Hello very kind Developer! I was able to install TWRP Recovery but I have problems every time I access it. I have to set my language every time, Italian. Then I don't understand why Magisk no longer remains installed with consequent loss of the root. Please kindly help me restore Magisk using the new TWRP Recovery, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] cealaska:
I am not a developer, just someone who followed a couple guides to root my A70. I also noticed that the changes I made to TWRP were not saving when I reboot. It's because TWRP saves settings to internal storage by default, and since our version of TWRP can't decrypt the phone, it won't save settings. I have not been able to get it to decrypt my phone even I follow a few different guides.

To try to get Magisk root back on to your phone. Copy the TWRP recovery.img to your phone and patch it with Magisk. Copy it back to your computer after it has completed patching. Rename it to recovery.img and repack it as a TAR archive (with PeaZip). Reboot to download and flash your updated Magisk TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] MarvinMod:
you need to use odin 3.13 as other versions wont let you flash correctly to the A70

also to get the oem unlock, youll need to factory reset your device, set it up using wifi then enable dev options and the option should be there. you have to be connected to the internet to unlock the bootloader.

Grarak Will there be a TWRP fix for Android 10?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
Hello, good morning! I understand how to do it but I have some doubts to dispel! Once fleshato Recovery.img with Magisk, do I have to go to my original Samsung Recovery and do a swipe data / factory first and then access the reboot to bootlooder, (use odin to flash the Recovery.zip)? Then in odin should I uncheck the auto-reboot box to prevent automatic startup? If I need to prevent automatic startup, how should I use the power and vol + and vol - keys to complete all operations? Thanks and best regards.

Hi everyone, I managed to install TWRP Recovery on my Samsung Galaxy A70, however it happens that when I restart the phone, I notice that a partition of Magisk Manager is no longer updated (written in red) and the root-cheker tells me that the device is no longer rooted. Please help me solve the problem, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] JakunTech1010:
Can you tell me how did you root your phone?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
I rooted through Magisk Manager, I followed a video tutorial on YouTube. The root was successful, but I also need TWRP Recovery! So the situation is that if I install TWRP Recovery, I lose Magisk and the root and if I reinstall Magisk, I lose TWRP Recovery!
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] JakunTech1010:
Ahhhhh, so you've rooted your phone by patching the AP file in Magisk Manager. Well to restore root actually pretty simple: you patch the recovery.img file with Magisk (remember to use canary version cuz 20.3 will lead to bootloop, I've tried) and then put that patched img file to SD card. Then reboot to TWRP, flash the patched img file as boot. There, all done.

Note: Remember to take backup because you might needed to format data.

Alright, good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
Hi everyone, I reinstalled Magisk Manager acquiring the root privileges again with consequent recovery of the original Samsung Recovery. Now from what I understand, I should reinstall TWRP Recovery thus losing partial use of Magisk Manager and root privileges, however if I could patch Magisk Canary, I would regain full use of Magisk Manager and root privileges. The problem is that the developer closed the link page where the versions of Magisk Canary were, I personally could not find them. Please still help me, thank you.

Canary build of magisk manager

https://github.com/topjohnwu/magisk_files/raw/canary/app-release.apk
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
Hi everyone, then I installed the app-release.apk file (Canary) and Magisk Manager changed its look, more beautiful and updated. After that I entered the original Samsung Recovery and through Odin I installed the TWRP Recovery. After restarting the phone, the root disappeared and even a partition was not updated in Magisk Manager (20.3). I followed your instructions to restore the root, that is with Magisk (the partition not updated 20.3) I pressed the install button and I followed the instructions I read in front and I patched the Recovery.img file; the flashing started but in fact it never ends, it always lends an eternal. Obviously something was wrong, let me know thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] JakunTech1010:
I encountered the problem once.

Clear data of Magisk.

That should fix it
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
Sorry but how do I delete the data from Magisk Manager? Do I have to uninstall all Magisk Manager applications including the app-release.apk file and install all over again? Do I also have to do a total cancellation with TWRP Recovery? Let me know all the steps to take, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] JakunTech1010:
Goto Settings, choose Apps, find Magisk Manager and choose it, choose storage then choose Clear Data.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
Hello everyone! After many trials and efforts I finally managed to redo the root with Magisk Manager while also holding the TWRP Recovery in the phone! Now I would like to know one thing; when I install the modules of Magisk Manager and the system asks me to reboot, when in fact the reboot occurs, after the writing Samsung Galaxy A70, I find myself in the TWRP Recovery, so I must always reboot the system from the Recovery itself. I would like to know if it's normal or there is something to set. Last thing, I notice that since I rooted the phone, connecting it from off to the charger, it happens that it turns on automatically. If I turn it off, it happens again. Before I rooted the phone from being turned off while it was charging it never turned on! Please give me some explanation and if there is a remedy, thank you very much!
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] JakunTech1010:
1. Yes, it is normal that if you after installing a module inside Magisk, pressing Reboot will take you to TWRP.

2. When you turn your phone off and charge it, it automatically turn on? Well I never experience it (actually yes I do experience it with custom rom).
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ilromano25:
Hello everyone and happy Sunday! Yes, of course, when I turn off the phone and put it on charge, it turns on automatically as if I wanted to use it normally, from the Samsung logo screen to the screen where it asks me to insert the SIM card pin. From this screen, if I press the power button to turn it off, it happens that it switches off and automatically restarts as from the beginning! In fact, I don't see the black screen with the round symbol of the percentage of charge anymore, unless I remove the root from the phone! On Magisk Manager, I found a module called Advanced Charging AAC, there is also a video tutorial on YouTube in English (which I don't understand because I'm Italian) where you can see all the settings to change the battery charge. Perhaps there will also be a setting to prevent the phone from being turned off once put on charge! I do not know! If anyone is able to let me have all the settings and instructions on how to best use this module, I would be very grateful to you! Thank you all!
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] JakunTech1010:
Ok, for some weird reason, after a night, when I lock my phone, the screen won't go black but it still stay at the lock screen. I've pressed the power button and it went dark for a few short millisecond and then it shows the lockscreen again. What's going on? I've rooted with Magisk Canary on Stock ROM.

Yup. Tried it a couple weeks ago. 3 times, haha. Finally gave up. If you get the smart switch error screen you should still be able to use Odin. It's apparently download mode (screen colour=big hint). It should flash and the phone will show a progress bar.

Just do the patched Magisk with AP. Then flash (i do all four the home csc).

No TWRP and the volume up for root is better than a locked bootloader. I keep checking for a new TWRP. Everyone's going to be on 10 soon...

Hi very kind XDA Staff, the other day I download the new firmware (Android 10) for my Samsung Galaxy A70 and after installing it I performed the procedure to obtain root privileges through Magisk Manager. Later, I also installed TWRP Recovery 3.3.1.0 and after Odin had finished the flash I entered the recovery manually but the screen remained still, not allowing me to perform the next steps! This phenomenon is the first time that happens to me, please give me some help thanks.

While reading this entire thread before I root my phone I came across certain confusing terms.

The Op mentions the following text :-

Select /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img and

install it to boot. Now reboot and Magisk should work.

If you run into issues after this, go into TWRP and

restore the boot partition you backed up previously.

What does install it to boot means?

Because someone here installed it to recovery and it messed things up for them

I don't understand this point. Is this some kind of option in magisk that you click or some option in twrp.

Kindly someone elaborate.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kissa67zwi:

So far: installed Magisk.zip from github by using Grarak's TWRP & rebooted.

-.> No more system startup. Looked like a bootloop.

Fortunately had a boot backup, as suggested in OP. Restored that using TWRP restore. System boots fine again. But no Root.

Then tried patching Grarak's TWRP recovery.img with Magisk app, converting .img to .tar & flashing it to device with Odin.

STILL NO ROOT. System does not boot up & loops. ?

You have to patch twrp img in magisk canary version and flash that patched twrp.img in twrp recovery again.

You don't have to pack it as tar and flash in Odin

Also OP doesn't say to flash magisk zip . The whole point of patching twrp.img was to inject magisk into recovery and then flashing that patched recovery to get magisk root.

And you didn't mentioned your firmware version. Are on 9n stock android 9 or Android 10

Quick question

Can I reboot device the standard way after rooting with this method cause another thread here in A70 mentions to reboot with certain key combination to keep magisk and root

Does grarak way Also require this key combination when rebooting?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] ikkanomyoju:
This is stock ROM Android 9.

Will try using Canary channel Magisk.

In the meantime: this means "Canary Magisk" patching "Grarak TWRP recovery.img" and then using Grarak-TWRP to flash it to /boot partition, correct ?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] fizzingbees:
Yes.

You first flash grarak provided twrp in Odin according to instruction.

Then patch the same grarak twrp recovery.img in magisk and flash the patched version again in preexisting twrp recovery.

I'll upload magisk canary version for you here in a moment

Xda labs is having problems uploading the apk file so I am providing a direct link. Open this link to get the download directly which is named as app releases.apk

Ok. tried your apk. Boot loops same unfortunately.

Now reading John Wus installation description my suspicion is it might have to do with setting up the A70 with smart switch & apps between steps

>flashing vbmeta.tar + full wipe

>& flashing TWRP / setting up Magisk.

In John Wu's description it says full wipe required before Magisk. On the other hand, at the end of OP step 3 it says set up phone normally. Can anyone confirm this would be a problem ? So if this would be the case, it requires another factory reset/wipe before Magisk can work ?

---------- Post added at 06:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------
