Root s20+ - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Guides, News

Just download and extract the AP file from your correct firmware Patch the AP file with Magisk Connect the phone to your computer and transfer all the firmware files including the patched AP file Then put all the files in the correct slots on odin Substitute the AP file With the patched file Make sure that you uncheck auto reboot And proceed to Flash that's it that's all you have to do you don't even have to hold any special buttons on this model to try to boots to magic rooted just let it boot up regularly that's how easy this model is I already love it
Also...thanks to geiti94 if you want to flash TWRP for a custom recovery you can go here https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...y-twrp-galaxy-s20-s20-s20-ultra-t4149911/amp/ and its easy as load his version of twrp and flash it from the ap slot

I'm guessing this is for the versions not on US carriers such as US Cellular or Verizon?

(Potential) Root for Samsung J330L (Korean variant)

This is a guide to an untested yet possible method of rooting the Samsung J330L
So far I have been able to install Clockwork mod successfully and wanted to share my findings.
(links at the end of page)
NOTE: I take no credit for creating/editing the files listed below
*IF you follow this guide you may void your warranty*
*I am not responsible or liable for any damages while following or attempting to follow this guide*
The Korean variant of the J3 is relatively easy to install CWM.
You first must install, as with any Samsung device, Odin.
You should be able to download the latest Odin from there web page below
Secondly you need a 2017 firmware set for the j330L both to do the installation and to flash if anything goes wrong.
After installing Odin and extracting the .tar files you will need to put you phone in download mode by pressing and holding the home vol- and power keys
when you get a blue screen hit vol+. You should be in download mode.
Connect your phone to your computer and open Odin. You will need to install the BL AP CP and CSC files. (For the CSC file use the HOME file)
reboot and boot back into download mode
Flash the recovery.tar in the AP slot.
Reboot to recovery by holding down Home power and vol+
----Past this point i have had no success flashing magisk or super SU so I am currently working on flashing a ROM for root(causes boot loop)

Your device should be able to rooted using TWRP or use Magisk manager to root the boot image.

True but at the time of posting TWRP causes boot loop. I haven't tried the TWRP version that you posted tho. I will give it a shot.
Ok After much testing i have successfully rooted the damn thing with the twrp installation above and the latest Super User but installing magisk or installing a custom rom now causes bootloop. This damned phone is irritating AF but root does work.... now i need to find out how remove my kernel so i can base a rom off it

[Q] Samsung S7 Edge (g935f) with both Custom binary and dm-verity error

Hello to everybody.
like the title of the thread suggests i have a Samsung S7 Edge (g935f) that isn't able to boot anymore. For what I remember I rooted this phone in 2017, using cf autoroot with Odin, but never installed some other custom rom.
Friday i needed to install upgrades and make a big mistake, I've disabled the unlock oem option. Now the device don't boot anymore, showing the Custom binary blocked by FRP lock when try to boot and even when is in charge, and in recovery mode you can see dm-variety verification failed... error.
I've tried to flash a new stock firmware, downloaded using the Samfirm tool, with odin but stuck in NAND Wright.
I've read that with this two errors, the phone is most likely in a hard brick situation.
Some other informations: in recovery mode I have the following informations:
MMB29K.G935FXXU1BPH6
samsung/hero2ltexx/hero2lte
6.0.1/MMB29K/G935FXXU1BPH6
and at the bottom the "dm-verity" error message
in download mode:
Current binary: Custom
System status: Custom
FRP LOCK: On (that's my fault)
Hope someone can help, and thanks.
Sorry didn't read your post correctly.. since you are still on v1 bootloader
Follow this link :
https://www.techzai.com/fix-drk-device-root-key-for-samsung-galaxy-phones/amp/
In short, extract AP and copy boot.img and system.img to new folder, then rename boot.img to recovery.img and repack AP using only these 2 files (system.img and renamed recovery.img) or maybe repack system+renamed recovery+boot which means we flash boot.img 2 times.. if using only system and renamed recovery doesn't work, and maybe add userdata.img too if adding boot.img doesn't work..and try flashing in official odin (if it doesnt get flashed in official odin.. use prince comsy modified odin)
(before doing this download this firmware and apply above procedure on it :
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s7-edge/firmware/SM-G935F/EUR/download/G935FXXU1BPH6/89733/ )
(Auto tar 2.0 link use to repack files to tar :
https://www.mediafire.com/file/ah20ha869prdkkc/Autotar2.0_By_FixFirmwares.com.rar/file )
Don't tell me if you detect any viruses lol, i don't own any file, just helping to get your phone working again (delete all such files after using them)
Flash bl, csc, cp as usual alongwith this modified AP, use default odin options (don't tick nand erase or any other advanced option in odin)
And dont try to boot into recovery as there will be no recovery .. if lucky .. you will be able to boot phone to go in settings and enable oem unlock option.. if unlucky you will brick your phone even further like efs partition further damage/ nv data corruption (which could be fixed by a box)
So i told you the risks, i will not be responsible for anymore damage.
Note : don't update to newest/latest firmwares or higher bootloader (because it makes rooting and fixing device very difficult as firmware with a higher bootloader version cannot be downgraded to lower bootloader version) and also your dm verity is permanently destroyed so even if you are able to fix your phone by yourself you will always need to keep oem enabled and dm verity disabled to use it.. and upgrading to latest firmware will only create more problems
Good luck ..

hard bricked sm-377w while trying to remove frp

hi all my grandson cannot remember his login info for his tablet, so i went and followed the instructions below I got to step 5 and could not get it to download recovery or turn it on.
After flashing the combo file there was a screen said factory binary but it would not load past that so i followed the steps and did a factory recover. the samsung logo came on but again it just went on to the factory binary screen. so i turn it off but would not turn back on. What can I do I have been out of the scene for a bit, I remember with the note 3 and 4 you could use a download jig to force it to download mode. I tried that but nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appriciated.
I have successfully Unlocked my SM-T377W from Rogers Canada on 7.1.1
I have been Struggling for a while to Unlock the FRP from this device and finally done it
Now its unlocked and I can use whatever sim card i want also
Successfully Unlocked FRP of my SM-T377W from Rogers Canada on 7.1.1
I have successfully Unlocked my SM-T377W from Rogers Canada on 7.1.1 I have been Struggling for a while to Unlock the FRP from this device and finally done it Now its unlocked and I can use whatever sim card i want also So I have used these 2...
forum.xda-developers.com
So I have used these 2 files [IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE THE CORRECT COMBINATION AND CORRESPONDING STOCK], maybe you can use the same ones I have used if you do not have a choice
1- Combination "COMBINATION_OYA_FA60_T377WVLU3ARG1"
2- Stock ROM "Firmware SM-T377W T377WVLU3BRG4 [7.1.1]"
So what I have basically done,
1- Turn the device off and put the device in DOWNLOAD MODE
2- Flash the Combination Firmware to your device with Odin
3- When the device restarts and it runs the Combination firmware, turn it off again and put it in "RECOVERY MODE" not download, and in "RECOVERY MODE" do factory reset wipe and click yes then It will restart or maybe shut off
4- Turn it on again normally and it will run the Combination firmware
5- Now Turn it off again and put in "DOWNLOAD MODE" this time
6- From the Stock ROM extract the 3 files (boot, sboot and system) from inside the files of the stock ROM, you will find them inside "AP" and "BL" (cause we have BL, AP, CP, CSC), you need to use 7-zip so you can extract whats inside them
7- Create new file/archive (it will be .tar) using 7-zip with these 3 files (boot, sboot and system)
9- Flash the new file you made .tar (that has the 3 files) in the AP section in Odin.
10- Your done
