Hello everyone,
I am a complete noob when it comes to rooting and I am requesting assistance. I've searched the internet and looked through many posts/threads here on the xda forums.
I recently accidentally factory reset my phone (like a dummy) and lost all my photos/videos. I am trying to recover the files from my phones internal storage using a deep scan recovery but I cannot do so without rooting my phone. I've used KingRoot, KingoRoot, Magisk, TWRP, Odin, etc to try and root my phone.
My phone is a Samsung Note 8, Model SM-N950U, Android version 9, basebad version N90USQU8DUE1.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance/guidance!

Hello, I have a question. I am trying to root my (ATT note 3 ANDROID 4.4.4 N900A) which is wiped and I am using this websites instructions >>>http://androidmtk.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-3-sm-n900a . In step 10 , The oldin program keeps FAILING . How do I get the oldin program to pass so that I can root my device . I appreciate your help and thanks in advance.
Look up user Kevin quintana (kevinwithtecg) on youtube. He has a step-by-step process to revert the phone to 4.4.2, root it, then upgrade back to 4.4.4 while maintaining root. I used it and it works perfectly. It will however wipe your phone clean (contacts, apps, etc.), so save those and reup.
I rooted and unlocked my Galaxy Tab S2 about two years ago and was hoping to update from Android 6 to 7, looking around a bit I figured I would try using Samsung's Smart Switch app to update. After updating I am now stuck in a boot-loop and my TWRP recovery install is gone. I still have the recovery file and am wondering what are the right steps I should take for recovering my files and also updating to Nougat while still having root access? I have done a bit of investigating but it looks like my tablet hasn't had much interest for the past year or so and I am uncertain what are the best new methods out there for rooting and updating ota.
This weekend, I rooted my Note 8, and I learned I had no use for it since I really cannot do much with it and mobile data will not work at all. I've tried numerous times to flash everything back to the way things were via Odin 3.14.1, but all has failed. I fear if I continue, I may cause a heard brick. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Maybe. You can check with Frija for latest stock Samsung firmware files and flash it with Odin to your device.
If this does not unroot completely, you may do a factory reset. Keep in mind that this will wipe your data. So backup everything important before.
Or use another method for unfortunately your device, such as described here:

I was rooted and have tried to go back to stock. Mine passes but will not boot. Get a constant bootloop. I have flashed combination files then stock. Keep getting dm-verity fail in stock recovery. Recognized Contributor Jrkruse even tried to help but nothing. Have flashed stock so many times I lost count. Any ideas?
Hello all,
I'm currently trying to help a friend whose Samsung Galaxy A71 got softbricked (bootloop). Since the bootloader is already unlocked, I installed TWRP to backup the internal storage to a PC and then do a clean flash of the firmware via ODIN.
Unfortunately, the device is encrypted (ran on Stock ROM before/Android 10) and it is not possible to access the files.
Is there any way to decrypt and restore the data without wiping/formatting the storage? I already tried to flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.1 but it results in ERROR 1.
Any help is very appreciated!
Hello. I am also interested in this question, is there a result? On March 4, Samsung's stolen data was published, maybe there are already developments on this.
My rooted A71 decided to boot loop a week ago with no warning. It was working fine for 2 years. I was pretty pissed. Like an earlier member I wanted to salvage the data but couldn't read / decrypt the files even when I was in recovery.
After much research I confirmed that I had Google backup enabled and also my Samsung notes was synced to Samsung cloud. So most of everything I wanted was covered. Mainly txts and notes from girls lol.
I did a nand wipe, repartition, and flashed the latest Android with Odin and happy to say the phone's up now. I'm leary of Samsung hardware so I will ensure its backed up and synced to both Google and Samsung services.
Hi there,
I'm looking for a guide to root Galaxy M21 running Android 11.
I tried browsing but wasn't able to find/decide which guide/way was the safest to go.
I need to root the phone in order to access some files created by an app (similar to AppData on Windows OS). So I need root access in order to browse/copy from the filesystem.
So, anything that can do this works for me. I don't need custom ROMS or anything fancy. The easier, the better - as long as it can do the job. I also want something safe (secure) for rooting.
The exact model is: SM-M215F/DSN.
I'm using Windows OS and I'm familiar or can easily understand root & firmware flashing tools.
Thanks very much!
