Finally got around to try and update, but none of the BL files are flashing in Odin. Im on CRD4 right now. I did not wanna flash anything else for fear of it causing issues and needing a full wipe. Is it because I'm on V3 bootloader? Odin tries to setup connection but then fails to flash anything. My phone does show up on the devices list.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
If you are on v3 bootloaders there us no reason not to update to v4 and flash cre9 that's in the OP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] epicboy:
Well I'm trying to update, i just don't want to lose any data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
If you are stock oreo there is no way to avoid wiping data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] epicboy:
I am on your previous SAMFAIL CRD4, trying to do the first step to flash the engineering bootloader isn't even working.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] unitz0mbie:
your bootloader is not the same tho
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] epicboy:
Then what do i have to do to update it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Did you download the stuff in the OP. You didn't try and use stuff you already had did you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] josezr:
I update from V2 (2CRC5) to New V4 (4CRE9) I just lost

Xposed zip and Google apps , but I flash both in safetrap

And I have all my data now.

Just don't forget on the step 18 flash CSC_ADD_CACHE_IMG_WIPE_CACHE.tar to preserve data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] epicboy:
turns out there was an issue with my usb cable :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Man I'm glad you were able to narrow it down too the cable. I dont know why sometimes a cable will work fine for everything else but fail with Odin
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] epicboy:
I've used the same cable to flash on my laptop, but the desktop needed a different cable lol. Very finicky

Hi,

Have been using this ROM for some time now and love it. Last couple of weeks sometimes I of the video calling apps like Duo or Skype doesn't provide enough volume from speaker. Speaker volume is fine when calling via phone, just other apps. Had anyone had this issue. I tried reinstalling the ROM with data reset, still not fixed. Any suggestion before I try data wipe?

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] adj998:
If the stock EQ settings don't help, download precise volume from the Play Store it has a volume booster, I've been using it and it works great
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] SamGuy2020:
Backing up data on the wifes s8 right now. We're going camping tomorrow but fortunately I still have one week left at my job which enabled me a ton of free time to do all these mods so I'll install this first thing 3am on Monday. Wife is using my S7 right now.

I'm so excited, the S8 is still on CRB9 with v2 bootloader. Stupid ota that gave me bootloop was forced to factory reset. So thankful that i was able to anticipate bootloader updates by simply using adhell and my samsung sdk license (expires tomorrow) to simply disable software packages. I will use the debloat script to just remove it altogether when i install this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] pimpdaddy00:
I'm switching to a note 8 because my gf broke her phone and she's getting my phone, is there any rom like this for the note 8?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
Can anyone confirm with certainty if V5 bootloader patched SamFail? I mindlessly installed CRF5 after it said an update was available then realized it upgraded the bl version. I would really like to use this ROM if it's still possible, also odin files have been released for CRF5.

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528047217
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Yes but combo firmware for s8+ has not been released so there is no way too test but it's probably a good bet your flashing samfail images are over but time will tell
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
I pinged you yesterday with the file...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
I have been phoneless for a couple of days. Thanks I'll check it out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
If you want to try here is V5 eng bootloader just flash in odin reboot back to download and try and flash the AP file from my CRE9 firmware if it seams to flash and fail and very end and reboots phone then we are back in business. If it does this just reflash stock firmware for now dont try and flash the rest of the samfail stuff as it is v4. If it fails to flash right away then the party is over
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
Okay, so I flashed your V5 eng bootloader, which succeeded, I rebooted back to download mode, flashed the AP file from CRE9 firmware, it took a couple of minutes to flash and failed at the very last part. It didn't reboot by itself afterwards, I had to boot the phone myself, and now it is at Software Update Failed screen.

https://i.imgur.com/KbHZnDH.png

I'm guessing this is good news? As it didn't fail immediately when flashing CRE9 AP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Yes it is
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
The phone didn't power off at end of flash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
It did power off at end of flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Ok cool it looks like v6 s8+ is not patched. I'll be making some v5 stuff tonight
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
I'll upload the v5 files minus the AP file if you want to try full flash you will just have to use the AP file from cre9. The one you just flashed until I can make a new crf5 system.img

Edit: here you go

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
Yeah you can do that, however, I have to head out in a bit and will be back in a couple of hours so I won't be able to test until then.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Here you go

Samsung must be full of a bunch of ****ing programmer monkeys or some ****... like how do you fail so bad as to attempt to patch an exploit not once, or twice, NOT EVEN 3 TIMES! But fail yet AGAIN a 4th time! THAT is just SAD!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
Worked like a charm, thanks for the files. Haven't tried flashing XPosed yet, will get back to you after all my apps have been restored.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
I am uploading the full samfail firmware with crf5 system.img
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
Okay cool, do I just flash the new AP and I should be good? Or any other steps I must do? Also XPosed is working fine. On a side note, do you know how to fix Samsung Health root error, all the guides are saying to edit build.prop, but I need to be rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
If you use gravity box and firefds oreo toolkit Samsung health will work

CRF5 with V5 bootloaders for SM-G955U only is up in the OP

If you download from Google Drive It may say

G955USQU4CRF5_ODIN_SAMFAIL.zip

instead of

G955USQU5CRF5_ODIN_SAMFAIL.zip

but it is indeed V5 bootloaders
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] GuyInDogSuit:
Any new additions, other than security updates?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Some of the carriers csc features.xml had changed a little bit so I updated those
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
The problem was because I was on CRE9 build, after updating, all of the Samsung apps which rely on Knox started working except Samsung Pass, it still says that my phone is rooted, none of the apps you stated are working either. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
Samsung pass will not work just fyi and ime
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Samsung pass don't work with xposed installed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] TheGoddessInari:
Uh oh, was CRF5 tested much before getting pushed? It's suddenly getting USB malfunctions, slow charging, and usually doesn't show up at all in Odin anymore in Download mode. After an update from CRE9.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
Haven't had any of those problems. Check your cable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] TheGoddessInari:
Tried 7 different USB-C cables and 12 different USB ports.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
I'm having the same issues with Odin. You just have to wait for Odin too connect sometimes it takes 30 seconds or so. I also notice every time you plug into computer you have to allow access to data. However charging seems fine
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] gq3856:
Thanks for the info I have been running an older version on my S8 and was about to install xposed.

Didn't realize I would lost Samsung pay.

If I decide to do it will I still have access to Google Pay.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
SPay still works dude
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] unitz0mbie:
Would you say CRF5 is overall a better build than CRE9? and would you recommend updating? i just installed cre9 i couple of days ago i dont wanna lose my data lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
You wont lose your data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] aroy97:
I just reinstalled the driver under Device Manager and it was recognized again in Odin. Haven't experienced slow charging though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
Anyone have any flashable zips that we haven't tried yet? I'm curious just how much we can really do with what we have. I have:

Googlify zip
Xposed fw
Google fonts and emojis
Xposed edge
URPI(Remote play enabler for PS4)

And that's about it... So I am just wondering if anyone has tried anything else or what so TIA I look forward to the new mods/apps etc [emoji1]

Problem is that people on the modded system cannot flash update otas, well if you could things would break, such as....actually being able to boot into system.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] eddiemc12:
With CRF5 odin filles available it's easy to jump back and forth if someone want's to test an OTA to see if new features are included.

Plz remove link and link to my thread, I count downloads.

Flashable zip coming soon. Just need to write script to combine safestrap and flashfire installer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
Done. Sorry...I just wanted to help people update I didn't think about that...

Also, we're getting flash fire on no root systems? That's amazing! Again thank you so much for your work!

Flashfire need root. For people on 7.0 or 7.1.1

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] SamGuy2020:
Does it particularity matter what firmware I use for a base? I have a factory unlocked XAA S8 and my carrier doesn't offer any features to android users

I'm just wondering because you mentioned to me before when I installed this one my S7 that T-Mobile firmware is best for battery life and if it is the same for the S8? Could I just flash v2 csc(or do i need all four odin files?) from tmobile then after it installs in recovery and i reboot to download mode could i continue on step 3 on the install instructions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
What is the current build number that you're on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] SamGuy2020:
I was on G950U1UEU2CRB9 (thankfully i disabled OTA's with adhell before i gave the S8 to my wife lol) I already installed OP's latest ROM and I just want to know because I've already started my mod journey mainly S9 apps but i just deodoxed services.jar and ran it through Smali Patcher to disable secure flash, package verifier and patch mock locations. i will repack it into another .zip ofc but i just want to know so i dont get too far ahead and have to re-do everything lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] afaneh92:
Flashable zip is up, test and report back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
i just looked inside your zip and there a duplicate folders that make no sense and would probably throw errors because they're empty.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
Added zips to update safestrap to the latest version in post 2 if you downloaded from the safestrap thread you may want to flash these zips as my update has it boot directly too safestrap after you follow the procedure. The zip from the safestap page will boot safestrap to a splash screen which you then have to manually enter it which is worthless to us since if you don't enter you phone will not boot up anyways without follow the procedure.

Dolby Atmos Mods are in post 2 there are 2 zips you have to flash. There is the soundalive zip choose which one in main thread it says 8021 both speaker and headphones work and 8063 it says only headphones work so you will just have to try

So you flash SoundAlive zip first then right after flash the Dolby Installer zip if you want to change between sound alive apps once once dolby installer zip is installed just flash the soundalive zip
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
Oh I see the version number changed, anything new or just signifying it's your edit?

Ps with your permission I will post this to Reddit :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jrkruse:
I would reflash installer and maybe try the 8021 sound alive in post 2 it says headphone and speaker works with this one and the installer supposed to boost up the volume a little so I would reflash. The guy told me I could do what I wanted with the mod so you can post where ever I dont care

Feedback (Sprint G950U/Xposed not installled)

I've been on CRC5 for like 2 weeks & so far zero issues from my type of usage, installation process worked perfect just like the last version, same with Safestrap which I've never used on a non-rooted S8 (I did use it on PartyCyborg Rom, but as we all know its much easier on a rooted device). I also flashed Dolby in the process, it shows up, but I'm not sure if it actually affected my sound quality or not (on headphones), but I'm still testing it so I will edit to report on any changes. I haven't flashed xposed because I honestly haven't had any reason to use it since Substatum has all the UI tweaks I use, so I can't speak on that for us sprint users. Anyways, I just wanted to give a quick feedback before work, I appreciate all the personal time & effort put into this. If any more testers is needed, I'm always online & reading the comments, I just don't say much unless I have a rom-sided issue or just feedback. Again, great work on this & *generally speaking* to whoever flashing this for the first time, please read & follow the OP instructions carefully, I switch from this & PartyCyborgs from time to time & both instructions works flawlessly every time.

I hope you all have a good day/night :)

I have a quick question, I'm using an S8 (G950U) on a quite old version of this rom (CRC5). I never felt the need to update but I'm behind on security patches and now want to update. Is there anyway to update directly to CRE9 without losing any data? If not can I backup my data on my current version with safestrap, update and then restore?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] SamGuy2020:
Cool miscellaneous thing... So apparently if you are in safestrap you can use a Dex station to use an external keyboard and mouse, I obviously wasn't able to to deplay the Dex station desktop to an external screen.... maybe mirrorlinking could be possible idk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] pimpdaddy00:
Yes you can do a data backup in safestrap, I personally only backup system and data, that's all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
Yep just use wipe cache instead of wipe data when flashing CSC, you can also reflash all your zips after.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] adj998:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jal3223:
So in the instructions for version 2 it states to flash "CSC_ADD_CACHE_IMG_WIPE_DATA.tar" yet the file doesn't exist in the zip. All I see is "CSC_ADD_CACHE_IMG.tar" and "CSC_DELETE_CACHE.tar". Which file wipes the data?? [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION]

I am curious though, I see that native call recording is enabled, but has anyone been able to get native screen recording working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
No need to go back to cyborgs ROM, Jr offers a V5 Root nougat ROM. But if you really need to stay on V2, download JRs last V2 files then only flash the CRF5 AP image.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jal3223:
Awesome! I don't know how I missed that! I guess I will update then. Thank you for the help by the way!

So just curious though, If I wanted to stay on V2 bootloader for now, would I have any issues just using the latest AP image file from the rooted section? When I use the rooted version's files that is. [MENTION=7263822]FatalONEM8[/MENTION]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
You shouldn't run into any problems I don't think. What do you mean the rooted section? BRB1? You need the ENG bootloader flashed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Josephigloe:
Reminds me of the old days using safestrap..lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] jal3223:
I think I'm just going to go ahead and update to V4 or V5 just so I don't run into any issues. I looked around to see if the later updates are any less stable than V2 and I couldn't find anything. To be honest, that's why I was wanting to stay on V2. It seems as though there has only been improvements. Thank you for your help though.

I am coming from partcyborg rom S8 950U1 and backed up data with safestrap. I tried to restore with safestrap after flashing CRE9. stuck at safestrap says will reboot in 5 seconds, should force reboot to download mode ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] FatalONEM8:
You can't restore nougat data from a rooted ROM, it just will not work. If I'm wrong then good luck not running into much more serious issues.

What's the issue, Samsung apps not working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Josephigloe:
Issue was when you hit the power button to turn it on it would just flash off and on off and on, you would have to reboot and wait for the screen to come on and hurry up and press the reset button then upon bootup you would be able to use your phone again but if you would set your phone down you would have to do the steps all over again to use your phone.

Last night my phone text my sister like 100 times over and over the same text from 4th of july.

Couldn't delete texts.

I just disabled xposed and everything was good again.
