Hey. Can someone tell me how to backup my own stock firmware (samsung a7 2018 - a750gn/ds)? I want to do the procedure but needed to have my own firmware if anything goes wrong. Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
You cannot until TWRP is installed.

You can manually backup your downloads and media etc to sdcard.

For apps and settings you can use smartswitch mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] DuncaneD:
Since there's an issue with mtp and we have to format the internal phone data during the procedure, that means we need to put the RMM bypass and Magisk zip files in an *external* sdcard. Am I right? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] DuncaneD:
How to do this? How to force reboot to recovery mode when I'm in download mode???? Help please I'm in the middle of the procedure.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
Hold POWER +VOL DOWN as soon as it reboots quickly change to power + vol up
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] DuncaneD:
Done! my phone is rooted now yaaay! :D

I confirm this method is working flawlessly on SM-A750GN/DS

And btw there's no mtp issues too.

ashyx, you're my hero :good:

Oh I have a question, I'm about to restore a backup I made earlier using Smart Switch when my phone wasn't rooted, will that by any chance remove the root?
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
Great stuff.

No problem with restoring from smartswitch it shouldn't affect root at all.

Regarding MTP, are you saying it actually works OK in TWRP? Internal and external storage mounts OK and folders are accessible?
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] DuncaneD:
Thank you :)

Oh, I see, haha so you mean in TWRP? I told you I'm slow. Unfortunately no, when I connect the phone to the PC while in TWRP nothing happens, the PC does not even sense the phone is plugged in. :(
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] McSvenster:
First of all thanks for your work!

I must have done something wrong - my phone is stuck at the Galaxy A7 Logo. Unfortunately I cannot get to Download mode, nor into recovery. When I press Power, Vol up and Vol down it reboots and will continue rebooting, as long as I keep this combination pressed.

Does anyone of you have a hint for me, how to get into Download mode, so I can flash twrp again?

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] DuncaneD:
I had been in the same situation before. I remember the only solution for me was using a USB Jig to boot in download mode and then flash the original firmware. You can buy a USB Jig or make one by yourself as instructed here.

Hope that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] McSvenster:
You made my day - thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:

BootLoop Twrp working can´t install mgisk

Hi guys, I was doing this instruction for twrp"ing" my A7. Twrp is working but It´s in the BootLoop. Can´t load the system. Tried to install stockrom also. I am not sure what to do now. I tried to install magisk (uninstalll) to get out of the BootLoop but I always get 1 error "cannot access /data pls uninstall with magisk manager" or "unable to repack boot image ".

I am able to get into download mode.

Maybe one of you guys can help me out.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] JoostA:
Busy with something else but quick answer: search Google for ADB reboot recovery. That is a solution to boot into recovery. You might want to boot into the bootloader (you did not meticulously follow the instructions..., I made the error myself) and that goes via ADB reboot bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] TehLuLz1337:
Thanks for the quick response. So I installed the universal adb driver via the clockworkmod homepage. I installed the samsung driver before. And I could transfer stuff to the phone. The device manger says "SAMSUNG Mobile USB CDC Composite Device". Sounds accurate but I am not sure. But typing "adb devices" shows me nothing. The command is working it says "List of devices attached.

The phone gets recognized when in Download Modus. In recovery mode it´s not recognized by my pc

I flashed TWRP, booted into it immediately after installation, installed RMM bypass and magisk, did everything according to the instructions, but the system stopped loading, displaying a malfunction message, and offered to delete all the data, but even after deleting the data, the OS does not load

I get into twrp But:

So when I flashed and get into recovery

- First I flash this rmm thing

- Then there is no data memory so i reformat to fat and then to ext4

- After that i flash rmm a second time to be save

But then when I start the A7 there is only the message to reset the phone

what can I do when i click the button I get into twrp and then the phone reboots and I get the message again...

Thanks for help:cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
Well firstly it seems you didn't follow the root instructions.

Secondly Formatting data is done by using the FORMAT DATA button not by changing file system.

Follow the instructions in their entirety rather than skipping steps.

[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] 44mrxvin:
Sorry bro my english isnt so good iam from Germany...

When i get in the formatting Window There are 0mb behind Data..
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
That's why I said you need to use the FORMAT DATA button as explained in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] 44mrxvin:
Yes but then i have the Problem with 0mb
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
It seems you're not actually paying attention.

Several times I have stated to use the *FORMAT DATA* button under the wipe options.

This is fully explained in the OP root instructions also.

If you don't follow all the steps in the OP, what more would you have me do if you're not prepared to follow the advice? :rolleyes:

how do you unblock the oem ami I do not get the oem option in developer mode
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Erecik:
So I just rooted my phone using this guide and everything is working fine!

Few tips for other people that have problems:

1. Download official Samsung USB Drivers! ,

Drivers here

2. Make sure that You are using most recent version of ODIN,

3. To enter recovery after flashing hold Volume UP key then press and hold Power key until Samsung logo shows up,

4. If you don't have Magisk installed after completing tutorial, reboot your system, if Magisk is still missing, then reboot into recovery and flash Magisk once again. This time it will work.

That's all I remember. Good luck and don't be affraid to try new things out. You can always flash your system from scratch if something will be wrong.

Edit:

5. Be carefull with Xposed, as on earlier Samsung phones it sometimes caused weird things to happen, or even bootloops.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ashyx:
@ 4.

Sometimes the root files are installed, but for whatever reason Magisk manager fails to install on some ROMs.

Without the manager root will not work. Installing magisk manager separately should fix it.

How to update this device after Magisk Root? Only Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Erecik:
Most likely yes, as long as we don't have AOSP we have to rely on ODIN.

I am not sure how it will work with unlocked bootloader, I never updated through ODIN with custom recovery installed.
[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] wikm:
If I remember properly - I installed on some device - it wipes TWRP and recovers original recovery.

I successfully installed the recovery twrp and the root with Magisk. Everything works perfectly!

I have a problem when I try to reinstall the rom stock with odin.After entering the various files (BL, AP, CP and HOME_CSC) I press start and after a couple of seconds the procedure ends successfully but has not loaded anything. The progress bar does not appear on the phone and remains in dowload mode ...If I repeat the procedure inserting the CSC file instead of HOME_CSC odin goes to stop and nothing happens.

The phone is recognized by odin when I connect it: "added!" appears .I tried to change cable and usb port without success

The command "fastboot oem lock" (which you used) will lock the bootloader. The warning in the link in your first post says "Warning: Pls don't attempt to lock your bootloaders with TWRP or any custom recovery's installed. It might just result in an unrecovereable hard brick. Bootloaders should always be locked with stock recoveries."

Please learn more about flashing before attempting it.

[Magisk] SpikyAndroid3:
Hey, all!

Had a notification this morning for the new Magisk Manager (6.1) and Magisk (18.0) release. I downloaded both and rebooted the phone (OnePlus 2), updating from 17.3 to 18.0 directly, which had no errors during the install. Now upon startup it hangs on the splash screen. I can get into recovery (TWRP) and I have tried to flash the latest Magisk Uninstaller but I'm greeted with an ERROR 1: Error Installing zip file '/sdcard/...' - Unable to unpack boot.img

Any help here? Thanks in advance!
[Magisk] DarkSJ1998:
You can do dirty flash of your current ROM. That would simply replace the boot.img back to normal and then you can try flashing Magisk v18.0 again (if you want to)
[Magisk] SpikyAndroid3:
Thanks for the response, just about to do a dirty flash of the stock ROM. My memory doesn't serve me well, is it best to wipe Cache as well as Dalvik Cache, or just Dalvik Cache?

The recovery also stays as is, right?
[Magisk] StreamingMT:
Hello,

The same for me from 17.3 to 18.

I'm on Nexus 6 with stock ROM.
[Magisk] DarkSJ1998:
Yep the recovery should stay as it is. I would recommend wiping both Dalvik Cache & Cache. Also, do keep fastboot handy. TWRP survival really depends on the device. For my device (OnePlus 3T), the OOS overrides TWRP if no root solution is used or patched boot.img isn't used.

---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 AM ----------

Weird :/

Did you check the Magisk release thread for people facing similar issues? I'm still on v17.3.

I'm really reluctant to move to v18.0 after reading such things... Moreover, I always wait for feedbacks before trying out things that play with the boot.img's & stuff, because I already got /data partition of my last device corrupted [emoji52]
[Magisk] SpikyAndroid3:
Alrighty! Just went ahead and did the flash and it successfully reboots! Tried to reboot into recovery to flash Magisk 17.3 and lo and behold TWRP is still there :)

Guess I'll wait until there has been an update or patch of some sorts if [MENTION=4884038]StreamingMT[/MENTION] is also getting this issue, maybe there are others too. Thanks for the help [MENTION=5457804]DarkSJ1998[/MENTION]
