Very helpful. Thank you! Do you think there's any way at all that I can get the user data off this phone if it won't boot normally - only to recovery, maintenance, and download modes? Basically, is there any way I can access the user data through adb or flash anything that would allow that? That's all I'm trying to accomplish. I'm not necessarily trying to root it. I described the issue in further detail here: https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/help/pulling-user-data-recovery-galaxy-s7-t4160551

Here is some info from my recovery menu

Samsung/heroqlteuc/heroqlteatt

8.0.0/R16NW/G930AUCU4CRE4

user/release-keys

I have a stock AT&T Galaxy S7 G930a I think on Oreo. I broke the screen around April 2017 and haven't used it since then. I just repaired the screen but I cant remember my pattern unlock and I want avoid wiping/reset because I want the data on the phone. ADB Debugging is off, bootloader is locked, it's not rooted and it's on stock recovery. Can I use this method to bypass the pattern unlock?

Will this method work?

Flash ENG Recovery w/ Odin, boot into ENG recovery, then use ADB while in ENG Recovery to send commands to delete or rename the lock pattern/pin files, reboot to home screen, open settings and disable the lock? I want to do skip fstab because it requires wipe/data. If this wont work is there another way I can recover my data on this phone? Pictures/Videos, messages etc with some external software like Tenoshare 4uKey or even soldering if needed. I'm very good at soldering.

Things I've tried

"Samsung Find My Phone" to unlock the screen and while my device is listed it cant connect to the phone.

"Where's my Android" - cant find the device most likely because I've updated my Google password since 2017 and I believe Google will log you out of any device using your old password.

Deleting gatekeeper/pattern/pin files through ADB shell wont work cause ADB Debugging is off

Dr. Fone PC Software - Galaxy S7 isnt listed as supported devices

In order for me to get into the recovery menu I must disconnect the battery cable, then hold the key combo to boot into recovery. So that means I have the back of my phone exposed for right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] BLNORD:
Thanks - what version did you use to get this to work?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] afaneh92:
I think it will work for you, just follow the instructions.

To force reboot press vol down + power for 7 seconds.

I was on V6 and it worked for me. Depend on carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Snapdragon) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] KayKay919:
I flashed ENG Recovery and was able to detect phone through adb but I dont see the gatekeeper, pattern, pin .key files. I was made to believe their location was in "/data/system/" folders but there are no folders or files at all in the "/data/" folder. There is a "/system/" folder at root location but that doesnt have any files or folders either. "/sbin/" does have a couple files named "android.hardware.gatekeeper@1.0.so" and "android.hardware.keymaster@3.0.so" but I'm not sure those files are related to whats needed to be removed to get past this pattern lock.

Any help on how to get access to the files in "/data/system/" location?

***UPDATE***

I launched TWRP from cmd and installed Aroma File Manager from zip and it seems the reason I cant see any files or folders in /data/ folder is because it failed to mount. These are the logs when I installed TWRP and Aroma File Manager from zip.

Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.

Unable to recreate /data/media folder.

I understand that US Snapdragon models have the bootloader locked. My only goal is to get to a Google-free image without all of the bloat and track-ware. Don't care if I'm without root or TWRP once that's accomplished. Thanks.

heimdall will flash the raw recovery.img, just extract the tar, load the pit file for your phone on the flash tab, click add and choose recovery from the dropdown list and select the recovery.img you extracted from the tar file. Then just click flash, and voila! You'll have a TWRP running from a RAMDISK :) (OF course you'll have to run fstab.sh from your linux box one time while phone is at the recovery menu, then run twrp.sh while your phone is at recovery menu every time you want to boot into twrp.) @timba123 feel free to msg me if you have trouble!

Pretty awesome work guys! Thanks again to @jrkruse

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ixuss40:
Hi,

I' ve a weird problem about charging. 2 days ago, i plugged the charger and saw the red light. When i woke up, the phone completely gone. I tried to charge several adaptors but none of them worked.

Then, i plugged the laptop via usb, phone starts to charging. I can charge my phone only this way.

Do you have any idea about this problem ?

I do not want to send guarantee, because i don't trust them, they always says this was a user fault vs.

At the end, if powerbank charge my phone, i will buy a one which fast charger to solve the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ixuss40:
I finally charged my phone via unnamed traveller charging adaptor. But i can not charge with original Samsung charging adaptor. Do you any idea about this ???

Same adaptor works s8, doesn't work note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Max_Terrible:
Sounds to me like the original Samsung charging adaptor might be broken and not anything regarding your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] ixuss40:
Two different original Samsung adaptor doesn't work, but unnamed adaptor works.

I guess need to try before buying a adaptor :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] askjay:
Same here, only charger that works is with my old Huawei. Took my phone for warranty repair but they told me the warranty was void because I root it. So frustrating with this phone
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] studiorat:
He just said he tried numerous Adapters and I would assume cables.... So It may be a charging port problem.... Or the Converse of his procedures he used different Adapters but same cable leading me to the cable being Suspect... Either way It doesn't feel like its a phone issue...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] iceepyon:
If you have tried using different cable and different Official Samsung Adaptive Fast Chargers. Then there is some wrong with your device. You would have to get it repaired however seeing as you have already rooted it. You would have to take it to a 3rd party repair specialist and let them take a look at it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Max_Terrible:
Yes, that's pretty much what I said. I don't think it's the phone either. He didn't say anything about different cables, so I'm assuming it's the same cable. I still think it's the Samsung adaptor that's the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bigcalvin:
I have the same issue. my n950f only charge with powerbank or unknown wall chargers and with the notebook usb port but, the worst is that Windows dont recognize the phone, only charge it. I installed various kernels but the issue still persists.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] iceepyon:
Then you need to get another Samsung Adaptive Fast Charger as yours is broken and needs replaced. This sort thing happens quite easily with chargers as they generate allot of heat to convert the power to your device to charge it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] bigcalvin:
men I did it. various chargers and various cables. only wireless charge works.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] iceepyon:
In that case you need to take your device to a Service Center and let them take a look at it. They will probably repair it free of charge if it is still under warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] MrMike2182:
You need to replace the USB charging port. Simple as that, and no wire or 3rd party sh!t is going to fix it!!

[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamaskan:
So I found out that I can use XperiFirm to download any available firmware. I am in Australia and my device is still on 32.3.A.2.33 which is 7.0. So I am thinking to download and flash either Customized SG with 32.4.A.0.160 or Customised UK 32.4.A.1.54. If I do this I dont have to unlock bootloader right? Which also means I get 7.1.1 without loosing DRM keys. Are there anything I am missing? I heard I should disable myXperia, I'd probably just reset phone before doing this to make sure everything went ok.

Edit 1: yup you can. After looking on other Sony devices forums and Reddit it seems that you can flash other regions firmwarle. In the end I used the Customised SG with 32.4.A.0.160. I found that there are slight differences in the UI for example NFC logo is always on at the top when NFC is on and for the signal/data it says LTE instead of 4G. Flash tool was a bit confusing to you use though, and I had to disable windows driver signature check to install its driver.

Good day,

9.0.0.108 (C432E4R1P8log).

Are we all on this version?

It would be good to share experiences.

First experience:

surfed for almost 1 hour, recorded clips and recordings, played music, started new crazy options, loaded with the site, played mobile on smart TV via the "smart board" option, adjusted the options. spent about 5 hours almost without interruption. The battery ran out from 100% to 78%, while nothing was out of the question.

-the "smart board" option gives you all the content of your mobile on TV and work your fingertips on the screen on TV, from e-mail, viewing clips to playing,

- the option for a "wallet" is relaxed, but in Serbia,

the screen of the mobile station is a smart board,

4K video recording,

in 720 resolution, the video clips can be slowed from 120 fps to 960 fps. Perfect.

Some strange things,

the Wifi signal is continuously plugged in and I can not touch it by touching it,

In the label it says that the battery is 100% and in the settings there is actual consumption, discrepancy or what.

Mobile does not heat up while the camera is working.

They were a bit trickier with notifications when using melody and tuning.

It's because it uses system-as-root.

Normally this can be "fixed" by removing skipinitramfs in kernel, but Huawei removed it completely.

So we have to wait for TopJohnWu to release some solution OR for kernel sources to see if ramdisk can be enabled again (if only to start magisk)

[MENTION=6410262]bauuuuu[/MENTION]

Thanks for providing this interesting ROM.

I have a question. I am surprised that the installation instructions for ArrowOS are really that simple. When reading other Pie ROM threads here on XDA, most installation instructions have some kind of "flash this or that firmware" and/or "ensure to have run OxygenOS OB xyz at leat once", which isn't the case here.

For example, I am currently running Dirty Unicorns (Android Oreo 8.1.0), my OP5 is decrypted as DU doesn't support encryption (thus, no no-verity file is needed after flashing DU). So to switch from DU to ArrowOS, I only have to remove custom pin or fingerprint for device unlock, boot into recovery, make a backup (just in case, you know), perform a complete wipe excluding internal storage, flash Rom&GApps&Magisk and that's it?
[OnePlus 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] bauuuuu:
Frankly speaking this is quite understood when one installs a custom rom, one must be on latest stable firmware.

if that is confusing i just edited post to include those lines. Moreover if you ask me, i haven't installed any other rom, but just unlocking boot-loader, one full wipe of everything, install arrowos. works fine.
[OnePlus 5 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Portgas D. Ace:
Yeah, that was why I was confused. Advanced users here on XDA might know about this, but people who haven't flashed a custom ROM before might get into issues with this. If you would update your installation instructions, it would help avoiding lots of issue reports in this thread here.

From what I understood, ArrowOS is decrypted by default and doesn't require the no-verity file to be flashed, correct? So no need to format data partition before flashing ArrowOS? Because when you said that you have just unlocked your device's bootloader, wiped everything and flashed ArrowOS, I would say that your device is still encrypted. Just to avoid confusion.
