Hello there,
I currently own a Galaxy A70 2019 with android 10 and i want to root it.
The thing is, i have a macbook and i tried already through parallels but the virtual machine wouldnt recognize my phone even though its recognized on the macbook (i have installed android transfer).
The tricky part is, I also tried with the macos adb and fastboot from homebrew, but whenever i put the phone in download mode, the phone becomes unrecognizable for the fastboot devices command.
i tried restarting both the phone and the laptop, tried different adb installing methods, resetting the phone, switching debugging on and off, revoking debugging but with no luck.
hope someone can help me.
Cheers
Hello,
You need to unlock the bootloader, theres some guide on yt
I also use samsung A70, ( and its rooted ). First, download magisk, ( search it on google, u can't find it on play store ). Download odin, and samsung a70 firmware, last time, its hard for me to search the firmware, so heres the link https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-a70/firmware/SM-A705F/XID/download/A705FXXS5DUD1/1537929/
Then open it, and flash the firmware using magisk. And use the odin to flash the firmware from magisk, to your phone ( you only need the "AP" file )

ah, and also, you need to backup your data first, and its kinda short, so you need to use other guides. This is only the overall.

Uninstall the drivers again, then Try using USBDeview and delete all the devices related to android and samsung... this will remove the possibility of any device driver not being reinstalled properly by windows...
USBDeview 32-bit
USBDeview 64-bit
After this restart the pc and try installing drivers and connect the phone to see if it works...
U can try reinstalling samsung kies.

Windows 8.1 update 1 also can't flash anything to my phone because of drivers. I had tried every driver mtp, Sammy etc.
Here are the latest Sammy if you want to try.

What's the issue with your current rom? If it's working fine don't play with it, if it's not then maybe we can fix the issue.
im using windows 8.1. working & able to flash 4.4.2 with Odin 3.0.9
try install PdaNet & KIES 3
I tried all things you wrote but without any success. At least I did a new installstion of windows 8.1 but also without success. I think if its ossible for me to come into recovery mode I can Flash cwm Version of rom from my sd Card. It seems the onlyest Way to Repair my smarty.
Any tricks to get recovery mode.

Well, what's actually wrong with it, other than Win 8.1.1 not seeing it? You haven't told anyone what problems you're having other than that. It could be just something simple that someone here can help you with; that doesn't mean you have to reflash it...
Bricked - yes or no? - briefing my problem
Briefing my problem for better understanding my problem:
1. i wanted to do clean installation of sammobile rom 4.4.2 by preparing my n7100 before flashing new costum rom by deleting previous rom via a script.
2. after doing this my smartphone isn't recognized by windows 8.1 Update 1 - 64 bit
3. I tried also windows 8.1, 8 and 7 without any success.
4. i'm not be able to flash new custom rom via odin
5. on sd-card i had a cwm of rom and a backup of previous rom version, too
6. i tried to get into recovery mode by pushing sound+, on-switch and home by pushing at the same time
7. i got always immediately into download mode or in bootloop since boot sound starts (it's difficult to reconstruct the exactly way, but i had the problem not to go into recovery mode mot time before. therefore i do it always by "rom manager" appfrom chainfire).
8. i'm not be able to flash new custom rom via recovery mode
9. then i tried all tricks by searching the prroblem by google but all methods didn' work
10.. i'm be able to load my smartphone and the led lights, too.
this is why i think about my n7100 is bricked.
please, please help me!
thanks a lot
So you're bootlooping?
Your best bet is to try to access it from an older version of Windows. Probably you have a bad driver somewhere and it's causing conflicts. I have similar issues from W8, but it's fine on older OS's.
If an older version of Windows can access the device, then you should be able to reflash it. I suggest trying to drop Dr Ketan a PM, he's very knowledgeable and helpful.
see item 3, please.
im on windows 8.1
just download the lastest Samsung Kies (Samsung Kies 3) and install it.
try this

I think you need to root it first. Do a search for "CF auto-root" and find the correct one for your model number. You'll need to use Odin rather than ADB to flash the CF Auto-Root file. Once it is rooted, you can flash TWRP with Odin also. There are plenty of tutorials on the web and here at XDA on how to do this. Once TWRP is installed, you can use it to flash the ROM you want (I would suggest LineageOS 14.1).
Link below is a tutorial on rooting.

Did you enable USB debugging in the developer options settings on the Tab S? If you did not, that's your problem. If you did, check that the PC detects your device before you start Odin. If it does, unplug the device, start Odin, and plug it back in. If it still doesn't detect it, try re-installing the drivers.

Hi! I hope some one knows how to restore apk on a Galaxy S9 plus
I was trying to get rid of Bixby and erase some apks using adb app control, I have a backup of the apks in the computer, the problem right now it's that the phone has many photos and most of them are important , I would like to know if there is a way to avoid wipe data/ factory reset, via adb or Odin.
I'm stuck on loop after the operator logo.
It doesn't boot in safe mode.
I already have android 10 ROM but I'm afraid that if I flash it with Odin , it will wipe the user data, if there is way to Just update, or restore this files please let me know.
Thank you very much for you help.

Hi! I have tried several times, and I get failure to start, the phone is detected but the flash doesn't initiate, sometimes I get this screen, sometimes it says fail .
I have installed Samsung USB drivers, from the
Samsung Android USB Driver | Samsung Developers
You need the driver only if you are developing on Windows and want to connect a Samsung Android device to your development environment over USB.
developer.samsung.com
And Odin from here
Patched Odin 3.13.1
For those looking for a modified, modded, or patched odin that is a newer build than all the fake and renamed prince comsy 3.12.3 versions floating around. I patch recent Odin versions to offer similar functionality to the princecomsy; in that...
forum.xda-developers.com
I used the original Samsung USB cable and tried the 3 USB ports in the laptop
What else can be happening?
Thank you very much!

did you try booting into the download mode twice?
Once and then again and then start the odin.
I had to do that.
I had to flash the official firmware myself because my phone keeps crashing on the homescreen.
Didnt solve it but I did flash it properly.

go to the recovery.
connect to the PC.
open odin.
click on "reboot to bootloader"
It should go to to download mode.
what does your download mode screen say?
When I was doing this process I tried reflashing the latest rom but that didn't solve my boot loop issue.
So I flashed an older version of the rom.
Make sure the version you download is compatible with your phone.
You have G9650ZHU9FUG2 so only roms with 9 will work.
I flashed that old version and it didn't work, phone still stuck.
Then I flashed the latest one again and then my phone worked.
I used odin from the link you posted.
Odin3 v3.13.1
actually what i would suggest is downloading/re-downloading samsung usb drivers. otherwise most phones won't respond to odin even in download mode without it

Hi! Today I have successfully flashed the exact firmware that the phone had ( there is no newer) using a different laptop (it's true if the problem persist with Odin, use another laptop)
I got success message, at the very first time, and when the phone reboot, nothing , stuck as it was before, so I erased cache partition and no luck, still stuck on reboot, I have also tried repair apps , and reboot sistem now, what else should I do?
Thank you very much!
Hi! I want the community to know that using the APK adb app for Samsung it's a bad idea, after successfuly flashing the firmware and performing a factory reset several times the phone remain stucked, I downloaded about 10 different firmwares and flash them all times without an error, and the phone was bricked and stuck in boot. So I took it to the official service and nothing, still the same, then I found an external service that flash the device with a little box that they said they paid in advance for credits for using that box, it took them one full week to revive the phone, also they had to flash it several times. In conclusion, if you buy Samsung, stick with the garbage apps the throw, if you mess with the system in some way as the official technician said, the phone will be nearly unrecoverable for privacy benefits for the user. Thank you very much for the help to the community!
Hello everyone, so as the title suggests I have an a520f device that suddenly got frp locked after a reboot, and I'm guessing it was because I disabled and re-enabled developer options and forgot to turn on OEM unlocking again. anyway the thing is I tried using Tenorshare 4ukey but it didn't detect my device and same thing with Odin when I tried to flash a stock rom. I tried every possible fix (using a different cable a different usb port a dfferent pc etcc..) and none of them worked until I decided to take the phone to a local workshop and they told me that the data transfer port was broken and honestly they asked for more than what the whole device is worth to replace it. So I was wondering if there is a way to install a stock rom without a pc or/and rooting (directly from an sd card using recovery mode maybe)? any help would be greatly appreciated! and sorry about the long read I just tried to include any detail that might be helpful.

unfortunately not, Is there a way to flash it without Magisk or PC?
In know a rooter app "kingroot" [ I don't recommend for security reasons], which could be root your phone online!
If you can get root access!
you can use twrp flasher apps to flash your recovery!
Can't you just bypass frp?
I need to install Lineage OS on this phone.
After multiple tries several months apart, I am still not in success.
Followed all internet tutorials and sites.
I don't want to install any G apps or any special root-things like magdisk..
I only want pure Lineage OS without any extra applications.
Way I tried and probably ended up like before:
Get newest official samsung ROM installed, update, enable usb debigging and oem, go download mode and go factory reset, get back in, sign in to wifi again, again enable develop. settings and usb debugging, go into download mode, take odin and install through the AP option the TWRP now that the phone is in download mode a 3rd time, supposed to be possible now with OEM unlock.
Most of the names on the way I don't understand, just follow tutorials.
I need to get to TWRP to then finally, as used to always, install Lineage from zip.
But I never get rebooted into TWRP recovery, just forver the samsung one, even when firmware is no longer there - after flashing in ap option the twrp tar again it never boots into TWRP afterwards.
Is there something else i must do? is not getting into oem unlock and flashing TWRP enough to get there?
And after, will the zip install finaly get me to have lineage installed?
Did you try the official guide?
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/beyond0lte/
I hope I picked the right phones, otherwise check devices overview.
Alternatively, perhaps this helps:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-a-graphical-installer-for-lineageos.4509995/
PS: Usually LOS doesn't do TWRP anymore but comes with its own recovery (a/b)
Why they don't do TWRP now?
I saw TWRP tuorial fot s10 on tutorials and it worked
Do I have to give up on TWRP way and od it with the adb commands from PC

Yes, it's still there but perhaps you post a link to your guide (or ask there). To me it seems you had TWRP just in your RAM but not your phone?
As for me, I finally gave up on TWRP and use the "crappy" LOS recovery Have way more important things to waste my time on...
PS: Sorry to bring such "bad" news, wasn't too happy with that change myself
Great, I finaly made it work.
I followed the site with turotial on installation and did not try TWRP
First I had to install samsung ROM again
It turned out to still stay unlocked so went straight to download mode and this time flashed Lineage recovery sucesfuly with heimdall
Then it booted up and a half samsung sreen made it seem like there is trouble
but Lineage recovery launched
The adb load from PC did not work so i chose to instal zip from SD even there
Now Lineage is installed
Still don't know how much is randomness, luck and so on
But it's done and hopefuly repeatable
