[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] bzowk:
Hey Guys -

After wanting an HTC One U12 for a while, I recently changed my mind and went with a Samsung Galaxy S9+. I LOVE it! I had wanted the U12 since HTC supports rooting, but found out that at my new job you cannot install company apps or sync with rooted phones and the apps I use are a must. Turns out most things I would have rooted for are already included with the phone. I'd still love to root if it didn't break Knox and may try in future if a reversible one every appears.

It's running the latest OEM firmware of Oreo currently. One of the features (which seems to be Samsung) is the ability to use the "Infinity Wallpapers" which come pre-installed in a few base colors and I believe one is selected by default. In Samsung's app, I also see where other live or infinity wallpapers may be downloaded and used which are just a few seconds in length.

Anyways, my question is, how can I make these live/infinity wallpapers on my own?

Do I have to use "Theme" tools to do it? So far, here's what I've found although hit roadblocks with each:

- I went to Samsung's website to see if there was PC software. From what I gathered, you have to sign up to download it and signups take place for 2 weeks starting the 3rd Wednesday of every odd month - plus - your application must be internally reviewed and approved. Hmm...

- Found this post about "themeDIY." I started getting it set up after updating my Android Studio to the latest version, but the link provided which contains the Samsung files is broken so cannot proceed :(

- Found "Samsung Theme Designer" at this link on Samsung's DEV website, but it was last updated in 2012 so doubt it is what I need

Any suggestions would be appreciated - Thanks!!

So the LG Stylo 4 is a beautiful budget smartphone and i cant find any information on it here at xda so i figured i would start a thread for people to go to and discuss getting root on this device. Anyone with any experience or if anyone thinks the root process for another lg phone might work with this phone and is willing to test out and report back let us all know.

Stylo 4

There is article that a quick Google search will turn up that claims to have step by step instructions including unlocking the bootloader of the Stylo 4 which is supposedly done with a .bin file emailed by LG after submitting IMEI number of the phone. But have yet to see any confirmations of this.

[General Questions and Answers] zimlokks:
Look, I want root as much as the next guy, but it's not happening this time. We gotta keep bugging LG/MetroPCS so the next time they release a phone it's unlockable! In my opinion root isn't as needed, although I'm missing some features like the ability to download Instagram photos, and some eye candy mods, not much is needed.

[General Questions and Answers] Rx8Driver:
I may try the old towelroot app, but i currently have a metro lmq710ms stylo 4 and it IS bootloader locked...you need a bin file that's derived from an algorithm that uses the device ID and IMEI supplied by LG to unlock the bootloader using a fastboot command. Currently, this device isn't on LG's list of approved devices for an unlock but if I'm correct the device is essentially a slimmed down spec lmg710 which means it likely uses the same bootloader. Only problem is without knowing LG's algorithm that's building the unlock.bin file we can't generate one using our device ID/IMEI combination.

I would say bug LG about it, but i fear this device isn't going to get enough people angry to get the job done! :/ which is a shame because it's a lovely budget device! Runs great! And a few root tweaks and kernel adjustments could really have it running like a flagship!
[General Questions and Answers] successnbd:
solution is on it's way
[General Questions and Answers] Rx8Driver:
Root may be possible for things like TiBu but until someone cracks the bootloader (unlikely) ROMS, Recovery, Kernels are out...

---------- Post added at 05:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 AM ----------

If someone was willing to share an official unlock.bin for a lmg710 then there's a REMOTE possibility a .bin could be built but it would be device-dependent, meaning the file would need editted for each device cuz they all have different dev id and imei's....i know there were some folks looking at it on another bl locked lg device but it's a real toughie with STRONG chances for bricking the bootloader...

The only thing i want more than root which is alot easier is the AR Stickers port from LG G7 ThinQ.. Im currently working on it with an apk tool app i can share.. Its hard to find.. Any help would be appreciated.. This phone is beast even without root.. I had a guy tell me he prefers it over the iphone 8+ cause its all screen like Galaxy S8, has wide angle camera with qlens so camera port is possible, android 8.1 and 6.2" lcd?! Best free phone i ever had.. Even got the $6 a month issurance cause I'm keeping this for awhile.. But root would be nice..

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] kurolox:
Pretty much the title. I've updated to android Oreo on my galaxy s7 (G930F, Spain Movistar) and I want to know the status of the bootloader. All I can find is people telling each other if the bootloader is locked or not, but no way to check on my device by myself. The dialing method doesn't seem to work, and it seems like there's no fastboot either, so I'm not sure what's left to check the status of the bootloader.

Besides that, I'm trying to install TWRP so I can install magisk afterwards. I've been trying to flash TWRP through odin, but it seems like it's not doing anything, hence why I think the bootloader may be locked. Any useful resource regarding TWRP and Android Oreo?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Beanvee7:
You need to get the developer options menu by tapping the build number under software info

Then under developer options is a toggle called OEM unlocking, if that's enabled your bootloader is unlocked. That's it.

Note this only applies to Exynos models, US snapdragon models (G390V/T/A/P etc) can't be unlocked. You can verify your model by booting into download mode. Anywhere can be faked if bought from an untrusted seller.

Hello Guys,

Well, I wanna downgrade my OS on my S8 Plus. Why? Battery life sucks. I have the latest update and it still drains my battery like hell... I get SOT of 3/4h at best... sometimes 5h but depends alote!

Im a heavy user and ye, Im coming from a Mate 10 Pro and I do regred it because of the battery life (only that was stronger on the Huawei). Since I don´t own money to go to the P20 Pro, I have to stay on the S8 Plus.

I already have the correct Firmeware and I know how to use ODIN.

But, when I try to flash it, it gives me error (not a specific one) just a error saying fail... and doens´t do anything.

When I bought the phone, it came with a dumb version of a country and he even hadn´t any update since July 2017. So I changed the ROM to my country ofc with no problems at all using ODIN. Now getting to downgrade part... I just can´t, always saying fail.

What Im doing wrong or is something missing?!

I did compare the firmeware and it is for my model/version!

From what I read, the new OS doesn´t let me downgrade as security messure, so guys HOW do I downgrade STEP by STEP?

I spended alote time on Youtube/Google and 0 luck or sucess... !

I do miss my SOT of 6/7h on the 7.0 of the S8 Plus!:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jagflashardinxbox360:
It doesn't seems to be working to root an S9+ 256GB DUOS SM-G965F (NEE - BRF8). NEE is Finland but it seems to be used in the whole Nordic.

After doing all the steps everything works but when the phone goes to sleep (the screen turns off and after a minute or two)) it will freeze (someone wrote it was AOD but it doesn't matter if it is running or not).

I also noticed the phone is lagging when using the startup guide, but it disappear after a reboot, but if i leave the phone and letting it fall in to sleep it will freeze and won't wake up again.

The only difference between "SuperSU 2.82-SR5" and "Magisk 16.6" is that with Magisk the phone is lagging at the startup guide and with SuperSU i have no SuperSU icon in apps to run.

And believe me, i have rebooted, but it won't help, no SuperSU icon. When the phone goes to sleep it freezes again.

I install TWRP with ODIN and Wiped the phone and rebooted into recovery, then i did:

1. no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0-star.zip

2. rebooted into recovery

3. RMM-State_Bypass_Mesa.zip (i have even tryed RMM-State_Bypass_Mesa_v2.zip)

4. SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip (or Magisk 16.6)

5. samsung-antiroot-removal-2.4.zip (i have even tryed samsung-antiroot-removal-4.1.zip)

6. reboot and wait

The phone will always show the "OEM unlock" so i don't need to wait 7 days for it to appear.

Any advice on how i should proceed?

Additional information:

I have now restored the phone back to default (ODIN and the 4 firmware files) and now it won't freeze anymore and "OEM unlock" is still enabled with this text below "Bootloader is already unlocked". Unfortunately the phone isn't rooted now :(

It seems that if i only flash TWRP i get the same behavior, it freeze after a while after the screen has turn it self off.

Samsung galaxy s9+ 64GB

Hi, first thing I want to say is I registered on this site just now. This is my first reply so please be a bit forgiving if I'm doing something wrong. That said....

I have the exact same problem.

I have the s9+ 64GB SM-G965F.

Here's what I did...

I flashed twrp through Odin which works perfect. On reboot into recovery I formatted data.

Reboot into recovery again and flash no-verity.

Reboot into recovery again and flash RMM.

Without rebooting also flahed superSU and antiroot.

The versions of those files are the exact same as mentioned above and in all the guides....

After all this system reboots and starts up just fine.

All seems okay but when my screen turns off it freezes after a minute or so and the only remedy is a hard reset by holding volume down and power.

It reboots perfectly fine then but the same thing.

When the screen goes of it freezes..

At first I thought it could be the official Samsung firmware so I completely wiped the entire system and flashed resurrection remix rom. All works but when I root this rom the same thing happens. Only this time the root seems to work while flashing but on reboot there's no SuperSU app and it's not rooted according to root checker. Same thing with the freezing though....

So I downloaded the latest official firmware from Samsung, BRF8 I think. Flashed that through odin and all works fine. No freezing. But also no root and no twrp or any custom rom. :(

So I'm thinking it has to be the rooting that causes it. Tonight I will try to only flash twrp and flash no-verity and RMM, I'll leave the root itself out of it just to see what happens.

I'll post the results back here... If anyone has any ideas it would be appreciated very much!

OH another thing to mention.... I have had oem unlock activated all the time, I checked on each boot and it was always active for me too.....
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jagflashardinxbox360:
If i only flash TWRP i get the same freeze. I used twrp-3.2.1-2-star2lte.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] SHOTOKANKATANA:
Oh... You beat me to it... :D

That's no good then, if it's caused by twrp there isn't much we can do I guess. It all starts with twrp.

I'm using the same version as you are.

Maybe we can try a previous version, I don't know what that's going to do though, if it would even be compatible...

I did find a separate official recovery file.

Maybe it's an idea to install the official recovery after acquiring root?

I'm not sure if the file is legit though, I've never done that before. Twrp always worked for me, on all phones I owned.

What's your though on that....?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] jagflashardinxbox360:
I wondering if this should be reported to the Github issues log for TWRP? The problem seems to be TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] SHOTOKANKATANA:
Maybe we are doing something wrong I'm not sure.

I know I followed multiple guides up to the smallest detail. The result is the same every time. There's 1 thing I noticed though.

I'm using the BRF8 firmware as are you, maybe that's the problem? In the video guides they're mostly on BRE5.

It looks like it's just us with this issue. I can't find any other info on this particular matter...

I've posted this question on another thread.

I installed twrp 3.2.1-1 instead of 3.2.1-2.

I used the same install procedure as supposed to.

Only used the other twrp version.

My phone hasn't froze for the last 2 hrs so I'm pretty confident it's working now...
