Is TWRP recovery 2.8.7.1 compatible with firmware OF8?

I'm trying to root and flash TWRP on the latest T-Mobile firmware (OF8) without tripping knox, but I'm not sure if TWRP is compatible with it. I don't want to flash it through Odin and have it fail then get in a bootloop/brick.

I'm using 2.8.7.1 on OF8 without issue. :good:

so am i ...

Yes its fine. I'm using on OF8 as well... You HAVE to flash a different kernel tho from what I understand to avoid the bootloop. UniKernel is what I'm using. And its FAST!

You have to flash a kernel such as Unikernel/Unibase before you start delving into the recovery. If you dont, you'll get stuck in a very annoying loop.

Marshmellow via TWRP Flash

Good day,
I can't seem to find a packaged zip for Marshmellow (maybe prerooted) that is flashable via TWRP, is there such a file?
Or is Odin Flashing pretty much required for the update.
I'm rooted, knox tripped, and have TWRP flashed

IDK if it's the easiest way, but you can flash stock Samsung firmware and then root it again.

Need help installing TWRP with Magisk

Hello everyone!
I just rooted my Galaxy A30 using Magisk. From what I have understood in my experience rooting this. This phone doesn't have a ramdisk so Magisk basically only boots when I do the recovery key combo. So I was wondering, Is it possible to install TWRP on this device since Magisk is basically hijacking the recovery to run. If it is possible, could someone guide me on how to install it while preserving Magisk?
Thanks in advance

The only way is installing TWRP via Odin. And then flash Magisk.zip

Can I use custom recovery (twrp) after rooting Samsung M21 with Magisk?

Hello,
I just want to make sure if I can flash twrp after rooting my Samsung M21 with Magisk or not? This device has ramdisk in boot, so I guess it's not a problem if I just flash twrp after rooting, am I wrong? Is there anything I should take care of?
I read the official topjohnwu guide to root with Magisk, and it says that custom recoveries are not recommended, but I don't understand why if the ramdisk is in boot.
I want to flash twrp (and disable encryption) to avoid an accidental bootloop or something, where I lose my data. So in case of a bootloop I can still access my data. (btw. I don't understand why stock recoveries can't recover data... while they're "recoveries")
I'm not an expert or anything, I rooted some phones already but that's all.
Thank you in advance!
