Did anyone get rooted on us unlocked Note 20 Ultra? If you did, could you enable eSim by changing the settings in CSC?
Thanks in advance

There is a paid service for bootloader unlocks. But that's it

So its come to my attention that even though I got a F dual sim model in the US since its subsidized payment services and knox are preventing me from achieving oem unlock on my device.

Hi,
I have a silly question, I am very familiar with rooting using Magisk. I am also familiar with flashing custom rom, but not using any Samsung official rom.
If I would unlock the bootloader + root as indicated, how do we manage the rom updates from Samsung? (I see there are hardly any custom roms now for those Note 20 devices).
Does it still work to update when any update is made available by Samsung? Is there any manual actions required? etc...

No. You have to manually update and reroot. It's been like that since day 1 you can never update and be rooted

Wouldn't the Part B work on a Snapdragon after having the bootloader unlocked anyway?

Hi everyone
I have fully root on my N980F exynos.
Tutorial:
- https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-20-ultra/how-to/guide-how-to-root-n20-ultra-t4147023 . If you after unlocking bootloader DON NOT have OEM unlock grey out, do this: https://www.xda-developers.com/fix-...y-s9-samsung-galaxy-s8-samsung-galaxy-note-8/
and continuing.
I root my device, flashed everything, but can not start TWRP recovery. Reboot every time. I used stock recovery for now.

Hi Krazzieboy. I was excited when I found your thread but disappointed with the lack of success everyone seems to have had with following your process. So, I wanted to ask exactly which model number and OS are you using with the Note20 Ultra 5G and where people could go to get the firmware. This would help clarify which version/model of this phone to get if someone (such as myself) wanted to get one of these. I just got a Motorola One 5G Ace and I hate it. I'd like to go back to a Samsung phone (my previous phone was a Note 4).

How To Guide [GUIDE][ROOT][MAGISK v22.0+] Samsung Galaxy A02s SM-A025G

​This guide was made prior to there being a working custom recovery for this device. I highly recommend installing @afaneh92 TWRP in this thread and then simply flash magisk from recovery.​
I purchased this phone a few days ago for around £120 - Bargain.
I have spent a few evenings trying to obtain root - and finally managed to achieve it with Magisk
Full data wipes are required during the process (please backup first)
Knox will trip but safetynet passes and google pay working once magisk hide enabled
Based on the Samsung specific guide provided on Magisk Github - with a few minor differences.
I have uploaded all of the tools and files used to my personal onedrive folder -
Make sure your device is on the latest firmware and download the zip
- I used SamFwTool version 1.21.0 to download the BTU Firmware for SM-A025G A025GXXU1AUA3
Install Magisk apk on your device.
Extract the AP _ tar.md5 from the downloaded firmware .zip using 7zip
Transfer the AP to your device and Patch it with Magisk , then copy back to your computer.
Enable OEM Unlock and Unlock the bootloader the instructions from magisk git are below, for those that need a reminder.
Spoiler: Unlocking Bootloader
Unlocking bootloader on modern Samsung devices have some caveats:
Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
Reboot to download mode: power off your device and press the download mode key combo for your device
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader.
This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.
If you think the bootloader is fully unlocked, it is actually not! Samsung introduced VaultKeeper, meaning the bootloader will still 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 during the setup.
Enable developer options, and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and is greyed out. This means the VaultKeeper service has unleashed the bootloader.
Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode
This is where we deviate from the magisk guide... as when I flashed the magisk patched AP along with the BL CP and CSC, you get a vbmeta error and it simply reboots to stock. Magisk seems to patch the vbmeta file and I tried replacing the vbmeta with the stock version from the firmware zip but that also was fruitless.
Extract the boot.img from magisk patched AP
Extract recovery.img.lz4 and vbmeta.img.lz4 from the stock (unpatched) AP file
7zip - create a new TAR, adding only those 3 files. Boot.tar will suffice for filename
Odin 3.14.4 - uncheck auto reboot and then Flash boot.tar in the AP section (CSC, HOME CSC, CP, BL not required - as the device and download are using the latest firmware)
The next part is essential and doing it wrong will again, result in no root....
I mistakenly pressed power up and it loaded fastboot... booting direct to recovery from fastboot again, results in no root.
Hold volume down and power to reboot...
As soon as the screen turns black indicating it is rebooting let go of volume down and hold power and volume up
Release power button when you see the android logo but continue to hold volume up
Release volume up when the unlocked bootloader warning appears
Tap the power button once to skip that warning
Stock recovery should now appear
Select wipe data / factory reset
Reboot system
Setup as usual and install the magisk apk

Update 10April2021: Since doing this quite a few times, I've actually had most success with Magisk 22.0 (I initially went with Canary - but stock is less hit and miss and if you do it exactly like the steps above you will get root.
Update:
Have just updated to magisk 22003 directly within magisk app - no issues to report so far
thank you so much for the guide, i found nothing from google
can i unroot after modify this device with magisk canary ??

No problem at all, It was the same position I was in so had to post as it was painful process - needed it documented for myself to follow in future too lol
yes - it's very easy to unroot directly in the magisk app
I successfully upgraded to the latest version 22004 from within the magisk app. No issues to report.
can this work on the tmobile version??
mines is a 025q
I am trying to use this same process on an SM-A025V (US Verizon) but I have ran into an issue. I was able to find and download firmware for my variant but I do not have the "oem unlock" option in my developer menu. Is this because I do not have the international version?

Hi i have sm-a25g As I connect with vol plus vol minus I connect usb nothing happens but charging the battery as I hold other keys, e.g. power vol plus I release power I keep vol plus the phone jumps in fastboot mode. In download mode I can only enter from adb reboot download but bypass the bootloader lock window, the manual input combinations in download mode do not work for me. Do you have any idea and can I ask for help?
Hi, I have a problem with unlocking the bootloader in SM-A025G. I wrote a comment on you tube I got a contact from you whats upp. The problem is that after selecting oem unlock and connecting the turned off phone, holding vol plus vol minus and connect usb, there is only a charging mode and it should be a download mode with the selection of vol plus to unlock the bootloader. To flash firmware, the only way to go with adb reboot download but bypass the unlock board is the download mode. Phone with European distribution binary u2 android 11

I wrote a comment on you tube I got a contact from you whats upp. The problem is that after selecting oem unlock and connecting the turned off phone, holding vol plus vol minus and connect usb, there is only a charging mode and it should be a download mode with the selection of vol plus to unlock the bootloader. To flash firmware, the only way to go with adb reboot download but bypass the unlock board is the download mode. Phone with European distribution binary u2 android 11

Question Canadian SM-A526W: Bootloader already unlocked? + Magisk install

Hi there,
I haven't found much information regarding the Canadian variant of the A52 5G yet, sorry.
I'd assume that the Canadian bootloader is already unlocked to begin with (Carrier is Koodo. I know my older Koodo Galaxy S4 I337 was never locked as well) ? I do not see the OEM Unlock option, even when I bump the date by 7 days from now on.
This would mean that I could simply proceed and patch the boot to install Magisk? Has anyone succeeded yet on the Canadian variant?
Thank you, appreciated,

This will erase your phone's data so backup first
This will trip knox and prevent alot of samsung apps working
Unlocking Bootloader
1. Enable OEM unlocking in developer options
2. Turn phone off
3. Plug a usb into pc but not phone
4. Hold vol up and down and plug usb into phone
5. Wait for green screen and follow instructions to unlock bootloader (as follows)
5.5. Long press vol up on green screen then press vol up again
Installing magisk
1. Download your firmware from the internet
2. Extract the AP tar.md5 file
3. Place file on root of phone
4. Download and install Magisk (I used Canary)
5. Make sure connected to internet
6. Open Magisk and press the top install (Manager not the app install)
7. Select Install > Select and Patch a File and select the AP file you put on the phone
8. Wait for it to patch and create a new file
9. Find the new file, usually called magisk_patched in your downloads folder, but Magisk would have said what and where on the patching screen when done
10. In Odin flash this new AP file
11. If needed reinstall Magisk app, open it and let it update
To get saftey net to pass I had to use The universal saftey net magisk module found somewhere on this site. I can find it later if needed
Those are the steps I did, hope it helps

[EXYNOS ONLY] Samsung Galaxy S10 series OneUI 4.0 Android 12 Beta Thread
[Beta Program has Start Now]
Samsung has started the beta program for the S21 Series in Korea and Germany and will be rolling out to other countries later, however the beta program for the S10 series is yet to start/even get announced. It is expected to start in the coming weeks.

There are two methods that you can use to get into recovery mode
Method 1:
1. Connect your phone to your PC (Make sure USB debugging is on).
2. Using ADB, enter the command ./adb reboot recovery
3. Wait a little and you should be in recovery mode.
Method 2:
1. Power off your device
2. Connect your device to a PC or use the AKG earphones.
3. Hold down Power+VolumeUp buttons and keep pressing them until you enter recovery mode.
How to capture the update.bin file to share with other people:
1. Download HTTP canary app https://apkgk.com/fr/com.guoshi.httpcanary
2. Open HTTP Canary app
3. Leave the app and go to the settings and Start the software update in settings by pressing "download" and don't pause it
4. Go back to canary app and start it by pressing the little circle at the bottom right, and it will grab the link for you
5. Copy the link and post it here if you wish.
This will not trip knox if done by the methods above
Don't install a beta unless you are fully aware what you are going into.
Don't install the beta if you want your phone to be stable, IT'S a BETA.
It's recommended to make a backup of your data before updating to the Android 12 Beta.
Important Notes:
-Rename the .bin file to update.zip in order to be able to flash it from recovery.
-A common mistake done by some people is that they see the file named update while its a WinRAR.zip file already, then they add another .zip making the name of the file update.zip.zip which will not be flashed successfully, So make sure you do it right.
-Updating to the beta is AT YOUR RISK, No one is responsible if anything goes wrong.
You will not receive OTAs again UNTIL you are on a firmware that gets released later for your original CSC, thats most likely not happening before the BETA is over.
Small note:
My Galaxy S10e isn't from a country that has a beta program, I manually changed the CSC to TUR, that makes me receive TUR OTA Updates but participating in the beta in the past years, needed a sim card from the country of your CSC, Meaning i need a german SIM to be able to participate, so sadly i will not be able to pull the update.zip file unfortunately, But i will try my BEST to keep the thread updated with the latest beta update.zip file (If/when someone pulls it)
Thank you
You welcome

A bit confused, if the zip would only work with the Korean SM-G970F, then what's the point of the entire thread?
according to sammyfans: Samsung confirmed that the Android 12-based One UI 4 Beta is only available in seven countries, check the list below:
South Korea
United States (For Unlocked/T-Mobile/Sprint)
Germany
India
United Kingdom (UK)
China
Poland
so if you are In one of this countries you can check the Members app. I'm from Germany and I will upload the zip when its avalible (in germany we have the SM-G973F variant)

Question Current/potential rooting situation of Xiaomi 12T Pro

Hello everyone, this is my first post here, I'm planning on buying a phone with high specs, good camera and the possibility to access root so my attention went to Xiaomi 12T Pro.
I've seen a two-weeks old post on reddit where some guy with this same phone asked for help and ultimately managed to root it using magisk, however the 12T pro has a snapdragon chipset and from my last experience (about 6 years ago) snapdragon devices can't be rooted? Maybe that guy had the normal 12 pro and got confused with the name?
Anyway I have a laptop so if there's a possibility/potential in the future to root this phone I might as well buy it.
If you want I can also link the reddit post so you can give it a look.
Thanks everyone.
Edit: thanks for the answers, when I buy this phone an root it I can let you know how it went.

I've seen a two-weeks old post on reddit where some guy with this same phone asked for help and ultimately managed to root it using magisk, however the 12T pro has a snapdragon chipset and from my last experience (about 6 years ago) snapdragon devices can't be rooted? Maybe that guy had the normal 12 pro and got confused with the name?
Anyway I have a laptop so if there's a possibility/potential in the future to root this phone I might as well buy it.
If you want I can also link the reddit post so you can give it a look.
Thanks everyone.

Just confirming: in the TWRP page, the 12T Pro is not listed as a compatible device (https://twrp.me/Devices/Xiaomi/).
Will the provided version of the TWRP work? I would like to avoid boot loops or even a hard brick.
And, would Orange Fox work too? Could you point us the correct version?
TIA.
Just did as instructed and it works. Only bummer is that twrp is in Chinese. I did google a youtube video and followed instructions to change language. So far all good.
Do OTA updates still work after rooting? Or what is the process to upgrading once rooted?

You mean "fastboot devices", as it is already in fastboot
booting to recovery ended in error for me " FAILED (Status read failed (Too many links))" which led to bootloop.
I reflashed original ROM and I will try flashing.
flashing the recovery went as sharp as possible.
I do not recommend to boot into recovery before flashing it.​

I didn't tried to boot without installing, I think there is a problem with A/B slots. On devices without B slot booting in TWRP should work as intended.

Provided version works on my device (Mi 12T Pro, Global ROM). Hardbrick is impossible if flashing TWRP in recovery partition.
I didn't found compatible Orangefox recovery
There are 3 versions of TWRP:
BOOT:
Command:
fastboot boot twrp.img
powershell
./fastboot boot twrp.img
then in Twrp go to Advanced -> flash current TWRP
REC:
Update with existing TWRP.
gold
CMD
fastboot flash recovery_ab twrp.img***
powershell
./fastboot flash recovery_ab twrp.img***
BOOT REC:
Both methods
On this thread the proposed version is REC.
***Remove lock screen security and reboot to decrypt data then install TWRP.
Reboot with the buttons combination and not with a fastboot command
Update REC
twrp-3.7.0_12-v6.5_A12-diting-skkk.img

Then reboot TWRP​
No need TWRP for Rooting
Root:
1. Find or redownload the TGZ file for your current ROM
2. Browse inside the zip file and find boot.img under the images folder
3. Copy this file to a temporary location in your PC first, and then transfer it to your phone
4. Install the desired version of Magisk app (V23?)
5. Run the app and choose Install under Magisk
6. Choose Select and Patch a File, then select the boot.img that was transferred earlier
7. A process will run and create a new .img file in the same folder where the original one was
8. Transfer the new file to your PC in the same directory where fastboot.exe is located
9. Open a command prompt window in that same directory
10. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode and connect to PC, USB2.0 port. Check for connection by running command fastboot devices.
11. Run the command fastboot flash boot_ab magiskXXXX.img
Once it's completed, run command fastboot reboot and the phone should boot and be rooted.

I would like to inform any new thinker for root possibility in this device that I was not able to hide the root by Google Pay/Wallet in this phone (ROM: 13.0.11.0 - SLFEUXM), by executing the casual procedures:
Pass SafetyNet without Magisk Hide Props Config and
How to Hide Root from Apps via Magisk DenyList [Android 13]
All other bank apps I use have no clue that I am rooted, and work flawlessly.
If you know something more I can try, I will be happy to get any help on the matter.

Maybe you have already tried this (your links don't work):
magisk/settings/hide Magisk, renaming it..
Zygisk enable/enforce exclusion list enable.
Configure exclusion list / display system apps / check those related to your problem.
Reboot.
