WETA NOTE9 TELEGRAM CHANNEL

WETA Update notification only channel - Update notifications​

This here is my personal setup and thought i'd share. Usually i test extensively before releasing to public, but if you do find something detrimental to the usage of your device that is either Force Closing or simply not working, let me know and i will in turn inform whether that is something i will tend to.

WETA is made for Music geeks like me, its main focus is stability and Audio. It is Based off latest firmware currently, and will always be using the most up to date firmware base.

This ROM is built from stock system images, decompiled and modded by me.​

2.0

Based off N960USQS1ARH6 PDA, September security patches

This is a base firmware update, i have decided to be bold and try basing off the usa 960U firmware as it has better security and overall updates.

*** You will need to wipe data for this update! or it will be crash city.

*** Ive been testing for 36 hours now and its as stable as N9600 firmware for me.

2.1

Added Carrier CSC/OMC/ODM to WETAmod app

How to use - You need to start by selecting an ODM file system to flash, this will give you the base to work from.

There are 4 USA options, TMobile, Verizon, Sprint and ATT. If you select one of these and apply, WETAmod will automatically

start a download of the filesystem zip, that once download is completed will bump you into twrp and flash for you. After rebooting,

you will have your stock ODM selection in place.

There is also a check box to add basic mods, such as call recording etc. This should be selected after you have booted once with your

chosen ODM selection.

WETA Kernel 2.1 - updated to RJ6 source, wireguard and ioschedulers added

Fixed V4A installer for the 2.6.x version

Added Bixby disabler switch - disables all bixby services

Rom now detects which ODM you are using and installs carrier apps if needed. This means you shouldn't have to flash ODM after a ROM flash.

Because this is based off of stock Samsung, gapps are included.

BACKUP EFS!!! this rom will not do this for you. I myself have bricked an s8+ that didn't have a backup...

Backup DATA!!! just in case.

Wipe Data if you are coming from another rom or version base if you have crashes or other issues before reporting.
