Samsung S7 Bootloop Without TWRP [SOLVED]

Hi everyone,
I am looking for a solution to recover my Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930FD) from a bootloop, without TWRP. I have read through many posts to find a solution, but not have worked for me. Please read the full details before offering a solution.
- I rooted my phone, successfully, using CF Auto Root (via Odin). It was working fine for several days
- I installed Hide My Root from the Google Play Store, which did not work
- I installed XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha4.apk
- I installed TWRP Manager from the Google Play Store
- I installed BusyBox from the Google Play Store
- I downloaded xposed*.zip (xposed-v86-sdk23-arm64.zip) and xposed-uninstaller*.zip (xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm64.zip)
- I installed TWRP. I did a lot at once, so some steps are a little fuzzy right now.
- I booted into recovery mode (TWRP) and completed a backup for the data, to the SD card.
- In recovery mode, I then selected BOTH zip files for install. Once that completed, the phone restarted and stuck at the Samsung logo.
- I booted into download mode and tried CF Auto Root again, with no success.
- I booted into recovery mode, but TWRP does not seem to appear. It goes to the default Android Recovery with the following options:
> Reboot system now (did not help)
> Reboot to bootloader (did not help)
> Apply update from ADB ("Update from external storage is disabled")
> Apply update from SD card ("Update from external storage is disabled")
> Wipe data/factory reset (did not help)
> Wipe cache partition (did not help)
> Mount /system (did not appear to do anything)
> View recovery logs (lists various logs)
> Power off (turns off phone)
Specifications:
- Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930FD)
- Dual Sim
- International
- Exynos 8890 Octa-Core
- Android 6.0 (Marshmallow)
If you need any additional information that will help you determine a solution, I will attempt to provide to you what I can. I am only looking for possible solutions from the point in which I am at now, not what I did wrong or the correct way to go about doing it. It's a little too late for that now, isn't it?
Thank-you in advanced,
Brandon

SOLUTION
A friend of mine suggested using Smart Switch, which failed, but I was able to come up with a solution from that. Here are the steps I took to bring my phone back to life.
1) Download Samsung Smart Switch and run it
2) From the top right, select "MORE," followed by "Emergency software recovery and initialization
3) Fill in the required information, including the model number and serial number of your device, followed by the OK button
4) Attempt to complete the process vis Smart Switch first
Note: Keep your phone in a cool place, since the screen does stay on the entire time.
If this fails AFTER the download completed (it did for me):
5) Locate the files that were downloaded. On Windows this will be on your system drive under "Users\*user*\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp****", where tmp**** contains random characters. The easiest way to find the name is to sort by date created or modified and look for a large file with a similar name. Now locate the folder starting with the same name. Within this folder there should be 5 files. Copy them all to an alternate location. You will only need the AP file, but you may wish to use the others.
6) Disconnect the phone from your computer
7) Uninstall Smart Switch, Kies, and the Samsung Drivers (if installed)
8) Download the latest version of Odin
9) Restart your computer and reboot the phone into Download mode (Vol Down + Power + Home) => Vol Up on prompt
10) Reinstall Samsung Drivers
11) Run Odin and click the AP button and locate the file you saved, starting with "AP_"
12) Plug in your phone, click Start, and wait for the process to complete.
I hope this helps anyone else looking for a solution, as I have not found this anywhere else online. :good:

[GUİDE] [ROM] [10] How to install Pixel Experience ROM for Redmi 8 [GSI]

First of all, the download link of all the files required for this "ROM" is taken from the "xda developers forum" posts.
I was constantly experimenting with GSI roms for Redmi 8. I was able to install the Pixel ROM on Redmi 8. I don't think you will have a problem if you follow the steps I shared with you one by one.
I do not take responsibility for the ROM. RESPONSIBILITY IS ENTIRELY YOURS.
Not working
-Face unlock
-Radio
-VoLTE
(You need to make a setting for the camera, notch, LTE Mobile Network and auto-brightness. I told you how to make the settings.)
NOTE: A computer is required to make this ROM setup. It must also be installed in ADB on your computer.
Note: You can install this ROM Google Camera as apk. Unfortunately, there are no features such as Portrait, night mode in the original camera application of the device. However, you can use it if you install it as an apk.
Please download that files:
Download - Pixel Experience ROM GSI file
Download --- Sky Hawk Recovery file
Download - Permissiver V5
Download -Certification Patch for Redmi 8
Download -Treble overlay for Redmi 8
Download --- Lastest Magisk-v20.4
Here -Get the TWRP Official for Redmi 8
Download - vbmeta.img
Note: Please charge your phone at least 60%
First, take the necessary backups as your phone will be completely reset.
1- Unlock your bootloader. For unlocking follow this: http://en.miui.com/unlock/
2- Copy all the files to your SD Card (PixelExperience_ARM64AB-10.0-20200118-2138-GSI.img, SHRP_v2.2.zip, Permissiver_v5.zip, Certification_Patch.zip, Magisk-v20.4.zip, treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi8.apk)
3-Enable USB debugging. Connect the phone your computer Then copy the twrp.img and vbmeta.img files to the adb folder.
Note: If the name of your twrp file is not twrp.img, please set its name to twrp.img.
4- Go to your computer, open adb folder in cmd, write that:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
5- Now we will go to the restart phone command. At that moment, you should quickly hold down the volume up key and power button of your phone. Enter this command:
fastboot reboot
Then, hold down the power button with quick boost and turn on twrp.
6- Install Magisk-v20.4.zip in twrp.
Then restart the phone. After the phone reboots, check if Magisk is installed. Once you see it installed, reboot the phone in recovery mode.
7- Install SHRP_v2.2_olive.zip then reboot recovery.
8- Now find the wipe button and tap it. Then press the format data and confirm by typing yes.
9- Then tap wipe again and click on the wipe button at the bottom right.
10- Tap the wipe again and tap on advanced wipe. Select the Dalvik, data, cache, system partitions and reset them.
11- Now return to the main menu screen and tap flash. Select your SD card in the lower right section and tap the PixelExperience_ARM64AB-10.0-20200118-2138-GSI.img file. Then select it as system image and install it.
12- Return to the main menu and come to the flash section and install the file Permissiver_v5.zip.
13- Then go back to the flash section and install the Certification_Patch.zip file.
14- Return to the main menu, tap wipe and complete the wipe from the button on the bottom right.
15- Reboot the system. Your device will either boot in fastboot mode or be bootloop. (If you see it open normally and no problems occur, you can skip step 18.)
16- Go to fastboot mode.
17- Connect the phone to the computer and open the adb folder on cmd. Type:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot reboot recovery
The phone will reboot and turn on. Please set up the phone and turn USB debugging back on.
18- After doing setup and enabling usb debugging, reboot to recovery mode and install magisk.zip. Then reboot the phone.
19- Install build prop editor(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor&hl=en&pli=1) and root browser(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree&hl=en) from the Play Store.
20- Open root browser and allow root access then go to your SD card and find treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi8.apk
21- Copy to treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi8.apk on Root Directory/system/overlay/ folder.
22- Select treble-overlay-xiaomi-redmi8.apk file on overlay folder and tap the three dots in the top right and tap the properties.
23- Click on the Permissions at the top bar.
24- Select like this photo (link: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/p...VrSOGT_V9Q2bzgy5IuE9nIfPslILJ1Vz=w429-h904-no ) and click apply then reboot system.
25- Open the build prop editor and allow root access. then tap the 3 dots in the upper right and tap new.
name= persist.camera.HAL3.enabled
value= 1
Set it to and save it. Restart the system.
26- Go to the dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#*. Tap Phone information and set "set preffered network type: LTE only." Then reboot system.
27- Finally, if you want to fix the appearance of the screen notch go to
developer settings >> display cutout and select corner cutout.
That was it. Please note that I am not a developer, so I cannot resolve any errors. I believe that if you apply them like me, you won't have a problem. I will be waiting for your comments. Have a nice day.

Query before flashing
Hello Boss,
on checking the system by "Treble Check" app, it is showing that it is A-type System partition. And the ROM you suggested is AB type. Is there any thing i should worry about before flashing.
I am currently using Lineage OS (unofficial), and following functions doesn't work on it.
Finger print
VOLTE
Radio
face unlock
What about this ROM functionality.

At first I tried installing A-only on my device but it didn't work. It worked when I installed A / B. So please try A / B GSI. Because the device you have is probably A / B, not A-Only.
Finger print is working and face unlock is not have in Pixel Experience ROM.
VOLTE and Radio is not working bro.
I will list all the features that work by edit the post today or tommorrow bro

This file exists to integrate the model of the device into rom. I don't know much about google play and you can also install this and permissiver_v5 with other gsi roms. These only for Redmi 8.

Before system-as-root was used only on A/B devices but now all devices that ship with Android 9 must use system-as-root. Because of this reason you need to flash A/B roms on A-Only on these devices. As you can see from this page's device list, Redmi 8's image type is A/B so you need to flash an A/B image: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki

All sensors working

i tried it and the sensors didn't work. i needed to flash stock rom and then pixel rom over the stock rom to get it work. seems logical, had no issue so far except the camcorder. when i record a video, lets say i recorded a video for 10 second. but when i play the video, it becomes 1hour video and the sound doesn't sync with the video. video stays frozen the whole time and plays normally at the last few seconds. i tried other gsi and had the same issue. is something wrong? any known solution? are you facing the same problem? if not, then which camera app you are using? thanks in advance because pixel experience is working now after following ur steps

Yes, there is a problem in this regard. Unfortunately, I could not solve this problem. I usually use Instagram cam for video. You can try bro

I use havocOs gsi. It has same problem. Solution:
1. record a video.
2. do not close camera app.
3. open video from the camera app not from gallery.
4. play the video once.
if that plays then you can open that same video from any app.
try that, might work.

it works sometimes but not always.. Currently I am using Havoc OS and it doesn't have a gallery app. So I downloaded "Gallery Go" from playstore and when I try to open the video from the camera app, it opens with gallery go app.
to be noted, i have added some commands in build.prop..
media.camera.ts.monotonic=0
debug.stagefright.ccodec=0
persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1
i don't know what these do but these commands were mentioned somewhere to enable camera2api..
am i missing something?

What doesn't work
- Bluetooth
- 4g network and VoLTE (Fix below)
- Brightness slider and auto-brightness (Fix below)
Fixes:
- For brightness: Open settings -> Go in "Phh Treble Settings" -> "Misc Features" -> Scroll until you are in backlight menu -> Select "Force alternative backlight scale" and "Enable auto-brightness overlay" -> then deselect both and reboot
- For 4g and VoLTE: Open settings -> Go in "Network and internet" -> "Mobile network" -> Tap on "Preferred network type" and select "LTE" and then reboot
Note 1: If you find a fix for bluetooth describe it in comments, I will update the guide
Note 2: If you fing other bugs tell me in comments, maybe I could help you (I'm not the developer of the rom)
​IMPORTANT ADVICE:​I am not responsible for any damage caused to your device by not following the steps or negligence at the time of this process, all the steps were carried out and tested on my personal device and are confirmed, my device is Redmi 8 4/64
Installation Steps - All the files you need are HERE​
Note 3: I did the installation coming from Mui 12.0.1 stock (flashed in fastboot with Mi Flash) and there was no problem in the installation process or in the boot process
1- First make a backup of all the necessary information in case something goes wrong you can easily recover, Charge the battery at least 80%
All your data will be deleted during the process
2- Unlock the Bootloader if you have not already done it or do not know how to, follow this post: http://en.miui.com/unlock/
3- Before continue following steps estract on pc "system-arm64-AB-vndklite.img" from "AncientOS-R-Society-v5.2-ARM64_AB_vndklite-Iron-20210227-vanilla.zip" and activate USB debug in phone settings
4- Reboot in fastboot and connect the phone to the pc with cable
5- Install on pc minimal adb tool (zip at the bottom), flash the TWRP recovery typing " fastboot flash recovery ", now drag twrp file near the command, then vbmeta typing " fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta " and drag vbmeta file near the command. Finished the procedure type " fastboot reboot " and hold volume + on the phone until you see the recovery screen
6- Scroll on the slider at the bottom of the phone screen to access in the TWRP
7- Go to Wipe -> Format data -> type "yes"
8- Go to Reboot -> Recovery
9- Go to Wipe -> Avanced wipe -> wipe dalvik, data, cache and system
10- Go to Reboot -> Recovery
NOW YOU HAVE TO TRANSFER ALL OTHER FILES OR IN THE INTERNAL STORAGE OF THE PHONE OR IN SD/USB WITH OTG CABLE
11- Go to Install -> Select the storage where you have files -> Install img -> select "system-arm64-AB-vndklite.img" and flash it (Extracted from the zip)
12- Wait and then go to Reboot -> Recovery
13- Wait and then go to Reboot -> Recovery
14- Wipe -> Advanced wipe -> select "system" and click on "Repair or change file system" -> Resize system
15- Wait and then go to Reboot -> Recovery
16- Install -> Select the storage where you have files -> Flash "GSI-BUGS-FIXER_11_Q.zip"
17- Wait and then go to Reboot -> Recovery
18- Install -> Select the storage where you have files -> Flash "open_gapps-arm64-11.0-nano-20210130-TEST.zip"
19- Wait and then go to Reboot -> System
20-Configure phone and enjoy your new rom
Note 4: Rom is pre-rooted, you only need to install magisk apk, file below
Note 5: I reccomend you the best gcam I've found for Redmi 8, everything works except slow motion, link HERE
Thanks for the attenction​

zas far as i know bluetooth works on vendor from lineageOS 16 from this forum, there are the same bugs on every rom with original vendor.

Why U use my fixes and manuals without request to me? Your manuals wrong and makes bootloop. Before stupid copy-paste read instructions.
All roms booted without any permissiver. Certification patch retarded and not supported Android 11.
GSI FIXER is rom and vendor-specified.
Number in name = Android in rom
Letter in name = Android in vendor

This needs to be done after every reboot?

Nono, only paste it in termux with root access and reboot, then you will solve the problem forever

Don't use any my GSI-BUGS-FIXERS from XDA. This fixes retarded and no more supported!
Don't say to me in Telegram chat about bugs if you use fixes and instructions from any users of XDA except me.

I used the gsi bugs fixer in Telegram

@Estatè Mosconi If you haven't already I suggest you take a look in your PM inbox.

[HOWTO][SM-T590] Samsung Tab A 10.5 (2018) GSI installation + twrp + prevent bootloop + magisk + gapps + safetynet​
This is my first tuto for the SM-T590 Tab. I´ve tried to install GSI for days. The results was bootloops. So I asked some people, readed some stuff. And voila it´s working. So I would like to share my experience to you.
First of all I would like to say thanks to all the people who helped me to understand some things. But a BIG THANKS goes to @UDPSendToFailed . Thank you for your patience with me .
It should be clear but I would like to write it down here.. I am not a professional and collection my knowledge from other sites and threads. So I am not responsible for data loss, device bricking or other stuff. Thank you.
Prerequisites​- working ADB and fastboot, ubuntu suggested​- odin and odin patched version​- all necessary files: twrp.img; stock FW (latest); GSI Image (a64-binder); Magisk; Disable-DM-Verity.zip​
Enable developer settings and allow OEM unlock​- go to settings, system, about the phone; click several times on build-number​- go back to main, then more settings, developer options​- toggle USB debugging + OEM unlock​
Prepare download mode for odin​- connect the tab to your computer and run the following codes:​
Code:
adb devices
there should be a message to authorize adb to your device​
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
now we should be in download mode​
Flash stock FW​- download latest FW​- open odin (unmodified), choose FW files (AP, BL,CSC)​- click start, be patient, if finished it will reboot to system, close odin​- walk through the setup​
Flash recovery/twrp​- open modded odin​- select "AP" and open the recovery file​- hold volume up and then press start (if you´re not it will boot to system and overwrite recovery)​
Flash GSI​- so now inside twrp..​- follow those steps exactly; very important; otherwise you will end up in a bootloop​- go to "wipe" and select format data, confirm with "yes"​- reboot to recovery again, otherwise twrp wont have access to internal storage​- again to "wipe", then "factory reset"​- go back to "install" section, toggle "install zip" to "install img"​- select your GSI image and choose "install to system"​- when finished go back to "wipe" section​- select "Advance Wipe" then select "System" and then "Repair or Change File System"​- click on "Resize File System" and swipe to confirm​- now go back to "install" section and flash first Disable-DM-Verity and if wanted Magisk24.1 afterwards​- if also needed you can now install gapps​
Pass Safetynet​- boot up system and open magiskmanager​- go to "modules" section and install "hide props config​- download "termux terminal"​- open "termux terminal" and type su; grant root​- type props and choose option "1 - Edit device fingerprint"​- choose "f"​- choose "26 - samsung"​- choose "85 - sm-t590"​- confirm with "y" twice!​
Congrats. Now your GSI should boot up. If you have any questions or suggestions please dont hesitate to let me know.
P.s. please be patient with my English, I am from Germany.

Hello there,
to bes sure... what was your exact step for resizing system partition? It was the minor reason for me that the os wont boot up. In my case I´ve only tested AOSP right now.
Maybe your bootloop is caused by the os itself. I am now not at home for about 6 weeks but I´ll give it a try and will let you know ASAP.
You can try AOSP GSI for the meantime.
Grüße auch aus DBT!

my Problem was the wrong ROM i used the arm ROM but for the sm-t590 you need the a64 (binder) ROM OK, its working fine but i head a Problem with my MAC Adress every boot i have another WiFi MAC adress i tested AOSP crdrom and many other but all the same, in the developer Mode the Random MAC is still disabled! how can i fix the MAC adress?
i try it with busybox and ifconfig ..... but i get allways a denied

Hey,
I am sorry to let you know that I am not a developer and so it is not easy for me to understand which part of OS will cause the problems with the mac adress as in your case.
But I think I´ve heard about that problem in the past.
Glad to hear that GSI is working for you right know.
Greetings.

and you have no problems with the wifi? or you have not noticed the changing MAC address?
can you tell me which versions you have flashed
stock Rom Android 10?
and which ASOP version?
--> then I try that times like you

I would really like a custom ROM without ONE UI, but I carry my tablet around in public. Can I set a password on this GSI or will there be a bootloop? And I think that the roms from the T590 will be installed on the T595, since the difference is only in the LTE module? (Well, about the same as on the Nexus 9 LTE / WiFi?)

i have a password set up but i had to deleting keystore.mdfpp.so and keystore.msm8953.so from /vendor/lib/hw after this you can set a password without bootloop!
The only problem I have with it is that my MAC address keeps changing and every now and then the connection drops!
