[RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP for Galaxy S10 5G (Snapdragon)

[afaneh92]

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

 * Your warranty is now void.
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or your getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

- Go to Advanced > Terminal, type: multidisabler.​

If vendor complain about free space left on device, will attempt to resize vendor. and it ask to - Run multidisabler again!.​

Note:

 To disable encryption manually:
You need to replace fileencryption=ice with encryptable=ice only in userdata line (maybe rest lines) in vendor/etc/fstab.qcom
To avoid stock recovery restoration manually:
Rename system/recovery-from-boot.p to recovery-from-boot.p.bak

- Encryption not fully working.

This is the wrong one, this is for exynos, we are dealing with snapdragon here.

Just got my G977P, getting info on how to root Android 11 G977PVPS5EUA4, trying not to brick my device. Any tips on how to do it the safe way? First time trying to root Snapdragon device.

Absolutely! You need to first unlock the bootloader, so go into developer options and enable OEM unlock. After you enable it, reboot to DL mode by volume down + power. Select the power keys that allow for unlock and confirm with the displayed key press. After, follow this thread's guide. Then, download Magisk from the official github, it should be from topjohnwu, it will be in apk format, just rename it to zip. Flash in TWRP and you will be good to go!

Thanks! Is it safe to update to latest official software update before installing TWRP?

 

[razercortex]

Yes, it shouldn't matter.

Confirmed working on G977P, so fast and easy, thanks for the support!

Man I'm at a loss, I've followed this guide and nothing makes sense in terms of.
I'll get twrp installed just fine but the second i reboot my device it'll either throw me back into twrp or I'll get stuck in "Android is starting" and nothing will happen for hours. I'm on G977p and my bootloader is unlocked

Did you flash vbmeta? Also, starting android for the first time takes a really long time.

I did yes. I'll try this doing this guide once more later tonight. Could be quite possible I'm missing a step or didn't pay close attention to one since the others with the same Device on this thread reported a success

Any rough idea to how long the starting Android could take before i stop it?

 

[chadandchew]

Is the SM-G977N korean model supported
Android 11
Do you know how to access OEM Unlock in development. There is no sign of it on this phone.
Thanks

Any updates for Android 12 G977PVPS8HVE1 for SM-G977P (Sprint)? I can see the official firmware already out, but waiting for working version of TWRP.
