Questions about rooting snapdragon - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

I have a s8 plus snapdragon on Oreo. Can I root on Oreo or do I have to, if possible , downgrade to Nougat?
I waited 7 days for a oem unlock,but it did not show, so what does that imply?

No. It is standard to forget about old Android.
Is any brand who do different?
lol I decided to downgrade to Nougat to use Magisk and Xposed and it's a right thing for me, no regret. Oreo is great, good battery (but not much compared to Nougat, fast and smooth (Nougat already has this) and has low ram usage but I cant live without Xposed, the benefits from Xposed are extremely big so Nougat is my daily home lol
Never heard of any phone maker that does this. It's Nougat or nothing

Is there any chance for note 10 lite to get a rom cook?

Hi guys, I was wondering whether it is possible for our note 10 lite to get a rom cook? Or it will be likely to have nothing? Thank you very much
+1, with at first please TWRP !!!!!!!
1. Custom Rom
OneUI based - you just bought the new released phone - which custom rom base you have in mind to bring it to note 10 lite?
AOSP based - Lineage probably will make a rom for this device - but then, why did you buy an SPEN rich feature phone in the first place, if you want an AOSP? You gotta realize how much of these oneui features you'll loose on an AOSP rom.
At the note 10 lite price point why didn't you buy an oneplus (just an example) which is so rich friendly on custom roms? And with an SD845/855 which is better than Exy9810.
@w41ru5
For me, I want stock samsung custom ROM (not AOSP, because too many lost fonctionnalities !)
Advantages :
_ TWRP : backup/restore/.....repair/....customize
_ Debloated
_ already root
_ no need to factory reset
_ already in debug mode (cool if you break your screen or screen don't work anymore ! I experience this on note 4 of my wife and can backup config/data without screen )
For example, ALEXNDR make very cool stock samsung ROM ! please ALEXNDR.... and please team TWRP for custom recovery
bad question. few people own note 10 lite. it is not possible to take root in the near future. I own note 8 for two years and I never had to root or unlock the bootloader.own octopus box and rooting is not possible.

Note 10 lite has an Exynos SoC which can be rooted because unlockable bootloader.
Maybe you have a note 8 with SnapDragon SoC for American market which has locked bootloader.

Note 8 can be rooted and there are quite a few ROMs for it, like a great ROM from @corsicanu.
As for note 10 lite, as long as the bootloader can be unlocked, where's the issue for not being rooted?
@w41ru5 : Your wrong ! Note 10 lite bootloader can be unlocked and android rooted ! See My method : xda
But custom recovery missing !!!
