How To Guide [A23][GSI]How to install Project Elixir Offical GSI On Samsung A23 Or Any Another GSI

Search This thread
Thanks @MRX7014 and @Zaisxda. I can now use GSI ROM's, I've tried AOSP, Project Elixir, ArrowOS, Pixel Experience (Plus), LineageOS, crDroid, I'm currently using Pixel Experience (Plus).

I installed it as follows:
1- Go into download mode and flash SkyHawk from Odin.
2- Flash the rom file (xxx.img) from ShyHawk.
3- After rebooting, go into download mode and flash recoveryysamsung.tar from Odin.
4- Format data from recovery.
U are welcome sir ;)

this didn't worked on my device it's just bootlooping I even tried some other methods reccommended on comments but none of them work can you please help as fast as possible? I don't have any working phone other than my galaxy a23

I am sorry about that. If you can't turn on the phone, you can go back to stock rom.

- Download stock rom from https://samfw.com/
- Extract stock rom
- Download Odin (I'm using Odin3_v3.13.3_3B_PatcheD)
- Open your phone in download mode
- Select files from Odin and flash the rom

You can watch this video:

If your phone is a different model, the roms here may not work. I don't know. I hope you solve the problem.

Hello,
Is there a way to get GSI installed on Samsung Galaxy A23 5G SM-A236B?
I understand how to do an OEM unlock, how to unlock the boot loader.
By looking at the firmware, I see it has a super partition thus the GSI system image won't fit on that super partition and I am afraid it's not flashable with odin or prefferably heimdall as I'm on linux. I managed to use heimdall to retrieve the device PIT and it really only has super partition and not the system one.
Do you know a way around this?

Greetings

Peter

    i have downloaded both Evolution X and Project Elixir but both didn't install, they both just continue to boot to the recovery. My A23 is the SM-A235M/DS
    You have to flash twrp, wipe, flash the rom. And then you have to reboot in download mode and flash the stock recovery and format data. That works for me.
