you flash TWRP via odin and once you have finished flashing twrp, boot into recovery (Be sure to turn off auto reboot in odin) then reboot into recovery (hold power, volume down and bixby until screen goes dark then holding the bixby and powerdown move the other to volume up and hold until it reboots in twrp. WHen you first boot into twrp be sure to format data and flash no dm verity. DO not reboot - then flash RMM State - now you can flash a rom or reboot to stock.

Hope this helps
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] costafabiof:
The only thing I did differently was the installation order.

Upon entering TWRP, I installed RMM STATE, NO-VERITY, SUPERSU.

You wrote NO-VERITY, RMM STATE, and then in my case SUPERSU at the end.

Was that the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Geekser:
When you first intall TWRP - the files are encrypted - so you need to format data and then install No Verity immediately before you do anything else. Once you have done that - then you can flash the kernel or the RMM State - whatever - just don't reboot first.

SO let's start over. tell me, what problem are you having. What is happening with your phone
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] costafabiof:
Thank you very much. Then I found out where I went wrong.

Because I formatted the DATA folder correctly, but I installed RMM STATE first, then NO-VERITY.

When I release, I'll try again.

I don't have OEM unlock under Developer Options. What can I do next?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] costafabiof:
You have to leave your cell phone on for about 168 hours. No power off, no reboot. There you will enable it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Geekser:
When you don't have OEM showing in Developer Settings - you are correct - 168 hours/7 days - BUT, you can reboot your phone wihtout it effecting the time. I know -I did it on my S8. While waiting for the 7 days to end, I rebooted several times and exactly at the 168 hour mark, OEM Unlock was visible. (In fact when I first checked it wasn't there - I had to reboot - and then it was)

I don't think you should turn off mobile - mobile data needs to be connected and I think you should try to leave the phone on most of the time - but don't be afraid to reboot - it won't effect you.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] costafabiof:
In fact, I find all this information very strange, in my first lock I left it turned on and restart inadvertently with 3 days and only appeared the OEM after reboot.

In the second, the current, I'm leaving it turned on without disconnecting I'm already 4 days and nothing, I'm afraid to restart and not work. lol

I dont have any problem. After update to oreo latest i decide to flash twrp and stuff. Internal storage works fine on twrp (not show 0mb).

1. Odin 3.13, disable auto reboot

2. Flash twrp 3.2.1 on ap slot

3. Reboot and quick hold power+bixby+vol up to enter twrp (carefull not to let it boot to system)

4. On success, swipe to allow modification on twrp first screen, format data - yes.

5. Reboot recovery.( carefull not to swipe, also disable check to install all twrp app/update)

6. Flash no verity 6.0

7. Flash rmm state

8. Reboot system.

Be aware that sometimes, that fix in twrp deletes corresponding file, but fails to edit build.prop on reboot. Or our system restores original build.prop somehow, on boot.

Hey dear community, I wanted to rooted my cell phone did not sparked then took a cfautoroot since comes when you start a message with: verification failed your cell phone can not be restarted the integrity check failed. you have to reset the device blah blah and below is a reset button which then restarts the phone and then it always restarts then the message is deleted after about 5 seconds it starts again and that all the time when I spam the power button then it goes out and I'm in the download mode but not in the recovery mode then starts this will be deleted again and if I want to flash an already downloaded stock rom closes odin itself or hangs on setup connection or ah is there all threads completed ( suceed 0 / failed 0)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ichygoo:
This is my first post so I apologize if it's in the wrong place or sounds nooobish. First I followed the instructions on the first page of this thread, and it went swimmingly. No problems untill I get my device all setup and get a security message, illegal operation or something please restart. When I do my phone bricks itself and I get yet another message saying only authorized roms can be flashsed. I reflash stock and everything is fine. So how do I keep TWRP be and root without this message and reset softbrick?

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lluna_polanco:
Hello,

First of all, thanks for the guide!

Now I would like to report my issue:

I failed to read the entire post so thats my mistake and nothing to do with the OP information, now I am waiting in order to get the OEM unlock in the developer options, however this is what i find weird...

On my first try to install twrp i was successful in installing and boot into the customer recovery, I was able to swipe to allow changes and was able to format I then proceed to install Magisk which passed, now onto the real issue, I rebooted the phone without flashing no very and RMM STATE, however my phone still believes that im rooter, I am unable to install netflix from the playstore and samsing pass believe that im rooted, I installed stock ROM from a thread in the forums and I am updated to CRC7.

Also when on download mode the device shows "OEM LOCK: OFF" when i try to flash anything i receive no custom binaries allowed.

Any ideas?

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

Did you remove the "Reboot" option in ODIN before flashing?

---------Edit--------------

I was able to get the OEM unlock on my phone without waiting for the 7 days thanks to this post: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-8...-recommend-t3791984/post76573579#post76573579

Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed

Hi,

I get the message "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed" on my Samsung S8+. :crying:

My order:

1. unlock OEM

2. Flash TWRP (the version in the thread didnt work on the S8+, need other)

3. Format data and reboot in recovery again

4. install "no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip"

5. install "Magisk v16.7" (later I saw that there is a new version "Magisk v17.3")

6. reboot, and restore backup from google.

"root checker" say no root, Magisk-Manager show "no version" of magisk.

I tried after that to boot in recovery (try magisk v17.3), but I get the message "Only official released binaries........".

Only the download-mode work. Now I flash with Odin the orginal firmware.

What am I doing wrong ? Did I forgot something ?

I hope you will help me. :angel:

Thank you!

I noticed that the situation has improved recently with an update (GMail app update?). It used to be the case that if you scrolled down to the attachment in an email then the app would crash. I have found that (Amazon Fire 7 - 2015 and Amazon Fire HD8 - 2016) doing this no longer causes a crash. However, clicking on the attachment to open it fails. There is a work around though. If you click on the Google drive symbol on the attachment it will be saved to your Google drive. If you then leave the Gmail app and open the Google drive app you can open the attachment from there.

RR, AOSP-E, OmniROM, Cardinal to name a few.

I have a weird problem. Every-time I reboot my phone, the system time changes to some random time and year changes to 1970

but after about 2 minutes when the network is available, the time corrects itself to present value.

I have clean flashed all the ROM's

You will need to use IPVanish Openvpn service. The app below has a feature to choose which apps to go through VPN.

Hi guys,

I am happy to inform you about Android game "Luna Signal" I recently published on Play Store. It is "old school", retro style 2D arcade. I was a single developer working on it for a long time using just pure Java (without any frameworks). I would like to hear your opinion about the game.

Link to Play Store

Thanks,

Damir Milovic
[Android Apps and Games] Craonom:
link?

Can you provide a link?

Is it the one by Digital Atrium? I will give feedback.
[Android Apps and Games] dachans:
I am new on this forum and I am still not allowed to provide link. You can search on Google Play Store "Luna Signal".

Yes, it is one by Digital Atrium :)
[Android Apps and Games] TeamAlimote:
Feedback

Well done - Its a big accomplishment developing a game as a single developer. First of, it was a bit confusing being presented with the settings menu as the first thing when opening the game. First off, you should really consider making the inputs/control into a digital joystick, the arrow controls are quite tedious and in many situation frustrating. Also the training level seems very long and has no checkpoints, so I had to start from the very beginning whenever I died. After 2 tries I quited the game, since I lost my motivation. The game is well optimized, very small build size and has some potential in gameplay. With some small changes, you could make it 5 times better imo.

Congratulations with your release & good luck :)
[Android Apps and Games] dachans:
Thank you very much TeamAlimote for verbose feedback. I put your comments in TODO list for next update. Regarding checkpoints, you have Quick save/load option when you pause game. It should be very helpful to avoid start game from beginning every time :)

Also there is button "+" in pause menu where you can increase energy or ammo. You just need to watch rewarded video (instead to buy it through in-app purchase). Please let me know if those options are helpful.
[Android Apps and Games] TeamAlimote:
No problem.. Nice with the save/load feature! I completely missed that, and think most new players will do so. Maybe you can give a small introduction to the save system just before the training level - Or maybe have forced auto saves on certain progression points :)
[Android Apps and Games] dachans:
Luna Signal updated v.1.04.

Game Luna Signal has been updated. Fixes included:

FIX: Settings menu has been removed when game starts for the very first time.

FIX: First mission is now easier to play. Two friendly vehicles have been added (track radar for additional blue dots)

Thanks Teamalimote for suggestions!
[Android Apps and Games] TeamAlimote:
Awsome! Good job ;) I'll test it out when I have some time during the weekend
[Android Apps and Games] dachans:
And final recommended improvement has been included in new game update (v.1.05):

Joystick instead buttons. Now is really easier to control movements.
[Android Apps and Games] dachans:
Multi language supported

I am happy to inform you that game Luna Signal now supports the following languages:

English, Serbian, Italian, German, Hungarian, French, Russian and Spanish.

You can check game at: Luna Signal at Google Play Store

Hello guys, after looking out a lot to find a solution to my problem I noted there there isn't any thread directly treating this problem.

So, yesterday I was trying to update my amazfit Bip, because it has been unable to connect with mi fit app for some time now.

I followed a guide on how to do it with gadgetbridge.

Unfortunately I installed .fw file before .res, the result is horrible, I've got my Bip in a black screen for 2 days now.

It appears as a Bluetooth device, but no app was able to pair with it, I've tried mi fit, gadgetbridge, notify and amazfit app neither my phone will pair with it.

Have anyone seen a solution!? Maybe a hardware one!?
