Dear all,
I 've been always receiving updates whenever i was loading official 6.0.1 til to 7.0 which was the latest for my channel . I was on Lineage 7.1.2 for a couple of days and reverted back to 6.0.1 when I was informed that 7.1.1 came available on our channel ( reteu).
The problem this time is that I get " your device's software is up to date" when I am trying to update the sw.
Any help would be highly appreciated .

The blank-flash was unsuccessful to all users. The Loader.img is being tested by some guys. (folks at ArykTECH managed to build a Loader.img that is supposed to work, unlike the ones we extract from our phones, as described by the "DIY" section)

It happened to me too. I had 4 variable rom choices for RETASIA. Only one of them was responsible to get my updates back. I had to try them all

How to get an S9 G960U1 rooted?

I tried today to root this phone in all sorts of ways, but mainly I got stuck at the first step of getting a custom recovery, I found the twrp files for my phone, but when I tried to flash the file in Odin I got an error of "secure check fail : recovery"
I tried different versions of Odin.
I also tried t use fastboot, but it couldn't recognize my device, (adb devices shows my device, while fastboot doesn't [and of course I'm in download mode])
I've tried all sorts of drivers, from universal drivers to the specific one for my device from the Samsung website, fastboot still didn't see me device...
I have no idea what to do now...
I managed to get an official stock firmware update, that's all I was able to do...

AFAIK, root isnt possible for the 960U's, only the 960F's

I think I saw someone write they were able to root it.. though I couldn't find it again for some reason...
Also, it's supposed to be an UNLOCKED phone with the U1 software... I don't understand how or why it cannot be rooted (or change to a custom ROM)...
Hope someone know how to get it done

"Unlocked" means carrier SIM unlocked. Different thing.
All Qualcomm Snapdragon variants have locked bootloaders that prevent rooting. Except the Chinese variant - the lone exception.
There was an exploit found last year that allowed rooting for one of the Qualcomm variants but can't remember which, and newer firmware may have since blocked the exploit.

Is it worth trying to install firmware (official) for the g9600 phone (China Snapdragon)? And from there if that was successful, would I be able to use CROM to OEM unlock?

nope. it will very likely fail at the Odin flash process. you can if you want to, but im betting it will fail. Hell, i even had to use a modded Odsin just to flash another carriers firmware on mine, but it worked like a charm. That being said, it was all within the same basic model info, what youre proposing isnt

I'll try the modded Odin, if its a fail, I'll probably give up

I used this one for my XT1952-4...
The build is for XT1952-2 (posted by αℓ૯×12345) but I went ahead and tried it. So far (couple days now) it is working pretty well. I've connected it to my WiFi and I've been surfing the internet. Also, Google Play Store works.
Hope this is helpful:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-play/development/gsi-lineageos-17-1-modified-t4075035
I followed the directions in that thread; I already had the bootloader unlocked (obviously, right?) I also had TWRP installed using the method in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-play/how-to/how-to-successfully-install-twrp-g7-play-t3979701
Read down the thread a little bit. In the directions, Linuxassassin leaves out what turned out to be an important step for me, which is after I fastbooted the TWRP image linked to in that thread, I needed to select Wipe from the TWRP menu and then Format Data. I needed to do that to remove the encryption from the file system so that it was usable for the rest of the steps for installing TWRP. As already stated, it is working pretty well at the moment.

Sorry folks. New here; don't know how to edit my posts ...Edit: Now there's an edit button... huh. OK.
Ran into a little problem if you are rebooting from TWRP when the above stuff has been done.
When rebooting from TWRP using the TWRP image in the above thread, and it gives you the options to "Prompt to install TWRP app if not installed" and "Install as system app" be sure NOT to install them. Press the button that says "Do Not Install." If you do install them, it causes the boot to hang up on the "android" screen. I fixed the problem by going back into TWRP, wiping the system partition, and reinstalling the custom ROM image.
Anyway, hope this helps someone.

I've been sick so I'm a little behind. I'll include the phh su for testing purposes until we can get magisk working. Expect an update on the ROM's soon. I'm building for 4 different models so it's taking me longer than i anticipated.

Confused Noob In Search Of Expert Charity Case

Hey All I've got an interesting one that I would love some feedback/help on...
When I got the phone it showed the following within Android...
Model: SM-G960F
Baseband version - G960FXXU2BRK2
Build # R16NW.G960FXXU2BRK2
AP, CP, CSC = G960FXXU2BRK2
Android 8.0.0 (Oreo)
However, the box showed that it should have been...
Model: SM-G960U
SW-Version G960USQS2ARF4
Phone previously worked on Verizon (even though the SW-Version from research shows T-Mobile or US Cellular?)
I wasn't sure what to believe about this device so I downloaded the PhoneInfo app and it showed the Origin CSC as DCM (aka Japan) and the Snapdragon processer. Upon further investigation I got the wild idea that the device was actually the SC-02K (Galaxy S9). So I downloaded the latest Android 10 source code for that from Frija and used Odin to install it. Upgrade went smoothly! But now I show the following...
Model: SC-02K
Baseban version - SC02KOMU1CTG1
Build # QP1A.190711.020.SC02KOMU1CTG1
SW-Version SAOMC_SC-02K_DCM_DCM_QQ_0008 DCM/DCM/KDI
Android 10 (Q) June 1, 2020 Security Patch
So my real questions are as follows for starters...
What device is this?
How do I get it back to normal?
Is there a way to change the CSC of the device or is that model/CSC firmware specific?
Does that require root?
Can I put a custom GSI on it? (ideally phusson with Android 11)
Goal is to have it running Android 11 to test the new certificate issues/features of Android 11 on WiFi before mass device roll out of Android 11

They use Z3X box of something similar to it for able to force it.
