[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] HighOnLinux:
As someone who's been in the rooting stage for many years, i can answer your questions.

1. You can not update your phone through OTA updates after rooting the device, as the device was modified in an unauthorized way. And since you own a galaxy phone, the e-fuse within the motherboard will blow and knox will be permanently blown. You can no longer use samsung pay, google pay, and any other app that uses the safetynet api, even after you unroot the device.

2. You will lose root every time you update. You will need ODIN on your PC in order to properly update your firmware and to re-root your device by following the procedure again that you used to root your device, unless samsung patched the method you used to root your device. You can always check what bootloader version you're on within the firmware. For example, on the galaxy S8, the firmware version is N950U1UES5CRG9. The 5th to last number of the firmware will tell you. In this case, N950U1UES

5

CRG9 is the 5th bootloader version. Keep this in mind once samsung starts to update your phone often.

3. You will have to debloat again from scratch. In order to fully update your device through ODIN, you need to download the full firmware file containing an AP (Firmware), BL (Bootloader) , CP (Modem), and CSC (Carrier File) and manually flash them.

Do keep in mind, it is possible to soft brick or even hard brick your device, so back up your data frequently if you decide to tinker with your device.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] paul_cherma:
Thank you for the detailed answer. I just updated my software to the latest official one by Samsung (April 1st security patch) but I am not rooted yet. I guess I could live with the fact that I can root the phone now and stay on this software version/security patch until I upgrade, since I would have to go through a lot of hassle to set-up the phone the way I wanted. But the main reason why I want to get the official updates is because of the camera improvements that Samsung does, since the main reason of me getting this phone is the camera. And there are some root-required tweaks that I absolutely need such as Viper, and some xposed tweaks also. I like the Stock ROM of Samsung, it really has come a long way at least imo throughout the years, as I have been a Samsung user since day 1 but:

Would it be a good idea to install a custom ROM then? I am reading the description of a few custom ROMs and it seems like I can “retain everything” by simply dirty flashing the ROM and following the dev’s instructions on how to retain root whenever the developer updates it. Is that a better route to take you think? I can keep my device rooted, and still get the updates through a custom ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] HighOnLinux:
That really varies depending on the custom rom you go for. Usually when you dirty flash a rom, you would need to re root your device, but some (not all) roms are persistent with root after system updates. Do keep in mind if you switch to a custom rom, your system might be more buggy and crash more often. One thing i will say though is that xposed is outdated. The last android version xposed officially supported was either 8 or 9. When it has to come down to certain mods you'd wish to have with root, take that into consideration too, as it might make your device really unstable if it's too outdated or if there's a buggy port available. I've dealt with that issue too many times on my phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Twodordan:
if xposed is outdated, what is the new thing the comunity is migrating to? All the privacy, security, and customizability tools available through xposed must go somewhere, right?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] HighOnLinux:
There's buggy ports thats flashable on magisk. While you still can get xposed, it'll be an unofficial version, and more likely to run into issues within your rom and daily use into your device.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Twodordan:
I mean xprivacy on xposed was the must have killer feature for any android device to turn your device into anything other than a privacy nightmare. If we can't do that any more we are f'd.

[EDIT] Looks like the new version of xprivacy, xprivacyLua is still supported for android 11, with magisk and EdXposed or LSPosed:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] starkwong:
First thing, you need to install HardSPL before flashing non-carrier ROMs in your Wizard.

Secondly, DON'T USE ShellTool to flash any ROMs now! After installing HardSPL, you can just use RUU to flash any ROMs without IPL/SPL.

What you need to do now is to use the original ROM for your device to get a working OS, then install HardSPL.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Questions & Answers] James.ptrsn:
I recently smashed my old device in my car trunk and needed to find a replacement. I was on AT&T running a OnePlus 8. A friend just bought a Galaxy S21 and had his old Verizon LG G7, stock, sitting around so he sold it to me for $60. I thought I had seen somewhere that it would work so I threw my SIM card in. Turns out it wasn't compatible and it suspended my SIM/account for use on AT&T which was a pain to fix. Before I try to either try to get a refund from him or sell it to someone else, is there anything I can do? I know I read some stuff about cross flashing to other carrier software but that some stuff doesn't work and may stop working when AT&T drops 3G HSPA+ support in 2022.

If you like to customize your Xiaomi Poco F3 and have complete control over its firmware, then the first thing you should do is root it. You can root the

www.naldotech.com

https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-poco-f3/
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] fastleo63:
Yes, your F3 bootloader has to be unlocked. Keep in mind that doing so will NOT void device warranty, but phone contents will be erased. So take a backup of personal or important files before proceeding.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Mahoro.san:
Thank you Leo,

Just started the unlock process and it requires 168hr (7days) of wait time , guess I can still uses my op5 phone for sometime until the wait.

Pretty annoying way of wait but at least its not unattainable.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] osemoka:
Hey. Are you sure it won't void warranty ? E.g.article

Bootloader Unlocking does not Void Warranty of Xiaomi and Redmi Devices - Gizmochina

Xiaomi smartphones are popular in the developer community, thanks to the company’s policy regarding warranty against unlocking of bootloader. But the brand has now updated its policy. Thankfully, bootloader unlocks still does not void warranty of Xiaomi and Redmi devices but with some caveats...

www.gizmochina.com

It says about unlock policy :

... "This policy is applicable to Xiaomi phones in India under both the Mi and Redmi sub-brand. Other regions could possibly have variations to this policy. And before you ask, POCO is excluded from the scope of this article and this policy entirely as it operates as an independent unit and has its own separate policy."

Do you have the source of the information that unlocking POCO from anywhere in the world is officialy not voiding warranty?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] fastleo63:
I don't know exactly if the above apply in your country.

Here in Italy Xiaomi/POCO said clearly that bootloader unlock and device rooting DOES NOT void warranty.

If further operations will lead to a phone crash/brick, so warranty will be void, and device will be repaired at a cost.

If in doubt, I suggest to ask directly to your local POCO office.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] osemoka:
I've got not local poco office jn my country (Poland) . When asked reseller they said - every software modification results in warranty loss. I don't trust their judgment entirely. Anybody know who I may ask about that?

Eventually we all know we relock bootloade, but if they want to they can see if that was the case.

I'm really struggling about unlock + root. I'm not sure if phone has a any defect.

I'll do it for sure in time (I really need V4A). I would have more morales if it was not loosing warranty
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] fastleo63:
Be aware that installing V4A on Android R devices like our F3 isn't as simple as it was with previous versions.

For example, the driver needs Selinux set to permissive to work correctly (a little risky practice).

For the moment I decided to give up, and installed a similar alternative (Wavelet).
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] osemoka:
Well. On my poco f1 with android q it was problematic but I found workaround not setting Linux to permissive I think. I just had to restart v4a and Spotify often before to make it work ^^. I am desperate to have it. I can't use in-ear headphones without auditory ear protection. They hurt my ears. Wavelet does not have that. Is it a way to achieve the effect? It's a bit off topic already so I will just ask elsewhere...
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] jfmark0718:
Hey mate I'm new on this kind of thing but can you share to me how do you unlock your bootloader?

[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] fastleo63:

What is this?There is option in dev opt that unlocks bootloader.I never unlocked my old phones by manufacturer.
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Natakranta:
It does not unlock bootloader, it only allows you to do it in fadtboot if you toggle it. With Xiaomi you need as well their blessing with a code to be able to unlock bootloader as far as I know (no real life experience with Xiaomi yet, still waiting for my F3)

Does unlocking the bootloader disable the ota rom update ? If that's the case do you have to manually flash the rom through fast boot everytime for updating?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] osemoka:
Afaik unlocking bootloader does not, rooting does disable ota.

And yes. Only way to flash/update roms is via fastboot untill twrp release.

Edit: Ok as I can see, you must enable "Systemless Hosts" in Magisk options. After doing that Adaway works flawlessly!

If I have to use canary build only to fix the SafetyNet test, it doesn't worth the time, everything else works perfect.

adb shell mkdir /data/.stowaways
