Has the appropriated Q bootloader been linked here? I presume Android Q Launcher is meant by it...

I'm also wondering If I can finally use Google Phone App with DevBase ; even with downloading the .apk it seems to disappear of my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Baluki2017:
It opens and stays open for a few seconds then closes again. I did exactly what you asked me to do.

As a matter I used your post where you were flashing from TWRP instead of magisk to download the file and I followed the instructions you were giving to guide me through the installation.

I even did a clean flash using TWRP 33317. Still no difference. I don't know what else to do.

Prior to flashing this rom, I had flashed Q stock Rom from download mode with the AP, BL, CP and Home CSC which is ECT.. But I never had this issue in Pie.

How do I I wipe the stock rom? I did a full wipe after I flashed TWRP-3.2.3 recovery before I Flashed Alexander's rom.

I'm a novice at this. Could you please give me a step by step guide to help me put an end to this mystery.

I wish I could give you my phone and let you fix it for me . Because I really don't want to break my phone.

Let me tell you what I did before I ever flashed Alexander's rom.

Initially I had Pie on my phone. When Android Q came out, I used Sam firm to download stock android Q and flashed it using Odin 314. and everything worked perfectly. But when I installed magisk, I started having issues on my phone. In order to fix the issue, I dirty flashed Alexander's rom and the issue with magisk was fixed. But when I I flashed exposed and installed the edxposed manager , I started having the crashing issue. Other than that everything else works perfectly. Now you know the whole story. It's 00:16 am here now. What time is it where you are. If it's convenient for you, I don't mind staying up in order to fix this problem.

Thank you for your taking out the time to help me even though you don't ne.

Waiting to hear from you. Could you please do me a favour? Could you shoot me an email after you have responded to this message at bayo.arojojoye@gmail.com?

Thanks.

Waiting anxiously.

Kernel sources?

Hey man!

Love the ROM - just wondering if you provide kernel sources anywhere?

I like to add a few mods to your kernel in the form of:

- Wakeblock functionality

- Wireguard

Maybe a few others for the sake of improved battery life and additional functionality.

More than happy to credit your work and not looking to do anything at all to your ROM itself - just want a few extra things in the kernel. :)

Cheers!

@ _alexndr

From the OP, to edit the # Custom virtual debloat list. Allowed value in each line: exact app name with .apk extension.

# (NOTE: without app's path/directory, wildcards are NOT allowed here!)

Any apps edited or added unto the list below those lines will render the ROM unable to proceed with setup. I am unable to go to Google login. Without a new edited "options.prop" file in my external SD card, I am able to completely setup the ROM with no issues.

Any advice, please? I really liked the idea of de-bloated ROM, but can't get it to work yet. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] _alexndr:
I'm not going to apply half-solutions, as I mentioned already in post #93.

I'm waiting for ARI9 kernel sources which let us figure out new defex hexpath to let run ARI9 base with the dedicated kernel

Have you tried with other custom fonts?

Kernel incuded in this rom is pure stock so sources are not necessary (you can download Samsung's sources from http://opensource.samsung.com).

AFAIK, at the moment using odexed ROM with pure stock kernel (just patched by Magisk) is the only trick to let Gear work properly in case of Samsung Galaxy Note 9

Could you post here your custom options.prop file? Please zip it first (because *.prop extension is not allowed to be attachment here)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] _alexndr:
It's because you have added Chrome.apk to the custom debloat list. Chrome can't be removed due to default Chrome WebView implementation in the developer settings (at least no in case you want clean install).

Side effect of removing Chrome is massive FC in case of clean install (impossible to setup the phone)

To be honest I have no big experience with custom fonts (never added custom fonts to my ROMs). Try iFont app:

Random reboot and SD card unmounting

Hello. I have a Note 9 SM-N960F on Verizon (USA). I have a Verizon SIM card in the phone.

I installed this ROM last night, and within minutes, the phone restarted suddenly before installing any apps or anything. I was just letting the ROM settle in. Later in the evening, the phone restarted a few more times, and came back without the SD card mounted. Restarting again caused the SD card to come back.

The same thing happened in Dr Ketan ROM (version Q03), which is why I installed the ALEXNDR rom (more stock, less problems!). I was advised in the Dr Ketan rom thread to flash CSC from a stock Q rom for my region (USA/Verizon). Unfortunately, this does not exist yet. However, I did flash the USA-Carrier-Installer v1.07 from the WETA telegram thread. This installs Verizon OXM. It did not help in either ROM. I still got the reboots.

I have installed the BL and CP files that are included in DrKetan's Q03 file package, so I have flashed the Q bootloader. (BL_N960FXXU4DSLB_CL17594460_QB28090386_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5)

In the Phone INFO app, I have a few missing values, which I'm told are problematic:

CSC Code tab: Missing Active CSC code, Missing CSC Country, and the list of Available CSC codes doesn't include any from my region.

Firmware tab: Missing CSC Version

This restart and SD card issue started immediately when I installed the Dr Ketan Q rom. I don't think it's a hardware issue with my phone or SD card for this reason.

Can anyone offer advice?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dvhttn:
Installed the Q bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DrPhant0m:
Yes, sorry. I installed the Q bootloader as advised in the Dr Ketan ROM instructions. I used the BL and CP that are included in Dr Ketan's "extract this first" file:

BL_N960FXXU4DSLB_CL17594460_QB28090386_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

CP_N960FXXU4DSLA_CP14697992_CL17580774_QB28067037_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

I'll update my post to show this.

Update: I made it worse... I attempted to re-flash the Q bootloader, and now my phone is in "Emergency Recovery" mode. I'm scrambling to find a way to get out. Any tips are appreciated.

Update2: I made it better! I flashed TWRP in Odin, booted into TWRP when it restarted, and was able to restore a TWRP backup from yesterday. whew!

My friend, I'll try to help again

Reboot to recovery and flash the CSC mod in TWRP and choose your carrier.

Then make a Backup of your EFT and Carrier Config partitions while in recovery mode.

Once you've done that, wipe data, cache and dalvic before changing ROMs (dirty flashing can lead to various issues unless recommended by the developer).

Then flash the ROM you want

Restore your EFT and Carrier Config backup you made.

Furthermore go to mount and Uncheck ext sd card. Then reboot.

Flashing the csc mod after a new ROM and rebooting works sometimes. But in other cases results in random reboots.

If you flash the ROM, then restore your backups you shouldn't experience the reboots. Don't give up...

Does the ROM install the latest modem, or do I need to get this from somewhere else?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DrPhant0m:
I will try this today. I've been advised to flash a full firmware via Odin to fix my random reboot problems. I'm prepared to do that, as well.

In your instructions above... do I do it ALL in TWRP before ever booting into the new ROM for the first time?

Also... I do not have "EFT" or "Carrier Config" backup options after flashing the 1.07 carrier tool, but I do have a few odd ones I've never seen before:

System

Data

Cache

DQMDBG Image

Boot

Recovery

CPDEB

Baseband

EFS

Vendor

ODM

I backed up the ones in BOLD. They're all relatively small. I figured I can selectively restore what I need. Any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bigron77:
Yes, everything must be done before your initial boot. After wiping data, cache and dalvic, flash the ROM and restore the EFS and ODM backup you made. Then unmount ext sd card and reboot.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DrPhant0m:
Oddly enough... I did this and installed DrKetan ROM in the process. There is an aroma installer, and I chose to install the 3minit clock and the samsung business card app during the install process. Normally, this works just fine. However, when I installed it and flashed my EFS and ODM partitions afterward... neither 3minit nor samsung business card app were installed. Additionally, I can't remove the stock clock or battery using the Rom Control app that's installed with the ROM. On the plus side... I don't think I've gotten any random reboots yet. :D

Is there any way I can make this work?

I've looked into installing 3minit manually, and it's not *hard* but there is more than just installing an APK. I'm not sure about the samsung business card app, nor removal of the stock clock/battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bigron77:
Happy to hear you are making progress. With regards to 3Mint, I have not had any issues with Mods displaying when I used Dr. Ketan's ROM. I do know if the essential fix is not applied, this can happen. I would try re-flashing the ROM. Then wait until the essential fix pop-up appears. Apply the fix, reboot, then log into the ROM. Hopefully that does it for you
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] DrPhant0m:
I did try reinstalling, actually. I also tried going back into the aroma installer and selecting the appropriate options but not checking "flash rom" so it would just apply the mods. I've applied the essential fix. Dr Ketan's guidelines to a smooth install say to go into Magisk first and make sure it's good... then apply the essential fix... then reboot. I did that both times I installed the ROM. The apps don't even install before or after the fix. They're not in the app drawer.

Unless there's something inherently flawed with restoring these partitions before the first boot that breaks the 3minit stuff... I think I can probably get it to work, even if I have to try to restore them with Titanium Backup or something.

Any suggestions?

Hmm. If I can remember correctly, you can keep your current CSC within the Aroma installer options of that ROM. Try re-flashing the ROM without restoring your carrier settings afterwards, to see if that makes a difference. Remember to go to mount within TWRP and Uncheck ext sd card before booting up.
