From next version of ROM, I am going to change in ROM Tool. Now it will auto enable Zygisk (Instead of Magisk hide currently) and patch accordingly for safetynet.
Still I will include Magisk Alpha instead of Stable Magisk. Remember, Magisk alpha means it is same version of latest Magisk but it have both option like Zygisk (New method) or Magisk Hide (old way), So users will have liberty to choose any. ROM Tool enable and setup for Zygisk by default, If you want to use Magisk Hide method, you have to setup and fix safetynet on your own.

Is anyone else using Gmail and noticing that notifications are not coming through? I've tried deleting and re-installing the app as well as removing my account and re-adding. I am not get any push notifications.
Just bumping this up as I got no response, is anyone having this issue? I'm gonna try a new clean flash but was hoping not to. I did a clean flash to begin with. For some reason I have not found a solution. I can get notifications through Gmail for my exchange account but not for my Gmail account.

Installation and Download aand Notes


Important :


- 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. (hope in future we can get it working on tripped knox device)
- OTA won't work once you root device.
- ROM Tool permission : Files & media - To save and read files, Calendar - Tool needs some time monitoring to avoid using RT immediately after reboot. Special access for accessibility service - Since Android 12 it requires for QS panel custom Toggl e.g. Reboot to recovery



Installation :


Read ChangeLog post for Installation instructions (link on post #3)

PS : Who can handle consequences of dirty flashing, they never need to ask this question in forum. If you dirty install then handle it yourself .

Check the Installation Guide pdf - Option 1: Dirty Install, that's what you are up to.
It's not recommended, but it also worked for me and I haven't noticed anything wrong yet.

Yeh I already have, other ways I wouldn't be able to flash so1. I tried to flash so2 on twrp but it gave an error, wasn't able to flash it. I wondered it's cos I haven't done all the steps I did to flash so1 or is there something else maybe corrupt file or something else.

Ohhh, much appreciated for the fast reply, Doc.
Forgot what MTP stands for, something about File Transfer (Media Transfer Protocol), so I thought writing on the microSD is broken :)
When will S03 be available to download? Is it still in testing mode now- available to testers only?
Thank you

Update2 on TWRP bugs :

I have fixed reboot to recovery menu. MTP fix seems not good and clash with Reboot to recovery so at presently leaving it. I have talked with Ian and acknowledged him where is the issue as he is not having N20 with him, I m sure he will fix it in next version. N20 have SD card so it's not much issue. Reboot issue is more serious as it may throw error/or other issue if TWRP not corretcly rebooted.
I am pushing modified TWRP in zip.

Thanks for patience & support.

Followed instructions for clean flash with Factory Reset from S01 to S03. All is working really smooth. Even able to still retain my TMO csc features for typing indicators and chat settings through SMS/MMS. Only thing left is getting SPay on the watch working, Safetynet passed when I first set it up but when I pushed my TMO CSC data I broke it I guess and have to figure that out. Nothing to do with the rom though all is good.

Edit: Reboot, cleared data on Pay and now its working on watch again.

    After some workaround found a way to use TWRP on A12, I am in touch with Ian regarding this for final fix and public release.

    Edit : Made backup of SB1 and worked like a charm, yet restore not tested though.
