Hello, Thinhx2 has ported TWRP and I think I should share it here. There is a chance to brick your device with this (I bricked mine while formatting system partition but i locked the bootloader and couldt do anything so keep your fingers away formatting system)
The most other things work fine so you can now flash GSIs using TeamWin Recovery.
I dont have a GSI ready boot img (without dm-verity) for the 00EEA (europe verison) Nokia 3.2. If anyone has one please post it (best with full firmware)

thanks,
perfect.
I found already two little problems!
1. My GSI Image is not booting anymore. Perhaps the twrp boot partition can only be used with the according security patch images?!!! Do you know which boot.img was used to create the TWRP image? Or the dm-verity is not off?
2. It seems that the partitions are not correctly mounted! Is there similar to linux perhaps a fstab where the correct partition data must be filled in? I don't have access to my /sdcard folder. Only thing that worked for me was with the ADB sideload function within the TWRP recovery.
Greetings
i ask thinhx2 to recreate the images and write the firmware version here
it doesnt flash it says partition table doesnt exist or something like that
i am trying to get back to stock rom but am getting error 255

If tokens can be updated to flash higher bootloaders then I will adjust files accordingly
This works great! I flashed the entire U1 DUB7 update with the force wipe with BL files in the USERDATA slot. Everything went well.
Tried this on my G981V and failed on (auth). Was worth the try although I soft bricked my phone lol

The ones without bootloaders will work. The NO_BL ones. Probably have to use the force wipe one
So, if I have the S20+ (US Cellular) and want to try the 3.1 firmware:
1.) Download the firmware
2.) Put your file for it into user data field in Odin
3.) Put in AP, CSC (home or whatever to not overwrite my USC one I think) and the rest EXCEPT for the bootloader into Odin
4.) Flash as usual and then everything should work. I'll keep my unlock and be able to use the 3.1 firmware?

I did it that way, used the BL included file and flashed all the stock files, after the full wipe everything that I needed was included. Worked great, on UI 3.1 rn
It worked for me also, thanks for making this.
hi jrkruse i just got an A71 5g unlocked (thanks afaneh92), and i was wondering if you could make an aio userdata file for it? so i can flash ui 3.1 firmware to it? like this for my s20 ultra..(this thread)
Hello, if I want to put the firmware on it with Odin, it always gets stuck on the mobile phone.

The official Binary error is caused by flashing non-stock firmware like TWRP recovery. This is because your KG state is showing Prenormal ( as seen in your download mode ). To flash TWRP etc. the KG state has to be showing checking state.

FAQ
Q: Can i use this recovery with other firmware then mentioned in compatibility?
A: Only with same Android version or Rollback protection might kick in and you won't be able to pass the lockscreen.
Q: Where do i get vbmeta.img?
A: From here, download the one you need according to install instructions.
Q: TWRP can't mount data partition, what to do?
A: Make sure you formatted data partition.
Q: Phone is not booting even after 20 minutes
A: Try to reboot. If still not booting, make sure you flashed multidisabler zip / formatted data partition.
Q: How to format data partition?
A:
Q: Phone is showing only Samsung logo
A: Try to reboot. If still not booting, consider installing an older TWRP build or a more recent firmware. If you still don't succeed, post here some details about your device and previous firmware and we might be able to help.
Q: Why do i need to format data partition?
A: Because old firmware encrypted your data partition and new rom can't decrypt and use that content / root needs access to data partition to place misc files / phone not booting after flashing root until data partition gets formatted.
Thanks for this. Where is twrp.img for Note 20 Ultra 5G / N986B
Updated first post with official pages from twrp.me, but since the builds are not up yet, i posted latest test builds in post #2.

I notice I have bootloder on my device that I didn't install my self. I'm just a average user and have no clue how this was put on my phone. Also all of my apps are older versions an I'm unable to update them. I need help figuring out what's going on. Anyone please help!!!

Many thanks for the latest update mate
1. Can I use this TWRP version with any custom ROM (e.g. Dr. Ketan ROM)?
2. Do I have to flash vbmeta.img, even when I have that custom ROM?
3. Is there a twrp.img for N986B that supports Android encryption, since right now encryption is somehow disabled after installing Dr. Ketan ROM: the lockscreen password has no effect and I can access and read all files on all partitions with the TWRP file manager !

1. Yes as long as the rom dev doesn't have other instructions regarding the recovery used (i.e. LineageOs)
2. No, you already have some nulled vbmeta flashed since you are running a custom rom.
3. Nope, since samsung uses proprietary encryption. You can however preserve data encryption in the rom (talk that with the dev of your rom), but this will make it unreadable by twrp in any conditions. Please keep in mind that Samsung fw may not like it and it can trigger a data wipe without warnings.

Many Thanks!
Re. 3.: With "fw" you meant FRP? But when I have root I can simply erase FRP and most Knox and other unwanted bloatware apks on /system, /product, /prism etc. ?
Btw. do you know if there is there a possibility to completely remove the Samsung ROM and replace it with a plain Android? You may lose one hardware driver for the "Sasmung Pen" but everthying else should work..?

Fw as in firmware. Regarding plain android - search for AOSP based projects, i'm not aware of the active developement so i can't properly advice you in this matter.

i am trying to root my note 20 u device. when all succesfully start from magisk module and twrp, i find the screen flicker for a second every 15 seconds. I'm trying to figure out which app the problem is from. looked in screen recorder and found the problem. apparently from system ui. then start again from the initial step one by one. and the cause of the problem is after installing twrp. I'm on Ui5.1 N986B exyns. i feel twrp has a bug
Now im use back stock recovery and problem has gone
Hi it's been a while since I last install TWRP on SS phone, it got complicated now I have few question, can you help answering?
Open Odin v3.14.1 and place the downloaded TWRP .tar file in AP tab, downloaded vbmeta .tar file in CP tab and click Start - once you press start grab the phone and press vol up + power to force it boot straight in TWRP after flashing

- For this, do I have to press the key combo 1 time only after clicking Start Odin or I have to hold till the progress done?

- I never install TWRP on my phone, do I have to follow this step?
-If yes, do I have to install that file right after TWRP first boot (when odin completed flashing)
And finally, does it support android 13?
Thank you so much
