I replaced Lineage OS recovery by TWRP (tried 3.5 and 3.4) but it ask me for a password to decrypt the device.

My pin don't seems to works.

Any idea on what I shall do ?

Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] pumori:
Yep :) Install Magisk, than the "MagiskHide Props Config" Module.

You'll find detailed HowTo's on XDA
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] jomann:
You maybe right, but not so fast! I didn't follow the correct procedure (I'm still not sure what that is) either, but my phone switched to RM status checking after a couple hours.

I'd recommend that you revert to the phone to the stock ROM, verify it has WIFI access, and leave for a few hours. I would guess the RM status will only update with a stock ROM. It should go to RM status checking and then you're good.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] jomann:
I had the same experience with TWRP. I think you either have to leave the default "boot" password (i.e. do not accept the option to use a boot password during setup), wait for TWRP support for Android 10 (the latest is Android 9), or use the LOS recovery.

I'm using the LOS recovery and I wish it had a few more options like direct flashing from a zip, but had sideload and factory reset option is finer grained than it sounds.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] savelbys:
ok lol, i activated WLAN and then OEM Unlock was displayed and i could flash TWRP, thanks a lot

But now i have the same problem as before, mobile data is not working/SIM Card is not recognized.

Still showing "only emergency calls" no phone number, no IMEI, Sim Status not available, but I have to enter the SIM PIN at restart.

I flashed the newest TWRP through Odin v3 14.4 and i did format data + advanced wipe and did a complete reset and deleted all (system, data, cache, dalvik, internal and sd card - only efs and vendor not) rebooted, flashed rom here, than white wolf kernel, and then magisk. With the stock ROM it was working, i saw the beams too.

What is the issue here?

Something's really wrong with echo/noise cancelling on my device. When using earphones in a noisy environment the caller's (!) volume stutters. But the caller hears me perfectly. It looks like the echo cancellation "mutes" the wrong channel.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] gfavre:
Oh, I don't remember setting a password during setup, I am back to LOS recovery which is fine. Thank for the reply !

As I have it installed and as in Magisk the SafetyNet failed I thought the documentation I found was outdated. I have to look further then, thanks !

And now I am under 18.1 and passing also SafetyNet !

Seems great sofar, thank you very much !

(And I can confirm ANT+ isn't working in LOS 17.1 and 18.1)
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] jomann:
That sounds like the device is SIM locked to a specific carrier. Is it asking you for a code to unlock the carrier or is there a password/code on the SIM?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] smallz2k:
Is this for the Exynos variant please?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] savelbys:
What can i do now?

When i put in the sim card, i have to enter a pin (like everyone)

What you mean with unlock the carrier?

I flashed the following stock Rom G965FXXSEFUA1_G965FOXMEFUA1_DBT

i was before at vodafone, and now at telefonica/o2.

mobile data is not working/SIM Card is not recognized.

Still showing "only emergency calls" no phone number, no IMEI, Sim Status not available, but I have to enter the SIM PIN at restart.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] jomann:
I've never been required to enter a code for a SIM. If you purchased the device through vodafone they probably did lock the device (aka SIM Carrier lock) to them to make sure you completed the purchase contract. You should be able to contact them (vodafone) to get the unlock code and that may be what the device is asking for when you put in the new SIM. Regardless, they should be able to confirm is the device is carrier locked and any steps necessary to unlock.

A SIM lock is a separate code that the user enables and decides as an additional security step. This would presumably also be required when you insert a new SIM (and probably at device boot), but only if you locked the SIM with a code of your choosing. This is not something I've used, but it could be a useful security measure.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] savelbys:
I did not buy the phone through Vodafone, back then at congstar (Telekom-D1) without mobile data/sim card.

I used Vodafone/D2. But now i changed to Telefonica/O2. The problem here by me is that my IMEI is not showing (00000000000000) whether my SIM card is inside or not. Only the serial number.

I have tried the SIM card on another phone and there it works fine, on the other phones you also have to enter a PIN from the SIM card when you restart the phone, or remove the SIM card slot and reinsert (like you said SIM lock ) this is quite normal here in Germany. When i enter the PIN, i have access to the mobile phone, otherwise you can't enter. I only have to enter that PIN, nothing else.

[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] jomann:
I didn't see the "No IMEI" before. Do you go off the rails at some point wiping partitions with TWRP, or even Odin or Heimdall? The IMEI is obviously unique to each device and I believe it is stored in the EFS partition. If it got wiped or corrupted I don't know if there's a non-OEM method to fix it.

Do you have backups of the original partitions? The EFS partition isn't updated by normal flashing of a stock or custom ROM. If the EFS is corrupted, and no one else has ideas, I think your only option is to take it in. Unfortunately, I wouldn't expect much from local service centers especially if the device isn't local to your region.
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Koffietijd:
I thought everything was working properly, but today I found out that it is not.

The dialer is not responding to buttons.

- If someone call me, dialer does not popup and I do not know how to anser then.

- When I make a phone call, I can dial a number, but the dial button stays green. I can not hangup.

When making a phone call, I can not push some buttons 1-0, or #*. They do not respons. So I can not use manu's, like voicemail.

Does anyone know how to solve this? I've not read this before.

I installed TWRP and LOS 18.1 on my S9 and now the device is in a weird error-loop:

While booting it says:

When I press "Erase all data", it does a "Factory data reset" for quite a while. After rebooting it goes quickly into TWRP and says something like "mounting partiton failed" and the tries to boot LOS again, bringing the the message "Encryption unsuccessfull" again.

It's a weird loop the device can't get out.

What can I do about that?
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] jomann:
Try a factory reset (or format DATA) from TWRP. It will be unable to mount DATA because the encryption failed, but you should be able to bypass that.

What is the recommended way to change /vendor/lib/libexynoscamera3.so for gcam (in order to use front camera) ?

I had installed the zip with sideload but it wasn't enough...

EDIT : TWRP wasn't working with my 17.1 installation but since I installed 18.1, TWRP works and there is a nice terminal in it !

RESULT : the libexynoscamera3.so I found on gcam's telegram don't even allow the camera to start so I put back the original one (so no front camera in gcam).

LOS18.1 is working fine on my samsung starlte. Last stock rom was: PHN version: G960FOXM9DTD7_CL18339707_QB30629950. 2020-05.

But I have replaced camera lib with an older version.

I just saw that there are newer stock roms (all android 10). Last one is from 2021-01. Would it be a good idea to install this stock rom, and after that LOS18.1 again? Or just vendor, and/or system? Or does that not help me to get something better :D like camera?

Hello, after uploading linegous 18.1 in s9 + the system fell into a batlop and I cannot enter recorwery mode
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] Tom1369:
After having explored many software dead ends, I recommend not to rule out a defective hardware.

E.g. I just found out that the intermittent NFC malfunction that I have observed on my S9 is most likely caused by a hardware defect rather than an unsuccessful flashing attempt or a premature custom ROM. I have flashed 3 different firmware revisions, 3 custom ROMs (including the unofficial LOS 18.1), 3 different TWRP revisions and explored 2 different Magisk installation procedures. Not to mention all the trial and error attempts playing with the settings of the different ROMs. At the end I found out, that NFC is only working while my S9 is being charged, whereas it always fails when being operated on battery.

Can you tell me every step how I can do this? Thanks for answer!
[Samsung Galaxy S9 & S9+ Cross Device Development] gfavre:
I don't think there is a unique answer to your request.

What I did was boot into lineageos recovery, from there format all and sideloaded the zip of 18.1 to the phone with adb sideload /path/to/zip (like in Update LineageOS on star2lte ).

TWRP wasn't able to read my device (for an unkown (to me) reason) so I had to put back lineageos recovery, but since I installed 18.1 I reinstalled TWRP and it can read my device just fine now.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Freak07:
Hey everybody,

I guess I was not the only one being a bit disappointed that google didn´t make adaptive audio available for the Pixel 4 devices as well.

To be honest I personally think it´s a bit of a gimmicky feature that´s not very critical, but making it exclusive to Pixel 5 left a bitter after taste.

Here´s how to enable the feature persistent across reboots on a rooted device:

1. Download the pixel 5 device personalization app from apkmirror and install the app:

https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/device-personalization-services/device-personalization-services-r-11-playstore-pixel5-353007393-release/device-personalization-services-r-11-playstore-pixel5-353007393-android-apk-download/

2. Flash the attached magisk module Adaptive_Audio_Settings_Enabler.zip via magisk manager app and do a reboot.

Wait a few minutes after the phone booted successfully and the entry in settings will appear.

Manual command method, doesn´t survive reboots but works on unrooted devices as well:

1. Download the pixel 5 device personalization app from apkmirror and install the app:

Device Personalization Services R.12.playstore.pixel5.357001175 APK Download by Google LLC - APKMirror

www.apkmirror.com

2. Make sure to have USB Debugging enabled via developer options and have a working adb environment. Then connect your phone to pc.

3. Type the following:

adb shell

4. then type (this step is not needed)

su

grant superuser permission in the window that opens on your phone.

5. Now paste the following commands:

device_config put device_personalization_services AdaptiveAudio__enable_adaptive_audio true

device_config put device_personalization_services AdaptiveAudio__show_promo_notification true

You can enable it now in settings and try the feature for yourself.

A few notes here:

I´m unsure how much profit this feature really gives, even on the Pixel 5. When enabling it on my 4XL the sound gets a bit more bassy.

Judging from the logs it should be working as it is with the steps described above. It might be that it´s tuned towards the Pixel 5, but well... Having options is always nice :)

The guide with the manual commands works without root, for those that don´t like to run rooted. I was able to disable and enable the feature back again without the need for root. Maybe some apps can execute scripts without root on the phone so it will stay across reboots. Somebody else has to figure this out though. :)

Have fun with it :)

[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zilla0617:
Thank you for the tip, but whenever I reboot the phone it will not stick, I'm currently rooted.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Freak07:
You´re correct. I didn´t notice it, because it takes a short while for the setting to disappear after rebooting.

I made a magisk module, that passes the command every boot after a timeout. Magisk required obviously ;)
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zilla0617:
After installing the module, I added the commands using adb shell but adaptive sound still does not persist after a reboot.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Freak07:
Flash the module in magisk manager, reboot, wait a few minutes and the entry should pop up. It needs a few minutes. There’s no need for any manual commands with the module.

If you're on Windows, Linux or macOS, you can follow these step by step instructions to install ADB on your desktop or laptop PC.

If you are rooted with magisk and unfamiliar with command line, there's also the magisk module.

Open it in play store and hit uninstall. Then update again and it will install the latest one for pixel 4.

I am sorry telling you that my friend but I am rooted and did yesterday the process and everything was ok, after some seconds as you said the adaptive sound wan in my menu.

Today as I went to check if it was still there, kaboom, disappeared so I uninstalled everything and did it from the beginning, so it can be installed again.

Have an idea why?

[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] zetsumeikuro:
Can confirm that it still does work. But after rebooting even with the root method and the module still showing up in magisk adaptive sound vanished in settings. Reinstalling the module makes it appear again and function.

Edit: The feature just vanished without a reboot. Guess Le Googs doesn't wan tus usingit RIP.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tifone:
The comment above and I are experiencing the same symptoms. When a module is installed, it is initially visible in the configuration, but sometimes it is not present after a period of time. If you reboot each time, it will come back.

However, I wish it could be maintained without rebooting.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] zetsumeikuro:
How long does it persist for you after you reboot?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tifone:
That can't be verified. However, sometimes when time passes, it may not be in the setting.

I don't think there's a solution, but thanks for letting me use a service that doesn't support it.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] tifone:
I think I figured out why it sometimes disappears when I check it after some time.

I'm using the dolby digital plus module, but after deleting this module once, I tested to see if it disappears after a while, and the adaptive sound was maintained.

I'm not sure if it's causing a conflict between modules. I also noticed that the two modules run together at first.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] zetsumeikuro:
Hmm, I don't use that module and adaptive audio vanishes for me quite quickly. Not sure what else it could be at this point honestly. Since your post, has the feature maintained?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] zetsumeikuro:
Thanks for the update! So it's pretty much hit or miss still. Hopefully, in the future, it'll get better.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Freak07:
It usually sticks for me at least a few days. But I also had one instance where it got disabled after 12hours or so.

I did some more digging and it seems it´s actually overwritten by google play services.

My module basically issues a command, that activates adaptive audio, which is part of the device personalization apk from pixel 5.

On the Pixel 5, this command originates from play services. The device gets identified as a Pixel 5, play services tells the device personalization apk to enable it and it appears.

Unfortunately switching the prop that identifies the Pixel 4 XL to a Pixel 5 causes a bunch of issues. So that´s out of the question for now.

What happens when the setting vanishes is that Google PlayServices simply runs the command to enable or disable adaptive audio again. I don´t know what triggers this behaviour, but I guess just some background stuff from play services. Since the Pixel 4 XL is not eligible for the feature it will overwrite whatever I set to the device config after boot.

That´s also the reason why you have to wait 2 minutes for the setting to appear after a reboot. reboot, play services run and disable adaptive audio, my module issues the command and it´s enabled again.

Simple workaround:

Create a simple script that issues the commands from the OP to enable adaptive audio. Run the script when you notice the setting is gone. That doesn´t need a reboot.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Freak07:
There’s a new update to device personalization services. If you have automatic background updates in playstore enabled you might end up with the R11 pixel 4 version.

Here is a link to the latest pixel 5 apk again:
