Root Note 20 - General Questions and Answers

Hey all, new at all this and the site. Forgive me if I'm asking a ridiculous question. But, can I root my Note 20? And get Google gone and make it safe? (Safe = not tracked. By apps and google/gov, and freedom to not worry about my privacy)
And who has the patience to walk me through it.
Same question for Galaxy J3.

That's a good question . I'm looking to root without tripping Knox on my wifi version I just purchased off of ebay. I'm looking for an tar.md5 to start with.. Any help would be appreciated.
Same here. A White WiFi Note 12.2 64GB I bought off eBay, which according to Samsung's website, doesn't exist.
Hello,
Great tablet... I just got one off ebay myself and I see towelroot does not work- app not installed. I Allowed unknown sources in security. I am curious as to why you guys are concerned about tripping the knox since this I think this tablet would be out of warranty, unless you would not want to trip it for resale?
Any success on rooting so far? I am no too experienced but the first thing I'd like to do is get the apk from this enhanced s-note on all my other note tablets and phone.

I tried 2 different versions of Kingroot with no success.
Hi I used the cf auto root - check the 1st pic I attached. Once you plug in a windows pc it should download the samsung drivers then download that specific dl in the pic (I can't copynpaste on here)- it gives you the latest odin program download. It really easy from there. Once you reboot, supersu is there. I then dl'd root checker, titanium backup, busybox, root explorer and most important twrp manager from the play store. It was all too easy. I'm on 5.02 and I did check the knox and it started but stopped and said it couldn't be accessed at this time. I'm keeping the stock rom and just wiped dalvik and cache in recovery.

The most effective way to root this tablet is with Cf-autoroot. It will trip the Knox counter but it will permanently enable SuperSU on your device.
If you root your device you will NOT be able to take OTAs. If you run rooted stock firmware it will alert you that an update is available but most likely it will fail to install. I tried updating my firmware while rooted via Kies and it failed each time.

S7 Exynos root, unrooted and knox 0x0500/ s pass / secure folder problem...

Hi everyone !
For noob user like me : root S7 = risk to no more working knox samsung app : mainly samsung pass / secure folder. Sad i've didn't seen that before rooting -_-
For others : I prefer to open a new thread, because i've read many post about knox problem or only pass or only secure folder after root... people saying yes, no, work, don't work, update, offical stock rom, snapdragon, magisk, or nothing :/
I got a S7 G930F from France (exynos?), now model version show g930fxx4esc5, i've try root, pass, [...] and no more knox app.
- I've seen index-samsung-galaxy-s7 thread, put oem unlock, followed CF-Auto Root link http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
> alert : KNOX WARRANTY : If you have a KNOX-enabled device, using CF-Auto-Root will trip the KNOX WARRANTY VOID status ! (but didnt know what it mean XD)
> site didn't looked noob friendly to me so i looked for another one......
- Then I've followed a french link : https://www.androidpit.fr/comment-rooter-samsung-galaxy-s7-et-s7-edge
> So i took files on this page, without using more my brain -_- (didn't seen page is dated 2016... and dunno if the auto root file must be a strict model version...)
- odin said pass ! Samsung pass and secure folder dont work... T-T (i've noted my model version g930fxx4esc5 dunno if it was same before)
> with the message error I got the bad idea to remove oem unlock (perhaps it was bugging the app XD)
- then.... verification problem at boot... reinitialise dont work, useless, wipe...
> So i put my brain finally on, xda, i tried to get back official stock rom version g930fxx4esc5
- from samfirm depreciated thread i've found this site : https://updato.com/firmware-archive...=XEF,BOG,FTM,SFR&v=Oreo(Android+8.0.0)&rpp=15
- update all 4 files in ODIN BL / AP / CP / CSC, phone work but knox is 0x0500 and still no Spass no Secured Folder. Here i am :/
Général questions :
1- These knox problems are only for s7 exynos ?
2- Root and samsung pass never work ? still have someone who say yes
3- Rooted and now unrouted and samsung pass don't work ? still someone who say yes
4- unrooted + full wipe + stock rom and samsung pass don't work ? must i have to try several official rom perhaps ? trying will fail my knox more ? still someone who say an official rom will work
5- Other root method could have work with knox ? but too late if already rooted ?
For me, S7 exynos, R16NW.G930FXXS4ESC5, knox 0x0500 :
6- How did i mistake ? Like i'm not in knox 0x1 but 0x0500 do i have a try ? or if i try i'll have 0x1 and no more try ?
7- Can i have back knox related apps or almost same apps (mainly samsung pass and secure folder) ?
8- Can i go back to initial stock rom ? a real samsung official rom ?
9- Can i try again following from http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ then this link https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ look for G930F, take the R16NW.G930FXXS4ESC5 version who has the same than my phone ?
10- Must i follow post like : https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/samsung-pay-knox-warranty-void-t3549449 or it will be worst hard to get back to normallity ?
11- What is Magisk ? before rooting ? after rooting ? for rooting ? Can i try magisk solution ? or it will be worst hard to get back to normallity
12- On french support samsung-forum just say go in samsung store they got tool to repair with a real official rom for 40€ . i dont believe.
edited : 13- Like that can i still have samsung android updates ?
If no solution to get back samsung pass and secure folder, i'll re try to root phone at least i'll have that, even if knox go to 0x1 it won't be worst ? others problem with app on a rooted phone ?

what you mean by covered ? i bought it since more than 2 years, no more warranty:/
so i'll have to pay, and pay for what ? they will change mother board and ask me to pay ? they will install an official rom who work ?
edit : just phone them, i don't have to flash my phone, i have to go in a store they will check my phone, and see what they can do and tell me the price for it.
i prefer to see what people on xda have to say before

thanks for your comment of 2-3 lines to answer 12 questions, i've listened to you :
"In europe rooting your phone and knox 0x1 is not hardware damage and will be covered by samsung" >> covered by samsung so i call them, they said no.
"You dont need to call them." >> i dont need to call them ok so dont say me it will be covered by samsung
"If you rooted once you can never use samsung pass , secure folder samsung pay again. For updates just flash back to stock" >> answer to ask 7 and 8
Now i dont won't to be unfriendly with you but i don't think you are alone on this forum, and i don't think you answered to the other questions.
I would like to know more about this, and why some people dont say the same things on many topics, btw it could greatly help other users to not make the same mistake than me just thinking it will be ok for them.
thanks

well ok... for me its total fail according to only you (but like i said other say no) but then i answer to you, again..
if i made a long post with questions instead of just, "can i resolve my problem" its cause i think xda is a place where people can learn things with "clever" peoples.
1 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but rooting s7 snapdragon would have been the same ? you didn't answer to this i think
2 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but is there someone who have been able to root s7 and to still use samsung pass or secure folder ? you won't answer to this cause it's a no for you. but others ?
3 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but some people said unrooted flash worked ? you won't answer to this cause it's a no for you. but others ?
4 - same
5 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but does other root methods could have work ? you didn't answer to this i think...
6 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but so i havn't mistake my root ? all methods would have get me to the same result ? what's the difference between 0x1 and 0x0500 ? you didn't answer to this i think
7 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, but there is no other app who work like secure folder ? you didn't answer to this i think
8 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, even with a real samsung rom in a samsung center so.
9 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, then no need to test to flash again
10 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, so if in futur there is a trick, i won't try cause you said me no.
11 - i cant resolve my problem thanks, and thanks to explained me magisk, it was really helpfull. But this one is for me, i can find info on magisk on the forum somewhere else.
12 - you just say me no, so like the french forum for me :/
For exemple here, a thread where you have post, it seems to be reasonnable to try to make S health work on a rooted phone
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...riped-knox-t3921869/post79346431#post79346431
ou answer : Flash twrp then connect to pc with adb and pull build.prop .
Then edit ro.config.tima="1" to "0"
After that push the edited buildprop back to your device and flash original recovery back
so you say me no, fail is fail, but now i can try to make S health work.

you can answer me again and again and again, but its quite useless if its just to troll me with "no you can't" or "yes i answered all" in 2 lines to my ****ing boring long post.
i'll look boring, but you don't look smart to act like this :/ no answer would be smarter from you. So please don't answer anymore. Right now i won't be able to give any interest in your posts.

I have no idea what youre talking about. Anyway , my other thread refers to the use of shealth without root as the op wanted to do it with no root acces,compared to yours with root. And to your thread your thread is complete bull**** since its unclear to read and understand your questions. So do me a favor and elaborate your questions next time.
Thanks
Ok thanks bye !
Back to my first "elaborate" post then
"elaborate", but i accord it certainly unclear (cause i'm not a pro english, and not a dev or a pro root user )
so here is a simplified version since i've understood more thingies (on this forum not on this thread)
Général questions :
1- Knox 0x1 problems are only for S7 exynos ?
2-3-4- Samsung Pass, Samsung Pay, Secure Folder, Health, etc.. can't never work on rooted / no-more rooted / wiped stock rom phone cause of knox ?
5- Other root method could have work without breaking knox ?
For me, S7 exynos, R16NW.G930FXXS4ESC5, knox 0x0500 :
6- Like i'm not in knox 0x1 but 0x0500 do i have a try ?
7- Can i have back knox related apps editing something ? or almost same knox-apps (mainly secured folder) ?
8- If it's usefull, can i go back to initial stock rom ? A real samsung official install from myself or samsung center ?

Hellooo
1. No, the KNOX Warranty Void stuff is already an "issue" ever since the Samsung Galaxy S4 came out. And ever since that, every new Samsung Device launches with that Knox counter. BTW, the KNOX Counter is an one-time programmable chip that once it detects any sort of modifications to the Device (Root, Custom Recovery like TWRP etc.) sets the counter from 0x0 to either 0x1 or 0x500.
2. That's right, All of Samsung's Security / Pay apps immediately will stop working once the Device was rooted.
3. See Answer 2 xD Since the KNOX Counter is more like a Hardware-based thing, it won't change even after a complete Stock ROM flash process.
4. Whatever those guys say, don't believe them. See Answer 3. xD
5. There are pretty much no methods to root the Device without screwing up with KNOX. The Samsung S6 / S6 Edge once had such a way of rooting tho where you were able to root while still having the KNOX at 0x0, but only on the Lollipop firmware though.
6. "Triggering" the KNOX Counter, whether it shows 0x1 or 0x500 is a one-time thing, like voiding the Warranty with rooting countless times won't make the Counter go crazy between 0x1 and 0x500 xD
7. Maybe. You'd be better to look for alternatives though, but maybe after a while tho some Dev might be able to patch it to work with rooted / Knox 0x1 Devices.
8. Yes sure. Flashing the for the Device latest available Stock ROM will return the Device to factory condition... Except the KNOX thingy tho xD
11. Magisk is like SuperSU a tool/program/software whatever you wanna name it, a Program to gain root access.
12. Nice joke, damn. xD I once asked at a Samsung Store to repair the Dead Motherboard of the S7 from my Mom, they said it'll be between 200-300€ JUST FOR THE MOBO, means you'll also have to consider the actual repair costs and so on. 40€ is a joke.
13. See 8. Yes, after returning to full stock you should still get OTA Updates.

I recently bought an M23 5g, had a Moto g7 plus. I've never had a Samsung cell phone before. I don't know what happens to the phone after rooting. I saw that on other Samsung smartphones, because of the Knox protection, some apps and features stop working, so I was in doubt about the fingerprint, as it has the Knox logo when unlocking it. Can someone who rooted the M23 5g tell me if it continues to work normally the fingerprint? What other functions does it miss?

i don't have M23 but i have another samsung, i can tell you my experience. After flashing Magisk, you'll need to wipe you data (knox **** will block your phone otherwise), i didn't lost any features, except Payment apps, and fingerprint work. Don't worry your phone will work normally if you root it

I came back here to tell my experience rooting the M23 5g. Yes, the fingerprint works great with the root and face unlock too, but some apps of Samsung dont work anymore like: Samsung pay/wallet, secure folder, health and all other's. So i find a module Lsposed called: Knox Patch. With this module, only samsung pass and pay dont became to work, other work great. The bank apps i recomend use magisk module call shamiko, all my bank apps work with this, but you will need put the apps on negation list of magisk before and resetart the smartphone. Puting google wallet on magisk negation list you can use this app and dont need anymore the samsung pay. So, the unic apps you realy lose with the root is the samsung pass.
OBS: For me, when i'm installing the root file on ODIN, the M23 dont boot without factory reset. I have a botloop and stuck at screen with factory reset option, after the reset magisk app apper for me normaly and work's great, so remember backup your files before rooting.
For all user's.
the price for this one is nice for its specs, considering to buy it and install TWRP and some custom rom like lineageos or something, can I pm anyone who did it?

There is no custom tom for this phone
Found some great tools for generating device trees, I want to make sure flashing TWRP, and/or Lineage OS is possible before buying this phone (In my case the SM-M236B/DS). Can someone please try it out for me? Luckily it's based of the Snapdragon 750G 5G, so it should be easier than making a device tree for an Exynos. (thanks Samsung).
Here are the things I found:
Firmware:
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-m23/firmware/#SM-M236B or
https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-M236B
There is a database of already dumped device trees but I doubt there is a device tree for SM-M236B/DS
https://dumps.tadiphone.dev/dumps
You could always try to download it straight from Samsung, but I don't know how to do that.
Tutorials:
Found this really easy to follow tutorial about using Dumpyara a device tree dumping tool.
https://baalajimaestro.me/posts/extract-vendor-2/
TWRP build guides, this is the best guide I found, kind of complicated but still realy useful
https://gist.github.com/rokibhasansagar/15c8e728d94a6bd35a687aac73ef79a5
Haven't found any Lineage OS build guides for unsupported devices but I've found a build guide for /e/ os, it should be similar (/e/ os is based of Lineage). (if you find one pleaaase tell me)

make a patched magisk boot image and flash it. Then flash vbmeta_disabled. Lastly, go to lineage recovery and wipe data and fastboot flash the GSI.

Where i can get vbmeta disabler? And how I can flash this via fastboot? Through TWRP?
Okay so i succesfully flashed crDroid gsi. Here is a tutorial:
1. Unlock Bootloader
2. Using Odin flash a13_5g_fastbootd-recovery.tar
in AP slot in odin
3. After restart immediately go to recovery and you should see option "enter fastboot", select this and your phone should go into fastbootd mode
4. Now launch fastboot on your PC type fastboot devices if it shows your device that's good.
5. Copy your gsi to adb/fastboot directory and type: fastboot flash system <name of gsi>.IMG
Now flashing should start.
If flashing complete succesfully FIRST go to recovery and select FORMAT DATA. After data is formatted reboot your phone.
Now your phone should boot up with your gsi tom.

Odin runs on a PC under Windows. (Saying you downloaded it to an SD card made me think you were trying to run it on your tablet.)
Try to use the Search function on the site. There's probably a thread on rooting the S7 Edge. There's definitely a thread on Magisk.
Here are the Magisk installation instructions.
Don't start with "I don't know anything, somebody tell me how." Read a lot of posts, at least learn some words.
Was I wrong to assume you want to root your tablet? What made you decide you wanted Odin? What is stopping you from Googling "unlock"?
Before you do anything destructive, find and download a copy of your current ROM, so you'll be in a position to recover. You can test burning a ROM without unlocking the bootloader, as long as it is an official Samsung-packaged ROM.
Good luck.

Well, you can't. Odin is an IBM PC program that runs under Windows. It is used to ship ROM files to a Samsung tablet. The tablet must be in "download mode".

Find the S7 Edge forum for help unlocking.
Odin is not part of unlocking. Odin is for downloading software to the device. I think you can use Odin without unlocking -- you will only be able to flash images. You could try flashing a stock image for a different language, just to see if it works. (Pick a language you think you will understand well enough to see how to change the language back to your preferred language.)
A separate step, with no reference to Odin, is unlocking. I think it is usually delete any Google account you have attached to the device, enable Developer Options, enable "bootloader unlock" in Developer Options, reboot to recovery or download mode (I'm not sure which), expect some message like "hit Volume Down to unlock" (could be Volume Up), accept that it will wipe data.
Once you are unlocked (verify by booting Android again, and checking the Developer Options to see if the "unlock bootloader" option is still enabled, but is now greyed out), you can try using Odin to download non-stock software. In particular, it is at this point that you might try to flash a Magisk-patched software to try to install Magisk. With Samsung, as of when I did it, installing Magisk will again require wiping data, so do not spend a lot of time configuring your device between unlocking the bootloader and installing Magisk.
one can't bypass FRP lock on Samsung devices. what you try with Odin3 is impossible, it won't reset FRP.
find another method for that model, there exist some cheats on YouTube

Question How to root Android 13?

Hi guys, I'm lookin to root my A525F with One UI 5.0
Also looking for necessary files to disable encryption.
Also I've received November Update for my country.

Nice.
Can you please share the exact method you carried on?
Follow the guide here to install TWRP and disable force encryption: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-official-twrp-3-7-for-galaxy-a52-4g-and-a72-4g.4405751/
After that just flash Magisk.
Greetings to the XDA Team and all the other good people,
I want to root my Samsung Galaxy A52 4G, and just wanted to ask where should I start so I do it successfully, without upside-down moments. I already updated my phone to the latest, so now the phone is running Android 13.
I am a beginner in this, I educated myself from some videos online and on the XDA forum and saw that I can make my device more secure with root, I can disable system and apps trackers.
So my first question is, do I need to downgrade to Android 12 so the success rate becomes higher or I can stick with Android 13 and still get success for the end goal?
My second question is if what I wrote above this is a truth.
The third question is, how do I get my device running again if rooting fails?
The forth question is, can I unroot my device if I want it at some moment?
My fifth and last question is, is rooting worthy and needed so I can achieve my goals?
I still think I know nothing and want to expand my knowledge, so I ask people who are masters in this field to help me out with this, so I can become happier.
​Thanks for considering my request.

You can do root your phone. But you should not be panic. carefully read instructions and do it with patient without skipping none of the steps.
I'm also not an expert. but i have done rooting of more than 10 phones without failing.
you have to unlock your boot loader before rooting.
I doubt about your statement about device becomes more secure with root. it depends on what you do alter followed by root. yes you can improve privacy.
also your banking apps may stop work after rooting. so you have to apply necessary modules (security fixes) before get them start working again.
if rooting failed provided phone is not hard bricked, you can flash your original firmware to restore the phone. what i always do is keeping all the original firmware ready with me before doing any rooting.
yes. you can unroot by flashing original firmware.
last question is difficult to answer. majority of people use their phones without rooting. if you want to be different, it's up to you.
