You can install stock firmware by downloading it from sammobile or Samfirm and then installing it using Odin. Use Google for instructions on how to do that.

Once you finish doing that, install magisk using twrp (there's a root thread by dr.ketan in Guides section)

Follow those instructions and then come here AFTER your magisk is installed. This is how I did it and it works for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
Thank you very much.

That's what I'm doing, but the stock firmware download will take me 5 hours for 4.8GB.:(

So I'll see you tomorrow when the download will be finished.

I forgot to mention that I have the 512gb version, is that a problem for TWRP?

I do not think but in case I ask
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Nasty_z:
No that shouldn't be an issue. Good luck

I don't know how the note 8 hack is done but for my note 9 I had to set the time manually to +7 days and the OEM unlock toggle reappeared. I'm sorry if I sounded rude (I didn't mean to) but it's because many people ask already answered questions. It would be more helpful to mention that you have tried what's written in the previous posts specifically, so people who can help know what you tried exactly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] mistryous:
I've usually worked with 'fastboot oem unlock' to install TWRP on other devices. Would this be similar on the Note 9 or is Odin a specific requirement for the current recovery install?

---------- Post added at 07:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 PM ----------

Nevermind, it seems I'll need Odin first and then if desired stick to images that can be installed from TWRP, or using Heimdall or JOdin as alternatives to Odin on Windows.

Hello,

I can't backup "system image" on a USB OTG device, it gives me an error. I can do it if I backup in internal storage thought. My USB stick is working fine too, I used it to backup my S7 for years.

Thanks for helping
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
thats good because you dont need it.

regular 'system' is the one you acctualy want to backup. along side any other partition. just dont select the system image one.

also your file system on the usb key is probably fat 32. and that partition u wrongfully want to backup is at lest 4.1 gig or something. you would need extfat for a single file size that big. fat32 is old and retarded.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
look a both attached twrp images. this is what a full backup should be like.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] MK73DS:
Wow, thanks, I thought my USB drive was formatted in exFat but I was surprised to see that this was not the case, I don't know why I did not format it in exFat.

Are you 100% sure that I'll never need the system image backup ? If yes, why is it an option and what is it ?

Thank you for taking your time helping me
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
I believe it is what is commonly know as 'slot B'.

let's say you save it. then when you restore, you'll have issues.

So dont worry, ive saved and restaured many times without using 'system image' .
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] MK73DS:

have you seen any improvements forvwrite/read of ext sd card?( saving and restoring a full backing)

because its just the worst right now. i remember back on the note 8: performance of accessing ext sd was really bad too and then someone fixed it( made it a bit faster) on an unofficial build.

i know i should not be expecting anything close compared to internal storages but there is definitely something not optimized while accessing ext storage in twrp recovery on note 9
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] ajm786:
Just installed the new version of TWRP. Thanks!

I only wish that it supported mounting Samsung data encryption/decryption. I recall that TWRP for the Note 8 didn't, then someone made a build that included it and it worked great. Hoping for the same thing for our devices too.

ive tried restoring a v3.3.0.0 made backup uisng twrp 3.2.x.x and same problem: bad backup.

i restored boot partition and system partition from an old backup and phone booted.

Hi guys!

I have successfully worked on build the twrp 3.3.0-0 (first time I do that) for our note 9.

After few days of use all seems ok!

But I need more feedback to be sure. So it's up to you!

I optimized some features :

- Removed unused and space hungry System Image backup option

- Vendor is no more backed up as disk image, save more space in back up

- Tried to get better read/write external sdcard speeds, seems to match my sdcard specs now (I especially need your tests about that)

- Probably improve MTP compatibility (USB connection), closer to aosp, it fixed some MTP issues I had with previous TWRP on Ubuntu

I will probably open a new thread and perhaps inquire to integer my build tree in official twrp.

At the moment, as I said, more feedbacks are needed.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
wow thanks man.

ill test it out.

better read write performance to ext sd is realllly interesting as it was dead slow for me on a hight performance v30 card.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] 3arthur6:
You r welcome!;)

Hoping you will get better speed perf... I am still doing some research on it
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
so i just took a backup and i hit 25 x 28

which seems to have improved a bit.( i might revert back to old twrp and do an other backup to to compaire)

before taking by backup i went to delete an old one. uppon erasing it there was an error about vendor.

but when i remade the backup there were no such error
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Detonatte:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] 3arthur6:
Ok, I get a bit better speed with mine, approx 30-32Mb/s and what are the theorical specs of your card?

Humm thank you! The new vendor backup method makes older vendor backups no more usable, which cause your error. I will fix that.

Hey. Great work man, nice to see an updated twrp. Was curious though if there's any chance of you compiling twrp again but possibly with an f2fs kernel as that will fully support f2fs then for people that want to use. White wolf 007 recently enabled support if you would consider checking it out. If you decide to do so and have any questions feel free to message me. Thanks a lot?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] 3arthur6:
You r welcome

No problem!

I will take a look, and try to include it in the next update.

By the way stock Samsung rom can't mount f2fs right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DEVILOPS 007:
Stock OneUI can work with f2fs. You just need to modify the fstab.samsungexynos9810 to allow that. With twrp 3.2.x.x you would need to flash arter f2fs tools and an f2fs kernel and it would work. Problem was that data and cache aren't really detectable in twrp. With 3.3 it supports f2fs so arter f2fs tools are not necessary but to avoid issues with data partition you need that f2fs kernel when compiling it. Hope that answered your question. If you could make the same exact build but with the below kernel then that'd be massively appreciated. Thank you

---------- Post added at 11:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 PM ----------

It can't mount f2fs on 3.2 unless you flash arter f2fs tools prior to changing filesystem to f2fs

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
Or this kernel if you feel comfortable for Oreo support :)

https://github.com/THEBOSS619/Note9-Zeus-Oreo8.1

I'm the developer for this kernel and it fully supports f2fs... the only problemis that Twrp doesn't see f2fs partitions but my kernel boots with f2fs partitions fine on /data & /cache too , stock roms doesn't need any modification :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DEVILOPS 007:
Would an Oreo kernel at base support f2fs on pie though?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] störte:

Would be good to have option vendor image because if there is a new base you could easy return to previous base
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] 3arthur6:
No, you can try this version, it is ok for daily use.

Thanks! But a GSI kernel is needed, it seems yours is for touchwiz?

Nice. And so did you get real improvement by using f2fs? Does it affect the battery?

You still can back up vendor partition, it is only the way how it is backed up that has changed. For now you can't restore twrp 3.2.x vendor backup with my twrp build. But it will be fixed with next release
