Android 8.0 Oreo for TWRP
Stock rooted 8.0 Oreo for TWRP. Everything is working, and there's really nothing more to say. For both 5121 and 5122.
Installation:
Flash through the TWRP, don't forget to wipe partitions (system, data and caches) before flashing.
After that flash a rooted kernel, SuperSU and DRM-fix from @YasuHamed's thread.
Then everything will work ;^)
Builds here. A for 5121, B for 5122.
I WILL NOT ANSWER AT NEWBIES QUESTION, INSTALLATION IS EASY.
Okay, here's the FAQ for my differently abled persons:
Q: - Where I can download root files?
A: - Thread says that YasuHamed have everything related to root in his thread. HIS THREAD IS LOCATED HERE.
Q: - Can you remove SuperSU.
A: - No because of a tool. Stop asking me that, remove it by yourself.
Q: - Can you add anything in there?
A: - I can, but I'll never do it.
Q: - It doesn't work!
A: - It is, at least all 5121 builds, because they are tested by me.
Q: - Please make the same for M/N.
A: - No.

Hi there,
I've installed the ROM as per the instructions provided; all steps were carried out in the correct order and such.
However, now I can't make or receive phone calls. :/ The call will connect but there is no audio being provided by either the earpiece or the loudspeaker - and the Microphone isn't picking up anything on the recipient's end either from me.
I don't believe I've missed anything, but can you offer any possible suggestions? Aside from that, the ROM seems to be flawless.

I don't think it's somehow connected with my ROM, because I haven't changed anything related to sound and calls in it. Try to reinstall it, maybe it could help.
Also, have you tried to press Vol+ when you're calling?...
Can't find any kernels by that user labelled for 8.0, is there a specific one to use? They're all different builds and for Android 7.1 and lower apparently ?

Hi,
I had the same problem with OmniRom.
I just needed to flash the whole ROM (the same ROM you're trying to install with TWRP - 34.4.A.2.19 ) with Flashtool one more time.
I hope it will help.
Btw. My TWRP can't install SuperSU package after installing the system.
(Sorry for my bad english)
HI, i flashed the rom but, when i reboot the smartphone it stay in sony logo. I need help please

Model (5121/5122)
What have you flashed and in what order
Additional mods, packs, optimizers, root things, etc
Logcat
Dmesg
And at last try to clean caches in TWRP. Hope it'll help.
I have 5121, first I wipe System,data and caches, secondly i flash 34.4.A.2.19. Can I flash the Kernel from TWRP? What Karnel I've to Flash? Can you do a small tutorial? please!!!

May I know the exact steps you took to flash a ROM, Recovery you are using and the ROM you are about to flash?
Please provide complete information so as to facilitate others to solve your problem

You can can't flash any new Rom using the old Bootloader, go update it then update your TWRP (if needed) to be able to flash the Roms
Have a new Rom in your storage since this problem also works backwards, old Roms won't boot on the new bootloader
Hey XDA-Community
I sent my phone to oneplus for repairing it. They wrote that as solution for my problem (speakers didn't work) they just replaced the mainboard. But now I'm unable to install TWRP persistently. After every reboot I get the stock recovery. Furthermore if I'm in TWRP wich I just booted from fastboot I can't install anything. If I want to flash SuperSu it says errors like: "Unable to find partition size for '/boot'" (also other partitions like '/recovery', '/misc'...) then in the console the folowing error gets displayed: "Unable to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)" this continues with all the other partitions, and then (obviously) SuperSU doesn't get installed. I have attached a screentshot about my phone info. Do you have any idea how I can fix this? Do you need any further information? Feel free to ask.

I did that, and tried it for a few days. But unfortunately most of my Apps crash all the time, or after a few minutes. Sometimes I cant, lock or unlock my screen and root with SUperSU just disapperes sometimes Sadly this custom rom is very unstable. Is there maybe ANY way I cold just flash the Android 6 stock ROM on it and root it with anything? I really don't care what I have to do for rooting it, but this ROM is just too buggy... but it looks nice, and having Android 7 is also ver cool:fingers-crossed::good:

I have the same build number as OP (E1003_15_161107). Phone is untouched and on stock ROM. Read things about our devices being different than others and hence little to no ROM support. So I am a bit lost. I reckon recovery provided by you works well on our device. What about the ROMs ? Can I flash any of my choice ? And Kernels ? Can I opt for kernels other than Arsenic ? (Big fan of Franco. Using his kernel on my OPO)

Yes you can flash any rom of your choice, just make sure you flash Arsenic R46 along with the rom zip as kernel is what makes your device boot. I'm not sure about franco's kernel so better ask in his respective thread?
No Luck for me.

Hi, Guys.
I just installed new OREO Firmware CRB7 [PDA G950FXXU1CRB7-CSC G950FOXM1CRAP-BL G950FXXU1CRB7 (DBT) - Changelist 12993656] and I did exactly the same steps as in the previous CRAP Firmware – HERE ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/development/oreoodin-official-firmware-galaxy-s8-t3748669 ).
This time I’ve used a new ODIN, v3.12.10.1, and I didn’t absolutely NOTHING different from what I had already done in the previous flash, so there is nothing more to add to what was said earlier, just follow what it has been said, as simple as that.
I'm so sorry no longer available to answer user questions, but understand that I'm just reporting something I just did, without any kind of problems.
Other questions that could be put beyond all that has been said, I could only answer with certainty if I had experienced this same doubt, that is, I would have to reproduce the problem to give the answer, understand?
Has anyone asked if through an update via update.zip could install Recovery TWRP or Root ... I would say yes, but I can not be sure of this because I never did ... it's a matter of trying!
So I leave here the LINK of new firmware, to be installed via ODIN, just like any other firmware to be installed this way ... there are no secrets.
I also leave LINK for Magisk v16.0 (1600), Magisk Manager v5.6.1, Magisk Uninstaller 2018-02-22 and TWRP 3.2.1-0 dreamlte, for anyone who needs this software.
Good Luck to All

Hi. I have not yet installed any custom ROM, just installed TWRP and Magisk. Later I'm going to test some ROMs, but so far everything is perfect, no problem.
I already had a custom ROM before flashing the new firmware, so maybe I had no problems installing the TWRP or Root
Does this work on 950FD?
I'm on 'CRAP' right now.
Thanks

Hi.
File to download is not ROM but the Official Stock Firmware for the S8 G950F.
Now, new ODIN with has .lz4 file support, so you can download Official Stock Firmware directly from SamMobile and flash this on your S8 G950F (or other) with the new ODIN.
I leave here LINKs for SamMobile G950F Firmware and ODIN with support for .lz4 files

Yes, same problem.
if I have this message in download mode --- 'Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed' after having installed official CRB7 --- can I flash official AQL5 ROM to go back to version 7 and thus be able to install TWRP ??
Please advise before doing so, as I understand in the state that is today, I must wait a week to install something in download mode ... is it correct?
If I make a mistake without asking, I could be without a phone for a week and I would have to commit suicide ... hahaha
Thank you.

Hello, I have one big problem with my mate 10 lite
The problem is, when i flash twrp everything is okay, but when i try to flash any custom rom - I always have bootloop, on every custom :/
I tried to use eRecovery to install stock but it ends in the same way - bootloop
What can I do?
I really wanted to switch for custom...
Try using 338 stock rom and then install custom rom.

You can install other custom ROMs even if you are already on a custom ROM. The thing is all steps indicated
in custom ROM threads, ask you to wipe, and format so already they are cleaning necessary things, before actual
installation (flashing) step starts. But the cleaning is not like a proper clean i.e. done by stock recovery, so if you want
to install a new custom ROM, its better to first install Stock recovery, then wipe/format, then install TWRP, and proceed
with new Custom ROM installation.
If any thing does not work for you, then install ur stock ROM, and then install the new custom ROM ur interested in.

I reckon you must have missed some step, as I did tried most of the ROMs shared in this mate 10 lite
section of XDA forums. Specially the part after installation which says to flash Stock recovery n give it a wipe/format that makes the ROM installation proper, later you can install custom recovery.
For stock ROM, HuruUpdater works with TWRP, try one version of HuruUpdater, if it does not work change your
custom recovery to some other custom recovery (other TWRP, you will find many in this forum), and eventually
one of them will work for u. Still, it doesnt work, change the HuruUpdater version to an earlier version, and repeat
the process.

There is no best recovery that will work in every possible situation (e.g. Stock ROM flashing, Custom ROM flashing, backup/restore etc.). So for each custom ROM u better use the recovery that is indicated in that custom ROM thread.
Hello! I've been trying to install a custom ROM on my SM-J400M for a while now and none worked, recently i tried installing Magisk on it and now it is in a bootloop . Is there any custom ROM compatible with my device? Or it is impossible to install a custom ROM on it? At the moment it seems like it is not even rootable...
Also the version of TWRP that i installed on my device says that it is an SM-J400F instead of a SM-J400M which is the actuall name of the model. Is that a problem? If so please tell me how to unistall it, i wasnt able to find any way to uninstal TWRP on a soft-bricked phone.

Although, this is not specific Custom ROM for this device. This ROM is GSI (Generic System Image), and J4 is greatly support it! (Because it has Android Oreo out-of-box)
How to install it?
Easy, install TWRP from TwrpBuilder's Github, flash GSI Image as usual, flash magisk (if bootloop, flash this might help), and done!
Please note that this is GSI, bugs are widely open. But, as far as I use J4, the only bug I feel are Camera and MTP (fixed by using custom kernel)
Edit: For your TWRP, which version you install?

Thanks for the reply!
I recently discovered that my Samsung J4 is carrier locked so i don't think it is possible to flash a custom ROM in it...
I really tried many things since this post but in the end it would always get stuck in a boot loop and i would have to flash the official firmware in it to restore it.
What TWRP version did i use?
I honestly don't remember but it probably was a unofficial TWRP 3.2.3 or something similar, not sure if it was unofficial or not but it seemed to work...
Also, how would i go around getting a custom kernel to use on the device that would fix those problems?
Again, thanks for replying!

I use TWRP 3.2, and flashed MY builded custom kernel (Only for GSI!) https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j/development/kernel-redline-kernel-samsung-galaxy-j4-t4188199/
You need to update to Android 10 Stock then flash the A64 A/B GSI. And remember to flash dm verity disabler then flash Magisk. Magisk is important too.
