So does ironKernel and this V2.0.0 Final (Oreo) allow dex mode to work with non-samsung hdmi adapters?
I have tried with my HDMI hub and it just mirrors but doesnt go into dex. Is there a setting or something for the kernel im missing?
Yes the patch is included for that, I don't have a HDMI adapter and I assumed the patch will work fine (it's developed from the same author as on nougat)
Again a fantastic rom mate. Thank you. I have just one minor issue. It seems like the "Number of QS row in portrait mode" (expanded) and "Number of QS column in portrait mode" (expanded) uses the same key. I didn't had time to have a look so i don't know is it wrong in the sysui or irc.
Ououou you are right, this is a fault in the RC (not in the UI). Fixed it here:
https://github.com/GrifoDev/IronMan-Control-Free/commit/510e3d62e34363740db74c564620573bd4941822
Has anyone experience app closing each time wanting to open developer options...Flashed Rom twice with same results, followed install procedure as per developer.

Thanks
The first thing I do after flashing the rom is activating the developer mode in order to see if the OEM unlock is there. So I can confirm you, it works fine :good:
Busy box is install because now the reboot system ui is working but still the clear background doesn't work

Uninstall and reinstall busy box still didn't work
What is the issue with clear background? I only focused on the busybox stuff
Just had a update for the phone dialer now when I go to ring a number keeps saying you've dialed a incorrect number anyone help with this was all working ok untill I updated phone dialer app
Uninstall the update, it's as easy as this. It's always critical to update system apps and even samsung sometimes messes them up!

It doesn't work but on Oreo RC is missing option that's why it probably doesn't work. Picture below is for nougat. Screenshot_20180619-065228.jpeg

Yes this is not included anylonger on oreo. Only the features given in the updated RC work, the ones from the old (nougat) one don't work anymore

Following on from my previous messages, I am currently running 2.0.0 oreo. I tried to restore my twrp nandroid backup (nougat 7.1.1), this time I unticked recovery and when rebooting I think it gets stuck. Is there any other steps I need to do? I have no idea about this kind of thing, would really appreciate the help as I kinda need my phone tomorrow heh

I completely wiped everything and started over, I set it to stock splash and boot animation.

Afterwards it's still the same.

quite disappointed, was looking forward for the 2.0 update, was using the Dr.Ketan ROM whilst waiting for the update. Flashed ironman and everything is SUPER slow, any reason as to why it is slow with ironman, after a clean install?

Well apparently if you choose any root method in aroma its slow. I've read to put no for both root options and flash whatever you want after device is setup.

Try to restored another back once it boots up then go back and try to restore that back again, I've notice bootloops but if you can restore one maybe oreo back and then try again

Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk
I can restore my oreo backup fine and it boots and works. Then I tried my nougat backup after that, bootloop. Do I have to downgrade to stock nougat before restoring a nougat backup?

Also what about the EFS partition? Does that need to be unticked as well?

You can't downgrade oreo baseband not sure whats going on with your backup, normally when i get bootloops going back to nougat i just restored Oreo boot up and then try again and it works and boots up Oreo. I'm on Oreo baseband

You can try this TWRP:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=76114476
From the dev info it is completely backwards compatible to nougat.

    IronMan-Rom for the Note 8 is finally here with a dedicated thread :victory:

    Hey guys! Here we are another time :)
    Assuming that you already know me more or less, this rom is based upon latest Samsung Experience 9.0 (Android 8.0). I really love the Samung UI, that's why I work on those roms and not on AOSP such as LineageOS, I know I'm a little fanboy :D
    Coming to the features, it's similar to the ones you'll find on my other roms such as BatMan-Rom (for the S8/S8+ and S7/S7e) or the SuperMan-Rom (for the S7/S7e) or even the EOL (End Of Life) HydraRom (for the glorious N7) :good:

    The Rom itself contains many many custom features via RomControl, I'll list the most important ones below, still you are very welcome to try them all via the RomControl app (choosable in aroma). Now enough talking, wish you much fun flashing the rom and hope you'll enjoy it! :fingers-crossed:


    Nobody is allowed to take stuff from my rom without asking me! Thank you.

    IF YOU FOLLOW MY STEPS BELOW, YOU WILL MAY LOSE YOUR WARRANTY, KNOX WILL DISPLAY 0x1! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGED DEVICE!

    - Xposed V90.2 beta 3 included as aroma choice
    - Latest May Security Patches
    - Many other features, can't list them all, please read changelog to see what changed over the time

    How to install the rom:
    For advanced users:
    0. Make sure to have a backup somewhere on external storage
    1. Make sure to be on most recent TWRP, bootloader and modem
    2. Flash the rom
    3. If you need VoLTE or Wifi Calling, flash your correct carrier CSC
    4. Done :highfive:

    For normal users:
    0. Boot your phone, enable OEM unlock in developer settings
    1. Flash TWRP with Odin, following this thread Note 8 TWRP until it works correctly (to access download mode, press bixby+volume down+power on while phone is turned off)
    2. Make sure you are using most recent bootloader and modem, latest one available here on Android File Host
    3. Now boot into TWRP by pressing bixby+volume up+power on while phone is turned off
    4. If TWRP asks you about allowing system to be edited, swipe yes to confirm
    5. In TWRP, go to wipe, format data (a keyboard will pop up now), type "yes" (this will wipe all your data, make sure to have a backup!)
    6. After this, reboot recovery and start the rom installer
    7. Select your preferences in my aroma installer, make sure to chose NO ROOT for the first rom flash so dalvik-cache can be build properly!
    8. If you selected to auto update bootloader in aroma, the installer will reboot automatically
    9. You can still install my CSC selection if you are customer of a carrier which is not supported by default CSC inside the rom
    10. Wait till the rom boots up
    11. Go though the setup and boot back into twrp. Then flash your preferred root method in the recovery
    12. After setting up, open IronControl Free and let the app apply my default settings!
    13. Enjoy the rom!

    Due to the EOL (End of Life) state of this rom I'm going to close the thread.

    Does this mean it's the end of the support? NO it doesn't!

    There is a generic Telegram Chat if you wish to keep on discussion issues and problems.

    If you look for a forum based solution, the note 8 forums on grifodev will be opened as long as the website exists. If you got an issue, open a thread and I'll help you there! :good:

    In the case you don't know why I'm leaving the development:
    The time I can spend on android gets less and less in the future. I don't have the capacity to develop for so many different devices, hence I will call all roms (not only this one) EOL except the one I use as daily driver (which is currently the S9+). Fun fact: since I have so many devices supported, I did not even got time yet to start working on the S9/S9+ rom lol :D

    Anyway, maybe we see each other again in the Note 9 forum, who knows?

    Was a great time with you, thanks for all the support and motivation you guys gave me! I really appreciate that.

    With love, Luca <3 :victory:

    Happy Holidays!

    Hey guys/girls, dear followers and readers of this chat :)

    The end is near, the end of this year I mean not of my development, I hope I haven't shocked you too much with the first few words :D

    I just wanted to give you some kind of an overview of the development, I will post the same thing on all my rom threads, as it matches all of them.

    My plans are as following:
    Start working again on the rom updates after christmas/new year. I also got some finals around january/february so I can't tell you yet how much time I'll get there to work on android things.

    In general: I'll start to release rom updates with the Januar 2018 security patch base, that's at least the plan :good:

    In the meantime I wish all of you very nice holidays (I really hope you got at least some free days...), nice time with your family, an awesome christmas party (in case you celebrate) and hopefully many nice little presents for you :fingers-crossed:

    Love you all, you're an awesome community! :victory:

    Final release of IronMan-Rom

    IronMan-Rom V2.0.0 Final:
    - Based on latest Oreo release (CRE5)
    - Includes May security patch
    - This rom is ONLY for the Note 8 and not for S7/S7e/S8/S8+ devices!
    - Updated all included bootloader and modems for F/FD/N models
    - Reworked the rom from scratch
    - Includes latest stock kernel and IronKernel
    - Updated GBWhatsApp and GBInstagram to most recent versions
    - Updated youtube vanced (to play youtube in background)
    - Updated SMusic app thanks to @thereassaad
    - Updated adaway and adblocker files
    - Updated magisk to V16.4
    - Updated xposed to 90.2 beta 3
    - Updated busybox to 1.28.4
    - Updated included twrp to my latest selfmade built
    - Updated webview so we don't have to use google chrome for it
    - Updated modded camera by zeroprobe to support oreo
    - Updated dual speaker mod to support oreo
    - Added a new custom ironman bootanimation thanks to Thibou (chose in aroma)
    - Added a new splash ironman image thanks to myellow and Karan_Tamboli (can also be chosen in aroma)
    - Updated the romcontrol with some new mods and some mods removed. It has now the exact same features as BatMan
    -> this means you can use the BatControl Pro app too!
    - Include csc features (applock, airmessage and many more), this rom ships with decrypted cscs!
    - Maybe something else, I have possibly already forgot it :D

    The issue with oreo and full deodexed roms:
    I don't know if you heard about that problem but oreo roms have problems with building dalvik-cache when the rom is fully deodexed. Hence the rom lags and is damn slow all over the place unless you use odex framework. I have patched the sepolicy for this purpose and it works fine BUT (and that's the main problem):
    Magisk does replace this patched sepolicy. What does this mean for you as user?
    My suggestion is to flash the rom without any root method installed. Then boot your device one time and set up your phone. In this first boot, the dalvik-cache could be built with this patched sepolicy file in the kernel.
    When you are finished, go back to TWRP, simply flash magisk root and you are good to go. Now slowdowns, nothing.
    I'm sure many people won't follow my advice here and face the laggy system. Please help them with this answer here, thank you dear readers :good:

    What else is important to know:
    This rom update will be the last one from my side. I don't know if someone else will continue the project or not, this isn't up to me. Why I will stop you may ask yourself now.
    Well, I have supported several devices over the last few years and one thing was always the same back then: I had time. A lot of time. This has changed now mainly over the last year (I mean, when did any update from my side took so long like this one? Exactly, never ^^). I can't spend much time anymore on android due to the university and my job. If I could manage it somehow I loved to keep on developing... :(

    I will let this thread open for some days/weeks and then close it. Of course you are always very welcome to post on www.grifodev.ch (nothing will be closed there).

    As mentioned above, the BatControl Pro is now fully compatible with this rom as well. Sadly our designer has a similar fat as me and was never able to finish his design with the IronControl Pro... hence I couldn't release it. If you still want to support / have the pro app get it from here. Features are exactly the same as in the free app, I suggest you to check out the app on the store and decide for yourself if you need it or not :) :fingers-crossed:
