CM7 Lockscreen Mods

Alright. Now that Cyanogenmod has fixed the android.git.kernel.org sync errors, I have continued my CM7 Development (lockscreen stuff for now).
There are currently four new features:
1) Changeable pattern lockscreen size (3x3 - 5x5).
2) Visible dot toggle, for pattern unlock screen.
3) Custom lockscreen message (on normal and keyguard ones).
4) Carrier name change. NOT MINE anymore. Thanks Frederic Van Assche
After I get these problems fixed and setting for all of the features, I will release the mods here, and hopefully into official CM7.
Now for some pictures. See attached (untill i upload). Note: all images are at 180 lcd density (sortof needed for 5x5)

Development Section
Im currently really busy with school, so most of the work will be done on the weekends.
Current development status, and todo list.
1) The lockscreen size mod works fine. Few small code cleanup things and stuff needed.
2) The visible dot toggle has a setting and works perfect. The checkbox sometimes doesn't display right so you may have to click it twice to turn it on/off (not sure whats wrong, low priority).
3) Custom lockscreen message works great. Sometimes you have to enable+disable it for it to update (work on auto do/fix). And I haven't added it to the PIN lock and stuff (have to check). In the end I would like the enable/disable and message to be on a different settings screen (like on Honeycomb).
4) And the carrier name thing is now obsolete. Thanks to the patch by Frederic Van Assche, shown to me by one_love_420.
Ohh. And if any of you have any suggestions on things to add or change, i'm happy to listen and try.
Beta Testing.
Current Bugs
Code:
1. Choose pattern size, press back, doesn't revert size (ex: unlock problem from 5x5->3x3)
2. Change lock pattern size. Can't unlock from the actual lockscreen, in settings its fine. (IMPORTANT!)
Fixed by rebooting. Changing to same size is fine
Notes
These builds are buggy. Use at your own risk.
If you cannot unlock your phone, you can fail 5 times and then log in with your google account.

For a better way to do the custom carrier text and to have it in the settings as an option check this over at the gerrit. I have used since he posted it for review and it works great.

Thanks man.
I'm assuming I would run the patch command (git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.com/p/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base refs/changes/14/7314/2 && git format-patch -1 --stdout FETCH_HEAD)
Edit: that seemed to do nothing but output the changes.
I did the checkout one ("git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.com/p/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base refs/changes/14/7314/2 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD") and now it says
Code:
~/android/system/packages/apps/CMParts$ git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.com/p/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_CMParts refs/changes/13/7313/3 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD
From http://review.cyanogenmod.com/p/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_CMParts
* branch refs/changes/13/7313/3 -> FETCH_HEAD
Note: checking out 'FETCH_HEAD'.
You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
git checkout -b new_branch_name
HEAD is now at 5ed9b01... Custom carrier label (2/2)
Sorry, i'm still pretty new at git. What do I do now?

I'm new to the git and I do it probably the more difficult way but it gets the job done. What I do is download each change one by one, use "meld" to compare my java/xml files and add the new edits in. Like I said the more difficult way to do it.

1) For the carrier name replacement I edited
Code:
String plmn = "<WHATEVER>"; //ss.getOperatorAlphaLong();
(line 587) in GsmServiceStateTracker.java. I would like to find a way to add this as a setting to CMParts but haven't looked around enough to figure out how yet. If any of you could hint me in the right way or something that would make my life easier.

sorry, it wasnt that clear first time i read it

If you want a tester btw, you know where to find me

Thanks dude. I was out of town this weekend but started work on getting the pattern size setting more formal and correct.
However my Ubuntu vm decided to not boot.
Edit: fixed it with commands in slax, then in some terminal on ubuntu reboot.
However everything seems to be only. And I can't change the folders permissions due to read only filesystem. Any ideas?
e2fsck /dev/sda2 from root recovery seems to say it was fixed. but continues to not boot, and allowing me to run that command again and again.
If this doesn't get fixed soon. I think I'm gone to attempt to get my edited files from the read only (but bootable) snapshot, and add them back into the last working snapshot.

Try that

I ended up getting my read only changes and putting them on my actual computer,
then re doing my VM and melding my changes back in.
I got a backup, and a build made.
However settings crashes (doesn't look like my edits). I will attempt to fix it. Worst comes to worse go back to the good build and merge piece by piece.
Edit: The last two weeks and weekends have been super busy, barely able to turn on my PC. Anyways I got a 4 day weekend coming up, I should hopefully have everything worked out then.

any progress yet?

He's got most of the work done, he just needs to get it all merged and get it all up on github. He got distracted by a fun new build system for our kernel.

Edit: Disregard the old information. I now have some freetime over this weekend, the last two weeks have been crazy busy. I am slowly putting my tweaks into the latest nightly and making sure everything is working (vm redo). Anyways the newest build works! - You go to settings -> location and security -> Change Screen Lock -> Confirm saved pattern -> Choose unlock type (pattern) -> Choose pattern size (3-5) -> Draw new pattern (x2).
Where in the settings should the custom lockscreen message be? CMParts -> Lockscreen -> Widget Options -> Custom Message, or Security -> Owner Info (like honeycomb), or somewhere else?

i prefer
CMParts -> Lockscreen -> Widget Options -> Custom Message

what i like best about this project is
a) i`ve always wanted a 5*5 unlock pattern
b) you`re working this into the Cyanogenmod Project

Thanks.
Heres a little development update. Im working on getting the 5x5 lockscreen perfect before adding back in the lockscreen message and stuff. The actual 5x5 works fine, all my problems come from the dynamically changing size. Im trying to fix these two important bugs I have found. Hopefully I can get it solved, if not I might upload my work and see if you guys can help me out
Code:
#BUGS#
1. Choose pattern size, press back, doesn't revert size (ex: unlock problem from 5x5->3x3)
2. Change lock pattern size. Can't unlock from the actual lockscreen, in settings its fine. (IMPORTANT!)
Fixed by rebooting. Changing to same size is fine
If your willing to put up with these bugs check the OP.

Is there anyway to add this on to a current build of cyanogen nightly rather than flashing an older one?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

Ummmmm. I edited frameworks/base and packages/apps/Settings
So So replace the Settings.apk and framework folder or something.

This is something,I don't mind testing out. hopefully it'll work on cm7.1

Troubleshooting
Q: i can not update my watch/its stuck/acting weird
Have you tried to reset the watch? there are 3 ways to do it
Restart watch from app. under update there is a restart button (it says reset but it restarts and keeps all your settings)
Reset from watch (Last menu point, this resets everything)
Hard reset (connect charge cable and press up and down button to reset)
Force OTA update:
Connect your watch to the charger. (watch must be charging)
Press all 3 buttons on the side simultaneously
Release the 2 side buttons, and keep the middle button pressed until you get the upgrade connecting display. (this might take some seconds)
Delete connection from phone
Connect and pair from app and upgrade
If you are on an Android device and it cannot connect, try an ios device, and vice versa
Q: The watch keeps switching back to chinese
More people have experienced that if the language is non english the watch will reset to chinese. Changing the phone OS to english stops the watch from switching to Chinese.

How To install GoClever Chronos ECO firmware on Weloop tommy (android only)
Download latest ECO firmware to phone
Disconnect Watch from phone, install ECO app
Go to “Check For Upgrade”
Tap on the middle circle six times
“Select a firmware file___ [Browse]”
Watch must be in forced OTA
Update watch.
You can flash between weloop and Goclever firmware (always be careful and follow instructions when flashing, i take no responsibility for bricked or exploding watches...)
To install weloop firnware, follow same instructions but use weloop app instead.
PROJECT OPEN FIRMWARE (please make sure you understand what this is and what it does before you attemtp to flash your watch)
Make a Weloop Tommy an open source sport watch that can be used without a mobile phone. Want to see a heart rate when running, cycling speed and cadence when cycling or number of laps while swimming? Help to make it possible! LINK
This project is divided into six phases:
Phase 1: find out and document watch pinout so it will be possible to communicate with screen, accelerometer and a flash memory from a custom firmware. DONE
Phase 2: write a custom firmware that will print sample text on a screen and expose a BLE service. Firmware will be flashed using SWD connector. DONE
Phase 3: make it possible to upload a custom firmware using OTA. This will save the waterproof case from destruction. DONE
Phase 4: update softdevice to the newest version (S110 8.0.0). Add possibility to switch to other softdevice (S120/S130) DONE
Phase 5: create a "terminal" firmware that allows to control what is displayed on a watch from an android/iOS app. IN PROGRESS
Phase 6: create a "standalone" firmware using S130 softdevice that can connect to external sensors (HRS, CSCS etc) without a phone. TODO
Go support developer Krzysiek

BUGS & Annoyances
Notification not always deleted from phone when deleted on watch
Watch freezes sometimes
Being able to set the night time manually would be great (This can be done with the Goclever fw)

I'm no Dev so I'm not sure if this is of any help. While updating the watch I wanted to ensure my screen stayed on so I was tapping the screen.
If you tap the center of the percentage 6 times a pop up appears for you to select your update file. If you select browse it gives you access to a bunch of folders that appear to be inside the app or maybe the watch itself. I tried it several times and 6 is the magic number to make the option appear or disappear. It doesn't work if the watch isn't upgrading it's firmware.
Hope it can be of some use

Hi , the chronos eco app is not compatible with the Weloop Tommy.

Brand new Tommy, it was paired with my phone but the connection was unstable, so I tried and forced an OTA update, watch is "Updating... 0 pct" but now the phone cannot detect the watch any more
Resetting the watch will restart it in ota update mode again!
Any help appreciated...

Happened to me also, try to delete connection under bluetooth settings on device. now connect to to weloop and pair from Weloop app. keep trying and then go to update. again persistence is key. keep trying to update suddenly it will connect and update.
Whas the watch on latest firmware when you tried the force OTA?
are you on android or ios see if there is an updated App for you phone. see link on OP for beta APK.
let me know if it works.

watch was not on latest firmware, cant' remember which version it had.
I'm on android, also v1.24 does not help as check for updates does not go beyond "Checking version...".

Try to update the Weloop app, latest is 1.27.
kill weloop app
delete bt connection from phone.
Open weloop app
conmect and update. Keep trying it can take a couple of times.
If all fails if possible try with other device and or ios device

update: I used an iphone and after a few retries I got it on v3.18.
back to android, but the pairing and the sync is problematic, to say the least, on my Huawei P7...

If it's allowing you to select an update file, surely it is showing you the file system of the phone? Otherwise, you'd have no way to put a firmware update file there to select. My understanding would be this allows you to install a firmware update file stored on your phone, although I can't test this for sure as my Android phone is currently being repaired. There's some discussion about this here and that thread also contains a very small amount of analysis on the firmware file (VERY small amount, basically just analysing the name of the binary file), and another app that is apparently in some way related (link).
For what I can glean from the description of that app (seemingly made by the manufacturer of the SoC [System on a Chip] used in the WeLoop Tommy), it would appear that devices using the SoC (including the Tommy) have three firmwares: "bootloader", "soft device" and "application". The one embedded within the WeLoop app apk has the name "ble_app_ancs.bin"; ble stands for bluetooth low energy and ancs apparently stands for apple notification centre services. That leaves "app" - my guess would be this is the "application firmware". I'm not entirely sure the roles of the "bootloader" and "soft device" firmwares, but my guess is the one or other allows the device to get into "DFU mode" (or "OTA mode" as it seems to be referred to also), meaning in theory it should perhaps be possible to recover from any bricks arising from flashing dodgy application firmwares.
So potentially there is the option of reverse engineering the firmware (easily obtained from here: http://wtf.li/ - mirror of the APKs of the app [each of which contain a version of the firmware], and also one version of the firmware (the .bin file) separately), and creating a custom/modified one, while still being able to recover (because bootloader & soft device should be untouched). However, I have neither the expertise nor the time to look into that.
Without an Android phone with which to run either of the apps right now, I can't poke about too much (I only received my Tommy today), but once I get my phone back I'll maybe try and see if I can find anything else interesting. I'd like to see if I can figure out any way to get access to the watch faces, and see if they can be reverse engineered in any way, for example.
EDIT: Here is the output of strings run on the firmware binary from the latest version of the app on http://wtf.li : http://pastebin.com/X7TQXTb3 - nothing particularly interesting, a few filenames of the source files and a few other strings seen in the watch interface and stuff.
EDIT: A couple of URLs accessed by the app (seemingly related to updating):
http://au.umeng.com/api/check_app_update
http://www.yfsmart.com/weloopInterface/getFirmware.do
I can't see anything on these sites, my guess would be they need query strings parameters or something (not really sure what, some way of identifying that the app is accessing the site) to actually do anything.
EDIT: Hmm... http://www.yfsmart.com/weloopInterface/firmware_Upload.jsp - this site seems to allow you to upload a firmware. I wonder if it allows anyone to upload a firmware, which would then be downloaded by everyone when they check for updates? Certainly seems rather insecure...There's a bunch of other pages at http://www.yfsmart.com/weloopInterface/ haven't looked through them all yet.
EDIT: From what I can glean from this page ("SoftDevices" section under the "Development Tools and Software" tab), it seems like the "soft device" firmware is essentially a bit like a library, it's a precompiled binary supplied by Nordic (company that makes chip inside Tommy) which provides all the networking functions etc. which the "application" firmware uses. So:
Code:
application = front end UI (basically, the part WeLoop made)
soft device = "library" via which application can access hardware etc.
bootloader = initial part of firmware that loads SD + app firmwares
So the only really interesting part is probably the application firmware, the part that is in the WeLoop app. That's the code that actually "matters", the rest is just low level stuff. For actually changing the interface or whatever, modifying the app firmware would be all that's needed (for example, to increase the font size or the back light duration etc.).

Thank you for the insights and findings its all very promising. :good:
On a sidenote:
I talked to one of my colleagues who is an engineer (i'm not a dev but a Designer), it seems like we in the office are playing around with the exact same SOC from NordicSemiconducter. we tried one of the apps from the google play store and it connects to the weloop(see attached pic). The app was called "nRF Master Control Panel", tried the other apps from NordicSC but no luck.
Hopefully there will be some sort of SDK with the v3.0 release on the 30th...

I got my Android phone back today, and haven't tinkered too much with Tommy just yet, but I can confirm that the file system you are browsing when you tap the percentage 5 times during an update is just the phone file system. It browses from root (i.e. /), rather than /sdcard or whatever, which is the standard, user accessible partition, hence there are some folders etc. you may not recognise, but amongst them will be "sdcard" which will take you to your regular storage (note: this is the case on phones without a micro SD card as well), where you could easily place an update file.

Press all 3 buttons on the side simultaneously
Release the 2 side buttons, and keep the middle button pressed until you get the upgrade connecting display. (this might take some seconds)
Delete connection from phone

[HowTo] Disable heads up notification on Nougat (NO ROOT required)

After many sleepless nights, I found solution.
As we don't have in our stock ROMs System UI tuner, we can do this even without root.
First, you'll need ADB, USB debugging ON and Samsung Drivers.
ADB:
- https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
- https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
Turn on usb debugging from developer menu (tap build number 7 times to show developer settings menu)
Samsung Drivers
- http://www.devfiles.co/download/AbRa7wHc/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe
Connect your device via USB.
Open terminal (command prompt) inside ADB folder (hold shift and mouse right click on blank space)
write :
Code:
adb devices
You should see your phone listed as numbers. After that write:
Code:
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
Restart your phone. Now your heads up notification nightmare has gone.

I FOUND A SOLUTION WITHOUT HAVING TO INSTALL ANY EXTRA APPS!
So we have all been getting the annoying heads up notifications that we don't want appearing on our phone when it's unlocked right?! Well I found a solution after playing round with my phone. First I changed the notification settings in my apps for example WhatsApp, Facebook messenger etc by going to settings > notifications > select each app you want to stop heads up from > allow notifications > show silently. Toggle this to on.
Now wait I've not finished, the go back into settings > accessibility > notification reminder and turn this on. Then turn sound on and vibrate on and select the apps you wish to receive notifications from. Then there you have it , this stops the heads up but then reminds you 1 minute later that you have a notification! I'm sure a 1 minute wait won't hurt to stop those heads up!

Yesterday I was searching a solution for my Note 5 and I didn't notice that it was the S7 edge forum.
I follow the tutorial step by step and it works very well too on my Note 5 SM-N920C NRD90M.N920CXXS4CRD1 (April 2018 release).
However, I do not know how to use this: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip , what is it?
In my case I use the other link for ADB installation.
P.D.: may someone put this tutorial in Note 5 forum too? I think it will be useful.

Great, except your phone then beebs ever minute until you review the notification - which can be incredibly annoying.

Thank you for this!

(HELP) Rooting Samsung S7 Edge without Wipe

Hello XDA community,
Im a noobie when it comes to rooting, thats why i need help...
I deleted some files that i want to recover on my Samsung S7 Edge 2-3 years ago, this device has Android 7.0. (Never updated)
There is a lot of apps such as Disk Digger that offer you to recover every single file but the device must be rooted to access 100% on the internal memory.
Right now my Samsung S7 Edge is not rooted but i need to root to recover this files, so my question is, there is anyway of rooting without factory reset, or there is anyway of doing a fully backup of the internal memory of my device without touching the partitions so then i can try recovering my files later with this apps?
I hope someone can help me...
Regards

It's pretty disappointing that nobody ever responded to this considering how big is a community it is and how popular the S7 Edge was. I know this is pretty old and hopefully you were able to resolve this before this message but I'm going to respond to this just so you don't feel like your question wasn't acknowledged at all. I have an S7 Edge through Verizon which uses the Snapdragon processor. And I will find a link to post for you that although the method says it's discontinued I rooted my phone through this method and it works fine. The only reason that you would have to wipe your phone is if you're changing firmware as far as I know. I've rooted my phones and did not have to wipe them. I kept all the data and everything.
Before I lift this you are also asking about an application that you could use to back up your phone and that would be Samsung smart switch. It has a companion app for the desktop and it sinks to the phone and it'll make a backup of your data.
Now on to the root method all props and praise goes to the people that worked to give this to the people I'm not good at doing all this **** and I'm not meaning to step on any toes I'm just trying to help you since nobody did for two ****ing years.
To root
1. Download PrinceComsys Odin
Odin.Prince.Comsy.zip
drive.google.com
2. Download the engboot.
Engboot Download
Nougat_S7_Edge_EngBoot.tar.md5
drive.google.com
3 make sure you have adb and fastboot installed on your computer (goggle them)
4. Root file
Download the file below.
Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V2.zip | by jrkruse for Galaxy S7 Edge
Download GApps, Roms, Kernels, Themes, Firmware, and more. Free file hosting for all Android developers.
androidfilehost.com
BELOW IS THE ROOT AND MOD FOR THE PHONE!!!!!
Follow this method to root:
1. Shut off the phone and boot into download mode (volume down, home, and power). Use Odin And Flash Nougat_S7_Edge_EngBoot.tar.md5 In AP Slot
2. When the phone reboots, unlock developer options by going into the phone settings scroll down to 'about phone' find the build number and tap on it repeatedly after several times it will unlock Developer Options then back out once and in your settings you should have a new option on the very bottom called developer options go into that and enable USB debugging and Disable Verify Apps Over USB.
Plug the phone into the computer and make sure you have adb and fastboot installed to this location
C:\Users\YOUR PROFILE\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools
go to that folder and inside it hold shift and right click then click on 'open command window here'
then in command prompt type
adb devices
then hit enter.
The computer should automaticly detect and run adb
3. Unzip the Nougat_S7_Root_2_82_All_Carriers_V2.zip and hold shift and right click then click on 'open command window here'
In the command window type root.bat then press enter from your PC.
4. This will install root when done phone will reboot
5. The process wipes dalvik cache so it will take a few minutes to reboot
6. If having problems getting Grant SuperSU dialog to come up you can delete the SuperSU app and root will be granted instantly to all root request
Give phone a few min to settle open developer options set animation scales .05 and others to .05
Give phone a few min to settle open developer options set animation scales .05 and others to .05
ODIN FAILED TO WRITE ERROR
Did you get this Failed To Write Message in Odin?
----------------------------
Odin Error Message:
<ID:0/003> FAIL! Model dismatch fail
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
SOLUTIONS
Did you:
? Open Odin as Administrator?
? Try the Prince Comsy version?
? Enable Developer Settings?
-Open Settings > About Phone > Tap Build Number 7 Times
? Enable OEM Unlock?
-Go Back to Settings > Tap Developer Options > Tap OEM Unlock
? Enable USB Debugging?
-Tap Developer Options > Tap USB Debugging
NOTHING WORKS
Did you try every single thing but nothing works?
Well, did you right click "Odin" each time you go to open it and then click "open as administrator"?
Sometimes you have to try several different versions of Odin.
But I have found that Odin3 v3.12.7 was the one that would work when the others had not.
I always would forget to also open Odin as Administrator.
It's a pain in the neck to have to remember to open as admin every time.
But you usually have to do it.
Did you check that ADB had started? Maybe that might be the reason it won't work?
But I doubt it! But you just never know and I am just trying to help you get it flashed.
It's a very quick flash and you can see that the PDA load was very quick as well.
But as far as the errors, you just have to keep trying...
Which I mean, you sometimes have to open, close, reopen Odin when it doesn't work.
Sometimes that helps, sometimes it doesn't.
It's all about the right Odin version at the time
making sure the cord is good
Opening Odin as Admin
And keep trying again after restarting your phone by holding the download mode button sequence again.
============
Congratulations! You are ROOTED but you're not done
Follow these instructions next
On your phone, open the SuperSU app (installed during the root process) and tap on Settings. Half-way down under Security, tap on "Enable su during boot".
This option will ensure that startup scripts that are installed during this process get to do their job correctly.
Download the fix or fix+debloat script flashable ZIP package appropriate for your model of phone and copy this file to your device:
S7_VOLTE_ICON_FIX_ALL_VARIANTS or S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip (MD5 hash F15CD9BDC35382A8F48FFBEDBB1BCDF0) (any Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge)
turn off auto update of time and date in your phone settings, then set your year to 2013,
Launch FlashFire app on the phone and click the (+) button in the lower right to add a step. Select a 'Flash ZIP or OTA' flash step.
Locate the flashable ZIP package and select it. For options, check on 'Mount /system read/write' and leave the rest of the options unchecked.
Tweaks to Root
Debloat and fix several issues with the phone (CPU lag issues, poor battery performance, phone becoming too hot, Wi-Fi not saving passwords, hotspot/tethering not working,

after you flash your stuff change the date back. and you're good.
I know this all seems like a lot and it seems very confusing but it's pretty easy if you just follow the directions this will not wipe your data. Please do research, read through the forms and just tried to get as much knowledge as you can before you go about doing this it's an easy process but it's better to go in with more knowledge, I hope this helps. If you have to reinstall the firmware make sure that you install CSC home so you don't lose your data

Android 11- OneUI 3.0 (Beta 1,2 & 3) - Manual Update/SideLoad (N986U & N986U1) - [Guide]

********** ANNOUNCEMENT - Beta Enrollment without Banner (OPEN NOW - Nov 16,17) - Read More Here​
INTRODUCTION - Hello all. Now Samsung wants us to go to Members app and keep looking for banner to sign up for Android 11, One UI 3 Beta . It went live October 27th, 10:20 PM EST, As fate would have it, i went to sleep early, i missed it and the banner refused to show up for me in the morning. Download was only showing up for people with unlocked variants on ATID firmware.
DISCLAIMER / NOTICE - Flashing is always risky. I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device including but not limited to it turning against you, making you its slave and sucking you into the Matrix.
This post is a collection of wisdom, research and hard work of many people over many years across many forums and not just XDA. I will try to credit and link to their original posts.
TIP -Keep in Notice -This SHALL NOT Factory Reset Your Device or Format Data, it is still a good idea to Take Back Up - Just a Suggestion - Always have a latest Back Up
******** UPDATE - It seems ATT devices are getting wiped now if its CSC or the Sim remains to be tested.
i don't have ATT hence cant verify but in case you have an Unlocked device (N986U1) with ATT sim, then, removing sim and Changing the CSC to XAA/XAA/XAA before sideloading Beta is advisable.​
PROBLEM STATEMENT - Missed the One UI 3.0, Android 11, Beta Sign up Banner in Members app or got the banner but didn't get the download and I really want it NOW.
Not sure if you want it now? - Find the BETA CHANGELOG HERE
GRAB YOURSELF A COFFEE / DRINK, because depending on where you at and how fast you/your internet speeds/your Machine is this may take anywhere between 7 to 45 Mins​SOLUTION -
1. Pre-Requisites - Make sure Following Conditions are met before you start
You need a PC/Laptop along with your phone and USB Cable.
You need ADB installed, you can use ADB on Linux too - NOTE If your ADB Tools are not working, download my ADB Folder called platform-tools. Then extract it somewhere easy to remember/ find, like desktop
Remember the Location of the folder where you have ADB installed / Location of platform-tools- This is the location containing adb.exe file.
You may or may not need ADB/USB Drivers if any errors in ADB please Download Drivers from here and Install on your PC.
This following one step is relevant Only for flashing Beta 1
Use Odin to Flash Unlocked (SM-N986U1) ATID Firmware if you are not on that. Refer this thread to get your Firmware.
For changing Firmware from N986U to N986U1 and / or GUIDE TO FLASHING USING ODIN Refer This thread
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. Now Download the relevant Beta File that you intend to flash - note that to Sideload Beta 2 you need to be on Beta 1 first. Mandotory Sequence = Beta 1>>Beta 2>>Beta 3 There is no skipping versions possible here.
BETA 1 (ZTGJ) Get the Beta1.zip file from here Thanks to @thatotherguy.. for the original zip.
BETA 2 (ZTK1) Get the Beta2.zip file from here
BETA 3 (ZTK9) Get the Beta3.zip file from here

*************** Apply Update from SD card failed for me (Feel free to try that ) but here we will be using ADB Sideload Feature in Stock Recovery*************​
HOW TO - Using ADB Sideload - Windows -The Process is Similar for Linux too
1. Copy the downloaded zip file to the ADB Folder (From Pre-Requisite step). ADB Folder is the folder containing ADB.exe it might be named differently for you (The one i have posted is called platform-tools)
2. Open Command Prompt Window as Admin.
3. Type in
Code:
cd Copy-paste the location of your ADB folder here
4. Connect the phone to the PC using USB Cable and Unlock it. Go to Developer Options and Switch on USB Debugging.
To turn on developer options go to Settings>>About Phone>>Software Information>> Then tap the build number 7 times - Developer options will appear at the bottom of Settings Menu
5. On your PC Type in Command Prompt
Code:
adb devices
6. Give Permission that appears on your phone and PC - I check the box Always Allow, you should do the same.
7. Now type the following and the phone will reboot to recovery.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
8. Once you see recovery on your phone Use Volume Keys to scroll down to Apply Update from ADB and press Power Button.
9. Now on your PC, Type the following in Command Prompt; this is just to be sure, it should show the device name with Sideload next to it.
Code:
adb devices
10. Type
Code:
adb sideload Beta1.zip
For Beta 2 use adb sideload beta2.zip Similarly For Beta 3 use adb sideload beta3.zip. Use whatever you have named the zip file. Most people use update.zip. The commands here are for the attached files in this post and their naming convention.
11. Wait for it to finish and Done

I flashed on an Unlocked one so there is no way for me to tell if this can be flashed on N986U since so many people have flashed Unlocked firmware on the U devices using Odin (One confirmed guy flashed unlocked firmware on Verizon locked device and got the Beta banner) hence i think this will work for all Snapdragon devices. Give it a try and see. Just that before you try this make sure you are on ATID firmware.

Too early in the morning to go out and test that. This is Beta and i have already encountered some bugs. So you have to be up for that.
Good Lock wont work, gesture navigation is buggy, you can not even apply wallpapers from the Galaxy Themes app.
Wallpaper Service on the other hand is greatly improved. Fingerprint sensor is much faster.

My friend there are so many reasons why that error can happen. Sometimes you might have to change the ADB version. I am attaching the platform-tools i used. Extract this zip inside folder on desktop and try. If that doesnt work you might need to update ADb/Samsung drivers. Let us know if this works.
