I follow some of tutorials in youtube about installing TWRP in j200f but all of them still boots in stock system boot recovery, and failed to flash TWRP. and now i notice in your last step of instruction on installation, that i should go to the boot recovery by doing this "Hold [Volume Up] + [Home] buttons near the end of the flash, and keep holding them until you are in recovery." should i wait for the RESET message in ODIN window? before i do the boot recovery mode? what do you mean "near the end of the flash" help please.

Make sure you have checked the option OEM UNLOCKING and USB DEBUGGING in development mode.
Also the latest super su zip also works.

Root or ROMs for 2019 Tab A 8.0" (SM-P200/5)

I realize this may be quite hard to answer but hopefully someone has some idea
I'm really tempted by the new galaxy tab a 8 with s pen (sm-p200/sm-p205). It's the perfect size for quick note taking
Thing is, I really want root and custom roms for it, does anyone have any thoughts as to how likely these are to eventuate? It shares the same chipset (exynos 7885) as the 2018 Galaxy A8 phone which has been rooted
Is this device likely to get root or custom rom support?

It seems we have magisk root here :
https://blog.gsm-social.com/2019/07/p205-u1-9-and-magisk/
But I don't understand Arabic. Can anyone check this site?

Could someone update on any feedback if they managed to get the P200/205 rooted?
Thanks a lot for the info

I've actually try this method on my P205 (China/ Hong Kong version) but could not make it work. It's possible that maybe works on an international version of the P205 or on the P200. Has anyone else tried this method with any success?

Hi,
successfuly rooted mine. It is the malaysian version of the tab. As this is a new device from 2019 with System-as-Root and Android 9.0 Magisk must be installed to the recovery partition. Everytime you reboot you must press the keycombination for booting from the recovery partition. ( Vol Up + Power).
Use the tutorial from the readme on the magisk github page

Hi,
i have the LTE Version SM-P205. As it arrived it had an old firmware so I first updated to the current stock Firmware P205DXU2ASH2 with the normal Samsung Update.
I downloaded the correspondending firmware files again for magisk patching with samfirm tool or if you or prefer from the usual samsung firmware download pages.
As i have a CSC from malaysia i took the XME CSC Firmware. From there on you can just fellow the magisk tutorial. Hopefully someone compiles a twrp recovery as firmware sources are available. So now i am on stock rooted firmware P205DXU2ASH2 .
I am using the LTE Version here in germany without any problems.

Thanks again for the info. I will try follow the same steps and attempt to root again. I've had endless Samsung devices and this is the first time I am having problems trying to get one rooted.. Then again this is a much different process than the usual and we don't have Recovery yet. Given the limited sales and interest in this Tab (which is really a shame), probably there won't be too much development around it. This is actually the best price/features Tab Samsung makes now and the perfect form factor/size. If only the hardware was a bit faster and the camera a bit bigger.. but hey, can't have everything, haha
Thanks again for sharing the info, much appreciated

You know, I have received lots of PM regarding root as no one seems to be successful at it. You should start a new thread, call it something like "SM-P205 ROOT ACHIEVED" and post a step-by-step guide on how you did it. Not many people are following this thread here and news of root for this Tab will make thousands of people very happy worldwide.
If you have the time, you should do it. The whole community here appreciation is guaranteed

Awesome, I'll check it out now

Just bought the wifi variant of this tablet here in Germany too.....Seems to be a good 8" alternative. Looking forward to installing twrp and a Lineage ROM. Any news for that?

samsung unlockBL downgraderoot AutoBootCharge autoSd3HrIdle Charge to 65%
It is sharing of experience only without any liability or warranty.
Why: I use the tab very rarely but in critical requirement, I am getting it in discharged condition when i needed. Good news is that , in off condition it consumes around 1% per 10 days. I did not want to root it, but this tab at least shoud have have scheduled shutdown like other makes. The battery protect mode does not function properly. However thanks to Samsung for leaving the facility to unlock the Bootloader, rooting etc for advanced users (I feel definitely it has the capability to lock fully like apple )
Pre requirements
1. Samsung Tab A 2019 P200 (I have no experience on other models) charged more than 50%
2. Usb cable
3. Samsung USB Drivers
4. Windows 10 PC with UPS
5. Firmware suitable to your phone / region
6. Odin3-v3.14.4
7. 7Z ZS
8. Magisk Manager
9. Root explorer
I. Unlocking Bootloader
Normally I wouldn’t provide instructions for this, but since things had changed drastically from previous Samsung devices, and there are some caveats, I figure this would be helpful.
The following worked for me
• Installed Samsung USB driver on PC
• Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
• Disconnect the USB cable
• Power off the device
• Press and hold Volume Up & Down keys
• Insert USB cable
• Long press Volume up key
• Press Volume up ( yes) to unlock BootLoader
Just when you think the bootloader is unlocked, it is actually not! Samsung introduced VaultKeeper, meaning the bootloader will reject any unofficial partitions before VaultKeeper explicitly allows it.
• Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again later when we are installing Magisk. Connect the device to internet in the setup!
• Enable developer options, and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and grayed out! (yes it happened in my case) The VaultKeeper service will unleash the bootloader after it confirms that the user has the OEM unlocking option enabled.
• Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode.
II. Downgrade Flash instructions
1. Extract (unzip) the Samsung firmware file. Recommended using 7-Zip ZS
2) Install Samsung USB driver on PC if already not installed
3. , Extract Odin ZIP file Odin Tool 3.14.4 Downloaded, Open Odin execute file
4.) Remove Samsung . Google etc accounts from Tab
5. Reboot Samsung phone in Download Mode (hold Power + Volume Up buttons, it will booted to Recovery, select reboot to bootloader, Downloading screen will come then plug-in cable)
6. Connect you Samsung phone and wait until you get a blue symbol with com port no in Odin
7. Add the 1 file Samsung firmware to AP/PDA or 4 files Samsung firmware (AP/BL/CP/CSC) to it's slots (for P205 it will be 5 files)
8. Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked at Options at Odin
9. Click the START button, sit back and wait few minutes
Downgrading BootLoader-Theory
Downgrading BootLoader is Not possible unless you modify the BL….. .tar.md5 by removing the .bin files in it, then tar it up and flash in odin (- NOT TRIED).
The secure bootloader (sboot.bin) won't allow the downgrade of itself. you can't downgrade because the bootloader is protected by Rollback Prevention, So apparently I can only install firmware files which come with the same Bootloader.
We need to know what your current "Build Number" is on the phone. You also can't downgrade to other bootloaders that are lower then your current one, so if you're on bootloader 5 you need to use the Oreo bootloader 5 version firmware or it will not work. (Bootloader # is the 5th spot from the right.
Rollback Prevention (RP)
Rollback Prevention blocks the device from loading or flashing an approved but old version of boot components. Old versions of software may contain known vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit. Rollback prevention checks the version of the bootloader and kernel during both boot and updates, and blocks these processes from continuing if versions are unacceptably old. The lowest acceptable version of the bootloader is stored in secure hardware fuses when the device is flashed, and the lowest acceptable version of the kernel is stored in the bootloader itself. Whenever a vendor-applied update occurs, the lowest acceptable version can be incremented in the fuses. Because this value is kept in fuses, it cannot be decremented even through physical tampering. Rollback Prevention fuses are set at manufacturing time in the Samsung factory to prevent old firmware versions from overwriting newer ones.
Present version on device: P200ZHU2ASK2 (Settings>About Tabet>Software information>Build No XXXX XXXXXXX P200ZHU2ASK2, Service Provider SW ver ………….TGY// i.e Hongkong) , tried and failed is : P200ZHU1ASG1 , but now downgraded (bootloader is same version) P200ZHU2ASH2.
III. Rooting
Notes Installing Magisk
• Your device is non-A/B and uses system-as-root, so Magisk will be installed to the recovery partition of your device.
• Installing Magisk WILL trip KNOX (void Warranty)
• Installing Magisk for the first time REQUIRES a full data wipe, backup before continue
• You have to have your bootloader unlocked before following the instructions
Instructions on Rooting
1. Unzip the firmware P200ZHU2ASH2 on PC and copy the AP tar file to your Phone. It is normally named as AP_P200ZHU2ASH2_CL16717766_QB25581052_REV01_user_low_ship_meta_OS9.tar.md5
2. Install the latest Magisk Manager
3. In Magisk Manager: Install → Install > select and patch file> browse to location of file > tap and hold to select >open e.g AP tar file> working version / build is MagiskManager-v7.5.1.apk) (internet connection will make install button visible )
4. Magisk Manager will patch the whole firmware file and store the output to [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.tar
5. Copy the patched file to your PC with adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.tar. Do not use MTP as it is reported to corrupt files.
It will be copied to PC at C:\Users\......\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
6. Reboot to download mode, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in Odin, together with the BL, CP and HOME_CSC files. Never flash only an AP file, as Odin can shrink your /data file-system if you do.
Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Options !
7. Magisk is now successfully flashed to your device! But there are still several steps before you can properly use the device.
8. We now want to boot into the stock recovery to factory reset our device.
9. Disconnect the phone.
10. Full data wipe is mandatory! Do not skip this step.
Press Power + Volume Down to exit download mode. As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press the combo key (Power + Volume Up) to boot to recovery continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen (Not patched recovery , as it has Factory data reset, try again, view recovery logs only) as we need it.
11. Use volume buttons to navigate through the stock recovery menu, and the power button to select an option. Choose Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
12. This time, we can finally boot to the system with Magisk. Select Reboot system now, and immediately press the combo key (Power + Volume Up) to recovery. After seeing the bootloader warning screen (first screen), release all buttons so it can boot to the system.
13. The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots. This is completely normal and done by design.
14. After the device is booted up, done the usual initial setup. The following steps will need an internet connection.
15. I have manually installed the APK , downloaded in step 2 and continued to the next step. The app would be a stub and it shall automatically upgrade to the full Magisk Manager when you open it.
16. Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
17. As this is a new device from 2019 with System-as-Root and Android 9.0 Magisk must be installed to the recovery partition. Everytime you reboot you must press the key combination for booting from the recovery partition. ( Vol Up + Power) but in my case it is always booting to Magisk.
Theory: Since some devices no longer use ramdisk in boot images, Magisk has no choice but to be installed in the recovery partition. For these devices, you will have to boot to recovery every time if you want Magisk. Since both Magisk and recovery lives in the same partition, what you actually end up getting when you choose to boot to recovery will be determined by how long you press volume up.
After installing Magisk in recovery:
• (Powering up normally) → (System with NO Magisk) or if required reboot phone once OS is loaded
• (OEM Recovery Key Combo) → (Splash screen) → (Release all buttons) → (System with Magisk)
• (OEM Recovery Key Combo) → (Splash screen) → (Keep pressing volume up) → (Actual recovery)
In my case (for my version of firmware) once magisk system is booted as above , every time it is loading magiskpatched system if shutdown is used (while charger is not connected ), but if we use reboot it is rebooting to Stock system- further, if we shutdown while charger is connected it is will shutting down and start charging with charging animation (means if we press power button it will boot to stock system) great advantage as stock (partially rooted?) also can be booted when required.
Additional Info
• Magisk actually patches 3 partitions on your device:
o vbmeta: replace with empty vbmeta image to disable partition verification
o boot: remove the signature of the image to prevent soft bricks
o recovery: this is where Magisk is actually installed
• Never, ever try to restore either of the 3 images mentioned back to stock! You can easily brick your device by doing so, and the only way out is to do full Odin restore following with factory reset. Just don’t do it.
• If you want to upgrade your device, never flash the stock AP tar file with the reasons mentioned above. Always pre-patch the firmware before flashing in Odin.
• If you don’t need to patch the full firmware, you can manually create a tar file with at least vbmeta.img, boot.img, and recovery.img to let Magisk Manager patch your images in the proper way.
Release Keys ( P&V+) for System with Magisk
Keep pressing volume up for Actual recovery
IV. Splash screen and warning screen change
1. Download the correct firmware of your Samsung
2. Unzip the firmware files with an extractor (winrar, etc)
3. Open the BL file WITH 7-ZIP EXTRACTOR (example) BL
4. BL_P200ZHU2ASH2_CL16717766_QB25581052_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5
5. Extract the param.bin.lz4 file WITH 7-ZIP EXTRACTOR
6. Open the param.bin.lz4 file WITH 7-ZIP EXTRACTOR and extract the param.bin file
7. Extract param.bin WITH 7-ZIP EXTRACTOR. All images are extracted in a folder.
8. edit logo.jpg and svb_orange.jpg or any other file suitably
9. select all files(not folder) and right click and select 7-Zip ZS Add archive > select archive format tar>ok to get param.bin.tar
10. Close 7-zip ZS, now change the name of above file from param.bin.tar to param.bin.
11. Right click on above param.bin select 7zip ZS > add archive…> select select archive format tar>ok to get param.bin.tar again
12. Change its name to BL_param.bin_only_to_change_logo (just to remind it is BL) Now we have the param.tar file ready for ODIN.
13. Open ODIN 3.13.3, start your phone in download mode, load the param.bin.tar file in the BL section and click on start.
Note: At the end of the flashing with ODIN the phone restarts showing the modified image, but it starts in recovery mode, you just have to accept restarting the phone, and it will start normally without losing data or the configuration of your Samsung Tab A P200
V. Auto Boot Charger connected once charged to more than 5 %
1. This is a bonus, if magisk is in effective condition, it will auto boot when charger is connected.
i.e. If it boots on auto when charger is connected that means that the sytem is magisk patched
(no need to edit lpm, however if we modify lpm, phone will hang at power symbol screen in non-magisk mode –to reset it, remove charger connection , press power+VolUp+VolDown simultaneously still phone restarts )
VI. Auto shutdown on 3 hours idle
1. Install Automate app
2. Import file
“Boot to on and Auto Shutdown by 3hr idle (reset by Foreground GMusicFMusicPAmp or Charge or 11 min on) V8.flo”
3. At automate settings select Run on System start up
3. Start flow
VII. Auto stop charging at preset max and restart charging preset min shutdown phone at preset battery low
1. Install latest AccA 1.0.23 app from github and connect to internet
(older beta app was changing battery % with every booting , showing fast draining without any actual drain etc, if charger is connected instead of rising battery level , it is showing as decreasing , i.e. battery sync , ghost effect issues)
Or
If above does not work uninstall AccA and connect to internet , open magisk manager >options>downloads>search for acc >install Advanced Charging Controller 2019.7.21-r1 (201907211) > install > rebotot)
Or if above is also not working properly please use battery charge limit v1.1.1 from play store (it will not have all options of AccA.
2. Configure as required like max charge 65 , re charging start level at 35 % shutdown at 5 % etc by editing config.txt file at root>data>adb>acc-data> capacity= 5, 101, 35-65 (101 not to stop intermittently between 35-65 % charging) and save
Now one can connect phone always to power source without wearing out Battery.
It my experince only and thanks and regards to all who contributed on respective sections / fields.

hi,
thx for the comprehensive instruction.
I have successfully rooting my sm-p205
I have 2 questions if u pls help me :
1. I want root my sm-p205 because I want to use tincore keymapper. but although now I have successfully rooted it, it seems that I have to set the selinux to permissive.
I have tried all I've found, from using selinuxmodechanger, selinuxswitch, or even using terminal with su 0 setenforce 0, and all not working. that selinux still enforcing.
can u pls help me how to change the selinux ?
2. if I couldnt change the selinux, than it's no use for me to still on root. Is there anyway to go back to original stock firmware and unroot ? because I read on the last instruction of magisk that I may not flash it again with usual ap file that it may make it brick ?
thx

Any custom ROM available for this tablet? I can't find one anywhere. Thanks

I would like to thank PBRP, Teamwin for their amazing work!
As usual, I am not responsible for damage to your device, you, the user is choosing to make these modifications.
Your device's warranty is VOID if this procedure is followed, Proceed at your own caution!
With the new update of Android 10 for our device SM-M305[F] / M305[M], Samsung reimplemented RMM and called it KG(KnoxGuard), there is confusion in the device community on how to install TWRP and root device.
Follow these updated instructions to get PBRP working with Latest Stock Firmware.
This thread will be updated regularly.
STRONGLY ADVICE TO BACKUP DATA.
Steps to get PBRP working with stock firmware
First of all flash completely stock firmware, you can always root with Magisk later.
If you are rooted and have PBRP installed already and you are not on Latest Firmware mentioned above then flash latest firmware.
Select BL, AP, CP, CSC (Use HOME_CSC).
Never only flash AP, will cause your /data to shrink.
Once you're updated to latest firmware mentioned above, make sure you unlock your bootloader.
Go into Settings>Software Info>Tap build number seven times.
Go into Settings>Developer Options>OEM Unlock & enable it.
It will prompt you with password/pin confirming to unlock bootloader. Device will reboot and wipe itself.
Setup device once it reboots and again enable developer options and see OEM unlock to be enabled and togglable.
Next enable USB debugging in Settings>Developer Options>USB Debugging.
Open up ADB/FASTBOOT Utility on your computer and connect your device with USB C cable.
Type in following commands without the quotations.
1."adb reboot download" ; reboots your device into Download mode, can flash device via Odin Downloader(Windows) or Heimdall Utility(Linux)
2.Download the attached PBRP.tar if you're using Odin or PBRP.img if you're using Heimdall to flash.
3.Flash the TWRP recovery by
ODIN:-
Clicking AP in Odin and make sure the Repartition and Auto Reboot boxes are UNTICKED/NOT SELECTED.
Click Start at bottom.
Heimdall:-
Open up a terminal window in the directory where twrp.img is downloaded.
Type in heimdall flash --RECOVERY pbrp.img --no-reboot
4.Once flash is complete, press Volume Down+Power Button to shutdown and as soon as screen is black IMMEDIATELY PRESS AND HOLD VOLUME UP+POWER Button and let go of Power button when you see samsung logo, continue holding Volume Up until device boots into TWRP.
5.Once device boots into PBRP, swipe to allow modifications and then Click Wipe>Format Data>type in "yes". This will format everything and reset the device.
6.Go into Wipe>Advanced Wipe>Tick only Cache and swipe to wipe it.
7.Reboot back into recovery by Reboot>Recovery>Do not Install.
8.Once rebooted back into PBRP, transfer the attached zip to phone Internal or SDcard, DO NOT RENAME THE ZIP.
9.Flash the zip by, Install > Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip, swipe to flash it.
10.Wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot into system by, Reboot > System > Do not install.
11.Device will boot into Android, wait patiently for about 15mins.
12.Once device boots, setup as usual, you will need internet.
13.Voila! You have successfully installed PBRP alongside Stock firmware.

hi, does this work with September 2021 patch.?
I have rooted my phone and interested to replace this with already flashed twrp since someone said PBRP has disable dm-verity feature?

[HOWTO]/[ROM] [UNOFFCIAL] How to Flash Lineage OS 19.0

Here is a quick how-to guide to flash LineageOS 19.0 to the A51​
Disclaimer: I am not the maintainer of any of the files I link to here. I just wanted to share my experience to make the process of Flashing los19 to the a51 easier for others.
Prerequisites:
1. Unlocked Bootloader
This step is crucial. You need to unlock the bootloader of the A51 before trying any of this. If not, you are likely to brick your device.​1.1. Unlock developer mode by standard procedure: Settings > Info > Tab 7 times on build number​1.2. Enable USB debugging in Developer Options​1.3. Enable OEM unlocking in Developer Options -> To see OEM unlock option I needed to connect to my WIFI, then set the phone date manually to March 7th 2019. Only then the OEM unlock option became visible in Developer Options. Yes, this is super dumb and inconvenient...​1.4 After triggering OEM unlock option shutdown your phone.​1.5 Enter Download mode by: Pressing Volume+ and Volume - while at the same time plugging in the USB cable that is already in your PC.​1.6. To finally unlock bootloader, you will see a green screen on which you need to press Vol + for some time. THIS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. It will also erase all data on your phone!​1.7 After reboot repeat steps 1.1. - 1.5. again. This time you can actually enter download mode by pressing Vol + shortly on the green screen.​
2. Flash Twrp
You can now flash TWRP via Odin. The TWRP img I used is here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/0h14t0263oujhna/TWRP-11-3.6.1-a51-20220321-1406-hotfix.tar/file. I flashed it as AP. Make sure to uncheck Auto reboot before flashing.​When flashing is complete hold Vol - and Power until reboot.​Immediately when rebooting hold Vol + and Power until Samsung logo appears, then let Power go but hold Vol + to enter TWRP.​
3. Actual Flashing:
3.1. Necessary Files:​Make sure to load all files necessary to your SD before flashing:​ChonDoe_Flasher, Disable_Dm_Verity, Multidisabler, LOS-Imagefile, Magisk(optional)​​As for the LOS Image I used this file here, which already includes gapps:​lineage-19.0-20220211-UNOFFICIAL-treble_arm64_bgS-vndklite.img​​If you don't want gapps pick an image that says "BvS" instead of "bgs"​​3.2. You need to move your LOS-Image to the same folder as ChonDoe_Flasher and rename the file to "system.img"​
3.3 Flashing Sequence:
In TWRP Follow this sequence:
3.3.1. Wipe data, dalvik, cache​3.3.2. flash disable_dm_verity​3.3.3. flash multidisabler​3.3.4. Wipe internal storage (Backup might be advisable, if you didn't format data anyways)​3.3.5. reboot recovery​3.3.6. flash chondone with lineage-19.0-20220211-UNOFFICIAL-treble_arm64_bgS-vndklite.img in the same folder renamed to system.mg​3.3.7. Wipe data​3.3.8. Reboot​
That should be it. First startup takes some time, your phone should boot to LOS 19.
4. Anger Management
If you softbrick your device you can try to go back to stock rom by accessing download mode and flashing it via Odin. Will take some fiddling around with the button combinations.
If you hardbrick your device don't hold me responsible and good luck to you!
Thanks to
Kyau Sana, Vadim Kupriyanov, Knoyan GTR-X and Sara Lins and other, from the telegram-group, who helped me figure out the process.

Lineage 19 flash worked but after flashing my TWRP recovery bootloops (flashing twrp logo).
TWRP that loops is twrp-a51-3.5.0_10-1_ianmacd.
Do you have a working TWRP for this version of Lineage ?
Tried TWRP v3.6.1 A51 tree but it doesn't work and boots into download mode with "DT Entry not found / DT Load Failed / VB Meta sign errors"

Nope TWRP does not work. When using the one you linked (as all other 3.6.1 ones) it just jumps back to download mode with DT Entry not found & VBMeta not signed errors.

ALL sensors ok ?
Fingerprint ok ? In this ROM

Sorry to hear mate. Unfortunately I cannot hell you solve this issue. There is a telegram channel for custom roms on the A51 with many motivated people. One of them might have the answer you need!
See: https://t.me/samsunga51
If you find it, please post it, so others can profit from it. With your agreement I would also like to add info about the solution - should you find it - to my initial post.

Don't know about fingerprint as I do not want to provide biometric data to my phone. Maybe someone else using the ROM can answer this; Or you, if you decide to flash it post your results.
Apart from that I have not had any problems with the ROM apart from the following:
-The resulotion of the native lineage camera app is not satisfactory. When I find an app that works better, I'll let you know.
- Restarting the phone after empty battery requires a soft reset sometimes (power+vol -)
-> A solution to this problem might be given in this post. Will try it later.

Thank you, @DerTopher , but unfortunately the link to your LOS file does not work any more. How do I get the file now?

THIS GUIDE ONLY WORKS ON ANDROID 12!!!

I have concluded all my experiments, and now I can confirm that the "twrp-a51-3.5.0_10-1_ianmacd.tar" on this website only works for Android 10 as instructed by Admin. This does not for Android 11. For Android 11 you have to flash a different file called "Twrp+vbmeta_A11.tar".

FAQ
Q: Can i use this recovery with other firmware then mentioned in compatibility?
A: Only with same Android version or Rollback protection might kick in and you won't be able to pass the lockscreen.
Q: Where do i get vbmeta.img?
A: From here, download the one you need according to install instructions.
Q: TWRP can't mount data partition, what to do?
A: Make sure you formatted data partition.
Q: Phone is not booting even after 20 minutes
A: Try to reboot. If still not booting, make sure you flashed multidisabler zip / formatted data partition.
Q: How to format data partition?
A:
Q: Phone is showing only Samsung logo
A: Try to reboot. If still not booting, consider installing an older TWRP build or a more recent firmware. If you still don't succeed, post here some details about your device and previous firmware and we might be able to help.
Q: Why do i need to format data partition?
A: Because old firmware encrypted your data partition and new rom can't decrypt and use that content / root needs access to data partition to place misc files / phone not booting after flashing root until data partition gets formatted.

Updated first post with official pages from twrp.me, but since the builds are not up yet, i posted latest test builds in post #2.

Can you attach a screenshot of Odin and eventually tell me if you see anything in particular changing on phone screen? It should throw an error or something below the usual download mode lines. A pic of phone screen would be nice but i'd assume it's your only phone..

I installed twrp but it seems that it does not read the internal storage.

And how to flash the multidisabler? it seems that everything is encrypted and is impossible to locate it in twrp?

I found it!
1. enter into TWRP (after flashing twrp.tar and Vbmeta.tar via odin), format data and reboot again in TWRP
2. Being in TWRP, transfer from PC to your phone multidisabler.zip and magisk zip.
3. flash them both
4. reboot system
That is all!

Hello! What can be done to remove encryption from TWRP? I have flashed disabler but it still continues to encrypt. I tried formatting data from twrp, changing file system to EXT4 and back to EXT2 but with no result so far. any help?

I'm still trying to find the issue, for whatever reason multidisabler needs a second flash to work as far as i seen on my device. So for now please flash multidisabler 2 times in a row, until i find a better solution to this.

Thank You very much. It worked!

A big thank you, it works fine.

hey.
i did everything from this guide, and i got root access+twrp installed.
the problem that i am facing, is that i canot install anything from twrp, due to insufficient space.
the system size that twrp is reading is only 8384kb, so every installation of gapps is failed.
i tried to wipe ,format data, and changing the file system, but nothing helped.
please give me an idea how to solve it.
thanks.

Good day
Does this work for Android 13 One UI 5.1?
