I have watched [YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3a8YnWT3yk&feature=youtu.be[/YOUTUBE] and this [YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ia1ssQt6C8k[/YOUTUBE]. Both flash only AP but in the instructions by John Wu it clearly states to not just flash AP. Can somebody give some more insight what to do and mostly why I don't get into recovery

edit: Funny. I forgot to turn off auto-reboot at the last try. But on seeing the bootscreen I did the 3key combo. I get into recovery and did the wipe.

So it works for now. BUT: how do I update to new firmware and/or new magisk in the future?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Player04:
Magisk patch the latest firmware and load it into odin. But make sure u test the magisk patch firmware before flashing it with odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
Yes I agree it is frustrating Youtubers still have videos up saying flash AP only, wrong and risky. Repairable but tedious to sort.

Pleased to hear you got there in the end anyway!.

Updating Magisk is pretty straight forward. When Magisk indicates update available, update the Magisk Manager first then open it. Against the top item click on Update, then select Install then select Direct Install. Let Magisk do it's stuff - Reboot will appear at bottom right of the screen - press Reboot and your phone will reboot. No need to press any buttons on this reboot, it will go straight to Magisk rooted system.

When you get a firmware update notification, the procedure is similar to the original rooting but a heck of a lot simpler because you don't have to wipe.

See my post HERE

?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] J_Force:
thanks a whole lot for your help. Updating Magisk seems easy. Magisk Manager can update itself and Magisk will update by selecting Direct Install and reboot.

Also your FW update seems clear to me.

but at what screen do I release te buttons? the first Samsung screen or the bootloader warning? And if that fails and boot normal. Do I turn off the phone and use the 3 button combo again to start with Magisk? And in general, if/when I turn of mu phone and I want to restart. Do I just hold vol up + bixby + power? And when I miss this and do a normal reboot, do I just turn off the phone and try again? Or is everything lost?

And do all Magisk reboots go the right way? So when installing or updating a module, do I press reboot? Or do I turn of the phone and turn on with the 3 button combo?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] NetSkipper:
Updated to ASIG firmware.

Can't make any changes to /system folder, it's read-only. Tried with Root Explorer, and even with su on a Terminal.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
If you select Power-off when turning off your phone you only need to press the Power button to turn it back on, no other buttons needed, the phone will boot straight back into Magisk system mode. But if you select Reboot, you will need to press Bixby, Vol-up and the Power button as soon as the screen goes off. In a nutshell, Magisk survives Power off then Power on, but does not survive Reboot. A way you can reboot though without having to press the combo of buttons is to go into Magisk Manager, select Modules, then you will get Reboot options in the top right corner, select Reboot Recovery (that's where Your Magisk system is) and your phone will reboot straight into Magisk system without any button pressing.

If you accidentally boot into the system without Magisk, just simply power off, then power back on with the 3 button combo (release all the buttons when you see Bootloader unlocked warning) . The worst that can happen is you may have to re-enter your WiFi password and possibly Bluetooth pairings. To help to prevent these losses you can install the Magisk module Libs_secure storage companion.

Talking of Magisk module installing and updating, you will get a Reboot button on the screen, just press it, no buttons required.

?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] J_Force:
1: power off, power on without button combo!? That makes things easy. Just never do a reboot. Rebooting into recovery by the Magisk hamburger-menu is also a great tip for when installing/updating modules.

2: good to know that I don't destroy anything when by accident doing a normal reboot. I will install the mentioned module straight away (I only find "libsecure_storage companion for samsung devices", I guess this is the one ;) ) --> follow-up question. In the description it is mentioned to manually edit some file. Can you perhaps tell me if this is for the S10+ or not. Manually editing makes me a bit nervous

3: The reboot button in Magisk just simply knows to reboot into recovery??

Thanks again!

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 AM ----------

Unfortunately things go wrong on my phone. I just installed the mentioned the libsecure_storage companion and used the hamburgermenu to reboot into recovery. After the reboot all wifi connections are gone. Will this be after every reboot? Or just this time to install the libsecure_companion module?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ThomaSEK:
It is not necessary, so just don't do it if you feel nervous. I also have not done it yet, but it shouldn't be risky at all.

Yes.

Don't worry. That happens only when rebooting for the first time after installing the module. From now, your phone remembers wifi and bluetooth connections.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ninestarkoko:
Thanks very much for the explanation.

Do you know what happens if the phone dies because of low battery?

Is it the same as using "power off"?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
Yep, same as power off.

In fact as soon as you plug in a charger the phone will boot into Magisk system.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
Assuming you installed V1. 8 of libsecure_storage companion, I've attached a zip containing an edited

secure_storage_daemon.rc file.

If you want to use it is entirely upto you. All you need to do is search for this file using something like ES Explorer on your device, rename it for security, then copy the attached file, after unzipping, to the same destination.

I use it as edited, but it's upto you.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] J_Force:
Thank you. That makes it easier. But I still don't really understand what this change does. Since it is optional I want to make a conscious decision. Can you explain what the difference is between the making the change and not applying it?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ThomaSEK:
You can find it in the description of the Module:

After installing this module, manually edit /system/etc/init/secure_storage_daemon.rc and change the line with start secure_storage to stop secure_storage. This step is not required, but will stop the secure storage daemon from running unnecessarily. This change cannot be applied systemlessly, because the file is read by the system before Magisk starts.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] J_Force:
I can read ;). I just don't really know what are the consequences of stopping secure_storage and what is the result when not implementing.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ThomaSEK:
Sorry, that was indeed a stupid reply from me.

I can imagine by stopping this process you can achieve minimal savings in RAM or very minimal savings in battery drain. But many a little makes a mickle :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ninestarkoko:
Thanks again.

You have given detailed explanations and instructions in your previuos posts and they should be put in the first post in a FAQ section imo.

Did anyone try to remove the shutter button sound? I tried 2 options, 1 is from magisk module, the other is an xposed module for samsung, they seems to work for couple moment, but 2 of the methods start to not function in a while. Does something updates itself in the background? I couldn't figure it out :(
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ThomaSEK:
Does anybody here have a Snapdragon device (G9730 in my case)? I would like to know if Magisk 20.0 is working. I read about bootloops for Snapdragon devices when updating to Magisk 20.0. I cannot risk it at the moment, that's why I'm still on 19.3
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
As I understand it, the daemon runs at phone start up which is all that is needed, and doesn't need to be running all the time and using resources. Think of it as a script executing a command during phone startup which when executed does not need to keep running. Unless you have definite evidence of it interfering or slowing down anything, leave it running and don't edit the file, and leave it as it is.

SmartView with Magisk

This doesn't work for me, even with a reboot.

Open a terminal emulator (eg. termux) and type

su

to switch to root. Enter the following command.

The output should just say "disable". If it doesn't, then for some reason Magisk is not applying the property on boot.

Which Update Channel in magisk should i use? I have "canary (debug)", and magisk searched hours for updates, nothing happened. There dont appear to update in booth "things"* (manager and above magisk ver 19 for example) or appear that i have the actual version and all is ok, its only searching . Ive not updated magisk or my official rom since august/september.

I have 973f (exynos) rooted, without twrp and want to update to the new asjg version.

Or is the best way to install the magisk manager, who was posted a few posts before? My version is 7.3.3 in the app info from samsung and when i tap on the second search bar for updates in magisk, there appear a window with 7.3.2 and 2 points with a changelog i think. In magisk log i saw Version 19.4 for the other magisk part, but i dont know, that this it is realy right, but it "can to be about right"*.

*soory for my bad english, i dont know the right words for so much words. Maybe its not easy to translate german to english.

updated to Magisk 20.1

using stock patched recovery

the FW is still ASII

I'm having mtp problems. Copy larger files from/to PC doesn't work neither with internal nor external sdcards.

can anyone confirm.

edit:

reverted Magisk. It is the same. So it is not the reason. I am looking for the culprit...

edit 2:

found it. the USB cable is the original and finally I discovered that the USB socket itself (on the PC) has been physically damaged. All ok now. Too much abuse...

To update Magisk root from 20.0 to 20.1 , do I have to use patch a file or can I use install direct?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
I would suggest you go for the Stable update channel which is up to Magisk Manager v7.4.0.

Unless your Magisk Manager suggests otherwise, use Direct Install.

One more question, in the instruction of the first post, in step 7 it says to flash all files (AP, BL, CP and HOME_CSC). However, in the guide that I've found on youtube, the guy only flashed the patched AP and it worked. Which is the right way to do it (or both way works?)

The part of the video where he flashes the AP.

https://youtu.be/o3a8YnWT3yk?t=7m22s
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
Most YouTube videos still say flash AP only which was correct when rooting of the S10 first became available, but it was found that sometimes this method caused Odin to shrink the data partition. Therefore the instruction was revised to flash all of the firmware files.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] awdrifter:
Unfortunately I think I have softbricked the phone. It's in the Samsung Galaxy logo and Bootloader warning bootloop. I have done everythink like the video (except for the AP flashing part). Is this still salvageable? Thanks.

Edit: I can get it back to Downloading Mode, but I'm not sure what to flash. Patched AP.tar file only? The stock fw files (AP, BL, CP and HOME_CSC)? Please let me know how I should proceed. I'm afraid to do anything else to it incase I really hard brick it. Right now since I can get it in Downloading Mode I feel like if I flash the right files this can be fixed. Thanks.

This is how the bootloop looks like.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
I'm assuming you are trying to do a new root on an S10 and not a firmware update.

You can break the loop by pressing and holding the Vol-down and Power button after connecting the phone by USB to your computer. Eventually the phone will go into download mode, this may require some patience as it won't necessarily do it straight away but will eventually. Then start again by flashing the stock firmware.

Also have you seen John Wu's original instructions here :

https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#samsung-system-as-root
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] awdrifter:
Yes, I am able to get it into Downloading Mode and the device is recognized as "Added" in Odin. Should I just flash the stock BL, AP, CP and HOME_CSC?

[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] bininga59:
Yes, that's right

Gesendet von meinem SM-G973F mit Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] robbo1947:
Yep that's right, all the stock firmware files (CSC, not the HOME_CSC).

Since this is stock, you can allow Odin to reboot, so retick the Reboot option.

When finished, you can let the phone reboot, just setup with your WiFi password and skip other settings.

You now need to check your OEM-UNLOCK button status, it should be On (to the right) and greyed out. If all OK you can turn off, connect to the computer and go into Download mode and root using your magisk_patched.tar instead of the AP file with the other firmware files.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] awdrifter:
Thanks for the info. The phone has now be flashed back to the stock FW and it booted successfully. The OEM Unlocking is greyed out and it says "Bootloader already unlocked". However, I think there's some issue with my patched tar file. In the guide that I watched it asks for a special canary version of the Magisk apk (app-release.apk), that file has been removed. I was told to use the latest version of the Magisk build (I used Magisk Manager v7.4.0, when I choose Install > Select and patch a file, it downloaded Magisk 20.1 then created the magisk_patched.tar file), but maybe this version is not compatible with the Samsung S10 (UAE Region) fw? If anyone still have the app-release.apk from the canary channel please PM me.

Edit: I did the whole patching procedure again with Magisk Manager v7.4.0 and now it worked. The first patched AP file must've not been patched correctly. Thanks for the help.

i have read in this long topic (on site 95 and 96), to switch to custom via a link to ianmacd magisk version. then i saw, that i have maybe not a custom magisk manager (on the 2. pic) and i cant update the manager to ianmacd version (i installed it and it says, that the install was not sucessfull. or should i have first update the magisk to 19.5 or 20, and not the manager first?). i have read a few sites before, that uninstall and install then ianmacd's newest version would be the best. or can i simply switch to stable? because the s10 exynos is realy special for magisk. in the first time i opened it, it said that magisk must make a few changes and rebooted, like it was in every "how to root tutorial" written and in every tutorial i should install the canary version. what is now the best or the right way?

here two pics, first when i change to stable and the second when i switch to custom (ianmacd), where i see that my version does not sound like a ianmacd version.

i have read, that my installed version is the last canary (debug) version. when it dont search the whole time for updates, then maybe i can patch the AP file to flash the newest FW (Nov, ASJG). in the tutorial to update the FW the first point is to update magisk. when i switch to a other channel and dont install magisk 19.5 or 20 and only patch a AP file, could this work? how make all the other people it here?

thanks!
