From Oreo Rooted to Pie Rooted - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi i've actually a S8 on Oreo base band G950FXXU4CRI1 it's rooted with TWRP installed and Magisk. I would like to upgrade to Pie especially for the Dark mode option. I would like to know what is the good process, actually my S8 do not propose any Update from the settings. Do i've to install it from TWRP ?

When rooting the device, you'll lose the OTA auto-update function. You'll need to flash a new ROM on TWRP.
It's pretty straightforward, the procedure us the same as with updating an installed ROM (however in this case it's a good idea to do a full wipe before flashing).
If you want full stock ROM, you can flash it with Odin.

OK thx so i can download my firmware from updato.com flash it after a wipe with TWRP and TWRP will stay on the device i'll just have to redo a root process after Pie upgrade, that's right ? And if i install with odin i'll lose TWRP am i right ?

Hello, I rooted my Galaxi S8 exilon with V-8.0.0./ Android Oreo whit odin v- 3.13 . want to upgrade to 9.0 Pie... someone knows how and where to do it?

How to Update to B19 or B25 from Rooted B29?

Hey guys, so I'm still pretty new at this whole android modding stuff (but I do have some background knowledge). I managed to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, and root B29. However, now I wanna upgrade up to Nougat and eventually to the newest firmware available (either B19 or B25, not sure which one yet because I've heard quite a bit about B25's lack of fastboot). Anyways, I have no idea how to get there while still retaining my custom recovery and root. I tried using Flashfire, however, since MiFavor auto-installs after it finishes downloading the OTA, I can't stop it fast enough to launch Flashfire and install it through that. Could anyone point me in the right direction (or show me a guide) that would help me get to the newest firmware? Thanks!
P.S: This is slightly unrelated, but I was wondering, would I have to flash a custom bootloader+modem if I choose to flash a stock update through TWRP? I heard that if you choose to upgrade to a newer generation of android (i.e: Marshmallow to Nougat) through a custom recovery, that you'd have to flash an updated version of the bootloader+modem as well, but the thing is I'm planning on staying on MiFavor, so I'm not sure if it'd be necessary.

Help on how to root my j500m

The problem is this:
I want to root my j500m with magisk via twrp but I would like to know if I can root with my version of android 5.1.1 if there is no problem, or I have to upgrade to 6.0.1 to do the process?
Another thing, that when I install the twrp on my device with android 5.1.1 loads everything well but at the time of powering it clears the operating system of the phone and does not turn on completely, it only stays in the samsung logo and I have to flash the rom of stock to solve it but the recovery returns to stock. The version of the recovery that was installed was 3.0.0-0. I would like to know if it is because I am doing it with android lollipop and I should do it in marshmallow or no matter what version of android you have. Thank you.
use this twrp.and first install Magik apk and flash lastest magisk. zip https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development/recovery-recovery-pro-galaxy-j5-2015-t3728264
And there's no need to update to Android 6 for root
Thanks, but now I have another problem, I just wrote it in the last message of the forum, if you could help me.
Your twrp version is old 3.0.0.0
download this version 3.1.1.1 official

Thanks friend, I have updated to marshmallow and I have installed the recovery 3.2.1-1 with aroma support, and I have rooted with magisk, now everything is fine.
