i started with v2.3 ... then tried v2.1
And why, after version 2.3, roll back to an older version 2.1?
Error inflating class id.nusatra.views.ChatsListView. The error is related to a class that is not in the Android OS, most likely this class is described in Whatsapp.
I think the easiest way is to install over the Refined Note 8 7.1.1 firmware without deleting the data. Clean only cache and dalwick cache. Check whatsapp. Install mod 2.3. Check whatsapp.

This is what I did ....
📌Clean install 7.1.1 whatsapp was working normally.... Flashed mod v2.3 and wiped dalwick cache n cache, after booting up Whatsapp crashed.
📌I did another clean install 7.1.1 then flashed mod v2.1 ... Whatsapp crashed again.

I did the clean install n tried all the mods inorder to verify if the problem was the mod

Interesting ... Well, there will be time, I will reanimate my Note 4 and see what can be the matter. Which version of WhatsApp?

App Samsung Band Selection in Google Play.
No, it doesn't work. I've used Samsung Band Selection 1.5.0 by Ray W.
It says, "Error: Hidden network settings activity not found on this device."

With adb from platform-tools_r34.0.1-windows.zip, I was able to run adb logcat to obtain the logcat attached in this post.

I'm flashing on top of N910H hardware, and in there, the LTE band 3 is broken and causing Invalid SIM errors. The LTE button sometimes work if the network behind-the-scene automatically select on other than band 3. And that is chaotic, very unreliable, as signal strength is location dependent.

My installation step:
  1. Within twrp-3.7.0_9-0-treltexx recovery, I flashed REFINED_NOTE8_7.1_T2.zip, reboot to system, do initial setup as usual.
  2. Back to recovery again, I flashed Konup_RisingNote4_for_RefinedNote8_7.1.1_ver.2.3.zip, then reboot to system.
  3. Back to recovery again, I flashed Helios_Kernel-V3.1-N910C.H-20200809.img, and then flashed Magisk 26101 d0c93842 app-debug.apk, then reboot to system.
  4. Install the Magisk apk above, open it, do additional setup, reboot again
  5. Install Samsung Band Selection 1.5.0, open it, and tap on the LAUNCH BAND SELECTION button. And it will says, "Error: Hidden network settings activity not found on this device."

The 2263 secret code is not available within Phone INFO 3.8.5 by vndnguyen.
I don't know what to do.
I need to be able to lock LTE to band 1.

Please help me.
Add lock band feature on this mod perhaps?


===============[UPDATE]===============

I've found a clue.

The 2263 secret code for Service Mode RIL is exist on REFINED_N7FE_6.0_PUBLIC.zip and I was able to lock LTE to band 1. And with the help of App Manager 3.1.0 by MuntashirAkon, I was able to locate its source directory, which is /system/priv-app/ModemServiceMode. I'll attach the folder below.

But unfortunately, it's missing on REFINED_NOTE8_7.1_T2.zip, could you please put it back and make sure it works on the upcoming mod updates?


===============[UPDATE]===============

I've tried to copy the folder of ModemServiceMode from REFINED_N7FE_6.0_PUBLIC.zip to installed REFINED_NOTE8_7.1_T2.zip of /system/priv-app/ with proper permission, the app got installed after reboot, but the secret code 2263 is nowhere to be found in Phone INFO app, what did I miss?

@ananjaser1211 @_konup_ How do you make 2263 Service Mode RIL work on REFINED_NOTE8_7.1_T2.zip?

===============[UPDATE]===============

I was able to launch 2263 secret code to lock LTE Band 1 but with another app by the same developer, it is Shortcut Master 1.2.7 by vndnguyen.

So the current workaround at the moment is roughly like this.
  1. Within the latest twrp-treltexx recovery, flash REFINED_NOTE8_7.1_T2.zip, reboot to system, do initial setup as usual.
  2. You could do this without mods if you want it. But if you want mods then back on recovery again, first flash RisingNote4, then reboot. After that, if you don't want to use Footej Camera 2 then flash SamsungCamera7, then reboot. Also, if you don't want to use TouchWiz UI then flash OneUI, then reboot.
  3. Back to recovery again, flash Helios_Kernel-V3.1-N910C.H-20200809.img to boot partition.
  4. Still in recovery, mount the system partition, then open file manager, copy the /system/priv-app/ModemSeviceMode folder that you have extracted from REFINED_N7FE_6.0_PUBLIC.zip to the mounted /system/priv-app/.
  5. Change the permission of the folder with chmod to 0755 and the inside .apk file permission to 0644. You could check the permission from terminal with stat /system/priv-app/ModemSeviceMode and stat /system/priv-app/ModemSeviceMode/ModemServiceMode.apk
  6. Reboot to system
  7. Install latest Magisk apk, open it, it will ask to reboot again after direct install. (I use the debug channel, since it has more detailed log in case of errors),
  8. Install Shortcut Master 1.2.7 by vndnguyen.
  9. Open it > three dots menu > Secret Code Explorer > Look for 2263 > Tap it > Launch 0 > Grant superuser permission > Lock the band as you wish.

===============[UPDATE]===============

It turns out that, you could also use Phone INFO 3.8.5 by vndnguyen. I just need to rebuild the list first. Install it > Open > three bars menu > Secret Codes > three dots menu > Rebuild List > Look for 2263 > Tap it > Launch 0 > Grant superuser permission > Lock the band as you wish.


It took me six days to figure all those out.
This is not the end and still need proper fix.

The problem right now is that, it doesn't persist on reboot. I have to lock the band on each boot. Is there any way to make it persist?

    Health to all ... I don't know English well, so google translation.
    2nd version of the mod RisingNote4 for Refined Note 8 7.1.1. (Exynos). Previously, the first version of the mod was not posted by me in the thread ROM][7.0][TW][Exynos][Stable]Refined Nougat N7FE Port 6.0. But the first versions of the mod were made for the region SER (Russia), so I did not upload the mod here. I will not describe everything that is in fashion. See screenshots, install and you won't be disappointed.
    When installing the mod, the cache and dalwick cache will be cleaned.
    Be sure to backup the system before...

    When I install this mod, it gives an error, I installed your other mods and there was no problem. I like this mod very much, it has dark mode and other very nice features, but when you install it, it gives an error (com.android.phone) and the network is cut off. I searched for a solution for 2 weeks because I did not want to remove it. I couldn't find a solution, it doesn't give an error when I remove the mod. (TWRP 3.5.2_9.0 device n910c region Turkey) I hope that when the refined note 8 test phase is finished, the features in this mode will be included in the rom with the errors removed. i will wait 🙏
    Try to install this test version of the mod. This version for the time being for the test should be installed on a Refined Note 8 7.1.1, the previous version of the mod SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED.

    the major problem i got is that i can't use LTE/4G network, only available in 2G network.
    LTE is working. Maybe the Smart mobile network is turned on and configured to turn on 2G? To check, disable Smart mobile network if it is enabled
    previously i can solve this by using code *#2263# to choose and lock 4G band
    Yes, code *#2263# is no longer supported. If the stock switching of the network type does not work, then you can try this: Settings, then Custom settings, then the Service menu and select 4G_Switcher.
    if you have the source omc/XID, it would be great if you can share it..
    No, I don't have files for xid
