: .. except bootloader, which can't be directly flashed at all. In fact it is only buffered/queued to write for security reasons, and finally verified & phisically flashed after launching a special "reboot fota_bl" task.

You may be right but you wrote the opposite (I hope it is just typo and you meant "not correctly unmounted before flash"):

- if we are flashing content like files/directories - we need to mount necessary partition(s) - it is logical conclusion to everyone

- if we are flashing images to blocks - partition related to block should be always NOT mounted or busy in any other way while flashing

I will check deeply if it is possible that in some cases my installer is trying to flash BL/CP related partitions which are mounted or busy in any other way :good:

Have you tried to flash pure stock with CSC_*.tar.md5 file (not HOME_CSC_*.tar.md5) ?? I know that it is a bit risky (OEM unlock may dissappear for 7 days). I'm just curious if you tried it already as a way to solve this "error" ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ilia1985:
I tried everything possible: flashing stock and home csc, flashing full stock with repartition and nand erase, tried restoring efs in all possible ways including comand prompt. The only conclusion I got to is that for some reason sim related block as you called remains busy or cant be mounted by system.

Work in progress with CRC7 DevBase v5.5 :cool:

I have made a small investigation and now I'm sure that flashing DevBase is not a culprit of this "issue"

My ROM may touch only partitions which are fully recoverable by flashing stock ROM using PC Odin + potentially may touch EFS (if you e.g. forced to change CSC). I have a confirmed report that even flashing pure stock and restoring EFS backup created

before

I released DevBase for N950F did not help for this behaviour, so reason just CAN'T be dependent on this ROM.

Also, since we have not found any negative side effects of not displaying 3rd CSC, I would recommend you just not to worry :good:
