Hey Sam do you have an email? I've rooted a lot of phones but this Samsung Galaxy sm-j337p. I need to root without unlocking bootloader. I know its possible but I'm not exactly sure which one or way is the guarantee. I cant back up what all I need either is why theres an issue and all this stuff I need for my divorce as well as stuff that I need to recover with root by Tuesday. Let me know mate thanks.
Man look, i did everything until i got to CMD FASTBOOT my device wont obey any command and when I try to use hard reset it simply says, NO COMMAND PLEASE HELP!!!!!
@@jemuelsamuel4020 That's so misleading. S8 onwards have E-fuses in the main board that blow permanently on flashing custom software. This is anything not signed by Samsung, ie superuser, custom rom, etc. This fuse is checked by Knox and as such becomes completely disabled if the fuse is tripped. This is on stock software. Even if it's there, it won't work. If you flash custom rom etc the software will be gone entirely. Knox is a combination of hardware security, low level software and some user apps all tied together.
An extra (probably unnecessary but still worth doing) tip, if you're going to flash your phone or work with ADB, I suggest using an extra cable that's only meant for flashing that way it's always ready to go and reliable. I found that I rarely have success with even having my phone show up in ADB if I use a cable that I also use to charge with. Nothing technical about it, just the fact that the more a cable is worn, the less reliable it will be for data transfer.
I know I'm late but this is a really good point. I had some difficulties interfacing with my Nexus 7 because all of my micro USB cables were so worn out. By contrast, it was extremely easy on my Poco X3 Pro because I had a barely used cable lying around that was perfect for the job.
I was just exploring on how to root the phone I recently bought and just watched the how to root oneplus 8 video yesterday by Sam. And here it is. The complete guide for all of us. Thanks a lot🙏🏼
Thank you for the non-bs video. You should make a vid about the dangers of rooting. There is a lot of “how to root” spam on the yt and it’s pretty obvious after reading comments a lot of people don’t understand the potential dangers of blindly following root instructions.
and facing same problem again after flash magisk i download magisk mudele like screen cam' s module i open my magisk app and try to flash that module it says reboot device and after tahat i stuck on bootloader
Dude just jail brake my iPhone but I’m totally into this would love to see more cool stuff on booted ur phone like tweaks always like learnings new thing dope videos man
What a nice video! Thanks a lot for this which is very helpful for every newbie like me. Getting this video I am benefited. And its pleasure to visit this www.reibootdownload.com link and find useful tools for android users
Hey Sam, first and foremost thanks for video as it's so awesome to finally be able to listen to an another Australian explain these topics. I wanted to ask if you could do a video covering how to install a GSI on a device as I have had trouble finding one that explains what to do clear enough.
@@pexeixv I mean I just want to delete some bloatware apps that are useless and I tries magisk manager once but u want able to do it coz I never rooted any phone so i ended up deleting that app
I'd just like to add that if you have a Chromebook with developer mode enabled, platform tools are built right in to the Chrome OS shell. You can access it by pressing CTRL+ALT+T then typing "shell" into the terminal. From here, you can use ADB and Fastboot commands to interface with your Android device. You might have to give it SuperUser permissions or add "sudo" at the beginning of some commands, but it's otherwise flawless. I use a Google Pixelbook as my main computer, so this makes tinkering with my Android devices ridiculously easy. No need to download anything in order to make it work.
@@theajayyy well there are pretty much other custom recoveries as well like orange fox, sharp recovery that could be used instead of twrp in android 10 given that they are available for your phone.
@@GLORIBLESS The phone becomes utterly free from its developers. It allows you to wholly change your phone's aesthetic (bootloader animation, accent color, font, etc), it is feasible to be fully anonymous while browsing or casually using your phone, root access also permits you to block EVERY advertisement (literally), You might even download several outcasted apps. Summarizing: your phone will truly be yours, everything under your absolute domine and control. However, with such power, a few new responsibilities arises...
That's actually very simple!!? Thank you for the tutorial!! Also once you have the patched img file you can flash it from the phone itself using custom recovery like TWRP there you get option to flash image then select boot
you need your brand/manufacturer serial number just search up like if your using samsung tablet galaxy ro something then search it up or just copy your serial number that when you put on command prompt adb devices sadly for me it rooting my phone dosent work cuz mah phone is huawei
Lol I just spent like hours trying to find a way to work this but I honestly can't I followed every step I researched Got the right information But still no dice Idk maybe the phone I want to root just can't and I just wasted my time But I really didn't know what I was doing I just followed steps and I managed to unlock the bootloader but idk how to root it ( or is it already rooted? ) Doesn't seem to work through the computer I was using and phone methods just didn't work. So I think I'm gonna quit for now Maybe I'll get someone to teach me more about, unlocking,code cracking, and successful rebooting and rooting later But I'm just done now My brain hurts I've been reading, copying, and watching videos of this material all day and I'm really tired xD I just wanted to get some cheats for a videogame and then I got sent into this wild goose chase about roots... Which wasn't bad it was interesting but I think I just overworked myself to the point I no longer want to know about any of this for the rest of the day lol. Anyway this vid actually helped me a lot It got me pretty far, the rest was just gibberish to me and I couldn't go further cuz my brain got really tired, made it harder to think anything. Anyway if someone can simplify the process a little bit about what I can do now that the bootloader is unlocked I will happily read and give your suggestions a try... If it's within my reach I mean.
oh I'm sorry to interrupt I really like your setup and stuff but you're really incorrect about one thing you can root your phone without a computer all you do is download the original file the original firmware for whatever device and carrier that you have or unlocks is a backup as well as you download the rooted firmware and then you simply install the rooted firmware from your SD card using the one-click route method I've done it several times without a computer on all the Galaxy notes in the past one two and three I've done it Etc and that your phone if you do mess it up there's a difference nine times out of 10 if you've rude or flashed the wrong ROM it'll just be soft brick meaning when you plug it in the light still comes on as long as you do that you can simply upload the original firmware to from a computer you would have to do that or you can use external drive
4:32 I appreciate that you are not giving an extensive list of possible commands, but neither of those commands worked in my case. I'm trying to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ but I can't find anywhere on the internet with information about what command to type here. The command line just says "" and does not allow me to continue typing commands. Does anyone know what command I should be using for a Samsung phone?
OTA updates are released in waves... Sometimes it may happen that on manufacturer site there is newer firmware version then that one actually installed... So flashing patched boot.img from newer version to phone may end up with bootloop.. So always check if your phone running the latest version (if you download the latest version). Sometimes you may even get OTA update that is not present on manufacturers website yet so pay attention to that.
Hi, I want to render 1080p video as 1440p at 2.35 1 aspect ratio (premiere pro), did you know the right resolution to make the 1440p appear on youtube because I want to get VP09 Codecs on youtube.
I couldn't get through unlocking bootloader. when I type in the command it just says waiting for devices. my phone didn't show bootloader, it just showed 'downloading...'
I find it interesting that you always like to use Magisk to patch the stock boot image instead of flashing a new recovery like TWRP to flash the entire Magisk ZIP itself
By using MAGISK ONLY method, it will save you a lot of times when you need to re-root again the same device. Situation like you receive a system update and installed the update. Root is gone. All you need to do is download the ROM you just updated and patch the boot.img file to root the device again. TWRP is also good in terms of you are interested in trying different kinds of ROM which I'm not a big fan. I just need my device root and able to use TASKER.
hi i was following your video up till around 4:30 but when i typed in fastboot oem unlock (for my oneplus 8) it would get stuck on waiting for device and would not show the conformation message i would appreciate the help
My phone is the Galaxy A13 and in the developer options I don't have the option to turn on OEM unlocking and I couldn't do anything to get it to show up and one of the things it said I could do was remove my SIM card but my dad probably wouldn't want me to do that so I cant, so what can I do?
Okay just trying to be a lil helpful since I ran into this problem. If you try and type the file "cd platform tools" and get and an error saying s "the system cannot find the path specific". Put the WHOLE name in you can usually drag the file into the command prompt and it gives it to you. It should say CD C:\user\your name on computer \desktop\platform-tools_r30.0.5-your computer. Hope this was helpful!!!!
For the life of me I can not find a way to unlock my bootloader. For SM-A125U (Samsung Galaxy A12). I have put it in fast boot and tried the commands for that. I'm at a loss.
Thank you for the upload, I got close to the end but I don't have a boot image file and I can't find one for my Alcatel V1 5007u, do you know where I can find one?
If some one have the problem of bootloop can solve using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" where boot.img is the original firmware of your phone. You can find the original firmware on the official site of your phone.
I tried this with a Pixel 3a, and now it's stuck in fastboot on the last step, where you load the Magisk file. It doesn't show up on my PC when I do './adb devices'. Help?
im almost done rooting my phone I am trying to find the A52 factory image file, iso what ever the hell and I cant find it, can some one help me find samsungs iso's?
i need help, i cant find both the file thing and the command to unlock bootloader, im now stuck in the bootloader menu and i cant unlock it, i have a samsung galaxy a6 and i cant find the file image thing and the command.
Did you try supersu installing with twrp and got a boot image is patched error? If yes, delete your OS and install the stock rom: get it for your device version from google and install supersu on the new rom. Now i have root
Hi, I really like this kind of videos, good work! It's a long time ago I rooted my devices. Are there any downsides now? Eg. does Google Pay, banking App, etc work with root enabled? I currently have a Pixel 4 XL and Google Pay is a must have.
Hi. I have a Huawei P20 Lite that I would like to unlock. I was following the steps in your video, but I can't find the command online for the "Unlock bootloader" part. Can you help me?
At first it worked very good. but i tried to flash another boot image and it bricked, so i used LSMA(for motorola devices) and i tried to root again using this method. it never worked again. idk if it was because of the thing i tried to flash, but im not sure. im even flashing the current boot image. what i tried to flash that messed it up was a custom rom.
