Question [SOLVED] Samsung A12 / SM-A127F/DSN - Root problem

[hesen_89]

Not exactly sure, maybe physwizz confirm, I presume, you tried install kernel file by Install button in TWRP. I tried it too, failed it too and
a) you have done backup in TWRP, thats usual reason to setup TWRP - you just in case backup those special partition and if you done it, restore boot from backup will help
b) really not sure about that, but Odin, button BL and flash BL file from original stock ROM.

Can anybody advanced confirm? Maybe it can be helpful to know exactly, what for sure are kernel (AFAIK part of boot partition), "bootloader" and "boot" partion, BL button in Odin

must be from the recovery ap section

patch It will allow you to turn off DM-Verity immediately and trouble with vbmeta.

Rooted, working for me, but just curious... will allow means, there are more steps to be done?

 

[honzazkrumlova]

can't do another type. yes i did that type. but twrp does not work and does not mount any unit. install fails. I returned everything. deleted

if TWRP fails with any mount, still, you can reboot from TWRP to download mode, ok?

 

[hesen_89]

no problem. everything works just have a twrp problem. It doesn't matter, but it won't be bad. There is a list of programs that are not needed. is optional

You need a dev to build one

 

[physwizz]

When I first got the phone I asked on telegram fir someone to make a twrp.
3 devs answered the call.

Hello all,

same problem for me.
I have a SM-A127F/DSN with the baseband version A127FXXS4AVB2 (ITV).

I tried few methods but I'm still not able to get a full rooted device.

method 1)
I followed steps described in post #6, with this method I'm able to get the device rooted but I cannot acces to the /system folder to manage system-app or to move user ones in the system.

mount: /system not in /proc/mounts

method 2)
I tried to install a twrp custom, I don't remenber which one, and install magisk from twrp, but totally fail

method 3)
I tried to install twrp following this guide with method3 but I can only see a black screen after step 10

Is there a way to root properly this device?

regards

Thanks, followed the post and I was able to root and install orangefox, but still no luck with system folder mount, maybe I will try a downgrade of the firmware

1. Did you root using the full ap file patched with the special a217 magisk? (This contains the patched boot.img and vbmeta.img)

You can't downgrade firmware
