So how come you can get the rom for snapdragon but not exynos.... I'm aware it's not officially out I'm talking about custom roms here
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note8 using XDA Labs
Here's the thing. The snapdragon Oreo is a very early leak. So far there have been no leaks of Oreo for the Exynos Note 8. Different hardware, different kernels keep us where we are... waiting. I am sure once there is a leak or release of official Oreo we will see new custom rom's

You are asking for help, ok, you did not like one answer, ok again, but do not do exactly the same thing you complain about, for the other part, oreo rom was short lived beta first release to certain countries for snapdragons, not exynos, they stopped due to certain issues, and if you follow the progress of exynos note 8, you would know about it, If you are interested in flashing roms and mods, I sugest you to read first how roms and mods are installed, not here in specific forums, but in the general forums in XDA, after that, you can start reading about device-specific roms in exynos note 8 section, if you do not find roms there, then simply there aren't any yet, be more polite the next time you do not like an answer

I was not aware the oreo rom for snapdragon was a leak I thought it was a rip if some sort from the s8 plus rom

He was rude, you were rude. I guess the Note 8 is bringing out the worst in us.
Hopefully soon this will be over. What pisses me off about the delay is that I had the choice of getting the Snapdragon Note 8, for a lot less than what I shelled out for the exynos note 8. But I can remember thinking there was more Support for exyno, and they received leaks/updates faster.. If only I could go back

Well, dont regret it, when oreo outs, it will be released for both versions, the exynos versions have always been more versatile, in my case I never would have chosen the snap, as I wanted the 128 GB storage model
Ok guys this thread has been cleaned Let keep the comments down like this and keep it on track:good::good::good:
Reading and researching is essential

The Snapdragon one is the Official OTA update that has been uploaded to carrier servers to push out. It's just a way of manually installing it before carriers push OTA.
You don't find Oreo..... Oreo finds you
Hi folks, I've tried searching and browsing through the forum but all I see are other models of Note 8.
Anybody has knowledge if the Korean version of N950S/K/L can be rooted and flashed with a custom ROM?
Thank you so much.
Hi,
As far as I know, the only Qualcomm note 8 that could be rooted was the N9500 from china.
Everyother model with Qualcomm chipset had a thing called safestrap with which you could get some functionality.
You can check the pages here on XdA for the Korean version.

Uhmm according to a few websites, the SM-N950K/L/S are exynos soc's not snapdragons .
But here is the confusing thing out of 3 websites 2 says they are Exynos soc's and 1 says snapdragon soc, hmm.
The op;
Chech phone info app from play store and see whose soc you got. If Qualcomm snapdragon then look at the safestrap method as @centaur31 suggested. But I think its only for the North American models SM-N950U1/U/W.
But is Samsung Exynos then below:
They should be bootloader unlockable, just check developer options for the oem switch.
As for any custom roms support I would check out the note 8 rom forums and find a rom for Exynos you like to use and search the thread and then ask if you didn't find your answer.
I would look at Dr. Ketan's rom thread first.
Thank you, if I'm not wrong, the Koreans have the Exynos. So in this case, it can be rooted? Isn't it irritating for Snapdragon users being unable to root their phones?
Title tells all.. I want my Verizon S20 Fe Rooted.. Anyone have any recommendations...Thank you in advance
go to the roms and kernels forum and read the TWRP snapdragon thread. you'll get who or what you need reading that.

I just wanted to ask if the fingerprint lock works after rooting? Since it is powered by knox and from what I've read, rooting trips knox and all its services. Please guide.

Hi, i checked those instructions and for unlocking the bootloader, it appears not to be an option for those of us with G781W (Canada version). Am I out of luck for now? Device shipped with latest firmware.

follow a guide on the process, there's a format of the data partition involved for bootloader unlock, for magisk and for internal memory encryption removal.
if you want root without TWRP follow this guide https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
if you want root AND TWRP visit the kernels recoveries and roms section, see afaneh92's TWRP thread for snap dragon.
read and read again until you've got a rough idea what you need to do. make sure you've got everything you'll need before you start.

Hey bro, idk if you will read this but i really need help with rooting an S20 FE Snapdragon. I was decided to buy an S20 Plus Snapdragon, SM-G986U, I was ready for purchasing it but just days ago I noticed in many forums here that S20 Snapdragon couldn't be rooted, only Exynos based in, so as the S20 Plus couldn't be I thought S20 FE would be the same, but reading all the replies here I think I have a hope now. I want root because I play Fortnite Mobile and root allows me to unlock 90 fps on any device. I really hope you can help me, of this depends if I purchase a new phone or not lol.
I thought u could please help me in root process of S20 FE or maybe S20 Plus if it's possible.

what country are you in ?
if you're in the US or Canada you won't be able to root now sadly. in other countries the FE with snapdragon or Exynos can both rooted
HOWEVER... if you want a 90fps refresh rate then NONE of the FE models support it, the hardware physically cannot do it. it's 60 or 120 nothing else.
Is there root for SM-G781U1/DS? It's an unlocked S20FE using Verizon.

Is there a current list of which versions can be unlocked and rooted? AT&T in the US recently added a number of international models to its whitelist.

Samsung mostly sells snapdragon flagship phones in the US and Canada, they're only locked because Samsung does what the US carriers want. but Samsung also only usually sells the snapdragon versions of it's phones in America, Canada and Asia. people think all snapdragons can't be rooted but that's not true.
if you buy a snapdragon Samsung from outside of the US or Canada you'll be be able to root it. if you buy an FE in the states you WON'T be able to unlock it, it's all about where you buy the phone.

sadly no.
Is the snapdragon version rootable? Has anyone rooted their snapdragon version?
I don't have that version but the answers are yes and yes.
the method to root with just magisk is the same for all phones more or less, with TWRP you can follow the instructions for the 5G version and use the 5G TWRP.

i had read somewhere, it think it was the snapdragon 855 s10, that werent rootable. Are you %100 sure this s20fe with snapdragon is rootable? Also is it doable with magisk?
Qualcomm chips on Samsung phones sold in the US and Canada have locked bootloaders, since the 4G snapdragon isn't on-sale in North America you are going to be OK. I've spoken with 4G users who've rooted and there are threads and replies here you could've read that confirm all this.

thanks a lot for the clatification ive looked around a bit saying they were successful but they say like "ye i rooted my s20 fe" and it makes you doubt is he really talkin about the sdg? (even tho its under sdg thread)
Btw do you know if magisk works too?
yes magisk works, flashing via TWRP and then updating is the easiest way.

Hope, gona help people understand more, which model to go for, as usually Snapdragon are prefered, but dont go for US models...
