It does not really matter for those who care about having proper BL/CP version. The advantages of all-in-one package are:

1. Comfort / convenience for everyone - you need only one ZIP file and all done :cool:

2. It is really good noob-proof solution (don't get me wrong, some people just do not read OP carefully enough). If BL/CP/vendor are placed inside the ROM - I can be sure that I will not see here reports related to bugs which are in fact caused by not updated BL/CP and/or vendor

Vendor matched to the ROM is always flashed. For advanced users I left a way to bypass BL/CP update (method is described in post #1). However - it is recommended only for people who exactly know what they want to achieve.

Yes, should work well with S2ARK2

[MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION] The problem with BT unpairing after every restart is present with a clean install of your ROM (so I think that "auto" is selected, as you wrote in the first post, because I didnt change anything). I had to flash the magisk module in order to make it work

Thanks for this very nice Custom ROM you develop and maintain for the Galaxy Note 9.

I did the PhoneInfo app check - my actual CSC

code

is XSG (region = UAE/ AE) - the CSC

version

is OXM (i.e. different to the CSC code).

I am not having any native call recording option currently on stock-based custom ROM.

When on a call, I have the following options only:

- Add call

- Extra volume

- Bluetooth

- Speaker

- Mute

- Keypad

On the 3-dot menu the following options appear:

- Hold

- View Contact

- Send Message

Should native call recording work for me with any N960F stock-based custom ROM from the go? Or do I still need to activate it additionally, if so, how?

Thanks

after flashing ark2 (dirty flash over your arj4 ) it starts booting; the cache is rebuilt but before starting the laucher the phone reboots and restarts with cache building (such cycle never ends). rollback to arj4.

any hint?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] _alexndr:
In case of this ROM - YES (call recording is on-board)

In case of other custom ROMs - NOT NECESSARILY (may be added or not)

A special line is required in cscfeature.xml file placed in your CSC's directory (in your case it is /odm/omc/XSG/conf/cscfeature.xml)

<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAllowed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>

Have you placed a mod in {storage}/devbase/system/(priv-)app ?? ({storage} may be: internal memory, microsdcard or usb-otg). If yes - remove all mods and then try again. Maybe a mod you are using is not compatible with ark2

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] _alexndr:
So try to disable/remove them before update (or temporarily enable "Core Only Mode" in Magisk's settings). Nobody else reported such issue after updating so it must be mod or module related.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] elmor0:
Thanks for the quick reply.

I tried this just now, ensuring I followed your exact steps - The "cscfeature.xml" already contained all Korean(?) text when I entered the special line as per your instructions above - is this expected?

The end result was an extremely laggy phone with mobile reception coming on & off, and repeated FC message of "com.android.phone has stopped working" - Still could not see any native call record option. :(:(:(

Hey, one small question: I have installed audio modification library, then ainur Sauron. I found that this breaks Dolby atmos, so I removed them. However, I have the feeling that the dolby is still broken. A dirty flash should fix it? I also have viper, but Dr. Ketan has it in his ROM as well, so I think it is safe
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] aljaadi:
Let me help you find a way to enable the call recording option.

I have already tried this application and have already succeeded, and I hope you succeed as well in finding the solution by this application these steps:

● After opening the application and agreeing to grant the root powers, please click on the option as in the picture number one.

● Then choose: VoiceCall (See photo No. 2).

● Then option: Config Recording (See photo No. 3).

● You will be asked to place a new value, type: Recordingallowed (See photo No. 4).

● Restart the device.

Will give this a shot but..... first I need to fix my "com.android.phone stopped working" problem despite restoring the cscfeature.xml file back to stock.

I have tried wiping Dalvik/ Cache, and I have also tried re-flashing the custom ROM (which was working fine & lag free before with no FC). Any solutions please?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] aljaadi:
I don't know what the right solution is in this case. But I suggest you start by reinstalling the ROM again

(Wipe data is NOT required)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] ziotom2:
no way. core mode enabled. bootloop at the end of startup.

Inviato dal mio SM-N960F utilizzando Tapatalk

solved: there was a "working profile" installed that generated the bootloop. removed, upgraded to ark2 w/o problems. thx alexndr 4 support.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] _alexndr:
"Korean" text? ;) So seems like custom rom you are using have encrypted xml(s) - normally (while not encrypted) you should see normal text under Notepad++

Doenload and extract the attachment (cscfeature.xml for XSG CSC) - please replace your broken cscfeature.xml to fix FC (then - you can add line I mentioned again) :cool:

Next time - it would be much easier to help while using DevBase ROM ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
Just wanted to confirm that my own modded CSC features by adding few lines on the option.prop file is working great after upgrading to this new base ROM :cool: :good: no more redoing anything ever! :D:fingers-crossed:

If you want to know what I did... I have added [Capture Screen] , [Record Screen] , [Reboot Recovery] , and [UHQ upscaler] to the Quick Settings :cool::victory:

Here is some proof ;)

Thank you again for providing such an easy upgrade process without worrying about redoing my modded settings and of course.... my own tweaks :D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] elmor0:
Thanks for the help but too late for me!

Was at panic stations last night, and I decided to (dirty) flash your ROM to see if it resolved my problems:p - So far, so good:fingers-crossed:

Bonus - Native call recording seems to be there too now:D (Yay:good:)

Now, I just need the 3Minit clock & battery to work again.........
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] azZA_09:
Can you share the lines, please?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] toole:
How did you add reboot recovery please?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
Here is the lines that I have added...

<CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigQuickSettingPopup>KSA</CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigQuickSettingPopup>
<CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigDefQuickSettingItem>Wifi,SilentMode,Bluetooth,RotationLock,Flashlight,AirplaneMode,PowerSaving,MobileData,WifiCalling,Performance,BlueLightFilter,WifiHotspot,Location,Nfc,Aod,AllShareCast,DeviceVisibility,DormantMode,Sync,EdgeLighting,ScreenCapture,ScreenRecorder,VoLte,UHQ,TouchSensitivity,PersonalMode</CscFeature_SystemUI_ConfigDefQuickSettingItem>

Be careful because this is depending to my CSC... which is [KSA] as you could see above on the lines so... change it depending to your CSC that you are using :) for example (XSA or SER , etc...)

The benefits of modding the CSC is that if a feature doesn't support your ROM it won't cause any problems to you... so that is a big plus :D

You won't have all the options that I have for sure because it needs futher modding and tweaking your ROM :) which I can't help you because I literally rebuilt this ROM over DevBas ;) and I can't help you with this :) & even if it will work with others (which I extremely doubt it) can't share it without [MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION] permission :)

I'm not responsible for anything that will happen to your phone... you are at your own :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] azZA_09:
My curiosity is that Note 9 have a built in screen recorder? I didnt see anywhere this option
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
Yes it have.... and It is been there since Note 4 & Galaxy S7 :D but Samsung always hides it :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] kramer04:
I don't understand in which file you add these lines. Is it system/etc feature_default.xml or floating_feature.xml ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
I though the first post already mentioned how to add those codes on a option.prop file which is the easier way actually to me :D

but anyway.. if you want to have some adventure ;) go to ROOT--> odm--> omc--> [here choose your CSC that your ROM is using] --> conf --> edit cscfeature.xml and add those lines that I mention above ;) it must be after or under this line... [CscFeature_SystemUI_Support Recent]

to have a better idea to what I am talking about... look to my own cscfeature.xml file on my attachment... I use KSA CSC :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] elmor0:
Re. 3Minit Clock & Battery - I have installed these manually (as .APK) - seemed to install fine. I can open these Apps & choose my settings etc, but, nothing actually appears on my status bar relevant to these Apps - i.e. no 3Minit clock or battery in my SB.

There are no FCs or error messages to indicate something wrong either. Any suggestions how to resolve this?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] d.cortez:

Any solutions???

:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] dr.ketan:
Screen Record and Reboot recovery are not a stock Toggles (as far as I know) so it won't work that way. These are likely third party app toggles. I believe Since nougat third party app allows custom toggles.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] aljaadi:
Thanks doctor :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
Actually.. I moded my System UI :D if there was a third party app toggles.... I hope you don't tell me because I would feel that I wasted all my time learning how to modify System UI.... I guess I took the hard way :D I would never know that there's a third party app to add those toggles with a simple click.... until you told me now [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] .... I now feel devastated :( I wish I would knew earlier :o

Anyway... Thank you! :angel: but I gotta admit... screen recorder is stock since note 4... I simply added the lines on the CSC and I put the .apk on system/app in order to work [while the old method was to put it on system/priv-app]

But rebooting toggles needed to mod System UI :) of course after alot of bootlooping & errors... I successfully did it :D thanks to the Devbase it made my process much easier to recover from soft brick or boot looping state ;)

Hi, I just saw that you posted a new version of your rom with android pie, but for the s9, any chance that the note 9 will get it too?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Duncan1982:
There is no Exynos pie yet, although rumour has it that we might be added to the beta program. Whilst the S9+ Pie does boot on our Exynos Note 9's, there are obvious problems.

Just be patient it's our only choice......:p
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] mcgomfer:
Good too know, thanks. Although I didn't know that you can boot the s9+ Pie on the Exynos Note 9. But it's preferable, to wait a bit longer, for it to come to the Note 9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Duncan1982:
Dont go trying, it needs some edits, but yes it does boot, but things are not quite functional.....:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] mcgomfer:
Yeah I can imagine, although the s9 plus and note 9 are practically identical excepto for the.s-pen, I imagine there are files that aren't totally compatible, causing system failures. Will follow your advice and wait for android pie comes to the Note 9

This is very interesting work and just reading the op makes me want to test it out (device is shipping to me... soon ;)

One question for [MENTION=5150393]_alexndr[/MENTION] and anyone who's using US carrier T-Mobile is... is there a way to flash the CSC to enable carrier features such as volte and wifi calling? It is still unclear after reading the original post and searched thru this thread. Any information would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Da-BOSS:
Those features that you are asking is all related to CSC carriers and for that... I assure you it will support it [As long as it is there previously on stock ROM] but if it is not there previously on the stock ROM then I doubt that it will be there with DevBase ROM so.. it needs some little research from your side to find the right CSC codes to unlock it ;)

As DevBas ROM doesn't remove any features but it only adds features to your current default CSC stock :)

Still as long as I am confident enough and very sure about what I am saying... I must say I am not responsible for anything :fingers-crossed:

Scope of the rom

I absolutely enjoy the cleanliness of the rom and provided options in the installer. However, I would suggest somehow fixing the processes you see giving off errors in logcat. I think that a lot of roms are slow because of apps that sort of work but expect knox functionality and related packages that are disabled when there is 0x1 tamper causing them to repeatedly give off errors which , likely, some of are exceptions which take a hit on the cpu time. And I mean, this is not that exaggerating, you feel the phone getting warm in your hand even when you simply multitask.

In fact that's why my title is "Scope of the rom", because I think that every rom should prioritize stability of the stock components after 0x1 which are really the ones causing significant performance degradation. And of course adding features on top, like dr.ketan does, would only make the situation even worse. Personally, it would scare me away from the whole idea of even rooting note 9. Which I, strongly believe, lessens popularity of using root on later galaxy devices and which then affects reach of the upcoming roms. Yeah, and at this point there is no incentive to stay on samsung platform at all and switch to something like oneplus.

Thank you

Hello Alexandr, can you explain to me how I can activate the Call Recorder? I flashed your DEV-Base, but I can not find the option to record calls.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Jasper1224:
So basically this is a debloated version of Android, removed all samsung crap except the features it sells (i.e. the s pen and it's dial-like functions)? Just want to make sure before I consider buying this device and flashing this, cause I can't stand most of samsung's extra stuff, but it would be stupid to buy it and flash this just to lose functionality on the s pen.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Gandicela:

Yes. To requote it, he calls this "initially safe debloated."
