Found the new link I believe: https://dl.twrp.me/a20
However no matter what I try, I am getting an error after flashing in Oodin and trying to reboot to recovery manually.
The error is in download mode:
Code:
Recovery: Error validating footer. (Something cut off here because of the A20's front camera)
CUSTOM RECOOVERY
VBMETA A205WVLS7BUA1, 37649171R
Any idea how to proceed? I'm flashing AP via the .tar version of TWRP in Odin from stock Android Q for my region

If you can't extract and re-compress the files yourself, then you don't have to use them, and that's my opinion.

What do you mean extract and re-compress? The guide over here mentions nothing about needing to re-compress or extract anything.
Edit: To anyone stuck like myself. I solved it with this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-q-complete-guide-for-the-a20-a205xx.4095589/
My guess is it's something to do with vbmeta.img and boot.img not being included with the new TWRP tar. should Re-compressing a new tar file with those files included in the tar as recovery.tar might solve the issue, though I cannot verify as I'm fine with the working older TWRP.
I am following what is said under "Odin Install Method (No Root Required)" mentioned on this page.

Is there a reason? It doesn't matter. But you have to learn for yourself. That is important, we are not thinking to help you forever.

Knowledge is to be passed on, not to be kept to oneself forever.
Trust me, if I didn't make attempts at figuring it out myself, I wouldn't have bothered asking questions. I also ask questions to avoid breaking my devices, as I'm not one who can just go buying a new phone whenever I please.
I may be the first one asking questions about this, but I won't be the last. Maybe create a better-worded guide and you won't have to deal with such people.

download the recovery from the post above from @physwizz (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/twrp-official-recovery-for-a20-and-a20e.4267815/post-86192489), and the latest official TWRP recovery, pick up the vbmeta.img inside the compressed .tar from the first one and put it inside the official TWRP compressed one.
It worked for me. (SM-A202F)

You can also do it by patching the full ap file and flashing that via odin before you use the official TWRP

Official twrp-3.7.0_9-0 is out for A205 on TWRP website.

I searched up and down, read all the stickies here.
Problem is, in many posts links or images are broken. Other posts assume, the device already has seen custom firmware.
I got a never-touched I9100 and I want to get TWRP running. Once this is achieved, I know the rest. I currently have the stock recovery booting - somewhere this was called 3e. All my attempts to flash TWRP via heimdall resulted in only the old recovery showing up. Somewhere it was mentioned I have to flash another kernel first.
So please, does someone have a tutorial or can leave some notes that WORK?

Thanks for helping and taking your time to upload! So I heimdall-flash this kernel and then 3-button-combo brings me into twrp 2.6.3 from where i can flash lineage or something similar?
And the reason for this is - if I understand right - recovery on I9100 is not a standalone partition but part of the kernel partition - so your recovery will always be bound to your kernel. Did I get this right?
Nope, cannot flash this kernel with heimdall:
Code:
heimdall flash --BOOT Apolo-4.15b_ExtrV2-TWRP/zImage --no-reboot
results in an error:
Code:

Unfortuately this wont help. I tried to install it with the Samung 3e recovery via adb sideload, but the 3e fails to verify the signature. So I cannot use your kernel.zip file. Reading the other linked thread now.
Thanks for helping me, btw. I guess everyone owning a S2 already has a custom rom installed and thats why all the guides I find are oudated. My S2 is just for playing around, so I am in no hurry.
Hi Everyone,
With all of the hype around the Exynos phone its finally time for the TGY/CHC Snapdragon variants to get some attention.
No this won't work with US variants, please don't ask. This is tested on my normal s10 (SM-G9730). I'm not sure if the s10+ would work.
I've worked with a few key people to get this working. So credit goes to Flatty, Ianmacd and the creators of tomatolei rom.
This setup will let the user do the following:
-Boot/Restart phone without holding any odd button combos to boot into rooted rom.
-Hold the recovery buttons to get into TWRP.
-Not having to worry about losing root when restarting if you forget to hold your buttons, you don't need to hold anything once properly setup.
The following steps below will help you achieve a stock rom with TWRP:
1. You must be on stock rom, ideally non rooted. If you are rooted, flash your stock rom (The rom version is important, this was completed using the ASH2 version of the TGY firmware.) using ODIN (CSC HOME).
2. Once flashed boot into android and ensure OEM unlocking is enabled in developer settings.
3. Boot to download mode by turning the phone off, then press and hold the volume down button along with the Bixby key just beneath it, then press and hold the power button.
4. Flash attached TWRP from download mode. (This led my phone to boot looping). https://www.mediafire.com/file/cg8bcrf78v66v8j/LatestTomato.tar/file
5. Flash the second attached TWRP (you may have to restart and re-enter download mode again). (I believe the above flash is required too, as it likely contains vendor info). https://www.mediafire.com/file/21akg54uxqk3eix/G9730_TWRP_3.3.1-1_tomatolei-0831-v4.0.tar/file
6. Reboot phone to recovery mode (Volume up, bixby and power upon restart) which will now boot you to TWRP.
7. Flash Snapdragon muti disabler from TWRP. https://www.mediafire.com/file/opbsc7wrcr69b2v/multidisabler-samsung-1.6.zip/file *Per @FlatOutRU After flashing multidisabler you must Wipe Data (if you didn't do that before with twrp - Thanks for the clarification.
8. Boot to your rom and ensure all is well.
9. Feel free to download the latest Magisk zip and flash root from TWRP by using the recovery mode button sequence upon restart.
Sidenote: The G9730_TWRP_3.3.1-1_tomatolei-0831-v4.0.tar and tomatolei ROM also let me install PHH AOSP and PHH LineageOS
PHH AOSP microG: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...arm64aosp-9-0-0r21-microg-ufofficial-t3878115
PHH LineageOS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...i-lineageos-16-0-gsi-arm64-ab-how-to-t3908029
Hopefully this gets a few nice Stock ROMs being produced.
Download links are added.
Fznwolf: congrat for this thread, well explained.

Thanks for the compliment @pixiebob
1) I believe the latestomato.tar has some pieces of tomato rom that allow for booting.
2) Yes, i didnt use magisk_patched.tar. I used the official magisk zip after all of my original steps as the last step.
3) I have several backups, I'm on TGY. Try start from scratch and follow my above steps using a TGY rom. Sounds like you may need to wipe and start over using the original steps provided, make sure to use the multidisabler originally attached.

No, you didn't work with other people. You just spammed me ,my pm here and in telegram to get explanation and posted it here without permission
You've also forgot one important step. After flashing multidisabler you must Wipe Data (if didn't do that before with twrp)
Multidisabler - i've just changed a few lines in @ianmacd code to get it working on our Snapdragon variant.
Twrp.tar - extracted boot.img and recovery.img from @tomatolei ROM for S10+ 9750
Thanks again @FlatOutRU I've updated the initial description to include the wipe after the muti-disabler flash as per your comments.
Hopefully this allows more work to be done on the Snap s10s!

When you say flash (with only stock recovery installed) do you mean with Odin? Which boxes in odin would this tar files go to (e.g. AP, boot?). My phone is s10+ 9750. has it been tested on that? thanks a lot.

I see no one's responded to you in the last few days, probably because the OP says to not bother asking if it works with US variants. No there's no known way to get root on one of the 97_U variants. The bootloader is locked, and it would take a miracle to bypass that.
Cannot use Dex for PC function.
Could you upload tomatolei's twrp v6, which updated the kernel to support the Dex funtion? Many thanks!

You have the A10, which is a bit different than the A10s so it is most likely that any GSI that boots to your phone will not boot for mine. Besides, A10s does not have TWRP yet and A10 does

how to root SM-A107f Samsung Galaxy A10s
ShaDisNX255 said:
Yes.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so this is what i did to root my A10s.
1. check what binary your phone is running I already updated mine so my phone is on Android 10 binary 6.
how to check your binary - goto setings-about phone-software info, check Baseband version so on my phone its A107FXXU6BTES the U6 indicates your binary some has U3 binary 3 or U5, S5 binary 5
once you determined your binary.
2. activate DEVELOPER OPTIONS then activate OEM UNLOCK
samfw.com/firmware/SM-A107F/XTC/A107FXXU6BTF
go to this website and download the appropriate firmware.
each will contain a BL, AP, CP, and Home_CSC.
3. once finished downloading unlock your bootloader just boot to download mode then there is an option to press and HOLD VOLUME UP to unlock bootloader then press volume up again. if it didn't reboot instantly press and hold volume up and down again just do it again until when you choose to unlockbootloader it will reboot instatly.
4. after unlocking bootloader just go through the entire process of setting up your phone keep the bootloader unlock, INSTALL Magisk manager, so yeah install magisk choose patch image then from your downloaded firmware remove the "MD5" at the end of the files so it will be AP_A107F.tar then choose the AP to patch hrough magisk
5. after patching copy the patched file to your PC extract it by WINRAR get the boot.img if its boot.img.lz4 it means patch was not sucessful
6. after getting the boot.img copy it to your phone again and patch again make sure to rename it boot.img from inside the generated patch file then compress it as TAR using 7zip
7. flash it through odin on AP section and there your magisk rooted.
sorry for the long post

2. activate DEVELOPER OPTIONS then activate OEM UNLOCK
samfw.com/firmware/SM-A107F/XTC/A107FXXU6BTF
go to this website and download the appropriate firmware.
each will contain a BL, AP, CP, and Home_CSC.
3. once finished downloading unlock your bootloader just boot to download mode then there is an option to press and HOLD VOLUME UP to unlock bootloader then press volume up again. if it didn't reboot instantly press and hold volume up and down again just do it again until when you choose to unlockbootloader it will reboot instatly.
4. after unlocking bootloader just go through the entire process of setting up your phone keep the bootloader unlock, INSTALL Magisk manager, so yeah install magisk choose patch image then from your downloaded firmware remove the "MD5" at the end of the files so it will be AP_A107F.tar then choose the AP to patch hrough magisk
5. after patching copy the patched file to your PC extract it by WINRAR get the boot.img if its boot.img.lz4 it means patch was not sucessful
6. after getting the boot.img copy it to your phone again and patch again make sure to rename it boot.img from inside the generated patch file then compress it as TAR using 7zip
7. flash it through odin on AP section and there your magisk rooted.
sorry for the long post

Hi '''Mirloo''''About rooting the (Samsung Galaxy 10s SM-A107f) I have tried most of the rooting akps with no luck (cfautoroot I have not tried yet)'''''''As for using Odin & magisk I am getting so many different instructions from different posts
1 unlock the bootloader This I have done successfully
The next steps using Magisk & Odin Start to get misleading
one site says Copy the AP to your phone and patch it where another site says says change the format of the AP file to tar by deleting .mds then copy it to your phone
I seem to get confused now as what to do next ''''Please could you give me full instructions ....Thank you
I have attempted to patch boot.img around 7 times unsuccessfully, I have the SM-A107F, can someone please send me the correctly patched boot image for my device, will be much appreciated.
i have this device, SM-A107F/DS, still no custom rom? is it possible to install lineage os?

I'm also waiting for this. Tried flashing twrp recovery using odin but I failed. The error says "only official binaries are allowed to be flashed" tried flashing the original firmware but same error. Wondering why.
is it possible to install a GSI rom without TWRP?
It is possible but involves a heck ton of work you basically need to extract an entire GSI and compress each file using lz4 then repack them the way Samsung does and flash using Odin
The work involved in repacking the GSI in Samsung's format when there is no guarantee what issues the GSi will coz with the device makes it not a very suitable option
But yeah you can try for the heck of it, here's a thread that might help you

not really since samsung has no fastboot mode
try renaming system.img.ext4.lz4 as super.img.lz4 as that's the name of the file in stock

So the flash itself went well without any errors. But the tablet is in a boot loop. When it boots Samsung Galaxy logo appears and reboots. This tablet is running Android 11 so do I need to install Android 11 Lineage OS?

Nope don't think the android version would have anything to do with it is probably the os not working properly
Maybe try some other GSI like pixel experience to see if they work

I downloaded the zip file but there is no system.img file. Is there a way to extract the img file?
If I have twrp or any custom recovery can I just install it with the zip file?

Well you can extract the contents using something like winrar or 7zip and then try building an Odin flashable md5 like you did for the last one

Samsung's stock recovery is kinda strange so not sure if it could be used with some other device' twrp then mixed and mashed together to port the twrp
Probably needs to be built from the ground up

Oh ok thanks. And I was able to root this device but can I install a custom rom from that state? Tab was rooted with Samsung's default firmware with magisk installed

Nope rooting has no role in flashing custom roms that all is recovery dependent
I just got the Pro1-X with Android. The bootloader is unlocked, but how do you get the boot image from the stock Android to patch Magisk?
There's a firmware image here, but every time I try to download it it says the download quota has been exceeded.
Right click that file in drive and copy to your own google drive, then you can download despite the quota on that account that posted it.
*Edit*
boot.img from the archive @blackknightavalon linked.
here is the rooted boot.img file Click me!
Yeah, I was able to download the entire .gz file after I posted that. Took me until now to get around to rooting the thing. Once you have the boot.img you can patch it through Magisk Manager as usual, reboot to the bootloader, and flash it as boot via Fastboot.
I cannot wait until there is official LineageOS for this thing.
