** Root NOT required for this **

Make the N8II faster ! and have more battery life !

Uninstalling around 60 apps

they aren't removed from the N8II rather uninstalled for the default user i.e. us
They can be reinstalled, they also come back after a factory reset.

You will need to enable Developer Options
(clicking on 'Firmware Version' in Settings, System and About device a good few times)

You will need to enable usb debugging in developer options
You will need ADB on your computer to connect to a console session on your N8II via USB

working great with N8ii here for fine tuning and more battery life! Thanks Steve. Again, no root needed. The app nobloat free doesn’t do much

Pdf Guide for Neutron settings
drive.google.com/file/d/1ytnSvq-qA47qeC7Qduft0JHBxveTZBbC/view?usp=drivesdk

summarized root process

You assume and are fully responsible for all RISKS associated to your N8II. If you brick it, it isnt our problems.

in order to rooting your N8ii. You will need to follow Steve First post to download all of your QFIL tools, and also Android USB Drivers and so on. The N8ii USB driver will have to be manually installed by you, otherwise flashing it will not be valid. At least it was in my case.

For the prepared Boot Img, you can download it from my google share link here . This is only for the latest Firmware 1.3 from CAYIN. Make sure you are on the newest firmware
drive.google.com/file/d/1DgJNQ4OMlQ5_BwUfJ2gDWGv1vArwEsOB/view?usp=sharing

Connect your N8ii
Enable developer options
Boot Loader is unlocked by Cayin as default ! YAY!!
enter EDL Mode with ADB by command .\ADB reboot EDL
Open up QFIL, then select your PORT
Select FLAT BUILD
Enable UFS as Steve mentioned, Lower Right corner
Go to Tool >> Partition Manager >> Read it
Find Boot
Right click on Boot, and flash with the provided Boot as above. For future firmware, you can retrieve this boot, and find it location, then drag it onto your N8ii, using Magiskdisk to patch it.

After flashing, seek out for Root checker to verify your status

Then go to Smartpack website and download it APK. Do not search for it on googlestore

Potentials problems you may encounter. If N8ii is stuck in EDL , hold all 4 side buttons and unplug then plug back in the usb cables for 15 seconds, it will Start up with logo. If logo is stuck then hold the power the next button and play together while holding play button

No it's Hiby's system wide MSEB !!! and plugins, as the ROM/DAP is based on the Hiby R8 I gave it ago and it just works. Everything is in the ROM already, it just needed enabling.

And yes a black case 😂

There are apps but i've not tried them on N8ii and the edit saves having crap running in the background.

It would be simple enough to add an icon to the launcher that will change the setting and reboot.

To enable system wide MSEB and Plugins on your N8ii

You must first root it (all info, tools and files on this forum)

Then edit the following file:

/system/build.prop

add the following 2 lines to the end:

ro.vendor.mseb=yes
ro.vendor.plugin=yes

Save and restart

The 2 new menu options will show up in Audio Settings

darwin controller ?

Its based on R8, it says R8 as a device when you plug it in your computer.

I doubt it will do anything even if it can be anabled. Same as I can enable the R8 Turbo as an option but it doesn't do anything as the hardware is not there.

Fir filter should be accepted as ROHM Chip can take it (customizable filter). Let’s give it a try. Also, can we enable P+ and class A together ? Why worry about overheat if there is thermal shutdown. Especially, when we can use heatsink too

also, the over sampling rate is customizable. I just don’t know where to look for in the ROHM vendor package =/

What should I need to do exactly to root my N8ii ?

> 'Find boot'

I see boot_a and boot_b in Partition Manager... so 2 boot partitions ?

> 'Right click on Boot, and flash with the provided Boot'

A right click on partition shows me several options.
If I choose 'Manage Partition Data', should I need to select 'Load Image...' afterwards ?

Should I need to follow these steps on boot_a and boot_b?
