Use firmware. Mobi
Backup your phone as you will lose everything
Enable Dev mode in settings
Enable oem unlock(enabling this will reset your phone but do not set up your phone in this reset stage)
Enable USB debugging
Go to firmware.mobi site and download your device's correct software's boot.img
Move that to your phone
Install magisk manager apk
Select patch img
Move the patched file to computer
Rename the file to boot.img and convert into a.tar format (use 7zip)
Flash using odin(phone must be in download mode)
Reboot your device and it will ask you to reset
Now reset and set up your phone as you would do to a new one
Download magisk manager again and this time click install and it will reboot
Check using root checker and volia
You are rooted :laugh:

Hi! I know that this thread is old. The instruction is working. But after successfully rooting the device. I cannot login to my samsung account and the pattern/pin/password for lockscreen is not validating the password I set. I'm on android pie.

Flashing tip for android 5.0 and up

Well i flashed android too many times now and always got lags/bugs/forceclosures/etc. But i started to wonder why, so i watched closely when i needed to flash my device again after firmware froze/broke.
And got really dumbstruck to see that the latest android mods just seemed to flash some kind of script instead of full firmware(at least for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3110?). So i did a full cleanup of device and with help of PC using ODIN flashed the latest known LEGAL firmware and redone evry step from beginning to end. So here is steps i used.
1. Download to PC all necesary files for flashing/modding device.
2. CHARGE UR DEVICE FULL POWER AND THEN SET IT TO DOWNLOAD MODE.
3. First flashed the LEGAL Firmware and after reboot let it run so u can set the settings of device (DO NOT STARTUP ANY SERVICES LIKE WIFI/ACCOUNT/USE NAME/ETC BUT SKIP THOSE PARTS) and set date/time correctly.
Then set ur DEVELOPER MODE to active but DONT give it root access.
Now u should have basic core install. Now go back into DOWNLOAD MODE.
4. Using Pc Odin now flash the AUTO-ROOT from chainfire? and let reboot fully till device starts up, check if ROOT app is shown in settings menu and install backup script, then copy/paste ur previously downloaded files/apk's/etc to ur device's EXT-SDCARD. When done set device into DOWNLOAD MODE again.
5. Using PC ODIN flash the FIRST RECOVERY FILE and let device reboot.
6. Well thats the PC PART of this tutorial?, now u can unplug ur data/power cord. Now set ur device to RECOVERY SETTINGS.
7. Now this might sound weird to u but just follow lead?
Select the wipe options and wipe ONLY the DALVIC/ART option, then use settings install from external sd-card to flash the SECOND RECOVERY FILE and restart device into RECOVERY again.
8. Now u should have working RECOVERY?. Now use the additional wipe settings to wipe the first four options called DALVIC, SYSTEM, DATA, CACHE, DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING ELSE. Now RESTART device into RECOVERY mode again, dont worry about popup saying NO OS installed but continue, next popup u REALLY MUST set or u will LOOSE root access. Wait till device has restarted RECOVERY MODE.
9. Now u install ONLY the ROM FILE and then reboot device normally.
After restart let device start-up to set settings and as mentioned in line 3 skip wifi/account/set name/etc and set time/date. check device settings and reset DEVELOPER MODE, hmm lol almost forgot this ? but set device into DOWNLOAD MODE and connect to PC again and using ODIN flash the RECOVERY FILE again so its properly installed. Now reboot into RECOVERY MODE again.
10. Install the GAPPS FILE now then install the supersu update file and reboot device normally again.
11. Wait till device starts up fully and DONT start anything else then the device settings ADD ACCOUNT, u will set the wifi/account/etc in the progress. ALMOST DONE NOW?
12. LAST STEP IS THIS..... RESTART UR DEVICE 1X INTO RECOVERY MODE BF DOING ANYTHING THAT ADDS DATA AND MAKE AN BACKUP OF DEVICE THAT IS SMALL IN SIZE AND CLEAN AS AIR?
After u backed up ur device u reboot into normal mode. After device fully started do an RESTART DEVICE 2x so all data/info/etc is stored properly. Seems device needs 2x restart for any action done that gives a lot of data, like after installing apps/games/apk's it seems to run smoother after done those 2x reboot somehow??? Hope someone can confirm if thats true?. Well now u should have an smooth running device i hope???

Japanese S7 Edge SCV33/SC-02H Magisk root and other tweaks!

This thread is for Japanese s7 edge scv33 that’s being booted up with SC-02H firmware after carrier unlocking.
This guide covers/ will help you
• Install Latest available Twrp recovery (Caution: will Trip Knox!)
• Magisk Root
• Remove Japanese carrier bloatwares.
• Make the default device language to English.
• Install latest available updates via default or, will add additional useful Samsung apps (will update the device stock apps like SMS, Touch wiz launcher, AOD, Contacts, etc to latest available.
• Various tweaks like sms delivery options turned on by default, always on display turned on by default etc-etc.
Overall, this guide is to help your Japanese S7 Edge scv33/SC-02H to look more like a standard international model.
So let’s begin.
Step 1:
All required files can be downloaded from here
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XElzbRcvlqf1CXjGK8Oiu6rmlnAvcphY
Caution. Backup all of your personal data. This process will need you to factory reset or will erase all of your data including your personal photographs, apps, videos etc.
You will also require to have a fresh piece of sd card (16 gb or more recommended) to store the twrp nandroid backup if anything goes wrong.
So, First, you will need to remove the modifications that were made to your device stock boot image. If you have flashed the modified kernel or have rooted using super-su, then, you will need to undo all the changes. You can flash the stock boot image file only but I would recommend you to flash the whole latest firmware that you can find easily over UPDATO Firmware website to start better all over again.
Here is the link to the latest SC-02H android 7.0 firmware:
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=AD3D69507E2D11E7963AFA163EE8F90B
Download and extract it. You will find 5 files. You can ignore the HOME……. file. Flash the 4 firmware file using latest Odin.
After flashing, let it boot up. Finish the setup wizard and turn off the device.
Step 2:
Flash the TWRP that you downloaded from here. Download Link is same as above.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XElzbRcvlqf1CXjGK8Oiu6rmlnAvcphY
Twrp Bug: Device will reboot to twrp recovery if you choose to power down the phone from recovery option. You will have to choose “Reboot System” from twrp menu to solve this.
After installing, boot into twrp recovery. Go to Wipe and at the bottom right, you will have option to format data. Perform a Format data process. Then, make a TWRP backup to your sd card.
I repeat. Make a backup. This will help u a lot if anything goes wrong
Step 3:
Time to install magisk.
Extract root.zip file and there you’ll see magisk.zip
Flash this magisk installer file from twrp and reboot the device.
Install the latest magisk manager app apk.
Now your device is rooted with the latest magisk available.
Step 4:
Time to remove the bloatwares.
You will need ES file manager and System app remover from playstore.
Grant super-user access to both apps. Navigate to device/system/preloadFactoryResetOnly using es file manager and delete all the contents inside that folder.
Download the apps.zip file from here
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XElzbRcvlqf1CXjGK8Oiu6rmlnAvcphY
Extract it to your pc. Copy all the extracted apps including their folder to your device and paste it inside the same path i.e, device/system/preloadFactoryResetOnly folder.
Important: You will need to change the copied each app file permission to RW-R-R.
You do-not need to change the folder’s permission. But you will need to change the each apk’s permission one by one. Long press on the apk and then go to properties. Tick mark on (read-write, read, read).
But there will still remain some Japanese DoCoMo bloatwares. You will not be able to remove it by simply using system app remover.
So, use the system app remover app to track down the bloatware’s location by long pressing and delete it by using es file manager. Remember, only delete the bloatwares that are found in device/system/priv-app and device/system/app folders.
Caution:
You do-not need to super trim down your system in hopes for getting more internal space or whatsoever by deleting the bloatwares that you don’t know. Just delete the DoCoMo apps that you can see in the app drawers.
So be aware.
Factory reset after the above step.
Step 5:
Now comes the last part:
CSC Tweaks:
Download the 3 modified csc files from above link. Copy and replace them to path device/system/csc
Change the copied file permission to (rw-r-r).
To change the default device language and set the sms delivery option on by default, copy the Customer.xml file to your pc and edit it by using Notepad++.
Find the line as shown as in the picture below and modify as in it. Save it and replace it back to where it was from which will be device/system/csc and change its file permission again to rw-r-r.
Now turn off your device and boot into TWRP recovery. Perform a factory reset and reboot.
You will have latest apps with all the custom changes including your default language changed to English.
No need to install magisk manager apk as it is already there in the apps.zip folder.
Done!
Credit goes to all the rightful owners.
Special thanks to Mr. Buddha Tuladhar again for the phone.

Is it necessary to flash 2017.03.07_SC02HOMU1BQC4 and 2017.04.07_1BQC4_Gobal_ManhIT.zip ? Or can i just simply flash the latest firmware 2017.12.12_SC02HOMU1BQL3 and root my phone?
Thank you, great job on compiling all this! It took quite a bit of study, but I understand now. Thanks again.
This root works.. but it kills NFC and Beam, Is that a known issue?
I tried this out about 15-20 different times this weekend. I was trying to get obtain root without losing NFC or Beam. (I need NFC on a daily basis).
Galaxy S7 Edge SC-02H (Docomo)
I have no problem installing TWRP. I can get root by either SuperSU or Magisk. Both kill NFC though.
I have tried so many different procedures.
1) Flash stock room (see below *) using Odin 3.12.3 and 3.12.5 (.5 works better)
As soon as installation was complete, I tested out NFC to make sure it works. It does. Then configured Developer options.
2) Then install TWRP (3.1.1 and 3.2.1) via Odin 3.12.5
3) Format then wiped (I also tried wipe without formatting)
4) Installed Magisk via TWRP. (I tried SuperSU as well)
5) Rebooted to system. I also tried Wiped cache, then reboot to system.
6) Once booted up, the first thing I did was check and see if NFC or Beem work. No.
Next I installed Magisk Manager app. I tried the one posted here. Also tried updating to the latest. And also tried installing the latest version of Magisk first.
I tested out root by using ES explorer and opening up the root directory. It worked.
I checked to see if NFC or Beam worked afterwards.. no.
7) Deleted bloatware. Followed this post's Step 5 exactly as is. Root stilled worked. NFC still didn't work.
So as much as I tried.. is it a known that NFC will not work if rooted?
* Firmwares tried:
SC02HOMU1BRG1
SC02HOMU1BRE1
SC02HOMU1BQL3
SC02HOMU1CRH5 (8.0)
SC02HOMU1BQC5 (Travis82's Nougat firmware)

Hi, what Twrp Work in Android 8.0 you can Shared whith me?
3.1.1, 3.2.1 and 3.2.3
They all worked. I had originally started working with 3.1.1 and 3.2.1. However, I tried the latest 3.2.3 because I couldn't get NFC to work. I did it just to give it a try.
But all three versions that I listed had no problem installing.

How to install TWRP on Galaxy S7 Edge (SC-02H)
TWRP Installation:
1) Download and installed Odin 3.12.5 (or the latest)
2) Turn off phone. Pressed and hold Volume Down+Home+Power at the same time to get to Download Mode. Once you see the Download Mode page, let go of the buttons. Press Volume Up to accept. (To cancel, press Volume Down )
3) Open Odin and click on AP. Load the TWRP file from your computer.
4) On the second tab of Odin, uncheck "Auto-reboot" (you need to have auto reboot disabled in order to successfully install TWRP). Press 'Start'.
5) Once the Odin status changes to a green "Pass", the installation is complete.
At this point, your phone will still be in Download Mode screen. For this step only, you will need to do two steps back to back. First, press and hold Vol.Down+Home+Power in order to get the phone out of the Download Mode screen.
As soon as the screen changes, press Volume UP+Home+Power.
You will see TWRP load.
That's it. You have successfully loaded TWRP.
From here on out, you will need to press Vol. Up+Home+Power in order to boot into TWRP. If you reflash your phone back to stock firmware using Odin, you will lose TWRP and will need to repeat these steps in order to install TWRP again.

This thread is for Japanese s7 edge scv33 that’s being booted up with SC-02H firmware after carrier unlocking.
I need help in order to compile all of these tweaks into an Odin flashable file so that users can simply flash it and make the changes.I would also like to add App-lock feature and international Samsung keyboard with secondary symbol in but can’t seem to make it work. So, if you are interested or have tried, please let me know.....

I am also struggling about this. I think the problem only concerns TWRP or Root. However I think the problem is TWRP, because when I flash stock rom, nfc ok. Next, i flash TWRP (not root yet), nfc has been disabled now. So i think TWRP causes this problem. However, if i reflash stock recovery, everything remains unchanged, NFC is still turned off. so it is very contradictory.
Now I think of a test, after installing all (root), backing up all android. Then flash again with stock rom, check NFC. Finally, restore the backup. The goal is to completely remove the TWRP from the process but still root the device. I hope it will work. Will try if i have the time

Phone is rooted now but I'm running into R/W permissions issue.

Managed to root but cannot update

Hi!
Xperia ZXP was running the official Firmware fine. Then, I just decided to root. I followed this video:
Got my phone properly rooted.
Now I keep getting notification of an update that I had before but cannot install it. Also, I cannot setup my company work profile as it detects root.
I mainly wanted to use Cheat Engine that why I rooted.
How do I apply latest update?
How do I hide root status?
Download Flashtool and latest version of Xperifirm. Find latest firmware with Xperifirm. Should end in .107. Download it and decrypt it with Flashtool. Download Newflasher. Unzip Newflasher into the folder you have the decrypted files. Plug your phone into your computer. Make sure you have the correct driver. Developer option and usb debugging enabled on your phone. Put phone into flash mode and hit newflasher.exe and choose "n" for the first two choices and let it run. That will give you the latest and final update for this phone.
Now use twrp to install the latest Magisk version(search online), also have Magisk manager app(Play Store) on your phone. Once that's done and you've rebooted phone open Magisk Manager and select the menu in upper left corner and go to Magisk Hide and if there's the option to hide whatever app that is detecting root and causing problems, select it and it should no longer detect root. If the problem app is not shown then I don't know. I believe there is a Magisk Module that may be less app specific and hide Magisk from everything.

I'm stuck at the decryption part... I downloaded the correct firmware for my phone and it is quite a load of files. But, the decrypt tool in Flashtool finds nothing to decrypt

You have to select the location. Click on Tools, then Bundles, then FILEset Decrypt. On the line where it says source folder there's a small box on the end. Click it and from there go to your harddrive, users(you), flashtool, firmware, downloads and there you will find the firmware that you just downloaded. Click on it and that should unpack the firmware. Then select all the files to convert. That will place the converted files in the same location as the firmware. Don't bother with removing the .ta files. Do create the partition folder. See link below.

The above link will take you through all the above steps. You will lose user data. You can remove the USERDATA X Flash ALL and that should save your data but no guarantees.

The latets Xperifirm also extract right after downloading so the decrypt step is not needed.
I'm flashing a I write. I'll be dealing with the next part now:
Now use twrp to install the latest Magisk version(search online)
also have Magisk manager app(Play Store) on your phone
Once that's done and you've rebooted phone
open Magisk Manager and select the menu in upper left corner and go to Magisk Hide and if there's the option to hide whatever app that is detecting root and causing problems, select it and it should no longer detect root.

TWRP has to be flashed or installed from store?
Was going to attach the file but had upload issues. What you want is twrp 3.3.1-0-maple.img. Once you have that put phone in fastboot mode ( volume up while plugging phone into computer) then go to the place you downloaded the above ( unzip it to a folder that also contains adb and fastboot unless you have that installed system wide). Open a powershell or cmd window inside that folder and type: fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-maple.img. that'll open twrp on your phone in recovery. Then you can flash Magisk and that'll root your phone. I'm typing this from memory. I believe I have that right. If you want to install twrp on the phone itself umm, I believe you flash the .IMG file to recovery partition. You'll need to have both those files in your phone. Let me know if I got that right. If it doesn't work, no worries, just start over. These phones are hard to brick; believe me, I know.

I have downloaded the TWRP image and I have the android platform tools as well. Right now, my mobile is working with the latest ROM from Xperifirm and I'm not sure about root status. It was rooted before I did the firmware update. It is latest now and no app is complaining.
Current status:
- OEM Booltloader unlocked
- USB Debugging ON
Question:
- I need to know will if I'll lose all data on the phone?
- If I use the fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-maple.img command, phone wil have TWRP as recovery and will be in this recovery mode? I need to copy Magisk (apk?) already on the phones hardrive so I can install from there?

If you didn't lose data in upgrading the firmware you won't lose it installing Magisk. Using TWRP from your computer does not install it. It only puts you into recovery using TWRP as the menu. If you want to have it installed you need to flash the .img file to the recovery partition while in TWRP. All this does is eliminate the need to use a computer every time you want to use TWRP.
You more than likely lost root when flashing the new firmware. So Magisk apk is the manager app. You also need to have Magisk 20.4 as a zip file in your phone. When in TWRP select mount and make sure the location where the zip is is selected. Then go back and select install and then go to the location of the zip, select it and slide the slider and it will install. Go back to main menu and power off. People like to wipe and reboot, I find not wiping if you don't have to works for me along with powering off and then restarting the phone.

Mission accomplished.
I did all this so that I can use Cheat engine to chat in some silly games plus a few simple ones I made with Unity. Turns out, Cheat Engine fails to show running apps to select from... what a trip...

Everything works perfectly. All apps working with root and Magisk is hiding root from required apps. Cheat Engine is working with Root. After that, the issue is with Cheat Engine. It is not working as expected. I see an emty Apps list and cannot fing the game I want to cheat in even when it is running. This is off topic as the thread is now complete. Just saying I didi all this for a dissapinting app.

Oh well, at least you got it updated and working. Maybe it'll take some searching somewhere else to get that other stuff worked out.
Just a side note; I used to work for Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum at his Throughbred operation in Lexington.
Excuse me, does anyone know how to root xz premium docomo ubl no ??? Now on Android 9 Pie, please help.
I believe the Japan market version can't have the bootloader unlocked, thus, no root.

[ROOT GUIDE] T860 root no TWRP method

This is an advanced guidance.
I will explain exact procedure presuming other things are already known for those who are know what are they doing.
Therefore, if anything goes wrong I don't feel responsible for whatever you do.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Device will, format itself. Do initial setup without setting anything because you will need it to format again.
3. Boot device and turn on OEM unlock and USB debugging in to developer options in system settings.
4. Reboot device again.
5. Download stock firmware (you can use FRIJA or SAMFIRM tool from XDA.)
6. Unpack firmware zip
7. Connect tablet to your PC
8. From folder of unpacked firmware COPY AP file to your tablet SDCard/Documents folder.
9. Download and install latest Magisk Manager.apk on tablet.
10. Open Magisk Manager you will see "Magisk is NOT installed" in red letters but no problem.Set it EXACTLY like on picture 1.
11.Click "install" and you will see screen on picture 2.
12. Select "SELECT AND PATCH A FILE" and select that AP firmware file you previously copied from your PC
13. Magisk will start to patch a file. When patching is done...
14. Close Magisk Manager and open your SDCard/Documents folder on tablet. You will find there "MAGISK_PATCHED.TAR" file.
15. Copy that file from tablet to PC
FLASHING
Turn off tablet and put it in download mode
1. Open on PC patched ODIN 13.3 or 13.4 and UNTICK "reboot automaticly" on ODIN settings
2. Select files for flashing BL to BL, CP to CP, CSC to HOME_CSC....
BUT EXCEPT ORIGINAL AP FILE SELECT "MAGISK_PATCHED.TAR" FILE !
3. Flash all files to your tablet and disconnect from PC when ODIN finished
4. Reboot tablet into recovery and format data and cachee ! Restart tablet and wait few minutes to load
5. Set up tablet as usually.
6. Install Magisk Manager.apk and open it...It will do some patching updates then reboot itself.
7. Open Magisk Manager again and install Magisk zip from manager. Manager will root and reboot device itself.
8. You have a root without TWRP
.
To keep this guide short, same video procedure I found here...It is for S10+ but applicable for this tablet as well.
ROOT WITH MAGISK
.
Thank for that clarity .. i just get an Tab s6 and i needed i simple and recent tutorial.
This guide worked perfectly. The one with twrp didn't.
Thank you.
This didn't work for me.
3. Flash all files to your tablet and disconnect from PC when ODIN finished
4. Reboot tablet into recovery and format data and cachee ! Restart tablet and wait few minutes to load
I can't get into Recovery Mode to format. It freezes on the boot logo, I'll hold Volume Down + Side Key to power off, Volume Up + Side Key to boot into Recovery Mode but it just tried to boot normally and freezes on the boot logo.
Is it better to root first or flash TWRP.
EDIT: Duh!!

Before step 10 ensure that you have a Wi-Fi connection. I think Magisk requires it. Magisk would not produce the drop-down till I connected to the internet. Then everything worked fine.
Good man, thanks so much!

You need to restart tab after flashing BUT again in DOWNLOAD MODE...not in recovery ! Then flash TWRP and restart in twrp recovery.You need to untick AUTO REBOOT in Odin before flashing TWRP.
Not able to shutdown
After rooted with Magisk,my Tab S6 is not able to shutdown,no matter which methode I use,it just restart itself.
Does anyone have this issue?
worked perfect on oneui 3.1 aswell thank you
I rooted my Galaxy Tab S6 using the Magisk-only method after updating to Android 11. I had trouble with the post-Odin step (pressing power and volume up right after screen turns off) so I had to do the flash a couple more times before I got that right, and everything shows as rooted now.
However, my 256GB internal storage is only showing up as 32GB! Is that a firmware thing, or a partitioning thing? How can I fix it?
Used ther same method on my rooted tab with the May update (T865XXU4CUE1_T865OXM4CUE1_DBT) - magisk-patch AP, flash all files in Odin, after reboot the device is rooted.
BUT after another reboot (or rather shutdown and boot), root access is lost and cannot be restored in any way until I re-flash the device with the same firmware again.
Any solution to this?
6. Install Magisk Manager.apk and open it...It will do some patching updates then reboot itself.
7. Open Magisk Manager again and install Magisk zip from manager. Manager will root and reboot device itself.

This never happens. I even uninstalled Magisk Manager after patching, flashed the firmware, reinstalled the latest Canary Manager, still no patching or reboot happening.
Edit: just rebooted and shutdown a few times, root sticks. Before, I held VolUp as described in many guides until the "secured by Knox" logo appears, now didn't touch any button except Power.
Oh well...
