Your device firmware security versionis Bit3 not supported by samkey or any other 3rd party tool at the moment. Next time check samkey.org if your model is supported first. Also use ebay sellers like STAI30 who can help you with technical questions and sells 1 or 2 credits if you dont need 3.

---------- Post added at 07:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 AM ----------

Samsung frequently updates their firmware security and once you have upgraded there is no way to go back to an earlier security version. You can tell your security version by checking the first number after the letters following the device model number eg. G981NKSU1ATED model is G981N then the letters KSU follow and then the security bit which in this case is 1. For G988B if you check supported models at samkey.org you will find that BIT 3 IS NOT SUPPORTED so if you check your firmware and haave a 3 or higher at the security bit location it wont work. You just have to wait until samkey updates to support it. Usually all the 3rd party tools have the same limitations so chimera tool also does not support bit 3 etc. You can get the cheapest samkey credits from user stai30 on ebay any quantity from 1 credit and up

I was able to change CSC cheaper (as low as $2.99) with samkey, i found an ebay supplier selling 1 credit and 2 credit packs. Follow links to the items below.

Hello All, GMessenger is my default due to RCS (a must for me)

Hi all

I was able to succesfully root my A21S with the AOSP image of wer99 ( Big thanks for the work and the explanation on how to do it!! :D ) but I was wondering if there is any progress on rooting the stock image with Magisk or the AOSP image with Magisk. I am used to use this one and would like to give it a try. Or can I hide root with the SuperSU installed? (hiding root is needed for some apps like Pokemon Go :D )

Any tests I can do?

I am struggling with the TWRP not seeing the zipfiles I have on my SD card :-(
[Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers] Jokke73:
Hi

Just flash stock rom to your device, then flash the Android 10 AOSP prerooted image (https://xdaforums.com/t/root-possibility.4130739/post-83915657) to your device using Odin, make sure you wipe your data (but first make a backup if you need your data of course ;-) ), and then you can boot in this rooted version, works like a charm, thanks to Wer99 :D
[Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers] SpectreCular:
Theoretically, could this prerooted AOSP image also work on an A21 (not A21s)?
[Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers] Jokke73:
I am not an expert (at all) but I think the base stock image of the A21 is different so I think you should rebuild the super.img with your own stock vendor and odm.img files and then flash it. I tried to rebuild the image with Lineage 17.1 and that works as well on the A21S. It's a pity that TWRP / Magisk is still not available though

I tried to put Wer99's GSI rom on my phone but it fails. I think it's because my firmware is XXU5BUB4. And I can't load by fastboot.

Hi, I tried to flash my A21S following all steps of this tutorial to root it. But, fastboot doesn't detect my phone, neither under M$ nor under Linux.

Could someone help, please ?
[Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers] Meierhansen:
@MaBo2020 : I would not say its easy, as OEM keeps locking into this zombie state, where it does not show the switch in dev options anymore, but at the same it asks if you want to LOCK bootloader when starting with volume up&down + USB plugged in. Then you trip stupid Knox, reflash stock, wipe caches, reboot, lock OEM again, reboot, unlock again, reboot. Its indeed a PITA!

Yet, the Rom "Android 10 AOSP pre-rooted (Android 10 is highly recommended...." CAN be flashed onto SM-A217F/DSN, root works as well. I also have the TWRP beta 2 running, yet its a bit less functional than I wish. It might be that you stock rom is to new, or something else in this new, terrible AB + zillion partitions madness is stuck, but it is IS POSSIBLE TO FLASH A21s with custom rom. And have root via oldskool Super SU at least.

So please stop shouting again and again that it was not possible. Please.

Personally I am stuck at following point now: Android 10 AOSP pre-rooted works (/worked..), but it comes with Gapps preinstalled. Which I do not like, thus I would like to try some of fresh brew from the source.

Yet somehow I can not see the device with fastboot in any mode. Maybe just my brain confusseld from to much Huawei? Can someone give me a bump in the right direction here?

Ah ok. Yeh as soon as it was finally possible to root this phone I upgraded to Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 pro. In fact I only bought the A21 because I bricked a Note 8 pro. These phones are pretty common im surprised there is not more development for this phone but I suppose developers are using the S20's or 30's or whatever they are up to these days.

Whats the issues with root these days, using Xiaomi of course a custom rom is common but Samsung.. its not as if they hard lock their bootloaders. I will never buy an Oppo because I've heard their manufacturers boast about releasing 'unrootable phones'.
