Software Update is possible even after rooting

[AlienSec]

ONLY FOR ADVANCED USERS

For every tech savvy persons in this group if you have rooted your Samsung phones (Probably normal users won't root their devices) and somehow wanted to consider getting latest software update as it's not possible to get official update anymore after bootloader is unlock which is Knox Tripped

from Regular Software Update . If you haven't known yet here are few steps to upgrade to the latest software updates. 

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE OR ACCOUNTABLE FOR IF YOUR DEVICE BECOME DEAD 😉

Requirements:

• Computer with internet access
• Your rooted smartphone with MAGISK and TWRP recovery installed 

Very important Backup your "Boot and Recovery partitions from TWRP" before beginning the process because your device might bootloop later. But don't panic I'm still here lol

Keep the copy of TWRP recovery and vbmeta_disabled_R.tar because you will need to reflash TWRP recovery later.

• Goto Samfw
• Download Odin latest version not patched and extract it for later
• Download Samsung Driver and install it
• Download your phone model latest firmware and make sure it's of the same region (Check binary version should be same as present or higher version before downloading)
• Extract the firmware to your computer 
• Copy the extracted AP file to your smartphone
• Flash the AP file with magisk "from magisk install>select to patch" 
• Copy the Magisk patched file to the computer
• Open Odin flashtool
• Load the BL file from extracted firmware
• Load the AP file from "The magisk patched file" that you just copied from your smartphone 
• Load the CP file from extracted firmware
• Load the CSC file from extracted firmware and select the HOME CSC file to retain your data "This will not delete any of your apps or files"
• Reboot your phone to "Download mode" and connect the cable
• Click on Options menu from Odin and uncheck "Auto reboot"
• Start flash and once completed reboot to download mode again.

If it's stucked in bootloop now don't cry, cause I did 😅

Don't be an looser and format the phone, there's still hope ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• Flash TWRP recovery with Odin

If you don't remember just try to remember again and use your super power to regain access to your past memory.

• Reboot to TWRP recovery 
• Open terminal to Disable encryption:
  
  - 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!.​
  - Type: multidisabler again. will see - Finished. when done.​
• Select restore option and restore your previously backed up "Boot and Recovery partitions"
• Goto wipe from TWRP recovery menu clear cache

Just don't clear your entire smartphone universe, uncheck all and just check "cache" and swipe to wipe

and don't restart yet if you accidentally did reboot to TWRP recovery again

• Goto mount from TWRP recovery menu and mount every partitions and clear cache
• Restart your smartphone it should successfully as following all the above method as per my experienced worked for me. Check your firmware version it should be to the latest with all your apps and files intact.

If you're stucked somewhere feel free to direct message me. I'll respond ASAP.

Rooting phone then getting update is useless.
Once rooted the knox counter trip by 01.
That means no knox security, no Samsung pay, no Samsung health, Samsung pass applications will work again permanently.
Yes after rooting will get latest software but when application doesn't work. What the use of the phone 📱 😂

[AlienSec]

People who roots knows that in the first place, you don't have to remind others of their choice, you talk about those apps?lol They're not craved by everyone to use and root users don't care,there's always alternative, infact myself I always disable many system apps including google services. Any idea why? Cause you don't have to know and it's my business. Why upgrade to latest version after all? Smoother optimization and improvements that's it, rest we know how to bend them according to our will, just leave that part to advanced users ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bro i am also developer. I root many Samsung flagship phones. I build my own custom ROM and applications.
Stock application doesn't have alternative specially knox related applications.
Rooted phone now a days just a headache. Full of bugs. Rendom reboot. Limited application support, battery compromised etc.
Please try to reset knox once trip then promote rooting 🙏
Thank you 😊
