Thank you very much for making this !! At first I thought I really need twrp recovery wich I was failing installing and because of that I was stuck for months,but luckily I found this metod wich worked.Even if I accidentally downgraded to android 10 (had 11 but oh well) but I finally rooted my phone with magisk xd
When I go to the dev options I don't see "OEM unlocking" 3:45 . And also at 10:50 I don't see an option to long press volume up to enable "Unlock mode" the two options I have are volume up to continue and and volume down to restart.
when I open the magisk app, after the bootloader odin process it just asks me to "update the app" but it doesn't update also it doesn't say that is magisk but is the magisk manager..... What should I do?
Nice,easy explanation ! Before i carry on with it tho i have a small question, could i backup my data with smart switch and recover it after the whole process? thanks.
This ONLY worked because your system has RAMDISK. If in Magisk, RAMDISK is set to No, all your installation process is invalid. You have lucky and got the easy way to install Magisk
Hi, Ive done everything as on the video. After phone restarted it was all fresh. When I then installed magisk again, it still says N/A by installed. When checked with root checker, also says no root. Any ideas? Samsung galaxy s7 edge
It won't let me transfer the AP_S127DLUD ... to my Galaxy A12 . What should I do ? Do I have to factory reset my phone ? I already backed everything up
When i try to extract my AP , BL , CP , CS and HOME_CSC files form the ZIP folder, it says the file is corrupted , i extracted anyways but is it usually corrupted files? and can i root my phone with that file? , what should i do? . By the way thanks for this video :)
Man i dont know if you'll reply to this ASAP but i need your reply rn. When i do the step in 10:56 i press the volume up button on my Samsung J4+ but it straight up goes to the Downloading.... Page (No black screen nothing...) (The Thing in 14:15) pls help me. And FYI yeah i did try a rooting process from another video earlier and it told me to unlock the bootloader first even if it meant resetting and i did that first and didn't turn it off idk man find a fix
Sorry, old device usually have different key combos, I think you have to press volume down + power key + home button to go to download mode. Edit: old Samsung devices have to bypass FRP using an APK instead of unlocking bootloader. Your OEM unlocking have to be on, though
I couldn't enter the download mode mentioned at 14:10 min in the video! Can you please help? I am trying to root Samsung a53. Now whenever i restart phone i have a notification that the bootloader is on- in this phone and is insecure. Is there a way to remove that? P.S- i am a newbie to this world, so please help!
So everything is fine until 10:38, where I try and restart it. I hold both volume buttons for a long time but it just starts in Safe Mode. (I'm on GalaxyJ5)

Not worked for me I have glaaxy A10s. Anything can be done?
First, make sure you have unlocked bootloader. Then, you have modded your firmware with magisk correctly. Afterwards, you should have your modded firmware flashed without errors
followed every step, except after odin loaded the firmware, I got lost after that however I wiped the phone just like you did. when the phone came back up magisk did not download on it
@@themoviechannel1712 Well, you have wiped your phone mean you have wiped at unlocking your bootloader or the wipe at the end of the video? Have you used Magisk App to flash the firmware?
