Can we use the TWRP 3.2.3-1 listed here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a7/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-1-galaxy-a7-2018-t3876798
You did not give a link to which TWRP version you used. So just asking.

No other twrp is available for our device.. So, yes this one

thanks! work like a charm

I downloaded the Indian version and installed it on an a750 FN and it works ....
I will keep trying more things
good job

Delete

The Root works perfectly on the A750G/DS, the only thing that does not work properly is the TWRP, does not recognize the internal memory, only recognizes the SD card
PD... An Official Recovery query is only for version F and GN or also works in G/DS versions

how could I return my battery at the original state? Im having fast drain ..

Hi! I have followed the steps correctly and rooted my Samsung Galaxy A7 2018. However, whenI restart my device, it always got stuck on download mode. Any help I can get?

This happens when you don't flash magisk zip file, did u flash that after installing twrp? And after that did u install stock recovery? Try this, if it does not work, start from scratch again.

I did flash magisk after installing TWRP. I also installed the stock recovery. But still, it goes back to download mode when I restart my phone.

I guess I'll be staying at Android Pie for now. I think I'll be waiting for other alternatives that doesn't boot into download mode when restarted. Somehow, I thank you for sharing info on how to root Samsung Galaxy A7 2018.

It shouldn't be like that, but that's how it is right now. I'm not sure if there's any fix available, but I guess an updated version of the recovery will be released soon, that has this problem fixed..
Yeah this method works I have done it and easy as drinkin beer

Same here. Tested and working. I am on Mokee rom now.
Thanks for the guide but I found something wierd happening. After succesfully flashing twrp and rebooting it goes in twrp when I restart after that and try to go in recovery with volume up +power it takes me to stock recovery? Any ideas??:/
So version 3 works without any touch problems?

I'm using the v3 linked in this thread and the touch problem still exists. I have to wait 2-3 minutes before it works.
I tested the 2.8.7.0 version from miui.com and touch screen worked immediately. I'm not sure if it was just lucky or not, because I only tested it once. Maybe worth trying it and see how it works?
It'd weird because the one I have some times freezes and some times doesn't

Just reflash TWRP then reboot to TWRP, it should ask you if you want to either use it as read only or allow modification, select allow modification. Hope that helps.
Yes with the modded version on xiaomi.eu the touch works!

S7 International g930f - Cant install Stock Boot Image after Frp Unlock & More

Hey Xda,
I have an S7 International G930f and the stock boot image wont flash in odin without bootloop, after frp unlock. So basically ive flashed the G930F(ENGroot) file, but the second part, flashing the boot img isnt flashing without bootloop.
So yeah- my phone is acting weird, im surprised it even works.
Running Stock Rooted 6.0.1 with TWRP
I've rooted/recoveried many a Samsung, but all this Dmverity, FRP unlock, these newer protocols have me confused.
I've got OEM unlock ON which is still a tad new to me-coming from S5. Unknown Sources Enabled. FRP Lock shows as OFF.
I've followed an FRP unlock guide-XDA here but the boot image wont take. Tried many times. Maybe its my July 1st Security patch?
Can someone tell me what i need to do to get this phone to where it is FRP unlocked, dmverity gone,keep root/recovery and update it?
p.s. I'm getting tons of bugs, random reboots, and WiFi passwords aren't saved on reboot. Plz help!
Thank you!

Thanks for the reply. If you are referring to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/recovery-official-twrp-herolte-t3333770 thats what i followed.
But i did have some confusion about this section below from said thread. Im not sure what OP means by "if you only want a bootable system partition". Of course i would like this to be bootable, AND i would like to install SuperSU.
Its worded strange. Ok lets assume i did this incorrectly. Would you suggest i start over, factory wipe, then move forward with that threads directions?
If twrp and super su are already installed and working, but i dont have the right boot.img flashed, should i start all over or start somewhere in particular?
10. If you want to be rooted with SuperSU:
Download the latest SuperSU by Chainfire.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the SuperSU zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
You will need an external SDcard for this method, if you don't have one you will have to use adb sideload to install SuperSU.
If you only want a bootable system partition:
Download the latest dm-verity and force encryption disabler zip.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
Note: This does not disable the forced encryption on Bxxx firmware, only Axxx firmware due to a change in vold by Samsung.

"if you only want a bootable system partition" means if you don't want to flash SuperSU, but want your phone to boot correctly with TWRP installed, if you don't follow that step, regardless of SuperSU, your phone is a soft brick
Flash TWRP
Wipe Data (Yep, to disable encryption, so backup first)
Flash DM-Verity~zip
Flash Super-SU.zip
Reboot

Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite got messed up
Hi there!
I have just received my new Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite phone and wanted to pass all of my data from my old phone to it in a way that it was required to be rooted.
KingRoot didn't work on this new phone, so I unlocked bootloader and tried to install TWRP recovery on my phone.
Installing to the recovery partition did not work. I searched the error it gave me and found a thread saying that flashing it to the boot partition worked for them. So I did. Next thing that happened is that my phone did not boot into the OS (operating system) ever again. It only booted TWRP.
I have since been able to remove TWRP (though I made a back up of it) but the phone still stays on just the loading part before going to the OS.
I have since been able to get back the fastboot and stock recovery, but the phone will not start into the OS anymore.
How can I fix this?
I have been searching for ways to restore my android to the 8.1 Oreo version that it was.
Can I do it with this Tool All In One? Please help! Thank you in advance!! Much appreciated!!
hello
i have unlocked bootloader and wait for TWRP and want to root my phone.

Twrp does not have good results for most people.
With this method I will lost all data on my phone and I do not want to setup phone 1 more time. Twice was just enough
I know that already but thank you anyway

If your bootloader is unlocked, you should not lose any data just installing magisk
Yes...my fault. My BL is unlocked already.
But I posted in that thread...because of some reason does not work. But this is not thread about it
Thanks for help
So...Installed TWRP but does not recognize anything in internal storage. Not recognize SD card.
When boot again to TWRP goes to "something"...some kind of empty stock recovery with android logo and nothing more.
Oh man...that will be interesting ride...to put TWRP or root device

Because your not supposed to install the twrp image just boot from it and if you do install it then you have to flash the original boot image for which ever 8.1 update your on to get rid of it.
This is explained on the team win page for daisy wish i had read that first after re flashing my os twice and boot image once trying to install this am just using the phone as is for now until i get the urge to try again

oops sorry i should check what thread this is before trying to answer a question i blame alcohol .
Thing is there are posts out on the net that advices people with the a2 lite to install the twrp image to their inactive slot and not to just boot it and that's where things seem to start going wrong.
This has absolutely nothing to do with this tool and sorry i just dived in here and confused people.
maybe some kind passing mod will get rid of the post apologies again

Bring to life and not delete all

I was rooted on 9.5.4 with the Patched Boot Image. I had 2 modules enabled in magisk (call recording and substratum). Wanted to update to 9.5.5 and did this:
1. Download and install update
2. No reboot
3. Open Magisk and disable the modules
4. Select Install install and then Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA)
5. Rebooted
6. Phone booted so I opened magisk and enabled my modules
7. Rebooted
Now the phone doesn't boot up properly. It goes all the way to first screen asking for my passcode and then turns off and does to stock recovery. Please someone tell me what to do so I don't lose my data!!
Install TWRP, install stock image.

If I was I would turn a lot of people to ash...
But as for my phone since I was offline the world for 3 hours and got no answers I decided to try to flash stock boot.img
After flashing it in fastboot phone booted up normally and I have everything. Now I'm on 9.5.5 and want to root the phone... Should I go with the TWRP method? I was thinking to delay to flash TWRP since it isn't stable yet. If I open Magisk in phone and select install and then again install and then select option "Select and patch a file" and select boot.img, will it work?

The TWRP version is stable enough for use just now. I would flash the rooted boot image (You will lose wifi if you're on 9.5.5) and then flash TWRP installer along with flashing magisk again, then download one of the kernels provided (I'm using ElementalX on 9.5.5 and it's working fine) and flash that in TWRP, then you should have TWRP, root and working wifi, etc.

When you say rooted boot.img...What do you mean? I took the stock boot.img, put in phone memory and selected in magisk. Magisk made a new boot.img and flashed that. After that phone didn't boot up like before and went to recovery mode. So to fix it I flashed again stock boot.img
I updated the same way as you (didn't disable my Magisk modules though). Everything went OK, kept root, but something borked in my /system folder and now can't make any changes in it (buildprop, hosts).
I'm not installing any unofficial TWRP, going to reflash the patched boot.img again to see if that works. If not, will go for a clean install. Worth a try?

Rooted boot image : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/guide-root-oneplus-7-pro-patched-boot-t3931205
Follow that guide but, as I said, your rom is a later version so your wifi will break until you flash a compatible kernel, I'm using ElementalX with 9.5.5 and it's fine.
You would be best installing TWRP as soon as you can from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...nt/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322 since you'll be best using this to flash ElementalX
I'm guessing you flashed an incremental ota and not the full system image in step one? Might be your issue.

Flash stock boot IMG and uninstall substratum overlay themes, u will always want to do that before u update, then reflash patched boot image, then u can reinstall your themes

No he said he was able to boot after the update, it was when he enabled his modules, more than likely its a substratum theme issue

OxygenOS C.36 out but DON'T INSTALL THIS UPDATE FOR NOW!

I got a KB2003 - ONeplus 8T EU
Oxygen Updater told me today there's an update avaliable, version C.36.
I donloaded it via the app and updated manually.
Phone did not boot up.
I was able to boot into recovery once where it said the system is corrupt.
I managed to enter fastboot mode. It was recognised on my PC by fastboot but no fastboot command are not accepted. I couldn't even turn it off again.
About 2 hours passed.
Then I managed to turn it off and it booted up like nothing happened, but I cannot download the data from it. Nothing is showing up in my browser via cable connection.
I am not feeling safe anymore ... I think I will roll back to C.35 if possible ASAP.
You need to keep an eye on https://community.oneplus.com/wap/circleDetail?id=1034260458221338626
C.36 is an IN only version at the moment of OOS 12
Update: since I first wrote this post there have been reports of C.36 being available now for both EU and NA.
Thanks.
Can I download C.35 and install simply install it?
The C36 is rolling out to other versions now. See https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/updates-thread.4188149/
I've just received the KB2005 (NA/global) version when I checked in Settings>About device. Normally the EU version takes longer to roll out.
I don't think the system updater will let you downgrade to C35, but you can try.
After 1 night everything seems to work well. I did not try to Rollback or did anything.
Fastboot is back.
Still do not understand the issue. LOL
I updated it earlier. Now it's stuck on reboot loop :/

Yeah, I was able to fix the boot loop temporarily and was able to boot once. It gave me enough time to retrieve all the important data

long as you know how to recover from brick with msm tool. but steps i use is oxygen updater to download full ota. (not incremental update) .put the 3gb zip on pc. use payload dumper to dump the zip (only for boot.img) take boot put on phone use magisk Canary to patch that boot. put boot on pc, reboot to recovery and fastboot boot magisk.img. once phone boots use magisk to directly patch boot and its rooted
