This thread is for Japanese s7 edge scv33 that’s being booted up with SC-02H firmware after carrier unlocking.
This guide covers/ will help you
• Install Latest available Twrp recovery (Caution: will Trip Knox!)
• Magisk Root
• Remove Japanese carrier bloatwares.
• Make the default device language to English.
• Install latest available updates via default or, will add additional useful Samsung apps (will update the device stock apps like SMS, Touch wiz launcher, AOD, Contacts, etc to latest available.
• Various tweaks like sms delivery options turned on by default, always on display turned on by default etc-etc.
Overall, this guide is to help your Japanese S7 Edge scv33/SC-02H to look more like a standard international model.
So let’s begin.
Step 1:
All required files can be downloaded from here
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XElzbRcvlqf1CXjGK8Oiu6rmlnAvcphY
Caution. Backup all of your personal data. This process will need you to factory reset or will erase all of your data including your personal photographs, apps, videos etc.
You will also require to have a fresh piece of sd card (16 gb or more recommended) to store the twrp nandroid backup if anything goes wrong.
So, First, you will need to remove the modifications that were made to your device stock boot image. If you have flashed the modified kernel or have rooted using super-su, then, you will need to undo all the changes. You can flash the stock boot image file only but I would recommend you to flash the whole latest firmware that you can find easily over UPDATO Firmware website to start better all over again.
Here is the link to the latest SC-02H android 7.0 firmware:
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=AD3D69507E2D11E7963AFA163EE8F90B
Download and extract it. You will find 5 files. You can ignore the HOME……. file. Flash the 4 firmware file using latest Odin.
After flashing, let it boot up. Finish the setup wizard and turn off the device.
Step 2:
Flash the TWRP that you downloaded from here. Download Link is same as above.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XElzbRcvlqf1CXjGK8Oiu6rmlnAvcphY
Twrp Bug: Device will reboot to twrp recovery if you choose to power down the phone from recovery option. You will have to choose “Reboot System” from twrp menu to solve this.
After installing, boot into twrp recovery. Go to Wipe and at the bottom right, you will have option to format data. Perform a Format data process. Then, make a TWRP backup to your sd card.
I repeat. Make a backup. This will help u a lot if anything goes wrong
Step 3:
Time to install magisk.
Extract root.zip file and there you’ll see magisk.zip
Flash this magisk installer file from twrp and reboot the device.
Install the latest magisk manager app apk.
Now your device is rooted with the latest magisk available.
Step 4:
Time to remove the bloatwares.
You will need ES file manager and System app remover from playstore.
Grant super-user access to both apps. Navigate to device/system/preloadFactoryResetOnly using es file manager and delete all the contents inside that folder.
Download the apps.zip file from here
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XElzbRcvlqf1CXjGK8Oiu6rmlnAvcphY
Extract it to your pc. Copy all the extracted apps including their folder to your device and paste it inside the same path i.e, device/system/preloadFactoryResetOnly folder.
Important: You will need to change the copied each app file permission to RW-R-R.
You do-not need to change the folder’s permission. But you will need to change the each apk’s permission one by one. Long press on the apk and then go to properties. Tick mark on (read-write, read, read).
But there will still remain some Japanese DoCoMo bloatwares. You will not be able to remove it by simply using system app remover.
So, use the system app remover app to track down the bloatware’s location by long pressing and delete it by using es file manager. Remember, only delete the bloatwares that are found in device/system/priv-app and device/system/app folders.
Caution:
You do-not need to super trim down your system in hopes for getting more internal space or whatsoever by deleting the bloatwares that you don’t know. Just delete the DoCoMo apps that you can see in the app drawers.
So be aware.
Factory reset after the above step.
Step 5:
Now comes the last part:
CSC Tweaks:
Download the 3 modified csc files from above link. Copy and replace them to path device/system/csc
Change the copied file permission to (rw-r-r).
To change the default device language and set the sms delivery option on by default, copy the Customer.xml file to your pc and edit it by using Notepad++.
Find the line as shown as in the picture below and modify as in it. Save it and replace it back to where it was from which will be device/system/csc and change its file permission again to rw-r-r.
Now turn off your device and boot into TWRP recovery. Perform a factory reset and reboot.
You will have latest apps with all the custom changes including your default language changed to English.
No need to install magisk manager apk as it is already there in the apps.zip folder.
Done!
Credit goes to all the rightful owners.
Special thanks to Mr. Buddha Tuladhar again for the phone.

Is it necessary to flash 2017.03.07_SC02HOMU1BQC4 and 2017.04.07_1BQC4_Gobal_ManhIT.zip ? Or can i just simply flash the latest firmware 2017.12.12_SC02HOMU1BQL3 and root my phone?
Thank you, great job on compiling all this! It took quite a bit of study, but I understand now. Thanks again.
This root works.. but it kills NFC and Beam, Is that a known issue?
I tried this out about 15-20 different times this weekend. I was trying to get obtain root without losing NFC or Beam. (I need NFC on a daily basis).
Galaxy S7 Edge SC-02H (Docomo)
I have no problem installing TWRP. I can get root by either SuperSU or Magisk. Both kill NFC though.
I have tried so many different procedures.
1) Flash stock room (see below *) using Odin 3.12.3 and 3.12.5 (.5 works better)
As soon as installation was complete, I tested out NFC to make sure it works. It does. Then configured Developer options.
2) Then install TWRP (3.1.1 and 3.2.1) via Odin 3.12.5
3) Format then wiped (I also tried wipe without formatting)
4) Installed Magisk via TWRP. (I tried SuperSU as well)
5) Rebooted to system. I also tried Wiped cache, then reboot to system.
6) Once booted up, the first thing I did was check and see if NFC or Beem work. No.
Next I installed Magisk Manager app. I tried the one posted here. Also tried updating to the latest. And also tried installing the latest version of Magisk first.
I tested out root by using ES explorer and opening up the root directory. It worked.
I checked to see if NFC or Beam worked afterwards.. no.
7) Deleted bloatware. Followed this post's Step 5 exactly as is. Root stilled worked. NFC still didn't work.
So as much as I tried.. is it a known that NFC will not work if rooted?
* Firmwares tried:
SC02HOMU1BRG1
SC02HOMU1BRE1
SC02HOMU1BQL3
SC02HOMU1CRH5 (8.0)

Hi, what Twrp Work in Android 8.0 you can Shared whith me?
3.1.1, 3.2.1 and 3.2.3
They all worked. I had originally started working with 3.1.1 and 3.2.1. However, I tried the latest 3.2.3 because I couldn't get NFC to work. I did it just to give it a try.
But all three versions that I listed had no problem installing.
Are you having trouble installing TWRP?
Yes, recovery is not remplace
Will you have a link and instructions for Android 8?
How to install TWRP on Galaxy S7 Edge (SC-02H)
TWRP Installation:
1) Download and installed Odin 3.12.5 (or the latest)
2) Turn off phone. Pressed and hold Volume Down+Home+Power at the same time to get to Download Mode. Once you see the Download Mode page, let go of the buttons. Press Volume Up to accept. (To cancel, press Volume Down )
3) Open Odin and click on AP. Load the TWRP file from your computer.
4) On the second tab of Odin, uncheck "Auto-reboot" (you need to have auto reboot disabled in order to successfully install TWRP). Press 'Start'.
5) Once the Odin status changes to a green "Pass", the installation is complete.
At this point, your phone will still be in Download Mode screen. For this step only, you will need to do two steps back to back. First, press and hold Vol.Down+Home+Power in order to get the phone out of the Download Mode screen.
As soon as the screen changes, press Volume UP+Home+Power.
You will see TWRP load.
That's it. You have successfully loaded TWRP.
From here on out, you will need to press Vol. Up+Home+Power in order to boot into TWRP. If you reflash your phone back to stock firmware using Odin, you will lose TWRP and will need to repeat these steps in order to install TWRP again.

This thread is for Japanese s7 edge scv33 that’s being booted up with SC-02H firmware after carrier unlocking.
I need help in order to compile all of these tweaks into an Odin flashable file so that users can simply flash it and make the changes.I would also like to add App-lock feature and international Samsung keyboard with secondary symbol in but can’t seem to make it work. So, if you are interested or have tried, please let me know.....

I am also struggling about this. I think the problem only concerns TWRP or Root. However I think the problem is TWRP, because when I flash stock rom, nfc ok. Next, i flash TWRP (not root yet), nfc has been disabled now. So i think TWRP causes this problem. However, if i reflash stock recovery, everything remains unchanged, NFC is still turned off. so it is very contradictory.
Now I think of a test, after installing all (root), backing up all android. Then flash again with stock rom, check NFC. Finally, restore the backup. The goal is to completely remove the TWRP from the process but still root the device. I hope it will work. Will try if i have the time
Hi!
Xperia ZXP was running the official Firmware fine. Then, I just decided to root. I followed this video:
Got my phone properly rooted.
Now I keep getting notification of an update that I had before but cannot install it. Also, I cannot setup my company work profile as it detects root.
I mainly wanted to use Cheat Engine that why I rooted.
How do I apply latest update?
How do I hide root status?
Download Flashtool and latest version of Xperifirm. Find latest firmware with Xperifirm. Should end in .107. Download it and decrypt it with Flashtool. Download Newflasher. Unzip Newflasher into the folder you have the decrypted files. Plug your phone into your computer. Make sure you have the correct driver. Developer option and usb debugging enabled on your phone. Put phone into flash mode and hit newflasher.exe and choose "n" for the first two choices and let it run. That will give you the latest and final update for this phone.
Now use twrp to install the latest Magisk version(search online), also have Magisk manager app(Play Store) on your phone. Once that's done and you've rebooted phone open Magisk Manager and select the menu in upper left corner and go to Magisk Hide and if there's the option to hide whatever app that is detecting root and causing problems, select it and it should no longer detect root. If the problem app is not shown then I don't know. I believe there is a Magisk Module that may be less app specific and hide Magisk from everything.

You have to select the location. Click on Tools, then Bundles, then FILEset Decrypt. On the line where it says source folder there's a small box on the end. Click it and from there go to your harddrive, users(you), flashtool, firmware, downloads and there you will find the firmware that you just downloaded. Click on it and that should unpack the firmware. Then select all the files to convert. That will place the converted files in the same location as the firmware. Don't bother with removing the .ta files. Do create the partition folder. See link below.
http://www.xperiablog.net/2018/01/2...mware-for-xperia-xz-premium-xz1-and-more/amp/
The above link will take you through all the above steps. You will lose user data. You can remove the USERDATA X Flash ALL and that should save your data but no guarantees.

The latets Xperifirm also extract right after downloading so the decrypt step is not needed.
I'm flashing a I write. I'll be dealing with the next part now:
Now use twrp to install the latest Magisk version(search online)
also have Magisk manager app(Play Store) on your phone
Once that's done and you've rebooted phone
open Magisk Manager and select the menu in upper left corner and go to Magisk Hide and if there's the option to hide whatever app that is detecting root and causing problems, select it and it should no longer detect root.

TWRP has to be flashed or installed from store?
Was going to attach the file but had upload issues. What you want is twrp 3.3.1-0-maple.img. Once you have that put phone in fastboot mode ( volume up while plugging phone into computer) then go to the place you downloaded the above ( unzip it to a folder that also contains adb and fastboot unless you have that installed system wide). Open a powershell or cmd window inside that folder and type: fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-maple.img. that'll open twrp on your phone in recovery. Then you can flash Magisk and that'll root your phone. I'm typing this from memory. I believe I have that right. If you want to install twrp on the phone itself umm, I believe you flash the .IMG file to recovery partition. You'll need to have both those files in your phone. Let me know if I got that right. If it doesn't work, no worries, just start over. These phones are hard to brick; believe me, I know.

I have downloaded the TWRP image and I have the android platform tools as well. Right now, my mobile is working with the latest ROM from Xperifirm and I'm not sure about root status. It was rooted before I did the firmware update. It is latest now and no app is complaining.
Current status:
- OEM Booltloader unlocked
- USB Debugging ON
Question:
- I need to know will if I'll lose all data on the phone?
- If I use the fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-maple.img command, phone wil have TWRP as recovery and will be in this recovery mode? I need to copy Magisk (apk?) already on the phones hardrive so I can install from there?
Doomer D. Great said:
I have downloaded the TWRP image and I have the android platform tools as well. Right now, my mobile is working with the latest ROM from Xperifirm and I'm not sure about root status. It was rooted before I did the firmware update. It is latest now and no app is complaining.
Current status:
- OEM Booltloader unlocked
- USB Debugging ON

If you didn't lose data in upgrading the firmware you won't lose it installing Magisk. Using TWRP from your computer does not install it. It only puts you into recovery using TWRP as the menu. If you want to have it installed you need to flash the .img file to the recovery partition while in TWRP. All this does is eliminate the need to use a computer every time you want to use TWRP.
You more than likely lost root when flashing the new firmware. So Magisk apk is the manager app. You also need to have Magisk 20.4 as a zip file in your phone. When in TWRP select mount and make sure the location where the zip is is selected. Then go back and select install and then go to the location of the zip, select it and slide the slider and it will install. Go back to main menu and power off. People like to wipe and reboot, I find not wiping if you don't have to works for me along with powering off and then restarting the phone.

Mission accomplished.
I did all this so that I can use Cheat engine to chat in some silly games plus a few simple ones I made with Unity. Turns out, Cheat Engine fails to show running apps to select from... what a trip...

Everything works perfectly. All apps working with root and Magisk is hiding root from required apps. Cheat Engine is working with Root. After that, the issue is with Cheat Engine. It is not working as expected. I see an emty Apps list and cannot fing the game I want to cheat in even when it is running. This is off topic as the thread is now complete. Just saying I didi all this for a dissapinting app.

Oh well, at least you got it updated and working. Maybe it'll take some searching somewhere else to get that other stuff worked out.
Just a side note; I used to work for Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum at his Throughbred operation in Lexington.
Excuse me, does anyone know how to root xz premium docomo ubl no ??? Now on Android 9 Pie, please help.
I believe the Japan market version can't have the bootloader unlocked, thus, no root.
This is an advanced guidance.
I will explain exact procedure presuming other things are already known for those who are know what are they doing.
Therefore, if anything goes wrong I don't feel responsible for whatever you do.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Device will, format itself. Do initial setup without setting anything because you will need it to format again.
3. Boot device and turn on OEM unlock and USB debugging in to developer options in system settings.
4. Reboot device again.
5. Download stock firmware (you can use FRIJA or SAMFIRM tool from XDA.)
6. Unpack firmware zip
7. Connect tablet to your PC
8. From folder of unpacked firmware COPY AP file to your tablet SDCard/Documents folder.
9. Download and install latest Magisk Manager.apk on tablet.
10. Open Magisk Manager you will see "Magisk is NOT installed" in red letters but no problem.Set it EXACTLY like on picture 1.
11.Click "install" and you will see screen on picture 2.
12. Select "SELECT AND PATCH A FILE" and select that AP firmware file you previously copied from your PC
13. Magisk will start to patch a file. When patching is done...
14. Close Magisk Manager and open your SDCard/Documents folder on tablet. You will find there "MAGISK_PATCHED.TAR" file.
15. Copy that file from tablet to PC
FLASHING
Turn off tablet and put it in download mode
1. Open on PC patched ODIN 13.3 or 13.4 and UNTICK "reboot automaticly" on ODIN settings
2. Select files for flashing BL to BL, CP to CP, CSC to HOME_CSC....
BUT EXCEPT ORIGINAL AP FILE SELECT "MAGISK_PATCHED.TAR" FILE !
3. Flash all files to your tablet and disconnect from PC when ODIN finished
4. Reboot tablet into recovery and format data and cachee ! Restart tablet and wait few minutes to load
5. Set up tablet as usually.
6. Install Magisk Manager.apk and open it...It will do some patching updates then reboot itself.
7. Open Magisk Manager again and install Magisk zip from manager. Manager will root and reboot device itself.
8. You have a root without TWRP
.
To keep this guide short, same video procedure I found here...It is for S10+ but applicable for this tablet as well.
ROOT WITH MAGISK
.
Thank for that clarity .. i just get an Tab s6 and i needed i simple and recent tutorial.
This guide worked perfectly. The one with twrp didn't.
Thank you.
This didn't work for me.
3. Flash all files to your tablet and disconnect from PC when ODIN finished
4. Reboot tablet into recovery and format data and cachee ! Restart tablet and wait few minutes to load
I can't get into Recovery Mode to format. It freezes on the boot logo, I'll hold Volume Down + Side Key to power off, Volume Up + Side Key to boot into Recovery Mode but it just tried to boot normally and freezes on the boot logo.
Is it better to root first or flash TWRP.
EDIT: Duh!!

Before step 10 ensure that you have a Wi-Fi connection. I think Magisk requires it. Magisk would not produce the drop-down till I connected to the internet. Then everything worked fine.
Good man, thanks so much!

You need to restart tab after flashing BUT again in DOWNLOAD MODE...not in recovery ! Then flash TWRP and restart in twrp recovery.You need to untick AUTO REBOOT in Odin before flashing TWRP.
Not able to shutdown
After rooted with Magisk,my Tab S6 is not able to shutdown,no matter which methode I use,it just restart itself.
Does anyone have this issue?
worked perfect on oneui 3.1 aswell thank you
I rooted my Galaxy Tab S6 using the Magisk-only method after updating to Android 11. I had trouble with the post-Odin step (pressing power and volume up right after screen turns off) so I had to do the flash a couple more times before I got that right, and everything shows as rooted now.
However, my 256GB internal storage is only showing up as 32GB! Is that a firmware thing, or a partitioning thing? How can I fix it?
Used ther same method on my rooted tab with the May update (T865XXU4CUE1_T865OXM4CUE1_DBT) - magisk-patch AP, flash all files in Odin, after reboot the device is rooted.
BUT after another reboot (or rather shutdown and boot), root access is lost and cannot be restored in any way until I re-flash the device with the same firmware again.
Any solution to this?
6. Install Magisk Manager.apk and open it...It will do some patching updates then reboot itself.
7. Open Magisk Manager again and install Magisk zip from manager. Manager will root and reboot device itself.

This never happens. I even uninstalled Magisk Manager after patching, flashed the firmware, reinstalled the latest Canary Manager, still no patching or reboot happening.
Edit: just rebooted and shutdown a few times, root sticks. Before, I held VolUp as described in many guides until the "secured by Knox" logo appears, now didn't touch any button except Power.
Oh well...
How to Root Samsung Galaxy A7 2018 (a750fn) + Working Secure Folder & Samsung Health
Hello, this is a guide on how to root Samsung galaxy A7 2018 (a750fn). I've tried to simplify the guide as much as I can but I still suggest to root your phone only if you know what you are doing! Also if you have any questions or problems, just ask.
Note: Sorry for any grammatical or spelling mistakes. English is not my native language.
!Disclaimer!
- You do this at your own risk! I am NOT responsible for bricked devices, stuck on bootloop etc.!
- Backup your device before proceeding forward!
- This guide WILL trip Knox so your warranty will be void!
- The Knox-dependent applications like Secret Folder and Samsung Health will stop working but in this guide, there are two other miniguides that will explain how to enable them even after tripped Knox. - All of these steps have been tested on my phone - Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) (a750fn) where they worked without problems.
Required Software/Resources:
- Odin (for flashing) - Download
- Samsung USB Drivers - Download
- 7zip (for archives) - Download
- Firmware with the last security patch from 2020 (for me, the patch was from November 2020) - Download
- TWRP Recovery - Download
- Magisk (for root) - Download
- DM-VERITY, FORCED ENCRYPTION, AND DISC QUOTA DISABLER (Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt.zip) - Download
- A MicroSD card
Setup the Software/Resources:
1. Install 7zip
2. Install the Samsung USB Drivers
3. Extract Odin to a folder and put it on the Desktop
4. Extract the firmware to a folder and put it on the Desktop
In the firmware there'll be 5 files:
- BL_FIRMWAREVERSION
- AP_FIRMWAREVERSION
- CP_FIRMWAREVERSION
- CSC_OMC_OXM_FIRMWAREVERSION
- HOME_CSC_OMC_OXM_FIRMWAREVERSION (delete this one)
Delete the files starting with HOME_CSC.
5. Change the Magisk extension from .apk to .zip (Ex. Magisk_ver.apk --> Magisk_ver.zip)
6. Put the Magisk_ver.zip in the MicroSD card
7. Put the Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt.zip in the MicroSD card as well
8. Insert the MicroSD card in the phone
Steps to Root:
NOTE: BEFORE PROCEEDING FORWARD, BACKUP YOUR DEVICE!
1. Enable Developer Options (by clicking 7 times the build number of your phone)
2. Open Developer Options and find the option OEM Unlock
3. Enable OEM Unlock (this will factory reset the phone)
- After the factory reset the OEM Unlock option will be enabled and this will allow
flashing custom recoveries and etc. to the phone.
4. After the factory reset, when the phone boots up, turn it off
5. Connect the phone to you PC/Laptop via USB cable
6. While the phone is completely turned off, hold the buttons Volume UP + Volume DOWN until Download mode shows up
7. Press Volume UP again to confirm that you'll be modifying your device
8. On your PC/Laptop open Odin
9. On the left side in Odin there are 3 tabs: Log, Options and Pit
10. Open Options and remove the checkmark on the Auto Reboot option, then go back to Log
11. In the middle of the program there are 5 slots:
- BL (Bootloader)
- AP (Application Processor)
- CP (Modem)
- CSC (Consumer Software Customization)
- USERDATA
12. Click the first slot and navigate to the location where you extracted the firmware
- The start of the names of each firmware file corresponds to the names of the slots in Odin
13. Place each firmware file in the correct Odin slot that corresponds to their names
(Ex. BL_FIRMWAREVERSION is inside the BL slot)
14. With your phone connected, press the Start button to flash the firmware
- After the firmware has been flashed successfully, your phone will be downgraded to the last security patch from 2020 which fixes possible bootloops or other issues when rooting/disabling forced encryption.
- The firmware is successfully flashed when the top left bar is green and above says PASS!
After flashing the firmware DON'T boot in Android yet!
15. After flashing, hold the Volume DOWN + Power button for around 7 seconds, immediately when the screen goes black switch to holding Volume UP + Volume DOWN
- You will enter back in Download mode
16. In Odin, press the Reset button and again uncheck Auto Restart in Options
17. In the AP slot, select the TWRP Recovery (which is in .tar archive)
18. With your phone connected to your PC/Laptop in Download mode, press Start on Odin
- This will flash the custom recovery to the phone
19. You can now disconnect the phone from your PC/Laptop
Again, after flashing the recovery, do NOT boot into Android yet!
20. After flashing the custom recovery, hold the Volume DOWN + Power button for around 7 seconds, immediately when the screen goes black switch to holding Volume UP + Power button
- This will boot the phone into the custom recovery (TWRP in this case)
22. Inside TWRP Recovery, go to Wipe, select Format Data and type 'yes' to confirm
23. After the format, go to Install, select the MicroSD card and find where you've put the Magisk_ver.zip file, select it and install it
- This will root to the device!
24. After you have installed Magisk, go back to Install, select the MicroSD card and find where you've put Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt.zip and install it
- This will disable the forced encryption!
- If there's an error when installing the zip that says 'Failed to mount '/odm' (no such file or directory)", simply ignore it and proceed forward.
25. Go to Reboot, select System and wait around 5-10 minutes till Android fully loads
- After Android has loaded, proceed through the setup process.
26. Go to all apps and find the application called Magisk
- When you open it, it'll ask you to complete the installation of the Magisk app.
- It may also ask to reboot, to fully complete the installation.
27. After the application has been fully installed, your device will be Rooted and with disabled forced encryption!
Fix Secure Folder & Samsung Health
Note: TWRP Backup is recommended in case something fails
Samsung Health:
Required Software:
- A build.prop editor like this
Steps:
1. Install a build.prop editor from the play store
2. Give the build.prop editor root access
3. Open the editor and search for the line - ro.config.tima=1
4. Change the 1 to 0
(Ex. ro.config.tima=1 --> ro.config.tima=0)
5. Save and Reboot the device
6. After the reboot Samsung Health should work as expected
Secure Folder:
Required Software:
- Smali Patcher - Download
Steps:
2. Extract Smali Patcher.zip into a folder
3. Run as administrator
- Wait until it says 'idle..' at the bottom left of the program
4. Uncheck everything checked (like Mock locations, Mock providers, High volume warning etc.)
5. Check Samsung Knox
6. Enable USB Debugging on your phone
7. Connect your phone to your PC/Laptop
8. Press the ADB PATCH button
- A prompt will appear on your phone that asks if you allow your pc to do debugging mode operations on your phone.
9. Press allow on the prompt on your phone
- Wait until Smali Patcher is done.
- After Smali Patcher is done there should be a Magisk module inside it's folder.
10. Copy the Magisk module created by Smali Patcher to your phone
11. Open Magisk and go to Modules (the puzzle piece icon)
12. Tap on the button saying 'Install from storage'
13. Find the location where you've copied the module
14. Install the module
15. Restart your phone
16. If all done correctly, you should be able to set up and use Secure Folder

Code:
Your warranty is now void.
If you root your device, Your KNOX status will be tripped.
You can still pass the safety net after you root if you follow the instructions.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards although it is not really possible
Please do some research if you have any concerns about doing this to your device
How to flash official firmware? (not the root and unlock bootloader part!)
You will need:
A Galaxy A22 5G and common sense
Samsung Odin (the flashing tool of the official firmware)
https://dl2018.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.14.1.zip
You need to extract the zip file and you are going to use the file Odin3_v3.14.1.exe inside the folder.
Samsung Android USB Driver for Windows
Samsung Android USB Driver | Samsung Developers
You need the driver only if you are developing on Windows and want to connect a Samsung Android device to your development environment over USB.
developer.samsung.com
Double-click and install the exe file.
Samsung Official Firmware
Release 1.0.3 · zacharee/SamloaderKotlin
Contribute to zacharee/SamloaderKotlin development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
Download the platform you want to download to. (Windows)
You need to extract the zip and double click open the file Bifrost.exe inside the folder.
You need to fill in the Model, Region, press the Check for Updates button and the Download button.
How to find the Model: on your phone → Settings → About Phone → The third row says the Model number and you need to remove the part with the part of /xx, for example, SM-A226B/DS and you only need to type SM-A226B
How to find the Region: You can check the Region at this link https://samfrew.com/model/SM-S908B/
You need to find find a three-letter word depending on your carrier and country and type it in Bifrost, for example, EVR
Press the Check for Update button and download it with the Download button.
Put it to a place you can easily find, ie. Desktop.
After downloading it, find the file SM-xxxxx_x_xxxxxxxx_xxx.zip.enc4 on the place you put it and change the document format from .enc4 to .zip. Then, double click and extract the file.
Open Odin3_v3.14.1.exe and turn off your phone. Connect a side of your USB to your PC/Laptop, keep pressing volume up and down together until you go to Download Mode. Put another side of the USB into your phone. When you arrived at Download Mode press volume up. Go back to Odin3_v3.14.1.exe:
-Click on BL and select BL_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
-Click on AP and select AP_xxxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
-Click on CP and select CP_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
(If you want to keep your data don't flash CSC).
-Click on CSC and select CSC_OMC_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
-Click on USERDATA and select HOME_CSC_OMC_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
Press Start to flash the firmware, after done, your device will automatically reboot to the system.
How to unlock the bootloader?
Go to your phone → Settings → About Phone → Software information → Press Build number 6 times until you see the notice “You’re now a developer”
Go in Settings → Developer options → enable OEM unlocking
Power off your phone first. Then, connect a side of your USB to your PC/Laptop, keep pressing volume up and down together until you go to Download Mode. Put another side of the USB into your phone.
When you arrived at Download Mode, long press volume up until you see the black screen. Confirm to unlock the bootloader and you will erase your device.
How to root your phone?
After you unlock your bootloader, you set up your phone and make sure you do not sign in google account first. Install Magisk https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v24.1/Magisk-v24.1.apk on your phone. Oh yes, in case you do not know, you need to allow the app to install apps so that you can install the apk.
Transfer AP_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5 in the firmware you download from your PC/Laptop to your phone.
Open Magisk on your phone and press the install button in the Magisk column. Select 'Select and Patch a File', 'Let's Go' and find the AP_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5 and select it. You can have a cup of coffee if you like when you waiting for the patching of the file.
After finishing the patching, you need to transfer the file magisk_patched-24xxx_xxxxx.tar in the Downloads folder back to your PC/Laptop.
Turn off your phone. Connect a side of your USB to your PC/Laptop, keep pressing volume up and down together until you go to Download Mode. Put another side of the USB into your phone. When you arrived at Download Mode press volume up. Open Odin3_v3.14.1.exe on your PC/Laptop:
Click on BL and select BL_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
-Click on AP and select magisk_patched-24xxx_xxxxx.tar
-Click on CP and select CP_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
(If you want to keep your data don't flash CSC).
-Click on CSC and select CSC_OMC_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
-Click on USERDATA and select HOME_CSC_OMC_xxxxxxxxxx.tar.md5
When it finishes flashing it, it will automatically reboot and you can gain root access.
Optional: If you want to have the safety net passed (most of the banking apps use it), then you need to install the zip
as a Magisk module in Magisk https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix/releases
How? Go to Magisk → Modules → install from storage and select the zip you downloaded.
Or you could just get your AP file and extract your boot.img.lz4 (use lz4 from github), put it on your phone and patch it with Magisk, then flash the VBMeta that this thread has in Odin, reboot and erase the cache and data in the stock recovery, rebooting to download mode again and flashing your magisk patched boot img in a tar file.

I agree with you. You can also use this way. However, using Magisk does all the jobs makes life easier and I am a bit lazy
Hi! I'm new into rooting and I just wanted to know, What's the risk of bricking when using magisk? I've rooted an old phone successfully via TWRP tho this way seems a bit more direct, and can I choose any region during the official firmware download?

The worst that would happen is a bootloop, which you can easily fix with a factory reset (not a good solution, but at least it works). The only dangerous part is installing the wrong TWRP version or a failed Odin flash, but no bricks. Odin mode will almost always work. Just make sure you have a charger in good condition.
As for picking regions, I'd just pick the phone's original region, if I were you. I'm not actually sure if region is tied to the device itself but better safe than sorry.
Greetings...
To check your Buld Number or Build Version, before you proceed doing any stuffs, type on the phone keypad this >>> *#1234#* and it will show on your device screen

I am not familiar with the A22 series, but I will say this: I'm rather wary of questionable root solutions, especially those that aren't open source. This is why I personally prefer Magisk - it is completely open source, so anyone who would like to examine the code can do so.
Sorry, when i See this tutorial, my phone has updated to android 13. Could this step possible to do now with this android version?
Very much thank you for the information!
have successfully run the tutorial above. even already using GSI rom android 13 from pixelExperience. but the network you get is stuck on 4G. are there any tools or tutorials to restore the 5g network.

Code:
Your warranty is now void.
If you root your device, Your KNOX status will be tripped.
You can still pass the safety net after you root if you follow the instructions.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards although it is not really possible
Please do some research if you have any concerns about doing this to your device

Have you tried Universal Safetynet fix? https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
I rooted the phone according to your guide
But after everything I can't connect to the internet
Youtube, system update doesn't work
MAGISK itself was able to update without any problem
Chrome will turn on pages, but without images and displays error about unsecured connection
