A105F can not flash combination file - GSM-Forum

nokman · 05-31-2019, 07:48

I'm trying to flash combination file on A105F, flash always stops at PIT file error.
I recompiled combination file without PIT file and tried to flash again, this time flash stops with error when trying to flash boot.img (Bootloader does not allow to flash custom files). I can reflash original stock firmware without any problem..
Stock firmware allows me to set OEM unlock ON but it seems that bootloader is still locked
Any solution for this problem?

The problem has been known for a while, it happens to all the S10, and phones that end X05. That's what I've found on another forum. Haven't tried it yet, but I am pretty sure it might void the warranty

Usually I will not give instructions for this, but since things have changed dramatically from previous Samsung devices, and there are some details that many may not know, I think that would be useful.
* Allow bootloader unlock in developer settings ? OEM unlock
• Turn off the device. Press Bixby + Volume Down and connect the device to your PC to boot into download mode
* Long press the volume to unlock the bootloader. This will erase your data and automatically reboot.

Just when you think that the bootloader is unlocked, Surprise surprise, really not! Samsung introduced VaultKeeper in the system, that is, the bootloader will reject any unofficial sections before VaultKeeper explicitly resolves this.
* Complete the initial setup. Skip all the steps, as the data will be erased later when we install Magisk. Connect your device to the internet in settings, though!
* Turn on Developer Options and confirm that the OEM unlock option exists and is grayed out! The VaultKeeper service will release the bootloader after confirming that the user has the OEM unlock option enabled. This step is just to make sure that the service receives the correct information, and also double-check that our device is in the correct state
* Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode, a.k. the actual bootloader is unlocked

The error is happens because the RMM STATE is set to PRENORMAL, so first try to disable RMM STATE.

I could only root the device. Still getting PIT errors when trying to flash combination file. Current device state is rooted stock firmware..
