Oh MY GOODNESS! Max LEE you are everything. I used this video after I downloaded an update from Verizon. I brought the phone to Verizon they couldn't fix it, I brought the phone to a specialist they couldn't fix it. I watched and followed your video not only did I fix it but I didn't lose my kids' photos from Halloween! Thank you. Sending blessings to you!!!

Mate i cant thank you enough. so, due to my work i had to download an update for s10 over 4g. the download was fine updated as normal, then got the teal download screen.
no reset, or button combination solved it. could not get to the boot menu, or do anything, totally bricked. Tried Reiboot, Dr fone, and smartswitch method. Nothing would even notice the phone was connected.
This was last option and obviously had no way of backing up data, and had a ton of pics i really didnt want to lose. But risked it any way.
I did the method exactly working above, and my phone is now alive and well, and all data is present, as if nothing happen!
I would have been stuck on a ship with no contact or internet for next 3 weeks, so this was an absolute life saver. Thanks again

Thank you much! I had bricked my phone trying to install a custom rom (instructions weren't clear and I'm a rookie) I'm glad to say that this method works in 2025

my phone was fine after rooting for 2 months then the phone restarted because i had that setting on where it restarts itself at night .. after restarting something must've went wrong and i got this boot loop, i don't know what went wrong there but i wasn't able to use the phone for almost 12 hours, thanks again mate!

Hey Max, it definetely worked for me, I just have a question...
When I unrooted my phone IMEI status is NG and can't make a call. Is there any way to keep Certificates safe? I know to restore this certificates root must be done and patch it again using Chimera Tool so IMEI status is OK again and able to make calls.

P.D: I also tried keeping data using HOME_CSC but as you said data gets corrupted and you have to wipe everything.

Thanks for your tutorial and will to help.

Thank you Max Lee. I fix my phone because of you.

Hi Lee,

I did try your method but somehow, in the end, the process failed and now I can't switch on my phone. Got any suggestions to turn it on in order to restart the whole process?

I bought a motherboard for my Samsung S8 phone and discovered that some Samsung applications do not work, such as the payment application, the health application, and Samsung Pass. Whenever I try to access it, a message appears stating that your device is rooted and this application will not work with root. The question is, if I put new software on the device, will these applications work again? ? Please answer, thank you

[wetbone]

i did everything and it showed PASS then rebooted showing data/vendor permission denied. what should i do to fix this problem

[supremeteam]

HELP. it osmehow still tells me that my system is rooted ?!

[adsf]

Hi Max Lee,
I have a Samsung S10+ (SM-GM9750) with HK Firmware (snapdragon) I managed to Magisk root this device using your method. However I realised that I'm using old security patch (1 - April - 2019) and I'd like to upgrade to (30 - May - 2019) Do I flash the old BL, CP and the AP to the new firmware? Love if you can make a video on it😎

[thedarthzilla]
