The patched kernel contained here was the solution for me

This worked great, thanks. Only issue I met was that I couldn't see the OEM unlock switch, so it didn't let me to flash TWRP from Odin (even though it was already unlocked), giving me "only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed(recovery)" error.
The solution for that was following these steps: https://www.xda-developers.com/fix-...y-s9-samsung-galaxy-s8-samsung-galaxy-note-8/
EDIT: no wait, maybe it's bootlooping.
EDIT2: yes it is. I'm using italian carrier, you?
EDIT3: at the end I created a custom boot.img by using Magisk and I flashed it. In this way I kept encryption and stock recovery, but this doesn't give me write permissions in /system. But I do have root.

it stucks for me on the samsung logo

I got it to work on a Bulgarian unlocked model
Maybe try flashing the twrp flashable firmware after the mod

omg it was so easy!
after you flashed twrp and formated data you just have to flash magisk and that's it

I done that, but still stuck on SAMSUNG logo, no boot loop or what. I was waiting 10min, nothing happened.
Any advice?

Hi there,
after having tried different methods to root my S9, which has updated to Android 10 One UI 2.0 this morning, maybe the solution that finally worked for me will help you too.
First I tried to root just like in Pie, as found on the net: flashed TWRP 3.2.3 via Odin, then flashed Magisk with TWRP plus this no-verity-opt-encrypt. Got stuck in bootloop, tried different no-verity/dm-verity versions, Magisk 18.x and Magisk 20.1. Nothing worked, got stuck again every time i rebootet the system again.
Then, after realising that I CANT get back to Android 9 (old rom wasnt Odin flashable anymore, phone didnt boot, BSoD), I first downloaded the new stock rom and bootloader as zip, got it from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81615561&postcount=1830.
You have to check if that fits with your version / phone. Once downloaded, I copied both onto my SD card. So now I was able to install at least the new clean stock rom. Oh, and now I used the TWRP version 3.3.1.
Then I found this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/development/root-s9plus-exynos-android10-t4065343
At first I tried to root without the SoLdieR9312's mod, only with MAGISK 20.3 and no-verity. Stuck again, it only bootet to download mode, nothing else. So flashed again the clean stock rom, and after first not keeping the right order (I suppose) I finally followed EXACTLY the instructions 1 - 4 in above manual including SoLdieR9312's mod (I highly recommend first a complete Wipe, format data, and then flash the clean new Rom with Android 10 and bootloader from above link).
Now, to save you the time I spent today: once your phone is bootet (and succesfully rooted via Magisk 20.3, which will happen automatically due to the SoLdieR9312's mod), DONT LET MAGISK UPDATE TO VERSION 20.4!!!! Magisk Manager asks you to update, but when I did update to 20.4, everything fell apart again, it only bootet to download mode.
Now I seem to have it stable and running with 20.3 and the [email protected]. I rebootet 5 times so far just for the sake of it, and it works fine and rootet.
If I can be of further help, please let me know. I spent the last 12 hours on this matter, so dont hesitate.
Greetz from me minus a bunch of nerves
PS: After I wrote the above, I deleted the Knox family in the rootet system, and then it collapsed again and, after BSoD, it only rebootet into download mode. I can not exclude the possibility, that this might have been the reason for some system breakdowns before, as I had to re-do the wipe-clean-install-then-root-then-customize worksteps aroung 8 times yesterday before it was stable as it is now. Now I´ll leave Knox on it, though that itches me a bit. But I´m exhausted for now
PPS: IMPORTANT when I try to create a PIN or a pattern for the lock screen, phone reboots to SIM card PIN screen and then keeps rebooting and rebooting. It looks like there are some interferences with root and PIN / security. I did NOT create a Samsung account, only a google one, cause in the beginning i suspected it might have been a Sam acct problem (I constantly couldnt log into it on the phone). Turns out that might not have been the case, rather a prob between root and setting a lock screen security.

Screwed up trying to root, stuck in bootloop

So, I've got a 64gb black sprint Galaxy S6, non-edge. This morning, it had stock 5.11 on it, but I decided I wanted to root it, and ... I screwed up. I got Odin 3.10.6 and installed CF-Auto-Root-zerofltespr-zerofltespr-smg920p.tar.md5 which I now know does not work with 5.11. Since then, bootloop. Reboots every minute or so. I've tried everything I can find, wiping everything, flashing what purport to be stock ROMs, putting TWRP on there, and still within a minute of booting it reboots. I tried installing Smart Switch, but it can't get a connection because the phone just won't stay booted.
Rooting would be nice, but I just want my phone to work again. What can I do here? I don't have insurance and KNOX is flipped.
if you're sure you are on 5.1.1, flash any kernel (unikernel v8, etc.) that would fix your issue.
I should mention this is a SM-G920P, if that's significant.
I flashed the stock package through Odin, then TWRP, then installed Hacker Kernel through that. It's still rebooting repeatedly while i try to go through the initial setup process, and dumping me at the language select each time.
I tried unikernel too, didn't work either.
Okay, here's my current process, which is not working.
Boot to ODIN/Download mode, by holding power+volume down+home.
Open Odin 3.10.6, as administrator. Auto-Reboot is unchecked.
Flash what's supposed to be the latest stock rom, obtained here.
Wait until it says PASS, then reboot into ODIN mode again.
Flash the TWRP 2.8.7.0 tar, obtained here.
Wait until it says PASS, then reboot into recovery, by holding power+volume down+home until it reboots and then power+volume up+home to enter recovery.
Wipe Data/Cache/Darvik.
Transfer Hacker Kernel and SuperSU .zips, obtained here, to storage on phone.
Use TWRP to install Hacker Kernel, as instructed on that page.
Reboot into recovery.
Use TWRP to install Super SU. Note: In the section of the log reading Boot Image Patcher, I get Extracting ramdisk, Decompressing ramdisk, Failure, aborting. Important?
Reboot.
Now it's sitting on the Samsung Galaxy S6 screen, and not going any farther than that.
I tried flashing nothing but the stock 5.1.1 package, but that's not working either. It still keeps rebooting, and it won't ever get past the screen that says "Preparing your device for first-time use... This may take 3 or 4 minutes." Is there anything I can do? I can't afford to not have a phone and I can't afford to replace this one. Please, help me.
I've redownloaded everything, checking md5 sums, and those are all correct. Flashing the BOL1 stock gets me rebooting, flashing it and then Unikernel v8 gets me rebooting, flashing it and then Unikernel v9 gets me rebooting, flashing it and then Unikernel v9 and then TWRP has me rebooting.
It boots up and stays up for a minute or two, enough to get a little ways into the setup. The first boot, it stays on the Sprint screen for a while, then reboots after about a second on the language select screen. When it gets back there, I can select language, connect to wifi, accept the EULA, and then wait on the "Preparing your device for first-time use" screen for a little while before it reboots. Sometimes it'll get as far as asking me if I want to let Google collect diagnostic data.
Hardware issue...i had the same issue with similar process. I had to get a replacement phone
Is it possible that trying to install the Chainfire root package on a 5.11 phone just broke something permanently? Could it be something partition-related, maybe? I'm at a total loss here.
This should help

I had the same issue also with the SM-G920P.
Problems:
*unikernal > v6 (v7 and above == bootloop)
*hackerkernal on non-teamsprint rom == bootloop
*cf auto root was not required for root
What fixed it for me:
1. Odin back to stock 5.1.1
2. Flash TWRP
3. Boot into recovery
4. Reboot (it should tell you that root is not installed or something like that, so if it asks to install root let it)
5. Once booted into os SuperSU will tell you to update the su binary, update then reboot
6. Congratulations you have root.

Did 1, did 2, did 3, did 4 but it didn't give any message like that, and now it's just repeating the "Samsung Galaxy S6 Powered By Android" screen over and over.
Unless when you say "Odin back to stock 5.1.1" you mean flashing 5.1.1 and then going through the setup to a functioning OS, because I have never been able to do that since I started.

To Odin back to stock 5.1.1 properly follow the steps on this page exactly with the files it tells you to use http://www.androidrootz.com/2015/05/how-to-unroot-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge.html
Then you'll need a ROM, i recommend this http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...ment/ram9200-ofe-rom-thread-v3-5-1-1-t3173417
Once in recovery flash it (skip to step 7 in the link) then boot up, if that doesn't work I don't know what will.
Tried that, now it boots as far as the Sprint screen but hangs there and then reboots.

Hardware issue
Any advice on getting a replacement? I still have about $500 left on the monthly installments for this phone, and I don't have insurance. The Sprint stores I went to said to go to Samsung for a replacement for a malfunctioning phone, since I've had it for less than a year, since KNOX is flipped I'm guessing Samsung won't give me a thing.
I uploaded a file to Mediafire called 2016-03-20--04-15-35_G920P_Renegade_OJ7_v1.zip
This is a TWRP backup of my phone's system/radio/boot/efs, it should replace anything that doesn't work. I don't know if it'll work but it's worth a try.
Copy the zipped folder to TWRP/BACKUPS and restore your phone
Okay. Can you link to the mediafire page to download it?

If ever the EFS is cleared, deleted whatever. It re-builds from block 12, so there's no need to worry too much.

I would do a quick repartition, nand erase all, flash stock ROM boot it, and flash from there. Hope it goes well.

Should I do re-partition then nand erase all and then flash rom or should I do them altogether?

Help. Stuck in TWRP boot loop after downloading latest update OTA

Hi guys,
As soon as I got the OP3 in July, I somehow managed to successfully perform all the steps to get it rooted. I was running OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_013_all_1608061823_765c081a5c8e4dad.zip
OnePlus has been showing me a "new version available" since September, but I very patiently and calmly didn't install it OTA because I didn't want to lose the root.
Finally had a bit of time today, decided I'd finally upgrade. Looked around for the "most recent stable version" and picked this one: OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_035_all_1612310359_e10cadfb2af7.zip
Followed the steps for flashing using TWRP (twrp-3.0.2-1.28-oneplus3) here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oxygenos-4-0-android-nougut-official-t3529684
It worked. Yay. Then (god dammit **** ****) I still saw this "new version available" and couldn't swipe it away... I accidentally clicked it and it downloaded the OTA. Fine.
Now I'm stuck in a TWRP boot loop. I tried re-installing the OTA_035.zip from TWRP -- I tried restoring my Nandroid Backup (only had enough room to save "Boot / Recovery / System" partitions, NOT data) -- and I tried ADB Sideloading 16_OTA_013.zip.
I'm stuck rebooting in TWRP 3.0.2-1.
Is there anything I can try before going ballistic and wiping my data?
Thanks.
Marc

Hey Puddi_Puddin, thanks for replying.
I never heard of blu-spark, but gave it a shot. Even though the guide seems to apply only to OP3T: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...-or-custom-recovery-without-data-loss.479265/
Anyways I flashed blu-spark with ADB. Booted into blu-spark. Wiped Dalvik/Cache, re-installed OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_035_all_1612310359_e10cadfb2af7.zip, wiped Dalvik/Cache, rebooted -- keeps booting into blu-spark TWRP.
Get the "device unlocked" error screen, then the dm-verity error screen, then the OnePlus logo for about 2 seconds, and then back to blu-spark. Repeat ad nauseum.
What state is my device even in? I wouldn't call it bricked... I assume it's still rooted, bootloader works, I can flash different TWRP versions, ...
Any other ideas ... ?

After you've flashed the full zip, flash also the latest stable version of SuperSu (2.79) and latest TWRP from @eng.stk (the v11, it solves the dm-verity error). Then reboot to recovery, it should appear TWRP and the error should't appear.

There are quite a few versions of TWRP from eng.stk (bluspark). Which one did you install? Try version 11 which is supposedly for N or 3.0.2-19 or 23.
Thanks for your help everyone.
I downloaded SuperSU-v2.79 here http://downloadmirror.co/Utz/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.79-20161211114519.zip

From where have you dowloaded the OTA? XDA or OnePlus forum?
I saw a thread regarding the OnePlus 3T update some post above, if you've downloaded from there you've made a mistake if you own a OnePlus 3.

You mean 3.0.2-19 or 23. Not blu_spark, right? Ok I tried twrp-3.0.2-23-oneplus3.img from here (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862684308)
I tried flashing my old images I used last year (I just wanted the phone to boot into *something*) Oxygen_16_OTA_013 & SuperSU-v2.74. Managed to boot. Updated 4 Apps (??) But as soon as the login screen came up, it would reboot ... and keep looping. So I couldn't use the phone, but at least I managed to boot into something other than TWRP.
Next I tried to reinstall OOS4, 16_OTA_035 with SuperSU-v2.79 SR2. Still get the verity error, but at least I managed to boot! But - the phone is *super* buggy/unusable... SIM cards aren't working - I can't access my options screen - and "Developer options are not available for this user".
Now from my "About" screen I have OOS 4.0, Android 7.0, Kernel version 3.18.31-perf+ [email protected] <-- (that's from my TWRP version. right?)
Did the OTA I install from OnePlus directly screw everything up? For that brief moment before I installed it, I tasted a seemingly properly working OOS 4, so I know it's possible...
A few lessons I've learned are -- I can use any recovery (TWRP) to use MTP and flash files and stuff... but in order for the phone to work properly, I have to a) flash the SuperSU (not just the ROM) and b) make sure I have the "correct/proper" TWRP (kernel?) matched with each ROM. Is that kind of right? That's where I'm stuck I guess.

This post mentions a procedure to get rid of verity https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/fix-device-mapper-verity-simple-trick-t3530685
I'm currently backing up my data, and I'll attempt to follow these instructions to switch to f2fs (hopefully get rid of the verity error) and install OxygenOS 4.0.1 (http://otafsc.h2os.com/patch/amazon...n_16_OTA_037_all_1701041839_aa64b084a40a4.zip)
I'm also a bit confused about the best version of SuperSU-v2.79 to use, because blu_spark was writing somewhere (can't find where) that SR1 and SR2 were the cause of battery issues ... So yeah, I've got other things to try, but should the ROM from OOS4.0.1 work with any of them?
THANKS.

(I read here https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...mple-trick-t3530685/post70415499#post70415499 that .28 shouldn't be used)
This post mentions a procedure to get rid of verity https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/fix-device-mapper-verity-simple-trick-t3530685
I'm currently backing up my data, and I'll attempt to follow these instructions to switch to f2fs (hopefully get rid of the verity error) and install OxygenOS 4.0.1 (http://otafsc.h2os.com/patch/amazon...n_16_OTA_037_all_1701041839_aa64b084a40a4.zip)
I'm also a bit confused about the best version of SuperSU-v2.79 to use, because blu_spark was writing somewhere (can't find where) that SR1 and SR2 were the cause of battery issues ... So yeah, I've got other things to try, but should the ROM from OOS4.0.1 work with any of them?
THANKS.

Unfortunately I haven't tried to update the phone yet, so I don't know what else you can do. But you can also follow the guide posted by @Viper The Ripper here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70499899&postcount=5
I think that it's simpler and I'll follow that one this weekend when trying to updating my phone

Hi guys,
As soon as I got the OP3 in July, I somehow managed to successfully perform all the steps to get it rooted. I was running OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_013_all_1608061823_765c081a5c8e4dad.zip
OnePlus has been showing me a "new version available" since September, but I very patiently and calmly didn't install it OTA because I didn't want to lose the root.
Finally had a bit of time today, decided I'd finally upgrade. Looked around for the "most recent stable version" and picked this one: OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_035_all_1612310359_e10cadfb2af7.zip
Followed the steps for flashing using TWRP (twrp-3.0.2-1.28-oneplus3) here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oxygenos-4-0-android-nougut-official-t3529684
It worked. Yay. Then (god dammit **** ****) I still saw this "new version available" and couldn't swipe it away... I accidentally clicked it and it downloaded the OTA. Fine.
Now I'm stuck in a TWRP boot loop. I tried re-installing the OTA_035.zip from TWRP -- I tried restoring my Nandroid Backup (only had enough room to save "Boot / Recovery / System" partitions, NOT data) -- and I tried ADB Sideloading 16_OTA_013.zip.
I'm stuck rebooting in TWRP 3.0.2-1.
Is there anything I can try before going ballistic and wiping my data?
Thanks.
Marc

In my opinion, the only thing you can try is to make a data backup from recovery to any external storage (like a pendrive) by Otg, but it takes some risks. In case this partition has been damaged, you can get issues when you install the rom.
The safest you can do is clean installation in spite of you lose data so, full wipes and a new full rom.

You have to install stock recovery, and then reboot into recovery, you will have a instalation error, reboot and loop solved Then, you can flash your twrp and su without loosing data
I discovered following this threath desesperate and going to do a clean install, dowload the files and try to do it steap by steap: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/fix-device-mapper-verity-simple-trick-t3530685

P.D.: I have formated system partition, so I lost the android configuration

Hey Satisastur,
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Yes, actually that's exactly the guide I wanted to follow. But I'm stuck before even starting -- if I make Nandroid Backup now (in ext4) I can't load it back once filesystem changes to f2fs -- isn't that right?
(I also asked the question in that thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...rity-simple-trick-t3530685/page8#post70525818 )
And uh... sorry... what exactly do you mean "android configuration"... like ringtones and stuff?

Yes, I was on f2fs before this happens, so I only have to install all without formating data. You should do a manual backup to do that, once on recovery, you be able to enter phone data partition from windows. Copy all folders you want to save before formating to f2fs in recovery. Other setup and configuration like ringtones and stuff, all cache and configuration of apps, wallpaper, led, colors and themes... you will lost it. I don't know how to backup that, but its the worst part of formating data... google backup doesn't save all the config
You will start with the android phone start menu, like new, with new dactilar and patron security, etc...

Try TWRP 3.0.2_19 and Supersu 2.79 stable. For some people this works and according to eng. stk, only Supersu 2.79 stable is compatible with N.

Bootloop on Oreo, plus, anyone has stock image of Oreo

So i sideload the Oreo on Nougat. Everything was fine. Then i rooted with magisk and it is no stuck in bootloop. The only way to boot up the device is to go to bootloader screen and hit start. I flashed an image found on this forum and nothing changed. I believe i need a new image ?
Thank you
There is an Oreo .xml.zip, but I don't know for which versions it is:

The solution is in this post -- https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/how-to/guide-how-to-magisk-root-xposed-oreo-8-t3743273
The user Rafikowi give the solution in that post. - "Good Luck" :good:
UPDATE 20.04.2018
If you flashed everything as described in OP and noticed that you got stuck in boot, go to TWRP again and:
1. Uninstall Magisk using latest Magisk uninstaller.
2. Flash Magisk 16.0 or 16.2 (does not matter) AGAIN (yes.).
3. Flash f2fs-loopback-bug-workaround-2018.1.31.zip
4. Enjoy rooted phone.
PS. I do not know why device does not start after first flashing to be honest, but these four steps above are confirmed by several users (and by me last night).

Help With Twrp+Root

Hey guys n gals
Smashed my s8+ the other day accidentally so picked up a z2 play for something completely different for me, but I am having issues with recovery and then root..
I've unlocked the bootloader that was simple, my problem first starts with doing Twrp, I flash it, boot up, then instantly prompted with the password for decryption. From what I read on the post for installing Twrp that should come after? My data partition vanishes and I think I changed it to ext4 so it worked, phone booted and all was well, so I went to do magisk 16 (I'm running stock 8.0) flash it all is well then when I boot up the phone just boots, shows the unlocked bootloader message, then keeps doing that and sometimes it boots to recovery randomly..
Not sure if I've missed something when doing thel processes but followed the instructions to the letter and I always end up having to reinstall stock and start fresh. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Saome time the Magisk make you a bootloop. try to uninstall it.

Device turns off randomly after root

Hi guys, I rooted my redmi note 8 yesterday. Everything went well except two things: on boot the error message said that "there is an internal problem" and the phone reboots/shuts down itself.
Any thoughts?

You should explain the problem obviously if you want a help, if your phone still working you should flash twerp.img to be able to root it and solve any existing problem by flashing new rom

If you still want to root it again,after flasing new rom go to twero and then go to wipe then format,you should format your phone after rom flashing,try this and inform me
Yes yes! I want to root phone once again. So the steps are these:
1) booting into twrp with adb from pc.
2) from the twrp menu wiping and formating the data
3) instaling new rom
Is this true?
Thanks!
If you want to root you don't have to install another custom rom unless you don't like the stock rom. If you like your current stock rom, then flash twrp in fastboot and download the latest magisk stable zip and also diasble dm-verity zip. Using twrp first flash disable dm-verity zip and then magisk zip, wipe dalvik cache and reboot to system, hopefully you would have root permission.

From your stock rom extract the boot.img and place it on your SD card. Flash the boot image using twrp or you can also flash in fastboot, then reboot. Now boot to twrp recovery and flash dm-verity first and then magisk zip. Worked for me I'm having root permission with stock rom.

the bootloader was unlocked. everything went kinda fine, until i flashed youtube vanced from magisk: when i did that, the system was unable to boot. i don't know what's happening. is there anything to do with kernel or something? really interesting what i am doing wrong.

I think it may be because of YouTube vanced module. If you remove the module you might be able to boot. In twrp in the advanced option select file manager and then select data/adb/magisk/ in that you will find the list of installed modules, select the one which is causing the problem and delete that folder and try to reboot.

that thread is for redmi note 5 pro..and flashing different kernel probably won't solve it because I know few guys flashed genom kernel but still ended up with reboot in huaxing display. Maybe waiting for fix is better.
