Sorry to say, it didn’t work on my M12 (M127GDDU2AUG1). When I flash both of these files (keeping twrp in AP and vbmeta in USERDATA) it fails and boots into download mode.
The error line in download mode says:
Recovery: No footer detected.
Recovery: Error verifying vbmeta image: invalid vbmeta header
something like that.
P.S.: I have rooted my M12 using the modified magisk for A21s.

After step 10, the phone doesn't boot in recovery. Rather it goes into download mode and stays there until I flash the stock rom again. The error message says:
"ODIN MODE (SBV Fail)!
recovery: Error verifying vbmeta image: invalid vbmeta header (6)
CUSTOM RECOVERY
VBMETA M127GDDU2AUH1, 42200704R"

Yes I rooted with the patched boot.img.tar, extracted from the AP file, with the modified magisk for A21s.
Pardon me for asking, I am a bit of a noob myself, what is the procedure of flashing the Multi disabler. I mean, do I flash it with Odin? or do I install with TWRP install section. If using Odin, then where to put the zip file (BL, AP, CSC or USERDATA)? If TWRP install section, then which partition (like system, boot, recovery or something else)? Thanks in advance.

Well this time a new issue appeared. After step 10, the phone tries to boot into recovery. After the boot logo, the screen goes black. First, I thought the phone turned off itself. But pressing the power button doesn't turn it on again. Interestingly, when I connect the phone to PC, the phone seemed to be on. A device named "SM-127F" (though my phone is SM-127G) was found in "This PC". Running:
adb devices
Shows my phone is connected. I think it actually rebooted in recovery, though the screen remains black.
To get to download mode again, I had to press Power button + Volume down keys to shut it down, then pressed both volume keys.

And my kernel

I confirm that ofox-rog-phy-u4-a12s works on my SM-127F/DSN with the U3 baseband with no issues whatsoever. Mounting, wiping, formatting, backups: everything works. Moreover, the internal multidisabler (called from the terminal) works! Moreover: for the first time I finally could install the phyzwizz kernels from this M12 thread and those work just fine for me, both v3 and v6. Therefore I conclude that SM-127F/DSN is actually internally M12, not A12. I don't know why Samsung chosen to name it A12.

I'll test the Vietnam-made version of SM-127F/DSN a bit later. My previous info is about the India-made version.

The build.prop shows that they were originally going to name it a12s
Also the m12 has 90Hz refresh rate
I think they change their collective minds since Oppo already had a12s registered.

Hi, there's such a problem here, the touchscreen does not work on gsi firmware after the screen is locked, if the phone locks, or the screen just goes out, then the touchscreen stupidly no longer responds to clicks, and you have to restart, just like in twrp

Hi, I have such a question, I want to completely cut out all the system garbage from the firmware so that it can be installed via odin and there was no junk, since I just couldn't remove them from the off firmware, I think to do so, cut out all the garbage through the phone, delete all the extra folders, make a backup system and convert to img, and then flash through odin, will such an idea work?

Hi,
I tried the recovery in my m127g (u2). Though the recovery is actually for u3. As I haven’t yet found any working version for mine.
After I wipe, format data, it says, "Failed to mount '/data'." (attached photo 1)
After typing multidisabler in terminal, it says successful. (attached photo 2)
Any advice will be appreciated.

There was a problem I faced lately.
I had to flash my phone yesterday, tried to install the TWRP. The problem was internal storage not showing. Formatting and multidisabler doesn't help. Results in bootloop.
What works for me is installing OrangeFox (provided by you), formatting and typing multidisabler. Then use the method 1 here. Just for your information.
After installation it works fine.

There was a problem I faced lately.
I had to flash my phone yesterday, tried to install the TWRP. The problem was internal storage not showing. Formatting and multidisabler doesn't help. Results in bootloop.
What works for me is installing OrangeFox (provided by you), formatting and typing multidisabler. Then use the method 1 here. Just for your information.
After installation it works fine.

thanks for the feedback

Does this recovery work on sm-m127g/ds
Binary: u3
If yes what are the bugs for this model.
If no which one will work ?

Question are there any custom recovery that's compatible with a125m?

i've been looking for one everywhere but i cant really find one..
but if someone tells me how to like make a twrp for it (the latin variant), it'd be nice
thank you!

so, are there any news about this?

Nobody supports or develops for that variant of the A12. The only time was a custom recovery, that was abandoned and doesn't work anymore.

well, it doesnt work for me sadly, since the A125F model is a little different from the 125m, itll just start rebooting. if you can make a modifed version for it, ill glady test it for you. the firmware that i got is the ZTO A125MUBU3BVG6
Thank you

A. Preparation.
1. Download firmware for your device
2. Extract ap file using Zarchiver and extract recovery.img from recovery.img.lz4 and compress it to recovery.tar
3. Patch the ap file with a magisk which will patch both boot.img and vbmeta.img (from magisk, choose install then select file to patch)
Exynos 850 Resources
t.me
Alternatively you can extract boot.img.lz4 and vbmeta.img.lz4 from the ap file and compress them into a new tar file and then patch that file.
note: if you don't want root then just extract the vbmeta.img and use zarchiver to add it to my twrp.tar file.
You can flash this new file from odin at step 5

The twrp must be built for a125w.
If you want I can modify the one you're trying but you need to send me your a125w stock recovery.img.lz4

i was also wondering if you knew why i cant make modifications to /system partition. whenever i check it in mount on the main screen of twrp /system still doesn't show. I wanted to get the pixel experience rom but i cannot due to this issue im facing since the system partition does not show as a partition i can flash the custom rom to as a gsi.

i do. only data and system image. data doesn’t show as flashable and system image is already full plus not enough storage for the custom rom. i think that there is supposed to be a prompt from twrp when you load into it to allow modifications to the system partition but this prompt does not show on this twrp which is weird. i cannot find a solution to this issue.
