ar emoji note 8

coming to note 8?

I do not believe! Officially, you have to buy S9, but after Note8 gets Oreo, it can be done porting the S9 application on Note8.

Port
Is porting the app a relatively simple process? I have flashed my Note 8 to Oreo and I'm curious about porting the app.

No - Its not easy and the AR emoji was made specifically to work on the S9 - it probably will not work on the Note 8 at all...but maybe there is a developer who could work magic. Don't expect to see it for a long time

Must port with cameraS9.apk.I expect Note9.

I think you are in the wrong thread we're talking about a note 8 camera not Google camera apk

There is a app that works like ar emoji...
Its really cool app....
And the app name is booble keaboard...you can get this app in playstore

i just finished with a new update of my note 8 with oreo .. but unfortunately it doesn't support ar emoji

So the Note 8 definitely will not get AR emoji? I just got a notice few months ago when I'm not really into the note series I really want the 9 plus I should have waited. The note is too big for me and I like the fingerprint sensor on the nine.

Officially from Samsung, probably not.
Have you held a S9+ yet? It is a tad bit smaller than the Note 8 but not by much, pretty much the same. If you want to swap to a S9+ only because of size, you might be disappointed. S9 would be a noticeable difference but hardware is not the same as S9+

Yes I've held the S9 Plus we originally had the 7 Edge and wanted to upgrade but the 8 plus wasn't enough difference for us to upgrade. And then we saw specs of the note we got it only because it had the dual cameras an the 6 gigs of RAM and was the latest phone out plus Samsung gave us 300 bucks for our 7 edges which is the price we paid for them from Sprint on a two-year contract. But I knew the nine would be out in a few months and I should have waited. But we didn't know that Samsung would still be given $300 out for the 7 Edge so that's another reason we did it that quickly. I'm not really into the note series I have small hands and I never use the pen I don't like where the fingerprint sensor is.
The S9 plus has dual speakers with Dolby Atmos better camera the intelligent scan and of course the AR Emoji which I believe would like to have. Was going to sell my note and get the S9 plus but we just got our phones a few months back and my husband doesn't want me doing that and spending the difference on an S9 Plus so I'm hoping the note get some of the features of the 9. We've only had our notes for like 3 months I paid 650 and got offered 550 but then I'd have to pay 850 for a S9 plus unlocked so it's probably not going to happen

I have seen numerous videos and articles that all seem unanimous in suggesting people not upgrade from the Note 8 to the S9. They actually feel that it’s almost a downgrade because the only thing you are really getting is a better chip and the speakers. The S9+ is different where you aren’t losing items that the Note 8 has other than the S Pen, which in my opinion is a big loss, but you are gaining potentially a camera that’s better in low light. However, again every suggestion I’ve seen was to not upgrade. There was one person who said if you really don’t use the S Pen then maybe. I also wanted to point out what the other individual was trying to point out and that’s the difference in size. It’s S9+ at 158 x 74 x 8.5 mm and the Note 8 at 163 x 75 x 8.6 mm. So the dimensions are almost identical. You may want to hold them both in your hand. One suggestion I have for you is something that happened to me personally. When I had the Note 2 and the Note 3 was coming out, I had a friend who asked me if I was going to upgrade. I said honestly, no. I don’t really draw and really don’t use or need the S Pen. He proceeded to show me just a few things that I was unaware of and then suggested I look at a particular site and YouTube video. I ended up buying the Note 3 and everyone except the Note 5 because it didn’t have the SD card. I was completely unaware of all the capabilities. So before you pass on the Note series as a whole, I would just suggest you really learn all of the capabilities of the S Pen.
The other thing that doesn’t help is Samsung got rid of the old S Note in favor of Samsung Notes which is an inferior app. The original S Note came with Action Memo, Photo Note, Easy Chart, Idea Sketch, Scrapbook, etc. In my opinion it’s probably the best app ever for the S Pen and maybe even the best app period. I was going to say if you’re interested there’s a way to get it installed that I learned from another Thread in this site. However, I just updated my phone to Oreo and it messed up some of it. It looks like we can’t get Easy Chart installed and Photo Note looks to only work in landscape. But this just happened over the weekend, so I’m hoping that someone will figure out a solution. If you do end up with the S9+, I hope you enjoy it!

There is a post here where some guys teach how to enable scrapbook and all features and apps. Also I modded all those apps to work on nougat but I don't try yet on oreo because i don't need it now. You should try it; I'm agree with you, s note had been the best Samsung app with all features.

It seems that on oreo is really not working... to bad.

Thanks everyone! For now I am keeping my Note 8. My husband says we just got these 3 months ago and if I sell my Note and only get 550 I still have to pay the difference for the unlocked s9 plus. I just wish we would of waited but we didn't know Samsung would still be giving $300 for the 7 edge. But I have small hands and I know the 9 plus is big too I like where the fingerprint sensor is. I don't use the pen or know about other Notes and what they had but I do love my Note it's fast and I have no complaints and will be getting Oreo on my unlocked in the next couple weeks. All carriers have it now I read. But yesterday I did play with an S9 that was in this little Best Buy mobile at the mall and I made a gallery of like 18 AR Emojis and sent them to myself than deleted them off the phone so I could see what it looked like. I've seen a 9 plus on display too and yesterday he said here hold an 8 plus same as 9 plus. I wouldn't do a regular 9 cause of hardware but I was also thinking I maybe should just wait for the S10 and maybe it will be 5G ready.
We have Sprint and got unlocked so we could switch to another carrier here soon. But thanks for now I will keep my Note if hubby would of let me I probably would of done it though and got a purple s9 plus but I am not unhappy and I love my Note works great. Just hope battery stays the same or is better once we get Oreo. Cause I always had to charge my 7 edge at work in the lower level with no signal my Note I never have to charge.

Help making a decision

Hi guys and girls,
I need your help! I have a pixel c. And I'm getting a bit fed up with the lack of optimised apps for it. Games mainly. Essentially, my question is, shall I dump the pixel c and get a note 8? What's it like playing infinity engine games on it, and say the final fantasy series? My current phone is a very old Sony, Z5 compact. So it's too small to game on, hence I have the pixel c. Was thinking the note 8 could combine my 2 existing devices?
I know I'm going to loose some screen estate, but the note 8 is pretty much the biggest phone you can get...
Thank you
Ian ?

If your primary interest is gaming, you better get a s9+, the number 1 factor for considering a samsung note series device should always be the S PEN

screen size*

I love my Exynos Note 8 but I agree, in your case I would get the S9+. The S9+ Exynos version looks to be a great jump in performance over the Note 8. Hopefully the rumors about throttling it down aren't true.

Coming From Pixel 3 XL - Doubts

Hi Everyone,
I recently bought the Exynos version of the Note 9 and will be handing the Pixel 3 XL to my wife. After reading through a lot of threads, I'm starting to have doubts if that was a wise decision. The reason why I went with Exynos is because I did not like the bloatware on my Tmobile Note 8 that I owned before and wanted to flash a custom Rom. I wanted to clarify a few things.
Will I have issues using the Exynos version with Tmobile? I read that I may be running into LTE issues?
Which Rom would you recommend that works without major issues? I know that this is a personal opinion. I don't want to load the Pixel Experience ROM if it means that half of the features will not be available. I am using Nova launcher, so the launcher is not that important to me. What is important is not losing features that make the Note 9 a Note 9, but also not having extra Samsung apps that I will never use but will slow down the phone or drain the battery. Basically, what I would want is the rawest Google experience without losing features.
Thanks!

You should of got the TMobile note 9 then flash the N960U1 UNLOCK firmware which has no bloatware.

I like the option of having an unlocked bootloader in case a more stable Pixel Experience Rom is eventually released. From what I understand, that is not an option with the Snapdragon...
I also like the dual sim option, where I can use my work and personal sims on one phone.

Many of the Samsung apps can be uninstalled or disbeled. Battery life is awesome on Note 9. I'm coming from a pixel 2 xl 128gb. A can say that I'm fully satisfied with Note 9. Camera received a huge improvement if compared with my past s9 plus and even compared with my old pixel. Google did a great job ruined Pixel 3 xl with that horrible notch.
Note 9 has full package that any smartphone user are looking for
My version is Snapdragon

Here is the issue with the 960F: you will lose carrier aggregation, which means when you enter an area that uses a different LTE band for T-Mo, your phone won't automatically switch over like a T-Mobile branded model or the Unlocked U1 model would. It also doesn't support Band 71 (and maybe not Band 66), which is part of T-Mobile's advanced LTE Network.
You may also have some difficulty getting Samsung Pay to work, since your phone is from a different region.
And once you unlock the bootloader, you break Knox, and you lose Samsung Pay, Secure Folder, Samsung Pass, and some other features. PERMANENTLY. No way to recover them. Knox is an e-fuse, not software.
My recommendation would be to get the US Unlocked N960U1, or get the T-Mobile branded N960U and flash the U1 firmware. They are the same exact device hardware-wise and support all of T-Mo's LTE bands.
Then use either ADB commands or Package Disabler Pro to uninstall or disable any bloatware you want. You don't need root to do it. Just check the debloat thread. Honestly, I don't debloat anything. I hide the apps I don't use, and they neither take up memory or battery. Cause they aren't used.
If you don't like the Samsung Experience launcher, use Nova, or Rootless Pixel Launcher. And then apply the free Pixelized theme from the Samsung theme store. It will then look like a big Pixel 2 XL.
If you want to block Ads, follow the Adhell thread and build a copy of Adhell (I think we're on 3 or 3.1 now).
Then add a debit card to your Samsung Pay app, go to the grocery store and have some fun using your phone to buy them when the cashier tries to tell you they don't accept Apple Pay.
I was a Nexus and Pixel fanboy. I've had every Nexus since the Galaxy Nexus (what a ****show that phone was, but God I LOVED it). I've had a few Pixel XLs, and a couple Pixel 2 XLs. I have unlocked, rooted, and ROM'd till my eyes bled. I understand where you're coming from.
I've dabbled in other phones. I've has some Samsung's, some LGs, some Motos, and even a couple iPhones. I always came back to Nexus/Pixel.
Then I got the S8 Plus and I fell in love with Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass. But I didn't become a true Samsung fanboy until the Note 8.
I tried to go back to the Pixel 2 XL and just gor bored with it. I missed the Note features. So I sold it and now I have a 512GB Note 9. It's the ATT model, which I unlocked, flashed the U1 firmware, and am running on T-Mobile. No complaints. Haven't even given the Pixel 3 XL a second thought. It doesn't hold a candle to this phone. In MY opinion.

Thank you all for your replies. Very helpful.
Having had a Note 8 until October of this year, I do not mind losing Secure Folder and Samsung Pay to get rooting capabilities. I never used Secure Folder and while Samsung Pay was a cool feature to show off to friends when I first got it, I barely used it after the first month. Reason being - if I'm paying for something, I'm not at home and need to drive somewhere. If I'm driving, I need to bring my wallet/license.
Band 66 appears to supported with this Exynos version.
Band 71 is currently not supported where I live and by the time it is, I will probably be on my Note 11
Biggest drawback appears to be Carrier Aggregation. I work from home and am typically on Wifi about 90% of the time. This one I am OK with losing as I don't go over 2GB data on my Tmobile plan.

And some people don't care about SPay or Pass. Me, I can't live without them. I COULD, but you know what I mean. I use them all the time. I can just throw my DL in my pocket and not worry about someone stealing my debit and credit cards I'd they get ahold of my wallet. Especially nice at the gym when I don't want to carry my wallet around or put it in a locker. Also been handy a few times when I forgot my wallet, LOL.
And now I have a Gear S3, so I just pay with my watch.

I just wanted to update this thread for future reference in case someone as curious as me decides to do the same thing. So far the connection has been great. I have compared the speeds of my wife's Pixel 3 XL to my phone back to back from the same spot, and I'm getting about 45 mbps download speeds vs 60 mbps on the XL. The upload speeds for both are about 19 mbps.
Anyone who likes to mod roms and likes dual sim capabilities, getting this phone is a no brainer. 45 mbps lets you stream at 4k without any issues - so speeds higher than that are not necessary unless you use your phone to download a lot of data.
Having come from the Snapdragon 845 in the Oneplus 6T and the Pixel 3 XL, I can not tell any performance differences in real world scenarios. Only thing that I miss are the low light camera capabilities of the Pixel 3 XL.

Coming from P3xl...

Hi all, i found a decently priced sm-g975f
i use t-mobile
Will this be a good fit for me considering i want to root etc.?
Has anyone came from the pixel 3 lineup?
Thanks

it depends s10+ rooting and custom roms are easy to do (in my opinion) i'm currently running LineageOS17.1 paired with my Samsung Galaxy Watch flawlessly, if you want better pictures i guess the pixel 4 XL is the way to go (I'm actually thinking of selling my s10+ and buying the Pxel 4 XL)

Naturally, I agree, but after google messed up the pixel 3 xl with performance and memory issues, i'm hard to trust they did right by the pixel 4, especially for it's price, i already spent 1k on a device that didn't live up to the expectations (camera aside), cant' justify spending another 1k with them for what might end up being the same again.
Also what seller on ebay should I be buying the SM-G975F from ?

Question Pixel 3

I currently have a Verizon Pixel 3. I was looking to upgrade to the Pixel 5. The only problem is it doesn't seem like an upgrade. The camera is the most important feature for me. I also don't like Samsung bloatware.
Question:
Should I upgrade to the S21 Ultra or wait for the PIxel 5a?

I went from the pixel 3 to the 21 ultra and the camera is so worth dealing with Samsung's software but get it direct from Samsung not Verizon then you will not have Verizon's bloat. But if the next pixel is what your set on don't waste your time on the 5a get the 6. I am hearing good things about it.
