SM-A426B recovery - Samsung Galaxy A42 5G Questions & Answers

I was wondering, before I get in any testings of my own, if someone had already built a working recovery for this phone?

Not that I know of yet we're all sill rooting via magisk until a kind DEV has some time and patience to port one from an existing A series possibly. (HINT,HINT) LOL.

[Q] Install Linux?

Has anyone been able to install Linux on the Galaxy Note Pro? I'd really like to install it, but haven't found success using the Complete Linux Installer (my tablet is rooted). Apologies if a thread relating to this already exists!

My guess is there is no working kernel for this device, and since we don't have a working device tree to build kernels or even complete kernel source, it's probably not going to happen anytime soon.

That is a shame .. this would be great for it. Does anyone know if anyone is working on this, or who could (and how they might be encouraged)? I would love to see Linux on this!

I have not heard of anyone working on this... Unfortunately the developer support for this device is very minimal. We can't even get a basic AOSP ROM much less a full Linux distribution. Until the price comes down and some devs with a bit of skill pick this up there likely won't be much besides stock based ROMs.

[Q] How to switch from CWM to TWRP?

My friend currently has CWM recovery but it's harder to interact with and shows a lot of errors sometimes. How can he switch to TWRP? Does he have to factory reset and then root and then twrp or is there a simpler method? Also he is interested to have a custom rom on his phone. Any suggestions? And also how can he get a rom? Is it as direct as other devices? Just flash in twrp? Pls n tq in advance

"CWM is known for stability and simplistic..." [well from my view]. It's the build he has. Try updating the recovery version and see if it helps.
But if you still want TWRP, then head here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a850/general/tutorial-install-cwm-twrp-lenovo-a850-t2642431
This tuto will ONLYmad work if you have the correct build number.

oh well my friend wants to switch mainly because he got error while trying to make a nandroid backup so I suggested he get twrp, but I see it's on the bugs posted by the OH so naybe I'll let him try that first. Thanks friend! Also any idea where to get custom rom for this device? My friend wants an Xperia rom...

Haha, funny question, if you ask....:silly:
Lemme get this straight:
I know A LOT of ROMs for this phone, but...
I know NONE that would work.
Because I assume you aren't doing anything to the kernel, it's like living on the edge where you take things dangerously. As a bro, just play with XPOSED and do your best to pimp your stock rom. I had enough for about 15 modules.
However, if you found one that's work, hook me up.:laugh:

Well a tale from a citizen full of noobs has to be told...
You are among the luckiest person in the world to have an ROW (Registered Original for Worldwide) model of this phone, I assume by you able to flash kernels. We, received models of ALMOST ALL models of Lenovo phone here (Malaysia), that ISN'T SUPPOSEDLY SHIPPED OUT FROM CHINA, shipped here. So EACH (yes, each from a batch of shipping ) phone has a SLIGHT difference in build, firmware, libraries, SystemUI.apk versions, and the difference is, just a little numbers on the file hash that's crucial to it, makes ROMs, recoveries that is designed for that model TOTALLY NOT COMPATIBLE with the phone.
The culprit is this >>
ILLEGAL SHIPPING!
Undercovered by (not confirmed) the GOVERNMENT itself, sometimes...
So, we unlucky fellows stuck with stock ROM and some of them are CRAPPY CHEAP JUNK OF IMPOSTORS that catches the eye of its victim. Original models, ya say, is RIDICULOUSLY PRICEY because of the government's mother-effing TAXES. That's my story.:crying:

TWRP

So there's only 1 guy in the whole world that makes a custom recovery? Need to get more devs working on this.

Is that you offering to help?
You don't actually NEED twrp to flash custom ROMs.
Yeah. CWM and Philz are long since gone. You have any idea how advanced TWRP is? Who should we get on the case and how will we properly incentivize them?

No. I wish. Sadly I'm not a developer, just a flashaholic. Not sure what the point of my post is but maybe it will get some minds thinking. Also discussion about it.
perhaps a payed version of TWRP to incentivise developers?
I'd be ok to pay up to $10 for a working functional supported TWRP
hell, I've donated hundreds if not thousands over the course of years to developers for their work.
I know Blu sparks works on twrp as well, but I am unsure if he owns a p4
I think it's time to put our money where our mouth is and get more Devs working on these projects.

TWRP isn't having funding issues. Lead developer is having a baby and partition logic changed significantly on Pixel 3 & up on Android 10. We don't need to put our money anywhere - we need to be patient or fix it ourselves (far beyond my skill set)

Need custom rom (without gapps) for Samsung Galaxy A31 !

Can someone help me im trying to install any rom (without gapps) on A31, but it seems that none of the custom roms have A31 as their supported device and im looking for any custom rom and TWRP because i can't even find TWRP. Is the phone just hard to custom rom or what? i searched for 3 hours and coudn't find anything worthy of trying. Thanks and sorry for my bad english !
The Phone doesn't has custom roms or twrp for now.
You could try building one yourself using the source code of SourceCodeSamsung
I find very odd that for Galaxy A30 and the recently launched Galaxy A32 has tons of custom roms available however for A31 it seems to be forgotten by the community, nothing other than the stock rom by Samsung. No official or unofficial roms available, that's very sad.

What runs on a32 could run kn a31 with some mods as they're practically the same device.
A31 still don't have any custom rom? Is there an A32's that could work?

The A32 port I found in /e/ Foundation forum (its Google-less, ok?) but I doubt it will work and you could brick your device, be aware of that. There was a guy you asked a version for you phone and he unnoficially created a version for you phone, not sure if he still does it there.

I think they deleted because I had it bookmarked and I'm not finding it anymore. It's a pity if they did it, the thread had a lot of devices that you couldn't find anywhere.

This site does it with almost every device but doesn't have a rom available for them, it tends to just change the name of the device and the instructions are the same.
Even the tutorial is dated, same for the images used.

I don't have the url anymore since I've switched to another PC and deleted tons of things from the old one, but I had it bookmarked in my account there and it is not available anymore. If I knew they would remove, I'd backup everything - but we never expect such thing to happen.

I own a S10+ and thankfully there are roms available for me, but I know must be tough not finding any rom for your phone. I know somebody who owns a Galaxy F62/M62 and haven't found anything yet.

Hi the issues is Samsung mass producess so many phones they can't even keep track of them and they eventually get forgotten Bc I've been struggling to find custom roms for my Samsung a31 but nobody even develops for it but I realize now that they are slowly trying to develop as the device losses support.

Digiland DL1036 root method?

Good day all!
I was looking for a budget tablet to replace my Amazon Fire 7, and stumbled across the Digiland DL1036. I'm very pleased with the quality for the price. It's fast, clean, and has a great and responsive screen. Anyways...
I did manage to unlock the bootloader. Now I am looking for a successful root method that way I can install a custom ROM should one become available. I am ADB capable, so if someone has been successful with rooting this tablet, I'd love to know your process so I can complete the root. I thought about trying Magisk but I'd rather not use a spoof. Thanks!
To flash a Custom ROM it's NOT required tablet's Android gets rooted before. All what is needed is a suitable Custom Recovery like TWRP.
