Recovery Problems
Most recovery issues can be solved by attending to the following issues.
1. Did you root using the full ap file patched with the special a217 magisk? (This contains the patched boot.img and vbmeta.img)
2. Did you then go all the way through the setup process?
3. Did you download the recovery to match your baseband?

4. Did you hold down power and volume up after Odin says pass?
5. Did you format data, not just wipe?
6. Did you type multidisabler twice?
7. Did you reboot to recovery by choosing reboot from the menu and then choosing recovery?
