To make your device certified in Google play store do:

-enable plane mode in your phone,

-go to apps - show system apps - clear cache in Google services framework, Google play services and Google play store,

-open mixplorer and go to /data/data/com.android.vending/shared_prefs and open finsky.xml with code editor, search for "device-google-certified"value="false" and change "false" to "true" save the file and reboot your device, turn off plane mode -

Your device should be certified now.

Having same problem. Snapchat dont work. Worked fine until v90. Tried remove/install magisk.apk and clear cache.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Just to let you know guys: I've ordered a 6T ...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
The patched magisk fundamentally does NOT change anything to magisk itself. It is just a convenient way to update some of the kernel ramdisk files (so that cannot be the reason for non working repack).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
owww noooo :(:eek:

hope you enjoy the phone, man!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
Tried changing kernel and also reinstall magisk. Snapchat still don't work. Don't know if the magisk hide or snapchat, but it worked perfectly until v90
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xxxPLETTIxxx:
Stange, I did a clean flash v90 and my Snapchat is working, even without Magisk Hide.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] surfsyco:
Fook it! I'm doing the same
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
Ya, just updated Google play services.

Now it's working fine again.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xxxPLETTIxxx:
Fine
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
So, no more Google wiz?

V90 is the last update?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Baalzeph:
Weird,

After hours searching a new way, i only found LightRom, wich is close to googlewizz rom. If you have any suggestion of a cust rom without samy things, it would be appreciated :)

Ps : found scary comments reinstalling pixel icon pack on playstore....
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
How come new Google updates don't show in playstore?

Since Google play services, messages and contacts have new version than the rom?

Is that a rom or Google problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
To be truthful I don't think that you will find any other satisfying you rom after using GoogleWiz.

This rom is already almost perfect, all we would have to do is update security patch once a month and update apps, some of them with play store and the rest with apk mirror. It is not a big deal I think.

If OP would be so kind and support us with a little "how to" install security patches and what to do with Magisk to make it work if there would be a newer version available - than I would stick to this rom because I have to say that I'm pretty much addicted..... ???

That is the error shown in logcat when trying to make a Google backup. If someone knows what that mean than we can try to find a solution to make it work.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Depends ... if I can get the S8 screen fixed for a reasonable price it will go to my wife.

Then I will continue to support it in line with the monthly security updates.

Let's see on Saturday what the Samsung service centre says about the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Balle o'kamel:
How exactly do you update play services? In play store the only alternative is "Deactivate".

Should I know how to do this? Haha I Feel incredibly stupid.

EDIT: Serched in thread. Found solution. Feel even more stupid than before.

However, snapchat working again!

This is funny

I always use Notorious Kernel and have no problems
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
OK that explains it ... my ROM has the stock kernel.

v2 (2018-02-17):

- build.prop optimizations

- installer improvements

- Google Contacts updated to latest version

v2 is uploading to androidfilehost ...

Wipe before flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] tropilon:
How is battery on this rom ?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:

I have a one question. Could you explain me how to install Samsung cloud app? I need to have access to my pictures.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ImbaWind:
##CLOUD
delete_recursive("/system/app/CloudGateway2017"); #Connect to Samsung Cloud/GDrive option in My Files app
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/SamsungCloudGreat"); #Samsung Cloud OREO

##ACCOUNT
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/SamsungAccount_Star"); #Samsung Account OREO
delete("/system/etc/sysconfig/samsungaccount.xml"); #Power config for Samsung Account apk

You will need these back in your system I reckon.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
v3 (2018-02-18):

- build.prop optimizations

- installer improvements

- Added MTP apk and daemon

- Added Stk and SimSettings manager

- Corrected defect in adblocking command

Full wipe required.

Script for making the ROM updated (just minor changes).

See attachments in |OP|.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Sorry guys ... I noticed that "dirty flashes" are not working ...

Will upload v4 soon which will fix this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] toxic_garden:
i was just about to say that dirty flashing v3 over v0 stays in boot animation for ~10 minutes now. :D

So i'll hit F5 for some time until v4 is up and boot to TWRP in the meantime...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Yes, really sorry ... the reason is that a dirty flash overwrites the following file:

/data/system/users/0/settings_secure.xml

and then all your settings are gone so a reboot will get stuck.

Really sorry ... fix is ready ... just need to flash and test if it works and then upload.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] toxic_garden:
does this mean i'll have to clean flash anyways since v3 already tried to boot and had this file overwritten?

Not too much of a hassle since i just set it up yesterday with Oreo, so no personal data would be lost.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
v4 (2018-02-18):

- fix problem with dirty flashes

- removed additional fonts

- removed /etc/tima data files

- fixed /etc/fonts.xml file to match actual fonts

- updated symlinks in installer

Due to previous dirty flash problem you must do a full wipe for v4.

(once you have v4 future dirty flashes will work OK)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
v4 is available; use that release please.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
v24 (2018-03-19):

- Update Google calendar

- Update Magisk to latest version

- Update Google photos

- Update Samsung camera

It is getting slower while watching the first video on facebook or instagram. kernel may be doing the problem? There was the same problem in the previous version. I did a clean installation ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
I personally flash the rom then nox kernel and then magisk and I don't have any bug, everything is working fine on s8+

I'm only having 1 bug, can't set live wallpapers
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Puremin0rez:
I can also confirm this ROM is working fine on my S8+ DualSim (G955FD) if you do the following: Flash ROM -> Flash NOX -> Flash MAGISK

Any chance you can include both S8 & S8+ kernels for NOX in the ROM so it just works without having to do the above steps?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Andrunya:
Call recording

Dear foobar66. Does this rom has call recording function in dealer? If no can You implement this like in samsung dealer?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
hi foobar66, i just checked out the latest version and have some remarks. you seem like a very neat person, so i hope it helps you to make the rom even neater :)

-cmhprovider is still in the rom. when you remove gallery, you can remove this as well (right)?

-filterprovider is still in the rom. when you remove filterinstaller, i guess you can remove this as well (right)?

-healthservice is still in the rom. when you remove shealth, i guess you can remove this as well (right)?

-in ui sounds, there is a specific sound named xxBixbyxx. guess this can be trimmed as well, as you removed bixby completely. some unused hoover sounds as well.

-the googleextshared apk is not renamed to 'base.apk'. i didn't check the rest of the apk's, just noticed this one by accident.

-i don't know if it's a problem, but in updater-script there are two identical symlinks with different linked files:

symlink("Roboto-Regular.ttf", "/system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf");

symlink("Roboto-Regular.ttf", "/system/fonts/SECRobotoLight-Regular.ttf");

i think the second one should be a link for Roboto-Light.ttf

-and again, i don't know if it's a problem or not, but at the bottom of your build.prop an enter is missing for ro.csc.sales_code=XEB

good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kimern:
I unfortunately had to move to another rom due to some instability.

I will help getting this on the S8+ as soon as my days are a little less busy.

Can confirm phone was working just fine out of the box, meaning your script worked.

Had some issues when pulling down the notification shade. Status bar would disappear.

Can't remember other issues i had at the moment, but nothing major/broken. Minor things making it difficult for me to use as a daily.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ZecaEdge:
Thanks for the ROM! Hope you continue to support it. Excelent.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barreto:
Hi Puremin0rez

I also have a 950FD. How do you choose the SIM card to make calls? The dialler doesn't have that option.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Puremin0rez:
I don't actually have a second SIM installed (I ordered the phone internationally just for the future support in case I ever wanted a second SIM), so it's not functionality I've noticed missing - but you do appear correct, I don't seem to see anything about SIM selection in the Google Dialer. Might require Samsung Dialer.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
#

It's not a bug ... live wallpapers has been removed from the ROM.

I will make that clear in ¦OP¦. Pretty useless if you ask me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
No call recording for now. I've looked around but it does not seem so easy. Check out the play store and try some apps from there. Personally, I never use this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] imelc01:
First of all - thanks for ur work! This rom feels super smooth and everything works for me, well done Sir!

I have checked the first pages several times but havent found any information about "how to update the rom".

Do I always have to wipe data and do a clean install? Or is it possible to Update from v23 to v24 in another way?

I hope someone could help me out here,

thanks in advance!

imelc01
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Thanks a lot, very good feedback. Indeed some additional things which can be removed. Will be part of next release.

CMHProvider can be removed.

I did leave HealthService in the ROM; SHealth will allow you to monitor hart rate. I used it when doing sports.

Filterprovider is needed for the Camera modes.

Symlinks are correct.

APKs which have an oat file are not renamed to base. I ran into trouble at one point with this ... but I can't remember the details right now.

Regarding build prop: it does not need a newline at the end ... Android is based on Linux ;) ... not on DOS ;-(
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mbar64:
I can not found stock kernel. Can you help me? Thanks ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
No wipe needed from v23 to v24.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
ROM has the NOX kernel, read |OP|.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xtmzone:
This ROM makes me to use Google Apps, i think i the first rom who can do this !

Is a good ROM, with stability and fluid !

Only one thing : customization.

Like you said, the rom is stable now, everything works, everything is good.

Maybe is time to do this rom to the next lever CUSTOMIZATIONS !

Can you make some customization for this ROM like :

Center clock, net speed, navbar smaller, remove warning from sound and light, zero camera...etc or maybe a ROM control it will be great !

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
Weird dude because I don't have any minor issue, I have an G955 S8+
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
from now on i am on this rom (a very tiny bit adjusted) as my base. if i encounter any other stuff, i will keep you informed.

for now i noticed the first boot up time was super fast. i am used to deodexed roms, so that may be the reason. the rom itself is supersmooth and stable. quite logical, because it is so neatly slimmed down. i'm interested in smoothness and battery life in the next couple of days.

the only 'bug' i have is that in one of my apps (chronus) the percentage sign (%) isn't displayed properly. it shows as tofu (crossed box). i don't think any other app is having problems with it.. does anyone have a clue on how to figure out which font (or lack of) is causing this?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ole12:
Yea, apkmirror is your guy.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
The reason is that there is a directory missing on /data

Do the following:

> adb shell

$ su

# mkdir /data/log

# sync

# reboot

And then check again.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] AndrzejDwo:
After that there are many different logs... Logcat attached. Google backup still doesn't work. If You will have some other ideas I'm open to test everything out. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Journyman16:
S'OK for you guys... I'm low income so a new phone is not so simple. le sigh!

Look around for non-Samsung repairers. In Australia there are quite a lot of them (we even have 1 or 2 in kiosks in every mall) and the price would be far more reasonable.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] _sbth:
Lads, could we look into merging this abandoned ROM into GoogleWiz? It has things like AOSP lockscreen and notification drawer, plus a very Pixel-y setup screen (it's actually from the Pixel 2). This is TRULY GoogleWiz, but seems to be missing things like the Pixel icon overlays (WiFi, battery, LTE, Quick Settings icons, etc., not the app icons). Also, it's old. Not even sure if it's capable of being bumped up to Oreo. Maybe we can contact the dev?

It might help the longevity of the S8 when we lose our Lord and Saviour foobar. :( I'm gonna miss you, dude.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Don't commit suicide yet ;)

Tomorrow I am going to the Sammy service center to see what they say about the broken screen ...

I will repair it anyway and give it to my wife; nice upgrade for her from her S6.

Monthly updates will keep coming but new development will be slow (actually not much more which I can develop).

If someone else wants to take it over ... that is also fine ... but you need to have experience with building ROMs and Linux.

I am happy to explain ... but not to noobs ...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] _sbth:
Hehe. I won't now. :D

I have years worth of experience in Linux as it's my daily driver, but zero experience with ROMs. :/ I'll see if I can learn.

Anyway, thank you again for all your work. :) I'm very grateful that you'll still put your free time and effort into this ROM. You're an awesome dev!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
To be fair: there is not so much real "development" going on (in the sense of "writing code").

It all starts from a working Sammy ROM ... then removing things ... and adding other things ...

The only real "code writing" is the scripting in /etc/init.d/ and /etc/services.d/

The rest is intelligent picking apart and reassembly ;) ... that is the case for > 90% of the ROMs on XDA.

Any news regarding [MENTION=4778658]cantenna[/MENTION] and voip and volte??

Now that we can look forward to more precious time with this ROM, this would really be a nice bonus :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kuduku:
VOLTE working fine. No issues
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Sprelle:
VoLTE works? Great, but how? Did you use Cantenna's howto in post # 3733 ??

Or did I miss something? Pls?

No news regarding VoWIFI? this was reported as not working november 5th...

VoLTE only solves call quality, but VoWIFI would enable us all to use free wifi to call even when there is bad cell reception :)

Looking forward hearing from you.

Well guys.. got my 6T today.. GoogleWiz already running on it ?

Phone is a beast...too big really...have to get used to it. Much faster than S8. Hardly any bloat. Screen is good but S8 screen is slightly better in terms of Color calibration.

But complex as well with A/B partitioning...I already soft bricked it LOL within the first 30 minutes...XDA is your best friend as usual. Phone is already rooted of course.

Anyway I like it.
