WTF? why am I unfair? I'm not demanding him to release something! at the moment mostly Ultra users who want to root their device find this thread, think it's still up to date and by the looks, most of em are noobs and therefore end up with issues. So many people complain about the Camera app FC'ing. This thread is causing more harm then good atm.

I agree. He is very capable.

However it is as if he's always doing it mostly for himself and not really for the community. All of his threads are in the same situation.

I repeat, that he's one of the best out here, but I wish he was more of a noble teacher also instead of being just the one who comes up the first with the great ideas and solutions.

I also think that he's a bit limited by the language barrier, although he's pretty decent in English.

I respect his knowledge and I'm saying this not because he doesn't do it, but because he can.

That's why i wrote instructions in my thread how to patch the files for yourself and not posted a file for folks to flash. :)

And they helped a lot of people including me! I was also a noob who had camera FC issues and didn't know what to do. Also after I asked you if you could provide instructions for updating without loosing data and you delivered. :good:

Boys, the tar File from geiti is NOT for the newest firmware, thats why you all are getting cam errors. You have to patch the boot.img file yourself!

Extract it
Repack it to a tar file
Patch it with magisk
Flash it via ODIN in AP slot


If you need the newest magik patched kernel for DBT, ask via DM. I don´t know how to upload here anything, lol:silly:

Thanks buddy, works for me now!

Hello guys
I got this S20 Ultra 5G for testing and need to return it sooner or later. Will not hurt that much as I'm not happy with that device.

I just installed the patched kernel and I didn't even install TWRP. Going back to stock is a must and I thought it's quite easy but it looks like I'm too stupid. ;)
I just need original kernel but I'm not sure how. Help would be appreciated. Thank you

Update to my problem

Short update:
I tried to flash the actual official firmware but I got an error. Didn't get thru. I think I need to flash the original Kernel first. Any help? Thank you!

Update - Problem solved
using an older FW version let me update the ROM to my phone. So it's unrooted and with a locked bootloader again. Thanks

    Like the title says here its a Magisk Patched Kernel for the S20 Ultra 5G G988B exynos Variant.

    Since the S20 needs Canary Magisk and latest Canary Magisk Manager have problems with Patch images (Manager Crashes) i patched the boot.img manually :D


    Soon i will make a custom kernel too. so means i will then convert this thread to the one for my Custom Kernel but for the moment it will be used for the Stock Patched Kernel.

    Tomorrow i will add S20 5G and S20+ 5G kernels too :eek:


    How to install:

    1. Enable Developer Settings
    2. Enter Developer Settings
    3. Enable Oem unlock
    4. Reboot in download mode and unlock the bootloader (boot with button combo in download mode and not with adb or recovery!)
    5. Bootup the phone and setup it without accounts (Make sure the phone is connected to the internet or prenormal will be triggeret)
    6. Reboot again in download mode and flash the tar with the kernel with ODIN.
    7. Reboot in recovery mode and make a factory reset / wipe
    8. Bootup again the phone and setup it again. this time with accounts when you want and make again sure the phone is connected to the internet over the simcard or wifi!
    9. Install the latest Magisk Manager Canary done :D


    Download: From My Synology NAS

    that's a good news. booting rooted S10 was a pain in the a.. heh

    why can't the system be mounted read-write even with root? is it due to the changes samsung made to the partition layout?

    Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G (SM-G988B)

    because of changes made by google not sammy. logical partitions are read only but i am now testing somethings with custom kernel so can be we can soon write in system :D if so i can then atleast make roms for it and twrp but then only super.img can be flashed in twrp and not zips since we dont have access to the system for the moment from twrp

    Hi guys.

    This patched magisk .tar sorted out my camera issue after I rooted the device.

    I'm on UK BTU firmware ATCH

    Please don't hate me if this kills your device, but I hope it helps!!!!!!

    can we reboot the phone normally after rooting or do we still have to use the key combo to boot into rooted system?

    Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G (SM-G988B)

    s20 can boot normaly since root i back in boot.img and no more in recovery.img like s10 :victory:

    Ok guys.

    This should fix your camera with the ACTC firmware.

    Flash the kernel boot.img from OP first.

    This file is a zipped tar file. So make sure to flash the tar file!!!!!!!

    Hope this helps........
