[Please help] Root for Samsung J8
[Please help] Root for Samsung J8
(08-11-2018, 01:34 PM)X3non(07-11-2018, 07:31 PM)ahmedeissa I downloaded the last ROM in the photo from Samsung-firmware and it's not different from the ones I tried.. and once I extract boot.img it gives me the same error as before and when I try to patch boot.img using magisk it says installation error
See this error https://www.hovatek.com/forum/attachment.php?aid=5790
That's the error you got when trying to extract boot.img.lz4
You need to remove the extra data at the end of the file using hex editor. There's a link to hex editor in the thread at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-117.html
The difficult part is you'll have to keep removing small chunks till you finally extract without an error
Note that If you remove more than necessary you'll get a different error, e.g 'unexpected end of file'
PS: if you have a PC running Ubuntu, you should be able to extract the file without needing to remove the extra data

Is it possible that you extract it for me please? Because I have no experience using hex editor
