No creo que funcione el VoLTE xq ni si quiera me aparece la opción, como sea donde vivo aún no hay la nueva gigared sólo 4G.

No se puede flashear esta rom con el módem de Telcel?

I do not think that the VoLTE works or even if the option appears, however I live, there is still no new gigared only 4G.

Can not flash this rom with Telcel's modem?

Does this version also require 7 days of Sim card use, before the own unlock option is available?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] Teracotta:
No, the bootloader will prevent it. I wonder if it's possible using Prince Comsy Odin workaround. Strange that the unlocked bootloader will run unsigned samsung images, but will not allow signed samsung images that don't match?

Entonces sí resulta ser una cuestión meramente del firmware operador o de su CSC en específico al menos, no entiendo el porqué le quitarían la opción en la libre, no tiene sentido.

En cuanto al módem de Telcel, desconozco si se pueden mezclar diferentes firmwares. Yo en el s7 sí llegué a cruzar entre diferentes y nunca tuve problemas, pero creo que han cambiado algunas cosas apartir del s8.

It's completely dependant on the carrier firmware then, or their csc at least. About telcel's modem, I have done that before with the S7 and never got a problem, but things are different since the s8 as I know

The same normal seven day period as the F variant, yes.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] Teracotta:
The reason the phone bootlooped was because I was using old Odin, and needed the new Odin to flash Oreo. But my bootloader is set to 2, so I cannot flash the 1 increment files like the IUS mexico. Same problem with beachmiles except that I had the newer bootloader from the start.

All the S7 Exynos (Nougat) have the same bootloader, so it is possible to flash different region modems and not run into problems. Clearly, it's back to the old style with the S9, even those in the Exynos subforums say they can't flash different region CSC/modems.

If you enable this option,
google mtp will be changed to samsung mtp.

then TWRP can mtp copy files

you can test my friend modify S9 G9650 G9600 TWRP

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dKGfUGlNuKlcRU6fPDWqDnxhikeYmZ78?usp=sharing

There are 2 problems

1. The operation has a delay, especially after the lock screen.

2.The color is abnormal, it should be blue, but now it is yellow.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] travis82:
Done, you can compile and test it out. I will add a new build when my tester is back online since I do not have this device.

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] beachmiles:
Cool, did you use the standard issue magisk 16.0?

What CSC version are you running may I ask? Did you just flash the twrp and odin the patched boot.img? Did you wipe data in twrp before/after odin'ing the patched boot.img?

It would be nice to try and start putting some kind of mapping between CSCs and working procedures to get twrp/root/magisk/xposed loaded.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] Tostis:
This is what I did:

1) Enable Developer options

2) Enable OEM Unlock. Follows a mandatory hard reset

3) Run CROM

4) Flash TWRP (Odin 3.13+. AP Button)

5) Flashing Magisk v16 from TWRP does not work (signature verification failed error 21). So

5a) Open AP_G9650ZHU2ARC6_CL13087568_QB17462478_REV01_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta.tar.md5

5b) Extract boot.lz4

5c) Extract boot.img

5d) Launch Magisk Manager and patch boot.img to create patched_boot.img.tar

5e) Flash patched_boot.img.tar from Odin (AP Button). Follows a mandatory hard reset

5f) Flash again Magisk from Magisk Manager directly

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] partcyborg:
You dont seem to understand. The 965U isn't the only Snapdragon device made,. The SM-G9650 is also a Snapdragon soc device but it has a fully unlockable bootloader just like the exynos does.

It's getting more attention this year because a big part of central and South America were issued Snapdragon G9650 devices, so there are more owners on the board.

Also, they work perfectly fine on both cdma and gsm us networks, so if you actually want to do things like custom ROMs getting one instead is a no brainier
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] alex.do:
After getting lost reading 28 pages, I am so confused. Is the knox tripped by flashing TWRP? I think custom recovery will trip knox no matter what you do. How come it's not? Does this mean we can have TWRP + Magisk (systemless root) + Knox 0x0? Is Samsung Pay / Secure Folders still working? So wifi is broken? Meaning you cant have wifi with this kernel?

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] beachmiles:
No luck for me on the TPA or Hong Kong CSC/ I'm missing something.

I was using Magisk Manager 5.7.0 from here

https://github.com/topjohnwu/MagiskManager/releases

I was originally on the TPA CSC build so i tried to use the boot.img with Magisk Manager but magisk said it can't modify stock kernels (or something like that).

I tried on the Hong Kong extracted boot.img and got the same message.

In both cases I extracted with 7zip with a supposedly benign error but not sure about that.

I thought the Magisk Manager would just create the ODIN flashable patched boot.img but it looks like it tried something else because my TWRP was replaced with the stock recovery on the next reboot.

So now I am back in the 7 day RMM prenormal because I reOdined Twrp and attempted flashing the magisk manager.zip directly which flashed ok but caused bootloops. So I had to re flash the system to get back up.

I tried moving to the Hong Kong build but it didn't appear to support being a CDMA phone for my Verizon. I went back to the TPA build with ODIN and now I can't get CDMA voice working. Arg.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] jah2110:
This work for root sm-g9600?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] Tostis:
What is the exact error Magisk Manager gave you? I used v5.7.0 too. Note that lz4 compression is not supported by original 7zip file manager, you need a custom version or a different tool. Maybe Magisk Manager is complaining about a corrupted image file. Magisk Manager can't flash your recovery image because your phone is not yet rooted.

I successfully tested the procedure on a Hong Kong 9650.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] beachmiles:
Here is the magisk install error log

- Device platform: arm64-v8a

! Sony ELF64 format detected

! Stock kernel cannot be patched, please use a custom kernel

! Installation failed

So you're right, that 7zip warning/error was an actual error. I downloaded the "full" unofficial 7zip version with the lz4 codec and no errors! And a 6MB larger boot.img than before. Gotta love new ways to format things so nothing works!! Thanks and praise to this mcmilk fellow.

https://github.com/mcmilk/7-Zip-zstd/releases

And Holy F'ING SH*T the magisk manager patched the boot.img with no errors!!! THANKS for the tip. Will try to flash again after my next 7 day purgatory....

Has anyone had trouble selecting a preferred network type only to have the device decide for itself to switch to some other profile or go to Undefined? I previously had cdma voice/data service and LTE but after Odin'ing the same build my service state claims it is out of service but I get LTE data fine.

If I try to switch to the LTE/CDMA PRL for example it goes strait to just LTE only.

Hi, remember that this is an English forum, so if you write in Spanish you should as well put the translation in English.

If your phone has the bootloader unlockable ( I believe South American snapdragons are) then follow the instructions from the start of this thread, twrp and magisk should be what you need to get it rooted.

I am having terrible luck rooting this thing. I tried flashing the magisk 14 I created with magisk manager on my Panama TPA build but I got scared by the warning message that my system was modified and needed to reset. But it sort of sounded like that was ok after re reading a post by someone nice on this thread. Can anyone confirm that is ok to do after flashing magisk?

I thought I may need twrp with magisk so I flashed and then I got bootloops. then I tried the latest magisk beta through twrp and I got more bootloops and it looked like twrp couldn't mount any partitions.

So I tried odin'ing the Combination Rom but it stopped shortly after starting the flash with a red error text message saying something like an older or newer version of the software was not compatable. Wish I wrote it down but I needed to go to bed and needed a semi working phone so I flashed the Hong Kong version for another attempt with magisk in a week.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] travis82:
Please note that when you flash the combo firmware you have to also tick the re-partition box in odin. Also when you flash back stock firmware you must also check the re-partition box in odin. The system image sizes are different for Chinese and Hong Kong firmware due to Gapps being included in HK FW and in Chinese FW they are not included.

Did you ever solve this?

I've tried multiple CSCs and I've never been able to connect to any CDMA network, Japanese KDDI (in Japan now) or Verizon US when I was in the US.

Never even seen the ability to set it to work on CDMA.

*#*#4636#*#* does nothing, as well...

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] beachmiles:
Ya no luck for me, here. I am wondering if I need to repartition device in Odin with the TPA Panama build again to get it to work. before I would set it to GSm sometimes to get it to I initially connect to Verizon cdma somehow then I could use the normal Auto profile. this is very terrible in any case
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] duraaraa:
When you dial *#06# do you see a MEID, or only the IMEI?

I noticed that in anything but the Hong Kong builds, I see only my IMEI. In Hong Kong CSC I see the MEID as well, but still can't connect to CDMA.

From my experience any time I try to install anything with repartition selected, it fails like this:

<ID:0/034> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/034> Initialzation..
<ID:0/034> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/034> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/034> Can't open the specified file. (Line: 1892)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] beachmiles:
On the Hong Kong build I am seeing the IMEI and the MEID. I had it on my Panama build but after TWRP'ing flashing the Hong Kong build its like the Hong Kong somehow found a way to stay on my device even after re-ODIN'ing the entire Panama build. So I will try to re-partiton and see if that fixes it.
