[HELP] "Verification failed" after rooting with magisk via twrp. SM-J730F - Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers

I've been trying whole day to root SM-J730F... I just recently rooted other samsung with magisk but rooting SM-J730F is turning into a nightmare...
Model is SM-J730F/DS (country UK) but after bricking I had to install SM-J730F (country Luxemburg). I tested several twrps they all performed pretty much the same, this one I have installed now.
Then I copied Magisk-v16.0.zip to my microSD (only way I managed to solve 0MB storage problem), installed magisk via twrp, I already had OS installed so I rebooted to system but after samsung logo loaded I got "Verification failed" . It just keeps looping when reset device is clicked and the only options is to unbrick it via odin and get to square one again...
I unbricked it at least 20 times now, I'm getting really sick of this... Got any workaround around "verification failed" or maybe some other way to root SM-J730F with magisk?

Trouble with booting after rooting, help.

Hello everyone, I went to root my phone today, I used a Youtube tutorial with the exact links/downloads given. Followed the steps but my device is having trouble rebooting, it is just stuck on the Samsung logo flashing and I'm not too sure what to do. Also when it boots up I get the error message in the top left of my screen saying "Recovery Is Not Seandroid Enforcing", hopefully that helps.
Thanks.

Hard to help if you do not write in detail. Such as phone type, links you have used, etc etc

You need to flash SuperSU manually.
1. Flash TWRP
2. Format data
3. Flash SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip
http://download.chainfire.eu/1021/SuperSU/SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip
You simply brick your phone. You need to know that there is not Chainfire-AUTO-Root for Nougat, so you need first flash Stock FIRMWARE from Sammobile, then flash TWRP and flash SuperSU
Or you can flash many of 100 roms with prerooted supersu and busybox.
Hi there,
After upgrading my S7 Edge G935F to stock version xxu1dqd7 (with latest May 2017 upgrades) I had to install TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-hero2lte.img) again.
Unfortunately this change will NOT recognise my pattern lock now! I had to re-install the stock image (DBT-G935FXXU1DQEF-20170523093738 with ODIN) using the HOME_CSC file to hold my data.
This re-installation brought me back to the game, but without TWRP and hope for root, but the pattern pin (the same) is now working...
Update 1
Installing TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-hero2lte.img) over the new stock image (DBT-G935FXXU1DQEF-20170523093738 with ODIN) without having the pattern lock enabled feature during start will result in stuck on
the samsung title.
Update 2
I had to repeat the step above (stock firmware), so stay now without root.
Will check later with other stock versions
>It seems you didn't format the data partition or dm-verity was not installed. Happened to me, won't boot if >anything is altered like when installing a custom recovery.
Yes, I did it with and without dm-verity, All 3 options,
TWRP (ok, but pattern lock will not recognized)
TWRP + supersu (2.82) (stuck on the samsung logo)
TWRP + supersu (2.82) + dm-verity (stuck on the samsung logo)
Yes, I didn'T format the data partition. Didn't want to lose my data ( Never had a problem to upgrade stock roms on my old S4 and root after).
Before the stock upgrade, I run with the Jan 2017 patch level (I bought this 2 days ago) and was able to root with the above method.
Today I wanted to jump the the latest stock version but run in trouble then.
Update 3
Downgrading to Stockrom from 2017-Jan-30 Germany 7 G935FXXU1DQB3 G935FDBT1DQA8 is not an option (anymore), The system boot up but with lot of errors and it's unresponsable and not usable.
Upgade then to the April patch status (2017-Apr-17 Germany 7 G935FXXU1DQD7 G935FDBT1DQD1) brought me back to operational,
but TWRP + supersu (2.82) + dm-verity (stuck on the samsung logo).
Will try it now with the Februar patch version
Downgrade to the Feb patch status (2017-Feb-23 Germany 7 G935FXXU1DQBX G935FOXJ1DQB2) had the same resut like the Jan version - not usable.
I'll give up now and install the April version without TWRP.
I need root to restore my apps AND data with Titanium Pro.

With the TWRP + supersu root method, no matter what 7.0 stock ROM you use, you will not succeed before you disable boot pin and format data. You can restore data after rooting.
So start with the latest stock ROM that is working 100% for you, flash twrp, format data, flash supersu, and it should work. You have to format data because root and stock rom currently does not work with encryption.
Or even simpler, use the new cf autoroot, however it seems you still have to format data.
I had high hopes that the new cf autoroot nougat binary would work with encryption, but alas it seems it doesnt, at least I had the same wrong pin code at boot issue as with twrp. I havent had time to test it, nor to format data and root, so I am currently not rooted.

Thank you doclorenzo.
I had success with the latest stock version (xxu1dqd7) and your recomendation to format data in TWRP.
In short: Boot in Download mode, Install TWRP via Odin, Boot into TWRP - format data, supersu (2.82) + dm-verity
and then restore all data. Unfortunately it requires lot of time (at least 4 hrs to restore the apps + more for fine tuning)
Thank you and hope to have a better way with the next stock update and TWRP

HELP only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed

Hi guys today i tried to root my device with twrp and magisk. After flashed magisk from twrp, it said i should format the phone and i did. Then the problem happened. I tried flash stock rom from odin but it failed every time. How can i solve this problem?
device G950FD
when rooting, oem setting was on.
Help error samsung (only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed)
help me, I wanted to root on my j5 prime SM-G570M phone and first was giving trouble to install twrp (remembering that the device is under warranty) until I finally succeeded. I put the zip file to do the ROOT and it worked. When I rebooted the device appeared a message saying that the android system could have been violated, had to restart. When I rebooted the device gave this error (only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed). He calls and does not leave this text in red.
Please help me, I'm desperate. I searched a lot and did not find the answer. I only read answers that maybe I have to wait 7 days. But I'm not sure

HELP! S8 won't boot up!

I've messed everything up and now I'm devastated!
My S8 stucks at the very first screen (where it says: SAMSUNG GALAXY S8 - powered by android). It doesn't boot further this very specific screen. I have tried to update Magisk and Magisk Manager but only Magisk Manager seems to get updated successfully while the app suddenly says that the latest version of Magisk Manager required Magisk V19.XX hence I've tried to install it via TWRP. According to log screen, I've managed to install magisk via TWRP but after booting up, I opened Magisk Manager where it now says that Magisk isn't installed. I therefore boot into TWRP and tried to fix it since some apps of mine that required root access wasn't working anymore. So, I thought I must have lost root access. I once again boot into recovery, I uninstalled magisk and install an older version of magisk and magisk manager and also the no_verity patch. After that my Galaxy S8 won't boot up. It just stucks at the very first screen. My S8 (international version) is still on Nougat stock samsung firmware and I can enter TWRP but the phone remains freeze and stubbornly refused to boot up.
I'm quite devastated and I hope you guys can help me fix this issue!
Thank you!
Hi, well sorry if I am stating the obvious but I would format and install one of the many custom roms available...

Are there any solutions other than flashing a custom rom? Meanwhile, I have managed to flash Android 9 via ODIN and have TWRP installed but it won't boot up and stucks at the very first booting screens.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Have you tried just flashing stock rom only to see if it boots up. You may have to do a clean install.
Problem sounds like you haven't decrypted phone and flashed no verity zip file.
You won't need to flash a custom rom to fix this.
As for magisk have a look through this very helpful guide for installs and troubleshooting.

I've managed to solve this issue by myself. But still, thank you so much! It's the thought that counts ? And yes, I've figured out that I haven't decrypt my S8. But everything is absolutely fine now and I feel extremely relieved. It took me 1 day to fix this major issue and I've encountered lots of difficulties while trying to fix this like bootloops, system won't boot up and managed to stuck at the very first booting screen again and the phone boot past the first booting screen and stucks at the second booting screen, and also bootloader error and stuffs like where realization hit me that I can't restore my nandroid backup while still on Nougat because after restoring it won't boot up. I therefore managed to flash Android 9 and twrp. My S8 is now on Android Pie with custom recovery and rooted (via Magisk).

SM-T380 Stock Image Files

I just upgraded to Pie on my SM-T380 and am now running into an issue after trying to re-root the tab.
I had previously rooted the tab using TWRP and Magisk and didn't have any problems except that I could not update Magisk since every time I went to TWRP I could not mount data, etc. I did an upgrade from Oreo to Pie today and it appeared to work without problems. I then tried re-rooting following the instructions here SM-T380 Rooting Guide but now only get an error screen when booting up (Security Error...) stating that "Only official released binaries are allowed." I can't boot into recovery and I've tried to reflash TWRP and get a FAIL in Odin every time.
I've tried to find the stock images to just reflash everything through Odin but am unsure which is the right image file (https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-tab-a-2017/firmware/#SM-T380, I'm in the US). Can someone point me in the right direction?
Appreciate any help!
I found firmware for my T280 at this website https://samfrew.com/

Lost root access and can't get it back via Magisk. Help!

Galaxy S8 Exynos [SM-G950FD] Android Oreo 8.0.0
Hello. it's my first time posting here. So I've had a successful attempt at flashing TWRP and Magisk into my phone. Today I accidentally plugged in my charger while it was in the process of rebooting, so it entered my device into kind of a bootloop. I solved this by going into Download Mode and pressing 'Cancel', which prompted my device to successfully reboot and work again.
The problem is that I've somehow lost my root. None of my apps can get root access, CPU-Z says no root available, and Magisk Manager said "Magisk is not installed". Idk how I got to this because yesterday all was working, I assume it's because I got a bootloop or went into Download Mode.
I tried to install the official Magisk ZIP file from the Manager, go into recovery mode, and flash it via TWRP. Unfortunately this didn't work. This is the only solution I can come up with besides reflashing Stock and having to flash Magisk again and wipe all my current data. If anyone has any suggestions please comment down below as I'm kinda stuck rn. They would be greatly appreaciated!
