Just got Android 13 when I heard about Poland getting it last night. Got my hands on this F/DS so why not try root?

I patched the ap and noticed 2 files were not lz4 so I deleted everything but 2. Boot and vbmeta. Flashed in Odin, factory reset and have root. So, no worries about not having root in 13.

Well good mate but now my samsung pass is not working when I made root and unlocked bootloader. How to solve the problem? Please help
Is the phone rooted? What Android did you root it with? What program did you root with?

There are a few instructions that are used for problems like this: Clear the data of the app in question and delete the update. Turn off any option it has. Delete its account. If the problem is not solved, restore your phone to factory settings. If not, backup your data and then flash it
If the problem is still not solved, you should use similar ( samsung pass ) programs

Hi buddy
Does your Wi-Fi and Bluetooth not turn on?

Can you tell me exactly how you rooted Android 13? Can you put it here to download the files and programs you used?

Well good mate but now my samsung pass is not working when I made root and unlocked bootloader. How to solve the problem? Please help
I researched this issue and found it to be related to Knox being activated after rooting for security reasons.
There are solutions for Samsung corporate programs such as Samsung health, but so far no solution has been found for Samsung pass. Now I want to try to solve this problem according to similar solutions. By editing system files and build.prop file. But it is a difficult task and it takes time because the operating system may have problems with editing these files every time and it needs to be flashed.

Hello
One question. I never root a phone, but now I have two Phones (POCO F5 and A71) and i am thinking to root my A71. If I root the A71 it is possible continue have updates for the New Android versions like 14, because samsung don't go send more updates in this model.
Thanks

Root doesn't enable you to update your firmware to unsupported versions by Samsung, but you to install custom ROMs .

    Ok ladies and gentlemen I finally got it working, and here's what I had to do

    You'll need to install 7zip or something that handles TARs and LZ4 that you can grab from github it was the second result on google for me

    Once you've patched the AP file in Magisk Manager and copy it back to your pc, Open up that tar file and delete all files except recovery.img and vbmeta.img

    Then open the original prepatched AP file in 7Zip and extract the boot.img.lz4 then take that file and drag it onto the lz4.exe from the lz4 utilities

    you should now have a nice clean uncompressed boot.img, put that back onto the phone and patch it with magisk manager, you should now have magisk_patched.img copy that back to the pc and rename it boot.img and put it in the tar file from earlier so you should have boot.img recovery.img and vbmeta.img

    With just these 3 files in the tar you dont have to worry about wiping your data again and it will patch pretty fast

    Open up ODIN again and select AP and choose your new tar file and flash it

    Then shut down the phone fully and power it on while holding vol up till you get to the warning screen about the unlocked bootloader let go of vol up and press power to continue and you should find that it boots properly now and magisk manager will show that magisk is installed.

    Okay, this method is working for me except the last, but i solved it:
    I patched the AP file in Magisk Manager, copied back to my pc, opened the tar file with 7zip and deleted all files except recovery.img and vbmeta.img.
    I opened the original prepatched AP file in 7Zip and extracted the boot.img.lz4 and dragged it to lz4.exe.
    I copied the uncompressed boot.img to my phone and patched it in magisk manager, copied back the patched file to my pc and put it in the tar file, flashed with odin (before flashing I unticked the auto reboot), after it's done, I pressed and held volume down and power and when the screen went off, quickly changed to volume up and power button and hold until the bootloader warning appeared, I released the buttons, and I pressed the power button to continue to samsung logo, and my phone got bootloop (after a few seconds).
    After it restarts and the screen went off I quickly pressed and held the volume up and power button until the bootloader warning appeared again, pressed the power button, and after the samsung logo appeared, quickly pressed and held the volume up until the stock recovery does not appear -> stock recovery -> mount system -> reboot to the system -> hold volume up and power button (!) -> bootloader warning - press power button to continue -> samsung logo -> press and hold the volume up until the recovery does not appear -> recovery -> reboot to the system -> wait until the bootloader warning (and do not press and hold volume up and power (!) ) -> press the power to continue -> samsung logo, and wait and the phone is booted and working with magisk root. If you reboot the phone or shutdown it, magisk root is still working without pressing volume up and power.

    @BK
    Thanks for the share, would be appreciated if you can mention how to update over OTA when we have root the phone. Thanks.

    The reason it's not mentionned is simply because we can't, we just need to download latest firmware and patch it with magisk.

    topjohnwu stated ( and i tested it myself ) that if we flash the latest OTA it will brick the device, which is logic.

    We need to patch the latest firmware with magisk, if we go from a rooted environment to a non rooted it will brick.

    I hope i cleared your thoughs. :cowboy:

    I've tried rooting several times to no avail, I've unlocked and flashed everything with the patched magisk setup, I'm using the SM-A715F BTU firmware as that's what my phone was beforehand

    When i try and do the volume up boot then release at the warning screen it just does a reboot cycle and never boots I have to force it it shut down and boot normally

    I cant even restore phone to a point where SafetyNet validates so no Pokemon Go and such

    Ok ladies and gentlemen I finally got it working, and here's what I had to do

    You'll need to install 7zip or something that handles TARs and LZ4 that you can grab from github it was the second result on google for me

    you should now have a nice clean uncompressed boot.img, put that back onto the phone and patch it with magisk manager, you should now have magisk_patched.img copy that back to the pc and rename it boot.img and put it in the tar file from earlier so you should have boot.img recovery.img and vbmeta.img

    With just these 3 files in the tar you dont have to worry about wiping your data again and it will patch pretty fast
