note 8 port - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

where
ı am waiting still here :silly:

You can install S8 port rom like Khongloi rom and install all note 8 apps.
Khongloi rom : https://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/7-0-khongloi-nougat-rom-aod-edge-t3580620
Note8 apps: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...s-device-development/note8-apps-port-t3662555

I dont advice downloading khongloi. It is very unstable and after couple of days the phone starts restarting regularly up until u won't be able to use it and then you have to flash stock. I advise you to wait for a real note 8 port from a different creator.
That's my personal experience dunno about others.

That's mabye just your case.
By me it's the best ROM for N920C.
All works even without the Note8 funcions file
Just do it the proper way as the cook describes in first post.
Good luck !!

Many people in the thread of khongloi ( I know he's a legend) have complained of the same problems I experienced. This is mostly t mobile users with sm-n920t. It defiantly works better for the international version.

KHONGLOI rom is mainly coocked for Note 5 T-Mobile version. Developer is using this model. Please dont say it is causing problems because it is NOT.
Very stable actually.
Of course it must be properly flashed, thats all.

Khongloi is the most stable s8 port bruh, maybe you didn't flash well.

I have 920T in America and have been using Khongloi since my start over 4 months ago v10 and v11. I have never had a random reboot and performance fluid is perfect for me. I think it matters if you have bad app install or try redownloading the rom it might be corrupt and always do clean flash.

I would advice you to wait for official release mate
Right now there are couple of very good ICS ROMs but there is also a risk of bricking your note because ICS leaks kernel are somewhat faulty
Better safe than sorry

I agree. Hearing all the issues, not even about bricking frightens me. Although for those who have successfully installed ICS on the Note, I do envy you because stock android looks amazing! However, once official ICS is released by Samsung devs would prefect stock ICS I bet. =P
I have just come back to stock after using ICS ROMS.
I encountered a lot of problems such as:
not being able to transfer files from pc to note.(i had to take out SD card and use an adapter).
Phones rebooting randomly alot.
When trying to flash in recovery, the flashing procedure kept on freezing.
I think it is safe to stay on stock, where you will be problem free until official ICS release.

I've never had any of these problems that you mention. I don't think most users have either.
Can't transfer files? USB storage is now native to most ICS ROMS.
Random rebooting? Sounds like a personal problem to me.
Flashing in recovery and freezing? Okay, yeah that's a common problem...but it's an easily fixed problem, and it mainly comes about because you don't have proper root to begin with.
There's also some evidence recently that a few ICS kernels can cause permanent emmc (internal storage) failure that can not be revived. So yes, you probably shouldn't be flashing ROMS to begin with, as it sounds like you don't have much experience. This would put you in over your head for sure. It's best to wait until you've lurked around the boards for a bit and to wait for a stable and official ICS base to come out. Best of luck!

Personally am sticking to my current setup (ICS Stunner 1.4.19 + LP6) mainly because I have absolutely zero issues so far with great battery life, why fix something not broken? but also because of the recent news of the faulty kernels

[Q] waiting for safe ICS, what is best GB ROM?

hi everybody, now that Gingerbread roms development has almost stopped, here on xda we can find a lot of rom based on latest LC1 firmware. between all this rom i can't say which is the best one, so i'm asking you to give me some advices about your favourite rom.
i know you can tell me: "flash one after the other and try all ol them", but my note just came back to me after a month of assistance (bricked), so i don't want to start immediately flashing 5 or 6 roms.
P.S: i'm particularly attracted by "AllianceROM v3.4.1", what do you think about it?
Go for RocketROM v23. I guess its the best which i have used in GB So far

CM9 isn't safe?

it looks like it's safe, but since when i see a post that tell every possibility of having bug has been cutted off, i don't want to risk.
I cannot decide which to try first myself: darky rom or lightening rom?
I know you asked for GB ROMs, but I can tell you that I've been playing with Official CM9 and Asylum for a while now. Have done almost everything possible in Recovery, including multiple full wipes.
These ROMs are safe, they don't have the emmc bug, since they're built from i9100 (S2) update 4 sources. I'm just saying that because stock-looking ICS ROMs have greatly improved my personal experience on my Note.
That being said, best and least buggiest ROM for me was Darky. RocketRom is very nicely built by eybee who REALLY knows his stuff and most users have given awesome feedbacks. However, due to my way of using it, or...I don't know, Rocket used to lag considerably compared to Darky...
Best of luck finding what suits you mate!
LE: Also add ParanoidAndroid to the safe ICS list, if you're into the whole phone/tablet hybrid

for what i can understand, choosing as your favourite darky, you can tell me thay alliance rom (the darky's evolution) would be your next gb choice? please tell me, so i can flash. i know i'm paranoic not trying to flash asylum, but after using nokia 6630 for a month, i prefer a gb note instead of even minimum risk of brick. thanks alot.
You can try Checkrom HD v6. I have good memories ...

I understand that...
I suppose Alliance should be ok, it all depends on the way you use your phone... I've heard different reports on ROMs from different people, so...matters to find one suited for you. If you want to switch, make sure you carefully read the installation instructions, although most GB ROMs are a straight flash.
I'm sorry that we've had so many bricks around here...they're definitely enough to discourage any newcomer to Android or to flashing for that matter. This is my 4th Android phone and, to be perfectly honest, I haven't seen so many "bricked" threads on my other phones' forums.
I just wish people would've read a bit more carefully when installing...that's what got them stumbling into the emmc bug...
Best of luck and hope you'll find your way into some safe ICS soon enough
If you need any help, just let me know.

[Q] First time root of an S3 Mini GT-I8190N

Hi, I want to root my S3 mini, above model, running Android 4.1.2. I'd love to be free of the huge amount of bloatware that came with the phone so I can optimise its functionality.
However, I previously tried to root my Samsung Galaxy Y and ended up bricking the phone in spite of various attempts.
The endless threads going off in different directions are not particularly helpful either.
Also, if I do manage to root the phone, how can I be sure that there won't be conflicts with Samsung firmware updates etc.
I'm trying to make the process as smooth as possible. I know people on here give their time freely and appreciate that but losing half a day just trying to get a bricked phone back to its original state is not much fun.
Hey bro while upgrading any samsung device it is told that if the device is rooted i may cause problems.. So i think the mistake you make is upgrading your phone after rooting which eventually leads you bricking your device....

you won't get any samsung updates after rooting so there won't be any conflicts.
maybe these videos will help you how to root and install a custom rom.
I'm using the I8190 and I can asure you, once you have found a ROM that fits your needs, you won't miss Samsung updates. You can simply flash the new ROM, or you can wait and have a look if there are problems reported, then you stay on the firmware.
Downgrade? No problem.
Wanna change Rom? No problem.
Once you got for root and maybe even an upgraded ROM you won't miss a thing
OK, how do I know what mod is the best given my spec?
You mean which ROM?
Well, you can try a few and see which one fits your needs best, simply search the forum
I was referring to the CyanogenMod 10.2 mentioned in the video posted.

I personally prefer CM 11, for me its quite stable and got a wide variety of features :good:
Other than the cynogenmod by maclaw, stay tuned in for the android L release (which maclaw also will build yay).
OK, can you give me a link for the latest most stable CyanogenMod/Rom? Thanks.

For 1st time, I not sure to install a Custom ROM

Hi,
I got the 1+3 since 3 days, and I must say that from the ROM point of view I quite happy with it ;
It is ...
1. Stable
2. Quick
3. Battery friendly
4. Enough customisation
5. Not Bloatware
Of course there is room for improvement in each points, I know, but ....
Usually I root for point 4. & 5. and I put Custom ROM for point 1. 2. & 3.
But this time, I´m not so hurry
Same here. I have rooted to solve memory management issue but dont really fancy putting a CM rom on it. Will wait until there is a stable oxygen rom I think
I will wait also. Hopefully more CM13 mods will come and improve performance in general.
I got it since 2 days and was very surprised on easy unlocking bootloader and rooting. ROM seems stable and quick enough. I assume that I will wait for an Android N port before I change to a custom ROM. Has someone an idea if there are already devs on the way to cook N-ROMs for different devices?
Same here, only rooted it for the memory fix, OOS have everything I want
I will for sure flash RR and Bliss Flashing Roms is why i bought this device.

I haven't even rooted - but I am quite happy with Oxygen 3, feel no great urge to customise or get CM etc installed. I really like it.
Does Android Pay still work on your device??
Thought I was the only one.
No intention of rooting at the moment.
Have a few apps for work that need a stock phone, plus banking apps etc.
But yep OOS3 seems to have everything with nova launcher.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
Same here, OxygenOS is awesome so far, but I rooted for Xposed.
Those that have been flashing roms for 3+ years pretty much get tired of doing it and want all stock. New people get excited about flashing new roms and do it for 3+ years until they end up getting tired too
Valid points for staying on OOS, it's a good rom that has most all customizations I need and the rest I can get with xposed...
Thing is do you EVER plan on flashing a rom? My answer is of course so I decided to go ahead and decrypt (format data) now as opposed to later after I have all my music, etc loaded on.
Running Grarak's CM13 swimmingly.

Well in my case, I've been flashing rom's for 8 years. This is the first device I've not felt the need out of the box.

+1 here. I've been rooting phones for 5+ years as soon as I got them. But now, I'm wondering if I even need to bother.
Yeah, this is hard one. Thanks devs for quickly coming up with root, unlock, custom, and tweaks. Not sure if rooting is needed. I think we can all agree, if you want more out of the devices, you quickly root. For some reason, that's not necessary for one+3. I'm pretty sure we will get bored and devs will come out with super awesome Roms in the near future with many added tweaks. But this phone is solid. Might need a month's of stock rom usage and more arising issues before I will jump to rooting. Great device no complaints..
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yes also for me. Great Rom and the first time that I don't want to change the rom!
Gesendet von meinem SGP511 mit Tapatalk
I agree, I actually like this stock, I got pretty much everything I need, iI will just miss flashing nightlies but I won't miss all the down time and missed text messages
Been flashing ROMs for 6 years now, always running cm, and I have been seriously considering given oos a few days before flashing, but also I'm to used to cm
I'm waiting for Multiboot/Dualboot patch...keeping Stock-Rom on first "partition" and Custom-ROM on second...

Question: Using sm-n920c in usa (at&t)

Hi all,
I recently ordered SM-N920C on ebay. I have not received it yet, expect to get it sometimes next week. I am going to use it on AT&T network, and checking several threads here, some mentioned that it works on AT&T.
I have no idea what stock installed firmware come with it (since I don't have the device with me), however per ebay seller listed as SM-N920CZKAXFA, so not sure, it seems like south africa.
ok now here are my questions:
1. Does it makes big differences what firmware it is on if you live in USA (like Google play, Google acting crazy since you are in USA..etc)
2. I heard that there could be issue with getting 4G/LTE performance issue, etc. Do you experience it any differences? or any other issues you experienced while using it on AT&T?
3. I am planing to root it, I know there are couple of custom kernels out there for it, would you recommend stock kernel or custom kernel? I like to keep phone pretty much stock based since this phone will be my daily drive.
4. If you recommend custom stock base ROM, what would be?
5. I hope Samsung brings back "Note" brand! (no this is not question )
appreciated in advance if you give some feedbacks above concerns and questions!
thanks,
J.

I saw that you was asking in the tmo 920t thread the 920c will work great with att, thats what im using mine with and with LTE. Just root with cf-auto root everything you need are in the thread. When i rec. mine it was on 5.1.1 lp but odined to mm. You shouldnt have a problem at all on att with the 920C.

thanks for this info, made me feel a bit better knowing it will work on AT&T. As far as rooting goes, based on my research on threads, most recommends custom kernel(s) for easy rooting, but seems like using custom kernel may introduce some other issues (based on bugs they listed).
are you using it as stock and rooted? or you are on custom ROM?

Every device i own is rooted except my att note 5. You can root with cf auto root from odin with stock kernel but will trip knox 0x1 its no big deal with me being in the states using a international device no warrenty anyhow.. https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ This is the cf auto root just look for the file N920C But this one is for mm firmware. Ive already flashed most of the roms on the 920c thread and all behave pretty good. But with kernels i mostly use stock kernel or skyhigh kernel. Your just have to play around a bit and see what works best for your liking....

same here....I always rooted all my devices (except my Nexus 6P), and I really don't give darn about warranty, and top of this Note 5 (bought from ebay, still did not receive it yet) has no warranty anyway.
so simple download CF-Auto-Root file for 920C and flash it with Odin..done....looks like CF-Auto-Root-noblelte-nobleltejv-smn920c.zip there now says 6.0.1 (MMB29K.N920CXXU2BPB9), so seems like it is up to date.
by the way, someone told me stock kernel gives better battery life than custom kernels......ohh well, like you said, play around and see what works....but I have feeling I will stick with stock kernel (rooted with CF-Auto Root).

Your on the right path then after rooting with cf autoroot with odin first then flash twrp in odin 3.0.2.0 img.tar file https://dl.twrp.me/noblelte/ after you got that set up make a fresh backup of that stock rom so you always have it. Battery life depends on the user and the number of apps each user uses if one gets 5 hrs sot that doesnt mean the other users will..

Hi Kenny,
I finally received my Note 5 - SM-N920C.
One question: when I checked About Device, right under Software Info tab, it says United Arab Emirates, probably the firmware it is on I guess...
well, i guess my first two step will be root it and then install TWRP, then think about trying some stable N7 port ROMs that can be my daily drive without bunch of bugs...
