Hello, I am a person who lives in South Korea and wants to root. Perhaps because of s918n's n, all community methods fail frequently. Even the installation of twrp has not been successful yet, but the note 9 that is playing at home succeeds in less than an hour after starting work..
I'm too beginner, so the current factor I figured out is that each region in the world has a different model, and as an identifier, n means South Korea, that is, it's impossible until twrp and rom suitable fo
r phones with n come out..
I am wondering if my analysis is correct. Oh, and currently, as far as I know, my model does not have a rooting method.. Is this correct?

Are you trying to root your phone or install a custom ROM?
I have failed all the methods on the s23ultra bulletin board. Please give me the address where I can download the twrp and rom files that have been verified to work on the current s918n..

I don't quite understand what you want (Sorry, language barrier), but to root your device follow Magisk's official Installation Instructions. I beleive there are currently no custom ROMs for your device because your device is so new. Let me know if you have any questions!

AnswerThank you so much, I finally succeeded. I'm still not sure what exactly happened, so I don't even know why it happened, but...
First of all, I succeeded in obtaining superuser privileges, and I am enjoying all the privileges after rooting, such as installing the Majisk module. First of all, I was determined, but in the end, the point that the banking app and the Korean multifinancial integration app called TOS are not open after rooting is more difficult and nerve-wracking than I thought... First of all, since I have entered the world of rooting, I will enjoy a little and identify the cause later...
Thank you so much for your interest and help

I bought a phone in mainland China (Huawei Enjoy 5s, TAG-AL00). I found out the hard way that they actually set the phone up so google won't work on it. First thing I did was try the APK download, this doesn't work however, it seems that I need a new ROM to get get rid of the Chinese stuff they put on it.
I searched around online, I found essentially no information to help me. The best I've found is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/huawei-enjoy-5-tit-al00-install-google-t3274461
However as you can see the model number is slightly different and the TAG-AL00 has come up a couple of times in this the above thread but there haven't been any answers as to whether or not the ROM will work on the TAG-AL00 model. The TIT-AL00 is called Enjoy 5, so the model name is similar, I am sceptical however as the model number is different. Also the GR3 models have the model number TAG-something (no something = AL00 though).
I have asked anyone who has the TAG-AL00 if they managed to get it working, no replies however.
Similarly for this thread which is specific to the model I have, no solutions however.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/huawei-enjoy-5s-tag-al00-install-google-t3360697
I have no idea if the TIT-AL00 ROM would work on the TAG model. I am willing to give it a go and see, since there seems to be few other options. What sort of consequences would I expect if it is not compatible? Would it be possible for me to do this and recover the phone if things went badly?
I've found only this ROM download, however since this appears to be the official ROM and to my knowledge the TAG-AL00 model only seems to be available in China, the ROM may well still block google anyway.
http://www.needrom.com/download/enjoy-5s-tag-al00/#comments
Would creating my own custom ROM be a viable option, or maybe my only option? I've had a look at this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801690
I'm a N00B when it comes to this, I've never rooted an android device before. The closest i've come to something related was flashing Raspian to and SD card when setting up a RaspberryPi. Creating a custom ROM is definitely something I'd want to get into though, so maybe this would be a better option anyway?
Given the lack of responses surrounding the TAG-AL00 model, I'm not expecting any solutions. But perhaps someone could maybe point me in the best direction, or give some general advice (for a N00B who has never rooted an android) on what I could do to get google services working on this device.

Ok thanks
Hi. I own a Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) (SM-A910F/DS) with Android 8.0 (August security patch). It is now out of warranty. I want to root it. I do have prior experience in rooting my secondary Android phone but this phone is my daily driver and hence want some doubts cleared before attempting to root it using Odin. Following are the questions I need answers for:-
I am just going to root my phone to do some small scale customisation. I don't want to flash a custom or stock ROM. Some sources on the internet say that simply rooting the phone won't trip its KNOX flag while others say it will. What is the truth?
If indeed the KNOX flag gets tripped, will I ever be able to use Samsung Pay on my phone again?
If the KNOX flag doesn't trip, will Samsung Pay work on a rooted phone?
The firmware.mobi site hasn't yet updated the SM-A910F's firmware version to that of Android 8.0. My phone had received the Oreo update on 18th October, 2018. Can I still root my phone using whatever latest CF-Auto-Root package I get from there?
How to know if my phone is encrypted? I am confused about this because I haven't manually enabled any kind of encryption on my phone but since there is so much caution regarding rooting an encrypted phone, I don't want to take any chance.
So, these are the 5 questions which I want satisfactory answers for before I root my phone. A good explanation which will ward off my anxiety will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I understand your frustration but, please remember that developments for devices sometimes take a while before any developments begin to emerge. This is especially true for many Samsung devices too.
Also, the more members who request for a device the better. I can only encourage you to also request for the A9 Series device within the thread from the link that I had provided you with (the last one on my previous post).
Good Luck!

Yes, rooting your phone with CF / TWRP will trip Knox and disable Samsung Pay. Google Pay however will work on a device that has been returned to stock, but not one that has active root. Since it's looking for root as opposed to a Knox bit, this can probably be masked pretty easily if you wanted to use it on a rooted device.
Looking on firmware.mobi, I see 3 releases already for CF on Android 8.0 for your phone.
And your phone most definitely is encrypted. Any Samsung with Android 7.0 from the factory is encrypted. The exception is devices that were running Android 6 or lower that have been upgraded to 7+ and weren't encrypted by the user beforehand.

Late reply, but yea, there's a A4, an A40 and an A42 forum. Not sure why there's no A41 forum.
and is there any Custom ROM for this model or is it better to forget it?
I was using different search engines and tried to look on 4pda russian site and some german site with no luck
i also have this model and want to root it. i've found a few sites that have a how-to but i do not trust them.
Seems like A41 and A51 are taking off here, I know at least 5 people with them, they got them last year, but yeah, not much on the techy web about it.

Are you rooted now?
It is pretty easy with Magisk.
Base thing is to have original software, that you can download from https://www.sammobile.com.
BTW:
Some folk, me included, requested to add this device to inventory but so far not much success.

I drive my rooted A41 since months.
If something is not broken - don't repair it - this is my rule and I don't have time to follow all new trends.
Besides - I have other, backup Galaxy, M12, which was rooted with help of this forum, too.
How to root A41?
Reading this forum to learn.
Everything I did was taken from here and while I don't have it till hands as rooting happened months ago surely all this is here, newer software & ROM hints including.
I have built a kernel if anyone wants it @F308

Hello again guys right I have another question and I know its more than likely been answered a million times but I am truly a newbie my question: Rooting does it let you put the latest or recent android os on old android tablets? Like for example my archos 80 xs which in another thread which I need help on as Its going nuts atm! Which if you check my other thread you'll see what that's about. Anyway I look forward to your answers and thank you in advance .

Rooting it or not is not essential to that but you should need two main things in order to do this:
- Your device´s bootloader need to be unlockable or is unlocked by default or as in old times happened with some devices doesn´t matter if it is unlocked or not (prior to KitKat)
- And of course that it is a custom ROM available for your specific device.

Hi all,
I'm hoping one the XDA geniuses can help with a challenge I have!
I have a Viewsonic VSD243 I bought second hand to give to my kids but didn't realize it's a non-GMS device and therefore doesn't support playstore. Most of the apps the kids want need playstore so have been looking for a way to get playstore working without luck. Now I know why it was so cheap!
The bootloader is locked and I haven't been able to get to the bootloader to unlock as there are no physical volume buttons on the device and abd reboot bootloader just restarts the device...fastboot is not finding a device no matter what I try. I've been attempting various other workarounds for weeks with no luck (e.g. methods used for Huawei devices using apps like chat partner, ) but not had any luck
Please could someone recommend a method(s) to unlock the bootloader / root the device given the above (especially with the restriction of not having physical volume keys)? Ideally I'd like to create a dual boot on the device, one with existing ROM and one with custom (e.g. via Magisk) but can't get to root :-(
Your help would be really appreciated

I successfully unlocked and rooted a VSD231 with KingoRoot.apk just say no to all the junk it tries to put on it. I am going from memory a long time ago.
thank you for responding and good to know you managed with a viewsonic device. I'll give it a go as don't have many other options...
I spoke to Viewsonic and was told the only way to get playstore was to jailbreak the device and put on an alternate ROM...when I asked how to unlock the bootloader to do it they said they couldn't / wouldn't tell me :-( !!
When I talked to them years ago, they were very surprised that I unlocked and rooted my VSD231.
