[SM-N9005] Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Safestrap
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
BETA
I had an XDA user request a build of Safestrap for the SM-N9005, and figured I might as well share it.
NOTE: Safestrap will not trip KNOX, because it doesn't not flash kernels
I know that the N9005 is an unlockable device but some users may want to save the warranty and only mess around with TW-based ROMs. That's what Safestrap is for. If you're unlocked you probably want CWM / TWRP installed as your recovery so that you can flash AOSP-based ROMs.
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 2.7.1.x (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots (2 on the N3 due to partition size and internal space) for flashing ROMs. These ROM-slots allow for different sizes of /system, /data and /cache partitions. The defaults *SHOULD* be good enough for flashing the stock-based ROMs.
NOTE: The bigger you make these partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
For more information you can read up here:
http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/how-to-safestrap/
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
[NEW FOR v3.75+ KK Safestrap] Requirement: busybox. If your stock ROM doesn't have it built-in you need to grab "Busybox" from the Play Store and run the installer.
Requirement: External SD card
Requirement: Allow APK install from Unknown Sources
Download the Safestrap APK
Find the APK using a Filemanager tool and open it on your device, then click "Install".
(If updating from an existing Safestrap you might be warned that this will over-write the existing installation. Click the "Yes" equivalent to this message.)
Once installed, open up the Safestrap application as you would any other app.
Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
That's it for the installation! Read below for a brief overview of Safestrap Recovery v3.x
INSTALL VIDEO by DMX: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RZIyeUMK-Y&feature=youtube_gdata_player
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting (or the hard button underneath each option).
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
Push the APK up to your sdcard.
Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.
Go into your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button
THEN, open a "file explorer" of some sort (even TW "My Files" will work)
Browse to where you pushed the APK
Click on it and install like normal
Once installed, open the APK
Grant SU access
Use the "Install Recovery" button
All set, now you can reboot and re-activate whatever rom-slot you were using

KNOWN ISSUES:
PLEASE USE STOCK TOUCHWIZ FROM SAMSUNG FOR YOUR STOCK ROM -- FLASH TO ROM-SLOTS
If you install Safestrap on a rom-slot it will show "not installed". *DO NOT INSTALL SAFESTRAP ON A ROM-SLOT*
Rebooting from a rom-slot will end up at a blank screen. Battery pull and re-power on.
Sometimes the installation doesn't work correctly. If you don't see the splashscreen after a rebooting. Install Safestrap again. (DEBUGGING THIS AS I GET TIME)
If you don't see files on "Micro SDcard" for some reason try tapping that area and swapping to "Internal Storage" and then back again.
No Aroma installer support. This is due to the stock S5 kernel framebuffer. To build a recovery which worked, it needed QCOM patches. So will Aroma.
If you try a .zip file with an Aroma installer, it will most likely just hang.
If you use the "4way reboot" mod, then "Reboot Recovery" button in the Safestrap APK won't work correctly.

wonderfull work.
My knox is 0x1 but i think lot of people like your work.
Thanks
never thought it would be released for hltexx.
i read about it some time ago and was really surprised about the rom slots feature.
i like the idea of having an alternative rom on my device.
downloading it now, will give some feedback later.
Thank you Hashcode!!!
Atm i can say that backuping works fine....looking for an second rom to test with X-Note as Stock, Aroma installer is not supported for now.....
Sent from my Safestraped SM-N9005 BlackBox
i successfully installed echoe rom 5 into rom slot 1 !
i like safestrap very much, easy to use and self explaining.
if you already have twrp installed, you do not loose it but you don´t need it anymore.
booting to recovery brings up your original twrp, a normal reboot shows the splash screen from where you can launch safestrap.
trying to install a rom with aroma installer of course doesn´t work but i tried just to see what happens :
the screen just freezes and you need to reboot by holding down the powerbutton, thats all.
you can restore a twrp backup of an aroma based rom, that you made from the stock rom slot, to another rom slot (i did it with a backup of bobcatrom).
but it looks like it uses the internal storage directory of the stock rom slot.
edit: seems like the original storage/emulated/0 is always used. i can see all the files from stock rom after installing a complete new rom.
so this isn´t really good for having 2 totally seperate operating systems installed, is it ?
have to read some more about it...
thanks a lot hashcode !
edit:
from the safestrap blog:
DON’T RESTORE A CUSTOM ROM-SLOT BACKUP TO THE STOCK ROM. THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BRICK YOUR PHONE.
Great Job
Thanks Hashcode, great tool!
Using it on a SM N-9005 without problems except I have a couple of ROMs that do not activate Wi-Fi.
Any clues?
I would love to be able to use this on the N900T

I've been using the AT&T Safestrap Recovery on my Tmobile N900T and it works perfect. I flashed the AT&T X-Note ROM port (in slot 1) that they have and it works fine on the N900T. It does install the AT&T CSC, but installing the TMO one causes crashing in the dialer (which also happens in the international rom currently out in the TMO forum). So, just keep the ATT CSC like it is. For Wi-Fi calling, I just boot back into the Stock slot and use the stock ROM.

If I understand correctly right now all ROM slots boot using (all of them) the same kernel (which of course must be stock Samsung kernel in order to keep knox 0x0).
This means that with kernel 4.3 (and corresponding bootloader) all slots must also be 4.3, while with kernel 4.4.2 (and corresponding bootloader) all slots must also be 4.4.2 - is that correct?
Will existing version work with 4.4.2 or a new version will be needed?
Will this ever be able to backup efs like the official twrp? Also will this ever support aroma? I know you said the kernal doesn't support it, but I was wondering how mobile Odin can do it without tripping knox
Love your work, it is working like a charm

Hi Hashcode
Yipee!!!
I'm so glad you decided to release this on the n9005.
i'm off on the weekend, will test this and let you know the outcome!!!
Again
Do not download. Please give another link.
@nguyenson318
Mirror 1: Goo.im Download <--- not working
Mirror 2: Crackflashers Download <--- is working
So far this is working perfectly on my note 3 n9005.
Have backup my stock (actual it a custom rom!!) and installed a couple of roms in the free slots and all is working.
Still testing the software out but its very good, esp. if you want to try all the rom being released without messing with your main system.
Still need to test whether restore works and at the moment i have notice that i still have CWM as my recovery but when booting to Safestrap TWRP takes over.
Like i said i'm still testing this great piece of software but Hashcode has done a great job making this work on the n9005
Well Done
I download from n9005 note 3 (Next Browser) but only 0.1KB is stopped.

Thanks for creating a killer app and i hope you keep on improving this product
If you wish me to test any aspect of your software on my handset, please let me know
I'm sorry if i sound like an absolute noob...but this requires root.
Afaik rooting the Note3 trips the Knox warranty flag......thus no more warranty.
Am I wrong?

LG Stylo 2 Plus K550 Stock Rom Unrooted/Tweak-less
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BRICKED DEVICES, BOOTLOOPS, NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION, OR SPONTANEOUS
COMBUSTION! YOU ARE CHOOSING TO FLASH!!!
What you need -
1) TWRP
2)A brain
What is this ROM?
This is the Stock ROM for the K550 Variant of the Stylo 2 Plus. This ROM is completely Stock for the exception of having Adoptable Storage available Out of the box, and Kernel Fixes To be used on K550 ONLY (I mean, you can try on the MS550 but I'm not sure if It will SimLock to Tmobile
How is this different from [K55010r Stock Rooted Odex for T-Mobile LG Stylo 2 Plus by pvsgh]?
1) This is a purely stock ROM extracted directly from KDZ, no mods at all
2) Kernel and Security fixes that ROM by pvsgh doesnt have, fixing ADB (which doesn't work on his ROM, which was the main reason I had to make my own since ADB is crucially needed for speedy builds in my line of work)
Also, @pvsgh, DM me if you want the boot.img to use for your ROM so you can fix these issues
Will you make this for Andrioid N, when it comes out as well? Will there be a De-odexed version? What about for the MS550?
Yes, I am planning on also having a completely stock ROM built from KDZ as soon as Android N comes out. I will only make a De-odexed version if there is demand for one. In order to make one for the MS550, I need testers first as I only have K550.
Did you give up on LineageOS?
No, I'm just waiting for Android N
How Do I install this ROM?
First of All, Download the ROM and Place it in a Directory where you can find it. Then Boot into Recovery, and Go to Install, and select the Downloaded Zip File in your Selected Directory. When prompted to, Flash. IMPORTANT! - IT IS RECOMMENDED TO FORMAT DATA (USING THE BUTTON THAT LITERALLY SAYS "Format Data" IN TWRP) IF ATTEMPTING A COMPLETELY CLEAN BUILD OR YOU MAY BE LOCKED OUT OF YOUR DEVICE AND CONTENT LOCK WILL NOT WORK ANYMORE
FEATURES
- Literally Stock
- No Mods
- No Root, No Busybox, and No Xposed Out of the Box (User Install-able)
-Custom Stock Kernel with ADB and Security fixesTo be Included
-Nothing

First time Install Instructions
0) Preparation
0.1) Backup your important data to PC
0.2) Ensure you are running Wiko Fever Android 6 already (also/especially when your device is not wiko fever, but a clone). If you are not, please update to it, before continuing here (replace the preloader from the wiko rom with your stock one, then use 'firmware upgrade' mode in sp flashtool. NEVER use 'format all + download')
Extra steps, if you are on blu life one x:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76003104&postcount=81
0.3) Download “twrp_wiko_fever_oreo.img“: [url]http://www.mediafire.com/file/e96x8ltlyka392e/twrp_wiko_fever_oreo.img[/URL]
0.4) Download “madOS_8.1.0_fever_2018xxyy.zip“ [url]https://www.facebook.com/MediatekAndroidDevelopers/[/URL]
0.5) Optional, Download “Google Apps (aka Gapps)“: [url]http://opengapps.org/[/URL]. Choose: “ARM64“, “Android 8.1“, “nano“ or “pico“ package
1) Unlock bootloader (if not done already):
1.1) Boot for first time your device. I recommend to NOT register/login/add Wifi/add accounts/etc., because the unlock process DELETES all your data in the device. So to go more fast, skip all, and go directly to SETTINGS. In section ABOUT DEVICE, enable the developer options with eight time picks over “Build number”. Then in SETTINGS/DEVELOPER OPTIONS, enable the option “OEM unlocking” and “USB debugging” (if not enabled already), and choose to alollow usb debugging in the popping up window.
1.2) Boot the device in the BOOTLOADER mode (using ADB: "adb reboot-bootloader"). Execute in your computer the command “fastboot oem unlock”, say YES with “vol+” and “power” buttons. Then select reboot. This ERASES completely your device (factory restore), but the bootloader will be UNLOCKED! Two reboots needed.
2) Flash the recovery and boot to it. (choose option a) if you don't have another TWRP already installed, else choose b))
2.1a) Boot in the BOOTLOADER mode (using ADB: "adb reboot-bootloader").
Then execute command “fastboot flash boot twrp_wiko_fever_oreo.img”;
and then “fastboot reboot” (this is a trick to directly bring you to the newly flashed recovery. You can't boot up your current/stock rom at this point anymore).
2.1b) Boot to your current TWRP. Choose install --> image, and select “twrp_wiko_fever_oreo.img“. Then choose “recovery“ as the target. After few seconds, and succesful installation, hit “back“ several times, then go to “reboot --> recovery“
3) Install
3.0) Optional, but recommended: Go to "Wipe --> Advanced Wipe", click "Cache" and then "Repair or Change File system". Then select "Change File system" and choose "F2FS". Swipe to confirm.
Hit "back" three times (you can again choose a partition to change now). Choose "Data" and do as above.
Hit "back" several times, to get back to the main menu. Choose "Reboot --> Recovery".
3.1) While already in recovery (TWRP), connect your phone to pc, and copy “madOS_8.1.0_fever_2018xxyy.zip“ and the Google Apps to your phone.
3.2) Go to "Wipe", and directly slide the slider to the right.
3.3) Get back to main menu with the "back" button
3.4) Go to "Install" and hit “madOS_8.1.0_fever_2018xxyy.zip“, then uncheck all boxes and hit "Add more zips", now choose the Google Apps.
Confirm installation by swiping the slider to the right.
3.5) Reboot System

Great
This .zip is pushing to system/etc, so this .zip won't work here on Oreo, where everything is moved to vendor/etc
For the time being for the blu, you can either updated the updater-script to push to "vendor" instead of "system" or root it, and move your baseband manually to vendor/etc
About the alsps ( brightness ) what's the sensor used in blu?
We need to enabled it I suppose

just because adaptive brightness is not working , does not mean it is the sensor.
If sensor was not working , there is another test (check) you can do.
make a call, then put phone to head and see if screen goes off.
I had before when light sensor was not set correctly, when making a call the screen went black as soon as start a call, then could not get screen back on till 30 seconds after other end hung up the call.
I am away from my LOX now and for few days , so cant give direct test of light sensor.
attached just in case is usefull here are sensor libs from BLU-LOX. They are in /system/lib/hw and /system/lib64/hw.
I believe on oreo they go into /vendor/
Can we flash it over stock Lollipop ROM of Micromax Canvas 5 ??
I have a question that Can I flash it over the stock Lollipop ROM ?? existing kernel is 3.10.65.
Thanks

just because adaptive brightness is not working , does not mean it is the sensor.
If sensor was not working , there is another test (check) you can do.
make a call, then put phone to head and see if screen goes off.

Hello, I write from Padova, Italy,
I have the WIKO FEVER 3GB,I have the problem that after upgrading to MM (Android 6.0), device not connects to PC and no charge. The device is recognized ONLY if it turns off.
Can I do this update procedure with this problem?
I can not connect to the PC because device is not recognized. Can you help me? Can I root through an app installed by the playstore without using pc? Thank you so much for the answers.

Why root? To update to oreo, you don't need root... But you still need to copy the new rom to your phone, as well as unlock the bootloader and install the twrp recovery. This needs to be done in fastboot mode by pc. I'd suggest to just try it
Unfortunately I am not very experienced, but I am very interested in solving my problem. I want to install this ROM, but without having to connect the device to the PC.
If I copy the ROM on the SD card. Can I then install?
I am in process of installing new oreo twrp and MADOS.
During install of TWRP, I loose adb authorization. (adb session is "unathorized")
in "prop.default" it has
Code:
ro.secure=1
security.perf_harden=1
ro.adb.secure=1
ro.allow.mock.location=0
ro.debuggable=0
is this intentional?
additional question,
Adb authorize connection window comes up multiple times even after putting check mark on remember this choice.
I think the adb auth problem is my pc, my other phone just started to do this too.
edit:
I have tried couple times to use blu firmware inside vendor folder. But not able to get baseband to be known.
tried just adding blu files ontop of original rom files.
tried removing rom files and adding blu files
tried removing whole folder then adding blu folder
each time I get unknown baseband.
I checked permission and ownership each way I tried and I set it to rw:r:r and root:shell just like original rom version, but not working for me.
One and more questions,....
1. Our bootloader is blocked or already unlocked?
2. If is locked, to unlock the bootloader of our device wiko fever which app I have to install?
3 if isn't locked, how I install a custom recovery like twrp manager?
4 how I boot the custom recovery twrp manager? Maybe if I switch off the device and reboot it, starts automatically the custom recovery?
5 at the end, from twrp can I flash the ROM Oreo?
AHH , last question, can I flash this ROM from my phone with Android MM?

•••• Qualcomm Moto E4 (xt1766) SPerry Only ••••
DISCLAIMER:
By proceeding further, you are assuming sole responsibility for the integrity and functionality of your device. Although this ROM has been thoroughly tested on my own device, I take no responsibility for bricked or otherwise inoperable devices incurred as a result of this thread. Follow the instructions carefully, and things should go smoothly and without negative results.
SPECIFICATIONS:
• Moto E4 (XT1766) SPerry
• Sprint, Virgin Mobile, Boost Mobile
• Android Version: 7.1.1 Nougat
• Build No. NCQS26.69-64-10
• System Version: 26.231.8.sperry_sprint.en.US
• Radio Version: M8920_15000.280.06.58.05R
• Kernel Version: Linux 3.18.31-perf
• Security Patch Level: September 1, 2018
FEATURES:
• Stock Configuration
• Systemless Root - Magisk v17.1 Stable
• SafetyNet Pass (ctsProfile & basicIntegrity)
• Zipaligned /system/app & /framework
• Optimized RAM efficiency
• Disabled AVB & dm-verity
• Disabled Force Encryption (Opt-Encrypt)
• BusyBox v1.29.2 (Static Binaries)
• TWRP Flashable Installer
PREREQUISITES:
An unlocked bootloader and TWRP custom recovery are required to install this ROM. IMPORTANT: Use @squid2's TWRP v3.2.1-r1 or older for installation https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=27958 Newer builds will cause a conflict with the /vendor & /oem partitions when installing my partition updater zip. After installation, you may update TWRP to a newer or current version.
The conflict is due to the partition scheme of my updater-script, and is not due to any fault in @squid2's current TWRP builds. Here is a link to @squid2's TWRP thread for the Qualcomm Moto E4. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...velopment/twrp-twrp-moto-g4-qualcomm-t3655160 Please be sure and hit the thanks button on his thread if you use his work.
NOTES:
• If you have previously installed the 26.221.3 OTA to bring your build version up to NCQS26.69-64-10, you should have no need to install the partition updater zip prior to installing the ROM. However, if you are unsure of your present firmware build, or if you have not installed the latest OTA, the partition updater should be installed per the instructions below, in order for the ROM to work with the best results;
• As to force encryption, the kernel fstab has been modified to disable this OEM security feature. However, you may still manually encrypt your /userdata by fully charging your device, going to Settings>Security>Encrypt Phone, and following the on-screen prompts;
• This OTA update did not augment the baseband (radio firmware) version (M8920_15000.280.06.58.05R), which remains unchanged from NCQS26.69-64-8. While the radio firmware did receive a couple of minor patches, the changelog in this regard is insignificant, so I did not include these in either the partition updater or the ROM. If anybody wants these radio patches, leave a comment and I'll fix up a TWRP flashable installer.
INSTRUCTIONS:
• 1. Download the ROM and Partition Updater from the download link below and save them to your device's external storage (because the /usedata partition needs to be formatted to disable force encryption, saving the downloaded zips to internal storage would be futile);
• 2. Make a backup of any important files on your device;
• 3. Boot your device into TWRP recovery mode;
• 4. Select Wipe>Advanced Wipe and select System, Cache & Dalvik Cache. Swipe the action bar to commence the wipe;
• 5. Again select Wipe>Format Data, input the word "YES" when prompted, and swipe the action bar to commence the format. Reboot Recovery (often necessary to ensure proper mounting of /usedata after a format);
• 6. Select Install, navigate to the saved location of the Partition Updater zip, and swipe to commence install (this updates your /oem partition, /rpm primary bootloader, /tz trust zone partition, and /devcfg partition to Build No. NCQS26.69-64-10);
• 7. Select Install, navigate to the ROM zip, and swipe to commence install;
• 8. Reboot System.

If you have taken the OTA update and you are on Build No. NCQS26.69-64-10, and everything is running smoothly, you have no need to install anything here.

It'll be up in a couple of days. By the way, there is no danger in taking the OTA. No reported bugs, instabilities, etc. And you can still flash the debloated ROM when I post it.
Thanks for taking time to do this and keep support going for the E4. I'm planning on trying the debloat when you post it.

The radio was not updated with the new OTA. The Baseband Version remains the same as the previous build, M8920_15000.280.06.58.05R
That means the voice calls won't work on Custom ROMs.

Voice, MMS/SMS, and 4G/LTE data works on my device with LineageOS 14.1 on the 05R radio firmware. Although I am aware that an earlier OTA (NCQS26.69-64-8) did break the cell radio for some device owners running custom ROMs.

No. But if you want to install this ROM, you will need to format /userdata in order to disable force encryption. If you want your data encrypted, you are not required to format /userdata.
No, I want only to install the partition updater.

Then formatting data is not necessary. Keep in mind that the partition updater does not change your radio firmware. You'll still have the 05R radio version after updating your partitions. The partition updater updates your bootloader, /devcfg and /oem partitions.
So if your radio didn't work on custom ROMs before, the partition updater likely will not change that.
Why this partition updater size is big compared to the NCQS26.69-56 one.

Because the /oem partition is large (656 MB)
Why isn't it included in the 56 one
LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 12, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.
Instructions:
Unlock bootloader
Boot into download mode
Flash recovery using heimdall or odin
Boot into recovery right as it finishes flashing
Flash ROM using adb sideload path_to_ROM.zip command
Optionally flash GAPPS the same way you flashed ROM
Format data in recovery
Reboot to system.
Downloads:

Reporting Bugs
DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
DO NOT Report bugs if you're using TWRP
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

Steps I followed from @Gully.Moy that worked perfectly:
Unlocked bootloader as per guides no problem
Downloaded latest stock firmware from Frija and extract
Copy the AP_xxxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5 file to phone storage
Copy Magisk manager on your phone https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/tag/v25.2
Open Magisk manager, select 'install' next to Magisk, select the .tar.md5 file and patch it
Copy newly created magisk.tar file from phone download folder to computer
Flash via Odin 3.13.3 with standard BL CP and CSC from Frija download, but the magisk .tar file in AP slot.
Boot into android and reenable USB debugging (not sure if necessary).
(Recovery mode combination is volume up + side button with USB plugged in)
I am now in the first boot of the ROM that I copied to the internal storage and flashed with TWRP (as my device is not recogised in fastboot and doesn´t let me sideload via adb it closes) but seems to be in an endless startup loop and it failed to install the gapps also when I tried to, the provided recovery cannot be flashed with Odin @Doomvrr thank you.

What is the context of the above statments, I ask because -
One of the primary reason for running a custom ROM is for rooting, and the primary reason for rooting for a LOT of users is the ability to run Magisk and EdXposed/Riru.
This one is exspecially confusing, the vast majority of users flash custom ROMs with TWRP. Does the recovery that needs to be flashed with this ROM as comprehensive as TWRP..?

Xposed modules may cause stability issues on the system due to their nature. Debugging the issue becomes a hard task because there can be a ton of reasons as to why it happens, and you'll be most certainly reaching out to the ROM maintainer to help you fix something not even related to his work.
I can't say for sure but I guess it's because TWRP has had some problems to keep up with the changes made to Android on recent years due to the maintainers' private life and the fact that some changes were groundbreaking, like moving the recovery to the boot partition instead of having its dedicated partition, as it used to be until a couple of Android versions.
TL;DR: maintainers post these statements so users can discard possible known causes of issues beforehand, and to avoid complaints about pieces of work that aren't their responsibility at all.

Imho and experience this nearly always down to the Xposed modules not xposed itself. I have been using xposed since my Galaxy S and its been reliable and solid enough that after 10 Samsung devices later (S, S2, S4, S5, Note5, S6, S7, S7edge, Note9, S20FE) I will always install it. And the Xposed modules I run ar XpirvacyLua, Firefds kit [Q], GravityBox [Q] which are then Managed by EdXposed. I tend not to update the modules unless there is a specific issue that an update will fix.
Nope, check the twrp thread i the section we are upto 3.7.x which supports Android 12 (and should support 13 due to it being an incrmental update on 12).
Thats a fair comment.
Hello, is there a possibility to release this also for snapdragon?
