Thanks for clearing my confusion

 

[Conan179]

Has anyone got gpay to work on sb1?

 

[dr.ketan]

Testing S01 (Stable A12) now!

 

[dr.ketan]

Stable A12 is much smooth and fluid.
If no major bug found then S01 (Based on Stable A12) will be sent to test users tomorrow. (It's too late here now) also installation method will be completely different on A12. New installation guide will be available inside rom zip itself.
Goodnight!

I purchased the n986b just so I could install Dr. Ketan's ROM but Tmobile just told me my phone is NOT compatible with their 5G network because it does not support their extended 600mhz band. That's very disappointing. That's what you get for buying international versions in the USA, I guess...

Opening separate thread may helpful sometimes there response may not be perfect. Some experiment / patch may enable it, though not sure and not much aware about Tmobile

STATUS : Testing

I have just installed SO1. I did clean install of ROM and I can confirm everything is buttery smooth. I am still testing other areas, so far so good. Thanks Dr.Keitan for your works

 

[FACAF]

For clean flash is wipe factory reset enough?

 

[dr.ketan]

S01 (based on stable A12) is online now!

Must read Changelog post, specifically about
- SafetyNet fix
- CSC Files
- Complete new Installation method.

N985F device supported but yet not received any report from this device.

[Foglito]

Can someone post if they were successful on Dirty Flash? TiA

 

[adilkral]

Coming from dr ketan R11_pro, i suppose i will have to clean install as it's A12 based?

Coming from dr ketan R11_pro, i suppose i will have to clean install as it's A12 based?

Flashed from R11 to A12 with the Dirty Flash method. Everything works fine, but the instructions followed to the dot. My only problem was that after installing the super.img, TWRP would not mount any drives to install the N986B_N985F*_DrKetanROM_S*.zip. I had to reboot to TWRP to install and then reboot to download to flash the BL files through Odin.

SafetyNet Fix is working amazing, google pay is working fine as well, had to re-enable the Viper4FX in magisk. I can confirm it feels more fluid, however, there is a bit of a lag that I was experiencing before the re-flash. Hoping that it can be mitigated with some tweaks.

Dr. Ketan, thank you for amazing work, as always.

 

[Midnightkey]

i try to install new S01 but in Aroma it says cant mount system?

!!SOLVED!!

 

[dr.ketan]

i try to install new S01 but in Aroma it says cant mount system?

As said above reboot to TWRP and try again
BTW do you have manually mount any partition before flashing super ?

 

[adilkral]

Thank you.
I wonder that lag cause of a dirty flash and clean install would make it smoother.
Guess I'll have to try a clean install, the thought of setting every single app from the scratch bothers me a lot.

 

[Foglito]

I could not live with setting the apps again hence why I did a dirty flash. Lag is gone after wiping the cache multiple times and changing the CPU settings.
