Yeah, I'm in the US, so Amazon is the likely source.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] flymacs:
I purchased the Amovo case:

https://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Note-...898636&s=gateway&sprefix=amovo,aps,467&sr=8-3

Mainly because the brown one matches my Metallic Copper Note 9 perfectly. It fits the phone really well and all the holes on the bottom line up exactly as they should. Also has decent coverage around the corners.

I haven't used the wallet very much, but the magnet is very strong and holds the phone solidly in place. The magnet is in the wallet and the phone case has 2 metal strips running down each side. Should work in magnetic car holders. No issues with wireless charging.

I like the iCarez screen protectors:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FMW9Q2B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Lots of holes along the top, but they all lineup really nice. Gives good coverage on the screen and doesn't interfere with the case I'm using. Also, it covers the rounded edges perfectly (some don't and allow dust to get under the protector).

Hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
I would highly recommend that your purchase the case for your device first, before purchasing a screen protector. So that they will both be compatible with each other.

I've the UAG case from here

Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Cases by UAG- Rugged, Slim, & Lightweight – URBAN ARMOR GEAR

https://urbanarmorgear.com/products/plasma-series-galaxy-note-9-case

Been using it since the 1st week I got my note and it's been great! Also, dont know about screen protector as I dont have one. I've 1 designated pocket only for my phone and nothing else. My note 9 has ZERO surface scratches on the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] RedRamage:
Anyone use the whitestone dome with a note 9? The thing looks impressive, but I'm a little worried about the cost and the "curing" process. Does it damage the screen if it needs to be removed/replaced later?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
The Whitestone Dome TGSP has served both the wife and I very well. Since complain about "spidering" of the Loca glue. That has only showed up, after a drop for us.

There is a similar item, that is a bit cheaper on Amazon, that I've read good things about, that I may try next, if the need arises.

Roopose Galaxy Note 9 Screen Protector Tempered Glass,3D

I have seven cases for my Note 9.

UAG Monarch - I don't like the way it feels. It's nothing like the cases UAG originally made.

Spigen clear TPU - I forget the actual name, but it's the one that's flexible. I don't like it. TPU is not my thing any longer.

Spigen Tough Armor - (2) It is grippy and feels good in the hand, seems like it would provide decent drop protection, I just don't like the buttons. They are flush with the side of the case.

Rhinoshield Solid Suit - I use it for weekend or light duty day carry. It's a bit slippery, but is low profile and slides in and out of pocket easily. The volume bottoms are a bit difficult to operate.

Samsung Silicone Cover - It's very grippy, but because of this collects lint and hangs onto it. I would use this for light duty day carry if it weren't for lint and debris sticking to it. It's called "ocean blue" but does not match the ocean blue Note 9. It's more of a grey.

Samsung Rugged Protective Cover - I like this case. It's very grippy, without being tacky and seems like it would provide good drop protection. Some folks thin it's too heavy. It is a bit heavier than other cases, but if I'm not doing a side by side comparison I get used to it. I actually measured this and the Samsung Silicone Cover on the Note 9 on a kitchen scale and the difference was, with Samsung Silicone 8.75 oz

and with Samsung Rugged Protective Cover 9.55 Oz. I use this case for work day carry.

WIRELESS CHARGING

We have 2 wireless chargers, CHOETECH Wireless Charger, Qi Certified Wireless Charging Pad & AUKEY Wireless Charger Qi Certified, Fast Wireless Charging Pad with 10W, 7.5W and 5W Output Levels, both were tested with the following cases. All achieved fast charging with screen off only. What an odd limitation to purposely build in. I was testing in order to see if a wireless charging nav dock is an option, but with no fast charge with screen on, the idea is pointless.

UAG Monarch

Spigen Tough Armor

Spigen clear TPU (I forget the name, it's the one that's flexible)

Rhinoshield Solid Suit

Samsung Silicone Cover

Samsung Rugged Protective Cover

I have not measured each one for thickness but I did measure the Samsung Rugged Protective Cover, which I believe to be the thickest of this bunch. The thickness of the back is approximately 3.6mm.

I've read some Amazon sellers state that their wireless chargers will not work on cases thicker than 4mm.

ETA, since the sun has finally appeared, here in the Pacific Northwest, I have noticed several small scratches on the Whitestone Dome Glass. It's been on my Note 9 for nine months. I don't think I ever noticed as many of any scratches on TGSPs I've used on previous phones.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JOSHSKORN:
I don't use a screen protector, don't think I really need one. Case, I have a ZeroLemon 10,000. Here are the downsides of the case, though:

No battery calibration - Once your phone battery runs low, you use the case as an external charger. I think this is all battery cases, though since you can't remove the battery and replace it with a larger one. I can go about 3 days without plugging my phone into the wall, though.

No DEX support - Remove the case for this

File Transfer is finicky - Remove the case for this

I haven't tried, but I heard it doesn't support NFC

No Fast Charging support

It's Heavy and Bulky!

The only reason I use it is because of the battery life, and I keep my phone in a bag, anyways. This case will more likely NOT fit in your pants pocket.

Oh, and also, I have large hands. It actually feels great to hold in comparison to just the phone. So, if you have large hands, that'd be another plus, as well.

I am Using honor 8 frd L02 emui 5.0.1....

And device is Rooted ...

I want the maximum possible frequency while gaming...and maximum allowed is 2.3ghz ... Kernel auditor works fine in setting up maximum performance at 2.3ghz(on demand as well as performance)... But after few minutes frequency sets to 1.8ghz or 1.5ghz... It maybe due to emui... But I don't want to switch to custom ROM as there are problems like camera or calling....

So what is the solution to overclocking the CPU....

I am thinking about using open kernel tweaks like AKT(advance kernel tweaks), or LKT(legendary kernel tweaks)... Will it solve my problem... Or is there any other solution ???
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] paulgault:
Hi,

does anyone know where there is a list of how long the project plans to support devices for??

Am looking for a new handset and the length of time that LinageOS plan on supporting a device could be a BIG factor in which bit of hardware to go for if i could only find this info.

anyone any recommendations for a budget device readily available on eBay (UK) that's likely to be supported for a while???

thanks, Paul.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] kurtn:
Sorry, there is no list. Most devices are supported by a single person. If that person finds another hobby, support will stop.

So it depends on how much love a maintainer has for your phone. There are old flagship phones better than new budget devices. Best example: [MENTION=2693412]haggertk[/MENTION] and Samsung S5

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Are you trying to downgrade to an older firmware? If so, your bootloader is probably blocking the downgrade, most Samsung devices can't be downgraded.

If you are trying to flash TWRP, your bootloader is probably locked.

There is no solution to either of these.

Hey mate, your device model indicates its a verizon one. This forum is for international exynos variant. Always search for your correct forums before posting. Ask it here :

Even this sub forum is for guides etc, not for help. Please post in relevant forums and subforums to get applicable solutions. And be sure to read the rules if you are a new user :)

As for your question, search or post on your relevant forum, your model has snapdragon processor and it has a locked bootloader. There was a method to root snapdragon variants using engineering kernel etc but I am not updated with the latest development on snapdragon variants. Search on your relevant forum for more info.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] ewingr:
I see one on Amazon. Doesn't really say who the seller is. But one post by a reviewer about using in U.S. said this:

So, I"m not sure about the move SIM card over and port number. Seems to me if I pull the SIM from my Note 9, I'd then not need to port a number. Thoughts?

Also, I'm concerned about getting one with the green edge problem. There's no warranty in the U.S. (Seems Huawei should warranty anyway...albeit with the problem of sending it over there).
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] efalis:
I use T-Mobile, so can't help directly. I'm pretty sure I just used the same sim card (it was back in November). The prices on Amazon are a lot better now than they were then! Great phone, lack of warranty notwithstanding.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] ewingr:
Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

I guess my main stumbling block right now is concern that I'd get one with the green screen problem.

I supposed I could fall back to the Mate 20. I understand it doesn't have that problem.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] chewdaniel:
the green screen problem is a bit overexxagerated imo....... it's not like u'll be looking at an empty black screen on minimal brightness all the time. i'm using the BOE screen which doesn't have this issue and i have a colleague who got the problematic LG one and frankly i don't see what the fuss is about. his screen looks better tho in normal usage scenarios
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] ewingr:
Thanks for that seat and back. Makes me feel a little better should I get one like that.

I'm not surprised to hear that, as that what happens, people like me read about it and then think it's worse than it probably is.

I did just find this video on YouTube which does show the green screen edge and gives you a good feel for what it's like. Definitely doesn't look like something a person would desire to have.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] DQScott95:
So I'm currently using RennovateICE because it was a super easy magisk install and didn't conflict with anything.

I've been looking at HavocOS and it's looks absolutely amazing. My question is, anyone who's tried it, is it better than the standard OOS and is it stable?

I also haven't flashed roms in a long time, so if I make a backup through TWRP first I can do a full restore of my current system as is if I want to revert back from Havoc OS correct?

Also if anyone can suggest their favorite rom etc I'd love to hear it, really in a mood to mess with my phone now that it's rooted.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] explosivequack:
To go back to oos from aosp you have to wipe internal storage because the monthly security patches usually change the encryption, aosp will always be on the most up to date security patch and oos is usually 1-2 months behind. There are ways to force in encryption but you have to wipe internal storage for it anyway, to go from oos to aosp you won't need to wipe internal storage. If you plan on trying a bunch of custom roms I recommend an app called Syncthing to backup your internal storage.

I've used havoc and aosip and I really like the customization of havoc, it's pretty stable for how new this phone is, but there's certain things that make oos better. If you use android auto, wifi calling, or certain streaming apps (most people mention twitch but I have issues with vimeo) then oos is better. Also some people have issues with the phone not being unlocked after installing some Magisk roms.

I've rocked havoc for about 2 weeks and just switched back to oos yesterday to try the new update out. I may try aoscp soon but really oos is pretty awesome especially with the Magisk roms we've got on here.

I feel like havoc has better idle drain than oos, but if I use YouTube music with the screen of oos has quite a bit better battery life, and I use android auto daily so having the stability there is also nice.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] DQScott95:
This is exactly the kind of comment I was hoping for. Is the customization and feel of Havoc less than standard OOS? Just looking at all of the features it looks kind of mind blowing how much is in Havoc, but the screen shots don't really show off any of the custom features. Is there anything (on the customization end) that really draws you to Havoc.

For example, in renovateice I have the battery bar up top and a couple of other little things to improve overall visuals around the phone.

Also how does HavocOS OTA's work? It says it supports OTA's in the description.

And my last question, just to refresh my memory. When I do a nandroid backup, exactly what options do I need to check to make a complete backup of my current system to restore? So that my phone is 100% how it is right now as am typing this out.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] explosivequack:
The customization of havoc is far superior to oos even with the Magisk modules, the modules get things pretty dang close, but there's a few things havoc has that probably won't be implemented into oos. When I was on havoc I really liked the customizations for the quicksettings, and a lot of people really like the always on display, I'm more of an ambient display person and oos has a bit better implementation of that.

Havoc has battery bar as well, and the color can be changed and a gradient effect can be added. Really the only thing that I wanted that I could get on oos is the dashed circle with percentage in it, but that's only because I didn't spend enough time trying to figure out how to get EdXposed to work stabily.

I don't think the ota system is implemented yet because they are still unofficial builds, but it's just an option in the setting, as of now you'll have to dirty flash in twrp.

The nandroid backup hopefully someone else can answer because I haven't done one of those since my nexus 5 probably, usually I just use titanium backup and set everything up from scratch.

Again tho, if you want to go from aosp back to oos you'll need to wipe the internal storage, I'd recommend backing up your whole sd card to your pc in case anything happens.

If you want some video guides there's a guy on YouTube called koogly who does things on the op6t, but everything is basically the same because they're both relevant a/b system devices.

Edit: I never had issues with stability or random reboots on either havoc or oos, a couple reasons I decided to go back is because if you turn nfc on on havoc it turns on and off until you reboot, the alarm volumes are much quieter, and the vibration strength in the 7/5 build is turned way up.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] DQScott95:
So a dirty flash just to update Havoc wouldn't erase my data or anything right?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] explosivequack:
Yeah
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] DQScott95:
Thanks for all of your help. So just to confirm :

If I just wanna test this for a bit, I can make a nandroid backup, wipe data, dalvik only, flash HavocOS, TWRP, GAPPS and Magisk, and I'll officially be on Havoc with root and twrp at that point correct?

Then if for some reason want to go back to my current OOS, then I have to wipe System, data, and dalvik then restore my backup, flash twrp and magisk again, then I'm back to normal correct?

Im so sorry for all of the questions. The last time I was flashing roms was on my LG Motion!! Just trying to get comfortable with the process again and talking about it helps alot.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] explosivequack:
Nah no problem, I spent time learning so might as well make it usefup.

Your first part is correct, however for flashing back to oos your internal storage will be encrypted with the newest security patch (july) while oxygen os uses June in this case. This means that all of your pictures and music and everything will be encrypted and oxygen will not be able to read or decrypt the storage. This means that when you want to flash back to oos you will have to completely wipe your internal storage, basically setting the phone to how it was from the box.

If you use an app called Syncthing it makes backing up and restoring super easy.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] harpin14789:
Is it possible to decrypt like on 5t and forward no verify so that I can freely go back and forth between AOSP and oos without wiping internal?

Which app do I use, syncthing or syncthing-fork?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] DQScott95:
You're amazing, thank you so much for all the help. I just download the sync app and I'm gunna back up and possibly test out Havoc later tonight when I'm off work :)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] explosivequack:
People in the havoc forums have talked about doing this and they say it's working, I haven't done it myself so I'm not sure how difficult it is or if you lose out on anything but it might be worth checking out if you plan on switching a lot.

I'm using Syncthing on the phone and synctrayzor on my pc.

Edit: may have seen the no verify in the twrp section.

Best of luck and happy flashing.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] reaper000:
This is the xda thread that's the source of the no_verity.zip that disables forced encryption upon initial boot up of a freshly-wiped internal storage.

https://xdaforums.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389

I used its previous version successfully to become unencrypted and therefore move between OOS and Havoc at will on the OP6, and have used it since OOS 9.5.6 on the OP7pro without issue. As soon as the AOSP roms mature and I can confirm full functionality on Verizon, I'll leave OOS.

One last tip: keep your internal storage backed up on a USB otg drive that's loaded with the latest OOS, TWRP installer zip, Magisk, and no_verity zip. After the 6T, I don't leave home without that if any flashing is a possibility...
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] ajsmsg78:
Havoc has tons of customization and is probably my favorite rom along with Resurrection Remix but the fingerprint scanner and double tap issues made me try AOSIP which was much more stable and has similar features. On both roms the fingerprint scanner didn't work as well as stock and it was annoying. AOSIP has an always on fingerprint scanner which is really cool. I ended up going back to stock OOS and flashed Renovate. Basically if you don't mind the fingerprint scanner not working well and the speakers being slightly lower in volume then you'll like Havoc. Give AOSIP a try as well, you won't be disappointed.
