if flashing N960FXXU2ARI9_DevBase_v5.9.zip in few cases might lose imei and can be fixed by dirty flashing N960FXXS2ARH6_DevBase_v5.9.zip then,

will it work successfully if i simply rename N960FXXU2ARI9_DevBase_v5.9.zip to N960FXXU2ARI9_DevBase_v5.9_skipblcp.zip" and then install it ? This method is written in #1.

Good call but sadly same result.

Sorry for the inconvenience, seems like I need at least one advanced user as my tester :( (is there anyboby willing?)

I went to sleep after releasing ROM and didn't realize that problem is so common...

I will check everything again. In the meantime - as [MENTION=507062]chrisaw[/MENTION] mentioned - problem may be solved by dirty flashing previous build S2ARH6 (available in my AFH / MEGA repository).

But... IS THERE ANYBODY who flashed U2ARI9 build and it works without issues?

Do you mean that clean install of U2ARI9 DevBase solved problem?

As above - please dirty flash previous build to fix the problem

As above... I'm sorry..

I removed temporarily the latest ARI9 build until I figure out what's going on (see post #70) - https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=77750230&postcount=70

Since I didn't find any my clearly visible mistake - It must be something related to binary error somewhere beetween downloading-unpacking-repacking_images-compressing-uploading

I'm re-downloading ARI9 stock ROM again and will try to create ARI9 from the scratch

EDIT: ... but I'm still curious - is there anybody who flashed current ARI9 DevBase and it works? (at least after clean install) [MENTION=8255805]metadeivid[/MENTION] ??

The IMEI loss problem seems to be from Magisk as i am on Stock Rooted at the moment and had the same problem.

If i stay unrooted on latest Firmware then IMEI is present .

As soon as i root with Magisk 17.1 or 17.2 i loose IMEI.

On previous Firmware no problem

Ignore what the guy above me is saying, doesn't know what he is talking about.

YOU CAN'T DOWNGRADE MODEMS AFTER UPDATING TO U3

No imei/baseband is the result when flashing ASA1 modem (or any other modems that aren't U3). i have attached pictures.

I have verified this with my lineage15.1/16 builds, also with CSDJ and ASB1 devbase roms (i get no baseband/imei with older devbase's and their included modems).

It is not possible for me to rollback.

None of my twrp modem backups work anymore, i have been restoring them for 5 months without issues, until now.

Please urgently update the thread with the correct info and change your updater script to stop forcing modem updates

I have a user in my telegram group that is using your latest devbase that i modified for him with the modem files from your CSDJ devbase and it is working without issues.

This is the 2nd time you have done something like this now, the first was messing peoples param partitions (including mine) with your bootloader updates in the past.

I think you have finally lost all credibility.

WTF! This ROM broke my phone!! Now I flash this and it has changed my baseband to N960FXXU3CRF1!! Now my phone is SIM locked!! The update from N960FXXU2CRLT baseband (U2) to N960FXXU3CSF1 Has relocked my phone to a carrier and now I have to pay 100£ for YET another unlock code because of this mess!! It says my SIM card is invalid, Whatever!!, I can buy that!!, only 100 pounds out the window!! but what about this??:

AND my phone lost the 3rd CSC so now it says "BTU/BTU/" and not "BTU/BTU/BTU"!! AND I can not downgrade my modem anymore!! I never had issues before, What the f***?

I can NEVER flash stock Oreo again or a older Pie because of this!!

I just don't get it why people always come in to cry about things going wrong for them. My device has been running the past three builds by ALEXNDR and has been updated through dirty flash without any issues! I'm sure some of us run into trouble but that's a side effect of running custom firmwares

I do believe most of us enjoy the use of this rom and don't face any issues. Otherwise this thread would have exploded already
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Synt4x.93:
you're missing the point,

this update is misleading, he only warns about bootloader not being able to be downgraded from u3, doesnt even mention anywhere that u3 modem is included in the rom.zip.

modem flashing is forced when it should be optional.

now i am stuck on u3 because [MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION] didnt mention anywhere at all that the newer modem was included and isnt downgradeable. only the bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] patensas:
Well as always flashing is at your own risk and a risky business. I just don't get it why people who want to rush in to flashing the latest worry so much about getting back. A real Note 9 issue is guess. Or once again I'm just missing the point.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] youngtg:
Third(the last) csc is nothing but cosmetic thing. I have missing that one too. However, if you had xxx/xxx,xxx/xxx in the first place and you missing third one, your device could be missing some features like RCS . If u have just xxx/xxx,xxx/ it's okay. Plus, if u have sim locked error like that, just flash your home_csc (in your case BTU ) via odin, then u should be ok.

If you flash Dev Base clean or dirty, you automatically have the latest modem.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
ure rombase and modem baseband dont have the same revision. go read about it.

then ull know what not to do.

also 100 pounds for an unlocked is on you. should not cost more than 30 max.

also try to restore efs.img

there are guides on how to do this and this roms like many other probably saves a copy on ure device. just be sure u do t try installing other roms or flash this 1 again so that the original efs backp gets over written.

maybe u also have and efs backup on twrp? usualy one does a backup b4 flashing.

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

modem is in the rom. thus why people are freaking out when they change ideas and downgrade to an other older rom base.

but this behaviour has been like this for a while and is not new for the note 9. been years and years like this
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] antiochasylum:
I'm missing the concept here, this is your device and your choice to flash this rom.

At no point should [MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION] be blamed for YOUR choice to flash. Even using an OTA, you would get a baseband upgrade.

So I'm going to ask to stop with the finger pointing, and the "this messed up my device" or the "you lose credibility". No he did not. YOU choose to flash this without knowing what it flashes.

This is running like a champ on my Note 9.

Alex, thanks for the great base.

Question about this rom and detonator

I just purchased SM-N960F D/S phone and thinking of trying out this rom first. Since I am planning to use the phone on T-Mobile network will I need to download and flash detonator mod on top of this Rom or is it already built in and T-Mobile compatible? Currently links to tekhd detonator file are down so if someone on here can share that would be great.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
after flashing this rom, you can try flashing this csc pack. select USA and then ure carrier:

https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhXVLDDj8g3AgeA6IyH1iTzQAGB4MA

just be sure twrp is properly flashed and that:

you formatted data and rebooted back to recovery to accomplish the custom recovery part correctly and then flash rom then csc pack.

might want to do a full backup in twrp too. especially efs partition before flashing rom or csc pack.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] antiochasylum:

please help me.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Gandicela:
What I did were as below:

1) Flashed with options.prop edited with ROOT=FALSE

2) Flashed TGP kernel with Magisk added under AROMA options

3) Flash sequence is: ROM >> TGP Kernel

4) Wait for boot to complete ~20 minutes

So i suggest, if u use other kernels that has no AROMA options for Magisk is to flash by this sequence:

DevBase ROM (no root) >> Kernel >> Magisk.

Note reboot might take up to 30 minutes.

SM-N960F/DS:

(you can find bootloader in my updated repository, but BL update is not mandatory)

NOTE:

After updating bootloader to U3/S3 (as in case of N960FXXS3CSFC) it will not be possible to downgrade it again to any U2/S2 version.

Also, although flashing U2/S2 CP is possible after updating it to U3/S3, your phone may not work properly after CP donwgrade anymore (no signal, no IMEI until you return to U3/S3 modem). Personally I don't care about this - IMO we should always use the newest modem available as CP updates brings real improvements like better voice/data connection stability, etc.

For those who have a different opinion on this subject (like [MENTION=7861769]Synt4x.93[/MENTION], I'm sorry for inconvenience BTW) - please use (not documented yet) "skipvc" option in the ZIP file name (means exactly "skip variant check", but for security reasons it also skips CP update), then flash the ROM.
