Good news everyone!
A really awesome Developer @SaschaNes who has a lot of knowledge with making AOSP device trees etc, wants to help us with getting Official/Our own builds of Lineage and RR and other awesome AOSP roms. The only problem is that he doesn't have Note8 yet so he can't try/debug his builds. Currently I can help him, but if he had his own device, everything would happen A LOT faster. So if You could donate some money to him, it would help a lot. If he gets the device, by Christmas we might have a daily driver of Lineage 15 and other AOSP roms.
What AOSP roms could give us? Freedom! We could get new Android versions faster, and obviously pure AOSP roms that don't have Samsung Experience theming for those who don't like it. Pure Android also allows us to get more stuff to work on Note8 like Xposed or Substratum.

It's been a while since I was messing around with this stuff but as I recall, didn't ASOP Roms kill a lot of S-Pen functions? Or other stuff that TW-Based Roms can only do?

They do. But some people like AOSP. And having more roms is awesome. This way You can switch between different UIs every week or two. Plus You get Substratum themes and all Xposed modules. Aaand faster Android updates. Some people would like to have a Note8 and Pixel 2XL. But they can't buy them both. So they buy Note8 and this way they can still enjoy AOSP .
The only Samsung appstore I really use are the camera and translate with the s-pen. Other than that I use google and blackberry's android apps. Would all spend functions be lost? Like pressure sensitivity and the little circle that appears when I press the button to start using translate or quickly open apps?
I literally have ever other Samsung service disabled with bkdisabler. Stock android with the latest security patches and updates would be great.
How would updates work anyways. Would we ge then straight from google or do we have to flash a new room or every update?

If the rom would be stable enough we would get OTA's from Lineage. Or RR.

The only real downside to flashing AOSP roms is that you lose ALL Samsung Functionality. I am pretty sure the SPEN loses all the cool functionality - Live Write among others, and you lose the Samsung CAMERA for sure. there are other camera apks you can run of course, but not the SAMSUNG camera - which is one of the major things I like most about the NOTE - that and the SPEN of course.
Don't get me wrong - running AOSP roms have it's advantages but there is definately a trade off.

Some people think the Pixel camera port is better than stock anyway. That would run fine on an ASOP ROM, right?

Hi.
Is there any update on the ROM for the Note 8.
We are talking about the N950-F?
I need the ROM to be able to run Native SBS...
Isn't working on my Note with stock ROM, TWRP and su installed. It requires a CM12 or ASOP ROM.

I switched my wife over to nexus 5p, I can't decide on a phone so rocking the S4 longer. Stang's ROM has helped to this. lol Though he has me waiting for extended desktop feature...
What more can be done to this phone? Feels it's all dependent on latest Google, TouchWiz, and CyanogenMod firmwares. The processor is still running today's tasks fine still.

I'm running Stang's v2 rom on OF1. I thought this will be the closest I will ever get my S4 to running a streamlined ROM and I have to say, it's NEVER run better. Handles everything very nicely. I still find TWZ rather annoying though...so many baked-in 'features' that I've never used and don't care about.

just trying to spark some life back into it.
seems there are a good few newcomers and plenty of users that dont plan on going anywhere
@stang5litre has done an excellent job on that as well.
I'm too poor to go anywhere... also because the one phone I want is like 100 bucks... plus taxes and crap, which we sure as heck don't have the money for because yay water damage!
we did hijack mohammed's thread...haven't tried the new Safestrap yet. Does it work good?
So is there anything to this mention of a unlocked bootloader for the s4?
Yes, for MDK bootloader.

I wonder if its possible to re-map memory to flash
really there isn't much public info on the state of kexec and what has/has not been tried or done
last I heard got the kernel to initialize but it was hanging at boot ... after that everybody sorta dropped
if you could map some of the memory to a flash partition you could walk it as it boots and get a better idea on whats going on
I'm still on this phone because it has the features I want with an unlocked BL. If the Nexus 6 had a removable SD card, battery, IR, and some of the Samsung features like side sync and multiwindow, I'd use it instead.
Also if the S5, or Note 3 BL proof of concept unlock ever gets released, I'd get either one.
One thing I'm currently looking at is removing all the google bits that are not part of the AOSP, and basically making the Phoenix ROM like a S4 would be if it only had Samsung's software on it.
I like the direction stang, and klabit are going to add as many features as possible from the newer Samsung phones to the S4.
UPSM is a boon to the day to day use of this phone, as is fast charge and the new kernel.
The only thing I could really wish for is that all the new features could be optional and selectable at install like some of them are in the Phoenix port.
I believe that the Chinese variants are this way because of the ban on google services in China.
I don't want to remove the google services for the reason China does. Just for battery life reasons, and the constant addition of features I don't want, or need.
I am slowing transitioning over to using mostly apps from the f-droid repository and side loading the few app only on the play store, backed up from another phone.
As far as telegram is concerned, it's not 100% secure in it's default configuration, if that is your main use of it.
I use another software that is currently still in beta called ring. It is cross platform as well as open source.
I'm also working on designing a 3d printed case for using an extended battery, Qi charging that is rugged and has a removable front S-view cover option.
When I get more 3d modeling of it done I'll put a link in my sig.
Edit: Wrong area, my bad.
Ok, my question is neither a disrespect to any dev working on the device nor i decline all their hard work which they put in bringing us cm and twrp etc... This is simply a question...
After cm, will devs work on other roms, to port them to our phone e.g aokp or pacman....
Sorry if i hurt anyones feelings.. I know u guys are working hard....

I hope some custom roms some through fast, the stock really sucks a** and it's just not Android from UX or it's functions! Such crap OS, hell, can't even use basic root apps effectively (like TB) or install straight forward mods (v4A for ex)....all things either screw up the system or just don't work! The CM build by crpalmer seems to be working for most, but it lack fingerprint support something of a factor that made me buy this phone in the first place

Yea, thanks for the hint though i love all the tinkering I do, I missed the alternative launcher option! I installed Nova and it's much better than the stock Huawei home launcher.
Also, on the V4A, somehow it refuses to work at times and having an "abnormal" status for the driver. Uninstalled it completely now and flashed the Dolby Atmos, seems like my phone has suddenly come alive when it comes to speaker quality and music on headphones.......way better than what I was getting with V4A.

But Yes, it should work on Stock. BUT YOu need to add Init.d Support if YOu want to use the given Scripts like Battery Calibration and Play Services battery drain Fix.
Another thing are the GApps. The LIGHT PATCH comes with Optimized GApps for 7.1. If You are on 7.1 YOu're good to go. If not, You should pre download a GApp Pack for Your Android Version to install it after the Patch. That should be all. And like always, do clean flashs! lol

I'm still playing around with some things. Ended up doing a complete clean flash of RR, Magisk 13, and this again this morning, so I haven't had too much time to just dive into everything just yet. Just tested sound over speakers though, and it sounds great. Still gotta see how battery fares.
If you opt to let the patch install Gapps, they're very minimal, and you'll end up installing most of them from the Play Store, but that gives you the option to keep whichever ones you want. There are also a ton of lib files, and some add-ons from Sony and HTC that are worth checking out. Will give a more detailed post after I've had more time to mess around.
I'm interested too.
A list with some information of the benefits would still be good.

Glad to hear it runs! Well, there are hundreds of Features and goodies in this Baby. I'm working on Android since almost 7 Years and the Patch is the Product of enhancing custom ROMs to something more than that. Calling it a Mod is like calling a Operation on a Brain slaughtering lol
I will try to explain it a bit.
The Light Patch is the 3rd Version of My Patch System. The Multi Device Support is caused by excluding the Device specific Firmware from the customization which i usually would do with a ROM. The advantages of that are independent OS updates, Multi Device Support, Features which You can't get with AOSP, and it is better to develop than usual Mods or ROMs.
We have planned to create a own AOSP OS and some Apps in the Future which will include the advanced research behind the Patch and everything what i do. It is really hard for Me to describe all that. But i'm going to enhance My Project together with a new Partner and the Light Patch is the first Step on that Way. There will come for sure more Infos, Videos and all possible Things over the Time. And don't run away cause of my English! My Partner speaks a lot better English than Me, so the overall Quality will come over the Time. I'll let him do all the Social stuff here so i can focus on the development (finally). The Main Team is growing and our Maintainers will also get a place in our Org. We will soon have a own Domain with G Suite Service and everything looks bright for our Project.
I hope that wasn't to much bad English for One Post :laugh: Just take a look on My very long Changelog and try the Patch. You will not regret it, it is 100% stable if You follow the given Instructions

I decided to try it out of curiosity, pretty much because I flash a lot, and try to stay open to new things. I'm a tinkerer, and I guess that's just part of my fidgety nature. Lol. But, as there's no official maintainer or posts in the development section for our device yet, and English isn't the developers first language, it seems that either flashing or waiting for response from people that have are the best way to get information for now. But if you download the zip and browse through it, there are a lot of things there that should theoretically add to the user experience.
From your testing and experience which V30 AOSP Pie Rom is the best at the moment.
We all have our own opinions, what is yours?

Interesting. Since when? afaik all of Markus's roms work fine with dac. including all his pie roms
Poll has evened up with Pixel Experience and Havoc OS getting 3 votes each as well as Lineage just behind with 2 votes.
Anyone have any likes/dislikes they want to share about the rom they are using?
Also really interested in ROMs on this phone. Just ordered a V30+ so haven't tried any yet, or even the stock experience. Haven't used any Android version past 7.1.2 yet. I really want a ROM that allows me to modify the power button functions to show a "reboot" and "reboot to recovery" along with "power off", removing all other options from the boot menu accessed via power button. Also saw the Google Now bar which was, for a while, known as a pain to remove on the Nexus 5 (or was that Android in general?). Hoping it's possible to remove that bar entirely.

havoc v 08/12 and this kernel "boot_H930_pie_I_7_WIP3_mk7_2_play_los16.0_20181118" is the best .
Did someone build DU themselves? I don't see DU 9.0 anywhere on these forums. Marcus was told not to release unofficial builds.

Open source is open source. No one -- even ROM group -- has any control over "unofficial" builds somebody wants to make. They're unofficial.
Unofficial is actually better in many instances, because the device maintainer can make whatever changes they wish, and are not restricted by ROM group rules.
@SGCMarkus? I thought you locked the DU thread only until the group released PIE?

The DU guys dont want any releases on XDA, at all. There has been some dramain the past... lets say it that way.
And yes, they have a say in unofficial builds too. But im gonna respect their wishes anyway. The builds are in the V30 Telegram group, or in the V30 Discord server (the later is still WIP).
Unfortunately, the T-Mobile V30 is always the odd one out with these ROMs. So the only one I have been able to use is Lineage 16. But other than the dim Always On Display, I haven't had any issues with it and it works great. I don't feel the need to go back to Oreo now.

Hey, six of one half a dozen of the other. Weird though, since I thought XDA was pretty much the biggest forum for Android development.
Stock apps?
I'm very aware of the fact that AOSP loses features from stock. But audio recording thought the headphone jack sucks now! The default recorder was amazing, and every app I try blows out the mic... I've tried all of them even Field Recorder.
I'm aware my use case is very specific. I use a lavalier mic to record interviews and conversations for videos. Honestly every other app, other than the stock LG one has no dynamic range and turning down gain in settings does nothing.
I'm open to suggestions, it's just a huge bummer that my last 5 projects all suffer from a blown out mic.

Stuff like this is why I'm still on ROOTED stock firmware. I can flash/install mods to give me custom features.
The only thing that really bugs me right now I've not been able to change easily is the status bar icons --- and maybe I just haven't looked hard enough.
If the polling weren't already completed, I would have voted for a third option. It would be either stock or none. I have flirted with all of the pie roms, and they each suffer from similar and fatal flaws like the one you give. Others to add are a functional camera app, propper playback volume, need for se enforcing, and correct set up for mms on Verizon to name a few. I hope this isn't interpreted that the efforts of the devs are not valued. The dev's have made amazing progress in six months or so since wtf was announced. I patiently look forward to the day the scale tips in favor of an aosp rom like what happend with RR om the quark.

Right. The devs are amazing.
@SGCMarkus singlehandedly brought the V30 a half dozen AOSP/Lineage custom ROMs.
It's just for me personally, I've made the decision to stay on stock rooted firmware for now.
As you know, on the Moto Quark I was a BIG proponent of first CM (which is now Lineage) and RR ROMs.
How about Potato Open Source Project? Anyone have test the rom yet?

Personally I have not being one of the newer contenders I believe it may need some time, but that is just my opinion as I like to allow roms time to bake

I know this is random considering but Matt have you tried theming status bar icons with substratum? Seems to work on stock for myself.
MOD EDIT: Prepayment type fundraisers are not allowed on this site
Just donated, would love to see this rom!
Funding update, Since a lot of people in group have shown interest in paypal info instead of going thru funding site Ill provide info and ammount collected in this post
as of right now we are sitting at 500/550 euros
(Actually even closer as ill add my money and try to find cheapest available device (Going for s10 as it has all of the features that might show up to be messier to implement than on s10e))
Paypal you can use to donate is <Mod Removed>
If you donated and want a refund feel free to conact me in PM, This post will be updated few times per day to reflect new ammount collected
As a little background i worked on exynos devices since 2014 starting with note 2, As of right now I'm maintaining s7 and s8 series of devices, I am also a member of LineageOS so once everything works as expected it shouldnt take too long for device to recieve official builds.
if you have any questions feel free to ask me either here in telegram or via PM
Once moeny is collected donation links will be removed
Why? FYI the s10 can run lineage already. simply install the Univeral system image build
The S10 is fully compatible with treble 2, literally just install any GSI Rom, including Google's official Android Q Beta for GSI
Be aware the camera is total crap though, its like taking pictures from messenger / whatsapp.
This is a thing since the S9.

The phone is treble ready.
Unless you are starting from scratch I don't see this require.

Even though it is Treble ready, I doubt it will be daily driver ready, some form of development is required.

What magical GSI are you talking about? Have you even tried GSIs on S10? It doesn't work any good. Lots of major bugs. That won't magically fix itself. If Ivan can help if people donate device, and people want to donate, let this be.

The current state of gsis is not daily driver ready
Bugs: MTP, Proximity sensor, Signal bars, Bluetooth, NFC, HWC, deep sleep, Fingerprint, brightness range, auto brightness
Having a device specific rom is always better
Still no luck in booting Q gsi - any advices?
you can get some s10 on swappa for cheap unless you really want new

Swappa doesnt even work in EEA and those are used prices in most of eu, actually cheapest we've found

Those bugs were probably due to the specific rom you were using, as HWC in aosp gsi is literally mandatory for google to certify the device. Its on the list of treble requirements even

Dont get me wrong, i still appreciate decice specific roms(mostly for kernel), just wanted to make people aware really
Good luck

Can you show us that it actually works on our devices? I have heard the same as others and am curious.

it doesn't work, it didn't work properly since pie on s9 either sure it will show up as working in logs (dumpsys SurfaceFlinger) but anyone who tried using it will notice graphical glitches in transition animations, due to samsungs messed up implementation of dealing with fences in hwc2 (they treat it same way as hwc1 fences) but i guess some people would rather be stubborn than do some research, furthermore he should know big oems get exempt from some tests sometimes, take for example a fact previously samsung had completely different fingerprint enrolling percentage calculation so fingerprint couldn't be enrolled by default you either had to use custom hal (like we did at lineage) or hack up system like phh did

I've tried 3 gsis till now and i can confirm its not a rom specific bug.
And Samsung doesn't fully follow the rules set by google
I would really suggest you to try a gsi yourself if you're thinking it's something usable in its current state.

Yeah s8 has stable lineage right now, Well next update will bring even more things to it, Previous maintainer didnt do much, Also i personaly dont have plans of working on qcom variants as stated previously as i enjoy working on exynos more and have a lot of experience with it so i would leave qcom to someone else as it should also be way easier

How could you be bored of oneui and the themeing and all the other things you have on stock... i think your just curious to have linage os running on your phone you mean because all youll find is poor battery and performance and a poor camera and over heating issues then youll be back to stock in no time....then ull get curious again when something else comes up and youll do it all over again then keep repeating lol...past experience for me haha thats y i dont even root now days...was talking about myself in that rant btw.
