Hello, I'm facing an issue where the Galaxy S23 Ultra is not able to start up properly. I'm also not able to get into Download Mode nor into the Recovery Mode again.
My Galaxy S23 Ultra is not really in a boot loop. It's more that the screen is black and it's booting up occasionally/randomly when playing around. Having the cable connected to the PC and pressing [Vol Down] + [Power] to get into Download Mode or [Vol Up] + [Power] to get into the Recovery Mode is not possible anymore as the smartphone is not reacting and then the screen gets black again.
I never faced such an issue and was always able to solve issues but this time I'm quite perplexed. I would very much appreciate any tips or ideas what could be done in such a case.
It actually happened when I installed System-RW T05 and accidently did a factory reset.
At this point my colleague (who owns the smartphone) wanted to get his apps data back. Therefore he did a restore with TWRP but wasn't able to login with the screen lock password even he used the correct password. Then he took an old Backup and restored also the boot partition. At this point the smartphone wasn't able to boot up or to get into download or recovery mode again.

Neither is possible nor you need to overclock the CPU. You literally have NO app or game that will utilize the power of this CPU. -
7ChangeLog T07 for S918B (System-RW)
This is a full ROM with Mods included forS918B. For all other variants check this
- Based on S918BXXS1AWD1 Android13 May 2023 security patch OneUI 5.1
- ROM Tool on essential fix auto setup zygisk including SafetyNet & GPay fix (no needs to change any option manually)
- ROM Tool added support for old Magisk (25.2)
- Magisk updated to Magisk 26.1
IMPORTANT : In case you dirty flashing ROM,
- In case your existing ROM have different version of Magisk from one you are going to Install (Check Changelog for Magisk version info) then first restore magisk app in case you have hide (rename) it and then uninstall magisk app from app drawer. After ROM installation, you may have stub (Magisk sortcut) for Magisk, you can click there and update. If no stub available, download Magisk apk from download and Install apk manually. If you are using same version of magisk then nothing requires to do for magisk.
- Select "Prepare device for dirty Flashing" from ROM Tool and straightway flash this verison of ROM with Odin. In case you are on older version of ROM and said option is not available in ROM Tool, manually delete *DrKetan* module(s) before flashing ROM
Installation : Notes included in ROM download area
Setting up device first time after ROM installation
- Check for Magisk app, if not available/only stub available, Install Magisk apk (get proper version from download area) → Open & allow run additional setup if asked for → Reboot
- Open ROM Tool from app drawer and Apply essential fix and Reboot,
- After reboot you can check SafetyNet and should be passed. You can use this app from playstore or This from Github to check SafetyNet (ROM Tool will offer to install this during Essential fix too)
- Now you can further setup ROM a per your liking.
- Since A12 new Magisk (Zygisk) doesn't have buil-in Module repo, You can get standalone module manager from here (ROM Tool will offer to install this during Essential fix too) For more details and queries about new magisk ref this
PS : Plz don't install any other mods for SafetyNet, All queries related to Magisk/SafetyNet will be ignored if already explained above
TweaksPro version requires 5.1.05 or up

Known Bug/Tips/Fix
Download : DrKetanROM.com
STATUS : Online
PS : This is a fully customized ROM and for end users only, ROM or any part of ROM not allowed to redistribute,modify or to use as base to prepare new ROM.5
You should able to downgrade as far as bootloader revision remain same. For example base of T07 is S918BXXS1AWD1
Here 9th digit is binary revision (1 in above value)
You can downgrade to other version as far as this 9th digit version remain same5
debloat all apps that are not needed
disable all apps that cannot be debloated and are not needed
limit background processes for all apps you think are needed, either:
- via the app's settings in Android
or
- via the battery settings in Android (there are more options, e.g. disable the background processes completely)
install magisk module "universal-gms-doze" to limit the background processes of google-play-service
set power mode of phone to "light" (battery and device maintenance -> battery -> advanced battery settings)
make sure in the developersettings that mobile data is turned off, if connected to wifi
assign a static IP in the wifi settings, if possible
disable "switch to better WLANs" in the advanced wifi settings
activate "WLAN energy saving mode" in the advanced wifi settings
disable "Automatically connect to Hotspot 2.0 WLANs" in the advanced wifi settings
in connections -> mobile networks disable 5g ("connect LTE/3g/2g automatically")
Tasker:
Create profiles to e.g.:
- With DND enabled (10pm - 7am for me) and screen off, enable airplane mode and reactivate when screen is turned back on.
- With VoWifi available turn on airplane mode/wifi and turn off airplane mode again when wifi is not connected
I may have forgotten one or two things, but these are the most important steps (for me)
It depends of course on your use of the phone, whether the steps are useful3
Straightway Flash T07 (Use CSC file from stock firmware of your region if it is not from OXM grousp)
Reboot to TWRP (It should auto reboot to TWRP after flashing ROM, if no, do manually) → Factory Reset/Format data as per your liking) → Reboot to System → Install Magisk apk → Open and complete additional setup → Reboot → Apply ROM Tool Essential Fix
PS : You can find all details in Installation Guide. -

Dr.Ketan
ROM OS Version: Android 13
ROM Kernel: Stock (pre-rooted). Source code (samsung) here
ROM Firmware Required: Stock Samsung specified version
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2023-02-0913Installation, Important Infos & Download
Installation : State of the art Installation procedure.
- Only needed is supported device + Unlocked bootloader.
- No needs to have device rooted/Installed TWRP/update device to specific base
WARNING
Before you root your device you must be aware that
- This will void warranty.
- As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help.
- There are many features stop working when you unlock bootloader other than S pay/Pass like Samsung Health, Secure Folder, Galaxy Watch pairing issue, Issue connecting old gear watch (S3 or earlier), Google Pay etc but ROM is patched for all these mentioned features. Still you may trouble using some bank apps and these may fixed by adding these apps to Magisk Hide
- There may be some knox features there which you may not able to use but I can't list those as I never used. Just Google It
- Patched featurs are working today when writing this, No idea if it may stop working next moment/tomorrow or later
- Also to note, once you root, you can't go back to "pre-rooted" state completely. It is one way!
- OTA won't work on rooted device.
- ROOT with caution.
- On unlocking bootloader you will have warning screen while device boot and as of now no workaround to hide. Though it can be removed with re flashing stock rom + re locking bootloader
- You can unroot & Relock bootloader after flashing stock firmware, but still your warranty flag remain 0x1 and most of countries it still voids warranty. Also after unrooting & relocking bootloader, some knox features never work again.

12Important Announcement for T06 release
I am holding T06 because of Magisk 26.0 stable release just released. T06 test version is based on Magisk 25.2, one can install (update) to 26.0 easily but ROM Tool and Tweaks will have multiple things broken because of some changes in Magisk 26.0
I will re-release T06 with built-in Magisk 26.0.
@ Test users of T06 : Please don't update to magisk 26.0 else you may have multiple things broken.
