How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S21/S21+/S21 Ultra - Magisk - Full Step-by Step Video Guide
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 бер 2021
- Hello everyone,
Here is a complete step-by-step video guide of a very safe method for rooting the Galaxy S21 (or any other Exynos-based S21 such as the S21+ & S21 Ultra) and installing Magisk onto it.
Just make sure you follow all the steps in the correct order and that you don't skip any!
Also, make sure you download the correct firmware file for your device variant (you can find out very easily the variant/CSC by using the Phone Info app from the Play Store).
It works only on Exynos-powered S21 devices (S21 - S21+ - S21 Ultra including all 5G versions), not on Snapdragon versions.

This is what I needed! Thank you! Most video out there doesn't explain it in detail and I can clearly understand.
I managed to install after 5 hours, did everything right except unlocking the bootloader in the beginning.. Thought I bricked(literally had the error img and couldn't connect.. In the end, somehow, I retraced my steps and it worked out.. On a mac book pro with the parallel Windows machine, great tutorial, still valid🤣🤣
Only complete guide I have found so far. Very good
Hey bro, what's the best rooting file for this device? I'm trying to recover my pictures and videos from a factory reset with a software... But it requires the device to be rooted.... Can it be unrooted back to normal?
Please don't root samsung mobile because if you root it, your device knox security will be void and it can not be recover back
Hola
Excellent video very well done. All your download links are very real and very good. I had no problems using your download links. Your rooting methode absoulety worked for my S21 Ultra. Thank you for your instructions on rooting.Thank you very much.
For anyone with Android 12 having issues of Magisk not showing up after using Odin, be sure to use the LATEST version of Magisk available to patch the AP file. That's what worked for me.
@K.L COMEDY yes twrp would be best
thanks for the heads up just had this happened going to reflash the new magisk with my ap file, then reflash whole phone :)
@K.L COMEDY Yes.
Mine didn't appear, used root checker and it was positive(is it wrong if I had to install it manually afterwards?) Did on a macbook(parallel app).
A Very well explained video on how to do this, I can't thank you enough!
tank you so much i was trying to root my phone for A YEAR and i finally did it, you the best continue making content and never give up i hope you have a good life, god bless you bro for this
A great video! very well and concise, Thanks alot. It worked like a charm!
This is an excelent how-to. Very well explained. Easy to follow and MOST IMPORTANT ... it works - no BS. thanks a lot.
omg!! ive been waiting for this moment! finally got root on my phone! thank you so much, even tho it wipes all the phone but still was worth it!
Hi. Does this work on Android 14?
I tried it on S21 Ultra Android 14 Exynos. After flashing through Odin 11:57, on first boot, it loads to Android Recovery (in yellow) with error "Can't load Android system" (in red), which is not seen in this video. Select the "Factory data reset" and wait for it to reboot to Startup Setup. Copy the Magisk apk and install again. Magisk will ask you to restart.
Thank you very well explained. Done with an S21 FE Snapdragon, remember unlocking the bootloader so the AP don't get blocked by the OEM.
Can I ask your opinion on recovering data. My phone was factory reset a week ago and my last backup was 1 year ago. Will rooting my phone allow a software such as disk digger or fonepaw to find all my deleted files ?
What are installing the android stock Rome and removing the Samsung rom still keep the 120 refresh rate at the highest resolution?
I am getting Fail at odin when i have added everything and pressed "start" please help me as ive been spending the past 2 hours trying to root my phone and downloading the necessary files
Now this is how you do a proper tutorial, bravo.
Have developer options but cannot find OEM unlock option on Samsung Galaxy S21+ 5G; can i proceed?
Hola tengo un s21 ultra de at&t México y no me da la opción de desbloqueo ( OEM ) ni en modo dowloading ni en opciones de desarrollo, que se puede hacer ?
A year later this guide is still accurate so long as you follow it precisely using the same exact versions he used. Using a more recent version of odin will not work at least not when I did it
is this still available?
What does it happen if you try to use "Factory data reset"? It will keep the latest firmware or somehow go tho the initial firmaware? I suppose it will keep the last firmware, but just want to have a confirmation from you. Thanks. Great video, btw!
In the last step that is carried out when starting the phone, I received an alert message in red from the software
Hello, when patched ap-file and copying back i can't find the location given on magisk.
it worked perfectly here on the galaxy tab s7, thank you very much
Hey i need ur help, i downloaded the last version of firm but doesn't contains a CP file to flash via odin, that is correct?
@@acidoxlxayo??????
@@millyyeasmin7904 lmao
and can i install twrp on it? because i cant find any version for 21+ :(
I cant get to the OEM unlocking on my S21, is there a work around?
How come the magisk still exist after flashing with odin ?
After flashing with odin, mine got deleted & have to sideload. After that still not rooted. Anything wrong ?
Why is it not mentioned that you must have Microsoft visual c++ 2008 redistribution package and visual c++ 2010 redistribution package
absolutely perfect! thanks you sir.
I have problem with in this process, when I use magisk patched file as AP it won't pass modem.bin... I'm stuck in odin waiting modem.bin... do I need to wait so long? or could be possible that the file broken during patch file copy process or any idea? ^^ thanks ^^ (I am able to flash with stock AP file it is working, just patched file stays on modem.bin)
MY S21 ultra xfinity doesn't go into download mode. When I hold power and up keys I get the recovery menu . I choose reboot to downloader . Press the side key. The phone restart instead. It is pissing me off

i have a problem transfering Ap file and magisk from PC to phone.Ive tried both ways (ADB and normal tethering) but nothing works. Help pls
Thank you so much you are the only one who helped til the end
Hi, I have done everything but Magisk was not there after. Any tip what I should do?
Main reason against root for me is that bank apps often tries to detect if device rooted, and if it is, it wont work.
I'm definitely sure there are workarounds, but never dug deep enough to find some info about that.
Question from me would be, how I can test apps for their behavior, before rooting device, emulators?
After i done all the steps the magisk app do not appeared installed ay my phone, thus the device wasn't rooted...why? I have done everything correclty
There is no OEM unlocking under developer mode on my s21 fe
can i just use this for my s20 ultra because your other tutorial isn’t working for me
very calm and explained well, thanks bro

Hello, I wanted to ask if when I go to root, all the data on the phone is deleted?
hey i need help im stuck on the bootlloader part and it says its downloading something it doesn't go to the warning and continue screen anyone else have this issue please help!!!!
I have a carrier bought S21U from T-Mobile (still carrier locked). It's now on Android 12 with One UI 4.0
Mine is a Snapdragon, will this work? Do you have any updates on the process?
how do you get the ap file from the phone back onto the computer?
how does one sideload their "about info" app? I see no method to move it, google brings up nothing, and I am assuming a random "phone info" .apk online is not suitable. I know CSC means "country specific code", but my service provider software version shows "OYN", which Frija doesn't pick up as valid, and "TMB," which I can only assume means T-mobile, my provider, and Frija does pick up that code as valid. Is this my CSC, or is this simply a coincidence? It does, in fact, match my kernel.
The #1234# dial method doesn't work for unrooted phones and boot menu doesn't show a valid 3-letter code.
Will just unlocking the bootloader will void the warranty? I just want to keep the bootloader unlocked
How would you back up and restore app and data etc?
I have a s21 ultra live demo 998B, bit 3. I need repair IMEI, it's possible?

Does it work on Snapdragon version ?
One of the things needed that he listed was windows 10. Will windows 11 work?
Does this work with Android 12.0 UI 4.0 as well?
Hi I updated to Android 12 and flashed everything accordingly using Home CSC as well, and my data was kept but magisk was not installed even though the app is. I'm not sure what I did wrong?
