Besides keeping wifi calling, and VoLTE, can you keep samsung pay also?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] gq3856:
Thanks but I do not have that option in the developer options.

I would recommend going to this ROM. I think Draco is taking a break for a while.

Not in the developer setting in the phone or camera app. In the phone settings developer mode. "Force allow apps to external."
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] gq3856:
Thanks

I changed the settings but now my camera is freezing up and not taking photos.

Don't know what I am doing wrong
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dd805bb:
Clear the cache and data for the camera app. That may work. My camera was finicky the first few times opening it, and opening from other apps. But works great now. Way better than the stock Samsung camera.

Get an activities launcher app. You can access it that way in the phone app. I found a bunch of activities not able to access via app. There a WiFi calling option. I am using one called "applications info" on Google play. Works great. I can also access all the easter eggs, any options still left in the phone. Also you can use *#*#4636#*#* in the phone dialer. Like a real android. Not the Samsung phone app b s. You can change your bands to suit your needs. WiFi calling is there too in device info.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] gq3856:
OK cleared data and cache and camera is working.

Also. Checked force write in developer option.

Camera is working but pics are not stored to SD.

Any other ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Aurlieus:
If I disable VoLTE & WiFi calling on device info, when I exit out of it and re-open, it stays enabled.

I have to say great job on the mod. I love Samsung phones I can Samsung apps shoved down my throat like a religion. i'm a Google guy all the way especially for Google assistant and other aps. I have an s8 on Oreo which I put your ROM on seems to be working great. by the way I'm Canadian so is a g950w at least it was. I haven't fully tested it yet but I don't think I'll need to update the CSC anyway I'm just happy to not have Facebook in my face instagram,samsung this Samsung that... I'm probably preaching to the choir. I also have an s8+ which I kept nougat because I wanted it for rooted through partcyborg. obviously The Best of Both Worlds would be a rooted Oreo with you rom. Anyway keep doing what you're doing. It's more. somehow we got to get ahold of an engineer at Qualcomm and blackmail him into giving us the unlock flash for the bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Gregbmil1:
Anyone have any luck getting slow motion to work? The camera works great except when I tap the Slow Motion option. It instantly freezes for about 5-7 seconds then crashed to the home screen. I'm on a G950U Snapdragon with the wonderful Partcyborg root

Does this work if the phone has already updated to Oreo with the OTA updated?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Reechings:
Depends if you're still on bootloader 2 (it will work but may need data wipe) or bootloader 3 (you're stuck on stock from now on)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] agentfusion:
Is there a way to add back in the Samsung camera? I don't know what everyone's obsession is with Google camera, but it lacks some really useful features if you actually want to take advantage of the camera hardware of the s8. "Pro mode" in the Samsung camera has options for manual ISO and shutter speed adjustment, which I use quite a lot.

If the Samsung camera cannot be installed manually on this build, it's not the end of the world, since there's always Camera FV-5 and Cinema FV-5 but installing two apps just to get back some of the features of the stock camera seems really inefficient.

Can someone help me?

Every time after flashing BL.tar and CP.tar, I got stuck in UPLOAD MODE. And it says KERNEL PANIC!

I couldn't go into recovery mode from there. I went to download mode and continued to flash CSC.tar, then it rebooted into recovery mode. I followed the steps: format data and it then kept bootlooping.

Is there any way I could replace the normal emoji with iPhone ones? That's the only thing keeping me from using this [emoji28]
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] agentfusion:
Are you using a usb 3.0 port? If you're not sure, look at the port itself, if the piece that holds the pins of your computer's USB port is white, then it's USB 2.0 but if it's blue that means it's 3.0 which supposedly causes problems when flashing. No idea why, but that's what I've heard. If you have a 2.0 port available, try using that instead.

I'm, unfortunately, not able to try flashing any ROMs myself because 1) I only have USB 3.0 ports and 2) the only operating systems on my computer are macOS and Ubuntu Linux so I can't run any of these required modified ODIN programs, only Heimdall (an open source port) and I'm not too keen on risking turning my phone into a brick to test if Heimdall does the trick.

What apps do you want to use them with? If you're wanting to use them with sms, get Textra and install the iPhone emoji pack (both free), for other apps i dunno what to tell you except to look for third party clients that support alternate emojis.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] tele_jas:
This is an Oreo ROM.... It flashes the complete, modded, Android 8.0 system on your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] yanbanan980:
And I can flash my stock rom to go back to nougat?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] tele_jas:
Not quite that easy...

This includes the Oreo Bootloader..... If you follow the instructions, it'll walk you through step-by-step, and you'll have this ROM up and running.

To go back, you'll need to have the correct (Nougat) Bootloader ......(which you can find it all on here, somewhere)....As well as the correct version of Odin. Then you'd follow the steps and flash back to Nougat.

Be sure you read everything in the Original post before flashing this ROM.....The Stock Samsung camera does NOT work. There are many other cameras that do work, but they aren't as crisp or sharp looking IMO. I use my camera A LOT, so that's why I went back to stock Oreo.

You have the US variant of the S8, so you cannot unlock the bootloader, but you can still flash this rom without having the BL unlocked, as this rom is a modified stock rom.

Can't stop OTA updates :(

I asked about this issue a few months back but didn't get a response. Is there a way to stop OTA updates from trying to install themselves? This happens every week or two, and the only thing I can do is defer it a couple times before the phone tries to install it on its own, which then obviously fails. In the Developer options, I have the Auto update system switch turned off - but the updates keep coming. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] optodata:
Anybody????
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] HighOnLinux:

Many thanks for your response! I hadn't tried that before, but I've just reflashed everything from the beginning and am reconfiguring all my apps. So far everything is working again and I'll see in a couple of weeks if the OTA issue has been solved.

Other than this one issue, I've been really happy with this ROM :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] HighOnLinux:
If it still decides to show up, i believe you could use adb as an advantage and uninstall the package that's giving you that constant toast notification

Can't stop OTA updates :(

Unfortunately it's still happening. I'm not sure I can uninstall that part of the OS with adb. I came from Windows Phone so I don't have any experience with this.

If you or anyone else knows if adb can remove the OTA functionality, I'd really appreciate a quick overview.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] radhazx:
I had a oneplus one and enjoyed the phone a lot. Their customer service was lacking, but if you could get past that then it was probably the best bang for buck phone of its generation.

I looked at oneplus when I got my s8 and sadly it wasn't as competitive so I chose the S8 since it had a promotion that made it cheaper than the oneplus.

I'm not a brand loyalist, I'll go wherever the most cost effective deal is when I'm on the market but this experience with Samsung has definitely left a bad taste in my mouth with them.

I believe somewhere in this now 27 page thread it was said this was "Odin" only. I too had only used TWRP in the past and was unfamiliar with Odin but it's not that difficult. I watched the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbTpS6gfo3E to make sure I was using it right though if it helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] rajeshca911:
Bro ur saying it in wrong thread ..

at beginning of post itself saying that it is for SNAPDRAGON only.

Youtube you have watched and you have been followed was an exynos version which is g950f . Our models means G950U, G950U1, G950W are snapdragon models and at present we dont have any TWRP or CMW recoveries

we can only flash ROMs using odin only i.e. modified Odin
[Samsung Galaxy S8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] radhazx:
No, I had to doublecheck but I'm in the right thread.

The post I responded to said they were unfamiliar with Odin, so I linked the video that I used to familiarize myself with Odin and I also told them that I read in the thread that this rom is Odin only.
