This may be a dumb one but I'll ask anyway :p. Once there is a working twrp that means all that is needed for root is to flash magisk or su.... Correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Theoretically yes. Worst case scenario is we have to inject system based root. But Magisk should work. My device is on a FedEx truck, so I'll be attempting to root with or without TWRP tomorrow. I have a couple of ideas. Having an unlocked bootloader really is the only big hurdle

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] klabit87:
Only thing left to fix for twrp is /data encryption.

Which we may just need to disable encryption in /vendor/etc/ fstab.qcom

I'll push the latest changes to the repo today.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Well this is good news. Good timing too for me anyway haha.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
So this would be the Chinese firmware with no rmm? Oem unlock available immediately?

[emoji450] --->
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
I don't know about the RMM on the China firmware. I would recommend the Hong Kong as it has the playstore as well as no bloat. That's what I am on now with no RMM and OEM unlock out of the gate.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] suzook:
Chinese FW HAS RMM. Why the hk version does not, is beyond me. I'm thinking if the factory flashed FW has rmm, it seems to carry over with e every new FW flash. I'm wondering if we need a newer patched Odin to PROPERLY flash the snap n9.

---------- Post added at 03:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:23 PM ----------

And no signal on vzw?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
It seems that there is a "carrier" partition in TWRP on this model. It possibly has something to do with that as far as signal. We will see.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] suzook:
That makes alot of sense. Probably why the old SIM card trick is not working on the n960 switching carriers.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] klabit87:
The carrier partition is the odm partition.

I may remove it if it's dangerous and could cause a hard brick.

I haven't looked to see what's in it yet.

This is a seller in houston though he charges tax which brings the price up to be more expensive than the first link

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] suzook:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] elevatorguy:
How do you tell what sw you will get is it just luck of the draw? Did you get yours working on vzw again? I remember you had said something about once root was available you could fix it. I guess what I'm getting at is know matter what software it comes with I can get it to work. One more thing the version you got was the 9600 just making sure because some of the listing say it will not work on vzw. Thanks for all your help.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Being a treble based system, I have already flashed lineage os successfully. And I'm sure any GSI flashed on this device will work.

I'm planning on a rom, and my guess is we could actually flash any rom from even the exynos note 9 with treble involved. There may be some porting involved but most of the guys with ROMs for the F model love spreading their compatibility.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] suzook:
ITS NEVER gonna happen on this phone.

That sounds great. What's the name of your rom? Couldn't wait any longer and went ahead and put in an order last night. Have you got twrp working or still just using your root method?

Viper working out of the gate that's amazing. I don't know how many times I've almost thrown a phone messing with that program. Have you ever heard of of the Arise version of v4a? It has a whole bunch of different things that can be done with it.

Certainly. Though ARISE is a collection of lots of different audio mods. V4a is v4a no matter where it comes from or how it's themed.

Anyone manage to get their Verizon signal working again in the end? I'm on T-Mobile so don't have the issue, was just curious as I did find a build.prop file in omc that had

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
I am currently in RMM-prenormal at the moment, so I haven't got to try anything else. I have someone working with me though that is very knowledgeable about Samsung and Verizon. He said he has a few ideas to get it going but we haven't been able to try them yet. I'll make sure he knows about that edit though! Thank you!!

Was the edit disabled or was it enabled when you found it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
It's just a line that is in the tgy build.prop in the omc folder.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
It appears it was already enabled though isn't it? Does =1 mean that the line is enabled?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Not really sure, maybe.. it means run cdma in lte mode only. I dunno. Just a thought.

[MENTION=4553200]Mentalmuso[/MENTION] Hey, if you don't mind, could you possibly download Network Guru and check to see what all bands are available on the HK hardware? I'm thinking it is the same, but I was just going to make sure it isn't a hardware limitation.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Sure, I tried previously but that app didn't work properly with the half broken magisk root we had before TWRP. I'll try it again now

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
In fact it's still not working on my device

Thank you anyways though!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] suzook:
1 does mean enable.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Well yeah, =1 is on. But what is the build.prop line turning on is the question.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] klabit87:
I'm pretty sure

0 means lte is off when in cdma mode

1 means lte is on when in cdma mode.

That just tells phone what network select mode to use gsm or cdma in network settings

Did you ever make or get your zip working to fix vzw? Or has anyone else gotten vzw fully working? Would be great otherwise I have an expensive paper weight
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
Can you give me details again on what broke vzw for you? Which firmware it worked on, and what firmware you flashed that broke it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
I have a HK model that did not get signal at all on Verizon. What I did was Odin the TPA firmware, wait 7 days for RMM-Normal, then changed the Mps_code.dat to TPA and now I have LTE and CDMA. There is still no Volte present though.

When you change Mps_code.dat, make sure you do not try it booted up with a rooted file explorer and then try to do a reboot. Or you will have a security error only fixable by Odin.

You can do the command:

echo "TPA" > /efs/imei/mps_code.dat

In TWRP command prompt after mounting vendor. Make sure you already have the TPA CSC Odin'ed though. Or alternatively, you can just place the modified file in file explorer in TWRP and set the permissions. Either way, you still have to have the CSC files placed before changing the Mps_code I think.

If you try changing it while booted it will throw up a security error and will not let you boot or get to recovery. I guess changing regions while it is booted set of the security alarm. You have to Odin at that point and wait 7 more days. I accidentally did that and now I'm in RMM jail again. However, my mps_code.dat is still changed and I have full signal on Verizon. Until that Mps file is changed, you won't get signal at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] elevatorguy:
Thanks for the help. Suzoook helped me out today
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mentalmuso:
I'll try make a flash able zip today that changes the csc to vzw, this may help with volte. It'll also change the dat files also to vzw. I presume there will always be a risk with rmm. Though..

Is it the TGY hk firmware that has no RMM?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
I think a VZW zip got posted yesterday afternoon that Jrkuse made. I haven't gotten a chance to try it yet though because of the RMM prenormal state. I have like 3 days left. Thank you wanting to help though!

Yeah, I guess that's the case though. I never had any troubles with RMM untill I got on the Latin firmware. We have a RMM disable zip that I'm going to try as soon as I can flash TWRP though.

Have you played around anymore with any AOSP ROMs? Also, do you think we will ever be able to get Volte working on them? I saw that most of them said it doesn't work at the moment.

Knox, Root, Verizon, and Samsung Pay

I

NEED

Samsung Pay, I want Dual Sim and Snapdragon, and I'd like to be on Verizon. It looks like we can get Samsung Pay to work fine in the US on the N9600 (as long as knox isn't tripped). So, my questions are:

1. Is it possible to get the N9600 totally working on Verizon WITHOUT rooting (and thereby tripping knox)?

2. If not, is there a foreseeable method of rooting (and getting the N9600 working on VZW) that will NOT trip knox? I know on some of the older galaxy phones, there were root methods that did not trip knox.

Samsung pay is non-negotiable for me. So if this isn't possible, then I'll either have to:

a) stop using CDMA in the US (i could live with this)

b) give up dual sim and get a US Snapdragon variant (I really want dual sim tho :crying: )
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dr.dido89:
Just flash mexico rom via odin , and insert mexico sim (you can buy one from ebay) before turning the phone on, you will see samsung pay installed automatically.

Just make sure that your phone has unlocked bootloader.

Anyone found a solution here

Hello,

For 2 days now, I have exactly the same issue with wifi and Bluetooth. As soon I switch them on, they get switched off instantly.

I have tried to reboot, safe mode, cache wipe, full factory wipe, but no results. This happened a month ago but came back to normal by itself. But this time it won't.

I contacted Huawei, they told me that my phone comes from China, where they have only one year warrenty, so they cannot it fix it in France even if we have 2 years warrenty here! Super!

Do you have any idea or tutorial on how to purchase and change the wifi/Bluetooth antenna?

Thank you for your help.

Great I'm on a MHA-L29C567 (US) model and as of about a month ago the same thing started happening me. I thought at first it was a radio update and reset the entire device back to stock but now the device is doing the same thing and worse now randomly reboots.

Really frustrating because I really love the phone but for the rear color camera focus sticking and this issue now. Looks like I may need to abandon the phone.

INTRODUCTION

Presenting ANDROID OPEN KANG PROJECT (AOKP)!

Most battery efficient and stable rom:)

What is AOKP?

AOKP, short for Android Open Kang Project, is an open source replacement distribution for smartphones and tablet computers based on the Android mobile operating system.

You might be familiar with LineageOS / CyanogenMod. Both, CM and AOKP are based off AOSP (Android Open Source Project) but differ in many ways. I'd recommend just trying it out.
