I tried blind reboot to download mode (power+vol down and vol up + vol down + usb cable when it vibrates) but it didn't work, nothing shows in Odin... Only vibrates on power + vol down. It's not a screen issue because I did put a SIM in it and called, but nothing. Any other advice please?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] tiho5:
I can't make myself like the rounded screen corners of the S series. To me the Note screen is the only proper screen shape. I didn't expect this to be such a big problem for me, but once I held the S21, I couldn't wait to get back to my Note again.

And the fold series - this isn't a phone that you can use only one of your hands to operate. I need a beast phone, but one that I can use with one hand only when I need to. Therefore those fold phones are never going to be my first choice.

I hope the Note series survive and looking very much forward to a Note 21 ultra.

Dr. Ketan,

I see that you updated the Bootloader and TWRP. Will we need to flash those if we are already on R03? Can I dirty flash R04?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
Always recommended to flash newer available in download area
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] FACAF:
But for N985F isn't new bootloader, right? Need I rest with the bootloader for R01?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
I meant always flash if newer available in download area.

Hi dr

I backed up with twrp and at the end I cleared x2 cache and now have blank screen .

I can hear pen go in out and getting messages etc.

Tried flashing stock used home csc

Still blank

Any ideas

Thanks R04
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
No screen in twrp/Download mode too?

Operator and csc related. Try flashing stock home_csc file
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Tops1:
No twrp no download

Oden successfully past and still nothing
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
Then likely screen (hardware).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Tops1:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Tops1:
You want try twrp backup

then clear x2 caches

Then reboot lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
Oh ok, i misunderstood. still confused. If you don't have download mode then how come you flashed stock?

Also not home_CSC, one should use CSC* in such cases which wipes data .
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Tops1:
I guess the download sequence and oden passed

Yeah I should of did full a full reset.

Anyway I took it to a shop.

And he said no problems he can fix and he knows it not the screen

I'll let you know the outcome on Monday 🙄

I'm using my note9 with your rom

Still working perfect on Q11

Good afternoon all, Could someone kindly tell me what "Dual SIM + SD card pre patched" means? Is it the sim glued to sd card trick? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] TheSGMan:
Absolutely love Tweaks Pro! and the messages Re on updates available :) (recommend to other users)

1 question, though. Is there a guide on just updating and keeping all my data etc? I'm worried about doing this and starting from the beggining again :D.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] awareunlikeu:
Hey guys I sent a pm to Dr K to ask this just now, but figured someone smarter than me here could answer. Will Dr K's Pro APK work on SM-N986U? Was reading the updated description and from what read I'll see about 75 to 80% functionality on my Note 20 Ultra Snapdragon? Just wanted to verify before making the 10 dollar donation. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] tiho5:
A bad and a good news. Well, looks like there is not going to be a Note21:

They will however continue the Note series. But the next note will be Note22.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
It seems S21 sell not going well.

N20 have no price drop (unofficially or officially) while on S21 already I got extra 150$ discount (additional from 150$ exchange offer)

Now if I sell watch active 2, actual cost will be nearly 1K USD

Apart from this, I have s21 ultra too but I reserved just for development test purpose, still N20 ultra is my primary device and probably remain same till next note. I didn't like s21 ultra much.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] kingwicked:
Hi. i had exact same issue few weeks back. My Note 20 Ultra N986B Was on charge and ibwas using a 45w Electjet charger . I came after 20 mins to check phone and i had a blackscreen everything was working the touch phone but black display.

Black display even in twrp and download mode as well. i blindly by just judgment booted in download and installed Android 11 but still not resolved.

I connected it via hdmi dex screen mirror mode and the phones everything worked ok except screen.

i tried opening closing few apps by pressing on phone approx where the icon was seen on tv. and suddenly the phone came back alive when opening closing stock camera app

it took 27 hours of me trying slapping massaging tapping the phone and above. check youtube many ppl have same issue.

My phone has then on worked perfectly as a precaution im now changing only with OEM supplied charger the 25w one.

Please do share with us when you come to know what was your issue and best of luck..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Jhfreeze:
Same, I've been a Note user since N3 and have had every other generation of Note since then so I wouldn't have updated anyway till N22. Glad your here developing for us dev its appreciated.

@dr.ketan Sir,

I am on R04 and I am thinking seriously downgrading to Q06.

(really piss me off not having a kernel with boefflas).

Would it be that easy as downloading Q06 and install it 'as is' ?

Many thanks in advance

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Brava27:
Go to magisk, downloads then search for "Bluetooth Library Patcher" Try this out.

Oh ok, I was unaware of this. Thanks!

It can be tried. If it doesn't work, just reflash stock firmware.

Just follow directions and instructions. Root, twrp, Odin ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] tomer82:
Thanks, i know but i'm just trying to figure it out before i'm actually buying the device :D

i'd look into getting N986B if its not working but at the moment in my country i cannot get this model.

I appreciate if any other members with N985F can confirm if they successfully installed the rom.

Good Day Dr. Installed your rom and all is working after a long long time back to flashing roms ?. A few questions

1- any chance to test roms I saw message I saw message in telegram tweak pro but can't send any request

2- I always get service provider update after every reboot but when I click it out doesn't update and gives error service provider not updated
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
1.No test version available as of now

2.Rom tool - mod & fix - freeze CID manager
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Brava27:
Sorry, a bit confused. We cannot write on the system because this rom was flashed on ODIN and not TWRP? Is this correct?

I am trying to replace some font files like I do with other roms but it's not allowing me on ROM Q01. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
It has nothing to do with method of installing ROM, it is restriection on newer os by google & samsung. You need to make changes with recovery script.

test Q02 was already TWRP flashable.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Brava27:
Thanks, I was unaware. So the changes in the recovery script are dependent of geiti94?

i think you should still be able to go back to Android 10 since looking at all Note 20 fimrwares i see the bootloader revision is still U1. The time when it crosses U2 boot loader revision you will not be able to downgrade.

You have to flash back complete stock rom via odin to downgrade to Android 10. Since you also need same bootloader

Samfw is an amazing website with resumable downloads of all samsung stock fimrwares. try searching this fimrware N986BXXU1ATJ1

i have read its the roll back firmware and then install Q06 by Dr Ketan

For Ref

WTH samsung pushing minor fix in pieces.

Now within a wk new firmware released with S21 camera mods added to N20 but security patch still March21, so may be next week or two again there will be a new firmware with aptil atch.

What do you think? should update or wait for april patch?

Wait for April patch.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] djmisi99:
Any of you have Bootloop after flashing R04 BL+AP+CP? (Boatloader and Modem)?

In on R01 still, because anything after CTL5 Boatloader just bootloops my N986.

I have to flag CTL5 BL+AP+CP, and than my phone boots.

Also, even though I flash the CTL5 CP, it still shows up as ATH3.

Following the steps described by DrKetan instructions, but that's what is happening, and ideas anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] techbrutha:
Dr. Ketan,

Will it be possible to port your ROM to a rooted, unlocked U.S. Note 20 Ultra 5G? I mentioned in previous posts that I was getting an Exynos Note 20 Ultra but found out that International Note 20 Ultras does not get the U.S. 5G signal (I guess it's missing a certain band). I decided to buy an unlocked U.S. Note 20 Ultra and will use the service to unlock the bootloader. Your ROM is the best I've used on rooted Samsung devices and I would be happy if your ROM could be ported.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] kingwicked:
Waiting for April patch would be good.

I am restoring apps with Swift Backhup which is excellent but time consuming since I restore around 500 apps and I prefer clean install. Doing updares every week is tiresome. Rest if you feel to update rom no issues. I can go through that
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] kingwicked:
Try going complete stock,then open bootloader again and install recovery and flash latest R04. I had similar kind of issue but not anymore on N986B Note 20 Ultra 5G
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] maxDL:
We'll wait until April. And so everything works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dingolino:

How do I get it back again

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Darth-Shined:
Hi @dr.ketan could you please take a look og my issue? I think it is a possible bug with the Windows Companion APP.

Thank you so much.

1.ROM build number: N986BXXS1DUC1_Dr.Ketan_R04_Pro

2.Dirty/Clean Install: Clean.

3.Bug/Issue appears right after installing or later?: Both.

4.How to reproduce error: Clean Install the Rom, apply essential fix and open Windows Companion.

When trying to enter, the APP will ask you to update and a server error will appear.

If you try to update it from the Play Store or Galaxy Apps, an error will appear when installing the APK. In Google Play Store I have tried clearing data and cache and the error persists.

5.Is there any same reports there on thread on your searching? No, I have also googled and tried various solutions with no success.

6.Is there any mention about same bug on OP or changeLog post? No

7.Logs - Attach logs here/Upload to other places where it can be downloaded without registration and doesn't have ad (we recommend dropbox/Gdrive) and post link. How do I get those logs?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
I never used Your Phone before but now what I did is (I am on R04 of course)

clicked link to window QS Panel Toggle and it asked me to type something on my PC web browser - then point to QR code appeared and that's it. I can easily see my apps/msg on my PC without installing anything on my PC/Android

PS : Thank you for making me test, it is so easy which I never thought to try.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Darth-Shined:
But can you use the app?

It is a really useful app

I can't go on from this point (see atached)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
As I said I never used before, how to use it other than said? I am able to see messages, I can use Android app on PC. What else to use?

PS : I haven't updated app, check this is cause in case for you
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Darth-Shined:
You must update it on PC and mobile to be able to use all the functions.

Before it was possible to use it without updating the app to the latest version on the phone, but now it asks you to have both parts updated to be able to start it.

There is some way to know which are the app files inside the root directory in data. I was going to try to delete them and download it again, but I can't find them and I don't want to delete something that isn't.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
If app is broken with updating then I don't think it is related to rom. You may post your review on play store. Or wait if someone using this app and have better idea.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
OK I have updated app from play store and still working fine. So no idea what's wrong on your side
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Darth-Shined:
The app worked for me with the phone in Stock.

Is it possible that one of the Deblooat had something to do with it?

There is some way to know what the files of that app are. Maybe I can try to delete them with the Root File Explorer and re-download the app, but I don't know where they are located
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Darth-Shined:
Hi again @dr.ketan I have a new problem this time when starting the phone.

Boot loop (see video).

IMG_0614.MOV

drive.google.com

Thank you so much.

1.ROM build number: N986BXXS1DUC1_Dr.Ketan_R04_Pro

2.Dirty/Clean Install: Clean.

3.Bug/Issue appears right after installing or later?: Later.

4.How to reproduce error: INot really sure. I juast have entered the recovery menu with the menu button, I have rebooted to system and the video loop appears. (I have been in the loop for 45 min). How curious my background image does not appear on the home screen

5.Is there any same reports there on thread on your searching? No. It also happened to me once with R03 but I somehow managed to enter recovery and do a wipe to install R04 even though now I'm not getting into recovery again.

6.Is there any mention about same bug on OP or changeLog post? No

7.Logs - Attach logs here/Upload to other places where it can be downloaded without registration and doesn't have ad (we recommend dropbox/Gdrive) and post link. Video?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] dr.ketan:
needs to connect to PC along with combo keys to reboot to recovery. Clean install again if you have bootlooped device.

Edit : I have checked video, it's lockscreen bootloop.

Commonest causes are -

1.Enable Dual messanger

2.Rollback protection.

Remedy : Clean install ROM + Bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra ROMs, Kernels, Recove] Darth-Shined:
Hey Man.

i have finally maged to make it work.

I have managed to fix bootloop by putting it in download and then in the recovery mode. For some strange reason, if I didn't download mode it before, it wouldn't let me open the recovery. I hope that helps people with the same issue.

Then I have done a clean installation of the ROM and the Windows Link app was working correctly.

I kept installing apps and got to the TweaksPro N20 part. When doing a debloatware the windows app started to fail again. (same issue) I restore the apps from the debloat and the application worked. It seems I have to be a bit more conservative with the Debloat. If I find exactly what app it was, I'll write it here

Thank you so much for your help @dr.ketan your ROM is killing it (y)
