[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
This is correct

What this means is that the original firmware has a files that names start with AP_, BL_, CP_ and CSC_ (also HOME_CSC).

The guide is telling you that including your magisk patched AP file, you should also flash your stock firmware BL, CP and CSC files. Your provided screenshot shows that you only have the magisk patched file loaded but not the others. If you flash this way you can mess up your data partition, which is what @Zillion is referencing.

Thank you, so like this then? Now press "Start"?

[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
Yeah, everything looks good to go. Just connect your phone in download mode and it should be able to flash.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
I had already the phone in Download mode and plugged with USB cable to the computer. Now as a double check(I haven't clicked on Odin's Start button yet) I decided to run "adb devices" and the list of devices comes empty. Is this normal when the phone is in download mode? Or does this mean that the phone lost connection to pc?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
yeah, the File Explorer is no longer seeing my phone. Should I reboot the phone again in normal mode, make sure that the phone is connected and seen by Windows and only then, reboot it into Download mode and flash Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
or am I supposed to choose any menu option in the Download mode menu in order for windows to see my phone?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
It's normal for adb to not recognize the device when it is in download mode. The reason why I mentioned this is because according to your latest screenshot, Odin is not picking up your device.

View attachment 5681557

The field below ID:COM should be populated (iirc). This right now shows me it's not detecting your phone.

Question for you, did you download Samsung's specific developer drivers? You can find them here: https://developer.samsung.com/android-usb-driver

No, getting detected while the phone is booted and getting detected in Download mode are 2 completely different things.

Try the Samsung specific usb drivers I sent you, 99% of the time this is why Odin isn't picking up your device
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
yeah, I hadn't installed any Samsung specific drivers, I just let windows auto-detect and install whatever it chose.

So I'll install those drivers you linked, hopefully that's it.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
Good luck, be sure to quote my answers if you need further help, that way XDA sends me a notification :)
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
I installed the Samsung driver you linked me, then I rebooted the phone into normal mode, then restarted the Windows VM, then ran Odin and the phone was added by it(in normal mode)

Then I shutdown the phone(at which point Odin removed it) then rebooted the phone in Download mode and Odin does not recognize it.

View attachment 5681615

I wonder if the fact that it is a Windows VM has anything to do with this.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
It could be. Just to be sure, you pressed the VOL + when you rebooted to download mode to "Continue" on the first screen, right?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
yes, I had. I found what step was missing. I just saw on a youtube video that on the screen I arrived with blue texts on black background I had to move the selector down and select "Reboot into bootloader" then select it with the on/off button. I did that and now I see for the first time an all blue screen with a big white download icon and it says "Downloading..." and instantly my windows recognized the phone.

Such silly oversight. I didn't see that step in the guide!
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
Oh oh... how can I know what went wrong?

[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
Have I "bricked" the phone? :(
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
You can easily recover from this just by flashing everything again except use your stock AP instead of the magisk patched one. Your screenshots are typical errors when you don't properly unlock your phone
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
I thought I had properly unlocked the phone, I'll need to recheck the steps again once I reflash the stock firmware.

Could this have happened because I had signed in Google Play Store with my google account? I remember now a popup when starting Odin that said something about deleting the Google account.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
The most common problem I see when it comes to unlocking the bootloader is that even after you unlock it in your download mode, you still have to set your device up, you still have to activate developer settings and you have to open developer settings to confirm OEM unlock is present and greyed out

[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
in that case, that might be it. I need to double check it, but from what I recall, looks like I had misunderstood that OEM unlocking setting in Developer settings and I had turned it on
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
in the guide it said

Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking

which I interpreted as turning the switch on for that setting
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
Yeah, you have to check it twice for some weird reason lol thanks to Samsung

You go to Developer options to actually turn OEM Unlocking on

You reboot to download mode to unlock bootloader from there

You reboot and set up your device normally (it's important to connect to a WiFi network during the setup)

Then you open developer options just to see that OEM Unlocking is on and grayed out. Yes, this is mandatory.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
I think I completed the rooting process successfully. Thanks a lot @ShaDisNX255 for your help!

Just to double check, how exactly do I verify that my phone is rooted? I downloaded a couple of apps from the google play store that are intended to check if I'm rooted and both say that I'm not.

And once I confirm that I'm indeed rooted, what is the best place to learn about and install special features, apps, alternative play stores, etc... that I can take advantage with my rooted phone?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
Settings > About Phone > Status Information > Phone Status reads "Custom"... is that a confirmation it is rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
Well, for starters you can open your Magisk app and send a screenshot of the information displayed on the initial page.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
here it is
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] bogavante:
And this app thinks I am not rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] ShaDisNX255:
Yeah it doesn't seem like you are. You probably missed something.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] DeviceGrabber:
changing rom from GLB to XTC can actually openline a device?

Im current using A33 5G and A52s 5G.

I want to openline both. Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] jejexd:
Hi, I would like to know if you think there could be any trouble rooting the A336M (A33 5G). I don't want to mess my phone up (best phone I ever had, also the most expensive).

I just read a thread where someone rooted this device with TWRP, using a port @Zillion created... I want to know how viable it is to root this device... I ain't looking for a custom ROM, I just want to have Magisk to flash mods, and customize Emojis, Camera2api, Viper4Android... You know.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] jejexd:
I just finished using this method. Worked perfecty. It was easy, fast and simple. Maybe the first homie was not able due to the fact he said he's a noob, but for me, this was easy AF, I've been rooting devices... Since I had my first phone so yeah.

Thanks to you @ShaDisNX255 and @Zillion, my last device was hell hole, performance was a problem and well, its a phone that has 5+ years... Low ram and blah blah blah. The device before was worse. The A33 5G, is not only the best phone I've ever had, it's the only phone that hasn't gave me any trouble while rooting. While writting this, I have finished installing/modify: Custom emojis, Camera2Api, SELinux, I have ViperFX (The major reason I root)...

Just thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] Zillion:
That port was only made for testing purposed on A33 5G, never meant to leave a private DM, but it somehow did.

I did leave A33 5G development as it's kernel was having some watchdog issues on recovery and I do not own that specific device for now.
[Samsung Galaxy A33 5G] jejexd:
I'll wait smth more efficient and safe pops up. By now, I have a perfectly rooted device with all that I want. I'll be waiting for updates.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lm089:
Since no answers came in I dared to just try. Meanwhile I'm running the device on LOS 16 with TWRP 3.5.2_9. Then flashed MindTheGapps (arm/Android 9 flavour)The switch wasn't as easy as I expected for some reason not obvious to me (somehow I couldn't get into TWRP after flashing it through ODIN. Then after the ~25th attempt it suddenly worked). Meanwhile I installed the official Samsung drivers, and maybe that helped, in combination with other adjustments I lost trace of...

I'll answer some of the above questions, for anyone who's interested:

#3: while in recovery (TWRP 3.5.2, as it is now) I still cannot access the device through adb. But I have access from windows' file explorer, so at least I can exchange files while being in recovery. Strange thing, this is the only one of my devices that behaves this way. The other day I'll try again from a Linux machine. maybe that works...

#4/5/6: boot to bootloader still doesn't work no matter what I try - devices always boots back into system

#7: Once I managed to get into TWRP the rest was a breeze

#8: I tried TWRP 3.6.0_9-0 which worked but on every boot into recovery it shows first a red notice that recovery was not enforcing SEAndroid. The notice then turns into blue and a second later TWRP logo shows up. This dowsn't happen with TWRP 3.5.2_9, so I stay there for the time being. Then I felt lucky and installed TWRP 3.6.2_9 image from running TWRP recovery, then rebooted. That again showed the red "not enforcing" message - and got stuck there. Solution was to get back into "Download mode" then re-flash TWRP 3.5.2 through ODIN.

Conclusion TWRP 3.6.2 is not fit to be used on that device (no, I didn't try 3.6.1...)

#9: since there aren't any more security updates released by google for A9 ROMs it would really be great to be able to upgrade to an A10 or even A11 ROM... anyone ever tried to use a "matisse" or "millet" ROM?

#10: I decided to use that - wiping everything that was on the device then doing a factory reset as well before flashing LOS 16. Then after first boot into LOS 16 a strange thing happened: when I made a basic setting (in regards to location services" the device told me that in a previous version I had decided to NOT allow google to use those services: after all that wiping and factory resetting: how could the device know that? By that time I had not yet logged myself into Google. Very mysterious!

#11/12: I guess I know the answer: I'm out of "Knox" now once and forever. And apparently ODIN is still working and recognizing the device.

Cheers!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jdoherty76:
Hi folks a little while since I visited. So I have 2 orbits for sale my son and mines they are about 1 year old. problem is they both have flashed roms on them and as I want to sell them I assume that the buyer would probably want the original O2 vanilla Rom. i.e. as it was delivered or if delivered with 5.x then a link to 6.1 would be sufficient. Can someone please point me to the official rom so that I can flash these back in preparation for sale?

Or will they sell okay with flashed roms?

Thanks in advance john.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] magpie2000k:
I have mine for sale with Flashed Roms.

Have sold my previous devices in the same fashion with no issues.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] farukb:
well it's ok to sell with rom

but if i were you i'd flash the original rom...

you don't have to flash wm5, rather flash 6.1 - easier to find,newer and it'll feel like some special feature ;)

why am i telling you to do so...because no one can complain to you about the original rom...and there is a possibility that he could with cooked one

you will find one in the wiki...click my signature (those are htc not O2 roms but it doesn't matter)

or if you want it to be O2...you can register the device at O2's site and download the latest rom
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] jdoherty76:
thanks folks much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] zack2172:
When I first time unlock the bootloader on my Galaxy S10e (Exynos), I can easily flash custom recovery and ROM, I've tried many custom ROM but then back to OneUI and locked the bootloader

Then the 2nd time I unlocked the bootloader but ADB isn't recognized my phone in download mode anymore, I've tried all kinds of drivers, please help me

(ADB still recognized in recovery and normal OS)

[sorry for no picture]
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] modular511:
Is there any chance I could get them to unlock it? Wont be paid for awhile still. I assume no, but figured asking couldn't hurt! Also, is there perhaps any exploits for making the oem unlock under developer settings not greyed out? I again am assuming that is a no, but I have been wondering this lol thx for any info! :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
There is no legal way to unlock your AT&T Pixel 6 Pro before it's paid off. No exploits for unlocking the bootloader, either.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] modular511:
I don't intend to use another carrier, I just seen the temporary sim unlock for sale on eBay and wondered if it was possible.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Temporary SIM unlock won't let you unlock the bootloader. It doesn't really matter what the intention is, though, there is no legal way other than paying off your device. Not judging you at all - I've been in the same spot before.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] neelchauhan:
Next time, if you want to unlock the bootloader, buy a Pixel from Google or Best Buy, and use their installment plan rather than AT&T's.
[Android Auto General] drumstick3:
I'm trying to use Android Auto with my toyota yaris and my oneplus 9 pro. But whenever I plug in the usb c cable nothing happens. The phone only starts to charge. I have tried to delete the cache and storage of the app, reinstall android auto, reboot and changing the default usb configuration in developer settings of my phone. But nothing happens, my girlfriend can use android auto in the car with her galaxy s21+ with the same cable. So it does not seem to be the car or the cable.

Does anyone has any recommendations to fix this?

Android version: 12

Oxygen OS: 12.1

Build number: LE2123_11_C.61

Android Auto version: 7.8.622514-release

Thanks
[Android Auto General] AktionCat:
2019's and below don't have Android Auto. Only 2020+

This is same issue with our Corolla Hatchbacks. 2019 only had Apple CarPlay & only swapping Headunits from a newer year was the solution to getting Android Auto.
[Android Auto General] drumstick3:
My model does have Android Auto since it's from 2021.
[Android Auto General] AktionCat:
If someone elses phone is working it's a setting on your phone. Changing the cable wouldn't hurt to try.
[Android Auto General] waltdanger:
Could be corrosion on the phones usb port. Try seeing if you can access files on your phone with a PC. I had same problem (different toyota) and realized even on PC i couldnt access files despite charging still working and using brand new cable. Soaking the port with isopropyl and cleaning it fixed the problem.

It does add a functional auto brightness. I'm running it with Pixel Experience Plus GSI.

I was wondering which rom i would install to make my phone as fast as possible without overclocking (if possible). I'm kinda new at this so I'd appreciate somebody's help please. Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place though.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ultramag69:
Do some reading... I bet you haven't even Hard SPLed your Hermes yet.

Check out the naked roms orr lite roms for more speed but emember more speed, less frills. You can also use the pagepool changer to modify the rom you want to give you more ram for the os but remember there are always gonna be trade-offs. Work out what you want then do some research on whats available (read the descriptuin given by the chef the the last few pages for any problems people may have been having.) then devcide.

ROM choice is a personal choice, what I have is for ME but may not be acceptable for YOU.

So I tried installing this the other day and couldn't get it to work (tried both the recommended in post wipe and flashing stock rom then wiping and flashing and I just got a bootloop.) so I fully flashed stock including recovery and did both types of wipe it offers then flashed twrp then flashed the rom and it worked fine. I rebooted the device today and now it's back to bootlooping. Any ideas I can try without resetting it completely again?

[Lenovo P2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Chupp4 Jo3:
That's what I meant when I said recommended in post wipe. What do you mean when you say format data before install? I assume wiping the data partition would do that?
[Lenovo P2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] amdyss:
No, wiping doesnt mean formatting. I dont remember where, but there is an option, format data partition. Confirm by typing yes and format.

I have been using this ROM for a few weeks and the experience is very good, many thanks!

Kuntao is still my daily driver and this ROM is the best for me so far.

I only have one significant problem that is also occurring with previous ROMs.

There is often a delay between the time I click the power button or the home button and the screen wakes up. I even must it them several time and then it works. There is sometimes a vibration after the first push, so the buttons seems to be OK, but the screen is still off. Then, after waiting for many seconds, the screen lights up.

Maybe someone has a solution ? It is quite annoying...
