[CLOSED][RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP for Galaxy S10e (Snapdragon)

[afaneh92]

Thx for release.

Do you have an idea to edit/remove warning screen at start?
The solutions I found apply to exynos models that include an up_param partition mapped to sda5, which does not exist in snapdragon versions.

Thanks

As you said "exynos".

I recently unlocked my bootloader on S10e G9700 Snapdragon and installed [SM_G970U/U1/W_Snapdragon] by jrkruse and your 3.5.0_9-1_afaneh92-Q recovery.
Started debloating and have boinked the rom a few times in the process and had to use the restore.
I have noticed on using the TWRP restore that some things do not get restored (or not backed up correctly in the first place)
The things are: Call Logs, Text Messages, Ringtones connected to apps (The ringtones are there, just not connected to app).
I had used Flashfire on my previous phone and ran into bugs like this also.
Any Clues why?

@afaneh92 and/or others ​

Is it possible to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, root via Magisk, and then still maintain encryption for the phone?

I assume that TWRP would no longer be able to access or write to /data

But if I'm already rooted, then I might be willing to sacrifice almost all future TWRP features to keep my phone encrypted.

Yes you can keep encryption but you cant access data.

 

[dallas87]

is it there a youtube video that describes how to do this?
I'm somehow new to android and don't understand exactly the steps for this.
My final result I want to be having Lineageos installed on my phone [S10E]

thanks

Thank you so much @afaneh92 for fixing the link to the device tree!

Was trying to compile a customized version of TWRP for SM-G9700 & SM-G9708 and this definitely has helped immensely!

@afaneh92 - on step 6, it doesn't bring up TWRP, instead I get the screen shown below. The TWRP version that I burned into AP with Odin successfully on the s10e snapdragon was twrp-3.5.2_9-1_afaneh92-R-beyond0qlte.tar (the latest version from your link above - April 2021). I used "adb reboot recovery" to go to recovery, as I couldn't get the recovery key combinations on the powered down Android 10 s10e to go to recovery mode. I was expecting to see the TWRP screen. Am I doing something wrong ?

There are other recoveries available for the s10e snap. Should I try one of them instead ? I'm looking to install one of the A11 custom s10e snap images that are available here on XDA and need a recovery to do it. Since I'm familiar with TWRP I was hoping to use that one for this, but it's not necessary.

You need to be quick, once device reboot and screen goes black press vol up, bixby and power

@afaneh92 Your key combination instructions worked, but the same recovery screen came up, so I went to the TWRP website and got the most recent snapdragon version and burned that, and tried again (using the key combination), but the same recovery screen came up as shown above. I've included the log tab screen cut from Odin in case you might see something in there. Thanks.

@afaneh92 I think that you misunderstood me - your key combo method works for me to bring up recovery ! Thing is, it's not TWRP I know how to boot TWRP image on other device that have fastboot support, but the S10e doesn't have it. Do you know of any way to run the TWRP image other than burning with Odin ? I suspect that other recoveries will have the same problem running with my device. Sadly, It's possible that I might not be able to do anything with this bootloader unlocked S10e snapdragon phone.

I did notice a message at the bottom of the recovery screen which might show a possible configuration error on my device.

#Reboot Cause is [init:1 ]#
E:[libfs_mgr] Unable to disable quotas on /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata because /system/bin/tune2fs is missing
Supported API: 3

#MANUAL MODE v1.0.0#

You need to be quick, use my recovery if you are on android 10 or later.
If you dont know what "you need to be quick " and you are late to boot into twrp after device reboot then you cant boot twrp.
Dont spam the thread. Find someone faster than you to press the keys.

@afaneh92 Turns out there was more to it than just being quick. I got the correct procedure from the mods on the unlocked snapdragon channel on telegram and it worked like a charm. Sorry for bothering you, I should have gone there to begin with - my bad.

Do I need to patch the recovery image in magisk to get root? I don't get the part about flashing magisk apk in recovery, twrp doesn't open apk.

No, you can install the apk as zip. Or just rename it to zip and flash
