Hey ppl! How do I root a galaxy s20 Fe 5g sm-g781w
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Get your frimware from samfrim, patch AP file through magisk, unlock your bootloader ( by fastboot or that blue screen when you press both volume buttons when the phone is off), disable "auto-reboot " option and flash Patched AP file with other rom files, after flashing boot into recovery and wipe data and you successfully rooted your device 😀

I will still here if you want to ask some questions:)
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] 3mel:
this is incorrect...

they can't root their device as it does not have an unlockable bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
That blue screen method works !

When you boot into it, 3 choices appears, one of them is called" unlock bootloader " click on that and that's all
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] 3mel:
the Canadian W variant can't be unlocked !!
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Only if he has the carrier unlocked :)

Whatever lets see the result from OP
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
@3mel is correct, North American market Samsung devices with Snapdragon chipsets generally cannot be bootloader unlocked. Usually this is specific to US market carrier variants but AFAIK only international (F/DS) Snapdragon models can be bootloader unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Seems that i was wrong, but... How is unlocking bootloader cannot be done in that device, OEM unlock option is hidden ?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
If the OEM Unlocking toggle in Developer Options is not visible, unlocking the bootloader is not possible. As I've explained in other discussions, the OEM Unlocking toggle functions as a "safety"; when this is enabled, the bootloader can be unlocked. If it is not enabled (or cannot be enabled) the bootloader cannot be unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:
Well, i apologize for wasting your time, i mean, you all :(
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] billa:
I was wondering, can the Canadian models below have their bootloader unlocked? Or they are locked just like the US versions.

A12 (SM-A125W MTK chipset)

A32 (SM-A326W MTK)

A53 (SM-A536W Exynos)

A54 (SM-A546W Exynos)
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
They don't have Snapdragon chipsets, so there's your answer
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] billa:
So due to non-Snapdragon chipsets they are rootable? I read that the chipset doesn't really matter, it's the region that it's sold for what makes the bootloader unlockable. Also read that even Snapdragon chipset models in Asia are rootable. Seems like what matters is the region it's sold for.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
No...I said:

This ONLY applies to Snapdragon SoC powered devices in NA region, or at least the US market

ROW Qualcomm devices and all non-Qualcomm devices are not affected
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] billa:
So to clarify, non-Qualcomm devices in the US market should all be unlockable (at least in theory)? I've seen a root for US MTK models A12 and A32 a while ago, but not sure if the new A54 which is Exynos can be bootloader unlocked. Maybe you have more info on this.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
TBH I've been out of the Samsung game for quite a while and I'm not sure there is a hard and fast rule anymore.

Used to be, with older devices, there were carrier specific Snapdragon variants. For example, with the Galaxy S6, there was the G920P (Sprint), G920T (TMobile), and G920V (Verizon). The Sprint and Verizon models had SD chipsets and could not be bootloader unlocked, whereas the T-Mobile variant had Exynos and could.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] billa:
Ya I remember those back in the day. Some US MTK models can be unlocked using BROM mode via test point which bypasses the bootloader security. A few Qualcomm models like the S7/S8/S9 had a root via Eng Boot, but those boots aren't leaked anymore.

I have an A13 on U3 so might try this.

xdaforums.com
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Right. I'm not talking about those. I'm talking about Exynos vs Snapdragon SoCs.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] billa:
IMO those want/need root are better off going with international models which have unlockable bootloaders instead of messing around with restrictive workarounds on US mode;s.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
If it comes down to buying your phone out of pocket...Sure.

But remember that a lot of folks are getting their phones at a discount through their service provider. If I wanted to trade my Pixel 5 in, I could get a Pixel 8 Pro at a pretty good discount through Verizon - but I wouldn't be able to unlock the bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Questions & Answers] billa:
Well yeah, while US carriers are offering a discount, pretty much all their phones are bootloader locked, except for a few MTK models which can be unlocked the back-door way (BROM). Over the years I have collected a few international "F" models like the S7 and S7edge, which are easily rootable for testing purposes. heh
[Samsung Galaxy S21 FE] Roman5:
Hi. I just broke a tempered glass screen protector on my S21 FE. It fitted great over the screen. I bought it at a local shop several months ago and they installed it for me and did a clean job of it, no airbubbles. At the time they installed it, I was using a different rubber case and a few months ago I changed to a Spigen case. The protector worked fine with both cases. Unfortunately I don't know the brand of that particular glass protector.

I've just been back to the same shop for a replacement. He selected a glass protector which was for the S21 FE but this time he didn't install it well. He was on the phone while he did it and there were airbubbles. He had to make adjustments a couple of times which wasn't great. He seemed to have got rid of the airpockets and said don't put the case on for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, I put the case on and then airbubbles appeared. He then said the case wasn't compatible. I don't know if that's true or if they just installed it badly. I got my money back though.

So now I'm not sure which protector I should buy that will be ok with my case. The case is a Spigen Tough Armor for the S21 FE. To be honest, I never thought there would be any issue with whatever case I'm using as long as I bought glass designed for my particular phone model.

I can buy various branded packs of two or three glass protectors for the S21 FE on Amazon but does anyone know if they're more than likely to work ok with my case and perhaps the shop was talking nonsense? I've seen that Spigen also do glass screen protectors but they're quite a bit more money. Thanks for any advice.

PS, the plastic installation template tool that comes with some protectors, where you lay it over the phone to help align the protector and eliminate bubbles, does it work well?

Someone who can do twrp for Chinese tablets with Allwinner A50 processors
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] khurramkarar5786:
Hi,

I tried to flash lineage 20 with twrp after wiping all the data system. The process was a success and then it asked me to reboot but after pressing reboot it gave another warning that os not installed. However, I still rebooted. Now the phone is stuck on the black screen with no access to recovery mode or anything at all. The PC detects the phone when connecting via cable and with detecting I mean the PC just gives a tingling sound butt no internal storage or anything is available neither I am able to access the fastboot or recovery mode with adb/manually (Pressing power and volume down) . Please let me know how to turn this on ?

The phone is moto g6 plus.
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] Thermo-nuclear war:
Try going into download mode and reflashing the rom. For the only phones i know, you can go in download mode by first linking a cable between your pc and your phone, then keep pressing both power and volume up button, until you have something that says that you can unlock bootloader if you want to. Then, if locked, do unlock it and reboot the phone in download mode again, but if its unlocked you dont have any extra thing to do. Then, just choose the option "download mode". Hope this helps.
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] Tiki Thorsen:
Some G6 Plus have a weird bug where the screen is on but black while booting, including fastboot.

Mine has this and the only thing that display correctly is TWRP (Lineage recovery did not).

Try doing "fastboot flash boot twrp.img" and if it boots to TWRP you can flash the twrp.zip from there.

Alternatively, you can use openandroidinstaller.org to install the Unofficial LineageOS or PixelExperience, since it does not require you look at the screen. (I suggested those two custom roms because they are a single file install)
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] khurramkarar5786:
Guys, do we have any other solution for this ?

Thank you for the response. However, the phone is not opening neither can I reach the recovery mode or fastboot mode. I only get a click sound when connecting it to the computer otherwise, no screen is visible

The problem is that the screen is black I cannot reach the fastboot mode even nor can I detect the fastboot mode by checking through adb. There has to be a different solution to this. Please help me out.
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] sdp_OF:
Already tried adb & fastboot via terminal on PC?
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] khurramkarar5786:
yes tried both via terminal, nothing comes up.

Hi Guys, found a solution to the black screen. First you just blank flash this to enter the fastboot screen which worked in my case and then convert the xml flashfile to a batch script and just double click to get the original firmware back. yayyyy
[Moto G6 Plus Questions & Answers] Tiki Thorsen:
Regarding the detection of fastboot, make sure you have the drivers installed (should be under "optional" in windows update) and just to be safe, if you have a PC with only native USB 3.0 or newer ports, try connecting to anything that has a USB HUB 2.0 or another older PC.

You should also check "Device Manager" you make absolutely sure that the phone is being detected by the PC.

After you double check that and you still can't get the phone to communicate with the PC in fastboot mode, it could be that something went wrong during the flashing and the phone got bricked.

(Did you flashed the "copy partitions.zip" before installing LineageOS?)
[Redmi Note 10S] yfby:
how it happened:

I was just flashing orangefox recovery again(i done this like 4 times now and previously i was running evolution x), after i booted in to orangefox then i tried to reboot into system without any installed rom, and before that i removed the sim tray without turning it off, or it could be just corrupted, it could be anything(because i dont know).

current situation:

--keeps bootlooping until battery runs out

--cant access orangefox recovery, and cant access fastboot(and yes i tried pressing power+up, and power+down)

--my life is ****ed up, im about to die if dont fix this(my parents is going to kill me this is my 4rth phones in 2 years after i hard bricked 3 of them and lost the other 1)

Let the phone bootloops until it power of itself, remove SIMs, charge the phone, boot into recovery and wipe data (wiping data is up to you, it is not a nessesary step), boot into system with NO sims and that's all, the phone should work .

If it went bootlooping (if these steps did not work)so you have to reflash whole stock rom .
