If you get lucky, i suggest keep away from Pie, cause sooner or later you will screw your 1,000 phone up not worth it, if people don't care then that's there choice to screw there phones up, i did warn everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Coreax:
It has to be better than what CRJ3 is doing to me. WiFi is disabled, Google Play Services stop every 10 seconds and notifies me, and my phone will not stop freezing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] rejectedjs:
Sucks because last night I spent about 4 hours benchmarking and logging into Notepad about 20 different apps to make a thread on those performances vs Pie, that I planned on flashing today, but after reading that, yeah I'm not taking that chance just to graph some comparison scores in Excel. I'll wait until either that bug is confirmed fixed or Pie is officially released
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaime3344:
Play it safe and get the right download from Samsung, and use thier Odin download. I went back to Oreo using the CSC (not csc home), and user data, and phone was brand new again. Only thing half ass was I got the Sprint download, and after I finished setting up, I had a Verizon app on my phone!lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Coreax:
I am back on ARH6 with 0 problems. All pre-existing problems in Pie were resolved and my IMEI did not go missing. My phone is performing and behaving as if I just took it out of the box for the first time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Venom0642:
Then stay there, lots went like that then kept going back and forth to Pie then bang phone got screwed up no imei no network etc etc , basically paperweight phone, just my advice to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Sorry it just isn't happening. I tried three times with AFH and it dosen't upload correctly. It has to be something on their end.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
technically not abrick at all if its just the imei lol.. but yea, cant use as a phone until some bright ppl start puttin out methods we shouldnt talk about here lol

I was on pie for a week.. when i went back to oreo i flashed combo tho first lol no issues here..

have those that lost imei done anything to try n fix it? sometimes its not gone but not registering.. if its gone gone that sucks lol i did that with one of my tab s3.. was my fault tho as i backed up efs then wiped it lol.. it said "backup n restore" but turned out it was "backup wipe and no restore" lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
The 4th time worked.... For anyone else this is the latest U1 firmware for Verizon

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904027296
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
to add, i did take pie apart a bit.. some of the boot parameters are different than the system props.. like boot showed ro.boot.selinux=permissive but prop showed ro.config.selinux.enforce=1 and rom was enforcing.. it seemed to have random stuff crashing for me as well.. i ran it through the ringer tho and imei is safe..

almost seems like something in the rom got tripped up and wiped efs when trying to revert back? I had a number of security issues goimg back to stock with it going to black screen and forcing me to factory reset (i assume verity issues) as well as my extsd dissappeared for a bit before randomly coming back with all my files intact lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
hey buddy!

what rom r u tryna upload for him? i can give it a go
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
nvm lol see he uploaded already
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
lol thanks anyway. I think my adblocker was messing with AFH. I disabled it and the upload went good after that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
yea, i been messin with knox manage, kme, sds, mdm etc lol so my policies, firewalls etc r all jacked atm.. i have a samsung efota license but i have no idea how to do web code/php.. if i can figure it out, i could get firm ota from sammy themselves lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Venom0642:
Right technically not bricked, but more than 10 people has lost imei and network when trying to go back to Oreo, had one member throw his S9 and broke it cause he tried everything to get back to Oreo lost everything, another had to get phone replaced and so on and theses are people that know how to flash stuff and lost imei, so if this is happening to a lot of people which it is, then it's a dangerous leak, a phone that's over 1,000 dollars, not worth it to mess your phone up with Pie, I been on Oreo leaks which those definitely are stable, and will continue on it, Which makes me wonder why would anyone RISK going on pie, Oreo isn't broken, runs perfectly fine. So i will wait for Official OTA Pie, i am in no hurry to get Pie, My Note 9 and S9 Plus are running flawlessly. Anyway good luck to those messing with Pie.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
I agree. 10 is way too many.. they probably had 10 note 7s catch fire when they did a full recall lol!

i dont get it with pie or oreo leaks to b honest.. theres a oreo leak every week and i rarely ever see any difference than the prior build i updated from lol.. maybe when they update security patches sure.

but agreed.. any pie posts should have a disclaimer. i personally didnt even know until today lol. i was on pie for a week before coming in here and seeing what happened to some users :-/
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Venom0642:
And that's on here Note9, if you go to S9 Pie thread which they have for S9 Plus and S9, it's worse over there, a bunch losing imei, And i did do lots of warning, but can't tell no one what to do it's there phones, at least i give warnings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] netnerd:
running pie j3 over here. flashed j1, went back to Oreo then pie j3. no problem, quite happy with pie. only thing not working on pie is chase pay.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
Ran Pie for about 10min went back to Oreo for all the reasons posted. Not in a hurry, staying put Oreo ARH2 is just fine for me[emoji16]

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cshort0982:
Anyone see on firmware science under the U section a CRL9 to CRLG path?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
It doesn't exist. You'd have to use Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] cshort0982:
Oh but it does...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
Weird. Only a couple of those C to C hops have been produced. Enjoy it I guess. I'm having great luck with dirty flashing, so I'm at CRLJ.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] hkjxda:
Interesting... Is that a more recent update than CRLJ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ricohz:
New working themes on latest
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
No, it's a few revs older.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gandalf:
Yes but the main difference is that it seems to be exclusive to the upgrade path from ARL2 rather than ARJA
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] henklbr:
Because the N9 firmware is "more stable" than the S9-firmware, it won't get as much updates as the S9-series! The latest firmware is ZRL6

Despite the title of this thread says nothing about which model this thread is, it's used for the US-model of the Note9.

On CRLJ, does anyone have issues with messages sync with Sansung Cloud. I started syncing last night, and it is still ongoing at 58%. I had to force stop to end it. No I do not have that many messages for it to go on for 10 hrs.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChadH42:
Any new beta for the U1 or is ZRL7 still the newest??

Anyone else getting a lot worse battery life on pie? I'm getting 2-3 hours less SOT than I did with oreo.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chuckd610:
I added about 95% of my apps to "sleeping apps". There is a noticeable increase in battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jason66777:
My screen seems to drain battery at a normal rate, but my standby is way worse. I went from losing 2-4% overnight to suddenly losing about 10%. It's also happening on the U1 builds, I didn't have this issue on the arja ones. I'll try putting apps to sleep though.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ixskullzxi:
This is where I'm at as well. Battery drains when the phone sits. I lost 9% in an hour or so this morning after unplugging from the charger. Settings says it estimates 9 hours remaining with 91% battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Vixenko:

Are you sure it's not Android messages doing it? Was previously discussed here and I noticed that myself. Was already reported as a bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Emd1187:
My phone suddenly turned off, I'm on CRLH. Anyone noticed something similar?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
Not happening here on ZRL7. Are you using Android Messages?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] moe2021:
Has anyone updated to CRLG from CRL9? Is it the same process? It looks like a small update. I'm currently on CRLJ with everything working smoothly I'm not sure if its worth the jump.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ptfdmedic:
You sure that's not a new leak of an older build?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
Why would you want to run an older build?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Venom0642:
Curious for those on Pie, Is battery life near this battery life i get . BTW this is my AT&T Note9 512GB on Latest Oreo S1ARL2 , just wondering if is as good as what i am getting on Oreo. 2 different battery life stats.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
Battery life is improved for me. Both the Cxxx leaks and the Zxxx official betas.

My SOT is low on this lazy Saturday, but after being unplugged for 9 hours, I'm still at 84%. WiFi on, BT on, a good number of apps exempted from battery savings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
I haven't run it up to that much SOT. But standby is at least as good as Oreo (even with AOD).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] moe2021:
It was on firmware science with a date of 12/22. I wasn't sure if that build was older than mine or not
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ptfdmedic:
That's G and we're on J
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] hkjxda:
No one is getting those numbers on any build. Lol. You're in battery heaven. Don't know how you're doing it but I'm certainly jealous.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Backup or sync? I ask because I don't even see an option to sync messages.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] dcscorpio76:
I agree with that. I'm just now beginning to get decent SOT with the latest build CRLJ. I attached a screenshot at 7h22m SOT with 16% battery life. I can probably get another 1h30m out of the battery before it's drained. Standby drain is around 1.5% hr. I have WiFi 100 % of the time in the house and data on when I'm not home obviously. Along with WiFi, I have WiFi calling activated, screen at 50% and all notifications and sounds on. The majority of my usage is web browsing, Amazon, eBay, FB, Instagram, Tapatalk with about 1-2 hours of YouTube a day. I don't play any games on the phone and I do have the majority of apps in the sleep protocol unless I'm using the app. I can't complain with this. View attachment 4670958View attachment 4670960
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chuckd610:
Sync when restoring from previous backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Never seen a sync option for messages, sorry.

View attachment 4670991
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josephigloe:
It's in the messages app in settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chuckd610:
During the setup process, you are prompted to either setup as a new device of restore from previous backup. Once the restore from backup is complete and after opening messages app, you will be given an option to "sync messages". Once selected, the sync process continues to run and never stops. That is the issue I'm asking if anyone else has experienced.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Looks like that's specific to AT&T bloat , no wonder I never saw that before. Thanks for the clarification [MENTION=5419764]Josephigloe[/MENTION]

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
You can tell what version of Android it is just by the build number.*You can also tell if each update just contains the updated security patch, or if new features were added or updated.

The first character (S or U) tells you if it's a security patch or a feature update. S = Security Patch and U = Feature Update (features added or changed)

The second character (a number) tells you bootloader version. This is important to know when upgrading and downgrading OS versions. You can NOT downgrade the bootloader. 1 = Bootloader V1, 2 = Bootloader v2, etc...

The third character tells you the Android version. This is different for each Galaxy device. A is the Android version that device was released with. (For the Note 9 A=Oreo; C=Pie) B will likely be newer versions of Oreo, possibly with an updated bootloader.*Z is for official Samsung BETA program builds.

The fourth character is the year of the build (R=2018, S=2019). This is the same across all Galaxy devices.

The fifth character is the month of the build. This does not indicate what security patch it contains, only what month it was built. (A=January, B=February). Again, same across all Galaxy Devices.

The sixth character is just the sequence of builds that month (1-9, then A-Z)

SO

S - Security Patch

1 - Bootloader V1

A - Oreo

R - 2018

J - October build

9 - 9th build in October

and

U - Feature update

1 - Bootloader V1

C - Pie

R - 2018

L - December build

2 - 2nd build in December

and

U - Feature update

1 - Bootloader v1

Z - Official Samsung BETA program build

R - 2018

K - November build

P - 25th build in November

Make sense?

I'll be damned if I haven't memorized this yet ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
I know. About every two or three pages, someone posts an A build and asks if it's Pie, or they ask which leak is newer, etc. Figured I'll just keep reposting it. It's easy enough to copy and paste from my notes.

Issues after Upgrade to Pie

Hi everybody, I wonder if anyone of you has the same issues like me after updating (somewhat involuntarily, but that's another story) to Pie:

1. Good Lock doesn't work anymore although I had it updated to the Pie supporting version. Neither does any of its modules, which is especially painful for routines which are not even shown under the app's activities or as an installed apk anymore. No routines = no airplane mode = no mobile data off etc. Darn. (Doesn't start with BadLock either)

2. This ist probably wanted: It's not possible to minimize apps into a pop up screen via edge gesture anymore. This is reaaaally annoying, if I want to float e.g. the calculator I have to open recents (which I never do via the system recents picker, way too clumsy), search for the icon, click it, search for the pop up option, click it again. In this time I might calculate things by myself. Maybe I should really go that way….

3. The lock screen doesn't provide the information of incoming notifications anymore. This may be useful for some data overly protectors, but was possible with Oreo and Lock Star already. No I have to tap on the symbols to see if there anything relevant at all, I have not yet found any possibility to make it convenient again.

4. More than stupid: The themes store doesn't offer anything for this beta OS. There is a notification saying say (if I want to workaround it with Bixby asking for the most popular themes it answers only that there seems to be a problem). OK, fine, I can wait, but the themes I had already downloaded will now be cancelled after 14 days if I don't buy it. Only that there is no way to purchase ist. That's. So. Half-baked.

And I don't like the way One UI now uses half of the screen only to show me which app I'm currently using. Sucks especially with Samsung Notes. However, I'm sure Pie will find its friends, maybe I will get warmer with it over the time (and after some urgent updates!). In case anybody can contribute to my issues, I'd be glad.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] TokedUp:
Has anyone on a carrier US phone been able to get the Beta thru the S+ app? I don't have access to Odin and atm I can't read back 200+ pages.

I'm really worried my carrier will take forever with the Pie update. Might have to look into an alternate option for me. Im on Spectrum Mobile and still on Nov patch
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazyApe18:
I had no problem. Just load the U1 firmware and request beta program for Samsung+ in the app store. You get the banner, enroll, and wait for the OTA update.

PS - to my knowledge everyone not on Pie still has November patch. You're not behind compared to any other stock Note 9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
The beta isn't available for carrier firmware yet. To get on Pie, you only have three options:

1. Use ODIN to flash the U1 firmware, download the Samsung+ beta app, then sign up for the beta. You'll only need ODIN the one time though.

2. Use ODIN to flash the ARJA carrier firmware and sideload a leaked C build. You'll need to ODIN back to Oreo for each update.

3. Wait for the official release from your carrier.

If you don't have access to ODIN, then #3 is your only option. :(

The issue is he has no access to ODIN.
