Any way to expand all notifications on lock screen? The exposed module from gravity box results in screen flashes till lock screen is disabled. Any solution?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] The-Accountant:
Did you do a dirty flash or clean? to answer your question, I am not getting any errors.

No worries, So far using the CSC provided by TEKHD, I have had any drop calls or lack of service. LTE Discovery app shows full bars. Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
I haven't done any flash yet. I'm still running the stock ROM that my new Note 8 upgraded to (8.0.0) shortly after initial power on. All of my questions here so far are to gather data as to how to proceed. TekHD provided an answer that will allow me to do Wi-Fi calling by emulating a T-Mobile phone.

I've decided to pull the trigger on Abraham's DeluxeROM, though, but I can't find the source files. He provides a place called "Sources" that lists DeluxeROMControl sources and DeluxeKernel sources. I'm not sure which one of these I need. Furthermore, I think these are source files, not .tar or .img files. What I want is a .tar or .img file that I can install using TWRP. Afterward, I'll check out TechHD's T-Mobile file.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] The-Accountant:
Here is the link to download his rom.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Jk3-cXDmj7r7XWycBpCAYKn5FKMygxmS/view

1. Flash rom in twrp and the let the phone boot up.

2. Flash TEKHD CSC Denator.

3. Flash Magisk or Superuser

Enjoy.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Where Is CSC Detonator?

TYVM for providing me with this link. I guess my immediate question is why couldn't I find the link? I looked everywhere and saw nothing.

On the same note (8), I also tried finding the exact file to download for TEKHD CSC Detonator. I couldn't find it either. I clicked on HERE and it kept taking me in a circular path, never getting to it. Furthermore TEKHD's website I think is under construction, because he says on it he's relocating files. Perhaps this has something to do with the circulator path. Do you have a direct link for his latest, working CSC Detonator?

Again, TYVM for providing me with the DeluxeROM file link. I just downloaded it and it's 3.05 GB big. That's the biggest custom ROM I've ever downloaded!

I suppose DeluxeROM is very stable, so all developers are now rushing to develope a custom ROM out of the newly announced Android Pie 9.x.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] The-Accountant:
Sometimes you gotta be patient. I know when it come to new rom and something as great as Deluxe, one just cant wait.

Here is the link the CSC.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Man, as Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro said two days ago, you guys are the bomb!

Thank you so much, Accountant. I think I have a clear path now to install DeluxeROM on my SM-N950F and then turn it into a T-Mobile hot shot phone, with Wi-Fi calling and all! Also, thank you very much, AbrahamGC, for cranking out what I believe is a complex project, based on its 3 GB size. I'll find out soon how good it is, and I hope to be bragging about it right here in this forum!

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

I hate to keep bothering you, Accountant, but I'm being asked by the DeluxeROM installer to select a CSC. I don't even know what a CSC is. What do you suggest? I'm using mintsim, which uses T-Mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] yoyopfk:
Can You send an link where did You downloaded Viper4Android for N8, please?

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
I just experienced this error. I got a link from Accountant for a file called:

DETONATOR_S9x_OREO_TMO_EFS_CSC_v3_INT_TEKH

and I experienced an error. As it was installing, in red TWRP said:

Updater process ended with EROR: 1

Error installing zip file 'external_sd/Download/

DETONATOR_S9x_OREO_TMO_EFS-CSC_v3_INT_TEKHD.zip'

Then it said:

Updating partition details...

...done

Now the way I see it is this. First, Accountant gave me the link to the S9x file, not the Note 8 file. The reason I asked him for the link is because I couldn't find the file in TEKHD's website. When I clicked on what I thought was the link, it took me back to the same page. I was in a loop. So my first question is "where is the file link to TEKHD's DETONATOR for T-Mobile features?

Second, I noticed the file's name above has "EFS-CSC" in it. I set it to AFR, which was what the phone originally came with. I bought it new on ebay, and the first time I powered up it said it was in the United Arab Emirates. I went back to wipe and install. When I got to the Slect your CSC, there was no EFS CSC, so that's not it. I guess Accountant gave me the wrong file, i.e. for the S9x, not the Note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] michel5891:
What I did was go to settings and, apps and then allow unknown apps and look for messages and stop app and allow them
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Thanks for your reply. I did go to Settings -> Apps, but I didn't see anything to allow unknown apps. I saw a list of apps for individual settings, and I touched the three dots at the top right corner to bring up the following menu:

Sort by size

Default apps

App permissions

Show system apps

Special access

Reset app preferences

In Special access, I saw Install unknown apps, but it was just a list of five apps that had "Allowed" under them, i.e. "Allow from this source" was turned on. There was nothing about new apps receiving permissions.

I've got DeluxeROM working purdy good. It's just this one TEKHD T-Mo function that I need to allow me to make Wi-Fi calls through my MVNO, mintsim. If I can get this working, I'll be in like Larry Flynt. Then I can install Magisk to root the phone and get back SafetyNet so I can use Google Pay. I'm impressed with my Note 8. I just need to tweak it.

I was too fast in my reply ... sorry about that. I meant that Magisk 16.7 passes safety net on Deluxe 8.1 ... I've now upgraded to Version 8.2 and I have the same problem with no pass on safetynet - Magisk is working, but I cannot pass safetynet.

DeluxeROM v8.2 SafetyNet Problem?

Is everyone saying that v8.2 broke SafetyNet? I haven't gotten that far, because I'm waiting for TEKHD to tell me if I really do need IMS app to install his N8 Detonator so I can get WiFi Calling on TMO. I've heard not to install Magisk to root and pass SafetyNet, so this is why I don't know. DeluxeROM v8.2 appears to be running just fine otherwise. It's a really nice problem if the kinks get worked out.

Also, do we need to flash v8.2 entirely, or can we do a sideload, thus avoiding setting everything up all over again?

Hello Xda!

Sorry for my ignorance, but better to ask than making some stupid mistake.

I have Note 8 SM-N950F frp locked (Android 8.0 )

I had a similar issue with my A5 and frp lock was solved flashing with original firmware and original ROM.

Can I install This custom ROM or I need first to sort out drk issue?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Where is v8.2?

Go back to the very first post, and you will see it there. Skip down about 1/3 of the way, and you will see the following:

Installation and download :

-- Download the ROM and push to phone. DRIVE - MEGA - AFH

-- Wipe data/system/cache.

-- Install the ROM, then wait 5 minutes and done!

Click on DRIVE, MEGA or AFH and follow the above directions. I'd do a clean flash, though.

According to AbrahamGC, the author of DeluxeROM, his post 885 says it's available again for download. He took it down to investigate the SafetyNet issue, but found nothing substantial because it is Magisk related, not ROM related. Post 885 says to wait for the next stable release of Magisk.

[MENTION=7393522]AbrahamGC[/MENTION] what is repaired in the rom, why was it raised again?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
I've installed the original v8.2 and have a minor problem. I have a Samsung SM-N950F that I use with my mintsim MVNO (https://www.mintmobile.com/), which in turn uses T-Mobile as its bandwidth provider. Now mintsim provides an FAQ on their website called Set Up Your MMS and Data For Android. In that FAQ, it tells me to go to Settings -> Connections -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names.

DeluxeROM comes with a bunch of APNs, one of which is T-Mobile US LTE. That one was the default setting, apparently because the mintsim SIM card told it so. But the mintsim FAQ tells me to set up a whole new APN and call it Ultra. It also tells me to change some of the parameters, of which one of the most important is the MMSC (http://wholesale.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc). I then save it and select it as the phone's APN. Everything cool until about 2 hours later, when the phone reverts back to the T-Mobile US LTE APN. It does this consistently. What do I do to make mintsim's Ultra APN setting stick?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] zoltrix:
have you tried deleting all the APNs and only keeping the one you want?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Sho nuff, Tdot. I deleted about 10 APNs but kept two - T-Mobile US LTE and Ultra. I've made several calls and sent/received several texts, and it hasn't changed for a couple of hours. I'll check it in the morning again. If it reverts back to T-Mobile US LTE, I'll post again. Thx for the suggestion!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
I like to take smaller tests in order to gather more information. This morning I woke up and it's still on Ultra, even those T-Mobile US LTE is one of two APNs. I'll test it for a while to see what happens in that configuration. If it stays Ultra, I'll leave it there. If it doesn't, I'll delete it.

What's the difference between DeluxeROM and DeluxeKernel?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
well one is a rom and the other a kernel!?

rom being the operating system and the kernel is the subsystem "middleman" interacting between OS and hardware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
That makes sense, but why would anyone want to install a custom kernel? We install ROMs day in and day out, but I've never heard of anyone installing kernels until now. What problems do kernel installs solve that ROMs don't and do kernels have to jive with compatible ROMs? Would someone, for example, install a kernel into a smartphone that has a stock ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
kernels are probably flashed more often than roms. they can change performance and can offer better battery life.

there are mainy 2 types: one for stock (touchwiz) this pretty much all the roms in this thread and aosp kernels. you cant mix between the two. but anyways aosp development for the note 8 is pretty weak. to tell the truth, stock development is not all that what it once was either. guess regular galaxy S line of phones are more popular. i remember the days of the sgs2,3 and 4 there were latterly tons of roms for both variants. samsung is making it harder for the devs though. sources are released much later. snapdragon is harder to root nowadays...etc but that's an other thing the US carriers basically all have snapdragons now so development is split between those and exynos models. So that doesn't help either.

anyways surprised you've not heard about kernels earlier...check the forum section's title..its roms, kernels and other developments
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Bud Horn:
And now we're talking kernels in here ... I'm on the kernel that ships with Deluxe Rom ... but I'd like to know if anyone have experience with kernels that offer optimum battery-life :).

Thx in advance, guys.

\Bud
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Sean_FD2R:
This often been asked..which kernel offer the best..battery, performance etc.

You gotta to try it out yourself and find the best match as every phones are being setup and use differently.

I could find a particular kernel suits me best but may not for you.

Sent from N950F/DS Phantom Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Well, from my end, it's not surprising since I'm just a layperson. I came from the Nexus 6 line where they didn't differentiate between ROMS and kernels. When I was looking for a replacement, I finally decided on the Note 8 and quickly found out that the Snapdragon side wasn't worth messing with, while the Exynos side was. I thought that was rather odd until I figured out it's the carriers playing games. It must be tough for Samsung to support one product with two processors.

I've always known Samsung to have superior hardware but too much bloatware, so I decided on the Exynos Note 8 and bought a 950F/FD Duos, which offered the most bands other than the UK version, which I couldn't find. Then upon looking for ROMs, I stumbled across DeluxeROM, which had "KERNEL" in its title. I thought it odd but didn't pay much attention to it until now. Thanks for the more detailed explanation.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
nexus phones are stock 'google'. so its closer to AOSP but not quite. so there were probably two variants too. now depending on which company did the nexus that particular year, there might have been an impact on development as well.

regarding note phone types, aren't all exynos' all the same when it comes to bands? i acctualy bought the korean N950N and even if it is different from the F of DS i think i remember reading it having the exact same capabilities. I could be mistaken though.

regarding the forum section, i really don't mean this thread, back up one section and you will see what i mean. you can actually go DL some kernels and see the differences for your self. Just be sure when you do, to flash root after(whether it may be Magisk or SU) kernels will remove the rom's root method when flashing. there are actually some kernels that have root integrated to their setup:

mad max kernel for the note 8 for example comes in regular and advanced versions. often praised, his kernel is not on xda but a google search would yield some results pointing to ambasadii's rom site/forum. Magisk comes as the default root method with his kernel.

now magisk, there is an other area of fun apart from just being root.

Xposed, again more fun.

how can Apple users live with them selves. Basicaly, they pay 1k $ for a pre-briked phone. ahaha

ok so enough thread deviation.

Deluxrom is beating Ironman rom now. At the beginning it had lest feature but the more versions are done, more features are added.

Good job Abraham
