[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] lizthe:
i've tried to install CWR but i could not installa supersu becouse the operation get stucked on "cwm recovery stops to creating paths"

i've read lot of posts and maybe i undestood partially the question

the latest release of samsung stock firmware (i have also android 8) have so many "security tools" this is why at begging i could not see the flashed recovery... i had to not to reboot the phone ... then i did it ...but after some reboots ..again the stock recovery (in english is rebirth again)

so all the point to "flash and reflash" also the second patch is maybe becouse of that

and this is the same reason becouse we must format all datas ?!?! it wuold be intresting if it was specified in the main post

anyway just wondering if all this is necessary for gain only root permissions ,but i think the answer is yes becouse when i try to flash supersu ..the reason that it fails is becouse of that... but i am still not sure of it.

1) in the instructions here in the post noone tells that i have to avoid to boot the phone after flashing twrp (if i reboot it i loose the flashed recovery)

2) when i try to flash supersu i receive an error on signature (maybe is the question of encypted partitions after last august samsung update)

3) should i format before tring to flash supersu?!

Seamless rooting of Galaxy A5 2017

Dear experts,

I need to root my Galaxy A5 2017 in such a way that the end-user does not notice any difference between how the device used to be/work before the rooting and after, meaning that no additional applications (such as SuperSU, or similar) are installed and the boot animation and the general look and feel of the device stays the exactly the same.

What procedure do you recommend to achieve this?

Thank you for your advice

While watching a video on YT put 2 fingers on the screen at the same time and then spread them outwards. Example: http://www.mysmartphonetutor.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/250px-Gestures_Unpinch.png

Only problem is that the video will be zoomed into/stretched to fit the 18:9 screen ratio so, if there's subtitles on the video for example, only part of the subs (like the top part) will show.

I am rooted withe TWRP recovery, but the new phone I am using is an S5 on 6.0 and baseband is qd1. Are roms specific to the baseband? It has been a couple years since I have messed with custom roms.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No-Lags:
Hi all...

I have a Micro SDCard under the brand "Sandisk Ultra", class 10 which is formatted fat32 (now I format again to ExFat) size 32Gb.

My device is S4-i9500 using MBP-v5-PF1 ROM. Now I'm using recovery with TWRP version 3.1.1.

So my problem here is that my Micro SDCard is not read through TWRP (Micro SDCard = 0 mb). But here, when I turn on my device, I can see that my Micro SDCard is read through the ES Explorer app. Strangely again, when I tried to insert Micro SDCard class 4, it was read in TWRP, either formatted fat32 or ExFat. So I really need an explanation of where the problem lies? Thank you for your help.

Regards.

So my problem lies in forgetting to change the partition type. It turned out that Micro SDCard mine is still logical type, should be changed to

Primary

. That is all. So my problem is over. :victory:

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoonerLater:
Flashing Factory 8.1 - After ADB Reboot Bootloader: Error "Connect USB Data Cable"

GOAL: flash factory stock 8.1 image on phone purchased from Swappa. Why? To eliminate any possibility of any lingering software (e.g. Cerberus) that might have been installed by the previous owner.

PROBLEM: after issuing command ADB Reboot Bootloader at Windows terminal, the phone boots in to bootloader mode, but says, Connect USB Data Cable despite the fact that it is, in fact connected to my Win10 computer via a USB cable (the very same one that forced the phone to reboot into bootloader mode).

[IMG="Bootloader screen"]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l100/graystrickland/IMG_20171218_104559-2_zpsiejoqgud.jpg[/IMG]

Of course, I do notice that the above screen says, device is LOCKED, but my belief is that the bootloader on this phone is UNlocked. Why? Two reasons. (1) Because that's the way it was described in the Swappa listing. (2) the Developer Options \ OEM unlocking is set to "allow the bootloader to be unlocked."

[IMG="Develop Options - OEM Unlocking"]http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l100/graystrickland/IMG_20171218_105440_zpslkuyzp55.jpg[/IMG]

By the way, if (while the phone is in bootloader mode) I run the flash-all.bat script, I get these errors:

With the phone in normal mode (booted up normally), and then run ADB devices the system returns

so I know that the computer and phone are talking. Immediately after that, if I try to run the same (flash-all.bat) command when the phone is not in bootloader mode, I get back waiting for any device as though computer and phone cannot communicate.

I am so confused. :cyclops:

What am I doing wrong?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoonerLater:
UPDATE:

I just realized that I needed to issue the command fastboot flashing unlock at a Windows terminal prompt, then select (on the phone) to unlock the bootloader.

Furthermore.... I just noticed that in the Windows Termminal, I needed to navigate to the folder containing the IMG file to be flashed before running the flash-all.bat script. Since that location wasn't in my Windows 10 computer's PATH command, the script couldn't "see" the IMG file, which explains the errors above.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoonerLater:
UPDATE # 2 - Solved

1. At windows terminal, issue command "adb devices" (to verify that computer and phone are connected).

2. At windows terminal, issue command "fastboot flashing unlock" then on phone choose the option to unlock bootloader.

3. At windows terminal, issue command adb reboot bootloader or on phone, with phone off, press power and volume-down simultaneously.

4. At windows terminal, with prompt located at the same drive and folder where the IMG you want to flash is located, run the flash-all.bat script.

5. After new OS is installed and phone reboots, then at Windows Terminal, , issue command "fastboot flashing lock" then on phone choose the option to re-lock bootloader. This will wipe the phone, reinstall the OS and reboot the phone.

There may be (probably are) smarter and better ways to skin this cat. If so, I hope that someone smarter than me will add that in the comments to help anyone who reads this thread.

Do u have the nougat boot.img? I know I didn't put the wrong system img up. So try to flash nougat and see if it boots.
