[ROM][STABLE][TW][N][7.0][AQF7][06.07.17][SM-G955F/FD/N] BatStock-Rom V1.2.0

[Tkkg1994]

This rom is tested and working on SM-G955F/FD/N variants only! Do not try this on other variants without any backup!​

Installing this Rom will void warranty. Installing TWRP will trip knox to 0x1! Secure folder and Samsung Pay will be unusable

Hey folks! I bet you know me from the S7/S7 Edge forums
I did/I'm still doing some work there with the SuperStock-Rom (which is quite similar to this rom here on the S8+ actually), or the probably most known Rom on the S7 edge: SuperMan-Rom. So, what's the aim of this rom? Trying to be as close to stock as possible with some nice modifications as: Always up to date, knox fake, auto updated bootloader/modem. You can check full feature list below!
And why the name "BatStock-Rom"? I will do a custom rom (which has similar features to my SuperMan-Rom) with the name "BatMan-Rom" that's why.

Rom Features V1.1.1:
- Based on latest AQF7
- Latest AQF7stock kernel or BatStock Kernel
- June security patch
- SuperSU V282 SR1, Phh superuser or MagiskSU
- Magisk v13
- Rom is full ODEX for better speed
- Gear VR working
- Aroma installer
- Debloat menu in aroma
- sd card rw
- dm-verity disabled
- force encryption disabled
- Auto model choose in script to flash right files
- Auto update BL/CP for F/FD model aroma
- iOS emojis
- Knox 0x0 faked on running system
- Safetynet pass

Bugs:
- You tell me

HOW-TO Install the rom:
0. Make sure you have ticked OEM Unlock in Developer settings and have a backup of your user apps!
1. Download latest bootloader and modem from here:
Bootloader/Modem
2. Download latest odin
3. Flash BL (bootloader) in BL tab and CP (modem) in CP tab of odin. Then follow the steps on this side until you get a working custom recovery: TWRP for S8+ (to enter download mode, press power+bixby button+volume down)
4. If you are done with bootloader, modem and recovery we can move on, boot into twrp holding power, bixby button and volume up while phone is powered off
5. This will delete all your personal data! In TWRP recovery: Click on wipe, format data and type "yes"
6. Wait until it is finished then click reboot, reboot to recovery
7. Now connect your phone to PC and copy the rom file inside your internal or external sd card
8. Flash the rom and wait until it is finished
9. Reboot your phone and wait till it finished booting
10. After you setup your phone, check if magisk/busybox got installed. If not install them from playstore

Going to install, coming from Nemesis, I can also backup system data and reinstall?

Hi!

Aaaaahhhhh nice to see you here! I used your rom on my S7 Edge and now on the S8+... Awesome!!!

Hmmmm maybe a kernel too?

Do you own a S8 / S8+?

It's like a dirty flash if you do so.
Backup apps you need thr data with titanium

I own a s8+

Kernel may be a little bit more difficult than last time

Congrats Tkkg1994!! Nice to see you here:good:

 

[dekarperboer]

Any clue why there was an auto-reboot at the end of aroma?

 

[fans7012]

Thank you, glad to see you !!!!
Maybe the nucleus immediately

 

[Skumtomten]

Does Samsung pay work?

Awesome to see so much development for the S8Plus so far. Seems like when the S7 Edge was first released, development was very slow to start - it picked up eventually, but at the beginning, there were very few roms to choose from.

Your Entry into the custom roms in these forums just adds more options - glad to see you here and look forward to continued development.

By the way, per the last posted question - Am I wrong or is it not possible to get Samsung Pay to work on rooted rom? (Even with magisk)? I know Android Pay works fine with Magisk Hide - but I never heard of any rom with SAMSUNG PAY working....of course I could be mistaken....

 

[dekarperboer]

Does Samsung pay work?

Vodafone Wallet does...

So perhaps Samsung Pay also does?

Can someone explain how to edit the statusbar?

So sad the n7 has been cancelled

Congrats Tkkg1994!! Nice to see you here:good:

Thank you man

Any clue why there was an auto-reboot at the end of aroma?

Yes. If you read aroma carefully you know why. If you update bootloader it will autoreboot in order to actually install the bootloader

Thank you, glad to see you !!!!
Maybe the nucleus immediately

Thanks man

No idea. Unless I get's available in my country I'm unable to test

That was because I did not have a s7 from the very beginning

Samsung pay was reported working on some s7 users phones. Anyway I could never verify or try myself since it's not even available in my country :/

It's reassuring to see you & other heavyweights here,
Thank you for your time.

Thanks OP for your work and efforts!! You did not mention, so I just want to ask whether native call recording is enabled on this rom?
