HI,
I obtained a nokia 6.1 recently.
I had the bootloader unlocked.
I then went to flash the latest ( official) lineage 17
I did all the usual stuff ( i am not a stranger to installing custom roms ), and then tried to temporarily boot into twrp, in order to flash the lineage zip.
I was using the twrp as recommended on lineage site for this device ( nokia 6.1 TA 1050 )
For some reason, after using fastboot boot twrp.img, ( I renamed the image) the phone just booted back to android one screen.?
I could use power/vol up, to get out and back to existing installation, but nothing else.
I then tried temporarily booting the lineage recovery. ( according to the lineage installation instructions)
This involves using a combination of ''fastboot flash boot'' and hardware keys to get there
This worked fine - and I was able to sideolad the lineage zip.
Problem is, if I want to flash images , and do other stuff the lineage recovery cant, i need twrp ( even temporarily).
After installing lineage 17, I tried again to get into twrp, with the same (non) results.
I was wonderinfg if I was getting confused about slots.
I believed that booting twrp temporarily would boot to the right slot? - maybe not.
I then decided to do fastboot flash boot_a, ( etc, ) and then fastboot flash boot_b, ( etc ) to make sure it would boot off either slot. With hindsight, this was dumb
That got me twrp., but lost me the ability to boot into the lineage installation.
After a bit of a panic, I managed to get back to my lineage install.
I have tried since to temporarily boot twrp ( not to both slots ), and am still getting the same results- it boots to the android one screen, and just sits there.
But - if I try to get to recovery using the hardware buttons, I can get to Lineage recovery - which I find strange, because I thought official lineage packages did not install their recovery by default?
Makes me wonder when I thought I had booted lineage recovery temporarily, that maybe I hadn't, and I just booted into a pre installed recovery using the hardware method.
I am probably doing something stupid ( quite common for me ), can anyone enlighten me ?
Many Thanks
pootler

Yes - it appears that if you cannot boot into twrp temporarily , then this worked for me!
--at your own risk---
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img
This will FAIL - but ignore and then right after,
fastboot boot <filename> .img
Voila - boots into TWRP temporarily.
Cheers

So successfully you have rooted your device and you just messed up the system partition by tweaking some of the build props lines and all. Now you are stuck in the boot logo that is nothing but boot loop so as far there is no TWRP recovery for this device. So the only solution you have got is to totally re flash the ROM into the partition. Wait a minute we've got a new trick to restore the corrupted system partition.
without having to flash the whole firmware you can just follow this tutorial and fix your brick Samsung F62 device.
❄Requirements
1. Windows computer or any Odin supported device for flashing
2. Latest Samsung Odin
3. Extracted system image of Samsung F62 (super.img.tar you can get it from this thread)
4. Hell lot of patience to get back your device
Downloads(Mediafire)ODIN FOR F62/M62
Rose in Samsung Galaxy F62 / M62 | OFFICIAL
t.me
super.img.tar
Procedure Booting the device into download mode
As your device is in a boot loop condition or stuck it logo you just need to hold the volume down and power button until the screen goes off then immediately you should connect the cable to the PC and device then immediately press volume up and down so that you will boot into download mode.
If you are confused then just follow this video tutorial. After booting your device into download mode just press volume up button to continue.
Boot into download mode tutorial
ODIN & flashing system without losing data
After setting up the Odin in your computer just launch the Odin and ensured that device is connected and displayed in the Odin.
now just place the downloaded super.img.tar ( download from this thread) of Samsung F62 device in the Odin AP column.
now after placing the super.img.tar on AP column of the Odin, now press the start button to start the flashing process.
now just wait until the flashing is done. don't disturb the device or cable.
you can see the flashing process in the Odin.
your device will be automatically restarted after flashing.
repeat this process whenever your device gets bricked.
This is the only method to restore the system without losing of personal data as we don't have TWRP recovery this is the only way to restore the system without losing data.
i hope this helped you out guys
now you can safely tweak your system partition.
End linesi'm new to this thread writing.
This is my first biggest thread on my favorite device
my mom just gifted me this flagship device And I just love to tweak this device and I also love to help others from getting out of tough situations
The super.img is extracted from the official firmware and converted to super.img.tar by me and i personally tested this on my device so you can follow this method safely.
This tutorial is done by me & didn't copy it from anyone.
You can also just extract the super.img from the firmware and convert the image to .tar using this 7 zip software in windows 10.
I hope this tutorial helped you out and feel free to reply to this thread.
Just thank me and that will be the biggest appreciation for me
@rc chanu I've changed the prefix of your thread from "Development" to "How To Guide" as the thread didn't qualify for the first one. Please review the sticked guidance prior to your next posting and don't change the prefix back. Thanks for your cooperation.

Guys, I need a light, I went to block the bootloader of my cell phone (Realme 6 Pro - RMX2063) and when it turned on the message "the current image(boot/recovery) has been destroyed and cannot boot", and I can't more enter fastboot . What I got was to enter the download mode and it was recognized as a qualcomm device in the windows device manager and in the Qfil program, but I don't have the files to flash by this method, has anyone done it or has another solution ? Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me, and sorry for typos, I'm using the translator.

Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this recovery before flashing it!
YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Thanks for the recovery, it is working quite well for me!
Decryption doesn't seem to be supported though, so it is not possible to write backups to internal storage if encrypted.
And when trying to write to external storage, I get an error (255), after the backup folder has been created.

yes
version 3.7.0_11.0 and this is the only version that works with my samsung on android 13
but to flash the phone must be rooted
to run twrp your phone must be connected to the computer and you must hold the volume up + power button
As a custom rom, I recommend lineageOS 20
ye its only work with flashed dm verity + magisk, but not sure with the magisk one.
