NOTE :

I AM NOT A DEVELOPER.THIS IS JUST THE FINAL RESULT OF MY "HIT & TRIAL" FOR OVER A WEEK.PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP IN TWRP OF UR SYSTEM BEFORE DOING THIS.

INSTALLING FULLY FUNCTIONAL MAGISK WAS REALLY TROUBLESOME FOR ME(E6533)

sometimes it was showing error while flashing

SOMETIMES it was flashed without error but system failed to reboot/bootlooped​

credits:

[MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] for magisk

I have tested this and is working fine in my xperia z3+ dual(E6533)...but m sure it will work with all models of z3+/z4.so try it & let others know it.

PREREQUISITES:

1.ur firmware/rom must be nougat 7.1. [please dont try on MM/LP]

2.USB DEBUGGING AND INSTALLATION OF UNKNOWN SOURCE MUST B ENABLED.

2.FIRMWARE should be un-rooted[ if u have installed supersu/tried magisk earlier/failed/erronous attempt of installing magisk.........then use unsu.zip /magisk uninstaller before proceeding]

3.the boot image(new_kernel) over which magisk will be installed is stock nougat 7.1.1 so this method will work in any rom which can be booted via stock boot image.eg.it will work on m-rom and stock (m sure of it)

4.twrp must be installed

5.basic knowledge of fastboot commands for flashing kernel

lets start....

1.in twrp first of all clean any traces of supersu/failed magisk installation by flashing "unsu.zip or magisk uninstaller"

2.power off ur device and then flash the "new_kernel.img via fastboot....use these commands

a.imp to check whether the kernel will boot in ur device or not (if this step shows any error,plz dont proceed to b.

in cmd window : fastboot boot new_kernel.img

b.to flash the kernel

in cmd window :fastboot flash boot new_kernel.img

IMP:steps 1 & 2 are can also be used when u have met with an unexpected bootloop/restart problem at any time( if u don't want to flash the complete stock ftf,this boot image will help u in letting ur device come out of bootloop.

3.proceeding to our main thread....now boot into recovery & flash "magisk.zip"

4.wipe cache & dalvik.and reboot.

PROPERTIES OF THE KERNEL (new_kernel.img

:---

Build 32.4.A.1.54

1. Sony RIC- disabled.

2. DM-Verity- disabled.

3. TWRP- disabled.

4. DRM Fix- enabled.

5. Superuser / root- Not present. ( flash magisk its better)

6. Busybox- Not present

7.many more tweaks to reduce heat & increase battery backup

I just want stock rooted rom with magiks

I don't want to use any new kernel .can I flash the magiks.zip directly in twrp
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] doctorsworld99:
u can try flashing magisk over stock.but whenever i did that my device used to go into bootloop.thats why i've to experiment with different twrps,kernels to detect the culprit.

finally i got this awesome kernel which helped me to come out of bootloops everytime.so i will suggest to use this [near to stock ] kernel .

but u can try flashing magisk over stock.....if anything goes wrong ,,,just flash the new_kernel,,and ua fine to go with magisk.:)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Sumantomar1709:
Thnx. I will try & let u know.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Champsingh909:
thank u sirThis kernel help me from bootloop .how did u make this kernel
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] doctorsworld99:
i didn't make it buddy....i tried kernels from stock /m-rom /kryptonian /LOS & one i found in generall section .its one of them .....i don't know exactly which one is it.but with this one i was able to boot evertime
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Sumantomar1709:
This kernel really working in bootloop.thnx
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Champsingh909:
it is really a good kernel but wondeering why it was not posted anywhere before.u should post this in kernel section so many users will be benefitted.btw thanks alot
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] doctorsworld99:
creating a separate thread isn't a good idea ,i'll update the details of the kernel in this thread itself,plz give me some time.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] doctorsworld99:
Kernel properties added.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Fablos:
Wait... Installing Magisk caused a bootloop for you? Never happened to me tho.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] doctorsworld99:
i got frequent bootloops on installing it over stock kernel and also over m-rom .i think the kernel was the culprit.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] chrnodroid:
Recently I unlocked the bootloader of my Z4 single sim (E6553), but I accidentally lost the TA partition backup. Now I have LOS 14.1 but it's not good at all, I want to return to the stock firmware.

I read here that this kernel have the "DRM Fix- enabled." , what means? If I flash this kernel I can use again every features like BionZ, Bravia Engine, etc ?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] doctorsworld99:
Hopefully yes,flash it as instructed.best of luck:good:
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] MrHands0m3:
Anyone tested if the Kernel is "DRM FiX ready"? Im planning to root my Z3+ (E6533) without backing up my TA, but if this Kernel is equipped with DRM Fix I would go with this one.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] d_g_m_2000:
confirmed!! this kernel is the ****!.. try it... (don't blame me if you brick your device)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] zocker1996:
The link to download the kernel won't work anymore, is there a mirror?

Hello,:laugh:

Can someone please suggest me some oreo based rom which doesn't have network issue. As, I'm in India with Jio & Bsnl as my two networks, and everyday once in a while bsnl stop taking calls.:crying:

I have pretty good network coverage on both networks(i.e. Jio & Bsnl).

I'm on Bootleggers rom 8.1 latest build for Kenzo device.

I use Jio as my primary data sim with LTE network, and bsnl as my primary sim for calls.

Maybe this configuration is issue or the rom itself idk.:confused:

Any help would be appreciated.:)

Thanks.:highfive:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Keep network mode global and check if its working.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] hackiee:
Thanks for reply, what do you mean by network mode global bro ? there's no setting like global in network settings :confused:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Go to preferred network mode.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] hackiee:
tried your method still problem persists :confused:

anyway thanks for help :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Try diffrent rom to.check if this is fixed in other rom.

aex rom , RR rom or cardinal rom.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] hackiee:
okay here's what i had done, firstly i have flashed latest 8.7.3's firmware & modem files(thought it might resolve my bad network reception nd sometimes network loss issue), but to my bad it make it more worse.

I lost my volte ?

Then, after some searching I flashed full global rom of miui 10, but it was also not able to get my volte back, nd even get my imei erased ?

So, after all this I flashed my full backup of stock rom. which gave me back my mobile's imei & volte back.

Then, I flased cardinal rom this time, i didn't faced network drop this time, but BSNL's reception were low as before only.

And after some searching, I went through this post

https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/fix-low-weak-poor-wifi-signal-en-redmi-t3750278

& gave it a shot. IDK of others but it improved my both network's reception ?.

I think you should also try this guide, it will improve network reception of both wifi nd mobile network.

Currently, I'm with almost full reception on both network's. will see if I face any issues with this tweak.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Upload some pics. His red markings on pic left right arrow is confusing.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] hackiee:
Issue still there, preferred network is global & changed rom also (cardinal)

Sorry, rightnow I don't have the mobile, coz it's my mother's mobile will upload pics also as soon as I get mobile.

But, for some reference here's the link:

http://en.miui.com/thread-3019322-1-1.html

I just stick foil paper on both left & right ends.

But, my problem still persists of call not working for BSNL.

here's what I have in configurations & what problem I am facing.

# I have two sim cards:

in 1st slot BSNL

in 2nd slot JIO

As, mentioned by you I have selected global as preferred network for both the sim cards

(But, as personally observed by me, this doesn't matter much, if settings are GSM & LTE or both Global).

I have more than half network coverage in my mobile every time. :eek:

# My configuration in Sim settings is as follows:

Preferred data : Jio

Preferred call : BSNL

Preferred sms : Jio/BSNL (Does't matter)

Volte is working fine :good:, internet is working fine also, but by this configurations I get call issues in BSNL. :confused:

# Changes I perform which resolves call issues of BSNL are:

Preferred data : BSNL

^^Rest settings as above

This resolves the call connecting issues of BSNL, but as soon as I perform this change, Jio's volte stops & internet also (internet is obvious). :rolleyes:

So, that's what I am facing. Try this yourself & see if you also facing, if not then what's the problem. :(

I know the culprit is "preferred data". :eek:

Summary,

# If preferred data BSNL, then volte issues

# If preferred data Jio, then call issues

Please tell me what to do. :(:(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
So u have no issues on miui global rom?

What about custom nougat rom ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] hackiee:
No, I was not having issues with miui global rom, and now I figured out why :D

Firstly, all the issues were caused because of the sim configuration settings only, coz previously when I was on miui rom I was using Jio as my primary sim for all the things (i.e. calls, net, and msg)

But, now I was using BSNL for call, & rest Jio

So, the solution came out that when volte is enabled in a mobile, then the same sim card should be used for calling on which volte is enabled.

I mean, as I was using BSNL and Jio sim cards, I was also enabling volte in my network settings for Jio, which enables volte for both sim cards.

And VoLTE = Voice over LTE, but BSNL doesn't have a LTE network available.

So, that was causing the issues in connecting calls.

So, the solution was simple :laugh:

Disabled volte(or Enhanced LTE).

Now, all things are working good calls, data, msg :highfive:

Thanks for being helpful bro. :victory:

and are you able to do that foil paper hack ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Black_Stark:
Who using bsnl. What benefits of bsnl . bsnl is 10yrs behind.:mad:

Just saw this today: https://www.reddit.com/r/StarlightStage/comments/9e9u7j/heads_up_to_those_considering_of_buying_the/

Was having an issue myself where in Real Racing 3, if I pressed down with my whole thumb, not just the tip, it would stop registering that I'm still holding the button.

Discuss.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] boulder96:
I'm the OP for that thread you linked. :highfive:

The touch input is still not fixed, I'm considering whether to sell the Tab S4 and just get the MiPad 4.

For those wondering what the problem is:

The Galaxy Tab S4 is just plain bad for quick action games, since fast and simultaneous inputs are registered as erroneous and ignored by the tablet. You will also notice a huge input lag when you use multi touch.

Download any touch screen test app and just try holding one finger down on the tablet and swiping across the screen with another finger. You'll see the input trailing far behind your finger

Also, while holding one finger down on the screen, swipe across the screen quickly with another finger, and you'll see that it leaves a large 'blank' spot on the screen, which means the touch didn't register there at all

Lastly, try swiping in opposite directions quickly and the touch goes crazy.

You can see an example from the pictures attached (not mine):

Image 1: 1 finger swipe, so far everything is OK

Image 2: 1 finger held on the left, 1 finger swipe at the right. Notice the blank spots in the trail

Image 3: Swiping in opposite directions. Also, notice the blank spots.

So far I've tried live chat with Samsung support, but as usual they weren't of much help. They suggested I report using the Samsung Members app, which I've since done so, but I have no way of knowing if they received the report. The touch screen problem is not an isolated case; on Japanese twitter and 5ch forum, you'll find a lot of complains about the tab s4's touch input too.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] mistermojorizin:
Thanks, any insight into my problem? When I press down with the fleshy part of my thumb, it stops registering a touch. Been trying to turn off various palm rejection features, but no luck. my first samsung device. are there any settings you know I could mess with?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] boulder96:
I don't have a solution myself either. We can only hope Samsung releases an update to fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
Also having this problem when playing MOBA games, it's extremely frustrating specially with games that you have to do a couple of things on the screen at the same time.

Now the question is, will be ever be fixed by samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] N1NJATH3ORY:
Really guys wouldn’t it be better to use PS4 Dual Shock 4 controller? Or Xbox One X controller with your Tab S4 ?

If your truly serious about gaming ? Jump on your Xbox One X or PS4. Problem solved!:D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
There are games that aren't compatible with a controller, that are also not available on console. I have consoles and PC for gaming. but it would be nice to play the game you want on the tab right? after all we paid a premium for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] N1NJATH3ORY:
i thought root would allow to bypass restrictions on joypads games etc ? Sounds like that’s not the case..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
it does, but as i've said there are games that are not compatible, not just with the controller but with the controls. like for example the aiming of skills for MOBA games.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] TechNyne66:
I'm wondering if the touch problem is a hardware thing. My original s4 was hardware 00, and my replacement is hardware Rev.04 and doesn't seem to have touch problems now.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
Where do you see the hardware rev info? Also what firmware are you in during the time that you had the problem and currently?

Hopefully this is not a hardware thing because samsung in our country isn't really helpful when it comes to admitting problems on their end. I had an awful experience with the whole Note7 fiasco
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] AM Radio:
did anyone with this issue get the Nov 01 software update? it was supposed to address S-Pen issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
Is the touch problem connected to the spen issues?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] AM Radio:
yes, good question. the description from Samsung was quite vague/general. curious if the update might also influence touchscreen issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
here's us hoping that it would get fixed by a FW update
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
Apparently there's a new firmware (J3) update released for our country (Philippines). i'll flash it tom and will let you guys know if it fixes the touch problem. if it does, then i'm gonna to stop considering buying the new iPad Pro hahaha
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] j3yps:
I'm happy to tell you guys that the latest (J3) firmware fixed the touch problem for me. Here's the test i did following the pattern on the first post (i also played a MOBA game before posting here, just to confirm that the problem is gone)

Hi, everyone.

Running firmware ARK4 I have had the same problems and solved them by disabling "Settings" -> "Display" -> "Block accidental touches".

Can anyone of you check, whethher this works for you, too?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] anhhuy1605:
Sorry for bringing this topic up, I got this problem on my newly bought tab s4 too. I was playing a MOBA game and notice my swipe input doesn't recognized and I still can't find the solution. I was able to find the specific steps to reproduce the problem for this bug, but when I come to samsung service to report this, they didn't accept that and insist that the tablet passed all the tests in their system.

To those who would like to reproduce this problem:

1. Install Touch Screen Test app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.rallwell.siriuth.touchscreentest)

2. Touch and hold a point on the screen with your left hand

3. Use your right hand and quickly swipe and go OUTSIDE of the display

4. The input will drop the moment your second touch reach the edge of the display

I think this is a problem from the firmware where they decide to drop input in some special cases, single touch swipe does not meet that problem. Hope to get more of your opinion on this so we can find a solution. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] MikeyNick:
I find the ability to pin a screen off memo to the AOD very useful, cause I get quite busy at work and tend to forget to follow up with things, and this kind of forces me to see it. However, screen off memo seems a little finicky in terms of how long it stays up for, making sure my screen is actually locked when I pull out the pen, etc. Sometimes if I have the phone already on and I want to pin a note, I have to lock it, put the pen in, then pull the pen back out just to get screen off memo to activate.

Is there a way to just pin any note I make in samsung notes to the AOD? This would be a lot more usable in many situations.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Scott:
I also am looking for a solution to this. My scenario is very similar to yours.

The closest option I could find was pinning a note to the home screen.

I am hoping this is just a minor oversight by Samsung and the function may be added in something like "SmartLock"
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ravijani:
Activate screen off memo by locking screen while spen is out and double tapping it by spen button pressed.

Always worked for me. No need to reinsert spen.

Neat feature to add multiple screen off memos too.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Scott:
Ya? I cant get that to work. Two taps doesn't do anything.

I did note that you can change the Note Type in the Notes app. I changed one to a screen off memo but I still cant get it on lock screen :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ravijani:
screen is locked (?) and press spen button while tapping twice. I just tried and it worked.

Shouldnt be a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] strikeIII:
It one click of the spen button if your spen is already out and you turn off the screen. Make sure the spen is hovering over the screen or it will just try to unlock your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Scott:
Maybe a regional difference? IDK...

Yep, this worked! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ishanshah1989@gmail.com:
This works. Also, if you already have a pinned note, it can be edited by just tapping the note with the s pen.

I bought the 128gb blue variant on 5th September sale, recieved it 4 days later with one hairline crack and few scratches on the screen so I ordered a replace.

This time I received the 2nd phone with a dead pixel on the upper left display. So I've finally asked for a refund now.

The performance of the phone is very good but the quality check of Xiaomi sucks. :(
