in networking, voice over network has quality settings called Quality Of Service. often when implementing Voip in a company, QOS has to be adjusted so that calls sound clear and not affected buy network congestion or simple data usage in the same subnet. it prioritizes voice packets over regular data packets. I have such features in my wifi router. you can also prioritize packets for all sorts of services or whole machines. Hard core gamers like this for enabling then to lower latencies while gaming. Not saying that this is your issue but it is a big concern for voice over IP in enterprises...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
My biggest problem right now is connecting Odin to my Note 8 and getting it into Recovery mode. I haven't tried yet, because I've had other chores to do, but I need to get my phone back online ASAP; otherwise, I'm potentially losing phone calls, voicemails and text messages. I've pushed the VOL DWN, Bixby and PWR buttons simultaneously and have gotten it into the green Download mode, but I haven't tried connecting to it via Knox yet.

I've decided to restore it back to before I installed the CSC Selection .zip file to see if they are battling it out. If that doesn't solve the problem, then I'll conclude that DETONATOR won't work properly without the phone having IMS Settings. I'll try installing CSC Selection or DETONATOR again to see what happens. If neither one works, then I'll think about going to Iron Man. I sure hate to do that for two reasons. One is DeluxeROM is purdy good and two is I've heard TKKG has quit supporting Iron Man. He also doesn't provide clear instructions on how to load files. Abraham has much better documentation about what DeluxeROM is and how to load it.

Edit: I just located Odin on my computer and fired it up. It is only for flashing files. It isn't for making the Note 8 go into Recovery mode. I think adb is for that. I'll look for it but if anyone has any bright ideas on how to get it into Recovery mode, I'm all ears.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
you dont need to odin back since you have twrp alredy.

concerning install method, all roms are the same: you wipe via wipe menu in twrp and flash rom.

again i suspect that you never formatted data and installed the dm verify integrity zip. also your twrp should have been one of the newer builds out there. check the 10 last posts on either of the twrp threads for link to the latest ones.

odin flashable twrp:

https://github.com/zeroblade1984/sa...WRP_OREO_UPD/oreo-twrp-greatlte-2018.6.10.tar

OR

twrp updatable image(flash using image button in twrp)

***EDIT: above links a now deprecated, please use:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-8/development/recovery-galaxy-note-8-t3832962

in latest twrp(after flashing using either of the above) format data and flash this:

https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip

reboot into recovery, do a full wipe and flash a custom rom,

reboit back to twrp and flash either TKKG csc pack or tekhd tmo detonator.

if you follow these steps there is absolutely no reasons not to have wifi calling.

*if you have trouble getting into twrp just continually hold vol up bixby and power as long as it takes till you get in there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
That's just it - I can't get into TWRP by holding the VOL UP, Bixby and PWR buttons. The only way to get out of the boot loop is to hold the VOL DWN, Bixby and PWR buttons. It takes me into the green screen where I can download files using Odin. I just fired up Odin and realized I can make my Note 8 go into Recovery mode. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
your not holding it long enough.(it should eventually enter recovery) i am fast enough to hold power and vol down to force reboot and switch quickly to vol up bixby and power...

your bootloader is looping and not fully rebooting the phone. it looks like it does but it dosent. ..

annother user had this issue in annother thread but he didint realize that he was stuck in a soft bootloop.

ive also had this but it was very apparent what was happening.

so hold vol down and power till you see it go black and see the flash of the blue light , then swap top the recovery button position

edit

an other way is to go to DL mode and then quit it by selecting vol down then quickly switch to the recovery button position as fast as possible

but to tell you the truth, might as well take the opportunity to cleanly flash twrp again following the steps/files i gave earlier.

** backup the twrp folder on your computer defore you format data as it will be deleted when you format data. restore it after to get access back to your backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
And if it still dosent work then:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Okay, I'm back to a clean wipe and DeluxeROM v8.2 via TWRP. You were correct in that going to DL mode and being very fast, I got into TWRP. I know I have several restores taking me back to several configs, but I decided to do a clean wipe and install DeluxeROM v8.2 again. It's getting late here, so I'm going to go to bed with the phone and piddle with it some, but I'm not going to do any of your suggestions until tomorrow.

BTW, my TWRP version is 3.1.1-0. I'm not sure what the latest TWRP is, but I'll check tomorrow. I surely do appreciate your staying with me on this one, especially since I almost shiite in my pants earlier.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
*that version is old and will cause issues with internal data(was made for nougat and is no good for oreo). all your issues and weird stuff might be a result of that. once you get the time to properly install the new twrp and FORMAT data then flash dmverityzip and other steps as specified before. you will then have a fully accessible device. but be warned to save your backups to computer or external sd card if not done already. as stated before, if you dont flash the wrong bootloader, you cant screw up, its as simple as that. you will always be able to work your way out of any issues.

* was your phone originally on stock oreo? if not then you would need to update to latest cp(modem) and bl(bootloader) to latest stock oreo but i guess that's an other thing for an other day, my suggestions were all pointed towards thinking you were on oreo bootloader and such. so figure that out before doing anything because you will be turning around in circles if that requirement is not met and may end up with strange bootloops.(sounds familiar...)

on my part, there is nothing left for me to say or suggest that was not said before if you WERE on oreo all along.

anyways, good luck

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Logel:
Simple flash v8.2 to dirty flash it over v8.1, or also wipe data and cache to make a full wipe installation.

Edit:

Also into the aroma installer you can keep or skip the initial setup wizard for a full wipe installation.

WTF ....read OP. Download and flash in twrp...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
I appreciate all of your help. Last night I clean wiped and flashed a brand new DeluxeROM v8.2, and it worked just fine except it was naked. Then I flashed DETONATOR to see if it would come up correctly again. It did, and I checked Settings -> Connections. In Mobile networks, I noticed I could switch on VoLTE calls. I also deleted all those unneeded APNs except T-Mobile US LTE. I added MintMobile's Ultra settings but left T-Mobile US LTE selected. Then on Settings -> Connections, I selected More connection settings. In there I pressed on Wi_fi Calling and selected Wi-Fi Preferred and switched Ready for calls on.

This morning, I tested everything, and I am indeed making Wi-Fi calls. They sound crystal clear, as all Wi-Fi calls should sound like when you have good Wi-Fi. My router has QoS, but I really don't need to turn it on, as Wi-Fi calls sounded great when I had the Nexus 6. So everything is working as TEKHD advertised. Tomorrow I will install Magisk to see if I can root and get SafetyNet to pass, all the while Wi-Fi calling and other functions continue to operate.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
well glad it turned out ok. be advised that magisk 16.7 dosent pass safety net. dev is aware and is working on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
do i remember incorrectly but is 16.2 the only one that passes safety net in both reality and cosmetically?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Sean_FD2R:
You should update your TWRP and magisk won't be able to pass Safetynet regardless of any version as all the version was built on older API
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
I'm finally on a happy planet because I'm enjoying my international and relatively inexpensive Note 8 with a superlative OS (DeluxeROM v8.2) and WiFi calling! I have a weak cell signal at my house where I spend the majority of the time, but now my calls are crystal clear through WiFi. I'll update TWRP and Magisk later when the Magisk dev solves the SafetyNet problem.

If I remember reading correctly, Android 8.x uses API level 26, but hasn't 8.x been out for a while? Many apps have been developed for this level and are working jes' fine.

Something is wrong with rom , afer restart i have bricked phone (Custom binary problem)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] y0000:
All the roms have this issue. You turn off the oem unlock like my friend before 3 months, he have the same issue. I know only one way to fix the Custom binary issue. You need to connect your phone to your pc with the usb, and you need to flash again official samsung stock rom with odin. The phone will open again with new official stock rom. And you are free to flash again any other rom you like. Dont turn off the oem unlock never again. XDA have tutorials how to flash with odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] lipa12345:
You dont understnad . I know that and right now i have stock rom (instaled by Odin) , and i do not trun of OEM option.

But i used factory reset option and then I instaled Dulux and I do not Trun On this option before installing Dulux so meaby you have right thx :)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Just out of curiosity, where can the "official stock ROM" be found? From what I understand, these international Note 8s have various flavors of stock ROMs. For example, the Korean 950N version is different from the 950F version, and the F version has several flavors of its own. Is there a repository where one can locate and use any one of these official stock ROMs? Not that I would want to, but can I transform my 950F/DF Duo stock phone into a 950N phone by using such ROM, or are there hardware differences that deter such action?

I backed up my 950F phone before I started tinkering with it, but I'd like to know if there is such a repository.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Here is my assessment of v8.3 and its flashing. As most of you know, I was finally successful with zipping TEKHD DETONATOR with v8.2. It transformed my SM-N850F/DF Duo into a T-Mobile like phone so I could have VoLTE and WiFi calling on a T-Mobile based MVNO. My main worry about flashing v8.3 was I would lose this functionality. Also, I had an earlier failure with v8.2 and DETONATOR, and I blamed it on Magisk being on my Note 8.

After Abraham said to dirty flash it, then flash DETONATOR and I would have no problem, I took the plunge late yesterday. It worked out just fine. Everything was intact and functioning except for the T-Mobile WiFi calling, APN selection and VoLTE being turned off. This was because of DETONATOR, not v8.3. I quickly set those up and have been testing all functions I use since last night. Everything works! Thanks, dev!

I've also flashed TWRP 3.2.1-0, and I can hardly wait for Magisk to be fixed so I can start using Google Pay again. DeluxeROM and DETONATOR are working so well that all I really need is to pass the SafetyNet test and I'm good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Sean_FD2R:
For future flashing, run a nandroid backup first before flashing anything. In case of haywire, you may roll back to previous backup.

About Google Pay, I'm able to launch it despite Magisk issue but didn't try on payment.

Recommend Good-Best microSD Card

When I got my SM-N950F/DF Duo Note 8, I removed a 32 GB SD micro card from my Samsung Tab S tablet and put it into the Note 8 sim 2 carrier slot. Since then I've made several backups of the stock ROM and DeluxeROM configurations. In other words, I'm running out of external card memory. Yes, I can delete some of these configs, but I'd rather keep most of them for several reasons. Now I'm shopping around on ebay, looking for a really good microSD card. I've seen several by Sandisk and Samsung, but they have extended titles that to me are mostly marketing. I do know that the SDXC microSD go from 64 GB to 256 GB, so this is where I'm mostly focusing on. Do any of you have recommendations pertaining to which are the most compatible and best cards for the international Note 8. If you can describe your recommendation such that I can reference it on ebay, I would most surely appreciate it. Seems like Samsung has an EVO Plus C10 that looks pretty good, but I'm not an SD card expert.

Thx.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Huele Fello:
Thank you and puddingoz for posting about your experiences with buying microSD cards on ebay. I agree that there are scams, and I'm always concerned about them. In fact, when I bought my Note 8 about a month ago, I learned that there were actually fake Note 8 being sold! I thought about this and wondered how could anyone fake a Note 8? My conclusion was that Note 8s are built at factories with rigid quality control in place, and some product doesn't make the grade. The rejects are supposed to be handled in certain ways to make sure they don't make their way into the supply chain, but greed takes over and some employees sneak them out the door. You then buy a Note 8 that has certain problems but functions less than 100%. Same thing with these microSD cards.

I just bought a Samsung EVO+ card on ebay from a U.S. seller guaranteeing authenticity and has a 100% satisfaction rating. He also takes returns, so I'm reasonably assured it is not counterfeit. I applied the same filters and questions to the vendor I bought my Note 8 from, and it's functioning very well. BTW, the cost of the microSD card was 60% of what Best Buy wants when I factor in taxes.
