So you managed to flash magisk after that?

Yes magisk installed successfully.

I tried to move an app to system but LuckyPatcher keep showing
" error : there is not enough space within the system partition to move the application. Please free up space in /system then try again. If you use SuperSU, try disable" mount namespace seperation" in SuperSU. "

Do you have solution?

...why are u using lucky patcher to convert to system app? :eek:

personally i do it within twrp, but it's a little hard to explain.

the mediatek in the pro is a lot better than the mediateks of the past, no need to worry now. even when gaming it is on par with other similar phones both in terms of performance and heat output.

Are you the same BW?

A few posts before you sound like a noob.... but now you talk like ....pro

I am really noob in handphone. :o I just walk to store and play with the mobile phone. :o I read forum, watch youtube and google information on the phone. :o I need one for my taxi business. :o So I have to read and learn as much as possible to avoid a poor purchase. :o

Hi, can share how to do it within twrp?

before booting into twrp, take note of the package name of the app u want to convert to system, like whatsapp is com.whatsapp, and google play store is com.android.vending. can check through settings, or since u have magisk now, can check directly in /data with a file explorer with root access. in /data/app, there are folders for each app with the package name + some random lettering, so just see which folder name is for the app u want to convert.

so once u boot into twrp, go to mounts and mount every system and data partition. then go back to the main screen, then go to advanced >> file manager and navigate to /data/app. open the folder of the app u want to convert, then tap on the blue button on the bottom right corner with the icon of a folder with a tick, then select copy folder. u can now navigate to /system/app or /system/priv-app (for important apps like google play services which require more privileges) and tap on the same bottom right corner button again to paste, then slide the slider to confirm. however, i'm not sure if rn8 supports system as root like the rn7 did. if it does, u should see another folder named system-root in the root of your phone, and u should paste the folder in /system-root/app or /system-root/priv-app. after that can just reboot. if u did everything correctly, then the app should now show as a system app, and if u want u can save some space by tapping on "uninstalling updates" (if it wasn't converted properly it will remain as just "uninstall").

be sure to make backups of the app beforehand (possible with titanium backup since u now have root), and bear in mind that such conversions will be overwritten by system updates, which means u will lose the app after miui updates if the app itself is not updated after this conversion. hopefully i made some sense... :o

What did you choose for your wallet? You will need to choose hce/mce (something like that) as wallet

I sold off moi poco F1 armour edition, wonder if this note 8 pro can be a better replacement in terms of replacement.
Poco F1 equivalent is mi9Tpro / k20pro.

Note8pro at best equivalent or slightly better is mi9T/k20.

go read back a few pages, got someone link to xda for working twrp. but not official and is from chinese forum, so maybe still in testing. then again, if it works, it works.
