Memo screen of, Air command, SS notes, Dual App, Secure Folder work well

Thank you, iris scanner is needing fixed if you wish to use android 10 I suggest using Anan's android 10 rom for s7/S7E/NFE which can be found here

https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development/rom-floydq-v1-0-t4085667/amp/

It is a lot of hard work to port android 10 and @ananjaser1211 put a lot into this project, I have only managed to port Pie to S7/S7E/NFE thanks to @Kill-Switch who gave me the method with some help from @ananjaser1211
and @corsicanu
I will not be able to port android 10 in the near future unfortunately

Anan is currently working on adding Spen to the Floyd rom and is being tested in testing group. It will maybe be available on V4.0

Just downloaded N8 base with August security patch, will be rebasing and publish in the next few days. Will try looking into the iris detection problem, but since there are so few NFE users it might be hard to pin down without logs, but I'll try my best

i for one would love to run your rom, i have two NFE's that i still use. Though i have been having some issues regarding root, i have stopped using one NFE becasue of Pie. It has made the phone unusable and i cant even downgrade because of bootloader lockouts, so a rom that is great in performance and has all the features for a note phone, you have my donations and kudos :):):)

Thank you for the encouragement, I will try and sort the iris issues. Are you trying to root the stock pie rom on the NFE? As far as I know the kernel needs the dm-verity etc removed. You would be better off using a custom rom with custom kernel and root because now you have tried to install twrp the knox has been tripped, most custom roms have a work around to get secure folder etc working again (but not Samsung pay).
I can't remember but I think I added a donation link when I first made my xda profile years ago, DON'T send donations as I do not accept them, I do this as a hobby and to further my knowledge in android development and don't want any donations as I have all the tools etc I need, a beat up old Optiplex 760 PC, a USB cable and a SM-G935F (S7 Edge)

also if you know an Oreo rom for the S7Edge that can work on the NFE, please let me know. I hate using Pie on this anyways. I looked around the forum but can't understand what to do, relatively new to this.

The binary for NFE pie stock will be higher than the binary for NFE oreo stock so when you flash in Odin it will fail at s.bin on binary rev.

Did you debloat the payment services from stock rom?

You could just download the latest stock NFE and flash it via Odin to get around that I think

Also there is an xda thread on how to fix this here:

No I didn't debloat it from stock... That's because after rooting, I can't boot into system for God knows what reason. So after using Odin again to flash stock,then root I just flash the ROM, it boots and then I'm stuck on the payment services screen.

You are suggesting I remove payment services or disable it and then try?

I made a zip from the APK and flashed it through TWRP after flashing the ROM but no cake. It still locks me out. This phone is cursed or something. Can't get rid of pie

If you updated bootloader you are stuck on Pie

Thanks for the reminder... I know I'm stuck on Pie but I wanted a custom solution to make the phone usable. Which is why I tried to root it but after doing all that, I'm stuck on the screen saying 'your phone is locked because SAMSUNG pay was removed'

Try altering the file and replacing it manually and not using a zip, maybe the zip isn't giving the correct permissions or the path is wrong. If not flash stock via odin

Altering a file? I would have done that if I had time because the instant I boot into the room I am locked out of it. I can just turn it off or boot into recovery.

You said something about replacing it manually, how can i do that through twrp?

Oh I have flashed stock now. At least the phone is running. I don't know what to do because Samsung pay isn't installed on my phone. It's the dual sim version.

When you flashed stock rom the Samsung pay apps will be in the rom by default, the other way that I left the link for explains how to edit the file and replace it in twrp file manager

i have no issues with flashing the stock rom, it is working fine. But when i try installing a custom rom, this happens. Do i have to do something in the stock rom regarding these apps to make sure they don't bother when installing a custom rom???

also, the link you shared claims someone installed those apps using lucky patcher, which means the dude was booted inside the rom, as soon as the system boots, it locks me out. the only thing i can do is boot into recovery.
