Question Can the a52 5g be rooted?

[gee2012]

And... the stock rom from my SM-A526B/DS is not anywhere online

Try frija and download a stock rom for your device. Then unpack cp.

Any phone can be rooted, as long as you can unlock the bootloader.
Please read the instructions on the page carefully and don't skip any text. All of it is important.

Thanks for this.

I'm stuck, because there is no "OEM unlocking" option visible in Developer Options. Any ideas?
My phone is the Galaxy A52 5G (SM-A526U1), running Android 11.

Didn't happen to me, but I heard you had to wait one week after connecting your phone to Wi-Fi for the first time ever. How new is your phone?

OK, that could be it -- I've had it for about a week, but I did a factory reset a couple days ago. I'll report back on whether the OEM Unlocking option appears in a few days.

I have had mine since the end of Sept, and mine does not show OEM unlock period. in Dev options.. Maybe it is because it is a T-Mobile phone, and the fact, the I have only had Dev options enabled for about 4 days...

I don't think unlocking the bootloader of a carrier-locked phone is possible. See this thread. You might have to call T-Mobile and ask them to unlock your phone.

I figured as much. But I do remember, some phones you could still see the OEM unlock option even though it was grayed out. I wonder if it will be possible when it is paid off.

So, we have someone who has succeeded, in the end, in rooting the a52s 5G ?

I see "OEM unlock" option on developer options.
Hope someone helps us with this.

The main purpose I want to Root, is that I should be able to install a call recorder, and record calls.
Because in my region "Sweden", call recording is not visible.

Yes same question. Anyone managed to root SM-A528B?

If you factory reset after rooting do you lose root?? Or do you have to flash the factory rom with, you know the tool thingy thingy, I forget the programs name.

This is what you care about. This is not a custom ROM, you are literally downloading the stock ROM and patching Magisk on it.

I did exactly as described in this. Now I have bootloop.
SM-A528B
Firmware wtih Frija: A528BXXU1AUI8
Any help on this, someone successful rootet ?

To fix the bootloop download the stock firmware again and flash it without making any modifications using Odin. As for why you got bootloop, it is not clear which step failed.

That's right. It fixes bootloop when install Stock ROM, my plan was to get root. Still don't know if anyone successful rooted.

Hello friends.
I also can not root the Samsung M52 5G. Something is missing for rooting those devices. Patched Magisk is not working.

Hit the build number 7-10 times to get to the hidden developer options. Settings:about phone:software information then you'll see build number

No "OEM Unlock" option ever appeared in my Developer Options menu. I've had the phone for a couple months. My phone is not carrier-locked, it's an unlocked A52 5G (SM-A526U1).

So, guess I won't be rooting it. Fortunately there's a lot of good no-root options available nowadays for ad-blocking and such, so I've put together a setup I can live with.
