Hello people as the title states I recently purchased a note 9. I wanted to get the N960F model but when it arrived, to my surprise it was a N9600, which is no problem for me because snapdragon is a good thing, the only downside is the fewer development.
Anyhow I have some. Questions and I would like to hear your recommendations As I'm waiting the 7 days for the OEM unlock to appear.
1. Should I update the system? My n9 came with Android 8.1.0,but I don't know if I update it would be detrimental for the sake of rooting
2. Is this model rootable? I believe so but could you direct me to the thread on that regard.
3. Would you recommended self de bloating with TB or try WETA Rom?
4. What would you suggest: stay on stock + root or WETA Rom?
5. I've seen a lot of pie complains so should I stay on Oreo or give Pie a try? I come from the OnePlus3, I'm a former flashoholic XD and 'til my last moments with the OP3 I had HavocOS which was pie based, thus I'm hesitant to look back to Oreo.
6. This should be 1st but anyway do I need to unlock the bootloader or something special before rooting and installing twrp?
7. I've read that development for the SD version is difficult and that AOSP Roms are stuck because of gpu frequencies and other stuff, but do you think that this version will receive some. More loving from the development department in the future?
Thanks in advance guys and I appreciate your time in reading and for any suggestions you may give.
yes
Just like exynos, the bootloader is unlocked and you can always root it, version does not matter, pie , oreo. and yes you can also run all the GSIs on the phone cause its a Treble enabled device which helps a lot with roms and i think there will be much more roms for n9600 as well as soon as it ages a bit and people start rooting them. You could install WETA ROM or any other ROM / Kernel, Rooting is same as Exynos model except the TWRP has to be for Snapdragon

Thanks mate, in terms of rooting, should I use official magisk of a custom one?
On the twrp thread for the SD variant people mention the official. They just recommend versions 18.1 for Oreo and 19 for pie, is that alright?
And if I update my firmware and software over Ota before rotring and installing twrp, will it be a problem?
I´m using android phones since 2010, the first Android Version i started with was 1.6 Donut, and i´ve always had a custom rom running on all my phones, because i was missing features, performance sucked, etc ...
Now i think it´s time for a change ! Oxygen 9.5.4. really fits my needs, i don´t miss anything important, only a root based/magisk adblocker i used on omni (but i don´t wan´t to unlock the bootloader this time because widevine L1 would be gone )
I´ll change to the beta programm when it´s available to get early access to Android Q , but that´s it, no more custom ROMS for me this time .
Most things are achievable without root nowadays (Pixel Launcher with bridge, Youtube Vanced , etc) and i´m tired of daily /weekly flashing of custom ROMS and dealing with their bugs and not yet implemented functions ...
So, what is your opinion on that? Will you keep Oxygen or switch to your favourite custom ROM ? (When it´s available)
Think i might keep mine rooted+stock+substratum... But the stock android looks very good atm with LS customizations and a few other customizations + i like the pixel launcher where the searchbar gets these cool animations of what the google webpage has...

I will keep oxygen os I have the T-Mobile version of this phone but will switch to global oxygen os and flash the nolimits magisk rom
I'm looking forward to Renovate ICE rom. It's stock Oxygen OS but with a load of useful customisations and cosmetic theming options.
Yes you lose Widevine L1 but you get the best of OOS that you can't get on source built custom ROMS. It's a nice balance for me
The good thing about a bootloader unlocked device is choice.. can flash custom ROM anytime we want and change back to stock anytime also.. I'm actually quite ok with Oxygen OS as it is but can't help flashing custom ROMs when I see a good one up.. with OnePlus we have a choice but more and more manufacturers are making it very difficult for us to have that choice.. I've dumped S 10+ for that very reason and sticking with OnePlus stock for now
I'm going to keep a rooted stock rom, but will flash the global rom for faster updates once I get this bootloader unlocked.
That will all depend on whether we get fully functional FP reader for me. If we do then I think the phone will rock with a good custom rom in it.

That's why you should feed back testing info to the devs so they can fix them. They're not a massive corporation and they ain't getting paid to compile these roms.
Stock/root/substratum for a while I think. This is my first OnePlus device, want to play thoroughly first.

good point, as i remember there were some problems with some oneplus devices and FP reader !
i used omni rom on my oneplus 5t before and really loved it, but it took a lot of weekly builds until everything was implemented and working fine ... but then it was my favourite ROM
but for now i really will try to keep stock Oxy , i really like it and i´m tired of flashing and waiting for features ...
by the way, Arnova´s newest GCAM works fine on stock Oxy ... https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/changelog414/
Once we see a Pixel Experience rom I'll be switching for sure.
I'm definitely keeping my phone stock. Once I'm able to unlock the bootloader, then I'm going to the Global version. With the 6T, custom ROMS was having issues with the fingerprint scanner until about two months ago.
I was a flashoholic from the Droid X all the way to the Nexus 6P days but since getting the OnePlus 5 and then the 6, they were the only phones I never felt the need to flash a custom Rom. I won't be likely work this either. I unlock, TWRP, custom kernel and root the instant I get my phones but that's all I need anymore. OOS is more than fine
OxygenOS is great I have stayed on OxygenOS since oneplus 3
I will eventually flash a custom ROM ??
Im also surprised of how well OxygenOS is working and fits needs. Nevertheless I will try and use custom Roms. Just hope they run on 90 hz and the scanner works and also the selfie cam, otherwise I will stick to OOS.
One more who stays on OOS here, mainly because of immersive gestures support (even android Q still has his ugly navbar). But I rooted it on the second day, second because thought having L1 is kinda nice, but after discovering that even with L1 NETFLIX only outputs 720p I decided to unlock, magisk it and install adaway.
Waiting for pixel experience
I had a lot of problems caused by root on my current SGS9+
- not working Google Pay (had to do weird things to get it working)
- some banking apps displaying root warning and won't work or won't let me login by fingerprint
- lost some of the best Samsung features: Secure Folder for example
All I wanted root for was to remove bloatware...since OnePlus don't have much bloatware I only need AdBlock...for adblock I found 2 nice methods:
- https://adguard.com/en/adguard-dns/overview.html
- https://blokada.org/
For YouTube ads we have Vanced thing and I love it so...overall I don't think I will root my next device (which will be OP7Pro in a few days )
I will most likely keep OOS as well, it's been good to me and the first time I have ever remained on stock was starting with my 6T.
I just wish substratum overlays would show without having to reboot. Other than that, I have no issues with stock.
staying with oxygen as usual; it's very nice
The development of the rosemary is slow and I wanna install evolution x, but the unofficial version is only for mojito/sunny. Im scared that its going to brick/softbrick my phone if I do this. Will it brick if I install an official rom with mojito from xiaomifirmwareupdater?
Incompatible. Bad idea.
What would happen?
Is it a instant brick? Or will it be very buggy and slow? I only want to this due to there not being a supported twrp version for rosemary, and no custom firmwares. And no custom recovery. Only twrp version is for engineers and developers.
A ROM built specifically for another device won't work. If you want a custom ROM on Rosemary I would suggest learning about flashing GSI ROM using fastboot until ROMs specific to Rosemary are built which currently there are none that are released here on XDA
Does unofficial twrp have a rosemary twrp? Also does it increase fps? Im trying to get a light one like corvos. Since I have to be cautious cause my older device bricked when trying to install a custom rom
Yes unofficial TWRP is being built for Rosemary but it is in very experimental beta stage and is under heavy development. It will not give you miraculous fps increase
A slight one? Or just no? If no then il still check it out.
Should I use twrp? Or might it brick my device, or is it ready to install and factory reset?
Im not very experienced with mods all I need is a custom rom, root, twrp or a custom recovery and a custom boot screen. Does GSI give a custom boot screen? Or is it very slight changes?
Woah! It looks very nice, but, no custom recoveries? Stable? Or just twrp under heavy development?
If you are a novice do not install anything that is beta. To answer your main concern regarding FPS, the hardware is still the same regardless of ROM or TWRP.
Your options are limited to:
1. [Minor Factor] Google how to debloat MIUI using adb. This will free up resources marginally but not affect your fps by much
2. [Major Factor] Your FPS count is limited by how much heat is trapped causing the GPU+CPU to throttle. Cooling the phone while gaming like an attachable fan can work like it does on ROG phones. Get creative on cooling your phone rather than bricking a perfectly working one
Yes I know, but I find twrp easier than adb and fastboot tools. Its ok if it doesnt give me more fps, the important thing is that it doesnt decrease.
All I need is a custom recovery now. Do you recommend anything? Or there arent any?
https://unofficialtwrp.com/twrp-3-5-2-root-redmi-note-10s/
Is this the same twrp posted on this form? Or is it a 3.5.2 that is stable?
No official TWRP exists yet for Rosemary.
My suggestion is to wait until official TWRP recovery is made available. Keep a watch on the sub-forum for this device for any official news and releases until then
I used unofficial twrp on my samsung. That worked fine. Do all releases on unofficial twrp have to be stable? My samsung never bricked. So should I give it a shot and let you know? Also, do I need to flash disable encryption? with unofficial?
I dont know fi this sounds dumb but, im quite a noobie so, Does verify opt encrypt have to release for different phones? Or can I just flash the one on sourceforge?
STOP REPLY TO THIS THREAD !!! IT IS BULL**** !
Please moderator, close this !!!!
Dude, stop being so harsh im new to this stuff,
anyways, does this work as a gsi rom for rosemary? https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gsi-unofficial-11-pixel-experience-pixel-experience-plus.4269051/
SO IN A NUTSHELL, NO CUSTOM RECOVERY FOR THIS DEVICE?
You can't flash roms meant for different devices with different hardware, it will brick your device. It sounds like you don't know much about the processes so I suggest you start by reading some of the many great guides on the XDA forums first.
Hi, I'm new here and also suck at all things tech.
I recently got the Note 9 and it's just a beautiful phone in almost all aspects. I'm having some problems with it, but that's for another forum. I want to ask here about rooting and ROMs. Can the Note 9 be rooted and are there ROMs available for it? If so, what is the easiest way for me to go about rooting it and installing a custom ROM? Do I look for computer and cell phone stores in my city and ask them?
One of my past phones was rooted and had a custom ROM. It was splendid just because of the ROM and from then on, I couldn't imagine having a phone I didn't root and get a custom ROM for. Unfortunately, since then, all my phones have been ZTE which-- at least for a long time-- didn't have any available ROMs. If this phone can be rooted and upgraded with a custom ROM, awesome. If I can fix the other issues first.
You didn't say what processor your phone has so here goes:
For Snapdragon CPUs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/samsung-galaxy-note-9-snapdragon-roms-kernels.8318/
For Exynos CPUs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/samsung-galaxy-note-9-exynos-roms-kernels-reco.8016/
There are many custom ROMs, kernels, etc here in the XDA sections. In my opinion NobleROM would be one of the best ones just from what I've read/seen about it.
But do ask yourself if you really need root and a custom ROM on the Note9. I'm a guy who could never imagine having an unrooted phone until I got the Note9 - it has everything I'd want stock and there is also GoodLock modules which are made specifically for OneUI by Samsung and don't require root.
PS: Just NEVER put a Snapdragon ROM/kernel on an Exynos phone and vice versa or you'll most likely brick it.
Hey there. i have a s20 fe 5g (snapdragon, model SM-G781B), galaxy s8 (exynos), ans galaxy tab A 7.0 2016. Right now I managed to install Android 13 (Lineage OS 20 + NikGapps + Magisk for safetynet) on my backup s8 aswell I managed to flash Lineage os 14 (Android 7, along with Gapps) on my galaxy tab A. Im wondering to do the same about my S20 FE 5G since its support is unfortunately about to end. Thought of flashing TurboUI after i would unlock my device but just want to confirm its safe before doing so. What you guys think? Many thanks.

Hello
This will depend on what use you will give it.
Apparently you are not interested in any of the OneUi customization layer, nor Samsung Dex.
Personally, I am not interested in lineageOS or any rom that is not based on OneUi.
well with many errors, be fighting with incompatibility.
you will find GSI, Lineageos, etc.
I preferred stock rom with modified kernel, androd 13 will not stop working in 2023,2024,2025, etc.
I don't see the importance of moving to an invented and beta system for the team, at least at present.
You will find among the best options:
*stock,root,kernel(bandit,klimbo,etc)
*Turboui v4
*GSI.

Rn my S20 FE 5G is at binary 5. I dont care about rollbacking because i do like the latest verisons and have no use to move onto earlier versions. I just wonder if binary 5 would only limit me to this android 13 one ui 5.1 (like if i couldnt install an android 13 or even a future android 14 rom only because of binary 5). Would it be safe to switch to a custom rom that has the same patch and the same android version without binary 5 doing mess there (like i want to install the latest turboUI at one ui 5.1 may patch, is that possible?)
Rn the device is at may security update, I hope it solved this problem so I could safely move to custom rom without further issues. If I had screwed please let me know as possible to I could reconsider before doing so avoiding further damage. And yeah I have checked OEM unlock and it appears so i believe no issues should occur, just should factory reset (among with removing samsung and google accounts before doing so), enable debugging and oem unlock, go to download mode and then unlock bootloader, and then flash twrp and then whatever i think so.
And yeah I prefer one UI over stock android however the latest custom one ui version for s8 was only one ui 2.5 (hades rom) and no one even dares to make a new one for it, is just dead there. I felt urged to install android 13 so i had no choice but to flash LineageOS 20 (along with nikgapps and magisk). Meanwhile the S9 can get even one ui 5.1 ported via noble rom. I wish something would be done despite being 3 years already since.
But still I won't have prob flashing kernels instead of custom roms if so. Thank you very much.
Alright, just managed to install TurboUI without issues and against all odds.
I was worried because the new binary would mess there but still I managed to do it without issues, and I feel grateful for it
Speechless.
I can't appeal your urges to desperately switch roms.
reading the previous thing you wrote, I have nothing more to say.
If you have errors in the future, please go to the appropriate channels, (turboui, gsi tem, etc.)
Thus, avoid publications due to user errors without investigating before installing.
excellent day.

Alright, have to admit, learnt the hard way
there is SEVERE lack of custom roms there. The lineage OS cant mix with gapps and the custom one ui rom drains battery faster. I had no choice to revert to stock rom. I downloaded its firmware of april patch. Flashed it using Odin and it worked successfully!
You can call me an idiot for the rest of my life as you wish, i had should considered before doing so. Anyways I feel grateful for restoring its rom. But anyways if I would need safetynet I would welcome myself to do so.
I should learn more before installing these stupid roms. Maybe i will continue flashing on S8 but i wont longer flash on S20 FE since that incident. (And noice, the software firmware not matching, aka red message on bot disappear!)
If you have any suggestions youre welcome to tell me so, sorry for not beliving you at first. I should owe you everything
Have a nice night, ig, and I should learn much from that
I understand your inspiration to improve performance.
I've been doing this from symbian (nokia, sony ericcson, palm, blackberry, ios)
current times are not the same.
we are with more powerful processors.
larger and faster ram memories.
Over the years it took me to understand that it is currently not necessary to change the rom.
Example: you are with a s20 FE android 13, it is a completely current system, recently released last December.
I would not have to go to lineageOs, why?
Why did android 14 come out for lineageOs?
I'll have to break down my s20, of course not.
Seeking to get the most out of Oneui with a kernel that exploits its characteristics and without system bugs, seems to me to be a more suitable option.
When it is 2026 or 2027 see GSI options would be a good option.
repeat again, it is a personal thought, for so long I learned, to free myself from stress and constant mistakes.

Alright, just finished relocking my bootloader. Yeah, no more software updates but I can still download them online, and they are security updates so i guess not really a big loss because no more OS updates (One ui 5.1 is final!). Still I HAVE to learn from this incident onwards, maybe on 3 years whenever the device would be too old like the s8 only then i would reconsider doing so. But for now I would stay with this stock rom and I would keep updating it time to time as needed. Everyone makes mistakes anyways. And yeah bank apps continue to work despite device not being play certified, so I guess no root and safetynet would be required. Still, Im very sorry for now trusting you, and I would from now reconsider what Im doing. Lets hope it wont happen even again, peace
Edit: Also managed to get OTA updates and play certification back after relocking it, noice, updating to may patch shortly after recovering my data

I understand
my team is a:
G781B Oneui 5.1 patch February binary 4.
I'm in stock, recovery, no encryption, root, kernel Klimbo or bandit.
I am more than satisfied.
a kernel that delivers power, overclock, etc.
For games it is plenty, for daily use it is wonderful.
Sorry if my previous translation sounds harsh.
Only that I currently install several roms, kernels, graphic drivers, etc.
they only cause bugs.
If you are looking for something stable I recommend stock and what I mention.
greetings.
In banking matters, there are modules for magisk, they worked for me.

Yeah as I relocked my bootloader play certification and ota updates came back
No longer trusting those BS roms, only losers would do so. That rom has drained me much battery and only let me charge at 3W (Yeah I have charger with display, and this occured in real life!)?! What a BS rom tbh! The only positive point I managed to find was the Google feed, but who would burn their battery away just for google feed?! After reflashing stock rom much better!
Very important thing to consider if you even think about flashing a custom rom on your S20 FE 5G. DONT DO IT, YOU WOULD REGRET IT SHORTLY.
I have unlocked bootloader and OEM root.
Even so, I get updates that obviously I will not update.
The last strong update was 5.1 in February. We will not have 6.0, there is no point in updating.
I can go back from android 13 to 12 and 11. Is it necessary? No, but I have the option.
greetings.

In the end security updates should protect us from any kind of exploits, including dangerous ones
But as the devices continues to discontinue (I mean, from october 2023 will start Quarterly updates and year later fully discontinued, the point would of course rise again. But until this happens the custom roms have a chance to delelop as time is going, and if there wont be atleast 1 GOOD custom rom, whats the point to attempt to flash a human managed ROM just to later report bugs to them, impacting your daily basis and ect?
After the last security update on about 2024 I believe custom roms would have chance to rise again, just like it was with the S8. S8 ROMs are better than the S20 FE 5G's ones. I need this time to let the custom roms develop, and once they are developed enough I would reconsider on installing one.
Until then, good luck

I understand you.
The people who have the time to try the roms are appreciated and they are the ones who help the development.
in 2018 i had s9 snapdragon 845.
I was on oneui 2.5 android 10.
in your case you acquired s9 exynos. a jewel to know that note 10 lite would carry android 12 and 13.
They gave me an A7 2017, said note 10 lite managed to port oneui 2.5 android 10 (official was in 8.0 oreo)
I'm assuming your s9 runs android 13.
only that samsung Dex and iris lose or am I wrong?
Anyway, for day-to-day use, having the s9 with android 13 is great.
Yes, the roms for the s8 will be better, because the years have passed and the project is more mature.

I never had a s9 but I have a s8. The only problem with the S8 was that its latest One UI Rom is only maxed at One Ui 2.5 (Android 10, Hades ROM). Thats the only main one UI port available. You want to upgrade software? flash lineageOS then! Pretty dissapointing S8 only supports One UI 2.5 max meanwhile S9 supports one ui 5 max. And note 10 lite doesnt have as many custom roms as the S9. So just like the s8 got locked at one ui 2.5, the s9 would also lock at one ui 5? and after getting locked would the s9 users be forced to install stock android, just like on the case of the S8 users which the same happened to them earlier?

I never had a s9 but I have a s8. The only problem with the S8 was that its latest One UI Rom is only maxed at One Ui 2.5 (Android 10, Hades ROM). Thats the only main one UI port available. You want to upgrade software? flash lineageOS then! Pretty dissapointing S8 only supports One UI 2.5 max meanwhile S9 supports one ui 5 max. And note 10 lite doesnt have as many custom roms as the S9.

In the case of the s8 it is to be in 2.5 with android 10.
is a candidate for lineageos or gsi.
the exynos s9 will have up to oneui 5.1 ported from note 10 lite.
remember that originally it would be in 2.5 android 10.
you can still live with the s9 with note lite size on android13.
or at best go to s20 fe
Alright, an update after a while
Managed to successfully resolve the issue with Samsung health not working: I have installed a patched version and it's working like new. Just to note I shouldn't update it in any case. The only question is if it would sync with the watch. I mean it already can sync with the account, but I would to test it with the watch too. If everything is going fine I have no prob returning to Samsung. The fact I even didn't had to root to install modules only to patch this issue was wonderfull.
About secure folder and Samsung pass I don't care anymore about them and I had barely used them too, and I have no issue leaving them alone. Instead of secure folder I can use Google photo's safe to store my naughty photos, and about Samsung pass I can use Google passwords instead. Galaxy wearable has worked from day 1 since the issue no matter the incident.
This is a big lesson for my ass, and I shall be smart before doing naughty things like this again. Kids, please learn from me and don't be a stupid guy like me.
