Anyone w/ grandfathered umlimited data on Verizon that has their S9+ that has tried this trick? Picking mine up on Friday...
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] powder012:
I've got gUDP with an unlocked s9+ from BB and tethering worked today.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bsmurray06:
Unlocked S9

I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but just confirming I understand what you guys are saying. With an unlocked Galaxy S9 you can tether right out of the box if you still have the grandfathered unlimited data plan? Is all you do is swap sim card from your old phone? How do you get future os updates and are they going to be updates that won't affect this tethering access? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] VandyCWG:
That would be updates pushed to unlocked S9/S9+ phones. Those are generally a bit slower than carrier updates, but they do come from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bsmurray06:
Thanks for the info
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bsmurray06:
S9+ unlocked on the way

My S9+ unlocked is on the way, is there anything special I need to do with it after unboxing or just insert sim card, power up and open hot spot? I really appreciate the expert advice from you guys since my knowledge about this stuff is very limited.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] LgG2-Ttrain:
Yes all i had to do was insert my verizon sim, and open hotspot and it worked. Now the only thing im missing from the Verizon model is wifi calling, i never used that anyway so its no big deal for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bsmurray06:
Thanks again, just wanted to make sure I didn't mess anything up. Really appreciate the quick response.

Returning S9

Cannot get Wifi to work on the new S9 from verizon. I did a quick search before buying which said foxfi worked but alas NOPE.

So I am going to return the phone to verizon and just wait :( I upgraded from s4 which was nice for a week!

I have grandfathered unlimited data so my options are limited.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bsmurray06:
Bought an unlocked s9 plus straight from Samsung and my hot spot worked right away like the guys on here said it would. I don't believe a Version version will let you unless you pay for one of their tethering plans.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bruin23:
Verizon - Samsung S9+ - Unlocked?

I'm picking up my phone through Verizon but they said they would unlock it. I currently have the Galaxy S7 and was doing the sim card trick. Has anyone else tried with the S9+? But if I get "unlocked" I'm wondering if it will work as you guys have mentioned here. So clutch to have your own hotspot when there isn't one or its slow.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kevindevonwilliams:
Use the unlock version or flash the U1 firmware to get hotspot working
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] ylchang:
Side question...

I see a stock firmware collection website at www . getdroidtips . com / samsung-galaxy-s9-plus-stock-firmware /

and wondering if it is possible to install stock firmware (without unlock) on a carrier-locked S9/S9+ so that can enable tether on a grandfather unlimited account?

Note: I am on AT&T grandfather unlimited plan and AT&T does not allow me to tether.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kevindevonwilliams:
All firmware are carrier branded,

To bypass AT&T tethering you can either use an APP or use the U1 firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bruin23:
Hi Kevin- I verified with verizon that i have an unlocked phone but they said with my old grandfathered plan (been with verizon over 10 years) I would have to pay $30 for tethering. Is this a good tutorial to flash the U1 firmware to U?

Thank you for the help.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kevindevonwilliams:
What firmware are you on? Is it bootloader v1 or v2?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bruin23:
How would I find that out? I tried to go to about phone and looked in the settings but didn't see that....
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bruin23:
Latest firmware I have is: G965USQU1ARBG

Bootloader = stock?

I've rooted my phone before and familiar with that process but I read that my model is not compatible. Do I just have to wait?

Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Snopro686:
Any info would be much appreciated, I currently have a S9+ (SM-G965U) and still have the grandfathered unlimited data plan with Verizon. I really need the mobile hotspot to work. Can anyone confirm that mobile hotspot still works on the unbranded S9+ (SM-G965U1) Thank you in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] hitrek:
I would love to know this as well. I'm on AT&T using the SM-G965U phone. With the November update, AT&T 's apps got installed and now do a tether provisioning check.

Would flashing the U1 firmware work - and would that cause Knox to trip?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] VandyCWG:
Flashing the U1 firmware does not trip Knox and it should let you enable hotspot

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] starbiker99:
I left my phone in my car yesterday while I ran into a building and did some work. I left it because I know that there is zero signal where I was working. When I returned I had no service and it said no sim up in the corner. This is the 2nd time I have seen this. My work phone which was laying right next to it was still working just fine. They weren't in the direct sun. Anyone else see this issue? I'll definitely try and avoid this in the future.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nestorojeda:
Title is self-explanatory.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmacmil:
Define "worth it?" Does 15.1 have features you want that aren't available on stock Nougat? Do you want to get rid of Samsung's "bloatware?" Do you always want to be on the latest Android version? Are you willing to live with possible OS issues that don't exist with the stock ROM?

Only you can answer these questions. I am on stock Nougat and am thinking about LineageOS 15.1 but I'm having a hard time justifying the move since my stock S2 does everything I need it to do.

Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OhioYJ:
For me to a buy a device, Lineage has to be available. It's the reason I bought the T813, when the Tab S3 was out. Jumping from stock to Lineage 14.1 is no question. Going to Lineage 15.1, well, tougher choice, but I'd still do it. Only reason I say that is not as much stuff as been ported into 15.1, it's missing features that 14.1 had. It works fine, just realize they're only on the second official release. It does boot quicker than 14.1. The biggest selling point to Lineage for me is the Privacy Guard, being able to select which apps can do what, and what apps can have access to data (data access has not been ported into 15.1 yet).

You have some control over this stuff in the stock system, but not to the degree of Lineage, want to block an app from your contacts, running in the background, your location, your camera, running at startup, etc, you can do all of that.

You can always go back to stock if you don't like Lineage, so I don't really see the downside to trying it out.

I got my 5t today (with a lot of scratches on screenprotector :crying:)

And i was shocked when i installed oxygenos 4.7.4 and DRM info... My level 1 was gone :confused::crying::silly:

I just reverted back to oreo / oxygenos 5.0.4 and luckily the level 1 security came back.

So you cant have level 1 and nougat oxygenos 4.7.4 / 4.7.5 and 4.7.6!

But it is back when i flashed latest update 5.0.4

DISCLAIMER:

I am not an official maintainer or developer, I have made this thread so we can discuss the builds and possibly have some way of communicating with actual developers who are working on builds for our device.

I am also not responsible for anything that you might chose to do or not do to your personal device, nor am I responsible for anything that happens to it because of decisions you have made.

HOW TO INSTALL:

Install latest stock firmware

Flash TWRP

Wipe Data - System - Dalvik and Cache

Flash latest LineageOS & GApps

FAQ:

Are the official builds stable enough for daily use?

Yes.

Does the camera work?

Yes.

How is the picture quality?

As close to stock as it will ever get without the proprietary Sony algorithms that we will never get anyway. Personally I can't tell the difference between stock and this.

When will we get Oreo builds?

I doubt anyone knows, but constantly asking for it won't bring it faster.

WHAT'S NOT WORKING?

NOTE: Please do not report bugs you encounter after dirty flashing. Try doing a clean flash and recreating the issue first.

Issues with encryption.

Dear maintainer,

I'm using the latest build (lineage-14.1-20180318-nightly-suzuran-signed.zip). After phone encryption I can't decrypt the /data partition when using TWRP (3.2.1-0). Password is correct but it keeps printing:

Faild to decrypt data
Password failed, please try again!

This makes updating the device complicated. I'm using adb sideload to transfer updates to the phone when flashing with TWRP. Mounting external micro SD-card (/sdcard1 | Micro SD card) is also not possible. When you select in TWRP: "Mount -> Micro SD card" it's not possible to mount the external card.

Any ideas?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] rm43115:
Problems

In total the LineageOS 14.1 works fine - I work with the lastest release lineage-14.1-20180318.

Problems:

1. TWRP can not decrypt the data partition.

2. With encrypted data partition, my mobile phone does not work under LineageOS.

3. All actions in the GUI of LineageOS to be subsequently executed under TWRP (like Factory Reset and LineageOS Update) show no reaction, i.e. do not do anything. LineageOS does nothing, TWRP is not started and nothing is executed. Except that the LineageOS Updater reports "error".

4. My hotspot under LineageOS has connection problems, but WLAN is working fine.

I think the first problem is a TWRP problem - the rest are LineageOS problems.

All problems remained unchanged without and with Factory Reset, as well as with LineageOS reinstallation (with full wipe Boot, Cache, Data and System partition) without and with Factory Reset.

Not working (for now):

I'm using lineage-14.1-20180318-nightly-suzuran-signed.zip. Encryption is working and my phone also. What is your problem? Can you specify?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] rm43115:
The thread for the TWRP is well know - give him time - trax7 and TwrpBuilder will integrate encryption ... if possible.

The mobile phone gets no connection to the radio cell.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] shellshocker:
That was also my problem. Just remove SIM-card protection/PIN under Settings -> Security. Reboot.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] rm43115:
Thanks - I will try again as soon as our TWRP is able to decrypt the data partition.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] Berni-0815:
You can only use this rom with disabled sim-card protection? :eek: That's not good...
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] shellshocker:
Well yes. After encrypting the phone I won't get a signal. Seems to be a bug. And another problem arises after phone encryption: The signal is not well. So the phone boosts the mobile connection which drains the battery faster.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] shellshocker:
No. I think this should work with the official build. I'm not going to flash a different ROM. I'm using this phone daily. So no time for experiments.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] shellshocker:
Well yes, this is a bug. But not a serious one. What can possibly happen when sim-card protection is disabled? When the phone is locked someone needs my 12 number digit to unlock the phone before he can make a call.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] Berni-0815:
And calls very expensive numbers like sex hotlines... :p

In my eyes sim card protection is better than phone encryption. And if phone encryption causes problems, I know for myself what I will prefer... ;)
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] shellshocker:
Srsly? You got to be kidding. Calling expensive numbers is bad. But having all my data (chat logs, private e-mails, etc.) is a nightmare.

Yeah obviously: A not encrypted phone. But that's not an option.

Question: Does encryption work without any problems on your build?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Original Android Development] Berni-0815:
Yes! :good:

No! :D

I'm making frequent backups and store them externally. And for me this is a phone; nothing is on it that causes nightmares in my life; i.e.:

e-mail is imap-based; so I have them on my desktop too.

Chat? Wtf is chat? :p

Pictures are copied to my local clowd asap after taking them.

I'm only using Threema as messenger and with that you can make local backups and restore them on any device with key (Threema is buy-ware)

I can live without my phone from now to then without loosing anything. Give it a try; life can be easier, believe me... :cool:

I really don't know it, because I don't use it... :angel:

For your information:

to 1.) No LineageOS problem but a TWRP problem ...

to 2.) ... and deactivating the SIM-PIN-Access is not acceptable for me (... so I have to hope for Oreo for encrypting my phone).
