[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:
Thanks for all the links. My Linux box (my main man) is running Mint 20.2, which is based on Ubuntu, so I guess it should work. But I'd have no problem installing Ubuntu if needed. I have 3 Ryzen boxes, so letting one be "tied up" compiling is no big deal.

I'm currently having a few brews at a local bar, so it will be tomorrow before I can check the links but I'll be back in touch once I do.

Again, thanks

Another way to learn how to build roms is to build TWRP. It's like a small stepping stone towards learning how to build a full rom. Again, take a working TWRP repo and try to replicate a working TWRP for a device you already have.

When you build a full working LineageOS rom, LineageOS builds it's own recovery.img (similar to TWRP), but most people prefer TWRP for its extra features.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] retiredtab:
As for one last thought on building, do it for 17.1 or 18.1. 19.0 is still a work in progress and it will be frustrating as changes are constantly being made while you are learning. It's better to take 17.1 or 18.1 and start from there.

I haven't built any GSI roms, but if you want to learn that, I suggest doing GSI after you have learned building your own rom first. GSI requires a bit more work especially in older devices that didn't come with a vendor partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] lewmur:

So my phone keeps restarting and it actually opens up and nothing happens until I unlock the phone. Once I do unlock it, everything freezes and it reboots.

Any solutions guys?

A recording of what happens
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] j3ffm1ll:
have you tried to wipe the Cache from in recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] eslam21006:
The phone is not loading the recovery as well. Not sure if I'm doing it right but I keep holding power and volume up when it is off, but it just boots normally.

Getting a message "PDP ... Backup Fail"
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] eslam21006:
Update: I could enter the recovery by connecting the phone to the PC and wiped the cache.

Yet, the issue still there.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
Maybe time to do a factory reset ?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
OP, have you modified the system at all? Unlocked bootloader, rooted, and/or installed a custom recovery or OS?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] 416084:
Also have you added any new apps ? Maybe you added something that isn't playing nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] j3ffm1ll:
You could try to boot to safe mode:

Simultaneously press and hold the

Side button

and

Volume down button

(right edge) until the 'Power off' prompt appears on the screen then release.

Touch and hold

Power off

until the 'Safe mode' prompt appears then release.

To confirm, tap

Safe mode

.

This process may take up to 30 seconds to complete.

Upon reboot, 'Safe mode' appears in the lower-left of the unlock / Home screen.

With Safe Mode enabled, ensure Airplane Mode is turned off then test device and app functionality.

This is a root method for the s7 and s7 edge on bootloader 11 (B) phones using the combination firmware. I really dont think it will do much but I will post it and maybe someone will do something with it

Odin3_v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD.7z

S7 Files Found Here

Instructions

This will repartition phone to be like Verizon S7 flat models and Verizon S7 edge models to make things more uniform. This will not affect the phone. If you have done this method before 10-31-22 and currently are on safestrap you need to redo the process from step 1 to partition the phone correctly.

1. Download and unzip COMBINATION_VZW_FA60_G935PUCUBATA1_REV-11-B_*-*-*.tar.7z.

Inside is a HERO2QLTE_USA_VZW.pit. Load this pit file in the Pit Tab in Odin and the COMBINATION_VZW_FA60_G935PUCUBATA1_REV-11-B_*-*-*.tar.mds in the BL slot in Odin. Under the options tab in Odin select nana erase and make sure repartition is check and then flash

2. Phone will reboot twice when done and on second reboot you wipe data and then reboot. Once phone is booted you will have a limited combo rom you just need to copy rom from post 2 too phone and reboot too safestrap. You can do this by using the reboot app and click reboot recovery or by manually rebooting too recovery from powered off phone hold power up + volume up + home button till phone boots and you see recovery rebooting. The other apps are not needed unless for some reason safestrap doesnt work then Flashfire is included to do the flashing

3. Proceed to Post 2

I don't mean to complain, and I am so grateful for what you do, but, I have T-Mobile . . . 😬?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] billa:
Combi firmware should flash over any carrier version as long as the binary bit matches, in this case "B"/11.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] billa:
So after flashing the combi and SuperSU_System.zip in safestrap, will the phone have to stay in combi firmware? Is it possible to flash it back to stock without losing root?

By the way, just checked and there's still no engineering boot available for "B"/11 bit version. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
on the regular verizon s7 page there is a rom in post 2 that may may not work on s7 edge its combo based but I added google apps. There isnt much can be done I just this method incase root was needed for something like csc change or other things rooted rom may be needed to repair phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] billa:
I guess it might be useful for mods and servicing.

I just checked all my sources for a true eng boot for "B/11", but still nothing out there.

At least one can flash a combi unlike on all newer models which lock that down too.

I'm still rockin' my old S7 after all these years, it's rooted on "A/10" and works just fine for what I need it for (basic stuff). lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
yes this method doesnt gain you much but figured I would post it. I held off a long time because I figured an eng boot for rev 11 would show up but since none of this stuff is needed anymore to carrier unlock phones these eng firmware's and files dont get leaked like they did in the past

This doesn't unlock the bootloader, does it? I have my old VZW S7 A bootloader, flashed the U firmware and rooted. But it has gotten incredibly unstable over time. Can I update to the B firmware and use this root method? What would be the benefit of doing so
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
I wouldnt you can still root A bootloader on oreo but B you cannot only the combo firmware
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] gscottnyc:
I am on a SM-G930T with bootloader B, tmobile rom G930TUVSBCTA2. I installed the combo firmware just to see if it worked. It did but obviously without normal phone functionality.

When a reverted back to the stock firmware though, I lost the fingerprint security capabilities. When I try to scan a fingerprint, I get a popup that the Home Key needs to be clean and dry. (But it worked perfectly just before testing the combi firmware.) Weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] elesbb:
Have a coworkers S7 G930V and need to backup some system apps, adb backup doesn't seem to work (file is 47 bytes lmao) if I flash the combination firmware, do I have to wipe data or will data stay? My assumption is data must be wiped so thats no good
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] The_Real_Beef:
I am also curious about whether this results in getting the phone wiped - I'm trying to backup the applications from my old phone (the S7 930U with B/11 bootloader) with Titanium to put on a new phone since I can't receive 2FA texts. I've got my SIM Card with me, but my service is not functioning here in Europe and after spending hours with the phone company the only way for them to fix it is for me to travel back to the US for a few days to resolve it and return, which I won't have an opportunity to do for several months.

I did the the last time I upgraded, from an S4 to an S7, without any complications. It seems every year the process becomes harder and more convoluted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] elesbb:
If the new phone is also a Samsung you could try Smart Switch from Samsung
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] The_Real_Beef:
I don't think Smart Switch pulls the tokens, but it's worth a shot since it's easy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
what tokens are you talking about?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] The_Real_Beef:
Authentication tokens - but it's no longer an issue for me. I just took an 8 hr trip to where I can get service in order to get 2FA to work with my original SIM/#, since I couldn't get ADB to find my device after flashing the Combo Firmware.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] DragonFire1024:
Right you are. I recently acquired a S7 in pristine condition and unfortunately also from Verizon. It was already on binary aka bit 11. However it had been previously reset and a certain three letter word we can't mention here, was tripped and the phone was unusable unless the proper email was synced to it. So to remove this protection, one has to further "erase" the devices protected data. This whole method works like a charm for root and it also wiped that data when a new system image was flashed. I was able to log in and use the device as normal.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
I never made tmobile rom for s7 edge only Verizon so you must have flashed the rom for the s7. That’s probably the issue
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] theknowblack:
No I have s7 flat, i edit bulid.prop and work wifi but now I see that battery does not charge above 80% but i think that it would be battery really?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
You realize this is s7 edge thread.

Battery only chargers to 80 percent on combo bootloaders. As far as rotation I don’t really have anyway too test this as I don’t have the device anymore and I know this is just a half assed method and not the greatest but there isn’t much too work with using combination firmware and stock marshmallow rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] theknowblack:
No i dindt realize but I give you thanks a lot for this because by the moment is workning for me the other things doesnt matter, do you know were is a s7 flat thread? Because eng boot for bit 11 seem nerver will exist I have think in try jtag but maybe is not available for s7

loaded the .tar into AP in custom odin and tried again with same results

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] devinalonzo:
Yeah

Yeah, at first it wouldn't find a host to download. Then I found a link lower in the forum. The link in the OP was the one in the end that worked. Now if i could figure out how to install the g935_system_vzw in safestrap so i could install it then install the EFTSU we would be good haha I tried manually unzipping on pc and transferring over but it fails. Maybe I'll try another SD card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
just download and uzip the verizon system image then copy the system image to phone in safestrap choose wipe data then goto install and at the bottom choose image then select the verizon system.img and flash to system then flash then flash root zip and reboot system

Once signed in just let stuff update it will take probably and hour for google core stuff too update.

Is there any way that I can use factory binary to remove work associations? My phone is a personal phone that I got a few years ago used. (SM-G930V Binary 11). I installed factory binary but then reverted it to stock and now it thinks its a work phone and I can't set it up without signing in to a work account which i don't have. Is there any way i can use factory binary to change it from a work phone to a personal phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
I dont know if your talking about frp locked or knox or some kind om mdm lock. If its a knox thing then your work will have too remove it. You can flash rom in post 2 and you should be fine but its only marshmallow rom.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] K0mraid3:
I was able to find a workaround for the battery percentage:

1. FIRST Get your battery capacity!!!

$ adb shell cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_capacity_max

800

2. Calculate your 100%

800

* 1.2 = 960

3a. Charge battery fully (UI will say 80%):

Use your new 100% value in place of my 960!!

adb shell

$ su

# echo 960 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_capacity_max

3b. To revert back (and see actual %):

put your old value in place of my 800 here

adb shell

$ su

# echo 800 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_capacity_max

Warning:

This is not persistent across reboots (but could be implemented as such)

This does not change the fact that your battery meter will say 80%

This confuses your phone into thinking the 80% limit is higher than it actually is

This could be harmful to your battery life, battery condition, and battery operation

The Control Chip on the battery itself should prevent any unnecessary charging from occurring

I'm just a guy on the internet, don't mess with your phone unless your are willing to pay for any mistakes.

How this works:

The Kernel reads the battery percentage from /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity

We make the maximum battery capacity increase by 20% /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_capacity_max (the commands above)

Kernel reads the battery percentage from /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity again and its now 20% lower because of capacity calculations (percentage = used capacity / batt_capacity_max)

Kernel lets the charging continue to 80% which is in actuality 100%
