After a couple of months of deep research I have managed to find a solution to unlock bootloader and root our SMAO15F device.
1st step: If your on android 10 it's possible to unlock bootloader even if our device has that option by default.
Fortunately with the newly released of official android 11 we are able to do so all you gotta do is you have to jump to android 11 if you're still on android Q then proceed to the unlocking method.
2nd step: after bootloader unlock download this .tar file (patched boot image for android 11 samsung sma015f).
Final process: Go to download mode, open latest odin and import the attached file with the AP button, phone will automatically restart after the process or restart it manually if not,
voila our samsung a01 is now rooted without twrp. Now we just have to wait for someone to make a custom twrp for our device or wait for official twrp or kindly please let me know if there is.

How To Root Samsung A01 (a015f/DS)
Hello, I want to ask how to root samsung galaxy a01 (a015f) , i want to instal f.lux for better blue light filter, Thanks!
forum.xda-developers.com
Thank you very much
1. Unlock your bootloader enter in download mode Vol+ + Vol- + USB conected to pc (Keep in mind that by doing this you will lose your files, it is advisable to make a backup of your photos, music, etc.)
2. Once you start your cell phone install magisk manager, Choosing the boot.img file of your rom into the app (Tip: Only!!! If your model is SM-A015M Android 11 I leave you my own modified boot.img to flash:
File on MEGA
mega.nz
Otherwise, you can download the firmware (3.79 gb) and extract the boot.img from the firmware of your model SM-A015 M / F ... Android 10, Android 11... etc. And No need for pc
https://samfrew.com/model/SM-A015M/
3. The image will begin to flash
4. When it restarts you will have Root on the cell phone!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extra: If you need the custom recovery I give you the link with my TWRP which is installed through the Odin program on a PC (this step does not delete your files)
File on MEGA
mega.nz
Keep in mind that to install TWRP you must deactivate the DM-VERITY & FORCEENCRYPT DISABLER I leave it in a link:
Zackptg5 - Android
zackptg5.com
This is a module that can be installed via magisk, which is necessary to decrypt the system ... so once TWRP is installed, it is advisable to uninstall it via Magisk to avoid R / W errors

after flashing the AP, the phone won't boot and says can't load android system.
edit: i patched my own AP with Magisk and it worked.
So i managed to upgrade my samsung a01m/ds to android 11 & i had unlocked the bootloader. Afterwards i had use the magisk rooting process, then flashed a boot.img that i had extracted from firmware (if needed i will upload) then the phone restated and took like 7 minutes to start, having said that i setup my device but upon doing so i noticed i was not able to use wifi but i had mobile data , managed to get in and install root checker pro and i had root but there was root( will leave an image ) but i didn't enjoy the fact that the wifi was not working, my hotspot wasn't working. i never managed to install TWRP becuase i was tampering a little more and trip my knox. it's been like 2 months since it trip and the OEM UNLOCKING in developer options is yet to be visible so i can unlock the oem and start a fesh.

I managed to root my phone using this method but after I rooted, my wifi was stuck at turning on. I would then restore it to its stock firmware to have the wifi back and it did, but then I rooted again and wifi got stuck again. How do I fix this problem?

Doing this quick update because today, when trying to root my phone, bricked it several times and lost all app info
If you are using android 7.11, this guide works fine: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/how-to-root-zenfone-3-zoom-ze553kl-t3622256
If on android 8, SuperSU will brick your phone. Use Magisk instead:
- enable usb debug mode on your phone
- unlock bootloader
- plug phone into your computer
on your pc
- Download fastboot and adb:
* Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
* macos: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-darwin.zip
* linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
- download the latest Magisk unlock script from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases and copy it to a MicroSD or USB that you can attach to your phone. Look for Magisk, not Magisk Manager
- download twrp v 3.1.0-0-Z01H-20170408: https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w?E81jQTCD (this is from https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w, as described in the old root guide using twrp + supersu. It is supposed to be safe)
- `adb reboot bootloader`
- `fastboot flash recovery <path to twrp image downloaded>`
- `fastboot reboot`
Right now, you should probably backup your phone.
back on your phone:
- before booting, press volume up on the bootloader, there, select Recovery. Using fastboot to reboot into recovery might cause the stock recovery image to reflash
- if prompted to enable system modifications, allow it.
- If prompted to decrypt your data in TWRP, use the PIN you setup. If it doesn't work, I can't guarantee you won't brick our phone. Feeling brave enough? In case of brick keep reading, it is easy to restore your phone to stock Android 8 using official firmware.
- press install, choose the device attached to your phone that has Magisk-xxx.zip and select it
- flash the image and it should be OK
In case of brick or unsuccessful flash from SuperSU and without backup:
- Don't panic, like I did today
- download the latest firmware from Asus: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Zoom-ZE553KL/HelpDesk_BIOS/
- follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/manually-update-to-7-11-t3815703
- when the phone reboots, boot into recovery
- enable ADB sideload
- on your pc: `adb sideload <path to newest firmare>`
- now follow the root guide above before starting your phone
- ???
- profit
Note: commands using adb and fastboot assume you have put the contents from the downloaded platform tools in your PATH, else execute them from the directory in which they were extracted, for instance, on linux:
- `cd /home/$USER/Downloads`
- `unzip platform-tools-latest-linux.zip`
- `cd platform-tools`
- `./adb devices`
Bricked my phone.
in which step?
You should have access to fastboot, try the downgrade tutorial and install android 7 then imediately flash the latest image from ASUS

After the magisk install. It logged some "can't mount partition" errors, I tried to wipe, but do not worked.
It got stucked on Asus logo.
I did the unbrick tutorial.
This is strange. Magisk is supposed to patch the boot image and install its app (by the way, if you update magisk using the app, phone enters bootloop)
Anyway, I have encountered myself many problems when installing, but nothing like this. Bootloops and corruption message on bootloader yes, but I can't seem to recall anything about partitions not being mounted. If installing stock recovery image, boot image and system doesn't do the trick, in my experience it is either bad partitioning, although unlikely, because those procedures doesn't repartition anything, or bad internal storage.
But just to be sure, you should reflash stock 7.1 image (recovery, boot and system) with fastboot, enter stock recovery and wipe cache/factory reset. If your phone is physically healthy, this should work

I can't really help you there. This guide is supposed to work for those who are able to unlock bootloader using official asus tools. Never heard of unofficial unlock methods. It is possible that you have a hardware problem if you use those tools and they just don't work.

Have you used the latest official unlocking tool? I see there's a July 2019 version available.
If you are on an older version of Android (not Oreo) are you presently still getting OTA update prompts?
I tried this tool but no result.
is it possible to root ZE553KL without loosing user application's data? I have unrooted device, wanted to migrate telegram secret chats to new phone. it is doable but with rooted smartphone only. if rooting process is destructive I cannot migrate. if rooting is doable with preserving installed applications along with their data then there is a hope for successful migration.
does this method look promising or it is just fake method?

Is there any way to work root for galaxy a10s i tried all the methods and didn't work with me ... even the boot.img method via odin didn't work with me .... is there any other way ?????

CPU Octa-core 2.0 GHz Cortex-A53
Any helps please
Good morming,
This link worked for me: https://www.full-repair-firmware.com/2019/10/how-to-root-a107m-9.0.html
Although I didn't use the BL from the (in my case TELCEL SM-A107M) firmware, I downloaded this Boot file (I don't remember from where ), it is for A107MUBU3ASI4:
https://mega.nz/#!tRgXgCTI!dHdQPB-MSQ7Znpm7d-Nme7lwwc_w2-im75putNHxgtM
SO I copied the boot file to the sdcard, ran magisk manager on the phone, selected patch boot image and selected the boot image on the sdcard for patching, after the patching is done, I copied the image back to the PC, started Odin, booted the phone to download mode (turn it off, connect the phone to the usb cable press power button to start the phone, then release the power button and press both volume buttons until it boots to download mode), then when Odin detected the phone I clicked the AP button on Odin, selected the patched boot file that I copied from the phone and then clicked on the Start button to flash the image, then when Odin finished, the phone booted automatically ... the tutorial says that the phone will ask for a factory reset and delete all the phone info, but in my case it didn't asked for nothing nor deleted my data, so I got root without losing information, as soon as the phone booted it was already rooted an root was working witout me having to do anything.
The first time I rooted my phone I installed xposed framework, then had some troubles with the beta version, got a bootloop and had to re-flash the original firmware, BUT when I tried to reflash the patched boot image I got the PreNormal message and had to wait a week to root again my phone .
So I googled and then found some info about the KG/RMM problem, but couldn't find a zip that worked for the SM-A107M, also since there is no TWRP available to this model, I wouldn't be able to flash the zip anyway, but I found that deleting this files:
libvkjni.so
libvkmanager.so
libvkservice.so
KnoxGuard.apk/Rlc.apk
will disable the service.
The first 3 are in the system/lib directory, the knoxGuard apk is in the priv-app/knoxGuard directory.
So I rooted the phone again (after waiting 7 day to prenormal to end) and in the first boot I
installed "Root Explorer" from the play store (Any file manager with root privileges will work) and deleted 4 of those files (the RLC.apk I couldn't find) and after 2 weeks of rebooting, reinstalling xposed, getting the bootloop problem again , re-flashing original firmware (without the KG/RMM prenormal state), re-rooting, and finally installing xposed without problems (in my phone the 4.6.0 beta version didn't work so I inistalled the 4.5.1 beta) I am happy with my rooted, xposed phone.
I would really like if somebody created/xported a TWRP for this model, but in the interim all is good the ends good.
Regards
:good: Thanks for the wonderful information .... But the problem I have is KGG / RM PRENORMAL STATE .... must do cancellation of the first ...
If you have already Prenormal state, then you have to wait 7 days, dont turn off your phone, don't restart and don't disconnect from the internet, then after the 7 days (168 hrs) the prenormal state should disappear!
Check this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...w-to/guide-root-install-twrp-samsung-t3747535
Best Regards
I did not find prenormal state or normal.....
I found : KG status : checking
OEM unlock : off
Then, if not in prenormal, you should be able to flash and root your phone!

Good night
Unfortunately .... this root method did not work for me .... via Magisk ... I don't know what the problem is .... but this method did not work for me which is in many websites and it is the same way .... As follows my device info :
Ap: A107FXXU3ASJ5
CP: A107FXXU3ASJ1
CSC: A107FOJM3ASJ5
Model: sm- A107F / DS
The same method is used by everyone via Magisk ...
My device have no problem:
Unlocking the device bootloader
OEM unlock: off
Kg status: checking
I have no prenormal state
I followed all the steps on the sites
1- I downloaded Galaxy A10S Firmware
2- I downloaded and installed the latest Magisk Manager app.
3- Copied only the boot.img file from the extracted folder to a device storage.
4- opened the Magisk Manager app then clicked on on “Patch Boot Image File”.
5- when patched boot img finished from Magisk .... I renamed to boot.img and used 7zip and archived it to .tar format ....
6- I flashed via Odin in download mode but I got on fail .....
I don't know what problem ...
But this is what happened !!!!
Did you use the boot image (BL) I posted on the second post??
Download the file, copy it to your phone, use magisk manager to patch it, copy patched image to pc, flash via Odin to your phone.
Regards
No, I didn't use that boot img .... It the same : A107F .... A107M.. ???
I will try later.
I used that boot in your post .... for A107m.... l flashed via Odin in my A107F ... It's flashed in my device.... but when I boot to Magisk..... no root........ for that I think will wait someone to create twrp for galaxy A10s then I flash root.... Thanks for everything....

What do i need to do to make the oem unlock option appear again?
I've already tried the turning off updates and changing dates thing.
And I waited out the 7 days ( Which was difficult since my IP doesnt have a stable connection.)
I've started doubting if it even exists at all.
I only got my A10s for free from a carrier plan.
KG Status is Normal
OEM is still locked and nowhere to be seen

If you made all the attempts and didn't succeed with you ... Install the stock firmware for your country ... and you delay the date a few months earlier ... then go to update the program .... then you should have an OEM unlock

And how does one Install a "different/new" firmware?
I remember doing it once or twice with Odin with a firmware I got from sammobile SMA-107f.
Succeeded. Although I don't know if it actually worked, since it booted up just like the first time I got it, with the carriers default wallpaper and pre-loaded apps.
I've been trying to root the SM-A107F for weeks now but no luck.. Any help will be appreciated

when you flash the patched AP.tar you should also be flashing it with the rest of the firmware.. tjw even says somewhere on his github you shouldnt flash the patched AP by itself
i have an Samsung Galaxy A01 SM-A015M with stock rom, i already tried what I could find on the internet, activated the oem unlock, restarted the device in download mode, I hit the key to unlock the bootloader, my cell phone was formatted, I did all the steps, I activated the developer settings again, and the option "oem unlock" was still active, supposedly it should appear grayed, I tried to install twrp and it didn't work, I tried to install magisk from Odin and it didn't work either, the download mode kept telling me that the bootloader was locked, I don't know what else to do!

I already tried that guide, it won't let me install the CROM Service apk, i went to other pages and it tells me the same thing "This application was not installed".
I also tried the Gearallnews "How To Unlock Bootloader On Samsung Galaxy A01 – OEM Unlock!" guide, and it didn't work either.
Now I am trying to install windows 7 (Because supposedly windows 10 has problems with fastboot, I tried and adb detected it but not fastboot, I already have all the drivers fine) in virtualbox to use fastboot on my a01, to try to unlock the bootloader from there.
I already installed twrp to many cell phones and something like this had never happened to me.

Thank you very much
1. Unlock your bootloader enter in download mode Vol+ + Vol- + USB conected to pc (Keep in mind that by doing this you will lose your files, it is advisable to make a backup of your photos, music, etc.)
2. Once you start your cell phone install magisk manager, Choosing the boot.img file of your rom into the app (Tip: Only!!! If your model is SM-A015M Android 11 I leave you my own modified boot.img to flash:
File on MEGA
mega.nz
Otherwise, you can download the firmware (3.79 gb) and extract the boot.img from the firmware of your model SM-A015 M / F ... Android 10, Android 11... etc. And No need for pc
https://samfrew.com/model/SM-A015M/
3. The image will begin to flash
4. When it restarts you will have Root on the cell phone!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extra: If you need the custom recovery I give you the link with my TWRP which is installed through the Odin program on a PC (this step does not delete your files)
File on MEGA
mega.nz
Keep in mind that to install TWRP you must deactivate the DM-VERITY & FORCEENCRYPT DISABLER I leave it in a link:
Zackptg5 - Android
zackptg5.com
This is a module that can be installed via magisk, which is necessary to decrypt the system ... so once TWRP is installed, it is advisable to uninstall it via Magisk to avoid R / W errors
Hello everyone hope you are all keeping well.
Since I believe that many of you don't know about this, I've decided to share the steps I've done in order to root the OP 11R ( ACE 2 )
I cannot be responsible if you brick your device. Your phone, your choices, your responsibility!
1 - Unlock the bootloader (if you haven't done it already...beware that this will erase all of your user data). To do so, you must:
Enable developer options
Enable the "OEM unlocking" option
Enable USB debugging
Have both adb and fastboot, from SDK Platform Tools available on your PC
Connect your phone to your PC using the USB cable and run the following commands:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
(so your phone will reboot into fastboot mode)
fastboot flashing unlock
(device should now unlock)
fastboot reboot
(device reboots with an unlocked bootloader and data partition wiped so set up the device from scratch again)
2 - Download OP 11R stock boot.img that you may find later on this post, that matches your current build.
Copy the boot.img to your devices internal memory
Leave a copy of it on your PC (on the same folder you have adb and fastboot...you never know if you will need to use it again in the future...to restore the stock boot.img, aka revert to stock...)
Indian Boot.img A_0.8 - download
3 - Download latest Magisk Manager from HERE and install it on your phone
4 - Open Magisk Manager App and press:
Install
Select and Patch a File
Browse to the path where you saved stock boot.img and select it
Magisk Manager will now patch the boot image and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
5 - Copy the patched boot image from your device to your PC (Store it on the same folder where you have adb and fastboot)
6 - Flash the patched boot image to your phone by running these commands (remember, you must have patched boot image on the same folder you have adb and fastboot and, of course, your device must be connected to your PC...)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
7 - After the phone boots up, hopefully with a normal boot (almost feels like nothing happened....), install/open Magisk Manager App again and watch Magisk doing it's magic!
8 - Enjoy!
All credits goes to topjohnwu and his incredible work with Magisk.

MB ... typo
Thank you for detailed steps.
Is there any benefit with KernelSU over this method ?
I always used Magisk on OP8, but recently saw an article for OP11 with Kernel SU.
Also is there MSM tool support to recover softbriked device ?

Sorry but there is no msm tool available for new OnePlus devices. + You can use Fastboot enhance tool from github to recover softbrick , magisk is always recommended for rooting because of ease of steps and simple to use
Hello, thanks for the detailed instructions. Today I updated to A. 10, and unfortunately lost my root access. Without the root cannot extract the boot image. If you're already updated and have a backup of A. 10 boot, can you please share?

Then remember to take a backup of the boot before rebooting. I messed up big time.
Thanks for the detailed information man. Can I know if bootloader unlock decreases widevine L1 to L3? As this was case with my OP6
So uhm first time posting in XDA, and also first time rooting a phone in my life...
Anyways apparently twrp doesn't have an official custom recovery for the J6... and despite searching for the J600G (specificaly: J600GDXSACVB1), I was unable to find any proper website for my model (ive heard I need the exact file for my exact model)... maybe you guys know any twrp custom recovery for it....
And after that... some are saying just flash magisk, some are saying I need to disable VaultKeeper to really unlock Bootloader to then root the device... so I am getting confused
If anyone can help that'll be great!
Phone Info:
Android Version: 10
Baseband Version: J600GDXSACVB1
Knox version: Knox 3.5 (idk if this is needed)
"OEM Unlocking" option in developer setting is enabled
"USB Debugging" is also enabled

TWRP =/= root. Root means you have SU access in Android system. Recovery mode is a separate environment; the difference between TWRP and stock recovery is that TWRP allows you to flash unsigned images.
If you just want to root your phone with Magisk, you can follow these instructions.
Otherwise, if you want to be able to flash custom ROMs, you can use this to patch your stock recovery to enable Fastbootd which will allow you to flash partitions directly instead of using Odin.

Yes, see the Magisk instructions I linked. Samsung likes to make things complicated, so when you've unlocked the bootloader, it still won't let you flash custom images until Vaultkeeper has been disabled.
Hmm ok thanks.. I saw the Magisk installation help page and I am getting stuck in this part:
Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
Reboot to download mode: power off your device and press the download mode key combo for your device
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.

I am long pressing volume up button in download mode however nothing is happening...
(Edit) Oh and KG State (which I assume is another word for RMM Lock) is just showing 'checking' and not 'prenormal' or anything...
I think TWRP may be the cause of the bootloop. I flashed a stock firmware of J600G to completely reset it (factory reset of sorts) and then flashed TWRP, and entered the recovery screen. After that the bootlooping issue started... is there any other good custom recoveries?
Hi TUD, fellow J600G user here, I'd recommend you to start off easy by installing TWRP 3.2.3.
Requirements -
Odin installed on your computer.
USB cable
TWRP tar file
To install TWRP -
1. Switch your phone off and hold volume up and down buttons at the same time while connecting your phone to the computer by cable.
2. Open Odin and go to options, switch off auto reboot, now click on AP and select your TWRP tar file.
3. Now after Odin says PASS disconnect the cable from your phone and hold Volume down + power button for 7 seconds and as soon as the screen goes black hold Volume up + power button. This will boot you into your newly installed TWRP.
When it comes to custom roms J6 has some limitations for a few good ones. In my opinion you can install EvolutionX 4.0 (made by @adi_ss) that is based on android 10 as its the easiest rom to install. All you have to do is follow the instructions given by the developer.
Happy Flashing.
