Question Anybody knows when could we root? - Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4

Hello guys. Does anybody know when would we be able to root our beloved Flip 4? I haven't seen any thread for it. Is there something that's blocking the devs from discovering a root method? Just trying to understand.
Thanks!

Probably just need to wait for John Woo (developer of magisk) to update it for the fold and flip 4 series. You can try asking in the magisk forums if anyone knows anything.

if you can unlock the bootloader (not possible on the US versions) download the stock firmware and transfer the AP file to your phone.
then install magisk and patch the AP file, transfer back and odin flash the patched file and you should have root.

Well unfortunately I'm not that expert as to discover how to unlock bootloader myself. But I guess the expert guys could help us if they would like to.

if you can get into the development options in settings you should be able to see OEM unlock toggle but be warned if you choose it it will wipe all your data..!

1) go into settings/about phone
2) then software information tap on build number 7 times
3) go back to settings and you should see development options at the bottom
4) if the OEM unlock is there choose it and it will reboot to the bootloader screen
5) it will then ask you do you really want to unlocck it, if you choose to yes it wipe all data and you have to start from scratch re-installing everything
6) download the latest firmware and extract it to a new folder on your PC
7) copy the AP file to your phone
8) download and install the latest Magisk apk
9) in Magisk choose the top option 'install' then select patch a file
10) after patching transfer the file back to your PC (it can be found in the download file on your phone)
11) download and install Odin on your PC
12) open Odin and put the AP patched file in the AP slot and the CSC file in the CSC slot
13) after flashing and rebooted install the Magisk app again and it should confirm being rooted after Magisk reboots the phone

Wow. Are you rooted?

yes, rooted on the flip 3 but it will work on the flip 4 aswell. I know it looks quite difficult at first but it does become easier after doing it a few times

I'm not able to get past the step #3 on this phone, its locked down.
Can access recovery but the "wipe data" option is removed.
Any advice? It's a demo unit with an IMEI number I kinda got scammed into buying, trying ot figure out if its a lost cause.

I own a Flip 4 from Austria and can confirm your described method works, except I had to use CSC —> CSC instead of the Home CSC, cause it didn’t boot before.
Google Wallet (ex Pay) works with Magisk Props module as well!

Sure it will. Just pay $150 and let some unknown asshole remote into your device.

This info came out today, but I have the unlocked version that I bought directly from samsung (U1) and I can confirm that I cannot "OEM Unlock" my Flip4.

good evening @
shreyas.kukde @​jdenman03 @​entropism @​beanbean50 @​Plazza86 @​Jmoney55 @​ankur079 @​Philnicolls89​, I have just bought the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 in Europe (France) and indeed to ROOT it you have to put the Tarmd5 AP file in the AP box and the CSC file (and not Home CSC) in the CSC box to that everything works fine, when the phone restarts, you have to reinstall Magisk and everything is OK. Thanks for this tutorial, hope it helps other people.

Well, root has been achieved on all of the variants. All the information is spread, therefore I will compile it.
It is confirmed working for the G935T/A/ (All firmwares so far) can anyone verify it works for Verizon?

MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR PHONE, YOU MAY NEED TO FACTORY RESET AFTER FLASHING THE ENGBOOT FILE. ( MAY BE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE DISABLED SYSTEM APPS)
1- Put your device in to download mode ( Power off--- Hold Down arrow + Home + Power button)
2-Open the provided ODIN and where it says "AP" select and open the file "Samsung_G935x_QC_Rooted_BOOT.TAR" -- FLASH it--
3- The phone should now reboot
Installing SuperSU
easiest way to put it for flashing su.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLvRuzQMPLk
1- make sure you have the adb toolkit installed( place it in the root of the "C:/" drive. Mine is "C:/adb"
2- place the superuser folder you downloaded in to c:/adb and rename it "super" to make things easier
3- open the command prompt. Either search for it or press windows key + r and type in "cmd"
4- once cmd is open, navigate to the "super" folder. To do so type cd c:/ , then type cd adb and finally type cd super
5- type in root.bat
You should now be rooted.
To remove the security warning, use a package disabler like titanium backup and disable SecurityLogAgent
NOTE
For those having lag, heat, and battery drain issues. Try doing this.
I had those issues on PD6.
What I did was, ODIN'd a factory PD8 file and rerooted, then I used KERNEL TOOLKIT and changed to the ONDEMAND Governor, next I increased the CPU(small cores / and large cores) to max FREQUENCY allowed and reduced the min core frequencies to the lowest setting. Be sure to apply settings on boot so they stick.
The phone is very fast now.
I disabled the KNOX packages and tmobile package.
It fixed 95% of my issues, im even running xposed
For anyone that needs the complete firmware from Sammobile:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935T/
I also attached the root files necessary in the zip file here.
BUT... you also need to unrar it. Stinking forum set the zip limit to 20MB for zip files but it zips to about 23MB.
Rar limit is 8MB but in a rar it was reduced to about 18. So... rar'ed it up, hid it in a zip.
Will this work on PC8? That's the one I'm on.

No guts, no glory. Try it and let us know. Root hasn't been out but for a couple of hours so it's hard to know for sure. Make a backup with Smart Switch and try it out! My guess is that you shouldn't have any issue.
If anyone has disabled any of their apps, make sure you re-enable them.
If you get stuck at the white T-Mobile screen for longer than 5 minutes then reboot back to stock recovery and factory reset. Sucks... but some of us had to do it. Afterwards, it should boot fine.
By the way... HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!

Switch your Samsung Galaxy S7 or S7 edge completely.
Boot into Galaxy S7 recovery mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power keys at the same time.
Release all three buttons when Samsung Galaxy S7 screen flickers and you see a warning sign.
Press Volume Up to continue to the main screen of Recovery mode. Or, press Volume Down if you aren’t sure and want to go back to the normal mode.
That’s just about it!

Yes, specifically the root.bat is Windows based, but you could read the .bat and figure out how to do it in linux. Either way, yes.
Worked flawlessly with the guide. Thanks for compiling it
Edit/Update:
I am getting the same lag that others have reported previously. One thing I'm seeing that stands out in logcat is Secure Storage Daemon throwing warnings and then an error "Kernal binary has been changed. Please use the same version of platform/kernel binaries"

If you follow the guide, you'll have everything you need and there wouldn't be any questions needed.
I guess more specific to ask, where are you getting hung up?
On a windows machine:
Download all the files listed and get them installed
Follow the instructions (boot phone into download mode, put adb folder into c:\, rename the SuperSU folder from the zip archive to "super" for easy access, execute the cd's and then execute root.bat)

It's in the guide.
Please just read the guide and understand it before you move forward. Ask what you don't understand from the guide so that the writer could make it more clear if it's needed. But what you just asked is literally written clearly with what to do.

Knox 0x0

[Rom][Rooted_ALL_Carriers_Nougat_S8+BRB1_SafeStrap][SamFail][V5 Bootloaders]

My method is a little different than the actual SamFAIL method so please to tell me it says this in their thread. I feel my procedure is the best method for the S8+ and this method may not work on the other models so please follow there own set of directions. This method allows you to obtain root by simply flashing a modified system.img using only odin. These images include all carrier files and will work on all carriers. These roms should be stable and you can probably just use these as your daily rom. ​
What Is Safestrap
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. Safestrap is now based on TWRP Recovery (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here.

This thread is simply to get you rooted with a working rom.
This thread is not a rom request or features request.
If you dont like the rom that this method installs then install whatever you want.
Yes the 80 percent battery bug is still present in this method.
The screen gets a funny tint every once in awhile simple turn screen off and back on. This is not roms fault it is Eng Combo Firmware.
Sometimes FlashFire fails to achieve root or gets stuck acquiring root. A reboot usually fixes it sometimes it takes a couple reboots.
Kernel panics happen and will cause your phone to reboot to upload mode. If this happens simple hold the keys to reboot to download mode then from there reboot phone.
This is system root so safetynet apps will not work nor will samsung apps like Pay, Secure Folder, Pass. There is no work around

Once done there will be a folder in the MD5_TAR_TOOL. folder on your computer called AP_SYSTEM_IMG_PART_1 and inside that folder will be a AP_SYSTEM_IMG_PART_1.tar.md5 which will contain your system.img from your phone
Just replace the Above AP..._PART_1 file with your newly created AP_SYSTEM_IMG_PART_1.tar.md5 and follow procedure in port 1 and now you can flash your system.img in odin its good if you bootloop your phone with a mod or something

No. No encryption. I just wanted to state I'm not saying I don't appreciate your rom still please don't take it that way.
If your 128 works, can you link me which one you're using? I'll snag it off Amazon quick

The phone will randomly read it. Like I can play a song for a minute or 30 seconds then it stops and I get the symbol at the top that says an SD card was inserted. The same when I'm trying to pull stuff off of or put stuff on... It will work for a little bit then unmount itself and remount. I saw that Google play may have something to do with it (other forums) but I've been trying to run traces on it to see and so far I don't see any error messages.

Try flashing some different combo firmware I have some listed in my rom thread

[HOWTO] Unlock and root the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite

Hey guys,
I know its the same with the other tablets but i wanna make one just cause its easier for people.
How to unlock::
1. Turn on your device and then go to settings --> scroll down to about tablet --> Software Information then tap the Build number 7 or 8 times or until it says you unlocked developer options.
2. Go to developer options and tick OEM UNLOCK and then a warning will pop up and just accept it.
3. Turn off your device, then while holding both volume up and down, connect your device to the pc.
4. A New screen should appear saying stuff about custom roms and stuff, Jut hold and press the up button until it resets. ( THis will erase everything on the tablet)
5. if you're like me and set up the tablet and went straightfoward to unlocking the bootloader, follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/how-to-bypass-rmm-prenormal-to-install-t3891193
So you wont have any issues flashing roms a nd stuff and dont have to wait 7 days.
6. Now your bootloader should be unlocked! (To enter download/odin mode: Do the same thing, Turn off the device and hold both volume buttons while connecting to the pc then instead of long pressing up, just press up once.)
How to root:
1. Download the firmware for your your tablet, i dont know if i can link the sites but you can google it.
2. Extract only the AP portion of the firmware.
3. Open up the AP portion with 7-zip or winrar
4. extract the boot.img.lz4 out of the AP file
5. Download Lz4 https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases to your pc corresponding version.
6. Extract the LZ4 to the same area where the boot.img.lz4 is
7. Open command prompt in that folder and then do
Code:
lz4 boot.img.lz4 boot.img
8. Move the boot.img to your tablet, open up magisk manager then clicked Advanced Settings or Advanced, then untick Perserve AVB 2.0/Dm-verity and FIle Encryption then patch it.
9. Take the patched_magisk out of the tablet to your pc and then rename it from magisk_patched.img to boot.img
10. Use 7-zip or winrar and right click on the boot.img and add to archive
11. Select Tar (This is 7-zip havent tried winrar)
12. Once its complete use odin to flash that boot.tar on the AP Section
13. You should now be rooted

If you don’t know what you are doing, I suggest not rooting your device
Hi I'm familiar with magisk and oneplus, motorola, htc etc but not with Samsung. How can I still upgrade my device without losing root?
My tab S6 lite, notifies me about an upgrade but it looks like it hasn't got an a and B psystem partition so you can love update en before reboot just use magisk to patch the bootloader and keep root. Any suggestions?

You cannot install the OTA updates if you are rooted.
Only solution:
* back up of your apps and data with Titanium Backup
* clean install of the new ROM (flashing with ODIN), once the new firmware is available on samfrew.com
* patch the boot.img with magisk, so you are rooted again an can install Titanium
* restore te apps and data with Titanium Backup
Maybe someone can make an update script once we have a TWRP-recovery.

If you do not buy new devices for sometimes years and are not a native English speaker it can be very hard to figure out what is being written in abbreviations.
ibb.co/XtDpjcT
Hopefully the picture shows however its just a SS of my Root Checker app showing that it is indeed possible to root the tab 6 lite (or at least SM-P610). Since there are plenty of easy to follow guides regarding how to unlock the boot loader for this device i'm going to skip past that part and jump into what actually gave me 12+ hours of frustration.
Once the boot loader is unlocked it is time to find the stock firmware for this device (which I feel its necessary to mention that there are 2 that are almost identical save for literally one number).
1. XAR-P610XXU1BTI3-20200924123941 <---- WRONG!
2. XAR-P610XXU2BTI3-20200924123941 <----- RIGHT!
once you have the correct firmware as seen above and its downloaded onto your computer open the compressed file (I used WinRAR) and you should see 4 different files.
1. AP_P610XXU2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship_meta_OS10.tar.md5
2. BL_P610XXU2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
3. HOME_CSC_OMC_OXM_P610OXM2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
4. CSC_OMC_OXM_P610OXM2BTI3_CL19529942_QB34299355_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
The file needed in the next step is the one I have listed as number 1 (beginning with AP). Select just that one and extract it to your desktop. At this point you are going to need a compression software (I used 7Zip which is free). Once you have 7Zip installed right click on the AP file that's on your desktop and just below the open with option you should see an option that says 7 Zip with and extendable sidebar. On that same sidebar the first option you should see is "Open Archive" which you will want to select.
You should now be looking at a window with 8 files and 1 folder however the only file you should be concerned with is the one named "boot.img.lz4". **this is where it gets kinda funky if your not overly familiar with this process**
At this point you will want to go to github.com/lz4/lz4/releases and scroll down a little until you see a download link for a file "lz4_win64_v1_9_2.zip". Once downloaded open the zip and extract the entire folder to your desktop (it should be named LZ by default).
Open the LZ folder and take the "boot.img.lz4" file you extracted earlier and copy it into the LZ folder. Once copied simply Drag and drop "boot.img.lz4" onto the .exe called "lz4". If done correctly a new file should suddenly appear in the same folder that is now simply named "boot" but you will notice that it is now in a Disk Image File format.
(at the end of the guide ill put a URL for a video which shows exactly what I just described here, please follow the video if there is any confusion).
At this point you are going to connect your tab 6 lite to your computer and if it hasn't been done already turn on USB debugging from the developers option and install any drivers needed. Once your tablet and computer are able to communicate (i.e you can open your tablet as a drive on your computer) you will want to copy the "boot" file from the previous step into someplace you will remember (I used my downloads folder). Once onto the tablet you will now download and open Magisk Manager and proceed to patch only this one specific file that you have copied over.
Once patched you should see a copy of the boot file in your downloads folder which will now be named "Magisk_Patched". take this newly patched file and copy in onto your computers desktop.
Rename "Magisk_Patched" to "boot.img" and then right click the file. Again you will want to hover over the 7 Zip option however this time you are going to select the option "add to archive..." which is about halfway down the list. Once selected a new window will come up which will allow you to set the format to .tar. with the name set to boot.tar and .tar selected as the format hit the OK button and on your desktop a new WinRAR Archive file should appear named boot.tar.
Now is when you can finally boot your tablet into Odin mode and open Odin as an Administrator (I used the latest version 3.14.4). Once Odin recognizes your device select the AP button and select the newly created boot.tar as your input (The file location should look similar to this C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\boot.tar provided you saved everything on your desktop like I did).
Once loaded into Odin select the options tab and UN-select Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time before hitting the Start option.
At this point if you did everything correct you should see the boot file being flashed onto the device. Once completed with no errors boot the device into the normal stock recovery and wipe the Cache and then factory reset the device. On the next boot up you should see in addition to the normal "boot loader is unlocked blah blah blah" another message that says you have an illegitimate copy of android on your device and that it may not function or update properly.
Just ignore the message and after a few moments the device should continue to boot into the initial set up page. Work your way through the set up and go online to re-download Magisk Manager. This time when you open the app for the first time it will give you a dialog box that says that the Magisk Operation is incomplete and will ask you if you want to complete it. Agree to complete the process and it will auto run in the background for a moment before it shows completed.
It was finally at this point that I ran Root checker and was met with the very first picture in my post. The biggest Issue I found in all of this was the fact that aside from one single comment in a post here on xda, nowhere else does it explain that you need to extract the boot file, convert it first into an img, THEN patch it, THEN flash it..... smh I cant tell you how many times I wiped my device and had to flash the stock recovery until I got this. I hope this helps you guys moving forward and doesn't just cause more confusion but here are all the links to the videos and files I referenced in order that I mentioned them!

How to root a system without knowing a bit about rooting? Plz Help

Respected Forum Members and Readers,
I am an Android Rooting Enthusiast and I am totally new to this realm of hacking into the device and gaining its full access. I have just known about it through videos on youtube and have myself tried to root my device Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro by following videos not knowing really how the things work in actual and ended up losing original firmware. But since then I have been trying to find how to actually root a system by even reading the Book on Hacking by XDA Developers written by Jason Tyler. I have somewhat came to know the internal working but I am also a bit afraid as to try again to root my device as i really don't know how to do it till now and this time i can really not lose my device. But i still want to gain access of it and explore the infinite advantages of having a rooted device. Plz if anybody can help me walk my way through it.
Rooting a device's Android simply means to add "superuser" ( AKA root ) functionality to Android OS, will say add an Android user with elevated rights ( comparable to Administrator in Windows OS).
Because your phone runs Android 7 ( Nougat ) IMO the most easiest method to root your device's Android: Replace Android's Toybox binary - what is a restricted version by default - by unrestricted Toybox v0.8.5.

it's very simple, i will try to be less technical but bear with me,
so, rooting is simply gaining access to systems core, by core i mean ability to access, modify and write into system (structure and file).
it is a great responsibility, as a simple stupid move can cause system to crash and may also brick your device.
------------------------------ but, don't worry as we here in XDA are there to help you,
as, the device in question is a Samsung j7 pro, normal rooting methods will not work as Samsung by default make it difficult to root it's phone.
you may refer this article to root your phone click here.
----------------------------- but it's some what technical so, i will explain, what is written there in next post.
so, about what's in the article,
--------------------- first things first, you may cause damage to your device so, just to make sure i will not be responsible for any damage.
let's begin, what i will tell you about?
ODIN (a software by Samsung to flash original firmware {that comes with phone})
TWRP(custom recovery, a tool that is installed (flashed using odin )on phone to flash custom rom)
Some tweaks files like RMM State By-Pass.zip and no-verity-opt-encrypt don't think much about them, they just bypass some restriction set by Samsung so, that rooting is successful. you can flash them through TWRP.
you can get link through the article for all required files so,
Download Samsung driver from here,
install them on your PC
download ODIN from here,
after it, open settings app >> about phone >> software info >> then click build number 5-10 times till you are a developer option appears.
after enabling developer option go to developer option, find it using search bar in settings app, it should be inside about phone section.
inside developer option enable USB debugging and also enable OEM unlock option.
after enabling OEM unlock option -----part 2 below.
this was part one if you got all till now you are good to go,
Connect your USB cable with PC. Switch off your device. Then, enter into Download mode. To do this; press and hold down the Volume Down +Home+ Power buttons and connect your micro USB Cable.
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
Press the Volume Up button to continue when you see the warning message.
Now, connect the Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro mobile to the computer via USB cable.
download and extract odin downloaded earlier.
launch odin by clicking on odin.exe file
After connecting the Samsung device, click on the PDA/PA button to browse/search and get the TWRP from where you saved it on your PC. Also, navigate to “options” and save settings like shown below.​
after all this your phone should reboot automatically, and voila you have successfully flashed twrp on your device.
now power off your phone,
boot into twrp by pressing Volume Up + Home+ Power Button
then, it will boot into twrp.
Select Wipe->Advance Wipe->Select Cache Data
Return to Home of TWRP select Install
Select Magisk.zip (you can download magisk from github of magisk or from here )
slide to install.
same process for RMM State By-Pass.zip and no-verity-opt-encrypt install file one by one.
after all the process you should reboot into system.
then download magisk app and now you have root access, enjoy and like the post if you want.

Thank You for taking pains to elaborate the process. i just want to ask one question are you sure this method won't brick my device this time. Sorry i am being like that because the phone i have mentioned is my mother's so she would be really pissed if it does not go right. And if my device gets stuck in boot loop rather being bricked can it still be recovered...

don't worry bro if you follow every step properly it will not brick, but to be on safe side backup internal storage and app data before starting to root your moms phone.
and if some thing goes wrong i am here for you, generally speaking phones does not brick during magisk installation.

@Arihant0908
take note that in order to root Android by means of Magisk, as recommended / advised by @[email protected], neither ODIN nor TWRP is needed: flashing TWRP in this case - as a necessary prerequisite - is an absolute overkill.
All you need is to install Magisk Root app.

take note mr./mrs. @jwoegerbauer
if you know anything about magisk then you should know that it is not a one click root tool, you need to flash magisk for you to gain root access.
next, yes you only need to boot twrp but in case of samsung we need custom recovery to fix errors so it's good to have it flashed. odin helps remove complexity, and is safe to use.
i was trying to provide best stable and tested path and don't interfere if you don't know anything about topic, i humble request not to confuse people @jwoegerbauer

Ok so... in the end what i have understood is that:
1. I need to have Magisk.zip, RMM and no verity encrypt files on Phone.
2. I need TWRP, odin and android usb driver by samsung for windows 10 installed on pc.
3. I need to first flash TWRP using odin. Boot up my device
4. Then boot to TWRP, wipe cache, and flash Magisk.zip, RMM and no verity one by one as in one thing at a time using TWRP. Boot up and install magisk app.
If i missed something, disordered anything or have any suggestions then plz reply. Thank You

@Arihant0908
take note that in order to root Android by means of Magisk, as recommended / advised by @[email protected], neither ODIN nor TWRP is needed: flashing TWRP in this case - as a necessary prerequisite - is an absolute overkill.
All you need is to install Magisk Root app.

Totally agree with this.

I successfully rooted my SM-A127F U3 with this manual. There are two problems.
USB tethering to Debian 10 and Ubuntu 20.04 is broken after rooting.
Second problem is that I can't update my service provider.
First time rooting I replaced only the AP. Later I tried replacing everything. Once with CSC and once with HOME_CSC nothing works. When I patch with the original AP there is no CID manager problem. Tethering I didn't try

Click on install and select patch file.

This method will give a patched vbmeta so twrp will then work properly.

Bruh, no. I mean yes one can root that way but a developer of magisk suggest not to use this way instead patch boot.img for your device using magisk and then flash it.

That will work but it doesn't give you a patched vbmeta.
So custom recovery gives an error
