[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
​

This guide was made prior to there being a working custom recovery for this device. I highly recommend installing @afaneh92 TWRP in this thread and then simply flash magisk from recovery.

​

I purchased this phone a few days ago for around £120 - Bargain.

I have spent a few evenings trying to obtain root - and finally managed to achieve it with Magisk

Full data wipes

are required during the process (please backup first)

Knox will trip

but

safetynet passes

and google pay working once magisk hide enabled

Based on the Samsung specific guide provided on Magisk Github - with a few minor differences.

I have uploaded all of the tools and files used to my personal onedrive folder -

Make sure your device is on the latest firmware and download the zip

- I used SamFwTool version 1.21.0 to download the BTU Firmware for SM-A025G A025GXXU1AUA3

Install Magisk apk on your device.

Extract the AP _ tar.md5 from the downloaded firmware .zip using 7zip

Transfer the AP to your device and Patch it with Magisk , then copy back to your computer.

Enable OEM Unlock and Unlock the bootloader the instructions from magisk git are below, for those that need a reminder.

Spoiler content hidden.

This is where we deviate from the magisk guide... as when I flashed the magisk patched AP along with the BL CP and CSC, you get a vbmeta error and it simply reboots to stock. Magisk seems to patch the vbmeta file and I tried replacing the vbmeta with the stock version from the firmware zip but that also was fruitless.

Extract the boot.img from

magisk patched AP

Extract recovery.img.lz4 and vbmeta.img.lz4 from the

stock (unpatched) AP file

7zip - create a new TAR, adding only those 3 files. Boot.tar will suffice for filename

Odin 3.14.4 - uncheck auto reboot and then Flash boot.tar in the AP section (CSC, HOME CSC, CP, BL not required - as the device and download are using the latest firmware)

The next part is essential and doing it wrong will again, result in no root....

I mistakenly pressed power up and it loaded fastboot... booting direct to recovery from fastboot again, results in no root.

Hold volume down and power to reboot...

As soon as the screen turns black indicating it is rebooting let go of volume down and hold power and volume up

Release power button when you see the android logo but continue to hold volume up

Release volume up when the unlocked bootloader warning appears

Tap the power button once to skip that warning

Stock recovery should now appear

Select wipe data / factory reset

Reboot system

Setup as usual and install the magisk apk

Update 10April2021: Since doing this quite a few times, I've actually had most success with Magisk 22.0 (I initially went with Canary - but stock is less hit and miss and if you do it exactly like the steps above you will get root.
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
Update:

Have just updated to magisk 22003 directly within magisk app - no issues to report so far
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Normanbayuaji:
thank you so much for the guide, i found nothing from google

can i unroot after modify this device with magisk canary ??
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
No problem at all, It was the same position I was in so had to post as it was painful process - needed it documented for myself to follow in future too lol

yes - it's very easy to unroot directly in the magisk app

I successfully upgraded to the latest version 22004 from within the magisk app. No issues to report. :)

[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Flik93:
I am trying to use this same process on an SM-A025V (US Verizon) but I have ran into an issue. I was able to find and download firmware for my variant but I do not have the "oem unlock" option in my developer menu. Is this because I do not have the international version?
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
Seems like its carrier locked. You need to be able to unlock bootloader unfortunately
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
Can you unlock your bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Ghet2:
Dont kno i have t-mobile version and. I have it

T-mobile isn't so would I be able to do this with t-mobile firmware . If it's available I don't kno
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
Well..

If you have oem unlock then you'll be able to do it...
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Ghet2:
Has to be a t-mobile firmware? or would this one work
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] Ghet2:
Anything for a025u yes

cześć5g

Hi:) i have sm-a25g As I connect with vol plus vol minus I connect usb nothing happens but charging the battery as I hold other keys, e.g. power vol plus I release power I keep vol plus the phone jumps in fastboot mode. In download mode I can only enter from adb reboot download but bypass the bootloader lock window, the manual input combinations in download mode do not work for me. Do you have any idea and can I ask for help? :)
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] drs@toms:
Hi, I have a problem with unlocking the bootloader in SM-A025G. I wrote a comment on you tube I got a contact from you whats upp. The problem is that after selecting oem unlock and connecting the turned off phone, holding vol plus vol minus and connect usb, there is only a charging mode and it should be a download mode with the selection of vol plus to unlock the bootloader. To flash firmware, the only way to go with adb reboot download but bypass the unlock board is the download mode. Phone with European distribution binary u2 android 11
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
With device turned off but plugged into USB...

Power it back up

let go of power and hold volume up and volume down. and it will boot to the download mode screen.
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
Sorry for late response.

How did u root it I have the metro version
[Samsung Galaxy A02s] ForForkSake:
Not sure regarding network unlock sorry.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] ZxYdR:
Hi guys,

I wanna get off MIUI and start using an Android 11 ROM. I wonder which one is the most stable and best maintained one?

I don't do any gaming or performance-intensive things on my phone so while the overall experience should be fast and smooth I don't care all that much about performance.

Stability, battery life and regular (security) updates is what matters to me.

Maybe you can suggest something. So far I'm thinking about Evolution X.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] nigzsingh:
A bit of help please guys. Ever since i flashed a new rom on my MDA, my OTA ActiveSync with my exchange account has stopped working. It keeps saying there's an address or proxy server problem. There isn't a problem with the details i've entered as i've tried both ways, auto detection and manual entry. I've now tried 3 different ROMs, firstly the TLR's, then SwiftBL and finally Dutty's. All work fantasticly better than the original T-Mobile ROM barring this one problem. I don't want to go back to that one, but if i have to, to get the Sync working again, I'll be miffed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] nigzsingh:
Ideas anyone??

I'm on ArrowOS 11, and in PRO mode, I have difficulties to tap S (shutter speed) and ISO.

# tapping on ISO sometimes lead me to zoom in the lens (like 2x in PHOTO mode), to correctly tap ISO, I need to tap on the right side of ISO text

# tapping on S (shutter speed) sometimes lead me to zoom out the lens (like 1x in PHOTO mode), to correctly tap S, I need to tap on the right side of S text

Anyone suffer the same issue like me? And is there another workaround to deal with it?

Do I need root to install ANX Camera? I tried flashing it with OFRP but I didn't see any camera app!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] alexielle51:
I use magisk for install, and if bootloop with ofrp, in magisk option you can disable anx.

If you use the 190 r you have another package to install (

For 190R and later MIUI Core magisk module is required:

MOD EDIT: Link Removed )

The first time that i have try to install i have the same issue. Try to re install with magisk or orange fox and with the additional package. And may be root is needed

I'm planning to hand me down my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 to my sister and I think I made a bone headed decision to do a full wipe using TWRP so it's now in a stock-ish android setting, OEM Unlock is not available in the developer mode even after waiting 7 days and trying to do the software update trick won't worked.

Can I still flash custom ROMs without OEM unlock or I'm more or less screwed?

If you already have a working twrp you shouldn't have any problems flashing ;)

Does the heat from fast charging affect the battery’s health in the long run?
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
Using a fast charger won't do your phone's battery any long-term damage. But exposing phone to high temperatures ( sun, window sills, car dashboard ) is known to reduce a battery's lifespan over time.
[General Questions and Answers] Malicool:
First, thanks for the answer, then when I use fast charging, the battery temperature sometimes rises to 38 degrees Celsius, unlike normal charging. Is this temperature considered normal with fast charging?
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
When a phone is in use, normally it's 36-38°C when browsing, whereas while gaming it's 46-50°C. Hence you don't have to fear anything, IMO.

hi i have a x88 pro x3 4ram / 32rom with stock firm, but even though aida64 shows 4gram i suspect only real 2gram for the free space it shows and it only supports sm1_s905x3_2g_1gbit.dtb for coreelec / emuelec.

I was looking for a firmware change in slimbox and it seems unsupported, so I read your post with several adapted versions. I am not an expert in the field, I would like to change the stock rom that works really bad for me for a lighter one as a multimedia center. could you recommend me some in particular. thanks for all the work. greetings
[Android TV General] Raxone:
Slimbox original version for x88 pro x3 is for unlocked box(bootloader) i made version for locked bootloader version and all my version is for locked box.

Here you can download USB_BURNING_TOOL_2.2 software for burning image on box and image and try.

Coreelec is light but big problem is youtube on all kodi based firmware.

Slimbox and Vortex firmware is lighter then stock firmware.

Have you tried flash any image to box?

Is it yours x88 box locked or unlocked?
[Android TV General] AlienatedDiego:
Thanks for answering, I guess it is unlocked because I have access to bootloader keeping reset at startup. Maybe that explains why I couldn't install any of your images with usb burning tool ([0x10103003] romcode / initialize ddr / download buffer / usb transfer error)

How do I check if it is encrypted or not? In any case, thanks for the info and for your time.
[Android TV General] Raxone:
Here is link for firmware from slimbox for unlocked x88.

Try this if work that firmware on your box is unlocked if not i need to see log from usb burning tool.

Log file is in Program Files (x86)/Amlogic/USB_Burning_Tool/log

Download
[Android TV General] AlienatedDiego:
Thank you very much, unfortunately the unlocked version has not worked for me either, so I may be doing something wrong. I'll leave you the log in case you want to see it, but I really don't want you to waste any more time
[Android TV General] Raxone:
Your box is unlocked version.I think problem is in usb cable or power from usb.

Try change usb cable or plug power adapter when you starting flash.

You use Usb Burning tool 2.1.9.0 try with version 2.2.0.0.

Hello Raxone, I have a x88 pro x3 with 20200627 stock firmware. I'm interested for an ATV image. I've already tried to flash unencrypted slimbox 10.7 using burn card maker. When I tried to flash using the reset button in AV plug, the flashing did not proceed instead I got the x88 pro x3 logo and android logo alternatively. Since it did not go well, I assumed I've an encrypted box.

Also my x88 pro x3 is not detected in USB burning tool v2.2. I've used the same reset switch in AV plug method to connect the USB A cable into the x88 box from my PC. Do you have any suggestions?

Also is your encrypted vortex atv v2.3.0 flashable using burn card maker?
[Android TV General] Raxone:
Hello.

Usb burning tool must see box no matter is unencrypted or encrypted.

Check driver or usb cable sometime usb3 port doing problem try usb2 port if you got.

You must install driver for amlogic usb otg, what happens when install usb burning tool.

I don,t try burn from sd card any of this firmware i try sdcard burn these days.

Hi Raxone,

I have one encrypted x88 pro x3 (s905x3) box with ulValue = 0x20444142 and want to help you with a dump from bootloader but do not know how/what method to use to extract it from the box ...

It is OK to dump it with "cat" like this ?

I do not have yet u-boot log because my UART/TTL is not yet connected to the box .... but thinking of opening it and hook it up just for this ...

Hi.

Try with this.

You need to edit StartDump.bat and put ip adress of your x88pro.

adb connect 192.168.1.108:5555 to adb connect your_ip_adress_of_x88pro:5555

If you start StartDump.bat you can dump all things like boot,bootloader,system,cache,dtb and .etc.

I recommand to you to dump all of your x88pro.

I need bootloader to try fix problem with usb_burnnig_tool but if you want you can send me boot.img and dtb.img.
