Hi Guys,
What is the way to edit/add CSC feature on S9?
Seems like somewhere Samsung introduced new way of doing it and files are encrypted.
Did some reading here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/how-to/guide-omc-manipulation-tips-tricks-t3776633
But there must be a simple way of adding some custom CSC codes?
I'm on stock BRGA version and looking to add Call Recording + maybe some other features too.
Already have Magisk and Xposed if required and TWRP in the back.
Please hint me in what to do. Seems like ROM chiefs have some way and I'm just blind that didn't find it yet.
Thanks!
I'm getting lost in a lot of the information in here.
I'm fed up with lousy performance and charging my phone 2-3 times per day. I've read a few posts online about how the Exynos version is to blame (lucky me, that's the one I have), and that there are some minor tweaks I can do to both improve the performance and battery life.
However, I am dependent on VoLTE and being able to mask root access (actually, I don't really need root access, I just want to change the CPU settings, which I assume requires root access).
From what I've read none of the AOSP ROMs supports VoLTE, and the Lineage crew says it's impossible for them to support it, while other ROMs says that "everything works" which I would think includes VoLTE.
So to the point. I need to keep VoLTE, and I need to be able to mask root. Is it possible to retain those while:
1) Being able to mod CPU settings
2) Being able to uninstall Samsung (cr)apps
3) Getting a clean android experience without any Samsung customization
Device: SM-G960F
Many thanks.
Im on Soliders ROM, very very good ROM.
I have WiFi calling working, but I have to contact my provider and ask for the config file to be OTA sent to me (only if I full wipe on setup)
I have VoLTE, but it doenst work or activate. Not sure its every worked.

Awesome, but now I have a new question. What does bri4 mean? I see BRI1, BRI3 and BRI4 for some ROMs, does that have something to do with which version of the device I have?
BRI4, its just the latest release basically.
Can check in settings>about>software to see your version and work from there

they better not disable the cameras when unlocking the bootloader like the Samsung Galaxy Fold 3

About bloatwares there are many threads on XDA and on the internet explaining how to remove Google and Samsung bloatwares with adb command with many lists of apps you can remove or disable by yourself.
For rooting and at present time there is only one way to do it and it's all explained in my tutorial you can find here :

forum.xda-developers.com
You can find the latest magisk-v24.0.apk in post #174 so skip the one I posted in OP...
For optimization, as this is a new phone and as no one can propose the kind of optimizations you expect and as rooting is "experimental", you have to do optimizations by yourself... ^^
By "experimental root" I meant root is actually working fine, BUT Magisk is going on a new way as Magisk Hide is missing or not working as it should !!!
I did explain all this in my tutorial.
There is no TWRP available yet for this phone and thus no custom ROM either... ^^

Why dont you try an GSI of android 12 that might work out but then no root or optimizations
Arobase40 said:
This has been fix with my tutorial and @beanbean50 confirms he rooted his Galaxy Fold 3 with his camera working.
I have seen this term many times but still don't understand the meaning of GSI... ^^
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
GSI means Generic System Image. These kind of ROMs work on any device running android 8.0 or higher and support A-Only or A/B partitions.
Advantages
Faster Updates
No TWRP Needed (Only Fastboot Needed or Odin in Samsung Phones)
Disadvantages
Only 95% of the gsi may work
There might be a lot of bugs and issues

no dependancies twrp to custom rom (one can be created without other and vice versa) , indeed are several recovery (lineage,pitch black, orage fox) for custom rom , theoretically could be installed by odin. telephone is not so new (august 2021), has chipset 778 (febraury 2021) . Samsung UI , it's heavy and with some bugs or limitataion (randomly camera not working with bl unlocked, call reacording not enabled if you dont' flash uae rom). You explain so many , many works that custom rom can resolve with snap. That's why good Custom rom always better than other 10000 tiny, boring and time spendig jobs

NOPE !!!
You thought I didn't test Zygist before posting the different variants of Magisk till Magisk v24 ??? lol
Magisks post v23 were mostly written for the Oppo, Xiaomi and then Nexus/Pixel devices, but Samsung Galaxy devices were not taking into account in the devs's priority if not at all !
I follow most of the discussions in the development of the Magisk forks and no one even owns a Samsung devices or even care about Samsung.
There was a bug in Magisk v23 that causes bootloop in most newer Android devices (a fstab story) and instead of simply patching Magisk, they decided to take Magisk all apart with a fork for Oppo, another one for Xiaomi and then one for the Nexus/Pixel all with a different philosophy... Instead of Magisk Hide which was removed, then created new concepts of "Deny List" and/or "White list" but which work differently from the previous Magisk Hide !!!
Zygist doesn't work, or at least not with the Samsung Galaxy !!!
- First, it disables riru framework and EdXposed/LSposed modules and thus all modules based on them won't work anymore such as XprivacyLua, Firefds Kit and some others... Only AfWall++ continues working...
- Then, once rooted with magisk with Zygist on, I couldn't get any protected Samsung apps working such as Secure Folder, Samsung Health is working only partly as I can run it once but I can't access to it anymore unless I reboot the phone. Samsung Health is working in the background as I can see its notification and the number of steps I walked during the day (...), but once again I can't access to the inner of the apps and I don't have access to the health parameters... Samsung Pay also won't work and others I don't use...
ATM I'm still fighting with Android studio to understand how I can build my own Magisk app for the Samsung Galaxy devices...

Arobase40 said:
I don't know your real english level but you didn't follow all the discussions at all as this is exactly what I said there is no dependencies between TWRP and custom ROM !!! SIC
But you need to build TWRP with the source code from the Galaxy A52S 5G specifically as TWRP for the A52 5G won't work on our device !!! I also tried different TWRP from other brands/models with the same SOC but again they do NOT work !
Then you are confusing between so many things which are not related with TWRP or custom rom such as "camera not working with bl unlocked", call recording and so on...
Many bla bla bla, but what can you do for the community ??? ^^ SIC
Are you able to build a TWRP for the A52S 5G or can you build a custom rom for the same device ???
So STOP TALKING (and criticizing) and DO SOMETHING if you can !!!

i dont'know if your are a troll (your problem). Probably due to your english level comprehension you lost several thread passages, that before your intervention was going smoothly. No one has been criticized and no one say it's easy to build something. Luckily your are not moderator and this forum it's free also for flamer just like you. keep cam and take a chamomile

RayOS S21FE Port for Samsung Galaxy A52s 5GHere we go again. I can't live without S21FE system, so now I ported it to my newest device, the Galaxy A52s 5G. It was a little bit more tricky with limited options when it comes to recovery, but it's now available. Since TWRP isn't released yet, I packaged it together to flash with Odin. I've tested it myself and it works for me, but as everything in XDA in uncertain, flash at your own risk.
Code:
* Warning, your warranty is now void.
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about flashing this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. HARD!
Supported variants!

Sources!I decided to show my work so to speak on GitHub. You can see the list of all the apps I removed and all the lines that were added to camera and floating features. Feel free to take a look and make pull requests if you want me to add something on potential future releases.
https://github.com/ShaDisNX255/RayOS-S21FE-Port
Kernel source: Samsung Open Source
Bugs!
Remaster picture breaks if you update system apps with Galaxy Store. I still don't know the exact app update that breaks this (it's not Gallery) but you have been warned.
SSRM Warning on every reboot. You can bypass this by flashing the SSRM Warning Removal magisk module in this thread. Will hopefully add this fix natively on future updates
You tell me
Changelog!
18/July/2022: Release based on June S21 FE Firmware (G990U1UEU3CVF2)
Links!
RayOS S21FE for Galaxy A52s 5G
Odin 3.14.1 (Give thanks in the original post)
Instructions!
This will wipe your phone, including media. So backup any media you may have on the phone.
Extract all the files using 7-Zip
Make sure you've correctly unlocked your bootloader
Reboot phone into download mode
Place each AP, BL, CP and CSC in their respective locations
Flash
Odin will reboot your phone once complete
Done
Recover camera!Samsung software locked the camera on the a52s for some reason. It's easy to bypass, just change the props to anything else [A52 4G should work, but you can chose literally anything other than A52s to make it work]
For those who are less knowledgeable on how to do it, here's a quick guide:
Install the Magisk app from the official GitHub releases (The fw is already Magisk patched, so just installing the app normally should give you root access)
Download the Magisk Props Config Magisk module from their thread (make sure you give them a like on the thread)
Install a terminal emulator (Termux recommended from Playstore)
Install the Magisk Props Config module using Magisk
Reboot
Open your terminal emulator and type su to give it root permission
Type props and it should take you to the props menu
Select Edit device fingerprint (option 1)
Select Pick a certified fingerprint (option f)
Select Samsung (option 26) and select any model you want (It can be Android 11 or 12, doesn't matter)
After selecting a model, it should ask you to reboot
After reboot, your camera should work. If it doesn't work, force stop it and delete any data it may have already saved and then try again.

FAQQ: Will this work on A52 4G or A52 5G?
A: No, I included A52s 5G specific vendor with hw libs. This will only work on A52s 5G. There is already an A52 4G version here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...s21fe-port-for-galaxy-a52-sm-a525g-f.4454855/
Q: Will this work on A73?
A: I have no clue. I've been told HW is very similar with a few lib exceptions but I honestly have no interest on supporting this device. Anyone else is free to try and flash and fix it for A73, you've got my support.
Q: How can I report a bug?
A: Try and be as detailed as possible on how you encountered the bug. If you can include a logcat then even better. The more information provided the more likely it is to get the bug fixed.
Enjoy guys!
Sorry if you get bombarded with bloat at initial set-up. I deleted the apps but they still show up. The good thing is that 90% of them are uninstall-able by long pressing and installing them from home
Hope I can get them fully removed on future updates.
Yoooo a Custom ROM pooog! OneUI based, but at least something! Not gonna flash right now, I'm on vacation and don't have access to Odin, but maybe later.
HAHA second, going to give this a try, keep you informed....
Dohh thanks man i will try it tomorrow
I already tested the og version of this and it was really good. Fantastic work. Follow instructions and try it you'll like it! Dex ftw!
I have this installed, gone through most of my prefered setup steps. Only thing I've noticed so far is connection to pages and setups requiring connections is extremely slow. Google timed out. XDA timed out. Whatsapp was slow with verification code and accessing drive backup. Otherwise all else is going ok so far.

No need to monthly. It's already half a year as I'm updating my Note 20 Ultra to A12 of Ketans rom xD
But sometimes, once a while, updates could happen
"Recover camera!" - it should happen on all devices, or not?
It's just that when I launched Camera right after first boot and setup it gave me fail message, but since 2nd launch of the app it works fine and I'm not sure if I still should follow this procedure or I'm just one of the lucky ones that my camera is nor broken?

Hard to tell since we don't know the exact culprit of losing the camera. If camera works for you then you can skip this. But, if you want to pass safetynet this will be necessary since there is a fingerprint miss-match between system and vendor.
I am really interested in using my P6P which is sitting for months in my drawer, because I am unable to use VoLTE/VoWIFI in my country (Slovakia). This is crucial to me and to my work. I don't care that much about 5G as coverage is big enough.
I have been reading some articles and threads, but I don't have the crucial questions answered, so I will give it a try here:
1. Do I need to root device to enable the two options I am asking in first place?
2. If I will root it, will I be able to use the Company Portal, Gpay and banking apps?
3. Can I update new versions of Android when my phone is rooted? I assume it would have to be done via sideload not via OTA.
4. Can anyone point me to proper thread which will lead me through the process in achieving all this successfuly?
Thank you.
There's a custom with custom avb key (this means you can relock bootloader after Rom install) that has VoLTE tweak enabled for unsupported country within the Rom. 5G is also tweaked to be enabled.
And after that, future update is via sideloading in recovery mode, no need to re-unlock bootloader
Go check out the Rom in telegram here https://t.me/hentaiOSRaviole
That seems like custom ROM - I am not really interested in that. I prefer it as stock as possible.
I only found this.But it's only for Chinese ISP(and it works fine for me) . It's a magisk module which modify mbn_sw.txt to enable VoLTE for Chinese Operators .
GitHub - CHN-MuXin/MagiskModuleEnableChinaForVoTELtoPIxel: This module will modify mbn_sw.txt to enable VoLTE for Chinese Operators . Theoretical support for all Pixel models and Android versions

Yup. Custom ROM but no additional features like other custom ROM. Their aim is just to improve the stock ROM.
