I’m looking into this.. I can’t seem to figure what I need to achieve root.. I don’t care about TWRP as much as I do having root. It seems if this person from the mentioned post is making TWRP they must’ve surely achieved root. Is it the same as usual? Enable OEM unlock, unlock bootloader, and flash modified boot.img with Magisk?

you need to run the python script in the guide to get to fastboot for bl unlocking

[General Questions and Answers] 971shep:
The answers to the last 2 posts are in this thread. These TLC models do not have fastboot,; at least that anyone has accessed and posted. Everything is enabled by mtkclient. mtkclient can unlock the bootloader, erases partitions and over-write the verified boot elements., @malfunction did almost all the work and if you pick his posts in page 3 of this thread, you will get your questions answered.

[General Questions and Answers] luridphantom:
if your bl is already unlocked i don't see why you can't attempt a downgrade through fastboot, just make sure to back everything up just in case

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pixie_laluna:
I've been running LineageOS 18.1 for my S8 (SM-950FD) and it's been working fabulously ! However its stock camera is just not the best. I have tried other camera apps as well, like GCamera and Open Camera, but nothing is as close as Samsung stock camera. I chose not to go back to Samsung stock ROM because I love the experience of Android 11, while the original rom only supports till Android 9.

Is there any other Custom ROM than LineageOS that comes with a great camera app ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Adanor123:
There is Project Sakura (https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-11-project-sakura-5-1-official-monthly-updates-vanilla.4261403/). It is based on LineageOS 18.1 and has an integrated camera app called Footej Camera. Not the best name, but it feels a lot like the Stock Camera. I believe you can also download Footej from PlayStore but it probably costs a few pennies.

Good Luck on your Search!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pixie_laluna:
Hi, thanks !

I have read the whole thread from Project Sakura that you provided, apparently there are issues with hotspot (not working) and camera itself (few people mentioned the camera just stucks after a while). But this ROM looks interesting, I'm gonna keep my eye on it and see its updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Adanor123:
Well, the further custom roms move away from the stock rom, the more bugs appear. I'm surprised you have a working LOS 18.1, which one is that if I may ask?

You could check out ProCam X, it's in the Playstore. Great app with lots of features. Some people complain that the image quality is worse, but that's probably because they accidentally set the post-processing to low quality (NR).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pixie_laluna:
I'm using LOS 18.1 from Stricted, check the first comment here. Yes, it's working surprisingly well, battery drains a little bit faster than using original stock ROM though, but everything works fine. I'm aware some people mention wifi / hotspot are problematic on their LOS 18.1, but I can use wifi & hotspot sharing just fine on my phone with this custom ROM from Stricted. They have September update for their ROM which I haven't tried because mine is already working well and I figured the camera quality would be the same anyway.

At this point, I'm focusing on looking for an alternative camera app, or waiting if someone would generously come with LOS 19 (Android 12) for S8, haha. In the meantime, I'll try your camera app recommendation, thanks !!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Adanor123:
Thank you! I will check that out. One last thing comes to my mind. You probably know it already, but maybe you don't or anyone else is searching for a solution, so:

It is very important for high quality photos to activate the Camera2 API. It can simply be flashed and offers an interface for more complex camera controls. If the API is activated can be checked with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.airbeat.device.inspector&hl=gsw&gl=US

If it misses, here is the zip file: https://www.cyanogenmods.org/downloads/camera2-api-enabler-zip-file-download/

Good luck and happy photographing!

Actually I wasn't aware of this API, I'm gonna try to use it. Thank you !

[Networking] deityuk:
Hello! I am using a Kaiser running official O2 WM6.1, but I think this is a general WM6.1 question and I hope this is the right section to post this!

How can I force a particular application to always use a specific internet connection even when multiple internet connections are available?

I have a feeling that when both GPRS/3G and WiFi are enabled, WiFi is always preferred - i.e. all applications internet activities would be transmitted over the wifi. Is there any documentation to verify this?

However, in my situation, I have to use the iskoot client to connect to 3 UK network's iskoot server. I think that server only accept communication when it is from its own network. My 3G connection is therefore always on. However, that means when I connect my phone to PC (active sync enabled) or switch on wifi, my iskoot client cannot communicate with the 3 (UK) iskoot server and hence I cannot make skype call or use skype chat, etc.

My general question is are there any setting/tweak/hack that I can use to enforce a program or change their order of preference for which internet connection to use?

In my specific case, I want almost all other programs to use wifi and active sync when available, but only iskoot to always use 3G connection.

Is it possible?

Thanks!

Comment: How does a device running 201Mhz but it run Manilla smooth than Polaris or Diamond?

Its suck that MSM's cpu all haven't any video support causing this problem.

So should the Polaris 2D driver could "fix" this problem?
[Touch Cruise General] sonus:
In the brief period that I ran Manilla 2D, it was just as smooth on my Polaris. Otherwise, I'm sure that any issues you may have with Manilla 2D are due to the fact that the ports of the software aren't optimized for our devices and may be missing files resulting in their being buggy.

[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] zerodarkthirty:
I have Lineage version 18.1-20211030-NIGHTLY-cheryl installed on my Razer Phone.

I'm unable to send any text messages to single contacts, but I can send text messages to multiple contacts without any problems. I can also use data and make calls normally. The texting problem is not due to reception; I've tried many locations miles apart and couldn't send texts from any of them. Calling, however worked well at all of the locations.

A different Razer Phone running on stock rom is able to send text messages using my SIM card, but my phone is not able to send texts with the same SIM card. However, because my SIM card is able to send text messages when placed inside the stock Razer, neither my SIM card nor the phone company's network is likely to be the problem.

I've ruled out Wi-Fi calling as the problem. On stock Razer, Wi-Fi calling has, in the past, interfered with my text messages. However, I have Wi-Fi calling disabled on my Lineage Razer and I still can't send any texts.

Has anyone had problems with texting on their Lineage Razer Phone? I've already spent days researching this problem and failed to find anything that works. As much as I love having an updated phone, not being able to text is a serious problem. Does anyone have any ideas that could spare me from having to return to stock?
