Introducing the first Oreo ROM for the S8 and S8+, its basic don't complain.
First of all, before you go any lower read this:
THIS IS NOT ROOT! This is a custom system image that I modded and allows me to add or remove files and still have it boot and keep Knox intact along with Saftey Net. Unless you mess with the build.prop device stuff, Samsung Pay, Secure Folder, and Google Pay should all work.
Second, If you break your phone or mess up and it boot loops, just flash a stock image and start over. Don't come here crying over it not working because these do work and I have had testers use them and run this.
Third, this is pixelish because all I did was add the pixel launcher and a couple pixel files along with S9+ messenger. This is more of an open project.
Forth, If you are a dev interesting and making your own custom system image, message me and I will tell you the ways of this magic.
NOW FOR THE GOOD PART!
This ROM currently contains the stock Pixel launcher, a couple new /etc/sysconfig pixel files, and the S9 messenger. Knox still works and so does Saftey Net. This has yet to be debloated.
To install it:
1. Go to download mode and flash the file install BL.tar with Modded Odin, all files will be linked in like post 2 or 3, I don't know.
2. Reboot back into download and flash the system.tar (names may vary) in the AP slot with the options reparation and NAND erase all selected, you will also need to use the pit file there. This step will say fail in Odin but that's good.
3. Reboot BACK to download mode and flash the CRB9 AP, BL, and CP. In between the system flashing and this step, hit reset at the bottom of Odin to reset the options.
4. Let the phone reboot. It will boot loop, that's good. Now go to recovery and let this boot loop. It will say something about a cache error, that's perfect.
5. From recovery go to download mode, it might be difficult and you may get to upload mode, just keep holding the keys until you get there. Now flash the CSC file.
6. After flashing CSC you should be in recovery, now clear data and cache. Hit reboot the system or whatever and you should be good!
7. Enjoy whatever is in the ROM because I assume some people are going to link back here at some point.
THANKS to @me2151 for finding this and telling me how to do it and such

How to mod it yourself!
This is a little thing on how to mod it yourself.
You need to download the system for the device, just use the one I have above. Then you need to mount it in Linux using the command sudo mount -o loop system.img.ext4 folder name. This should mount as an r/w. I did it in Kali Linux and didn't have issues while Ubuntu did some funky stuff. Then you mod the systems normally like making a ROM. Whenever you mod something you need to set the proper permissions with chmod and context with sudo setfattr -n security.selinux -v ubject_r:system_file:s0 filename. You might need to install attr to get it. Then once you're done, unmount with sudo umount folder name and then add it to a .tar file without any compression and flash it in Odin like the instructions. Just use your system instead of mine. If you make it and post it, just credit me2151 and me (mweinbach).

This has such great potential. Thank you guys for bringing hope back to Snapdragon models!
Thanks so much.

Thanks a lot! Can you post how to create a custom rom on here for us devs?
I know this rom is for Snapdragon but is there any chance that your methods would apply to exynos firmware too? A custom non-knox tripping rom would be great
Nice work anyway!

What's the main difference between this and the Stock Samsung ROM? Does it have bloatwares if I install on my AT&T variant? I'm sorry, I'm asking since it's not listed on the first post exactly aside from a couple of things you mentioned.

This has bloat. It also has S9 messenger and pixel launcher. Also some pixel stuff. It's more what others can add.

I can set perms, I am going to leave that to a better ROM dev who understands it more. I would probably kill it.
Hey @mweinbach, thanks for taking the time to make this rom! I have a quick question. I have an S8 and am currently running PartCyborgRom (build AQI6). Can I just flash the firmware and system files without doing anything else beforehand? If not, what steps should I take before installing this?

This is a custom Rom I made for the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0 LTE (SM-T285), which suits my tastes.
If you have suggestions, send me a PM.
UPDATE 09/07/2016
================
A newer version that runs "root" (sepolicy constrained) scripts can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-samsung-galaxy-tab-7-0-lte-2016-sm-t3455788
Use the above version instead if you want to experiment with features like apps 2 sdcard.
Modifications:
* Based on LMY47V.T285XXU0APCN
* Stock Boot and Recovery (Not much choice since the bootloader is locked)
* Removed Touchwiz launcher and redundant samsung apps (Hancom office, Kidzone), replaced with Trebuchet
* Enabled r/w to the external SD Card
Installation Instructions:
Odin or Heimdall Required.
--FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK--
1. Make sure to backup of your data and have a copy of your stock Rom in case something goes wrong.
2. Make sure your device is OEM unlocked. (Enable Developer settings and Enable the OEM unlock settings)
3. Extract ZIP file below and flash the tar.md5 file using ODIN, for details on this kindly look for instructions in the xda site.
4. For Heimdall you can use 7zip to extract the system.img from the tar.md5 and just flash the system.img itself.

You have to go to download mode and then use Odin to flash. Unfortunately this does not root the T285.

Yeah the newest version checks for xposed and a bunch of other things. Actually a lot of people were pissed that they did this. You'd probably need to revert back to stock if you want to play. Only systemless root and xposed with magisk works for Pokemon go now.

Hello and thank you for your work with this device. Currently I am looking for a bypass for the factory reset protection on my sm t280. I have flashed the stock md5 file 3+ times attempting to do a complete data wipe and reset, and this doesnt remove the lock. Any ideas?

To FRP unlock you have to go to developer settings and switch oem unlock to false. The stock rom should have it unless you are using a carrier locked version that I a! not aware of.

FRP is specifically designed to prevent flashing if you can't login to the device. You won't be able to flash unless the person has turned off oem unlock beforehand. I am not aware of any method to bypass this on this device.
Also the T280 and T285 have slightly different hardware so using a different recovery image is not recommended. Also since both devices have a locked bootloader, I highly doubt you can even change the recoveries from stock as I would imagine samsung using different keys for both. At the worst case it still always possible to reflash them back to stock if you do want to try

And thank you so much for selling it. I don't speak enough Spanish to make the ordeal of getting one of the T285M's from so america worthwhile. I was planning on sticking with my T239M for awhile, then I saw your T285M on ebay.
I've dirty flashed jedld's T285 debloated rom, then dirty flashed his T285 tinker rom on top of that. Both onto my T285M. Working flawlessly. Wished he'd kept the mail app, but without touchwiz I guess that wasn't possible.
Something else they blocked in the kernel or with SElinux on the T285M is screen mirroring. Can only cast directly from apps.
Still I am happy overall. Now looking for a castrated version of daemonsu!

got another one - white color ...as a gift...God Bless - great device battery life is just incredible - nothing fancy but does its job...keeping this one (had it since early November) gave up on the 705m
Is this ROM compatible with Google Safetynet? I can't seem to log into Pokemon GO since I installed Tinker edition, so I'm thinking to switch to this one instead.
Haven't tried it but it should work.
Is the root part contained in boot.img or in system.img? In other words, when using Heimdall I should flash both system.img and boot.img, isn't it?
I'm getting bootloops with CM13, Omni and I don't know how I got Tinker working, I kind of remember flashing boot.img, then wiping, then flashing system.img, then wiping again.
EDIT: got this one working too by flashing boot.img (Heimdall complains it cannot receive confirmation msg) reboot into download again, then flashing system.img (this time heimdall does reboot the phone). however, pokemon go still wont connect due to google's safetynet compliance.
I'll try flashing recovery in case it is TWRP the one clashing with Safetynet.
PD: I didn't backup stock at the beggining of the process so I'm pretty much screwed with Pokemon until I can afford a new phone. But if someone has a stock ROM for T285MUBU0API2, please ping me.
EDIT2 Got pokemon working. I reinstalled TWRP (this ROM's recovery is the stock one, of course), then flashed unSU. It removed SuperSU binary and Google SafeNet got working again. I can't believe that, after so much hours I've put into finding the best custom ROM for this crappy phone, 95% of the time was spent in trying to get Pokemon GO running. I'm close to 40, FML.
**Sorry for the crude guide, If someone would like to rewrite it and make it more beginner friendly that would be great**
I will explain how i achieved root on my AT&T note 7 , This is based off of Super leaky brothers Sprint method found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-note-7/how-to/root-super-leaky-bros-sprint-galaxy-t3447202
files needed , Im assuming you already have samsung drivers and adb installed
1. Sprint engineering rom https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651430732236681
2. Modified Odin (this is version I used , im sure others work fine)http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/tools/ODIN/ODIN-modified.zip
3. ATT stock rom https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24686679545610574
4. Sun7 files https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651430732236679
process
1. Unlock developer mode , turn oem unlock and usb debugging on
2. Put Phone is download mode
3. Flash Sprint engineering rom
4. Once flash is complete and the phone reboots put it back in download mode before it boots (if not you will be waiting a while)
5. Flash all the files From the stock ATT rom except the sytem file , leave out the ap file
6. After second flash is complete wait for the phone to boot , it will take 20-30 minutes and may just sit at the samsung screen the entire time, .be patient
7. After boot is complete skip through all the setup process and enable developer mode and make sure usb debugging is on
Copied from freezas post
8: Open a command prompt where your ADB executable and sun7 folder are.
9: Verify standard root access by typing "adb shell" then "su" If successful, type "exit" twice to get back to the command prompt.
10: Push the sun7 folder to your phone by typing "adb push sun7 /data/local/tmp/su"
11: Change permissions of contents in su to 777 by typing "adb shell chmod 0777 /data/local/tmp/su/*"
12: Launch adb shell by typing "adb shell"
13: Change directory to su by typing "cd data" "cd local" "cd tmp" "cd su"
14: Gain standard root privileges by typing "su"
15: Execute the SU script by typing "./root.sh"
You should now be rooted , Everything I use appears to function as it should , I dont use samsung or android pay so i dont know about those
***none of this is my work , this was just me messing around with the work of others so if you use this then head over to there threads and give them a like or a donation and As always this is do at your own risk, Its your phone and not mine and im not responsible for it.
Im pretty sure this same method could be done with all u.s. models and there stock roms but I dont have those devices to test
Awesome, thanks for putting this together! So technically, this should work for all variants correct?
So does it haave aall Sprint bloatware since you left the sprint system file flashed?

I'm using this root on Sprint, and it is WAAAY better than the s7 root. No lag for me and from what I can tell, no battery or heat problems. After installing all my apps, I decided to do a quick Antutu test, and I got great results. YMMV...:silly:
Only thing I'd be concerned about is possibly losing VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling. Not sure, but it seems like you'd be lucky to get those going.

Maybe you should try flashing the CP, BL, and CSC from an official Sprint rom? That might restore Volte and wifi calling for you? Also, thanks for giving feedback on the root!

It is tough to say because the Sprint release firmware didn't even have Wi-Fi calling as an option (Sprint just flat out doesn't have VoLTE)...anyway, I won't clog up the att forum with a bunch of Sprint talk. Wish you all the best.
Stupid question guys, but:
1. Are we able to use Samsung Pay with this non-Knox tripping root method, while Rooted?
2. I assume we won't be able to keep root in the future, when Samsung releases new firmware and patches this exploit? Or does EngBoot mean we can always flash the latest system.img?
3. With this exploit in place, would you guys still consider buying the International models without warranty, but with better dev support? Thanks!

Download firmware to desktop (It's in .zip format and you can find it here). Extract .zip file to odin folder (again, or wherever). Extraction should yield G360PVPU2APJ2_G360PSPT2APJ2_G360PVPU2APJ2_HOME.tar
Right click Odin 3.10.6 and click on "run as administrator".
Click on AP and find the extracted ROM. Open it and it will take a minute to load in to Odin...Now make sure the 'Auto Reboot and F. reset time options are ticked and nothing else.
Make sure to be using a quality USB cord. Odin will recognize your phone being plugged in. It will say COM port number in the top left hand corner and added or removed will be in the log window. Once you are ready begin the flash press start.
Relax, It will take about 10 minutes to do it's thing. After the long agonizing initial boot process, you will be back to stock firmware PJ2 for SM-G360P
Hope it helps! So far there is no lollipop for our phone. Click here to check out all my uploads for this device. So far I have a TWRP port that actually works. (Must flash through Odin) an a Stock rooted deodexed busyboxed zipaligned rom of this firmware (Thanks to ASSAYYED Kitchen).
OLDER VERSIONS
OH1 Firmware
I flashed this back to my device in attempt to go stock but system status is still set to Custom just so everyone is aware. Not sure if it could be an error on my part.
just wanted to say thanks i have 2 of these phones 1 use for mp3 player/ play phone and the other my daughter has to use. ive tried a ton of twrps for this and everyone broke recovery. im dl ing the twrp and the rom you posted. ya there is no development on this phone at all. ive tried almost every rom i could to get it to lollipop with no luck. im going to try to get the theme store and the launcher swapped out with an updated version.. n5 s7 any is fine i just want to get it updated lol. ill play with it tonight and let you know how it goes. i appreciate the effort your putting in to this. i dont even have service to them i have a stubborn s7 that refuses to get rooted. i had no prob with the note7 but idk if i have some updated version of s7 but i cannot obtain full root. i need to have my audio mods at least. i have a good one with beats, dolby atomos and viper im going to try on the 360 as well. let me know if you would like the file. after i check if it works on this on that is.
Please stay tuned. Upgrading this thread to the most recent PJ2 firmware.
Thread updated to PJ2 firmware. I can confirm this will make your device status 'Official'.
Thank you!
I just wanted to say:
Thank you so much mate! An amazing job here, I had a broken rom on this device, and thanks to your PJ2 build; I now have a fully working device again!
Fixed the play store, play services, and all the ads and junk on this Textfree branded device (PE2 firmware confirmed). keep up the great work!
Thanks for posting this! I see your other files, would you mind going in more detail how to install the stock rooted deodexed version of this rom? How do you recommend unlocking the bootloader to install TWRP or can we just simply flash it with ODIN then install the stock rooted rom? Thanks!
EDIT: according to this forum looks like you just flash it. Do you recommend your 2.87 over the 3.02?

Awesome, thanks for keeping support alive for this phone!
I'd really like a custom rom for this phone i have to restart at least once a day or this ROM becomes unusably slow.. I mean atleast CM11
Hello. I'm Dave. I just got this phone (G360P Prevail LTE) and I'm pretty excited about it because it could sure use some stuff and I'm new to development and ROM porting. My goal is to bring great ROMs to the lower end phones that are sometimes forgotten in development. Right now I only have one good port under my belt, but it's a great one...PAC 5.1.1 for the ZTE Zmax Z970. Unfortunately, I used device and kernel trees that were already put together by another developer, so I'm not completely sure how to get started on putting trees together for this one. At least it's a Samsung, so mistakes will not be deadly, hopefully lol. There's a lot I don't know and this will be a hell of a learning experience. If anyone could fill me in on which devices that have some development going are most similar to this one, it would be a big help. I flashed the TWRP for the G360T1 before I found @adrwill2000's stuff since it has the same processor and specs and I'm sure you all know how that worked out...I guess I'll start by grabbing stuff for the device that our TWRP was ported from, unless you guys have any better suggestions. It would be best to start with trees from a very similar device. I almost hate to post this because it's very possible I will get nowhere, but I could sure use input from you guys that know this device well as to what my best starting point might be. Thank you.
I'm back to running H1 for now because it seems to be our latest that xposed is working on and imo this KitKat stuff sure needs some Gravitybox. Also, on mine, in J2, when I hit reboot it would reboot recovery. I was gonna fix it, but it's working in H1.
Scratch that...I found the Xposed updated for new 4.4s, so I'm on the deodexed, zipaligned j2 now. Thanks for all you've done with this, @adrwill2000...
It worked for me. My phone was bricked and I could not even get it to hard reset. Thank you!
Announcement: due to life complications in the form of a fire while I was away, all my current development for this phone has ceased until further notice. at some point I will start back up. but I digress;
AEX started messing up on my phone and I was able to use a friends laptop to flash the stock rom and made this verrrrrrry poorly made, yet functional dirty stock flashing zip.
its just a dd of the important partitions for stock rom, with magisk'd boot.img (you need the manager) and @Jleeblanch 's Resurected kernel v3.3

One Debloated Version is interesting
Without the risk of sounding dumb, can someone please explain to me the difference between NPS26.116-61 and NPS26.116-45-5? I have the XT1806 in the US (3GB\32GB)...How many variants of this phone exist?!

NPS26.116-61 has December 1 security patch, updated thermal configs, and camera updates, just google the rest of the maintenance release notes.
XT1802 to XT1806
Usually the variations are the GSM bands, which models have NFC / DTV, single / dual sim, etc.
No worries on the kernel, glad to see it put to good use
This worked like a charm, thank you!
Hello,
Thank you for making this ROM.
My Moto somehow lost both the IMEI's and faced no network issues.
After trying everything, your ROM worked for me and had resolved all the issues in it.
NOTE: We didn't had any backup of any kind but this ROM still saved the day.
Thank you!
Continuing to rise and modify the different variants of rom stock? how they did with the moto g older? As a collection of stock ROMs
For example:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/rom-stock-motorola-4g-lollipop-rom-t3142816
Please kindly upload it on any other cloud storage .
I can't open the zip it's giving me some error
Can this be dirty flashed over stock, rooted NPS26.116-45 in order to get the latest security patch?
I'm computerless at the moment if anyone could mirror for the guy having issues downloading it would be appreciated (all I have is gdrive anyway) sorry man

This only flashes /system /oem /and boot. It shouldn't mess with anything on DATA. It's safe to try, but I'd recommend backing up just in case.
I'm 90% sure it would work, as a dirty update. I've used it to dirty reflashes the whole system and not data and it worked fine. just be aware that magisk is weird ever since v15. Reflashes of it may be necessary.
Lost my IMEI by flashing custom roms too

hi, @ekamran
I also experienced you issue, no IMEI so no network, tried everything even this one. Still no IMEI. What are the things you tried prior to this to recover your IMEI? THanks.

Hey, This ROM is the only thing that has recovered my IMEI.
Before this, I had been in situation where my phone was stuck in BootLoader Mode only and couldn't even access Recovery Mode.
Then I had tried to flash the official firmware via Fastboot method of which some files installed and some didn't but fortunately, I regained access to Original Recovery Mode.
Then I had flased TWRP again and then flashed this ROM.
Everything sorted.
Thanks for developer
And keep it up
Does it work for the Indian variant

What is the use of flashing oem.
We only need boot and system . is there any risk in flashing OEM.img

i had changed the moto stock font. no risk, i think only the stock rom uses it normally. contains moto apps and stuff. when you flash an xml.zip it flashes it. i had originally tried to include the modem partition too but it was giving me issues. this is a stock rom so i included stock files, if you had somehow wiped or corrupted oem, stock rom (and possibly others) might not work correctly so i included it.

Hey CACTUS
I am very happy to test it
but can I install One UI 2 Port or can not ??
and thanks very much for your hard work 🫡
I tried the J730F that Kostareka uploaded, and it actually worked! And it's hella SMOOTH! I'll test it for a week and see what's in store for me. I think I'll try the other One UI pie roms on the J7 thread and see if it works. Thank you @Kostareka for creating this patch.
wow, thanks for the hard work. I've tried and it works. I'll give it a try for some time. I still have this tablet for my kid, but messing around with it... I love it
Btw what do you think of trying with this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-v4-5-a600x-exynos7870-arm64-08-2021.4287221/
It's Android 10 with one ui 2.5, the most recent rom that I've found for a Exynos 7870 device. Will it brick?

Hmmm I don't know if thats going to work, Kostareka said flash One Ui PIE roms not 10. And even if it does work, I don't really recommend it, because in terms of battery and ram optimizations, android 9 is it's max for this tablet.
If you're going to try it make sure to change the installer on the ROM you just downloaded otherwise the ROM will detect your device as unsupported.

I'm not really an expert but
1.EXTRACT THE ROM
2.OPEN THE EXTRACTED ROM AND FIND META-INF, THEN OPEN IT
3.OPEN 'COM' FOLDER AND INSIDE THAT FOLDER IS THE GOOGLE FOLDER, OPEN IT AND YOU WILL FIND THE ANDROID FOLDER,
4. INSIDE THAT FOLDER, YOU WILL FIND THE UPDATOR SCRIPT. YOU CAN EDIT OR CHANGE IT. IF YOU'RE GOING TO CHANGE IT USE THE UPDATOR SCRIPT FROM THE J730F THAT KOSTAREKA UPLOADED
5. IF YOU'RE TO EDIT IT, WATCH A YOUTUBE TOTURIAL ON HOW TO.
I never tried this before, but I'm going to try it
Back to the J730F Stock Rom, it has some trouble with wifi connections. It won't connect to a 5GHz wifi and it disconnects frequently from a 2.4GHz network.
It seems to be unable to receive a DHCP IP. I've tried with a static one, but it works with some errors from time to time...
