Hello Dr Ketan, Unfortunately, after more than 3 hours my playstore is still not certified, even after resetting the play store to its factory version, deleting all data from the play store and google play services, restarting the phone several times nothing happened, yet on the U02 version no problem, my playstore was certified before the U03 flash, if anyone has an idea I'm interested.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Might be something else. I have same setup including play integrity and play store is certified
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ubimo:
@Mic-4

Which other magisk modules do have installed?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] juanwini:
Is there anyway to hide hotspot activity?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello Dr Ketan, it's strange, I don't understand what happened, in U02 the playstore was still certified and it was only after the flash of the U03 that it no longer had it, I'm going try to reflash the rom to see if that solves the problem because it is still not certified for the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello Ubimo,

Only the mofules installed by rom tool or tweak pro, the 3 on my screenshoot, so zygisk ls posed, shamiko and play integrity fix.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] nelson04:
Did you install U03 in a dirty way?......
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] nelson04:
View attachment 6044027You have to do it under this concept or else there is a possibility that the U03 will not work well for you fully.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Gytole:
Updated to U3 just fine! But! I have to tell you all something! I got this new USB 4 type C cable from Amazon, andddd...it usually takes like 3-4 minutes to flash my phone....It flashed in 1 minute and 7 seconds. IT BLEW MY MIND

It transferred the 7GB update to my computer in 20 seconds too. Time is worth the $14 people lmao

BUY ONE. YOU'RE WELCOME!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello Nelson04, Thank you very much for your message, yes I had already done it before the flash, I started again, reflashed the rom and erased the data from the play store and the Google Play service, still the same, too bad it will stay like that , everything else works perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] 52yt:
I am just on your A13 rom though
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jhr5474:
Testing the latest and as almost always everything is stable and works correctly. Have you ever considered doing any type of rom control where we could apply some teeming, like colored notifications in the notification bar, or nav buttons that are customizable, or flip in animations. Just a thought.

Thank you for your work
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
No and will be never.

I almost worked only on note device a business class phone and 90% of my users don't prefer coloring stuff or animating things. Also after Samsung introduce theme store, I don't see any need.

Navbar goodlock is enough and cool for NB customization. So, no. ROM will never have those stuff and mainly remain focus on functional part rather than UI
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jhr5474:
Well, I am thankful for the stability and in my opinion it is worth the cost. You keep stuff very stable and stuff just works.

Being able to customize your theme and make the rom yours rather than just a stock is half the point of being on Android. see where it all goes.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jhr5474:
For some reason mine tells me I am not able to change those permissions. I am using root explorer classic in rom toolbox lite. I have a lot of boot animation files.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MistahBungle:
Dunno.

I'm using standalone Root Explorer, but don't see how that would make any difference. What version of this ROM are you running ?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello Dr Ketan, I don't know if this is related but following the update of the Magisk play integrity fix module to version 14.4, my play store went back to certified. Everything is now 100% perfect for me, congratulations again for the magnificent work.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jhr5474:
I was finally able to change the 3 files but for some reason it just makes it to where when I boot there is no bootanimation.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MistahBungle:
Wouldn't know. Haven't messed with boot animations since the S2 days. Don't spend a huge amount of time looking at my phone while it's booting, tbh ;-) Probably not the thread you're going to get a lot of answers in given this is a general Android/Samsung thing Vs anything specific to this ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
U03 is Online now.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello everyone, something weird is happening to me that has never happened before, the playstore offers me updates on applications not installed by the playstore, before it only offered me official applications installed from the playstore only. Is there a Magisk module or another way to no longer see them appear in the list of applications to update? Thanks in advance if anyone has any tips.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
What is issue of play store shows update? Simply update it. If you don't want update leave it as it is.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] lambik333:
Many thanks Dr.Ketan for your wonderful rom!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] JohnTheFarm3r:
That's old news. And it will work only assuming that your PC DOES support USB 3.x, otherwise you're limited by the USB port of your PC.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] zapahacks:
Updated yesterday from your first beta. Everything working fine. I have to test wallet yet and report. With v 14.4 was working fine. In case v 14.3 doesn't work, can I simply update to 14.4?

I have a question, goggle play system update is dated from July 1, 2023. Is this something intentional so other functions of your rom work? Or is there any way to update it to December as well?

Just a feedback, I dirty flashed, I use island, and I had to reinstall its apps after flashing to make it work again, in case anyone has similar situation.

Secure folder works OK after dirty flashing.

I have another question, is there a way to install/enable Magisk/root/lsposed on secure folder space/apps?

Thanks @dr.ketan for your great rom!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] lambik333:
the google play system update is a samsung thing, i believe they working on it so be patient....i cant update also... ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
- Google frequently blocking fingerprint. Almost every couple of days needs to update play integrity module. Keep watching play integrity module thread

- Play system update is known issue.

- To install magisk in secure folder, open magisk/alpha manager from out side secure folder - settings - MultiUser mode - select "device owner managed" and then install manager (magisk/alpha) to secure folder. You will have working magisk but again apps in secure folder will start detecting root
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
Yes, this is happening for all. It shows apps not installed from playstore
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
I have a question, goggle play system update is dated from July 1, 2023. Is this something intentional so other functions of your rom work? Or is there any way to update it to December as well?

Download and install from here:

Download Main components APKs for Android - APKMirror

Download Main components APKs for Android - APKMirror Free and safe Android APK downloads

www.apkmirror.com
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
It is known bug for decrypted ROM, No such issue on encrypted ROM.

Installing apk (Main Components) just change the date of play system update, in real it doesn't update, so it is useless.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] zapahacks:
Thanks for the clarification. I don't mind a lot about that.

On regards to your other answers:

- I flashed v 14.5 integrity fix and it works.

- I was able to root/lsposed secure folder so I can run modules on apps (using your instructions from previous post). I use these specifically for WhatsApp modules on a second WhatsApp account that I use for work. In case anyone wonders, there is a WhatsApp mod called WA Tweaker that perfectly works with your rom.

- I use my bank app (or any other app that can't easily bypass root) on Island environment. On Island I don't use root, so everything works fine with Google/apps security checks.

So basically I use normal mode and secure folder with root, and Island clean. All that possible 51% because of you, so thanks again 🙃
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] juanwini:
Hey Dr.Ketan, thank you for your great work!.

Im having an issue with my LTE signal... Mobile Data seems to be unresponsive every now and then... Phone stays with full signal bar and LTE arrows seem to only go out but not in... The way in fixing this is by turning airplane mode on and off... Could it be baseband or something related? Maybe my provider is is blocking me as if i was a hotspot?

Thank you in advance

Hi Dr. Ketan,

Currently, I'm on T08 - OneUI 5.1 with KernelSU.

I would like to Dirty Flash to U03 - OneUI 6.0 with KernelSU without losing any data, apps etc.

Can you kindly assist on how to Dirty Flash using ODIN or TWRP so that I don't lose any data whatsoever.

Thanks for all your great work!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
No. You have to do yourself by reading Installation guide
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
⚠️ Important :

Some users in my private TG channel as well myself experienced bootloop after updating to Magisk Alpha 26403. I needed to restore boot file and trying again update worked.

So,

Before updating to 26403, Kindly make backup of init_boot partition

and restore it if bootloop after updatng magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ubimo:
I updated to 26403 some days ago, no bootloops or problems here.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Yes, It doesn't happen to everyone/everytime. Yet to know trigger factor.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ubimo:
How can I check, if Hiya service is installed?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Service is installed by default in ROM but it get activated with CSC features. Option shows in Phone app settings if it is activated.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] paknam92:
hi dr ketan. but a rom control for s23? even for a fee. I love your rom control
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ubimo:
Solved: Caller ID and spam protection missing option in phone app

Just for info, if someone ever has the same problem. I took me several days to figure this one out.

I tried a dozen different CSC codes with SamFW tool, no success. I do not want to factory reset my phone or lose data due to a re-flash of firmware.

Long story short, I accidentally disabled SmartCall (com.samsung.android.smartcallprovider) which is the responsible service, that Caller ID and spam protection option is showing up in phone app. I'm using the windows programm "ADB App Control" to delete/disable/enable system and user apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Handymann007:
Hey. For everyone who has updated to 14.8 and the Palay Store is no longer verified. I turned off the MagiskHide module (since the phone would otherwise always restart or no longer work properly) and then put 14.6 back on. in the pif.json the pure.... "PRODUCT": "c01_ww",

Hi there ! I am on the latest S911B-U3, but I am not able to find the ROM-Tools App. All I have is the App "DrKetan RoM" which does not offer me any options. I really need to make the "essential fix" I´ve successfully installed TweaksPro.

View attachment 6047715
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Install magisk module ROM from TweaksPro main page. For any further queries regarding TweaksPro kindly reply to email you received
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Djesys:
Hello ! Thanks for the prompt answer. Not sure what you mean. TweaksPro installed "DrKetan_ROM_S23" Module in Magisk automatically. But there is no ROM-Tools App anywhere to be found.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ffp.:
Hi, @dr.ketan , is the E-SIM working? When I try to add one, it says the esim is already in use (it isn't, i just got it). I'm using the correct CSC, bu the way. Any way to solve this?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ubimo:
@ffp.

I'm using one esim no physical simcard, it's working on my side.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Skenderbeggar:
Dr. Ketan, Play Protect deleted Tweaks Pro. How do I reinstall it please?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
I didn't get what you mean by deleted play protect
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Skenderbeggar:
Saw a message from Play Protect saying it removed Tweaks Pro because it found it malicious or something. First time that ever happened. Haven't upgraded yet and still on T10, decrypted. Have no idea how to reinstall. Proud to be a premium member and thank you for all that you do, seriously made this phone much better for it. Send you an email earlier today through the request code apk.

Thank you for any help.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
While install apk it will ask you to give option to continue installing or stop installing. Choose to continue. For any further queries related to TweaksPro, kindly email us.

Here are my modules in case it helps :

CallRecorder by Skvalex

Shamiko 0.7.5

PlayIntegrityFix 15.1

Zygisk - LSposed 1.9.2
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Some time ago (post #2254) I have wrote what to do before updating magisk but seems most of have ignored.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] enebro77:
Indeed ....
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] lahceneamine:
I have successfully updated to the latest magisk alpha by disabling all my modules, updating magisk, then enabled my modules again (updated shamiko on the go too)

If you could share the list of modules you have, maybe we will find the reason why some of us have this problem.

In my small guess, I think it's Shamiko's version 0.7.5 which is not compatible with the latest magisk.

Hello guys,

I just received my new phone, i was a little bit excited at first, but then i saw it was a hong-kong model and i live in europe... i'm currently looking to send it back but it's going to be a hassle as far as i can see (hong-kong reseller).

That being said, i was wondering if your rom could be flash on model S9110 by any chance ?

I have no much hope as the title clearly says S911B base but i thought i should ask non the less.

Wish you the best for 2024 !

Hello!

I'm a happy user of this ROM, and I'm about to update to the last version, I'm at this moment on Android 13. As advised, I'm planning to do a clean installation.

Can I please ask for some advice regarding backup and restoring of the apps?

I've seen the suggestion of swift backup. When using this app, do you first let Play Store or Samsung reinstall the apps and then use Swift, or do you begin by using Swift directly?

Hope my question is clear..

Thank you, and congratulations for the fantastic work!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Gibbon_999:
Use swift directly - it will reinstall the apps along with their data.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Elopat:
Thank you very much!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello Dr Ketan, Even having deactivated all the modules in Magisk, the phone crashes in bootloop at startup, reinstallation via the recovery of the boot ini backup but still the request to update in Magisk, therefore impossible to update and d 'have the phone working, no problem I'll wait for the next Magisk update.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Mic-4:
Hello Dr Ketan and everyone, In the end I found the solution, rename magisk.apk to magisk.zip and flash using twrp, no modules disabled, everything is functional modules and magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] beetle01:

Hi Drketan, if I root my device on android 14 with Magisk, can I separately just install your Tweaks Pro Premium w/o problems? ... and do I have to use Magisk version Alpha for rooting or just the normal one?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Some mods won't work on stock ROM. Though there is magisk module available for these missing mods but may not fully replace with custom rom. You can use any version of magisk
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] beetle01:
Thanks. If I try Tweaks Pro Premium first with Stock version .....and later decide to install your ROM, do I have to buy another Tweaks licence....or can still use the same?

BR,
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
No you don't need to buy again based on rom. Check inbox for more details.

I have tried. It doesn't work even with magisk hide, not even in island.

You can install magisk delta which has the option to disable magisk, then it will work.

When you need root just reboot your phone.

Hi Dr. Ketan, may you help me. I installed your ROM meanwhile two times on my s911b, the ROM works fine. Thx for the work.

The only thing is, I cannot backup/restore the data or any other partition in TWRP after flashing Magisk.

When I format data after installing the ROM, TWRP works fine, but as soon as I flash Magisk, the data partition shows 0MB space. I tried this twice withe the same result.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] AsusZenFone3Deluxe:
Can you try edgar is twrp and he has telegram group , Sharing new twrp and kernels
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Because ROM is encrypted

Try other twrp available on xda by

and remove lockscreen pin/password and try making backup
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] skysurfer1111:
Sorry, it doesn't work. Edgars TWRP is for S23 ultra. My screen stays black, no chance to enter TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] skysurfer1111:
I'm on BeyondRom now and TWRP backup/restore works like a charme. Maybe because the Rom is decrypted.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MevishL:
hello, which rom is better? and what about battery life
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MistahBungle:
Battery life shouldn't be a problem on this device regardless of what ROM you're running, unless you're running badly coded non-ROM stuff (I.E 'apps')/stuff that likes to do things in the background it shouldn't be doing.

It ain't the S2 days anymore, cuz ;-)
