Patching AP with Magisk Manager should give you root. I following these steps with all my devices.

Hi ! I have download the ladt Firmware OneUI 6.1 for my S23 and when I want flash on Magisk the AP file it crash !?

My Galaxy S23 are root and don't want to brick it.

Do you know how update OneUI 6.1 with Root ? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S23] ggkameleon:

After with Odin flash all files with the magisk patch no error and green pass but make it quicly.

My S23 restart no mistake but when I go on settings Always One UI 6.0. I don't understand why !!?

I make it again in somes days.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] waterpolo:
Did you placein Odin the AP file (application firmware) in his slot?

The patch init_boot.img in tar file must be in the Userdata slot.

[Samsung Galaxy S23] ggkameleon:
Hi ! Unzip the AP & BL files for 2 files "Boot and Vmbeta" after compress it on Tar. Flash this file on magisk for creat magisk patch.

And on Odin I flash the magisk_patched.tar as AP, together with BL, CP, and Home CSC.

All work fine with PASS. But Always on 6.0.

I stay somes days because I'm on holidays.

Thanks for response
[Samsung Galaxy S23] ggkameleon:

[Samsung Galaxy S23] waterpolo:
The magisk_patched.tar must be in Odin Userdata slot and the AP file from the firmware in Odin AP slot.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] Jobudden:
Long story short.

I picked up this cheap tablet because i want to install it in my car permanently. If it gets stolen it's easily replaceable. It is a SM-T227U

Upon buying it I've found out a couple things. I can't root it? And

I cant use android auto on it.

I've heen digging through these forums but the threads are kinda confusing. Would anyone have time to walk me through a root process and show me how to obtain whatever os I need to accomplish what I'm trying to do? My biggest concern right now is getting android auto to connect wirelessly to my Kenwood.

I side loaded the apk but, my device still won't connect for audio. Only calls. Which I don't have lol

Using TTS exploit or using one can unlock bootloader since MTK is easily unlockable.

I've got some time ago this app for free and never really used and now I wanted to give a try with a JPG comparison and for my surprise it is way better than stock, in the attachment the samples.

This is the link for the app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riseupgames.proshot2

For the Proshot picture I shot in: JPG, P, ISO 50, no noise reduction, Detail turned off, IMG+ turned off, Topaz Denoise and Sharpen.

Proshot seems to be way better than stock, its a pitty it does not support 50mpx yet.

Hmmm, the stock image looks either out of focus or soft by motion blur... would it be possible to show other samples, also from other scenarios ? That would be great :)

Does Proshot support all lenses on the S23U ?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] citytrader:
Both pictures where shoot in the same condition, I will try to do other test but the test shows detail and color rendition
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] PhilMorin:
The problem is that this is a painting so we have to point of reference in our mind as to how exactly it looks in real life. If you go out and take a picture of like trees and buildings, it's easier for us to compare. Though I agree that proshot does look sharp and nice! Just hard to tell if it's not too sharp compared to real life?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] citytrader:
I will do more testing because in some test I did today seems that even if I disable in camera sharpening, the app applies sharpening. Other thing I found is noise pattern this camera creates that is more difficult to Topaz to remove (somethin that not happen with Canon for example) but I will arrive to a bette conclusion when I do more test.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] CarlosLopezES:
What about ProShop post-processing? Will be great some examples of outdoors pictures vs stock cam...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] AJ732101:
As long as the RAW issue with ProShot on the S23U is not fixed this app is virtually unusable with this device.

When shooting RAW you always the the image from the 1x module even when using 0.5x, 3x or 10x.

At least the guys at Rise Up Games are aware and looking for a way to fix the issue.

Also video stabilization is not present or working on the S23U in combination with ProShot.

I think that this apps are in diuse, but now I`m using a Samsung J7 prime SM-G610M, with an android 8.1.0 and 16 Gb in storage. I wanted to extend the storage with a 64 gb SD card, so i intalled TWRP 3.6.0 and rooted with superSU V2.82.

Then I maked 2 partition in the SD Card

1. Fat32 with 29.74 Gb

2. EXT4 with 29.74 Gb

Finally I intalled Link2SD and mount the SD partition in the app. After reboot, I get a message saying that the app needs a "quick reboot" because the SD isn`t mounted. After the reboot, the sd partition work right, but, and here is the problem, when I try to link to SD card, this message shows up.

I don`t know what I did wrong or what is missing. I tried format the SD with EXT2/EXT3/EXT4 even with FAT32, none worked.

Someone can help me?

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] s3axel:
Thank you for this IMHO good list off possible actions to save battery life - a lot of things are part of my regular "optimization" routines but a few new aspects are there, I'm happy to try them out ;)

Some of the items sound contradictory to each other, but maybe this is because I am reaading them wrong:

E.g. #11 and #23, but maybe I misread what you mean by "modded" ;)

Also I would be interested in a bit more background on #12 because i would have assumed that apps in deep sleep indeed are good for battery life and on top OneUI is adding devices to deep sleep automatically, so does #12 mean that it would be advisable to disable this functionality (if it can be disabled, not sure right now) ?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] KantmiS:
AD 9. 120 hz will not drain battery more than 60hz? I don't think so...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ssj100:
Thanks for the post. I do many of the things listed already, and some variations of others. But funnily enough, I do it not because of saving battery (the vast majority of the time, I "finish the day" with 60-70% battery remaining, meaning I don't really use my phone much or in ways that "power users" would - therefore, I'm not overly concerned about saving more battery), but because of security - for example, disabling nearby devices would reduce the chance of being "hacked" by this attack vector.

This also means minimising the installation of "third party" software, or even non-default Samsung software, as all software security experts would understand that increasing amount of software code in a device also increases the "surface area" for hacking to take place.

I've previously owned the S7, S9+, and S21 Ultra (all Exynos chips), and the S23 Ultra has the best battery life of them all (obviously relatively speaking). I think I haven't noticed such good battery life since the S7. I do still miss the S7's amazing standby drain with AOD always enabled - it was as low as ~0.5% per hour by default, which is unheard of now. Now it's closer to 1% per hour, and over a 12-18 hour day, that can "hurt" battery quite a bit. However, the convenience of having AOD always enabled trumps any battery concerns for me, especially considering I still "finish the day" with 60-70% battery remaining.

I guess one of the points I'm making with this post is that having AOD disabled (or tap to show etc) is probably the biggest battery saving tip in the entire list! In my opinion, practically all the others barely save any battery, if any. However, users will need to consider the convenience of AOD always enabled (eg. acts as a night clock, or quick way to check the time during the day by just glancing at the phone) verses saving battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ssj100:
I'm also curious about #12, as I'd have thought it would overall save battery by not being able to be spontaneously woken up and/or send notifications. One counter-argument would be that if it's an app that you use at least relatively regularly, having to frequently keep "waking it up" might end up using overall more battery.

For #31, why is clearing cache partition not a good thing to do? Can someone direct me to what "app booster" is?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] android updates and roms:
Hi, thanks!

11 talks about alternatives

23 talks about modded apps like there are few modded apps like spotify premium modded where you don't require premium but still won't see ads.

12 will mess up your notifications at the initial, I would say that phone can handle that deep sleep recommendations so that you can take actions accordingly.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] s3axel:
You need to download "Good Guardian" in the Galaxy Store, Battery guardian is part of that App....

Battery monitor apps like BBS of course need some resources to run in the background and they are running 100% of the time to track battery usage...

The apps mentioned in #13 are at least Samsung apps, but of course these also may use background resources/battery - I would think to a lower extend as they are not running contiously but rather on a (relatively loose) schedule or even need to be triggered manually....

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] prox4ion:
Hi, I purchased a refurbished ATT version of this watch on Ebay and found a few issues. I'm in Canada, so I'm thinking it has to do with region locking.

1. The software update keeps repeating, it installs but then constantly says an update is available and installs again and again every few minutes. I have disabled it for now.

2. When installing the watch faces in the Wearable App on my S22, its seems to freeze alot, mostly on the health faces.

3. The ECG and Blood Oxygen app don't connect to the phone, saying it's not available in the region or no compatible devices found.

Otherwise, everything else seems to work, other health apps, along with Google Assistant, Google Pay.

I'm thinking of returning this watch, but it concerns me that unless I'm buying new and directly from Samsung that I might be getting a non-Canadian variant and thus face these problems as well. Can anyone share any insight? Much Thanks.
