Odin stuck on boot.img - Samsung Galaxy A51 Questions & Answers

Hi, I have an SM-A515F Android 12
I have been trying to root my phone since it is out of warranty and I'd like to use the DualClockModule
But the catch is, it keeps getting stuck on boot.img
Now, I am a noob to this but I followed this guide:
GUIDE -- Root A515F with android 12 -- GUIDE (no custom Recovery)
Has anyone a good Guide/Tut to Root the A51 (Android 12) with the Original Samsung Firmware? SEE Next Post Thx Regards Alex
forum.xda-developers.com
Can someone please suggest me something?
USB debugging is on
OEM is unlocked
I only have the phone connected to my laptop's USB port. All versions (magisk and odin) are latest.
I do not feel like giving up..

Hard bricking Galaxy S7

I wrote in separate thread 10 days ago.
I got the rooted Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) which if I try to boot to recovery gives an error: dm-verity verification need to check drk first.
Then following step by step instructions I installed TWRP.
And flashed custom rom SuperMan-Rom V1.6.5
Rom worked fine until I rebooted the device for the first time. Then I got message:
Code:
Custom Binary Blocked By FRP
Maybe I accidentally turned off OEM unlock in Developer settings, but I honestly don't remember I did that.
And after that I got the hard brick. This is confirmed by @CuBz90 in this thread
So my question is:
1. After the Galaxy S7 is rooted/custom recovery is installed, the DRK is damaged and dm-verity verification will fail if stock rom is installed, right?
2. If user accidentally turn off OEM Unlock the device will be hard bricked, right?
Is that two steps one way ultimate bricking?
I'm asking that because I'm thinking of buying new Galaxy S7 to replace the bricked one, but if hard bricking is that easy, than I'm not really sure I will buy it again.
Dude, try to kill him completly ( nothing on screen ) then send him to warranty, you got nothing to lose.

It's not possible since I bought it second hand.
Even if I had a warranty, in my country (Serbia) warranty for smartphones doesn't mean much, I think I could write PhD thesis easier than to make seller replace/fix smartphone with warranty

No I didn't but the fact is it will not work.
There is currently no way to fix that. The only way would be to unlock FRP by some box, but it isn't released yet.
What I am asking here is true that Galaxy S7 could be hard bricked that easy? By steps I wrote in my first post.
My questions are partially answered in this article
But I still don't understand what's the problem with dm-variety if I flashed stock rom?
Is there are any other parts of the NAND that are not original/signed and that's why dm-verity fails?
If that's the case can they be backed up then reflashed with the Odin if I get into same problem with new phone?
Thanks
@mss1988 Even if you get message as locked because of FRP, just use Smart switch with Emergency recovery mode and you will get the device back to its original state. This works even if the device is rooted or Twrp'd

Thanks, but Smart Switch Emergency Recovery is basically the same thing as Kies Firmware update. Which I already tried and that didn't fixed my problem.

@mss1988 I have personally faced this issue on Samsung J7 and J5 and later I had to use Smart Switch's Emergency recovery functionality by enter my Serial number and Device Model Number and Successfully finished flashing the stock ROM. Yes, This works.

I don't have the phone anymore to confirm or to deny this. But the whole procedure in Kies and Smart Switch is the same. There are other people with the same problem too in this thread too, and they still didn't found the way to unbrick their devices.

I went through this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/guide-how-to-fix-check-drk-imei-issues-t3379516 which gives a link to downloading the factory binary (of either version). It reinstated my IMEI which had been turned to a string of zeroes. I will say that when you reboot after flashing the factory binary it's pretty different looking so be prepared for that. I then went to Sammobile and downloaded the appropriate stock ROM for my s7 and flashed that with Odin. I flashed TWRP, formatted internal data when given the opportunity, flashed the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip, and I was able to use my s7 again. At any rate, you might follow the guide at the link I gave you and see if it helps. As always, no guarantee is given or implied. It's just what I did.
Thanks man, but I can't flash the Factory binary, my FRP is unfortunately ON.

There's no adb/fastboot access from Samsung recovery or Samsung download mode, as far as I know.
Just get your phone into downloadmode and then flash the stock firmware witch you can find on sammobile. I got also this problem, and then everything will be fine ?
did you try use Kies or Smart swticher to factory restore the phone ?
because as far as i know , even FRP is on , you can still flash stock firmware.
and , try local shop to find any place have z3x box or Octopus box .

Did i brick my samsung s7 SM-G930?

So i think i have completely ****ed up, hopefully you guys can give me some insight
I was on the process of properly rooting a samsung s7 that i got since the root checker said that it was not properly root.
i decide to fallow this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...ot-guide-verizon-s7-s7-edge-sm-g930v-t3411015
But i after flashing the ENG using Odin
the phone just keep restarting, over and over, it also does the samething in recovery mode.
Notes:
The phone was displaying Custom unlock login screen (Before Flash)
Also it was 6.0.1 update
and I got the the 7.0 update, to flash the ENG
If there is anything you guys can advice, ill appreciate.
If it can go in downloading mode you can flash stock firmware and try rooting again.

[Plz Help] Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930W8 Rooting Problem

What I have:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930W8 device. It has been rooted and unrooted previously, as well as flashed with official samsung stock ROM. I also have just performed a factory reset from recovery mode recently.
What I am trying to do:
I am trying to root it properly and flash LineageOS on it. I am aware as to how to do this based on the guides here, but I run into a problem early on...
Problem:
I cannot seem to enable OEM unlock. It automatically disables right after I try to enable it.
Other potential problem:
When I try reboot to bootloader via adb command ".\adb reboot bootloader", it just restarts my device normally
Question:
If I can connect my device to Odin and attempt to flash LineageOS do I risk bricking my device given it's current circumstance? Or is this all I can try now?
I'll provide any additional information/images if needed. I just feel like I am repeating the same troubleshooting over and over again without any progress.
Thanks
Just ended up doing it assuming that it was unlocked (felt quite risky wiping everything and installing old zips)... Everything seems relatively functional and rooted. I'm a little uncertain whether or not I should update magisk as I don't feel like creating a new problem on it for myself just yet.

Yes, it works
So I have been looking into rooting as well. And dozens of threads are mistakenly assuming OEM unlock is an available option under Developer Options on this phone. It's not there. So anything after that is not going to happen. I am referring to the A52 5G US version with the 750c Snapdragon chipset.
The only supported option is paying ransom for a 3rd party unlock as far as I can tell.
Anyone tried this version on A52 5G version? Simply cant find any root methods for my device.

This method should work, unless you have the U.S. variant in which case you won't be able to use any method until you unlock the bootloader (paid services afaik)
So ive been rooted for a few weeks now and was successfully passing safetynet. But now out of nowhere CTS started failing, i cant pass it anymore even without magisk. Anyone having the same issue?

Urg. Is there a fix for that? Or do i need to re-lock my bootloader (since it still fails even without magisk)

Well this is quite new as in it started to fail today (for me) so I think people are scrambling right now to get a fix. I haven't read anyone that has fixed it yet.

Ok, thanks. Was just curious if relocking BL could fix it
Magisk Hide has been removed from the main server, so it won't pass CTS now. There is a fix, please search!

Did you figure out how to fix this?? I have the same issue!
Hello guys, so I was rooting my phone and I had just ended loading the "A52_MagiskPatched_AndroidHowTo.tar" AP thing via Odin. Instead of taking me to the recovery and is stuck at this screen.View attachment 5474237
I can still load into the download screen, but that's all.
If any one has any solutions please reply, I am sure I did all the steps, but now I'm doubting myself is there a way to revert it or something?
If someone can help me I promise to give a small compensation!

I have samsung sm-a525f android 12 OUI 4.0 security patch 1 dec 2021, i've read this tutors n find that if we want to root the device we must install TWRP before rooting it. Now, i have a question, why must we install the custom recovery before doing that root session? Why cant we just flashing the root files using the stock recovery ? thank you.

Because you can't flash root files using stock recovery, they're unofficial files.

J330F downgrade

Hi. I accidently updated my J3 to android 9 and since then, the phone works like my old Samsung S4 mini. Everything is lagging, in short phone is just unusable. I know that trying to downgrade via odin you get anti rollback protection because of the bootloader so is there any other way how to downgrade it to older version? I don't care if it's easy or hard way, i just want to make this phone usable. Maybe flashing older rom with keeping new bootloader? I heard someone did that once to A7 2018 but never published this rom.
I downgraded my SM-J330F (with unlocked bootloader) from Pie (9) to Nougat (7) using Odin.
To unlock the bootloader on a J3 is very easy. Go to Developer Options and activate OEM unlocking. That's it.
If it's somehow missing, use this:
