[MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] can this be flashed over the CRC5 rom or does it need a stock rom to flash over? I was on your CRC5 rom and kept getting stuck at step 12, it would never reboot back into recovery. I did have xposed installed, not sure if that makes a difference. Thanks again

Adblockers don't work on YouTube.. they never have and never will... Adblockers only block ads in a web browser due to modifying a hosts file but even then, they don't block YouTube ads if you were to watch YouTube via web browser. If you want an ad free experience for YouTube, search XDA for "YouTube vanced" but this isn't the thread to ask about that sort of topic.

Did you download the 3Minit zips version that matches the ROM version? DSC1 and DSD3 have different SystemUI.apk's. It sounds like the 3minit version that you flashed mis-matched the installed ROM. You can recover those be flashing the uninstall 3Minit that is the

correct version to match the installed ROM version

from @jrkruse in the OP. The 3Minit zips are labeled with DSD3 or DSC1 to match the ROM version.

Hi @jrkruse. In the DSD3 tar there is a folder called INITIAL_INSTALL_FILES. Do each of these need to be uploaded with ODIN before installing SafeStrap?

I had that same issue. Apparently you need to flash one additional file when updating.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jtash01:
Hi @jrkruse

For some reason flashing the zips doesn't seem to be working in the new ROM. For example, flashing the Adaway_Blocking.zip shows success. However, after rebooting to Pie, the aps aren't visible. The same for my 3Minit mods. They show success during flashing, but not visible after rebooting to Pie. I checked the /system/app folder and the folders and files that should have been copied from the zip are not there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jtash01:
Found a solution:

Before selecting the zip to flash, go into the mount menu and check system to mount.

Then select the zip to flash.

When it is flashing there will be failed to unmount errors, but that's ok.

After rebooting to Pie, then the zip has been installed properly and the applied mod is working.

If you want to flash more than 1 zip, it is best to flash them one at a time. After flashing a zip, return to the mount menu and select system and data partitions again. The system will remain checked, but it seams to resolve the flashing issue.

odin fresh install of full stock DSC1 firmware restored those features( the fingerprint, safety net passes, but i decided to copy the entire contents to see how it resulted in a system thinking it was rooted but failing root check...

I may have found something interesting in there will elaborate when i figure out how to export it as elf or xml...edit out my private info and post it... may have stumbled on to a kernel exception resulting in temporary root and an administrator account showing up in my phone... TWRP code was not the cause...

stepping back through to safestrap install of pie mods under dsc1 see if any issues this go around or if i can reproduce limited root on it.

now back at safestrapped dsc1 all features working no root traces all is normal usqu5dsc1

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jtash01:

DSD5 is out for the 950U1 as of 4/24. Curious if there's any benefits, like extra features (antivirus, and other things that carriers diable)

Or, if they'll be disabled, since it's the sprint version of it. XAA is of course, not out yet. Would be tempted to flash it in safestrap
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] GuyInDogSuit:
Wait for jrkruse to release it. You have to flash updates via Odin anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Sleepsy:
I thought there was a way of flashing it in safestrap. By going into AP file, extracting the system.img.ext4 file, renaming it, and using that. I could be completely off base though. I haven't done it myself. Reading so many threads over the past few months, things have started to meld together.

Kind of like how a few weeks+ ago, I read somewhere about editing a system file, to be able to override the SSID/PW being broadcast on wifi hotspot. When I went to google how I can do it a 2nd time, I can't find it anywhere. Though if I'm completely off on that, it was probably a windows override, as I was messing around during the same time period.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] GuyInDogSuit:

Did you wipe data by chance after you installed it. If you did the problem is in the systemui apk but if you didn’t then it was probably a bad flash. You can usually tell when a zip doesn’t flash correctly as the system will not unmount. If you see that error or if you cannot manually unmount or remount system then reboot safestrap and try again. Also if one of the 3minit apps is missing especially the minit resources app. This will fc system ui and therefore make it go away. Themes installed can also cause problems so its best too uninstall them before flashing any system ui mod
