@dr.ketan Is there any solution for connecting a smartwatch with your ROM. I cannot connect the S3 Frontier nor the Watch 3. with both it does tuck at the last point in coupling window. I tries everything you can read about, but no trick worked so far. Maybe you got a solution. I am on S05.

Since VC9 firmware this is issue. Watch 4 working, issue with older. My watch 3 is connected to my primary device N20 and no time to factory reset and look into it. No any plan anytime soon too

There is nothing like back to ZTO because even after flashing BVO, you still will be on ZTO only. You can confirm from settings - about phone - software info - service provider software version

You are right. I updated my firmware with another country file, unlocked BL, rooted, instaleld your ROM and everything is working fine!
I appreciate having 3minit battery as part of the rom, it was a pain to install it, and I love the app.

The only thing that isn't working is Viper4Android (the main reason why I rooted!). It keeps asking to install drivers. I already tried making it install twice, tried other apps and modules (Audio library, etc.) and tried changing the .sh file as some XDA threads said. Nothing worked. Everytime I open V4A it says drivers are not installed and tries to do.

Do you have some step-by-step to make it work in S908E? If you don't, do you plan to make it work soon? V4A is the main reason several people root..

Thanks for you guidance!

As of Now Viper work only on S22 Exynos, May be Viper deveopers needs to update app for S22 SD.
Ow.. Those are terrible news. The main reason I rooted was V4A.. Is this an old problem? Did S21 snapdragon line had it already? Did they fixed for S21?

Also, are you able to fix that or it's something Viper team should work? If there is anyway I can help (testing, probably), please tell me.

I too root for the main purpose of viper4android however I've started to use wavelet which is made by the same developer. Both work and sound great on my Tab S8U and S22U. I have the SD S22U

Good morning Dr Ketan,
I recently bought his rom and also the Tweaks Pro version and I am very satisfied. I'm using a Samsung Note 20 Ultra 5G.
I would like to know if the rom could be implemented in the future with the possibility of recording Voip calls.
I use the Boaldbeast Voip recorder app which works quite well. It does not start automatically but the recordings are good.
The problem I encountered after installing Android 11 is the delay in activating up to almost twenty seconds. I am attaching the log file hoping you can give me some suggestions.
the rom also shows this message at startup: developer warning for package "com.ketan.tweaksn20pro" failed to post notification on channel "quick" See log for more details.
I will also send the log file as soon as I understand how to do it.
I am notified of updates for the rom and for the Tweaks pro app. Nothing happens when I click on the notification icon.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help you will want to give me.
Best regards.

Paul

Wavelet is very bad, imo. Poweramp equalizer is better, but doesn't compare to V4A. Do you get the same problem than i (drivers installation loop)?

I will keep trying to mske V4A to work. If I succeed I'll post here. I really want that app to work.

    WARNING

    Before you root your device you must be aware that

    • This will void warranty.
    • As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help.
    • There are many features stop working when you unlock bootloader other than S pay/Pass like Samsung Health, Secure Folder, Galaxy Watch pairing issue, Issue connecting old gear watch (S3 or earlier), Google Pay etc but ROM is patched for all these mentioned features. Still you may trouble using some bank apps and these may fixed by adding these apps to Magisk Hide
    • There may be some knox features there which you may not able to use but I can't list those as I never used. Just Google It
    • Patched featurs are working today when writing this, No idea if it may stop working next moment/tomorrow or later
    • Also to note, once you root, you can't go back to "pre-rooted" state completely. It is one way!
    • OTA won't work once you root device.
    • ROOT with caution.
    • You can unroot & Relock bootloader after flashing stock firmware, but still your warranty flag remain 0x1 and most of countries it still voids warranty. Also after unrooting & relocking bootloader, some knox features never work again.
    ROM Tool permission : Files & media - To save and read files, Calendar - Tool needs some time monitoring to avoid using RT immediately after reboot. Special access for accessibility service - Since Android 12 it requires for QS panel custom Toggl e.g. Reboot to recovery

    Regarding full ROM (for S908B/E)

    What I am planning is to make Odin flashable ROM from next version. Now a days on newer device you needs PC & Odin to flash bootloader so making ROM with TWRP flashable zip still you needs PC, Instead if I make Odin flashable ROM then it will be much easier. Even you no more needed to have same firmware installed.
    Installation will be swift like
    • Flash provided files with Odin with respective slot
    • Wipe/Format will be optional if you are already on my ROM. (must in case you are on stock/encrypted data)
    What you think?

    Proposed ROM development now onwards :

    Looking to poll results, it seems most users wants Full system-rw ROM including Mods. So finally found a way so users with any choices won't get disappointed.

    • To make a Full ROM + Mods (No Magisk module requires). This will only for S908B & S908E - This will be for users with choice 1
    • Above said ROM will have option in ROM Tool to remove customization, with this you can remove all customization and retain with pure stock experience. Before removing customization, still you can apply essential fix so it will keep all important systemless fix like SafetyNet/GPay etc. - This will be for users with choice 2
    • Magisk Model development will remain continue for all other variants including S908B/E

    I am Testing Full ROM including mods now on S908E, soon it will be public.
    Thank you for trust & support for ROM!

    PS : Full ROM is under testing now!
