Sound boost? Curious. What does that do exactly?

Also, disabling signature check means we can install apks with different signatures as updates, correct?

Thanks for the rom btw

 

[galaxys]

Sweet! Kudos

First Note9 Pie Custom Stock released on XDA, with RC. Nice work!! Downloading...

 

[damir831]

Coming from RomAur 8.1. System gets stuck for a while on the Samsung logo after the install. Then it appears to load "299 apps" but the screen just turns dark. Restarting after 20 mintutes of waiting and same results. Tried to re-install again, and still the same issue.

Followed directions below


2 - Installed TWRP
3 - Copy rom to sdcard
4 - Enter to recovery
5 - Make a backup
6 - Wipe before installing the ROM on TWRP(DALVIK-CACHE,SYSTEM,CACHE,DATA)
7 - Install Rom
8 - Reboot
9 - Enjoy

Well you skipped step 1!!

1 - Installed Stock ( TESTED ONLY FROM N960FXXS2ARK2 FW)

this means you need to have flashed N960FXXS2ARK2 firmware base.

i suspect that flashing only BL and CP of that FW should also be enought.

Thanks, I was doing that step now. I wanted to make everyone aware of this as it seems it was only tested from N960FXXS2ARK2 and maybe others were looking into upgrading straight from 8.1

well its part of the install instructions so..lol no need to prove that it dont work if you don't follow step 1.

but id be interested that you only flash booloader and modem of that build and see if it's enough.

so unzip:

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603846872

and just flash bl and cp with odin.

I wasn't trying to prove anything, I wanted to test coming from 8.1. I wasn't blaming anyone and there's not a disclaimer not to do it, just that it wasn't tested.

I already flashed BL and CP and just flashed the ROM again. It's doing it's thing, and I'll provide an update after it's done.

maybe you weren't made aware but all beta pie builds whether custom or stock require that base to be flashed. its pretty common knowledge, thus why i pointed out the futility of just dirty flashing the new rom. anyways... what's done is done .

 

[damir831]

Actually no, I wasn't aware. I'm a noob.

CL/BL doesn't appear to have worked. I will flash the full stock ROM now and then try again.

Flashed N960FXXS2ARK2 fully and tried reflashing this ROM, but having the same issues. Re-downloading just to make sure it's not related to a corrupt download...

 

[bober10113]

after flashing base did you:

flash twrp
booted to twrp and formatted data
rebooted again and wipe everything like OP suggested

then flash rom?

Correct. Lost TWRP after flashing N960FXXS2ARK2 and had to flash it again, then followed those same steps.

Might not of helped that guy but certainly helped me.. Thank you

Mine is doing the same. I came from DevBase Oreo and wiped fully (system, caches and data) however it will not boot.
Only says android is starting with a amount of apps and then black screen and reboots to recovery.

Wierd thing is, it already has ARK2 latest BL and CP. And the entire ROM is based on ARK2. So i doubt that's part of the problem honestly.

I will check this.

I fully Odin flashed ARK2 and wiped everything, reflashed TWRP and installed RomAur 3.0. I'll see if that boots

Thank You! I am glad I wasn't going crazy. I tried flashing and re-flashing three times but would never boot up. Went back to 8.1 without any issues. I do not want to get too comfortable with 8.1 again as I know I'll be switching to this as soon as it's working for me
