Which version of TWRP to use with J320F? - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers

Hello there,
I own two old phones and on them I installed TWRP and also custom roms. So I have some kind of experience with twrp.
Now a friend of mine owns J320f and she is dissapointed with Lollipop and the small storage.
I searched the XDA forum but I am not sure which TWRP is the right one.
I found TWRP for J320FN: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...overy-twrp-3-1-1-0-samsung-galaxy-j3-t3628048
But there seems to be differences between F and FN.
I found TWRP for j320P https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...overy-teamwin-recovery-project-3-1-1-t3617806
But there are no experience if it works on 320f.
Since the J210f seems to be very similar (look into topic how easy Marshmallow runs on 320F). Is there a version which is usable?
But porting the j210f rom to j320f made problems with the sd card. So maybe this is a bad idea?
I don't want to brick the phone and I don't want to use warez.
Maybe someone could help?
Are there special hints when I install TWRP? Things to keep in mind to prevent a brick?

Make a full Nandroid Backup. In case something were to go wrong, you can always restore the backup

As @athaarv said, make a backup first just in case.
The TWRP for the FN should work, the major difference between the F and FN models is the F gets dual SIM slots and the FN just had a single slot.

Can you provide instruction on how to disassemble the phone. Also where to order spares from. The digitiser on my Storm is cracked and Wileyfox want to charge me the price of a new phone to replace it.

Eh, sorry mate, I don't know how to disassemble the device and no one else sure as hell knows how to do it (at least on other websites). There are only reviews and unboxing experiences of the Wileyfox Storm and guides on how to flash ROMs, root and recoveries, etc. But some member will help you out, surely! If nobody seems to be knowing the issue, pm a forum moderator so that he/she can guide you to some links/methods. :fingers-crossed: Best of Luck!

Downgrade to android 6.0 marshmallow
Hello everyone, well recently my phone updated to android 7.1.1 and I didn´t like very much, so could help me and tell me if is there a way to go back to android marshmallow 6.0, just like it came when I bought it. Is it possible and does anyone know how to do it?
Okay so im trying to get lineage Os on my phone, this OS isn't working at all i get in bootloops etc. So i tried AOSP extended and i managed to get this working. But when i try to install gapps or try to flash Super su or magisk it returns error 1. The problem is in the recovery probably. So i tried to flash / boot a different TWRP version but all of the other versions give me this error: FAILED (remote: dtb not found). I would appreciate any help i can get i am hardstuck because i cant get a proper working TWRP recovery working and the only rom i am able to flash is AOX but without gapps that isnt worth much.
Thanks in advance.

First of all, what build of LineageOS are you trying to install??? If it is dated 12.07.2017 or 05.07.2017 - it won't work at all. That builds are broken. Use 28.06 or 21.06 build.
Secondly, what TWRP version do you use? I installed LOS via TWRP 3.1.0.0.
Newer version is available now.
And what bootloader version do you have on your Storm. I mean what stock ROM was installed before installing TWRP.

It seems to me, AEX is pre-rooted and comes with magisk pre-installed. When I installed that - only gapps were necessary.
Gapps need to be installed immediately after installing ROM, without any reboot.

I was using 05/07 build so that explains that. Im using TWRP 3.0.3.0 Kipper, but i can't find newe TWRP builds for the wileyfox storm, if you could give me some links that would be great. Stock rom was android 7.1 i believe and bootloader version is 'kipper-N-g2253387'. When i installed AEX via my (probably corrupt) TWRP recovery it says it also flashed Magisk but once the phone starts and i go to the magisk app it says im unrooted and so does rootchecker say. I think my biggest problem is with the TWRP recovery. If you could get me the download links of the versions your using that would be great.
Here you can get TWRP

Thanks to kligli from 4pda
Maybe the bootloader from 7.1-wileyfox is not compatible with Lineage OS.
Before flashing TWRP and LOS, I rolled back to COS 13.1.5 official Wileyfox ROM via fastboot. So I don't really know whether it is compatible or not.

So i flashed the twrp 3.1 and that works, it installs gapps now and no error with lineage OS, im gonna boot phone soon hopefully lineage will start to, i didnt know what gapps to flash but i tried the arm64 because i read it somewhere. But isn't the Storm ARM?
Use ARM64 - 7.1 - nano or pico GApps. Lineage official site said it works even without any GApps, but I have not tried that.
So I just bought a wileyfox storm few days ago and am on 7.1.1 what is the rooting method thanks.

Need Help Rooting (solved)

Hello XDA,
I have been using Samsung phones all my life , Rooted (odin) a lotta phones installed countless custom roms and finally i thought its time for pure android experience . I bought a moto g4 plus from a friend of mine and have been going through the g4 + forum for 2 days now . I have not got the slightest of idea how you root / install custom rom on this device . Its so different from how you do it on a Samsung device so finally I have decided to ask for your help .
Info I would like to share :
1.The boot loader is locked
2.The device is a XT1643
3. 3 GB / 32 GB
4. December 1 , 2017 security patch
5. NPJS25.93-14-13
6. There was a OTA update when I received the phone which I didn't update
As mentioned earlier It looks like I am a complete noob when it comes to this device and I would need all the possible help I can get .
If anybody would be kind enough to guide me through this initial learning phase I will be very grateful and would even share my whisky ( which I usually don't do )
If you need any more information please ask
Thanks and Regards

Hello Mate
As mentioned above I have been searching the forum for almost 2 days before I thought of asking for help . I did go through the thread( that you have mentioned ) earlier today but it looks a bit old to me . The link on how to flash twrp comes back with a 404 error . The last few posts are helpful (as it deals with the same build) but again as am new to the particular device It would be helpful if someone could give me a noob friendly procedure . I am not here to break the rules just trying to learn without bricking my device

Flashing TWRP:
>>> Flashing TWRP or Rooting will void your warranty. Please ask anything before doing, if your not fully confident on what to be done. <<<
Get the TWRP image file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...p-twrp-3-0-2-2-recovery-moto-g4-plus-t3386586
Next, get the adb and mfastboot from https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5jlU9JnLAZGbVU0UzJ3N3p4X2M/view?usp=sharing
Unzip the file and place the image file inside the extracted folder.
Reboot to Bootloader (power off, then press the power and volume down buttons simultaneously).
Open a new command prompt or terminal window and do the following:
Code:
mfastboot flash recovery twrp_*version*_athene.img

Sorry for being so short earlier. We have quite a few members here who constantly post issues without using the search function.
You can try to post I quoted above to flash TWRP. It's fairly straight forward.
Are you planning on flashing a Nougat ROM or are you going the adventurous route and flashing an Oreo ROM? The TWRP version mentioned in the quoted post should be fine for flashing Nougat and 32-bit based Oreo ROMs, but you'll need 64-bit TWRP for 64-bit Oreo ROMs.
Use this as a reference for 32-bit and 64-bit Oreo ROMs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/oreo-roms-table-t3717226
64-bit TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...recovery-twrp-3-2-1-unofficial-touch-t3722206
Once you've flashed TWRP, you can either flash different versions through TWRP itself or through the Play Store app.
As far as ROMs, I'd recommend Official Lineage OS 14.1 for Nougat: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-1-t3522101
And I'd recommend Official AICP 13.1 for Oreo: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...om-aicp-13-1-o-8-1-0-official-weekly-t3731269 (You'll need to download the 20180212 build since most recent builds either have a broken camera or won't boot.)
Any other questions, don't hesitate to ask.

@Ragarianok
I am going to try the Oreo builds as I have never got a chance to try it on my previous devices so I guess I will be using a 64bit version of twrp.
This is what am planning to do :
1. Unlock the bootloader
2. Flash an official version of TWRP
2.a Take a backup
3. Flash a custom kernel through twrp
4. Flash Super Su / Magisk
5. Flash a 64 bit version of twrp using TWRP
6. Flash a custom ROM
Please correct me if I am wrong
Thanks a lot for the detailed guide

If you want 64bit Oreo roms it's a little bit different
1. Unlock the bootloader
2. Flash a 64 bit version of twrp
2.a Take a backup and safe it off your phone
3. Flash a Oreo 64bit custom ROM
3.a flash gapps package arm64 (8.0 or 8.1 depending on rom version)
4. Flash magisk 15.3
If you want to root the stock nougat rom steps 1-4 of your list are correct.

Not quite. You'll want to go in this order:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. Backup
4. Wipe (Wipe/Advanced Wipe; ART/Dalvik, System, Data, Cache)
5. Flash ROM
6. Flash Gapps
7. Reboot
8. Go through setup wizard and let everything settle for ~10 minutes
9. Boot into TWRP and flash SuperSU or Magisk (I would suggest Magisk), then flash kernel and reboot
You'll need to flash the unofficial 64-bit TWRP mentioned in my previous post to flash a 64-bit Oreo ROM, otherwise you'll get an error message when flashing ROM.
You'll also need to use unofficial Gapps since there aren't any official Gapps for 8.1 just yet. I'd recommend either mini or micro here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/unofficial-opengapps-8-1/files/arm64/20180225/
You should be able to flash the most recent Magisk located here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/beta-magisk-v13-0-0980cb6-t3618589
If you do flash a custom kernel, I'd highly suggest Frostbitten: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...s-frostbitten-kernel-moto-g4-g4-plus-t3649155

If it was an OTA update, it looks likely to be more the February 2018 security patch rather than the January 2018 patch.

That is true, however for our devices we have generally been issued the same security patch level regardless of region. It may be different builds for particular regions (e.g NPJS25.93-14-13 for India, Brazil and EU, and NPJ25.93-14.7-3 for US) but they are both the December 2017 security patch.
Regardless, we've still yet to see an OTA newer than December.

Evening ,
Thanks For all the support i finally rooted MY phone
But
I ran into a bit of a problem " Sim Cards Not Detecting "
This is What i did
1. Unlocked My bootloader
2. flashed twrp-3.1.1-athene_shreps
3. Took a backup of everything
4. flashed ElementalX-G4-2.00.zip
5. flashed Magisk 16.0
reboot : No sim cards detected
After which I flashed lineage-14.1-20180219-nightly-athene-signed.zip and the gapps provided
experienced the same error again .
uninstalled magisk and flashed the latest Super Su (V2.82) with no positive results
not sure what went wrong ...is there any way out of it ?

First, I'm a little confused about the fact that you flashed that version of TWRP instead of the one located here: https://dl.twrp.me/athene/
Second, I've never had that happen when flashing, so I'm not really sure what to recommend. If I had to guess, I would say the best route would be to restore your backup and see if the SIM is detected.
I have found at least one thread with a similar issue; might be worth a look: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/fix-sim-card-issue-t3751679
Let us know what happens.

Second, I've never had that happen when flashing, so I'm not really sure what to recommend. If I had to guess, I would say the best route would be to restore your backup and see if the SIM is detected.
I have found at least one thread with a similar issue; might be worth a look: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/fix-sim-card-issue-t3751679
Let us know what happens.

I went through that before posting my question .. the paper does not help .
Is it okey if I flash the twrp that you have mentioned over the existing twrp?
Thanks and regards
DW
Edit : I have restored my backup but still the same issue.
Edit : flashed the official TWRP . still the same results
EDIT : After 3 hours + Countless reboots the issue solved on its own ... I am not sure what really happened.. lol
Thanks for the Support

Samsung Galaxy M30S

Anyone can provide rooting guide for M30S and Need GCam for this Device.
this device is new we have to wait.
Galaxy M30s
To the Moderates and Admins. Will we get a separate section for M30s or can we use this section for it?
I heard that TWRP for M30 is a tricky job due to RMM locking, is it true for M30s as well?
Am also eagerly waiting for twrp

Refer this site for GCAM ytechb[dot]com/download-google-camera-6-2-for-samsung-galaxy-m30s
do let me know if flash is working, as both worked in mine without flash, (GCAM is better than MGC, imho)
Received new update today.

Both versions of GCAM doesn't work in my device.
Anyone knows how to bypass first sim card region restriction from India model?
Is it usually enough to just flash another region firmware?
As far as rooting is concerned we will need a working twrp recovery for our handset then we can root it with magisk . For your gcam query it is very difficult to create a gcam mod for exynos based handsets.hope this will help you.

need a resseruction remix or lineage os rom without magisk and root preloaded.

hello everyone.
i have tried a few custom roms on my samsung galaxy grand prime sm-g530H and discovered the rom that works best with it for me is this version of resurrection remix - https://forum.xda-developers.com/gr...om-resurrection-remix-n-5-8-3-galaxy-t3596669.
the problem is its preloaded with magisk management. even after uninstalling magisk through twrp, i am not able to run some important indian apps (eg - m-adhaar) because they still detect my phone as rooted. i have already tried unrooting but that didnt work. magisk is not able to hide root from some apps that i need through magisk hide and other methods i have read about on this site either.
can some kind soul please provide me a link of a root-free rom of resurrection remix or regular lineage os? preferably android version 7 and/or 8? thank you in advance.
my phone specs :-
samsung galaxy grand prime
sm-g530h - A.P - XXS2BRLI
CP - XXU2BPB2
MSM - 8916
p.s - i changed the update script in the roms to install from boot without magisk but of course it still installs the magisk management.:cyclops:
also - magisk hide is not working for one particular app- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.gov.uidai.mAadhaarPlus
HI,
These Apps have problem with the custom rom too ( normally) and they are able to recognize the custom rom in both case. It doesn't matter rom is rooted or not.
So You have to hide this thing with Magisk or ... .
Is your magisk passed the safety net test successfully?
If it passed then I can't help you anymore and if not try this one:

yes

actuall yes. thats the last rom i tried. but its not stable on my phone. display keeps turning off and phone becomes laggy too. which is why i have mentioned that i need version 7 or 8 n particular.
as for your mention of these apps having problems with custom roms, i am not sure if thats entirely correct or not because i have tried other roms which are fine with the apps but not stable for my phone in particular. so theres my dilemma.
as for magisk test...yes. it passes but hiding is not working in 1 particular app. also my requirement is non magisk and/or non superuser preinstalled rom if i can find one. maybe you could help me with that? as long as the version is 7 or 8.1? coz 9 and 10 are not running properly on my phone ( lags). i am kind of limited in using internet for a couple of days...so its hard to thoroughly search for one. which is why this thread.t hank you for your reply and help

I tried a few Oreo based custom roms and this is the only stable rom that I found in internet . Which is a really great rom but it doesn't work for you because Rom will be rooted during the installation by Magisk 16.3.
I don't have any informations about 7, If You have Telegram Account , There is a Grand Prime 530 group. May be you can get a better help there about Android 7.

thanks a bunch bro. i have tried this already though. along with magisk, it has some issues like powering off instead of restarting and a little bit of heating - at least on my phone - if i remember right. anyway i will check out the group after creating an account on telegram. only 1.5gb of usage left today on my phone. thanks again. much appreciate it. :angel:

hi bro.
after a lot of frustration, i tried this one again with bitgapps. turns out that the other versions of gapps were making it lag. its running nicely on my phone. it didnt have magisk installed or supersu for that matter. but some apps still showing that 'you are on a rooted device' or' you are using a custom rom' msg.
so i installed magisk again only to be able to surpass detction for the one particular app i needed and it worked ( yippy!). but other apps, for eg - whatsapp etc still detect the device as custom rom or rooted. so i am still looking for a way around it.
also particular rom shows the msg on startup saying -' there is an internal problem with your device. contact your manufacturer etc. am just ignoring the pop up msg for now.
the rom ( which is android version 10 ) is running surprisingly smooth and fast though.
i wish there was a way to get rid of that msg and unroot the device completely ( doing it through superuser pro and magisk unintsallation - with uninstaller zip and through manager didnt work).
so well, there it is.
As do i

I saw it on most Android Pie and Q custom roms which i tried. I think it's something about kernel or Rom. There is a video on YouTube about this issue, He solve it for an Asus phone which didn't work for me.
For the record, did you hide Magisk manager and chose a nick name for it before hide root from other apps with it?
yup. i did.

i did hide magisk and gave it another name and checked all apps to be hidden in the hide list.
this video you mention, is it the one where he sets ro.treble to false from true? if yes, then i downloaded build prop but my ro.treble was already set to false by default. i was really hoping that would work. lol. alas! let me know bro.:good:

I don't know this is useful for you or not . By the way it's an other stable custom rom . ( Oreo based ) with 2 small bug but on safety test, CTS profile result was false for me.

I just realized that my phone model is fortunave3g not fortuna3g . It is a long story that why I made this mistake but since there is no official Twrp for fortunave3g I installed the Pitch Black Recovery for fortunave3g then I flashed a Lineage 17.1 for fortunave3g with it. now everything is fine and I don't see the internal problem's notification any more . Also I should thanks itexpert.120 for helping and his custom recovery.
should i try pitch black ?

ah, i see. i used to get error 7 on the latest twrp even after editng the updater script. so i switched to twrp version 3.2.x. then there were no errors while flashing any roms. do you think changing the twrp version or doing it again through pitch black recovery might solve the issue for me? also, please tell me if pitch black is as good as twrp in backing up and restoring. coz i have had to do that a lot. zeeshan(itexpert.120) told me to just ignore the error. hehe. but i cant do that!:cyclops: let me know bro.

Actually the main problem was with my rom not custom recovery . But I had to install a correct custom recovery for installing the correct custom rom.
Pitch Black has the same features even more. Actually It based on Twrp.
I can't be sure, but if you've seen Error Seven when you using the Twrp 3.4 , then there is a good chance that you've installed a wrong Custom recovery. on the other hand I had camera problem which seems you don't have it.

MIUI 12 slow as ...

Hello everyone,
I have my redmi note 7 with which I've kept using MIUI since I bought it. But now the android system weights for 9 go. I think it is insane for a phone, correct me if I'm wrong.
The phone is slow and when I try to erase everything et reinstall it. The system is faster but the system is still heavy.
Do you think rooting it can help solve the issue ? Or may those 9 go of system be caused by some viruses ?
Thanksnin advance,
soad405

Unlock the bootloader and flash a customer without root. You have a big choice, the most one are very fast and stable
Thank you for your answer.
0) what is the weight of a normal custom system once installed ?
1) Do you mean to flash a rom and still using the original kernel ?
The last time I flashed a system, it was on a Galaxy S2.... Did the things changed ? At that time we had an important risk to brick the phone under gingerbread version of Android (that version had some kind of bug) .
2) Are the risks still high today ?
I looked a bit through the list or roms on xda and the lineageOS seems to come out as the lightest rom.
3) Is there a room that is more stable than the others ?
4) Is there a rom that is kept updated more than the others ?
5) What about the android security updates once a custom rom is installed ?
Sorry that is a lot of questions but I need an update since my galaxy S2
Thanks in advance,

First, when you unlock your bootloader your phone make a factory reset. Then you have the choice which ROM. lingeos, havoc, pixel os are stable and have the last security patch. Then you have the choice with or without gapps (Google apps). In every thread is a how to and the recommend gapps. Orange fox is a very good recovery. And brick risk is small. Sometimes I had a softbrick with testing around kernel and modules, but it easy to fix. Make a backup with the customer recovery before. The weight I don't know in the moment. My daughter change the pattern . In the forum is a old how to unlock and under development is the recovery. You will find it. Have fun
