[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] NekoOtoko:
Last time I've used this rom 8.0 G960FXXU2BRGA with XEO region (open carrier Poland) but phone I did before was on bootloader U1 for sure, so diffrent soft.

As for security patch ver that is inside - I'm not sure (gave phone back some days ago). Sammobile says this rom has sec patch dated 2018-08-01.

If I deal with any stuff that relies on workarounds I always install the oldest possible software that bootloader allows.

If that's not working/not flashing, then the second oldest, etc.

Remember that after downgrading you might have to do factory reset/clear cache from recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Extreemator:
you call this whining when software developers do their assignments as drunkards. So that you could pass their incompetency is luck. And you just been here you squeezed through, again, because their incompetency and now you say that sung is amazing.

Judge for yourself I cannot downgrade from bootloader 3 to 2 on g9600. fail [abl]Fused 3 > Binary 2 (somebody tipped me that butloader is diwngradeble:rolleyes:). so there is no any way anymore to install 8.0.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] NekoOtoko:
Friend, please don't comment on this post, if all you offer is insufferable negativity and MORE whining.

I personally don't like Samsung and I don't have Samsung, and I don't think it's amazing.

XDA is a place I come to look for solutions and share knowledge of what I've myself found, if I can.

Downgradable bootloader in Samsung? :eek: Good luck with that.

No way anymore to install 8? :D

Both of those statements show you have very little knowledge about Samsung software, but with your attitude it's not bound to change anytime soon.

There are DOZENS of ROMs with boot 3 at Android 8.1

Took me whole 20 seconds to find this one https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note9/SM-N9600/CRC/download/N9600ZHS1ASB2/258387/

what's wrong with whinning and negativity, when there is time for it, you say as it's wrong (no). Maybe I don't have knowledge but you don't pay attention. this is not note 9. and there was no such thing as 8.1 for g9600 or g9650 Myślę, że musisz poświęcić kolejne 20s, aby zrozumieć, że nie wszystko można rozwiązać przy pomocy wyścigów cyrkowych
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] NekoOtoko:
Whining over and over again in the thread is counterproductive. You don't come here to offer or even accept any solutions. Just to went your frustration. It's pointless and a waste of time.

Boohooo, yes, not a Note 9 (I was just working on Note 9 so guess it stuck).

There, you've wated another 20s of my time, which I count as valuable.

8.0.0 for 9600 - https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s9/SM-G9600/CHL/download/G9600ZHS3ASB1/261092/

8.0.0 for G9650 - https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s9-plus/SM-G9650/CHL/download/G9650ZHS3ASB1/261140/

But maybe it's worth to show you, what a silly person you are.

Please stop wasting forum space, you will definitely not get any reply from me anymore.

After months of trying, I returned the phone to Samsung under warranty. They gave it back to me 10 days later, with Pie installed. They said they changed the motherboard!? I toggled the oem unlock switch and accepted the factory reset. Was expecting to have to wait a week, but no. I was able to immediately install twrp and root...

G965F/DS - G965FXXU1BRE3 baseband, may?2018 security?

I tried the data trick a million different ways for well over days fo messing with. Must be certain phones work and some don't. I'm in the states and bought from amazon. Anyhow I believe the procedure works for some, but not all.

***I did however have fantastic success with the Chimera tool as two other people suggested. So far I haven't been scammed for more $$$. I used AMEX anyway so they'll help me if something goes wrong. The Chimera tool worked brilliantly aside from the fact the buttons don't line up where you click! And, you have to use the tab key in order to pull up the "unlock" menu in the software.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] henok.gk:
I've been in this situation for quite a lot. My device is Galaxy A6 (A600FN), NOT S9. But since they're both shipped with android oreo I believe they have the same security system rather than, say S8 which shipped with nougat. What I want to point out is that even on the same android version different devices behave differently in this RMM situation based on which OS they are originally shipped. My issue was exactly what the OP mentioned, a never clearing RMM prenormal state with already unlocked OEM. But finally thanks to this guys whom developed Halabtech tool to bypass the issue by flashing oreo based combination file and rooting it in order to clear the never ending RMM state.

Their website doesn't look to have support for English language but here it is anyway, You may wanna ask them to support the S9.

Mod Edit: Link to external phone site removed

And here's the thread I followed to resolve the issue for my specific device.

I had the same problem and I kept searching and searching for one month everyday and still I didn't get rmm prenormal to disappear. Then, last week I bought credits for my sim card, and BAM! OEM Unlock Toggle appeared and when I checked out RMM State, it wasn't in Normal, neither was in Prenormal. The rmm state line simply gone all of a sudden as if rmm never existed, then I tried to flash twrp and it worked. Rmm was "disabled" somehow maybe? Idk (sorry for my bad english, I'm brazilian)

How check RMM state without rebooting to odin mode? Any suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] REMOTiE:
Unfortunately you can't from my understanding.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------

I managed to "remove" the RMM state from my phone recently. I waited for 7 days and did somehow it was still showing "prenormal". I continue using it for around 2 days and I thought of checking my rmm state again. Before i reboot, i disabled my developer options. Behold, my rmm state disappeared. I am not sure that disabling my developer options actually helped in the process.

Here are MY ACTUAL steps:

1. Flash the latest stock ROM I got from sammobile.

2. Disabled OEM locking (I believe this part is crucial. You cannot leave OEM locking enabled and wait for 7 days. I think RMM state will still be prenormal)

3. Waited for 7 days without reboot.

4. Reboot to download mode. RMM state still "prenormal"

5. Reboot and waited for another 2 days.

6. Disable developer options and reboot.

7. RMM state disappeared.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] StephenNP:
Hello everyone, I've waited 7 days without reboot and still have RMM State: Prenormal. But 7 days before I also had KG State: Checking which now disappeared. OEM Unlock button has always been available and activated since I unlocked OEM and did factory reset. So what should I do now to get rid of RMM State: Prenormal? Should I wait longer?

[Sony Xperia XA2 Questions & Answers] Simoneee:
Hi guys, I bought a Xperia XA2 and is a great device, except for one thing, or the camera, which has problems focusing. Let me explain: when I take pictures with the main camera before shooting the picture seems to focus and presents all the details, while when I go to see the camera taken this is blurred or not perfectly focused. I also tried with the camera manual but nothing changes, and yes, I also tried to put the object to be photographed to more (well over) 12 cm, but nothing. I also took the phone to assistance where I changed the camera but the problem persists. In the end I tried another camera app that seems to have solved the problem, but at the cost of taking pictures in 8mpx. The question then is: how can I resolve this error? And if I can not, which camera app would you recommend? Thank you so much in advance to those who will answer :laugh:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Makalo14:
Hi guys,

How can I prevent the freeze I get after about 30m-1h? I've searched all over the web for an answer but to no avail. I use bubbleupnp to stream TV channels (m3u or m3u8) to chromecast with my samsung s8, and the streams almost always freeze, it kinda pauses (still pic, no sound) and I have to go back to my tv app and press play again for it to start again in real time.

I tried everything, tried changing various settings but they always freeze after about 1h or sometimes less. Sound and video start to either play out of sync or stutter sometimes and after 1 minute or so, everything just pauses and the stream is kinda dead. Sometimes the freeze just happens without any signs or warnings. Not all channels behave like this, but almost all do. I tried using vlc and they work fine. So it is 100% something with Bubbleupnp. I tried using a server, same thing. I did buy the license and made a battery rule for it so it's not that.

PLEASE HELP! Feels like i paid for something that doesn't work at all!

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] cramhead:
henno.

I have a oneplus 3 and a dragonfly DAC and use USB Audio player PRO.

Spotify doesnt work with external DAC.

If i play spotify via the phone speaker then connect my DAC it will play using the DAC (kinda) but when I give permissions to USB Audio player PRO (Uapp) the playback stops but will continue to play via the headphone jack of my phone.

Is there a soution?

If I root? Change from stock ROM?

Thanks

Jamie
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] ZZ218:
No, you can only use Spotify with Android native driver for external DAC. You don't need permission for that, permission is only for apps that use exclusive mode while playing music like UAPP because of its own driver. Personally I don't use Spotify with external DAC because of lower volume and stuttering issues (native Android driver sucks). I only use UAPP with streaming via Tidal connected to Hifime 9018.

Edit: What I meant was Spotify will work with external DAC but the prompted permission once you connected the DAC is for UAPP. So just deny it and play normally using apps like Spotify, YouTube etc.

[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] Ellian81:
Hello,

I bought today a M5 10.8 with a cover with keyboard.

I am quite new to this set up, I was more used to have a tablet without keyboard. (Pixel C whose back light is not working since a few days out of warranty).

I tried to search and configure it by myself but I am missing some points for which you can help me.

1. Is it possible to have the PlayStore and Google Photos applications when you are in desktop mode? I can't find them.

2. I like the keyboard cover to type text but it is pretty heavy when you only want to read a comic or watch a movie in your bed (in pure tablet more).

How do you proceed? Do you have an extra basic cover for this usage? Is there some protection pads only for the corners?

3. How do you change the size of the fonts in Chrome in desktop mode? Currently the font is very big, as well as the tab headers which are taking around 20% of the height of the screen.

4. What are the mandatory applications for the desktop mode?

Thanks in advance for your help and advices.

Nice to hear that. I also nocited that my USB pen is not recognised. It works when I use it to flash anything, but not when the ROM boots.

It doesn't matter where you are. The screen just turns on/off all of a sudden in any app, even on desktop

I don't know if I may ask for customizations. If it's possible, please could you add the NFC toggle and the capacity to show when it's turned on/off on status bar? Also it would be nice if you could change brightness by slidding through status bar and button gestures (one tap, long press, etc.). Just if you want, it isn't a demand.

Hi there.

I agree there are some great Roms out there.

But, unfortunately, most of my favorite ones has lost touch (EpicROm, EU based custom rom etc).

I have tested about 97% Roms mentioned in this whole MI6 thread. Including official Roms.

Finally, I'm on LOS 15.1 (waiting for 16 to be Stable).

Hence, I was really excited to see PA here.

Hope it makes sense.

Apologies for the off-topic discussions.
