Hello everyone​

Im a newbie with all android stuff but i try my best to geather as much information as i can.
Recently i rooted my note 8 and i deleted all the extra apps and i was having a great performance with more than 3,3 gb of ram most the times and i felt how light the phone was, i changed my fav apps to system to find them there always (for ultra saving mode), but now im facing a problem that i don't know how to change the rom status to official so i appreciate if someone can help me with an easy guide and the second question is it possible to extract the rom from the phone after the modifications to be clean installed through TWRP.

Your device will not go back to official with a mod rom, more over, if you tripped knox, 0x1, there is way to revert it to 0x0, samsung pay is gone forever and knox will no longer work, if your device is snapdragon, then batt will not go beyond 80%, as for your 2nd question, better look for a clean debloated rom, or a script to that effect

I Rooted my previous devices, except for the note 7, I did not want to mess anything, and it is working ok to this very day, but regarding your regret, These days the need for rooting has decreased a lot, as many features have been incorporated in stock firmwares, I only miss VIPER audio

You're right ,but it's all tempting seeing all the roms and the features ,but once rooted and problems start coming from everywhere i figured it out but too late , btw about viper4android , do you know any good configurations for it?

What problems were you having? You can always return to stock firmware of course, if needed. It won't un-trip your Knox counter, etc. but you could af least start 'fresh' if you're having many issues.

There can be issues with Netflix and S-Health on root, but they're fixable. If the issues only happened after debloating though, then maybe you debloated too much. It might take some trial and error to figure out what you need to keep and what can be removed.

there are a few threads on XDA dedicated to Viper, so find them , and you will have all the info you want..
I went through most of them ,i tried v4a , fx , xhifi , but i still have no clue which is best , which settings suits my phone or weather it works with dual speaker mod

Obviously, what ever sounds the best to YOU, is whats best for YOUR phone..
no clue as to whether dual speaker mod works on a note 8. I'm sure some google searches will answer that question
Dual speaker mod works on Note8, but it's benefits is negligible. Whether V4A makes any difference or improvements to it, I don't know. I doubt it will.
