[GUIDE][PIE]INSTALL ONE UI] Install The OneUi On A8 2018 Phone - Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) Guides, News, & Discussio

Hello XDA users, since some time we all heard about the annoncement of Android Pie for A8+ 2018
but the A8 2018 still without it yet, and also the A8 2018 korean model is in beta program which is an identical model of the a8 2018 international model, so today i wanted to explain how you guys can install it
BEFORE WE START:-
im not responsable of any demage that can happen to your phone
so get a backup first !! and use your mind
this wont be a step by step guide and it needs TWRP to be installed
LETS START: at the down you need to download the SM-A530N dump HERE which we will be using
after that extract the zip and you will find a system.img, boot.img and a modem
you will need a kitchen to extract the system img and make a zip from it, i recommend using Superr Kitchen
once you extract the system img put the boot img inside the project folder
then go to the system folder and try to debloat it a bit from korean stuff in app and Priv-app folders
then you can pack a zip using the kitchen then transfer it to your phone and flash
flash the rom then DONT REBOOT you need to flash the rmm status blocker by mesa and vertify zip 6.0
then you can reboot
once you reboot you might see a black screen with only your led light on
its normal just wait for it you will see a white boot animation
the rom is not stable much because its a beta software and also its from a korean model so somethings might be messed up
like the media server which will cause your phone to crash sometimes when for example you play a song and run a video at the same time
wish you all a good luck
credits :-
to mohit and a sm a530n user who shared this dump to make this guide possible
once i get their handles i will post em here :laugh:

You can use a app like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tkstudio.sboot to change boot animation or some ROMS like jasmine rom 7.0 have the original samsung logo boot sequence, for the app to work you need root and read carefully before doing anything. Hope this helps.

Well if you mean like accessing and editing system files I'm not how to do edit them but I know that you can use a app like root explore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.explorer that's the free version the paid one is $3.99 in the US. With that you can move and add files to system folder you can edit permission of files and things of that nature.

Well system file is where all the data and software is at basically everything visible on the phone. Maybe this article could help it deals with modifying samsung rom and flashing it. If you want to read more on it here's the link: http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/85703/modifying-samsung-rom-and-flashing-it-on-a-device if you wanted to remove apps or add custom apps to your phone you would modify system file.
But what I thought was important was this;
(I did not write this thread)
< "You should be able to use an archive program on PC and recompress to .tar, .gz, and others. Dont forget to re-sign the archive. Keep a copy of your untouched ROM until you have the modified ROM tested and running.
The ROMs are signed with a signature. When repacking if they don't get signed they will fail in flashing. This link will help explain it.
So basically after downloading the firmware you have to rename it so you can extract the files, change them as you need, recompress them again and re-sign them, so you can flash them using Odin." >
This thread was dealing with modifying CM rom;
< "There are multiple solutions available:
Re-Zip the Image
Advantage: You do it once, and can use the resulting image for multiple devices. That's what I did with CM7.2 for my Milestone 2. Easy enough to do:
create a temporary (empty) folder
unzip the zip file to it
remove unwanted *.apk files from /system/apps (be careful of what you remove, of course)
zip up the directory contents again
Using a graphical ZIP manager (like WinZip or the like), steps would be even easier:
open the zip file with the archive manager
remove the unwanted .apk files
if the ZIP manager requires it, save the manipulated zip
Manually cleanup after flashing, using the shell
This is what ce4 recommended in the comments. It requires you using a terminal emulator on your device:
Flash the image as-is
remove superfluous stuff from the system partition by hand (like rm /system/big/junk/example.mp4)
Manually cleanup after flashing, using other tools
Almost the same as the previous method, but a bit more user-friendly. Disadvantage: this won't do for superflous ringtones and the like:
Flash the image as-is
Use a tool like Titanium Backup or Root Uninstaller to remove unwanted system apps" >
Edit: this link explains the signature of the file: (from google) https://code.google.com/archive/p/zip-signer/

Ok so I may have found a solution for you it requires a pc and to download a program. You'll need your rom and any apps you would like to insert into it. The program is as simple as right click and delete for any apps you want to remove. The program is made by a developer on XDA named "_Logie" here's the link to the Web page: http://m.tech.firstpost.com/news-analysis/how-to-add-or-remove-apps-from-a-custom-rom-101986.html and the link to the program is on there or here's the direct link: http://www.solidfiles.com/d/da2dd6335d/
This program compiles the ROM into a .zip if you have TWRP recovery you could do a backup of your previous rom before flashing your current one because you'll have to completely wipe every main partition before flashing new rom to ensure you don't run into problems
Edit: backup system, data, and cache because those are the ones you'll need to wipe also before wiping them just in case I would remove any password that locks your phone because if you try to flash a new rom and fails and your left with the recovery file it'll mess up the password, fingerprints will be forget and backup password will be unchangeable and will require a factory reset to be able to change it.

Hmmmmm ? I think you want to change the boot animation (white Verizon logo red background? ) if so your gonna need to either need to flash a pre-made zip with Flashfire (can't seem to get it to apply from twrp) or your gonna need to manually copy into the appropriate directory (mount system directory r/w copy then change permissions of the file you copied to 644 and reboot) presumably with a root explorer though doable from terminal

Try flashing with flasfire enabling the option mount system r/w and use common paths (probably not necessary but won't hurt) I have had difficulty getting anything other than ROM and gapps to apply from twrp but flashfire seems to work . I'm thinking its due to the fact that flashfire flashes after boot loader and then resets prior to os load.

NOST - Improved Version of OST LA 6.0.4 (v0.6, 02. Mar 2019)

"NOST" - short for "No Service Tool" (or "Nokia Service Tool" but that sounds too official and boring ) is a small hobby project I've been working on in the last couple of days.
It aims to make the service tool for Nokia 8 (and HMD Phones in general) more useable, user-friendly, and straigtforward to use, and after having to test it myself, and also
making a small beta test in the Telegram group for Nokia 8, I feel like posting it here so others can try it out too if they want.
First, to be clear: NOST is not completely my work. It is based on OST LA 6.0.4, which was made by HMD/Foxconn. Unlike the previous OST Patches, NOST does not replace
the executable with a hacked one, but instead wraps it and patches the methods that need patching at runtime. The result is that the changes are completely opensource
and readable by others, while the underlying OST files are not modified at all. I tried to base it on a different (i.e. newer) version of OST, but those are pretty much unpatchable,
at least not with a serious amount of reverse engineering, which brings not only time issues but legal ones as well.
NOST changes a couple of things, compared to the unmodified OST LA:
It removes the need for authentification against HMD/FIH servers (really, shoutout to the one who made the original hack, even though I could not use their code)
Moved the logs folder to the same folder as the application, as opposed to somewhere on the system to make debugging easier
The options for flashing firmware images appear reliable now. (At least for me they only appeared sometimes if not never on the original OST).
Removed one of the options that if it appeared crashed the flashing process ("Check System AP Status")
One user of the Telegram group had issues where OST would crash because it detects an invalid locale setting in Windows. NOST just catches that issue and defaults to english
Removed the "Edit Phone Information" button. It never worked and it's only purpose was to make the "Next" button appear, which works like it should now as well.
NOST refuses to flash your phone if your bootloader isn't unlocked critically. The old OST would just try to flash but never make any progress which confuses inexperienced users.
Perhaps the most important change: NOST allows to flash modified firmware images without the need to extract and modify them by hand.
With the original OST, people who wanted to reflash their phone had to download a firmware bundle, extract and edit it to be able to use it with OST LA 6.0.4, since the newer versions
had unpatchable issues that prevent using them. Repacking the images in a format OST expects wasn't possible either since that enabled some sort of signature algorithm on the modified
images and caused the flashing to fail. NOST solves this problem by allowing the use of a different packaging format. Those binaries still need to be extracted but it is done transparently in
the background without the user having to download any other tools. The formats that can be used in images are .zip and .qlz
.zip Firmwares:
.zip firmware files are simply archives of the (edited) files that would normally be extracted from an .nb0 file. This means, if you extract a .nb0 with the extractor found on XDA, the contents
of the *_unpacked folder it creates should be the contents of your .zip.
.qlz Firmwares:
.qlz files are based on QuickLZ compression, which gives them a small size but also a low decompression time.
The tool to generate them is called exdupe. Generating these images is pretty straigtforward. Assuming you are on windows, download the exdupe
tool from the link above (or take it from the NOST Tools/ folder) and copy it into the folder that contains the unpacked .nb0.
Code:
- exdupe.exe
- <nb0 name>_unpacked/
- <nb0 name>.mlf
- ....
Open a commandline in that folder, and run the following command:
Code:
exdupe.exe <name of the folder to compress> <name of the firmware file>.qlz
You should already see how fast it compresses the firmware folder now. As a reference: Compressing the latest Nokia 8 firmware (about 4GB) takes maybe 30 seconds and yields a 2GB file.
Repacked Firmware Bundles:
I created .qlz images of the May and November firmwares, as well as one of the various Pie Maintainance Releases.
You can find them here: https://tmsp.io/fs/xda/nb1/firmware
I already successfully reverted from December Security Patch to November using NOST, and then updated back using OTA Sideloading without problems.
As always when working with flashing tools, proceed with caution!
How to unlock to critical:

For those who wonder how to unlock into critical state :
Reboot into bootloader download mode and execute those commands :
fastboot flash unlock *unlock .bin*
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
Afterwards you should be able to flash provided .qlz with NOST.

Thanks for the hint, I will take a look. Probably just derped when pulling partitions and renaming the images (might have worked in my November folder by accident).
EDIT: I repulled the images from Pie (I indeed somehow worked in my November folder when making the image), repackaged them and updated the version in the drive folder. You should now be able to flash Pie. Sorry for the mistake.

If you have dependency issues I would suggest to install OST LA 6.0.4 first, so you get its dependencies, until I can make a proper installer for NOST.

Are you talking about the error message that appears when you press the Next button to start flashing?
If yes, your bootloader needs to be unlocked to critical, then the message won't appear.
If you are unsure if your bootloader is unlocked to critical, do "fastboot oem device-info", it will tell you.
If you mean the message that your phone displays when booting with an unlocked bootloader then sorry, I doubt that's possible (I think it is embedded into the bootloader).

Thank you so much for this advice. I wouldn't have ever figured out how to unlock critical on my own and that was the thing that was preventing me from flashing. I tried searching the other OST LA flashing threads as well but this info seemed to have been missing, or then i completely missed it. Thank you so much anyways. If anybody else is trying to figure out why their OST LA or NOST is giving them the se_err_adb_cmd_get_fail_result error, this should help. I just used the unlock.key in place of the *unlock.bin* in your command and it worked.
Can you please upload Oreo December update stock and patched boot image. TIA
Yesterday I noticed that my Pie Image was still not quite useable, since it contained a corrupted system partition.
This seems to have happened because of my Magisk Setup and me only replacing the boot partition image and not uninstalling Magisk completely.
I rebuilt the image, to be fully stock, and also included the latest B07 update that @hikari_calyx uploaded yesterday. You can get it from the drive link in the OP.

Flashable patched TWRP S10 (G973F)
Flashable patched TWRP S10+ (G975F)
Installation procedure for upgrade from BeyondROM v5.4 / v5.5
- Take a full TWRP backup
- Dirty flash or clean flash is ok
Installation procedure for upgrade from BeyondROM less than v5.4
- If you are on stock ROM, follow the attached guide
This ROM version needs minimum ASIG BL and ASIG TWRP/recovery or it won't boot !!!
1. Boot in TWRP and take a full backup before flashing BeyondRom 5.8 ROM zip
2. Copy the ROM zip to your phone (Ext SD preferably)
3. Download Ian’s Multidisabler v1.6 or higher and copy it to your phone
4. Download Ian’s TWRP 3.3.1-11, copy it to your phone and patch it with Magisk Manager or use the patched TWRP from gdrive folder
5. Download the stock FW for your device (S10 or S10+) – Frija is a good tool to use
6. Extract the AP from stock FW, copy it to a temp folder on your internal SD
7. Patch in Magisk Manager the AP
8. Copy the patched AP to your PC and replace the recovery.img inside the AP with the patched TWRP from point 4. Rename the patched TWRP to recovery.img before replacing it into the patched AP
9. Open Odin 3.13.1 or 3.13.3 and fill all slots with: patched AP, BL, CP and HOME_CSC. Uncheck the automatic restart and start flashing.
10. Once flashing completed, long press VOL DOWN + POWER until screen becomes black. IMEDIATELY the screen gets black, press VOL UP + BIXBY + POWER BUTTON to enter to TWRP recovery.
11. Once in TWRP, flash the Multidisabler v1.6 and right after flash BeyondROM v5.8 No need to reboot in between.
12. After flashing the ROM zip, save the aroma log, go back to TWRP root menu and select Reboot --> Recovery
13. Wait for the boot up (5-7 minutes) and setup your ROM to your liking
14. Enjoy the release of BeyondROM
Advises
1. Clean install if you have issues with dirty flash; don't start flashing BR5 without a twrp backup of your existing rom
2. If you have flashing issues: check rom zip MD5 hash
3. If you consider that the moded services are the culprit for your SnapChat ban, use stock services.jar provided in the download folder
4. If you like my work, consider buying me a coffee (PayPal link)

They're the same thing. It's just the way your phone is reporting the connection.

You have to choose it in the aroma. You may well have missed the option and a dirty flash will fix it.

Wow July update. !!!

Installed. So far working fine. Thanks OP.
how can I install TWRP for Galaxy S10+
and kernel?
tried this at least half a dozen times and get stuck at the same spot. I can root and get Magisk and be fine. Then I patch the appropriate TWRP file for my kernel (S10+ twrp-beyond2lte-3.3.1-3.1_ianmacd.img) and then I open the .tar file. I exchange out the recovery.img with the newly patched one. Then I repackage as a tar using B1 free archiver (this may be the issue, but it seems fine). It creates a new AP file. I insert that into Odin (the same version that worked previously) along with the corresponding BL, CP, and CSC files (I have tried both CSC and Home CSC). I boot into download, hook up my phone, hit flash and VOILA...NOTHING!!!! It says, "file analysis" and crashes every time. After a while I got sick of trying so I made an attempt to flash the recovery.img file straight through TWRP app by itself. All that did was cause an infinite boot loop. Can anyone please help me? Here are my rom file names.
AP_G975FXXU1ASE7_CL16003457_QB24029035_REV01_user_low_ship_meta_OS9.tar.md5
BL_G975FXXU1ASE7_CL16003457_QB24029035_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_G975FXXU1ASE5_CP12748354_CL16003457_QB23792291_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_OMC_OXM_G975FOXM1ASE5_CL16003457_QB23792291_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_CSC_OMC_OXM_G975FOXM1ASE5_CL16003457_QB23792291_REV01_user_low_ship.tar
MM Pre-patched AP + TWRP name is "magisk_patched + TWRP.tar."
The TWRP file I downloaded was: twrp-beyond2lte-3.3.1-3.1_ianmacd.img which I of course renamed to recovery.img.
THEN AFTER I GET THIS WORKING, DO I JUST FLASH STRAIGHT THE ZIP FOR THE CUSTOM ROM INSIDE TWRP AND THAT'S IT?
TIA
I just noticed that every time I create the tar file it eliminates the .MD5 extension. Can I just edit the file name to include the .MD5 or do I have to do something special to actually modify the file? Thank you.

I think your archive editor isn't up to scratch, install 7zip from here Download
Try using this recovery, its a working pre magisk patched image G973F_magisk_patched3.3.1-3.1.img
Rename it to recovery.img and replace the one inside your magisk patched version of AP_G975FXXU1ASE7_CL16003457_QB24029035_REV01_user_ low_ship_meta_OS9.tar.md5 using 7zip. Then flash with odin.
Hope this helps

Just delete md5 extension, you don't need that. Odin will flash *.tar file without any problems
Thank you for the reply. There are three things that I'm not sure about. All the versions of 7zip that I have used can't create or edit tar files. The second is my device is 975F not 973. Finally, what are the exact steps to replace the recovery file in 7ZIP? That seems to be where it's having the hangup.
@oggi21 I only added that extension as a last resort. It won't flash the regular tar file once I add the patched AP with TWRP recovery using the B1 archiver. Any help would be appreciated.
Any chance of US CSC's like TMB could be implemented?

The best way is to take any tar file (AP or whatever) and open it in 7zip. Then put yours files in it and delete all others that was inside

[GUIDE] Recovering from a magisk bootloop without twrp

Just to add my experience here, I flashed MARS_SOM magisk rom module which entered a seemingly unrecoverable endless bootloop. This was likely as it conflicted with another magisk module or xposed that I have installed, so not the fault of the rom!
However given we've no twrp yet, the best way (after a LOT of research!) to fix this wasn't easy or obvious. I thought I could just flash stock kernel, uninstall magisk, flash magisk again and uninstall the module. Which unfortunately you can't as they remain in the system files and without root, you can't touch them, though with root, it loads and you get the bootloop - so a vicious endless cycle!
The solution I managed to work out, rather than a full clean wipe was to extract the stock boot from downloaded firmware (using Xperifirm), convert it to an img file using UnSIN, use to unpack, place a certain folder in there (found via the link below), repack and then fastboot flash. This makes magisk operate in core root mode only allowing you to uninstall the module. Once the module is uninstalled, you can simply disable core only mode from the magisk settings.
This saved me from a full wipe!
See here for more details about that unpacking the img, copying a folder etc see here:

This worked for me and so hope it helps someone out too!

With Unsin (on windows at least) you can just drag your file over the cmd without having to mess with command lines

Hi there; I was in the same situation, flashing a corrupted magisk boot image from standard firmware for XQ-AT51, provided by same author for simple rooting Xperia 1 II; my phone was without xposed, it was in clean factory state. the magisk boot image was taken from another thread "[ROOT] Magisk patched Boot Images & Instructions" designated for rooting of Xperia 1 II;
unfortunately is the same author who build your ROM, he delivered also corrupted magisk image.
It was not enter in bootloop if you flash only one image on phone, not both; his instructions are wrong. the correct flashing instruction is below, at end of my comment.
I solved in smilar way like you: using flashtool to obtain XQ-AT51 ftf file: XQ-AT51_58.0.A.3.39_1321-7706_R13A.ftf;
Attention: the name of file depends of region firmware you want to flash and type of phone (single or dual sim); the given names are with title of example.
Then from download folder of flashtool form your disk C:\Users\username\.flashTool\firmwares\Downloads (username is your username on pc); check for file: boot_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin ( applicable for XQ-AT51) and convert the file to .img using unsin; check on xda for unsin, extract unsin archive in exe file and then drag & drop over unsin.exe the file boot_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin; will be generated boot_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.img file.
This name file can be other, is just an example, if you have another phone with firmware for other region, pay attention to this!
This can be flashed then back to phone using adb comands; fastboot flash boot boot_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.img;
The same image can be transfered to phone and used later to generate correct magisk image and root the phone.
Best to you all!

so S001135 was last Offizial ROM from Lenovo , just was waiting to install this one as root.
because every three month Lenovo release OTA-Update for some Update and get worse.
After rooting tablet and lenovo release update, " boot.img" must be change back to install OTA Update from lenovo .
Now it seams this OS will be stable on Lenovo YT_X705F SMART TAB.
But still probs on running differnt APPS on this doomed crap tablet, for this issue i'm looking on LineageOS

If you are on the same firmware S001135 then just use the boot.img I posted above. It should work. Also It would be better to disable system updates. I am creating a seperate post for running GSI of LineageOS and other ROMS.

SO you are not able to root the device?. I am on latest update and I rooted it. You can install the latest firmware from Rescue and Smart assistant. Just flash it onto your device. The downloaded ROM should be saved in C:\ProgramData\RSA\Rom files\YT-X705Fxxxx\.......There you should fine boot.img

Yes use RSA and flash the stock firmware. This stock firmware you flashed should be saved in your system's C:\ProgramData\RSA\Rom Files folder. Just get the required image files from there/
I did not flashed. I just downloaded the firmware. But it seems it is downloaded with some extension(.bmp Or pac which I did not check well).
How can I extract boot img from this?
I renamed to zip and extracted. But could not find any image files.
Can you help how did you do the extraction?
