Hi,

I have been using this ROM for probably a month or so. Yesterday my battery was drained so the phone was turning off by itself. I then charged the battery to full and turned on the phone but it stuck at a screen saying "Encryption Unsuccessful" and it asked me to reset the phone. However, the on-screen reset button didn't work.

Next, I tried to boot into TWRP recovery but failed too. Phone went into bootloop between TWRP screen and 'Galaxy Note II' startup screen. Bootloop happened for around 10 minutes then suddenly it got into Download mode.

Now the phone is stuck in Download mode.

Can you help how to fix this?

What is the "Experimental HBK" build and what is "HBK"for?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] MartinX3:
"The only difference between the normal and experimental one is the kernel. I feel like I haven't tested the other kernel properly yet that's why it's experimental.

There were some minor kernel panics with the experimental one. I've applied some patches addressing it. But if you use it and face kernel panics, send me logs" - AndroX99

You'll have to format the data partition (including internal storage) using TWRP or the stock recovery

No issues with normal or BT calls for me with the new build. I'm using the FNG1 modem btw

home button does nothing and i think the normal act for it is minimizing the apps and when i change the setting for it nothing happen ( from the first build of this rom not just in the last update )

Since my TWRP was lost, I tried to install it using Odin but failed :(

It seems like a sign of a damaged emmc. Try flashing the pit file and if it fails I'm afraid your emmc might be damaged

Are you sure your home button is not damaged ? I can use it normally and can enter Google assistant by long pressing it
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] AbdAbd10:
i think it is from my device when i hard clicked it from the top. it started working hahha my bad i guess even though it was working fine when i was using RESURRECTION REMIX but i guess some time problems happing in the same time when u do something else ( changing the rom ) and you think it is because of it sorry for bothering you
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dvn2008:
yeah I have just tried PIT + TWRP, stock roms, and PIT + Stock ROMS but all failed:crying:

my phone was free from the Sudden Death Syndrome /eMMC bug, not sure why it is now got damaged.

I remember my phone started got this "Encryption Unsuccessful" just a few months ago while I was using some other custom 7.x ROMs

i flashed your nice rom and its in battery live very well

thanks

my pls. how can i use it only with dark/black theme ???

i hate white themes that not good for eyes and batery live...
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ishtiak02:
Settings>Display, there's theme right at the bottom. You can change it to black. It'll only affect the ui and not apps.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Mythtr:
Proximity sensor Disable programs will work. You can look at Google play.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ishtiak02:
You should calibrate the proximity sensor instead of just disabling it.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ishtiak02:
The display should turn off only if you put your finger or ears on the proximity sensor. If it's doing otherwise, the likely solution should be calibrating proximity sensor.

You can use the CPU z app to test if your proximity sensor is working properly first
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] prensipci:
no thats not what i mean

dark system ui like kitkat TW or suchlike

[IMG="kitkat TW"]https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img921/9550/1c1NZL.jpg[/IMG]

what kind of logic does the android system developers

make all the system only white themed, it's not good for battery life and also not good for eyes ???

BT headphones work just fine, but file transfer is still broken. Now one can send files, but can not receive them - process freezes on 83-87%.

Also, I've encountered device sleep issues. It active all the time (no deep sleep at all) so 40% of battery drain thought the night with WiFi and Data off.

Main consumer is LogD service.

gapps error 70 gives error, there is no error in other rom,stock gapps flashed
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ishtiak02:
You can use substratum black/dark themes for full dark ui. They might degrade performance. Google is introducing system wide dark mode from android Q

---------- Post added at 10:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 AM ----------

You can disable logD(Google it). No problems with it here, something of your setup might have triggered it.

Use a smaller gapps package instead of using stock gapps

I have a "H96 Pro H3 S905X" Dongle and I think I bricked it... Please help!!!

(This is a repost of a thread I created here. I think I posted in the wrong section.)

Hi guys,

As the title says...

I have the following H96 Pro H3 S905X dongle

I've been trying to find information about my issue now for hours and I've tried various different methods and I just cant seem to get my issue resolved. So let me give you some background information and then I'll tell you what I've tried.

Basically the device came rooted with an app called "SuperUser" (I think???) and I wanted to install Supersu. So I tried to install the APK and when I opened the app, it wanted to do something with the binaries, which I let it do. I got a message saying "If nothing has happened within 5 minutes, then I should reboot my device.". So I let it sit for about 2 minutes and the installation (or whatever it was doing), failed.. It told me to "Reboot my device and try again". So I rebooted the dongle, I got the normal H96 Pro screen and then after about 10 seconds I got the "MBOX: Make yourself colorful" splash screen. Now usually this takes about 5-10 seconds and my dongle boots into the Android OS. But not anymore... It just sits on that splash screen and does absolutely nothing.

So I've come to the conclusion that I've probably bricked my device...

I've found a LOT of guides online regarding my device but most of them are for the box version of my device and the one video I did find for a H96 dongle was for a different version, it wasn't the S905X.

The first guide I found was to download the .img file for my dongle (which I did) and use an app called "USB Burning Tool". But I quickly realised that to do this, you need a USB Male-to-Male cable, which I don't have. So I couldn't progress with this any further.

Luckily, I found another guide which used an app called "Burn Card Maker", which I could load the .img file onto a micro SD card and boot from it on the dongle. This is the path I decided to take...

So I downloaded:

s905x016.H96_PRO_Dongle_2G(16)_HS2734A_7.1.2018.01.27.16.15.img

I used the app to write it to the SD card (2gb) and when it was finished, I ended up with 3 files:

[LIST]
[*]s905x016.H96_PRO_Dongle_2G(16)_HS2734A_7.1.2018.01.27.16.15.img
[*]aml_sdc_burn.UBOOT
[*]aml_sdc_burn.ini
[/LIST]

I popped the micro SD card into my dongle and this is where I'm stuck... I cannot get the dongle to boot the SD card.

I've tried just putting the SD card in, powering the dongle on and waiting,

I've tried popping off the dongle case and holding down the tiny reset button with my nail,

I've tried holding down the tiny reset button before powering the device,

I've tried powering the device and then holding down the tiny reset button,

I've tried rapidly pressing the tiny reset button,

I've tried pressing the tiny reset button 3x and then holding it...

Everything I try just leads to the same outcome... H96 Pro screen for 10 seconds, MBOX spash screen...

Please someone help me!! I'd appreciate it so much, Its doing my head in.. I've learnt my lesson.. Never to mess with root :(
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
I realise this question has probably been asked countless times but here we go. I have a SM-G960F but it is has a H3G firmware. I want to change it to BTU. Can I flash the latest BTU build, and use CSC instead of HOME_CSC as well as other files. Like, will this work without issues? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Yes, when it boots up it will likely be in German or something, on the first screen there will be some text with two options to press, you need to press the button that (In German) says reset the device, if you press the wrong button just boot to recovery and factory reset manually

On the next boot it will be in English
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Why German? And would that be on the set up? Like when you first boot and it says welcome?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Just what it defaults to before the CSC changes when you factory reset, SIM card determines CSC when you flash Multi-CSC like BTU is, but only after the reset

And yes, very first screen it shows after the Samsung logo
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Okay. I've rooted and flashed stock since S5. It's because this is my new S9, I dont wanna mess it up.

Edit: Thanks alot for your reply
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
I did the exact same thing you're about to do with my G960F too, mine was on O2 and I needed BTU or XEU for the Pie Beta, so I flashed the exact same way (Make sure to use ODIN 3.13.1)

It will likely give you XEU not BTU, makes no difference really they are both UK unbranded/unlocked firmwares and you get updates directly from Samsung instead of your carrier
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
What about doing *#272#Phone’s IMEI#. Would that bring up an option to change?

That's also why I want to flash, get update for Pie faster.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
No because your current CSC does not contain BTU or XEU, it is a single carrier CSC

Not sure that works now anyway, Samsung have added a lot of security additions to prevent us from playing, even to the point of not being able to update system apps via apk

Don't be worried about using ODIN, it is Samsung's own internal flashing tool in the first place, as long as you flash AP, BL, CP and CSC together and do not have any disconnections during the process you'll be fine
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Alright. I appreciate your help.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Once you've flashed BTU/XEU you can flash DBT (German) Android Pie using HOME_CSC and it will not change your CSC, but you'll have Android Pie, that's what a lot of us have done until the UK receives it
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Nah, I ain't gonna go that far. Would I still be able to get latest beta though?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Beta program has finished now, final is out in a few regions such as Germany (DBT)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Right. I'll switch to BTU anyway. Thanks again
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Yep. It worked exactly how you said, German first to. I'm now on XEU. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Nice one :)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Wait. I wanna do this. How does it work? Like flashing home CSC for DBT doesn't change the csc, but gives pie? How would I do this?

And does this still mean when it is pushed to UK it will be available, or will I need to re-flash?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Yep, HOME_CSC will not change your CSC, and DBT is included in BTU Multi just as XEU is, so it is quite happy leaving your CSC alone

Once the UK receives Android Pie, just do it again the exact same way with HOME_CSC and you'll be set for OTA updates from XEU again

No data lost, no reset of phone, just a nice quick way to get Pie now
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Perfect, I'll do it now.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
:good:Same as yesterday but use HOME_CSC instead of CSC

And obviously the Pie DBT firmware this time
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Yep! Worked a treat. Thanks a lot mate. One question, when it is released for XEU. I download that and install with Odin using Home csc right? And it'll work without issues?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Yep, just the same as you did just now and you'll be officially set for XEU and will receive OTA updates as normal

You're basically running the exact same as I am now, via the exact same method, and that is what I will be doing once it arrives
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Thank you very much - I've said that a lot but still.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
No probs, pretty much what XDA is for anyway :)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Does it matter if security patch is different? I have a funny feeling XEU Android 9 will be January Patch. That doesn't matter right?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
No, doesn't matter, you're flashing a full firmware not an upgrade so doesn't matter if it's older or newer, only thing that does matter (For downgrading) is the bootloader version, you cannot downgrade the BL

You can see which version your phone is running in Download Mode (BL:1 or 2 or 3) and you can see which version the firmware contains here G960FXXU2CRLI <<< Version 2
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
Right.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] killahtm:
hi, i have flashed pie and got G960FXXU2CRLI.

will i get updates thru ota?

cause this rom is not from my region :)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Nope, you'll have to flash your region once it arrives if your CSC is not from that firmware
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] killahtm:
ok tnx, and then again i use CSC (not home_csc) or?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
I believe you would use home CSC. As your CSC shouldn't have changed when you flash pie. If it did change to the region you flashed, you will have to flash csc instead of home CSC, but that will restart your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] killahtm:
kk tnx, i have time cause in my country updates are very slow :p
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
If you're not changing CSCs you just use HOME_CSC
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] m.gh1999:
Hi Guys,

So i flashed Germany pie rom (used CSC not home_csc) but my csc in settings is still what it was before. So i tried to find a way to actually change the CSC but i think we still don't have a way to change it on S9(correct me if I'm wrong). Do u know a way to do that? cause i really want to switch to Germany to get updates faster.

So now i want to know this: Will i get OTA updates as updates get released for Germany or not?? i think not because of the csc!!! and if no then will i get ota updates when they get released for my county ?? i think nope but i need someone to confirm me to be sure.

so if i want to get ota, i need to flash pie when it gets released for my country again but using Home_CSC instead???

am i getting this all right???

maybe [MENTION=4369943]*Detection*[/MENTION] can help.

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Did you factory reset after flashing? (Not the auto reset, actually manually from recovery?) That changes the CSC

The other reason it won't change is if you are already running a CSC included in the Multi-CSC, so for example you cannot change from XEU to BTU because they are both in the same OXM Multi_CSC (OXM contains DBT too and many many other CSCs)

If you flash the firmware for a different region CSC, but your CSC does not change, you will not receive OTA updates at all, you will have to flash back to your region CSC once it is released, this is the situation OP and myself are in right now, running DBT firmware with XEU CSC
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] m.gh1999:
Thanks for the reply

Nope I didn't do any factory reset from recovery and I think it wouldn't work cause as you said, the Germany ROM is multi-CSC. I saw people doing CSC changes by flashing combination files but I saw people saying that it's not working on s9 series. The best thing here for me is to be able to change csc cause in my original csc, the O2 sensor is disabled. Not that important but having it enabled and also having fast updates arey main reasons I'm trying to change csc.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
What is your original CSC ?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] m.gh1999:

If you put a UK SIM in the phone and factory reset it would change CSCs but would change back once you put your own SIM in, or at least would complain that you needed to reset the phone

Not sure if you would need a connection on that SIM or not though
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] m.gh1999:
Where did you find that list???

And I got an idea, can I flash a ROM without THR in it so it will force the csc change and then, flash Germany to get DBT? Is that possible?? 1

---------- Post added at 03:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 PM ----------

Hmm, I know you can change the csc with flashing combination files on s8 and it won't complain about the Sim being from somewhere else but on s9, I have no idea

I might be able to get a UK Sim from a friend but I need to be sure that it works which I'm not
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
It would work. I flashed XEU, which is in that list, to change from H3G. And on my first boot it was German, but due to my English sim, it told me to restart. I did and then it was XEU in English.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Just Googled "OXM Multi CSC" and I think reddit had that list

And no, it will default back to your original CSC because it is also included in the Multi-CSC

OXM is the MultiCSC, which contains THR and DBT and BTU and XEU etc etc, if your phone was originally one of those, you cannot switch between them without changing SIMs

Reason me and OP could do it was because our phones original CSC is not included because they are carrier single CSCs, so the phone defaults to the SIM region CSC which is XEU, so for example now we could not switch to DBT without changing SIMs to a German SIM

Don't know about combination firmwares, not used them
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] crossdeath:
My S9+ was originally CRO/CRO/CRO (Croatia, T-Mobile). I then flashed DBT Pie because I couldn't wait for my carrier to release the update. I used HOME_CSC because I wanted to keep my files. When my phone rebooted, Android Pie was indeed installed, but when I went to check my CSC, it was XEU/SEE/CRO. No sign of DBT. Is this because I used HOME_CSC, not regular CSC? Also, I didn't receive the CSA2 OTA update, I had to flash it manually using Odin (I was on CRLI).

---------- Post added at 09:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

I now flashed SEE Pie 9.0 (CSA2 update) and still, the CSC is showing XEU/SEE/CRO. I used HOME_CSC again.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] abrarahmed02:
I've now flashed XEU. How can I verify that I am on the latest XEU?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Settings > About Phone > Software Information

But there is only 1 release for XEU Pie so you are on the latest if that's what you flashed

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Yep, long as CSC and firmware match

I just did the same this morning, flashed using HOME_CSC so now firmware and csc match (XEU)
