S8+

Dear foobar66. 11 people downloaded your test.zip. If something would be wrong somebody has written in this thread. Please integrate kernel s8+ in next update
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
i'm still on v27 as base, but i now have some problems that other people described as well:

-a lag when starting to play a video (youtube / facebook). it's not a stutter, it just takes a few seconds before video starts playing. in installed mx player and tested samsung default video player as well, but this doesn't solve it.

-first time a gif is openend (in whatsapp for example) the phone hangs for a while. seems to have a lot of trouble opening it. the second time (of the same gif) is no problem.

-phone is not recognized by pc anymore. it does give a sound notification if i connect it, but it doesn't show up in explorer..

-page loading sign/arrow sometimes seems to hang / is static.

cheers!

I am waiting for this problem to ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
It is already part of the v29 release.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] lezeik:
As I updated from v27 to v29 ROM, I didn't do a clean install, as it seems unnecessary.

However I did do a cahe/Dalvik cache whipe before and after flashing the latest (v29) ROM.

I have no clue as to what could cause Photos to crash. but I believe the issue started since the v28 ROM:

v28 (2018-03-30)

- Update: Google messaging

- Update: Google contacts

- Update: Google play store

- Update: Google photos
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] hugoglezp:
I flashed v29 and it was very good but cloud print and smart view didn't work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
that is because it isn't included :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] hugoglezp:
It would be great to add a flashable zip with optional features so everybody would choose what to install, just a suggestion
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ZecaEdge:
Photos are fine. Clean install.

v30 (2018-04-03):

- New: Google calendar provider (gets rid of Samsung calendar)

- New: Printing / Google cloud print

- Delete: Samsung calendar provider

- Removed non-working camera modes

- Fixed problem with video lag in Youtube and from social media

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850505509

If you do a dirty flash then printing will not work ! You need to manually grant location permission to the "Printer Spooler" app. To do that go to Settings > Apps; then enable "Show system apps" in the menu; fine Printer Spooler and grant the permission for location. No need to do this if you clean flash.

I don't have a network printer so I have not tested that; however I tested printing PDFs to Google Drive and that worked.

Manage printers in Settings > Connections > More connection settings > Printing

Install the following app for Google cloud printing: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.cloudprint

- Fixed problem with video lag in Youtube and from social media

Yeeees ? waiting your link boss ,?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
awesome foobar66: how did you solve the video lag bug (or: what was causing it)? is it the same thing that is causing .gif lags as well?

and can someone maybe confirm that the pc visibility issue is v27 specific (or not :p)?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] mbar64:
Finally is video lag fixed ? thank You so much boss best rom forever ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jensonah:
Hi there!

Maybe a dumb question, but does this rom work on s8+?

Thanks in advance

-Edit-

It looks like a great rom and I would really like to try it but I couldn't find a specific s8+ build. (I have a SM-G955F).

If you ever have the ambition to make an s8+ build I'm willing to help test it etc.

Great Rom

Love the Rom, just installed on my S8, no problems whatsoever. I do have a question though-

If I wanted to add the edge functionality back into the phone, is that possible? Earlier in the thread someone asked about screen mirroring, you said it was as simple as getting the apk, adding it to the .zip, and re-flashing the rom. Would that be the case with the edge functionality? If so, would it be possible to install after the rom has already been flashed? Is that question clear?

Thanks again for an amazing rom, regardless as to whether I can get edge back, I'll be keeping it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ZecaEdge:
In Android host its the file 'test' . Its for S8+.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
you can try, but there is quite a big chance that it won't work 100%. not only the apk's but also some permissions and maybe some other dependencies are removed from the rom. the edge functionality is a little bit more 'baked' into a rom than screen mirroring...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Read before you post ...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Correct, putting back EDGE is not so easy as permission files have been removed.

IMHO, edge is pretty useless, just one of those gimmicks ...

Use a Samsung ROM if you want it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jensonah:
I get it, it's very tiring as developer to get stupid questions but since you don't mention any s8+ variant on the first page and I do have seen people comment about a test build (although I couldn't find it) and since these devices are quite similar, I didn't find it such a strange question. Besides that, I've offered my help as well (for how much it's worth).

I just wanted to get that out, have a nice day
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xtmzone:
I have a problem with this ROM .

When i connect the phone to PC , no MTP !

Is there any fix ?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Thanks for your help, appreciate that. The reason that S8+ is not mentioned is that it has not been tested.

If you search the thread you can see the following post:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76075050&postcount=495
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
MTP is currently broken since v27 ... no fix yet. Use adb to push files onto your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xtmzone:
Thanks for your answer ! no way to fix ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
I need to look at it (I never use it myself - I always use abd) ... don't ask for ETA's ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kimern:
It works, you just have to flash a S8+ kernel after the rom. I've been running this a week on my s8+ with TGPKernel, works like a charm.

Only having issues triggering Google Assistant, as i am using it to control my IKEA lights. I suspect converting the Google app to a system app will fix the issue.

Will try and see if it fixes it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
The problem with MTP is he latest NX kernel.

I flashed the standard Samsung kernel and MTP is working fine.

Will go back to the previous version of the kernel; it was working fine.

Will build a release later this evening with some other updates ... first need some food :p
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] xtmzone:
Good !

Thank you !

PS : You think is there any possibility to make a smalle navbar for your rom! If yiu can make this will ni brilliant !

I tried with some apk's from nougat, but no luck!

Maybe you know a solution to make it smaller !

I have some informations about where is need to make ca change, but i'm not a dev or a programmer and i don't know how can i do this .

"

decompile framework-res apk, change navbar height in dimens, recompile and flash "
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] rajkabul:
Any chance for S8+ version of your rom?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] IDan1109:
did you update the makerom.txt? can i run it as bash script?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Yes it is updated. But you will still be missing files which get copied into the ROM. So you will not be able to just run the script.

Just look at the script and extract these files from the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Nope ... I don't own an S8+ so I would not be able to test anything.

You could try flashing the ROM and then flash an S8+ kernel ... might work ... I don't know ... might also brick your phone ... do at your own risk.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] toxic_garden:
could someone please test if copy&paste is working fine on v4? Since i clean installed, i can't paste text anywhere (chrome, jota+, google notes)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Just checked ... copy work but paste does not ...

I think I know why ... Let me check ... I will confirm.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
v5 (2018-02-18):

- fix for copy/paste (clipboard was missing in v4)

- streamlining of installation script

If you were on v4 then dirty flash is OK.

If you were on v0,v1,v2,v3 ... then do a clean flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Enrico0815:
foobar66 I cant call anybody, because it doesnt show the InCallUI.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Which version are you on?

Did you do clean flash?

Try going into Settings > Apps > Phone, then make sure that "Calling app" is set to Phone.

This looks like it's exactly what I want, but after months with no android pay when I was running beta oreo, I'm reluctant to lose it again.

Is the problem with majisk not passing safetynet permanent on this ROM you think, or something fixable?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Android pay will not work on this ROM. Read the |OP|.

[MENTION=3463514]foobar66[/MENTION] (and everybody else who's interest) I've installed the rom (s8 v30 version) on the s8+ for about an hour now and it works great! I've only found 2 bugs. The first and most problematic one is regarding calls, I dont get a dailing screen, meaning I can't hang up! The second problem is really the fingerprint sensor, it doesn't work. But that is no problem (for me at least). So if you or anyone else know a fix or workaround for the dailing problem that'd be great! Thanks.

--edit--

After the setting up the fps in the setup wizard it seems it was turned of (not by me) but after activation it worked just fine. The swipe down/up for notifications and quicksettings doesnt work however, but I dont know whether that's build into the rom in the first place or not
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
I'll test it today and will give you feedback soon
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ZecaEdge:
I didn't ask for a ETA. ? That sucks.. ?Well hope you fix it soon.. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ImSoBored:
As for the dialing issue, set the Google dialer as your default call app. To do so, go to Settings>Apps>Phone>Calling app and select it there.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
Just wondering something since I have this rom, why do we need to set resolution to WQHD :confused:

Haha
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jensonah:
Hi there! I've been running this rom on my s8+ for a while now and it's really good! But I've found another bug but I dont know whether it's fixable or not. Im unable to use (google) live wallpapers (and yes I do have installed them. Any fixes? Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] privatecheval:
Hi there,

great job with the ROM. Thanks! Unfortunately Google Play Music Player does not appear on the Always on display for me. It's switched on and I can't swipe to get to it neither. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
Everything is working perfectly on s8+ 955 model, any issue on sdcard after flashing, all gapps working fine, safety net passed, rooted... Thanks bro

Will you add support in a single zip package on future or separated?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
No need any more ... I have to remove this from the ¦OP¦.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Live wallpapers has been removed from the ROM ... it's pretty useless ... read the ¦OP¦.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Single zip file. v30 supports both S8 and S8+ (but v30 has the MTP bug so that will not work).

I prefer to use a single kernel which supports both models.

Current kernel is NX-R7 (but has the MTP bug).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
This should normally be done automatically at boot time. So it might mean something is wrong on S8+.

Can you please check if you can find files on /data which are called:

LOGFILE*****

These are the log files from init.d and services.d. One of them sets the google dialer at boot time.

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ImSoBored:
I had the same problem as you with a fresh install in a normal S8, so I don't think the model is the issue here. Find attached the names of the files thay you requested.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] zxspectrun:
Ok got it

I'll stay in the tested rom then :good: let me know if you want me to check something else
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
That is strange; the correct log files are there so it means the scripts have run at boot time; normally the script:

/system/etc/services.d/LS99settingsonce

will automatically set the google dialer as the default one ... this surely works fine on S8.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ImSoBored:
My guess is that Google Play messed it up when it updated the dialer, or something along these lines.

Talking about bugs, I found that in several versions of this ROM the Messages app drains a lot of battery. The solution for me was to remove it from the system folder and download the Android Messages app from the Google Play.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Jensonah:
That seem to be the right conclusion. My dailer didnt work at first as well, I had to manually activate it. Google play says I have an update, but i can't update it. So I think you're right ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
foobar66, you could just remove the dialer script and let people set it as default manually. in that case you can also just update the app through playstore when there is an update :)

btw, could you please tell me what was causing the video lag issue?

cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] dr460nf1r3:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] alexior92:
I know that in the OP I can read '' removed gear stuff'' but my question is : There is a way to use this rom with gear stuff? ( for example installing later them)?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] hugoglezp:
Does anybody know an app to cast phone screen into tv like smart view?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
No, the google dialer is not the original Google one; it is a patched version. The original Google dialer does not have "missed call notifications" on Samsung.

It has my own signature to avoid it getting updated on the play store.

Video lag was due to mediametrics which were disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Sure, first go figure out from the script attached to ¦OP¦ what was deleted. Then figure out everything you need for gear stuff (APKs and other files). Unzip the ROM file. Put back the stuff you need for gear. Zip the ROM again and flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Interesting ... I have not observed this so far. I will put on my monitor to see if I have this as well.

Note that I have MMS auto download turned off in the messages app (Msg > Settings > Advanced).

Might be a stupid question, but would you be able to pair an S3 frontier with this rom and use it?

Apologies if anyone has asked this already!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
btw, i asked in nx kernel thread, but the kernel shouldn't be causing any mtp issues. maybe the ramdisk changes/other patches cause it somehow?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Thanks for asking ... I will check tonight. Could indeed be that the ramdisk patches are the culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
so you found the problem. awesome! was it kernel ramdisk?

i'll wait for a crdx base and then that will be my main driver until i get a s10 :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
Yes, one of the knox things on the ramdisk causes MTP not to work. Grrr ...

I did not see it as I do not use MTP ... too slow ... I always push / retrieve files via ADB.

Noob questions

Hello I really like this rom.

But i have have some questions.

1. Do I need root to get this rom?

if so what do use for the s8.

2. Is TWRP needed before the installation?

3. Do I need to replace the boot loader with a modded one?

4. Do I need a new kernel like MadMax-Kernel?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
what are you trying to say? latest version is 31. and if you read (just a few posts back), you can see that 31 supports s8+...

no offense, but if these are your questions, i suggest you spend a day on this forum first, to read all about rooting and flashing custom roms. you really should know what you're doing. or know what to do when you f*** up a flash :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] foobar66:
How can you know that you like this ROM if you have not even installed it?

Do some reading please before posting. Start with the |OP|.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] geekitus:

Thanks for the ROM, installation went flawlessly on my Dual SIM GM950FD which I can confirm fully working with both SIM cards.

However, I don't find the SIP account options (voip) in the google dialer app... Am I something missing there?

Oh, and I think "Dual Messenger" (having two different eg whatsapp accounts) is a great Samsung Feature in the original S8 Oreo, what would I have to do to re-implement this?
