sorry but i dont understand, you wrote CUSTOM x2.

so:

1.flash devbase with encrypt

2. flash phantom kernel

3. boot

4. flash phantom kernel again?

why?

also:

i tested once on clean, if i flash on clean formatted device devbase with encrypt,

and if i then flash phantom kernel - device will no boot - verification failed and endless loop, restoring boot from before flashing kernel does not help, only format data is possible.

Also another question:

when having devbase with phantom unencrypted, flashing devbase with encrypt string will also flash stock kernel back?

Also:

what is the difference between encrypt in file name and in device->settings->encrypt device?

Also:

when does encryption and checksum of boot happens exactly:

while flashing or at first boot with encrypted?

if at firs boot i could flash devbase with encrypt string, flash kernel and boot so keys and hashes of boot partition and all other would be generated for already flashed phantom kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
I'm sorry, my bad :) was thinking about stock kernel at first boot after using encrypt string, so in sum:

1. Flahs DevBase with encrypt

2. Let it boot with STOCK kernel to make sure encryption will be applied without issues

3. Flash a custom kernel

Rest is as I have written before:

"To update kernel - in theory access to data is not mandatory, so you can dirty update the kernel if your /data partition is encrypted already, but please ask in custom kernel's thread to be 100% sure

To update ROM - You can dirty install over previous DevBase - my installer does not need access to /data while updating"

Encryption available in settings usually does not work properly in case or rooted devices with TWRP

Is there any chance of upgrading to the December patch? Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
Thread has been updated

, S5CRK5 DevBase v6.0 (Release Candidate 8, December security patches, changelist 13688770) :cool:

As usual -

you can dirty flash it over previous version

-> DONE, that's all :good: :cool:

(you can find bootloader in my updated repository, but BL update is not mandatory)

Download ROM:

SM-N950F/DS:

v6.0 CHANGELOG (recent changes, comparing to v5.9):

- Introduced logging entire installation process (to devbase_install.log file, placed in /data or /cache in case of encrypted devices). These logs may significantly increase the possibility of my help in case of problems with/after installation

- Major imrovements/bugfixes/optimizations related to Android Pie support (e.g. takes care about special SELinux contexts for /odm content, introduced in Pie)

- Removed SuperSU support. Changed allowed "root" variable value in options.prop to true/false (backward compatible with old options.prop file)

- Removed "skipblcp" option - baseband/modem will be always updated, bootloader need to be flashed separately (update is usually not mandatory)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AOWS:
it's working just fine for me no problem at all
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] PlutoDelic:
Thanks a lot for the update.

So from now on, we update the bootloader manually?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] cogelindo:
If we update the bootloader with Odin can we have problems with the state of rmm? Do we have to flash and go to the recovery and use the rmm fix?

Question

BL_N950FXXS5CRK5,so where is CP?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
No other ideas than remove call recording feature from cscfeature.xml. Note that there is a lot 3rd party Call Recording apps which work well with N8

Yes, but it is optional - ROM will work without issues anyway. If BL update will be really mandatory - Samsung will let us know (phone will not boot at all or will be completely unusable until we update BL).

Too much pain I experienced with Pie bootloader in my S9+ (including RMM/OEM lock) while even Pie ROM works just fine with Oreo BL.

I figured out main causes which lead to lock in case of Pie already, but it's enough for me to re-think things, verify statements & change my mind :)

If you really would like to have always up to date bootloader - additional effort is negligible - you need to flash additional (only 2MB) flashable ZIP, available in my updated repository.

Inside the ROM, most probably in your phone if you flashed ROM already :) please read changelog more carefully :)

No matter, but whenever possible - I would suggest Odin as it is just official way using official BL_*.tar.md5 file from the latest stock ROM. I have never made a mistake with it, but it was always stressful moment when I put BL related files inside v5.9 ROM or BL/CP packages (always checked 2-3 times). TWRP flashable BL ZIPs will still be available in my repository, of course! :cool:

About RMM fix - there is NO NEED to use any additional RMM fix with this ROM, NO MATTER which way you flashed BL.

Side note, as a curiosity - in Pie universal RMM fix just does not exist anymore. The only reliable method is to edit kernel's ramdisk and remove/bypass RMM/FRP related things

i am using this zip file ?

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-YN_7HGWWb9ISDUQJpM8bWEoclP6tu8Y/view?usp=drivesdk

it's gonna ask you during installation what Version You prefer

For me: Volume + and Volume + Again when installing via TWRP

It may take a second to install

or it could take some time doing some 4GB .img file

so just wait for it

here is Screenshot For the Version installed

Can you share the details of your configurations?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AOWS:
Nothing special

i just choosed (volume+ and volume+) during the ZIP installation process

Just flash the ZIP ? and you're good to go

(if you already flashed it, it will uninstall this time then flash ZIP again)

Hello. Can u add multi csc to DB version for 950N? Im using this phone, but i need SER for example and clean install with full wipe. Thx
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] PlutoDelic:
So i decided to do a clean install, throw in my debloat and mods inside, but for some reason, i am stuck on the Google initial Setup, it just crashes and brings me back to accepting the privacy things from samsung. If i skip it through no network connection, i can make it to the homescreen but google play services crash and cant add an account.

Debloat and Mod list always worked. My Mods are simple, just some keylayout and wallpaper stuff, impossible to cause issues, and the debloat is just the usual game. I did change the CSC this time but i really cant see if that can cause any issues.

Any ideas, if it doesnt crash, it just shows a black page, both on the initial setup and if i skip to homepage.

EDIT: NVM, apparently Chrome needs to be there at least the first boot, Play Services need it.

Anyone, by any chance, have issues with Facebook Messenger? It just closes and no crash or error shows up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AOWS:
Yes Me.. when i download it Play Store

Just download it from Aptoide market and it's will work fine
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] PlutoDelic:
Same outcome :(, still closes. It's not a crash or FC, it just closes.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] AOWS:
Yes the same here Just exit the app With no error message

I can't say it's a rom issue Coz if it is then everyone should have it, just maybe it is some how COZ my brother have a note8 with latest firmware update and its working just fine it also changed to the new UI (He is on stock rom no root no anything)

I solve it with installing messenger from Aptoide.

install messenger from Play Store log in to your account and then update it from Aptoide

It also close sometimes but like every 15~30 minutes and sometimes it doesn't close

Don't Try another market Coz i tried many and none of them worked even if download an APK from the internet, Only Aptoide Worked

(i have just uninstalled the app and then installed from Play Store the same issue (it close) so i update it from aptoide and it worked)

try again

Waitimg for 5.0d:cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
Before releasing v5.0d I need to know which removed app is associated somehow with

Google Play services

and causes its FC after removing...

Only these apps have been removed in v5.0c comparing to v5.0b:

/system/app/Chrome

/system/app/ChromeCustomizations

/system/priv-app/Excel_SamsungStub

/system/app/Facebook_stub

/system/app/FBAppManager_NS

/system/priv-app/FBInstaller_NS

/system/priv-app/FBServices

/system/priv-app/PowerPoint_SamsungStub

/system/priv-app/Rlc

/system/priv-app/Word_SamsungStub

Could anybody return to v5.0b and then remove above apps one by one with reboot after each deleted app?

As we initially found the cause of FCs - I could release full stable version sooner than I thought :D :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ramoneluis:
Thanks for your work.

How we can use the Secure Folder?

Its possible with this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
Due to the fact that nobody tested above apps after removing (yet) - in the meantime I have done a small investigation (google search) :cool: and there is a result:

>> N950FXXU3BRA8_DevBase_v5.0c2 << - go to post #49

If above version works fine for you -

only then

try below version (otherwise it does not make sense):

>> N950FXXU3BRA8_DevBase_v5.0d << - go to post #49
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] criff:
Hey Alexndr,

/system/app/Chrome -> deleting causes the google services fc

/system/app/ChromeCustomizations -> deleting has no effect

Please remove auto reboot after zip deployment if possible.

By the way, great to see you here. I love your work [N910F]!

Greets

edit: N950FXXU3BRA8_DevBase_v5.0c2 gives google services fc - N950FXXU3BRA8_DevBase_v5.0d not tested
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ilia1985:
Yes, the fc is likely caused by removing chrome or to be exact the webview that comes with chrome which needed for signup page and u like aosp Samsung doesn't have alternative to chrome webview by default.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
As we figured out what exactly was wrong - I have decided to skip v5.0e and release again full version with all features (just except removing Chrome) :cool: thanks to all for help :good:

>> N950FXXU3BRA8_DevBase_v5.0RC1.zip << - full version, release candidate :cowboy:

It has been done already, please read post #32. Just skip BL/CP update (you can do it permanently in future version(s), just read carefully mentioned post).

In case of flashing BL/CP there is no other way than perform "special reboot" at the end to be successful

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
Try this:

>> N950NKSU3BRA1_DevBase_v5.0.zip << (re-uploaded, according to #60)

In my ROM concept (flashing pure stock images, then modify ROM on-the-fly by the installer) it is not easy to create one ZIP file for different devices if /system partition size does not match (N950N has smaller /system partition than N950F), so separate file is the only way

NO (for similar reason as above), but I have plan to create separate thread(s) for S8/S8+ today :)

EDIT: DONE :cool:

Many thanks dev for releasing ROM for N device. My phone is N950N, however the installer quit stating that the zip installer is for SM-N950N only even with clean wipe. What should I do to make the installer to recognise my N950N device? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
My fault, I didn't noticed that there is no separate recovery for N950N, so separate model detection will not work as intended.

I will re-upload working version in a few hours (I'm away at the moment). It will just replace current version with the same name. Stay tuned :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
In my repository (at the moment only for Odin)

My bad, I posted that it is January because of build date "Wed Jan 2 15:08:13 KST 2019"

I should check it more carefully before posting :o

See v6.x changelog, especially this change:

"- Removed "skipblcp" option - baseband/modem will be always updated, bootloader need to be flashed separately (update is usually not mandatory)"

I'm not going to change build.prop - it is misleading people

[MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION] Would there be a way I could flash this your SM-N950F/DS ROM on my SM-N950N? Similar to how Tkkg1994's IronMan ROM worked on all Exynos devices, disguising the SM-N950N variants as SM-N950F?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] _alexndr:
You can try but note that I'm not well experienced in multi-device / multi-variant support with one ROM ZIP. Personally prefer to build separate ROMs

If you would like to try - please use (not documented in post #1) "skipvc" option in the ZIP file name (means "skip variant check"). Othervise installation will fail @ device/variant detection

EDIT: Will not work anyway... I just remembered that N950N has smaller /system partition size than N950F
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] askketchum:
I am also curious and interested on this one as well. Pardon my "noobness". Lol. So I'll pick up the N950F devbase zip file and rename it to include "_skipvc_noroot" if I also want it not rooted then flash install it in TWRP. But will that change the CSC? If not, could I flash a CSC in odin? or How?? Or will I remain with OKR?
