;)

Start from step 3. (overwrite vbmeta, may help you !)

You NEED to flash a stock rom. you need a stock recovery.

You have downloaded the file in this thread ? and flashed it ? Maybe here is your mistake. This one is for an old firmware, maybe not the same installed in your phone.

First : download the latest stock rom from samfirm. Then flash it with odin.

You will have a clean stock rom.

Then install TWRP and root your phone with magisk.

You want the steps to do that ?

Good luck !
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] kaho_tam:
have you solved this issue? I'm also only getting 32gb of internal storage after rooting with this method.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Clasimodo:
You didn't follow all steps closely enough. You have to do a factory data reset in step 9/10.

So you have succeded in rooting phone ?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] wittymav:
Yes! It works. I have root now. I have struggled with this for two days now and each time I failed because I failed to observe one simple step [after odin flash and wipe data and reboot, hold power+vol up].

I need steps to have Xposed installed on this device.

Edit: I now have Xposed installed and working fine. Thanks to everyone whose comments helped, especially the OP.

Edit: I had issues with passing SafetyNet too. It is all sorted out too. Here are the steps in case you need it...

1. From your magisk, install these 2 modules: Riru - Core, and Riru - EdXposed (Sandbox or Yahfa is okay]

2. Reboot your device to activate both modules.

3. Install Xposed Installer APK by DVDandroid. You can get it here: https://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/d...v33_36570c.apk

4. Reboot to activate the Xposed Installer app

5. Inside Xposed Installer app, go to downloads and install the HiddenCore Module.

6. Reboot and go back to Magisk and test the SafetyNet.

7. Boom! Everything passes now.​

I reboot normally too. No need to hold Power + Vol. Up buttons or to go to Magisk>Modules>Reboot, and everything works just fine. Magisk Hide works too. But Samsung Pass uses the tripped Knox to check for root, so, I had to get another app to replace it.

I am stuck in a boot loop today after restarting my device. I rooted my phone using this guide a while ago. I am trying eveything to see if I can rectify it. I have cleared cache, cleared dalvik,hard reset, restarted out of download mode. Can I go ahead a re flash the bootloader on it's own from the freija zip or will that mess things up? I am at a complete loss as to what has happened, but really don't want to lose my data if I can help it? any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] fizzingbees:
I followed that grarak guide but I am stuck

I used magisk manager ( canary version) to patch recovery.img and then flash this img in twrp at boot.

Phone booted fine. I had magisk manager which did additional steps and then rebooted phone. After which I for magisk notification that dtbo ha sbeen patched d to reboot devu device. When I do that I get stuck in endless bootloop.

Restoring stock dtbo from twrp bring phone back and I can access magisk manager and root checker apps work, but I still get dtbo patched notification and the whole process repeats everytime i reboot

So please help me... Tell me what steps you took to get twrp +magisk working.

What did you used to patch recovery.img

Please note I followed grarak steps
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] fizzingbees:
This guide fails me too

I get magisk and successful root after the mentioned steps

But installing any module and rebooting cause magisk to get lost and no amount of reboots with mentioned key combo can bring back the magisk root

Any fix for it.

I am using magisk canary 284 version.

Can someone quote the lat most stable working magisk manager version.

Also does this mehtid still work with Jan 2020 update ASL4 for A705FN/DS version of A70

---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

Kindly share the steps you took to root your phone.

I tried grarak guide which patches recovery img ang i tried topjohnwu guide that patches AP.tar

Both give me successful root until I install a module and reboot and then root get lost.

What is your magisk manager version?

Share your steps

I'm here at this thread too having just got an A70 to use. It's an international version and I used the same ROM that came with the phone, a A705MN variant.

I also went through these steps but had no luck with it. Odin flash seemed to go okay then got to recovery and did reset. - Reboot but no Magisk? Is there a way to get a decent recovery on these things so we can just flash zip files like the old days? :D

Android 10

Magisk and root was working fine in android 9, no hiccups during the process of rooting and installing magisk. But after the update to android 10, the magisk doesn't install and the root checker at times says that the device isn't properly rooted. I have used official android 10 firmware for flashing via odin and patching using the magisk manager. Is there another method for android 10? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

I need to decrypt WhatsApp conversations that are stored in my a70s internal storage.

I have tried restoring/backup WhatsApp, deleting the app and installing it again then restoring/backing it up again, but the specific conversations I need still do not appear in my WhatsApp list of chats.

The chat logs that are crypted and stored in my internal storage are still there though.

So how do I decrypt them?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] amir628:
Hey

Just so you know, your method worked for me on Android 11, too!

Although it was a little different to get to Recovery, Android 11 needs the computer cable connected to your phone to get there to recovery , beyond that, almost everything was the same.

WhatsApp does backup chats corresponding to the phone number registered with. WhatsApp does automatically backup chats locally every 24 hours at 2 AM.

If you want to restore your chats, it will only restore those which were available when the backup process happened.

You have to allow storage permission for WhatsApp to restore your messages. If you want to decrypt an End-to-End encrypted messages, go ahead.

will it work to install Android q?

Enviado desde mi MI 8 SE mediante Tapatalk
[Xiaomi Mi 8 SE Guides, News, & Discussion] dkmgfk:
Hi kemtiq

This can not be confirmed until the official MIUI with Android Q release (if ever), that would be long after the stable version of Q release date.

GSI images are just the system, in order to interact with the underlying hardware, GSI system images need a compatible firmware (the vendor partition, provided by stock MIUI)

In the past I have experimented with several different system+vendor combinations, eg. Oreo MIUI vendor+phhson pie system. In this case there's a notice of updating Android on the first boot, and MTP doesn't work. I didn't test further, thinking the Oreo vendor must be incompatible with pie system, and switched to official pie MIUI vendor with pie system.

As a speculation, if Xiaomi didn't further develop q based MIUI for our phone, we will need someone to develop a working q vendor in order to get q system working.(and the security patches entirely relying on the third party developer)

That, IMHO, would be the same as developing a device specific third party ROM

The problem is, there aren't many people using this phone around on XDA, since this phone is neither a flagship, nor officially released outside China.

After a bad fall, my Huawei P9 is not working anymore. The only backup I have, was done with the Huawei official tool (HiSuite).

I really want to get back all my data (applications data and especially all the messages) on my new phone (Mi A1).

How can I restore the backup on my Mi A1?

Is it possible to convert a Huawei backup into a Xiaomi backup in order to restore it?

About the messages, I have them in two different formats: an sms.db file and a .csv file.

Is it possible to restore this kind of files?

[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] JEANRIVERA:
For some reason the Exodus1 and U12+ you can still fastboot boot TWRP while being locked bootloader with that said if you fastboot boot twrp while being locked you can perform the the adb commands here,

be advised that it is not recommended to perform any other actions while in TWRP while the device has the bootloader locked like attemting to flash magisk, it just won't work and could possibly brick your device.

There is a possibility to flash old RUU with with S-ON. It is necessary to delete current ROM number in misc (example on my HTC_EXO):

Boot into TWRP recovery.

Check position of ROM version number in misc by command:

C:\ADB>adb shell "dd if=/dev/block/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc/by-name/misc bs=1 skip=2208 count=16"

1.43.617.3 16+0 records in

16+0 records out

16 bytes (16B) copied, 0.007033 seconds, 2.2KB/s

Delete ROM version number (1.13.401.1) :

c:\adb>adb shell "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc/by-name/misc bs=1 seek=2208 count=16"

16+0 records in

16+0 records out

16 bytes (16B) copied, 0.007466 seconds, 2.1KB/s

Boot into download mode (you can see empty line "OS- ") and flash previous RUU by PC or SD card flashing method, I prefer last one.

It works, I checked it on my Exodus1

For now we have only Temp S-OFF, this can be helpful to flash RUU for removing troubles and fixing phone when there isn't a current running RUU.

But never do it if you do not have a clear vision how to do it. For inexperienced users it is a way to get a brick, I will not accept any liability!

original Idea by [MENTION=950857]ziand[/MENTION] can be found here for HTC U11 all credit goes to him I have only changed the command to work on HTC U12+ and Exodus1
[HTC U12+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ziand:
Thank you for your mention. Yes, it also works on full 100% stock of U12+ with locked bootloader. It is possible on U12+ and Exodus1 because they can boot to their Temp TWRPs. Not important.. just after first command of checking position will be showed software number after factory or after last flashing RUU or factory reset.

Necessary to remember that some dd editing commands do not work with 3.2.3-5 TWRP and 3.2.3-4 TWRP. My mentions about it are here and here ... for now instead of them you need to use the last official TWRP or unofficial one according to your firmware number.

For this phone Pie is not last Android version, maybe Android Q will be last. So, for now this phone doesn't need to flash hosd at all. And this phone doesn't need any special instructions to downgrade even on full stock with locked bootloader.

From RUU which you are going to flash.
