[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Shemploo:
Hey there, finally got this to flash and boot up, had to try about 3 times. I saved the log of every step with brief notes when things went weird.

I was on partycyborg's Nougat ROM , version 1 of this ROM when he 1st released it, I was still on BL1 and all that old jazz.

If you're interested [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] , maybe this will help you analyze, or maybe you can just help me understand what went wrong/weird.

================

3. In BL slot in odin flash BL_ENG_BOOTLOADERS_G95*.tar
