Please excuse me, i did try looking around but I've been out of the loop for a few years.

I understand that rooting an S9+, Snapdragon (Rogers) is possible. Whats the best way to root it without having things like 80% battery/fingerprints not working? as close to a full, "normal" root as possible so i can install this ROM?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
If you have a U or U1 model, you can't. There is only one method available to you. And this rom is not compatible with your model.

Galaxy S9 Exynos9810

When I first saw this thread on XDA I was happy to find the best ROM ever now for my NEW device. But suddenly I realized that the ROM is made for Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and mine is on Exynos9810 ( model SM-G960F "starlte").

I believe your ROM doesn't suit my device. Or DOES?

Or may be, you have developed HavokROM for Exynos9810 and I simply couldn't find the proper thread on XDA?

Thank you anyway :)

Best AOSP rom for galaxy S9 Snap
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] u0aol:
So after a week or so of solid use I'm really happy with the speed of this build, it handles most everything I've thrown at it. I do however get multiple systemui restarts when changing between WiFi/Bluetooth/Cellular status and app switching and as much as Iove the extra performance I don't feel my battery lasts as long.

I'm also missing some of OneUI and it's been so long since I last used Lineage that I feel newbed by it.

Couple of questions, if I may:

Jumping back to rooted stock without tripping RMM, am I missing a trick or is waiting the 7 days before flashing back TWRP mandatory?

And:

Does anybody have any good apps/mods/customisation you are using with this ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] OiledGila:
Hello,

My phone model is SM-G965U. I do not have the ability to enable OEM unlock. However, it seems I can root the phone with the Extreme Syndicate root.

I am interested in installing this ROM for my phone. If I root the phone, will I be able to install the ROM following the usual instructions or do I really need the unlocked bootloader from the OEM unlock option which I do not have?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
Yes. You really need to have an unlocked bootloader.

stuck on lineage boot logo after flash the ROM

Hello I have S9 G9600,

I'm stuck on lineage logo after flash the ROM I waited more than 25 minutes after I did these steps:

- Disable OEM

- Install TWRP with SAR using Odin

- Install multidisabler and forceencrypt_disabler_q for Android 10 to disable dm-verity (otherwise your phone will be stuck at bootloop).

- Install ROM

- Install OpenGaApps

- Install magisk

- Reboot

Any suggestion?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] FedericoPeranzi:
After first boot, you have to force reboot and the the rom will boot.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] caio_barreto:
Sorry, but exactly when I need to do this? After flash the room first boot I need to wait to go the lineage screen and force reboot? or before that?

After my 25 minutes, I tried to reboot again and was stuck in the same place

Thanks a lot for your reply
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
The instructions state that after a clean flash you need to force reboot after a few minutes while on boot animation.

Did you flash gapps? Did you flash magisk? Did you format data? (Not just wipe, I'm talking about where you have to type "yes")
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] caio_barreto:
Thanks for your reply.

I tried to follow the instructions on this thread, but I think some important details were missing.

Let me review all my steps:

- wipe ( system, data, and cache)

- Format (because the partition was not showing)

- Flash multidisabler and forceencrypt_disabler_q

- Format

- Flash ROM

- Flash OpenGaApps

- Flash magisk

- Reboot

- Wait 25 minutes on lineage boot screen (I didn't understand the force boot was after 2 minutes, I didn't find this instruction)

- I tried to boot again and wait more 10 minutes on lineage boot screen...

So what I did wrong was only the force boot after 25 minutes? Did I need to do this after 2 minutes? that's it? Or I need to format at the end of all flashs?

Thanks a lot for your work and help.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
I do not know what is wrong but I do know that no time is specified. But certainly don't want to loop for 25 minutes [emoji15].

Are you on Android 10 firmware?

For some reason a few people can't seem to boot lineage. I do not know why. It boots for me and many others every time.

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] wyt18:
thanks for the rom and the help. I tried it exactly the way you describe, and can boot into the rom, but am not able to pass SafetyNet. what needs to be done to pass SafetyNet?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
Since the latest magisk doesn't turn on magiskhide by default you'll need to turn that on in the magisk settings and rename the magisk package.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] wyt18:
thanks for the quick reply. that worked!
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] FedericoPeranzi:
Thanks Bro !
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] Natan_Gameron:
The three options of vibration intensity: High, medium and low correspond to one: High, when trying to change to low or medium it is still strong equal to High. Since the intensity is buggy I had to leave the touch feedback turned off.

A suggestion that I give is to put the control of the intensity of the lantern.

And the last suggestion is to block the shutdown of the wi-fi or mobile data and even the device, when the device is locked (as long as you do not enter the password), so it will be more secure and will prevent thieves from turning off mobile data and so avoid being tracked.

This ROM is getting excellent and very complete, congratulations!

Hello,the rom runs very smoothly.

I have a problem :SIM Card 2 has no sound when calling.But this is not the case for SIM Card 1. I tried to exchange the two cards, but the problem still exists.So I believe there is no problem with my sim cards. What should I do to solve this problem?

Thank you very much!!

A month ago, after desperately trying—and failed—to root my Samsung s9 Plus Android 10, I was told by the ChimeraTool staff that: "unfortunately the Samsung closed the Exploit in the new Firmware versions. Which means the exploit that our Tool used for the mentioned services is closed."

This is while going through the Odin flashing process: https://imgur.com/IdtSFST

This is the message I'm getting on the device: https://imgur.com/moq0RhV, and https://imgur.com/GmbKpCt

Has anyone faced this situation before? Can this be done?

Needless to say that any pointer will be highly appreocated.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
Well.... Sorry to tell you but you're not in an exynos support thread. You have an exynos model.

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
I haven't had anyone try on att. But I would think that you'd be fine. On Verizon lte data works with no issues. Just make a backup of your current setup before flashing to lineage.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] d_g_m_2000:
hello OP,

first, thank you very much for your hard work, i really apreciate. i love lineage os since it was cyanogenmod and i hope you get this device to it official support.

i'm new with this device so i have a noob questions an dhope you can help me.

is the last build a daily driver? 'cause this is my only device.

how is your battery life? 'cause i'm on stock and had from 60% to 32% overnight drain.

how about the cameras? slowmotion works?

in your first post you say: "Bootloop on first install (must force reboot after clean install)" what does this mean? do i have to wait for lineage logo bootloop then press power button to force it turn off and then press power button again to it bootup normally?

thanks in advance for your comments and again, thank you very muich for your work.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
Battery life is good. I've had many reports that it is better than stock.

It is certainly daily driver suitable unless you are on Verizon carrier.

There have been successful camera options with gcam. The stock lineage camera does not support slow motion.

Your understanding of the force reboot on first install is exactly correct.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] d_g_m_2000:
thank you very much for your fast reply.

sorry to bother you again, how about biometrics?

finger scanner, face recognition, iris scaner, sensors?

thanks in advance for your comments
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
Face and iris scan is not standard for lineage. Fingerprint and everything else works proper

hard press home button is not working

Hi,

I haven't found any way to activate the hard press home button, it seems to be lost all it's functionality, do you know if there is any way to activate it again. I love to unlock my phone just to press the bottom center of the screen :D.

The rest of the functions are awesome with the ROM.

Thanks in advice.!
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
There is only the standard experimental desktop mode but it's not near as polished as Dex is. I think there's a guide somewhere on xda that shows you how to do it.

There is no way currently. It is on my list of things to do.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] d_g_m_2000:
hello,

after flashing lineage and opengapps i unplugged usb cable and reboot it. i'm on the lineage logo bootloop, try this force reboot by pressing just "power" button but my device won't tunr off. i plug it back and press power and it did turn off, press again power button but i'm still i'm on boot logo. plugin and plug out does make windows sound like when connecting any usb stick but stiill on logo loop.

up on the first screen it says in yellow: warranty bit: kernel

i guess so
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] d_g_m_2000:
well i try again but still stuck on bootloop

what i did was:

i flash twrp from kablit's post (the sm-g9600 one), i did not flash custom kernel 'cause i only saw for pie and i'm on Q, then boot up in recovery where i set "only read" mode, flash kablist's miltidisabler 2.2 and wipe data (typing yes), the i reboot on recovery where i wipe system-dalvik-cache.

then i flash kablit's lineage built, then open gapps nano then magisk 20.4, the reboot.

the first attemp i wait for 10 minutes of bootloop, then i press all buttons for like 7 seconds and it reboot... but after that it still has the bootloop.

hope you can guide me if anyone have any idea of what should i do.

right now i'm on stock android Q august security patch

thank you very much in advance for your comments.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
Sounds like you are still forceencrypt. You'll need to remove forceencryption. In the twrp thread is a file called forceencrypt_remover_q.zip.

Flash that and format your data partition.

Safetynet?

I have read through this thread and I'm confused over the safetynet status?

On one post it says some fixes were added to pass safetynet, however on later posts it mentions Magisk?

There is also official LineageOS 17.1 support for the S9 & S9+ so what are the advantages of this unofficial build over the official ones?

I am looking to replace my trusty Galaxy S6 that I have been building LineageOS 15.1 for. Everything except the camera works perfectly on my ROM - SafetyNet passes without Magisk or any other spoofing/root app, Google Pay works, my banking app works (Santander UK), Netflix works and Sky Go works. I can live without Netflix & Sky Go (although I'd rather they worked) but I can't live without Google Pay and the Santander app.

Before I make the decision to get a new handset I need to be sure that I can install LineagOS 16.0 or 17.1 (and ideally build it myself), SafetyNet needs to pass without any trickery (Magisk etc) and Google Pay & online banking apps need to work.

Will this ROM do this for me? If so is there a local_manifests XML anywhere so I can build this myself?

Andy
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
I can't recall if it passes safetynet without magisk as I haven't run without magisk in a while. But the difference between official and my unofficial builds are they are for different devices. My builds are for snapdragon models and the official builds are exynos models. Just read the device names carefully. Everything needed to build it yourself is linked in the op. I do not have a local manifest as I haven't had time to make one. Newer devices are handled with safetynet much differently now. I will check to see if it passes safetynet without magisk though. I just can't remember.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] ADB100:
Ah, sorry. Different markets and different processors but the same model number... :eek:

I'm in the UK so I think its the Exynos variant I'd be getting?

I'm also looking at the Google Pixel phones (4 & 4XL) as these are on the list I can pick from and I am guessing the Stock ROM won't be that much different from LineageOS anyway?

Cheers

Andy
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
You very likely get the exynos model. The pixel phones are not like lineage though. They have a different experience which is more Google. Lineage is less Google if you understand what I mean. Not sure if I can explain that well enough lol
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] ADB100:
With my S6 builds I always flash OpenGApps Super with a customisation file to remove some apps and some keyboard languages - however most of it is still there so I think I've got a fairly 'Google' experience. What main differences I am likely to see?

LineageOS 17.1 has gone official for Pixel 3 & 3 XL so I am hoping it will make it to the 4 & 4 XL?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] klabit87:
For me, there's more to the Google experience than just flashing gapps. My pixel 2xl is completely stock and I can see and feel the difference. All lineage builds are the same for various devices so whatever you experienced with lineage previously can be expected to be similar. Lineage has more features than the main aosp source (not to be confused with the stock Google firmwares in pixel as they are different). Of course there are other ROMs available that have even more features like Havoc or Resurrection Remix.

Expecting official status for any device is not very reliable. It just depends on developers willingness to put the time and effort into making it official. Sounds like you have a bit of experience though. If your next device doesn't have official support then you can always make it and apply yourself [emoji2] that is what I am working towards at some point. I just don't have the time I used to in order to dedicate to the project. But I will eventually get there.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] ADB100:
If it get's approved I think I'll stick with the stock firmware for a while unless its awful. I need everything to work (SafetyNet...) and I won't have the luxury of a spare I can test things on like I do now with my daily S6 and my wife's old S6 Edge with a cracked screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] Enfield:
I've just installed this ROM on my galaxy s9 and have noticed a difference in audio quality. Searching the internet tells me that the stock ROM includes Dolby Atmos, is there a way to install this (assuming its missing)?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] GrippingSphere:
I'm not sure about Dolby Atmos, but Viper 4 Android produces a very good audio quality. Installed as a magisk module on a rooted phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels] -Luigi.:
Can someone tell me if the audio recording quality is good in this ROM such as on the official one?

I mean audio when recording videos or whatsapp/instagram/telegram voice messages....

Specially in loud situations when it would distort/clip the audio.
