So i have had me galaxy M30 for a while now it came out with android 9.0(Pie) and just recently got the android 10 update to OneUI 2. I haven't rooted it or installed a custom boot loader yet. i wanted to do that and i was doing some research and I read about how TWRP isnt ready for phones that come with android 10 out of the box. i was wondering if the would have a problem on my M30 too or if its safe.
if it is safe to install TWRP in my M30 the has already been updated to android 10. Then where can i get the suitable version of twrp and the steps to install it. Also where can i get the stock boot loader incase I wanted to change it back.
device info:
Galaxy M30 SM-M305F
android 10 (OneUI 2)
Exynos 7904
security update version M305FDDU3CSL5
Thanks

Hi Everyone!
I'm in great trouble so I decided to post my problem here. If it doesn't belong to here please help me where to post and instantly get answers.
I've a beautiful Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini SGH-I257 AT&T smartphone without any issues. It is running on android 4.4.2. As we all know Cynogenmod has end its development and the successor is LineageOS.
From a long time I was searching for at least a lollipop update for my smartphone on-the-air but AT&T didn't release any lollipop update to SGH-I257. When I was searching for the lollipop update, I found LineageOS providing official custom ROM updating my android to 7.0 Nought.
For this I rooted and tried to install TWRP Recovery but it was not successful. When I rebooted into recovery there was a message "Software installed is unauthorised please contact your nearby AT&T Store." and then I came to know it have a locked bootloader but I'm not sure about this. And one thing to mention I flash TWRP Recovery using universal method by installing the app.
Now please help me how I can unlock bootloader if it is locked?
How I can flash TWRP Recovery using any other method?
Thankyou.
I am using a rooted Galaxy S9+ running the latest version of LightROM.
I recently discovered that Android 10 beta is out but since I am on a custom ROM, I have decided that I want to revert back to stock and then use Samsung Members in order to obtain the update. From what I understood, I needed to flash a firmware that is eligible for the beta update, which is why I downloaded the latest UK firmware from SamMobile (G965FXXU7CSK1_G965FOVF7CSK1_VOD).
I would like to know how things will work before I proceed. These are the steps from my understanding:
1) Backup everything so I can format the device
2) Flash the firmware mentioned above using ODIN
3) After the installation is complete, run Samsung Members in order to obtain the update or use one of the OTA zip files floating around (for S9+ Exynos)
4) After the update is complete, flash TWRP and root using this guide
Am I missing something or is that the entire process? My phone's model number is SM-G965FZKGEGY and it is an unlocked variant of the Exynos Galaxy S9+ (dual-sim). Would my phone have to be from a specific region (CSC or w.e) or should the process above work fine? And lastly, is Spotify still broken on Android 10 or was it fixed with an update?
Thanks a lot for your time.
Hello how can i get directions to flash twrp and root on my 10+5g sm-n976 i already unlocked the bootloader
I know if you search a form there is unlocking for our V model, but I spoke to the guy and if there is no development backing this device (and its soon going to pass the range it ever will) So why unlock the bootloader if there is no next step? Just sharing what I have remembered, cheers mate!
did you find a solution? I manage to root the same model as yours tricking the lz4 files which is the new type of extension in Android and for this you can not root in a normal way. I followed this guide
Fix Oreo Firmware Installation Issue in Odin for Samsung Devices - DroidViews
Android Oreo has finally made its way to Samsung's latest S series flagships, the Galaxy S8 and S8+. The Oreo update brings with it the usual Android Oreo features such as Picture-in-Picture, redesigned Settings app, etc. It also brings with it Samsung Experience 9.0 which is but a fancier name…

After having the 4 stock files modified without lz4 you must flash them with Odin.
After you take the modified AP file and patch it with Magisk.
Then you flash again stock using the patched AP file and the rest of modified files but you must not select autoreboot in Odin. When the flashing is done you must exit download mode and imediatelly enter in Recovery mod but better use this guide

Hi All,
I've got a Note 10+ 5G and was wondering how would one go about rooting this device on the latest Samsung firmware
N976BXXU6FUBDThe guides that I have seen such as Dr.Ketans thread, instruct to flash a boot loader image that on his media fire page. does not match the firmware I'm running.
As I wouldn't want to flash anything that would break the phone, I'm wondering if someone can give me a method on how to root the stock rom.
thanks

Hi, I am in exactly the same boat, did you solve it and get your sm-n976b rooted and if so how, Please and thanks/
Hey, guys! This is my first time posting, so I apologize if my post is missing some key details or isn't of quality in some other way.
I am currently looking into installing LineageOS onto my Samsung Galaxy A7 (SM-A720S); on the LineageOS installation documentation, it said to make sure that my device was running Android Oreo (Android 8.0). Since my device had Android Pie (Android 9.0) installed, I downloaded the Android 8.0 stock ROM for my device and region from SamMobile, and I also downloaded Odin v3.14.1 (un-patched as I am using a ROM for the same region) from the XDA forums.
Furthermore, I turned on developer settings on my phone and enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging. Attempting to flash Android 8.0 onto my device resulted in the following error message:
SW Rev. Check Fail (Bootloader) Device: 5 Binary: 3

From poking around in the forums, I learnt that this means there is a mismatch between the bootloader version and the binary I am trying to flash. Is there any way to either downgrade the bootloader in order to be able to flash Android 8.0 or is there some way to trick the device/odin into thinking that the Android 8.0 has a binary of 5?
I really want to try LineageOS. so I would appreciate any advice on how to work around this issue.
That was a slight oversight on my end, because there aren't many A720S users. Your pie bootloader is fine, you can flash lineage.
