Hey guys. Got my ATT fold today and would like to flash the 'unlocked' firmware onto it. I've downloaded the newest ODIN file and the U1 file for firmware. I have my phone in download mode and connected to the PC.
I can launch ODIN and load the files but when I attempt to run the program I get a error message...FAIL SHA256 Is Invalid. If I hit start again I get...Complete Write Operation Failed.
Any help? Thanks.

Are you trying to flash "U1"-firmware to an "U"-device?
THAT's the problem: NOT possible!
actually U1 to U is possible using patched Odin. I just did the conversion using an Odin version that I used for a Note 9 that I had. i can't remember where I got it from but here's a thread that has the same version (per the file name) that I used: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/patched-odin-3-13-1-t3762572
Hello,
Where can I download the firmware?
Edut: found it in another section. Thanks anyways.
Hi
I've problem with my sm-g960f. I live in UK, but my phone was bought in Switzerland and because of that I am not receiving any system updates. Samsung support told me to go to Switzerland to check if I'll receive update there, but it is not an option. I've got stuck at android 8.0. Is there any chance that I update it manually to newest one? If it is, please help me with it. Thanks!
I've never did anything with phones soft before, sorry if it is stupid question.
When I was like you I did a lot of research for what i needed to flash the software i wanted and what to do if any thing goes wrong.
First you need to unlock your bootloader and this can take 7 days to confirm and also wipes your data. Once unlocked you need to flash twrp through Odin on your pc also you will need a file to flash to stop a boot loop after flashing twrp. Then you need to download the latest firmware from Sam mobile, this can take hours on the free account. Then use Odin again to flash the firmware android 10. Then you will be updated

You don't need to flash TWRP, for this to work. You can do it normally using stock recovery.
Then you need to download the latest firmware from Sam mobile, this can take hours on the free account. Then use Odin again to flash the firmware android 10. Then you will be updated

Start from this step. I highly recommend to download original firmware using the Frija tool (search here in XDA) because there you don't have any limiting download speed. Once downloaded, you can now just go to stock recovery, wipe data, cache and system, and reboot to download mode and flash the downloaded firmware from frija tool.

Hello. I have managed to Root My Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 Model SM-T875 with KNOX value 0x1 and no custom recovery has been installed. I am linking an image from Root Checker
bit.ly/3kOE6NW
Sorry for bitly link guys, this is my first post so not allowed to post url, pls understand
Only for SM-T875
If you have any other models, let me know, I will patch their boot.tar and provide link for the same
Steps for root :
Download and install the latest version of Magisk Manager
Make sure you have an unlocked boot loader
On your PC, download Odin and put your S7 into download mode
Flash the tar file listed here
I am linking the exact boot.tar image I used
bit.ly/3j4mYDw
Sorry for bitly link guys, this is my first post so not allowed to post url, pls understand
In Odin, select the AP option, make sure ur tab is connected in COM1 and then select the boot.tar file. Once flashed, you have to restart your device.
NOTE
Once this boot.img file is flashed you will get this an error saying your device is not on official firmware and you will have to hard reset your device, go ahead and hard reset your device, you might think its in bootloop but it is not. Once hard reset is done, your device will boot twice, make sure to press the power button each time to skip the unlocked bootloader warning. Once done, set up your tab as new one. Now Magisk Manager will not be installed on your device. For root , go ahead and install Magisk Manager again and this time Magisk will be installed in your device and your Knox value will be 0x1 and warranty will be void and device will be rooted
If any questions, please feel free to ask
Hope this helped you
Did someone confirmed?*I wait to got the root before to buy this model specifically

If this img file is not flashing, make sure to tar it using 7-zip and then flash from ODIN.
This is the boot.img from the latest version of Android Q (release Sep 1) so make sure you're on the same version before flashing this.
Let me know if this worked or if you need the boot file for any other version
also, sry for bitly link, am not trying to profit out of this, once my 10 posts are complete, i'll post direct download links.
Thx for understanding

Unfortunately no.
I have T875 TabS7 brand new I have Build number
QP1A.190711.020.T875XXU1ATI4 and device says upd are available ATJ4 Something. with october patch. The boot image you have linked is of which firmware ?. Should I update and then root.
EDIT:
Anyways i followed this guide by Dr ketan for rooting which i used for my Note 20 Ultra and it didnt work with patching AP file method.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-20-ultra/how-to/guide-how-to-root-n20-ultra-t4147023
So i downloaded the latest firmware which was ATJ4 my CSC version was CAC so i downloaded same firmware from SAMFW(super website with downloads resumable via google drive option.
1. I extracted boot.img.lz4 from AP file of stock firmware downloaded and made a TAR file of it with 7Zip
2. Put it in phone and used magisk manager on tab to patch this file
3. Copy back to PC and flash via odin 3.14.3 in AP tab and uncheck auto reboot in ODIN
4. Booted straight into stock recovery and wiped/factory reset
5. Now i have root on Tab S7 T785.
Here is a link to boot file patched for TAB S7 N985 LTE Latest ATJ4 Firmware .

Yeah it might be.
I have gotten a TWRP up and running on my Galaxy Tab S7 but it's not functioning properly, I'll post the stable version here in case I figure out one haha.
I have the Tab S6 and I love it. I am thinking to buy the Tab S7+. I was very quick to root the Tab S6 and did not take much notice of the Knox trip. Is there any sell value if the tablet cannot have certain apps working such as secure folder? I understand even if you unroot and relock the bootloader then knox is still going to be changed to 0x1
My Tablet still seems to be 0x0 though.

Any luck on this? I also was dumb enough to get this T878U from ATT. I realize I have a signed locked bootloader. Is there any hope for us? I'm fairly technical and can follow directions
I'm in the same boat. Att locked out usb and wifi tethering. A rooted device would be very helpful.
Did you have any luck with magisk hide(safetynet)? I'm still waiting for fingerprint for magisk-hide-props-config.
Is this possible for the SM-T978U?

Hi all using S20,
Samsung have released Android 11 firmware for the S20 series recently.
So has anyone of you here already installed this firmware and got it rooted successfully (with Magisk)?
I've already had the firmware at hand but not installed it on my S20 (SM-G9810, BRI), since I dare not get the firmware rooted.
Thank you guys in advance!

Had 0 issues. Also have twrp.
Only had a problem hiding magisk but that was probably my fault.
Flash twrp with Odin, install magisk through twrp.
Yep, easily. Follow the guides and read and you should be victorious
Hello everyone. I'm glad i found this topic which is about what I'm exactly trying to solve now. Ive been using Android 10 which was rooted using Magisk. I got a Samsung S20+ (SM-G986B). I was using a method where i had to extract the Android 10's boot image file which i had to patch with Magisk app and then flash it using Odin. Which finally rooted the Android 10. Now i updated my android to the latest 11 build country code (PHN) Netherlands. The same method caused my phone to get stuck at bootloop. The same happens when i just flash Magisk using TWRP right away. My bootloader is unlocked so i'm not sure what is causing the bootloop. Could the problem be that im using the (PHN) firm?. Can you guys maybe share in which country model firm you've successfully be able to flash Magisk right away? Thanks in advance. I'm using many apps which requires root so i need to get the android 11 rooted asap. Or i will have to roll back to Android 10. Thanks in advance for any help

On android 11 you need to copy firmware's AP file to the phone, patch it with latest magisk (canary, in my case), and flash it with Odin (AP slot) instead of original AP file, and you're done.
In case if you prefer to work with a small file on the phone, extract boot.img.lz4 and vbmeta.img.lz4 from AP, pack both extracted files as a single tar file (7zip > tar) - boot_vbmeta.tar - and flash it in the USERDATA slot (remember to flash original AP file in the AP slot).

You have to flash a vbmeta disabled file in the user data section of Odin. You'll find the vbmeta file in the rooting thread on XDA
I patched the whole AP .tar.md5 file using Magisk Manager and it worked!. I'm really thankful to you guys. I do want to note that i could not patch the AP file of the Android 11 firmware version i had. İt ended up giving me a error. What i did is downloading a more recent Android 11 firmware for SM-G986B (PHN). And Magisk thankfully recognized it and i could patch the AP .md5 file and flashed lt alongside with other original components using odin and it worked. Anyways thank you very much for the great help. Now i can continue from where i left off. XDA didn't disappoint me again. Much appreciated

This is exactly how I update my S20+ on every new security patch firmware (monthly update) without losing data.
Must Have An Unlocked Bootloader To Do This!
This An odin tar file I have created to flash along with stock odin firmware to automatically install TWRP recovery along with Disable VBMETA image. The tar file will also automatically install magisk root along with remove force encryption and patch bluetooth library file. It will also patch safetynet. No flashing of zips is required

Unless Using Bit Safe Firmware That Is Patched
Downloads
SM-G975U/U1/W- Model
USERDATA_AIO_G975_CANARY_FORCE_WIPE_2022_01_28.tar.md5 --Use on android 11 or 12
This will force a wipe of data no mater what.
Full Odin 4.0 Android 12 Bit4 Safe Firmware
G975USQU6HULD_BIT4_SAFE.7z
This are odin files and will safely update all image files too bit 6 and keep bit 4 bootloaders. Unfortunately this will wipe data this is beyond my control as it seems to be a side affect of mixing firmware it causes data not to mount and therefore my AIO will format it. This is full firmware with USERDATA_AIO. This will put you on U firmware. Before flashing I recommend removing your google account and make sure in download mode you are not frp locked
If above USERDATA_AIO_G975_FORCE_WIPE_08_35_21.tar.md5 is newer than the one in this zip use the newer one from above

I update the tar file so now only one is needed for android 10 or 11 and I and I changed the safenet fix to the latest one that patches your own keystore file thanks @afaneh92 for the module and have it install as a magisk module so it doesnt affect system files that way if a bettery way comes out you can simply update the module and not have too worry about replacing system files. If you have used my old tar to root your phone I suggest reflashing stock firmware in odin along with my new tar file and this will remove the safetynet files from system and too the module
it's not working in g975f right ?
Has anyone confirmed this is working correctly other than the noted things that don't?
Fixed issues where if bluetooth or keystore files are already patched in system by other means then my installer will just skip them instead of failing during flash

Am i out of luck if i am on 9.0 still? Kinda rare to be on Bin 1 still and i wanna keep it that way.
Which .img @AndroidFileHost may be flashed 4 the Pie ROM?
I have One UI 3.0 with bl 4 (5th character from the right is a 4 in build number). which file do i flash? force_wipe_no_bl? or force_wipe_v1?
Hello.
I tried the procedure on an locked SM-G975U device, which failed in Odin.
The problem is that the phone now keeps booting in DL mode with "An arror has occured while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software".
I tried to use Smart Switch, downloaded from the samsung site (v4.2), but the said recovery procedure does not see my device...
After a while playing with boot loader key combination, it eventually rebooted OK, and after another while, I can enter again in the usual download menu.
Can the price be lower if the number of mobile phones is more？
