Sorry If I got you confused my as per my seller My handset is new but for country lock restrictions and to keep the both sim running they had to root the handset, they may have flashed the kernel or injected some Dr. Ketam tweaks into the official Samsung One UI... Theres no custom recovery installed on the device... I tried to install both the official and Dr. Ketans rom but couldn't install the twrp recovery coz the when I click to unlock the OEM, it prompts to a reset, after allowing, it takes it time & the device restarts & the OEM is still unlocked, on the other hand I downloaded the official Samsung UI versions (different versions too for testing purpose) from sammobile & tried to install it as per csc but every time it failed... Could it be anything related to Se for Android Status Enforcing that is keeping the device to this? I would be really really greatful if You or Dr. Ketan can help me out here... Plz suggeat me the possible solutions as I've some basic knowledge to install custom rom werabouts... For additional info I'M attaching the Images... TIA ?

FYI: The Magisk is running ok and functional...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DrPhant0m:
Hello. It's me again... I'm sorry for the long post.

I am using an N960F on Verizon's LTE only service. (This was the only way I could use a rooted Note 9 on Verizon's network). When I initially installed the Q03 ROM, I was having issues with random reboots where the SD card would be ejected when the phone would come back, prompting me to reboot the phone again to get it mounted again. I have bounced around a couple threads and telegram groups, looking for help and now I'm back.

Most recently, I was advised to flash a carrier tool (WETA, v1.07 for android Q), backup my EFS and carrier config partitions in TWRP, then wipe and install the dr ketan ROM. Before booting for the first time, I was advised to restore the EFS and carrier partitions, and then unmount the SD card. THEN... boot the ROM for the first time.

First of all... that process seems to have broken the 3minit and samsung business card apps. Going through the install again and selecting NOT to flash the ROM, but opting to only install 3minit still doesn't work. What is broken when I flash the EFS and carrier configs?

Normally... I'd just need advice on how to get 3minit working again and I'd be OK. (I easily installed the bizcard app.) However, just this morning, my phone started randomly rebooting again, and it's done it twice already.

So... I guess I'm just asking for new advice. I've been advised that the problem is with my CSC. In "About Phone" it tells me that my service provider software is "KSA" or Saudi Arabia... even after flashing the carrier tool (My boot screen is now Verizon-branded, FYI). But the Phone INFO app has a different story to tell... there is no KSA, but everything is either blank, BTU, or VZW. I'm told the blanks are a problem.

If I would flash the BTU (UK) Android 10 release in Odin, I'd start with something in my native language. From there... would it be advisable to flash the CSC from the recently-released Xfinity Wireless Q image for the N960U1? I'm afraid a US CSC will never be released for my N960F... so is this the next best thing? Xfinity uses Verizon's network, so until Verizon does an upgrade to Q, that's the best I've got.

Any input/suggestions are welcome! Thanks so much.

You are flashing stock N960F rom or N?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dr.ketan:
It seems your device is N960N

About phone will show N960F bcoz my rom is installed which is based on N960F

In that case if you flash N960F stock rom it will fail, you need to flash N960N rom

I was using opera since many years, on my pc also it was default browser. Just because of one feature, speed dial but really sync is big drama making. To manage on multiple device is headache.

Finally found alternative, chrome + sppeddial2 extension

Working perfectly. If additionally add two extension, adaway and ultrafurf and no more missing features of opera. Sync of Google is superb.

If your device is N960N (install phone info from play store and check bootloader) then you need to first flash stock N960N rom, then root and manually modify csc to your country

Then what should I do? I want to install & use your Custom Rom... Should I flash Twrp and install your rom or first install the stock then root, twrp, then flash your Rom? Any flashing guidelines?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dr.ketan:
You need to flash stock Q for N960N

Then root twrp and custom rom, read first page +changelog post for instructions

Same issue i got, i buy mine in Thailand and got the n900n version but new whith dr Keaton rom inside.

New phone but make me confused because I think i have the n900f version, so i run into boot loop when i flash the bb for n900f on my n900n divice..

Just go back and unse the rom and bb for N900N that all be fine again..

Mine is over a year old and cost me 450 usd so I think the seller buy them cheap in Korea and put inside dr.keatan rom before he sell them ..

I am not sure about that as I only downloaded the vendor zip when I rooted my phone following his guide. Since that i haven't flashed the vendor zip again. I reflashed Nemesis several times after I failed with this rom and had nor have any issues with that rom which is why I don't understand it.

Edit : just got my laptop out the car to flash his rom and vendor together and see.

Hi again

So I'm on vacation. Tried to change some viper settings and realized its not working.

Tried to reinstall and use again the fix apk.

The sound was ok. Bought a new sim. Restarted my phone and the problem was back. Also played music and its auto skip most of the music.

Restarted and it is working half now.

Music ok.

Some ringtones\notifications sound work and some not.

Just did a search before posting so hopefully I didn't miss something....

I booted and everything is restoring, and all of that works great; but I have two clocks, and two batteries. One battery and one clock are the 3minit ones, so I turned them off, but would like to use them. How to I get the stock clock and battery off?

Any help is appreciated, i'm just coming back to Samsung after a Pixel break the past year. Thanks

I have had the same issue from time to time - Two clocks show up in status bar after reboot - going back into rom control and choosing the clcok I wanted was how I fixed it - not sure there is anything else you can do until the good Doctor fixes it.

[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION],

How are you? Magisk canary has fixed spay issue however your rom is detecting it

You might have busybox built in your rom control app.

I don't want to Uninstall it and break the rom lol

Hope you find another way to keep rom control without having busybox.

I tried spay on my pixel xl 2.

It synced without any detection.

Thanks.

For me, O3 has a problem, Settings gives me FC and cannot continue setup properly. Had to return to older version.

for you yes, the most of us hasn't this problem. Never had this problem
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] TheUndertaker21:
correct but fixed by flashing the vendor from teamexynos rom
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dr.ketan:
Setting FC is caused by non matching vendor and can be fixed by matching ROM + Vendor and so of course if you flash my ROM, flash my version of Vendor, when you flash other ROM, flash vendor available with that ROM

If you are coming from stock that is based on same as mine ROM, you won't have this issue, if you are coming from different version of ROM (Stock/Custom) you have to flash vendor that is provided with ROM

In the quote, you advised me to flash a Q stock firmware for my country. There will never be a Q stock firmware for USA released for the N960F. However, There is now an N960U1 Q firmware released for Verizon.

What is your advice? If I flash the full N960U1 firmware, will it lock my bootloader, since that phone is BL locked? Will it brick my phone? Can I flash any stock Q N960F firmware, and then flash the CSC from the Verizon firmware? Is that safe?

Or... should I flash dr ketan rom Q03 (or Q04 if I wait a few days)... and then flash the Verizon CSC? FYI... I tried this already, and it FAILED in Odin. Thankfully my phone still booted.

Please help... I've tried many suggestions and I still get random reboots with SD card ejection.

Wow. That's cool. I've been using Opera for a very long time (20+ years) and only come across a handful of other Opera users. I love SpeedDial, and several other features (The new side panel is cool, along with VPN).

Years ago, there were several bad builds of Opera and I moved to Chrome and also used the Sdail2. extension but, Chrome came with its own unique issues and quickly became bogged down so...back to Opera.

The differences between Opera and Chrome are very minor as Opera is often mistaken by websites to be Chrome.

I currently on Q03 and I will flash the Q04 when it got release,

This is what I do when about to flash custom ROMs, kernels, modify data partition, basically brake my phone...[emoji38]

Never had a problem.

First while in os I do a Samsung cloud backup, then smart switch on my laptop backup everything including sdcard.

I honestly prefer smart switch over Samsung cloud anyday much faster and I get the phone restored as before. For some reason Samsung cloud doesn't restore some games and apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Twitter etc.

I boot recovery and do full backup of all partitions except system. I do system image.

On my sdcard I have dr.ketan Q03 installer and the TWRP backup then I mess with my phone.... no matter how I can recover...

For instance I had an error on smart switch restore failed, no problem went to Samsung cloud and restore.

Last week got Odin failed error on flashing Q stock, phone got stuck in emergency download mode, there is a way to boot to recovery restore backup done...

If you do this all 3 you are never sorry, only sure...

Hope this helps...

Dr, for custom kernel no need to apply the fix anymore, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dr.ketan:
It depends on kernel based on which source, I think you should flash recommended ROM/Base for custom kernel, Users littering this thread without reason for kernel related stuff/issue, So removed custom kernel fix.

kernel base same as rom now, been thru a lot with this unfinished buggy kernel, I'll make a boot backup just to see if works and let you know...

Not required.

I am using stock kernel so better post to appropriate thread only and not here because it will have no benefit and more confusing/misleading for this rom users.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] !Noki!:
Runs good Doctor...

And for the guy that dirty flash please read changelog and installation instructions, if you dirty flash, fine but you do it at your own risk.

Just do factory reset, clean install, boot and go into magisk, to me it's always up to date, never need additional setup, but if you see additional setup let it finish, then go settings set SU notifications to None, go rom tool apply essential fix, reboot phone, restore....

It's easy and fast... to me the whole process takes less then half an hour, ofcourse depending of your restore method ...cloud or smart switch, your wifi connections etc.....

Actually my 9 year old son does it, while I'm having a beer...
