How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S21/S21+/S21 Ultra - Magisk - Full Step-by Step Video Guide

[@thihan]

This is what I needed! Thank you! Most video out there doesn't explain it in detail and I can clearly understand.

[@wontons399]

Have developer options but cannot find OEM unlock option on Samsung Galaxy S21+ 5G; can i proceed?

[@tutruelove]

same issue, did you solve it?

[@zbrahh]

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.

[@mixeoxlaurge]

@K.L COMEDY yes twrp would be best

[@mixeoxlaurge]

thanks for the heads up just had this happened going to reflash the new magisk with my ap file, then reflash whole phone :)

[@zbrahh]

@K.L COMEDY Yes.

[@blackwolfie8326]

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).

[@motor5ito406]

​@@blackwolfie8326 just reboot or reinstall magisk kk

[@blackwolfie8326]

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🤣🤣

[@tutruelove]

you didnt unlock the bootloader? and still rooting?

[@Darkplays_vr]

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

[@nemhiszem8920]

Unfortunately, the magisk application does not appear for me. And I checked with rootchecker, the phone is not rooted. Any help ?

[@robing8705]

I have the same problem... everything appeared to go to plan, but after the last wipe the magisk app didn't appear in the app drawer for me

[@galeforce8155]

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

[@ervis6926]

is this still available?

[@sinbin365]

Needs Magisk 26.3 + Odin 3.13.1 for Aug 2023 stock firmware Android 13 UI5.1

[@Void_Shark]

did you do it and if you did and it worked can you link odin and magisk

[@sinbin365]

@@Void_Shark It didn't work, showing up with 'Not Registered on Network' Error. It now has a MIPI fail which needs a combination ROM to fix but isn't available yet for the version I'm on. Going to try to root with TWRP method to fix this.🤞🤞

[@Void_Shark]

@@sinbin365 ok man if you can tell me if that method works that would be great but either way thank you

S21 ?

[@lartschtube]

Maybe (and hopefully) one day rooting Samsung phones will be as easy as at OnePlus.

[@qwerasdfhjkio]

tbh it doesn't look that hard, but where the oneplus rooting experience is in another level is with MSM download tools! It doesn't matter how much you fuck up your oneplus, you can brick it how much you want, if you download MSM download tools your phone will be as good as new!

[@gavinff]

@@qwerasdfhjkio Samsung has download mode I don't know if it works while your device is brick but it's a thing

[@LPelon773]

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?

[@vasarjun6567]

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

[@RiandeMisterios]

Hola

[@edy.v2661]

I followed all the steps but when I started the mobile I did not see the magisk application

[@Ladish]

I am having the same issue here :[ Did you find any fix for it?

[@Conan1810-6]

will this work on s21 ultra android 13?

[@michaelchlobach7100]

Only complete guide I have found so far. Very good

[@nemhiszem8920]

I found the issue, unfortunately. The Android 14 version cannot be rooted with this method, and I haven't found any other solution for it. So, I'm screwed."

[@skillerghg5796]

You can always reset it with knox on a pc

[@__alexflex__1526]

and can i install twrp on it? because i cant find any version for 21+ :(

[@BrunoSousa-17]

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

[@g33kdam0n]

This is an excelent how-to. Very well explained. Easy to follow and MOST IMPORTANT ... it works - no BS. thanks a lot.

[@mnxfi2135]

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!

[@ApxuBbI]

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?

[@mememachine269]

Most android emulators have the option to emulate a rooted device.

[@aceforcejointcombatgameout7731]

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.

[@theyellowflash100]

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

[@BrianBGeronimo]

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.

[@sharkyregion2240]

Have the same prob

[@edy.v2661]

segui todos los pasos pero al iniciar el movil no me aparece la aplicacion de magisk

[@DatCoC]

Does it work on Snapdragon version ?

[@RK-bj2fo]

I did everything as outlined and I keep getting stuck in a bootloop (S21 plus Exynos). Previously I owned the S20 plus and I could root it without any problems.

[@toastlover73]

your phone might got bricked,maybe it was the csc code, the firmware name, the magisk patched , or anything. after all you know what you are doing right?

[@UnexcitedUwiwJeje]

You download the wrong firmware the only reason.

[@Timefang69]

Like slayer said you most likely tried to flash the wrong firmware mostly all bootloops are recoverable

[@RK-bj2fo]

I tried another way and it worked flawlessly. After flashing TWRP I installed the pre-rooted BeyondRom 1.7

[@androidmodding8680]

@@toastlover73 stop using the term "bricked" bricked means that the phone is as useful as a brick and in a bootloop thats not the case you can recover it

[@cursedvideos911]

Guys!! If your phone has an Android version of 12 or later, make sure you use the latest Magisk version for this root method!!!

[@jaywinters6010]

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?

[@jh6336]

Hey, can we do it on the Snapdragon 888 yet? Has any brilliant mind or set of minds cracked the problem yet

[@Quantum_Nebula]

I'm with Jay. I got the US Snapdragon triple 8 because we like performance and better battery. xD

[@jh6336]

@@Quantum_Nebula this is funny because my dual sim arrived two days ago lol. i'm going to root it and hopefully get my nexus 10 rooted with the nethunter software on it (I read somewhere that people doing it on other phoneS....maybe my S10+? You're right about the better performance and battery life, but with if being rooted, hopefully it'll catch up. Why i opted for this one over the snapdragon; is because the avaiability as i found a great supplier for new ones or completlt refurbished ones and the dual sim feature was too attractive to pass up

[@UpToSpeedOnJaguar]

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.
