Guys if twrp, recovery, root, magisk, ADB don't mean nothing to you - this will not be a solution for you.

I am happy to share the solution, but I can't dumb it down more then I already have. You will need to roll up you sleeves and learn what all of this means, or just hand the device to somebody that does.

It's been numerous years since I last rooted a phone. If I remember correctly I need to turn on developer mode in order to root and install TWRP.

As my last update caused the touchscreen to stop working, how on earth do I activate developer mode ??
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] slon1978:
Google, i had never do this,but 3hours google and i lern all i need for that
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] JonLuk:
Hopefully the easy answer will be to get an spen. From what I've read that might work even with the touchscreen disabled.

So what I did and was lucky enough to be able to is connecting my broken but functional original screen, let the phone boot to android, press powerbutton to turn off screen and connect new non Samsung screen. That is working now. Only thing I don't want to do is turn of my phone...there is an issue with the phone trying to update firmware in boot state to the screen, if that fails it disables the touchscreen.

By that info and post starter i tried this and that works for me now.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] gibsomatic:
i have been trying everything for the past week to get my s21 ultra SM-G998U to function again. Im facing the same issue concerning the One UI 6.1 update. At first i tried flashing an older firmware which didn't work since there were no versions with the same binary as mine. Then I stumbled upon your post. I went on to try and root my device and install TWRP but the thing is my device didn't allow me to turn on OEM unlocking (im using the s pen btw). With that in my way i kept trying multiple alternative methods including adb fastboot bootloader unlocker yet nothing seemed to work for me. Do you have any idea on how i can fix this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] srle:
To enable OEM unlock in developer settings you first need to turn off Auto Blocker in settings
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] gibsomatic:
how can i do that? where can i find it?

You all don't understand what to do,it's so easy copy paste, if you are super user in you rom

Bro could you please elaborate on step 3. I've booted into recovery how do check the rom log?

do i type '/proc/tsp_msg' on the terminal via adb?

i have done the sam steps but it don't work.

same for me, its not really working. i ordered original lcd from china with dots and it will arrive today. im gonna test it if its gonna work or not
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] gibsomatic:
Im off to a dead-end with my issue. I thought of selling my device for pieces. Can the screen still be used in other devices that doesn't have the same problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] martreintje:
Then boot, if booted just connect your screen that did not worked and it works now. Just don't power off the phone... I am working on 6.1 with a non original screen for several days now ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mDu247:
I have been trying it doesn't work. Unless I'm doing something wrong
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mDu247:
How much did it cost, are you sure its original?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mDu247:
The screen can be used on One ui 6.0. If the device is on 6.1 it won't work
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mDu247:
I would recommend patience a solution might come up. Unless its a real problem for you to be using a S pen in the meantime
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Chester the great:
i costed me exactly 51.07$. i'm from the philippines and i ordered it fromn china. i took 5 days to arrive aand i can finally use my phone now. and yes, it's original. so instead of selling it by parts, u should just buy a replacement screen from china. i ordered mine with a block spot on the side but it's not really noticable since it's small. you can contact me if you have questions or if ever you want to buy :)

I mean is there even a way to root it?

and somebody mention F samsung
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] srle:
Can you share the log?

Does touchscreen work in TWRP? Could it be you did not copy the firmware file from TWRP?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] A.nagi:
can we make an AP file to flash it through odin

or to modify official vendor img file of the rom before flashing

we can't root the snapdragon version of s21 ultra :(

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jhgiango:
Dang! Looks like this will be a waiting game for the next patch. Not a single statement from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] mDu247:
I dont think they'll fix this issue. Im convinced this was deliberately done to stop people from using after-market screens
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jhgiango:
That would be outrageous. But even so, I've read that some devices that have not been repaired also encountered such issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] srle:
can you print the output of

ls -la /vendor/firmware/y792_p3.bin

ls -la /sdcard/y792_p3.bin

Just want to compare if the files are the same size

Looks like you did everything right. When you typed su in normal ROM did you authorize the request with Magisk?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jhgiango:
yes i did authorized it. That is like the toggle thingy that turns green.

I'll print the output later, gimme an hour or two, and i'll post it here.

Will do

Sorry don't have an Ultra

No worries, thanks brother.

Great stuff!

I am so happy this is helping people, these devices are good for years to come it would be so stupid if they were left unusable.

Wipe should not affect the /vendor partition

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jhgiango:
Awesome! Thanks Sirs! Have a good one!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jhgiango:
I tried both Wipe>Format Data and Wipe>Swipe to Factory. Both options lost the touch response. Any other options that I can do without loosing touch but sets phone back to phone setup?

This worked beautifully on my S21U, great thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] A.nagi:
@srle @PK Peter

I want to ask about something that crossed my mind may somebody test it bcz my phone is us and I can't unlock bootloader

1-downloaded the AP file of android 6.0 for your device version where our touch screen used to work from samfw

2- extracted vendor_boot.img.lz4 through 7zip

3- by the tool provided down converte lz4 to img

4- move that img to sdcard and flash it as vendor image through twrp

will this work and fix the touch or not?

I think this should be a better fix bcz if it worked even when you format your phone the touch will still work
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] PK Peter:
Sorry man that really sucks, hopefully Samsung comes out with an official fix soon 🤞
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] PK Peter:
I'll give it a shot
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] srle:
It might - then again it depends on the kernel and how the modules and firmware are loaded, and if there are things that are missing that might stop the kernel from loading

Worth a shot

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] waayo69:
just thought of something that may or may not work, i dont have this issue even though my s21+ is refurbished when i bought it (possibly they used original screen 🤷).

before booting up the phone, remove the display connectors from the board itself, boot the phone normally, wait for a few minutes just for it to shut off it's display, then connect the display to the motherboard. this way maybe the OS will just turn on its touch as it just skips this part. quite risky i know as you may fry your board try to reconnect the display.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] martreintje:
That is exactly what i did and is still working...just dont poweroff or reboot your phone

Very odd question. Samsung once (years ago) released a wonderful weather app that ONLY WORKED on their phones. I suspect anthing else there will suffer the same problem.
[General Questions and Answers] Qwertia_:
I have got a Tecno 18i phone, a wonderful phone at first but after an update, it kept restarting. However, after factory resetting the phone, it randomly restarted itself when I started the camera app or inserted a sim card. The phone was relatively new and I'm not a heavy user (no games, just the occasional social media app use or a movie).

I wanted to downgrade it to Android 11 before considering taking it to get a motherboard replacement. Could anyone have the link to the original ROM I can update from "local" - I had some trouble installing it via Debian with the mtk tool.

If anyone else came across this issue, I'd appreciate it if you shared how you fixed it.

ps: many people in my country have a similar issue when their phones hit the 1 year mark, and after recent updates.

Yes the code is work in progress, kernel doesn't currently boot either. A lot of the Samsung sec_* c files require code changes.

I'm not sure I can devote enough time to ever get a working 4.19 kernel unfortunately, its a giant job for just 1 person.

Likely best to just not build sec_argos.c by commenting it in the make file
