Samsung Galaxy S22 (Exynos)
-
Unlock Bootloader (Enable OEM Unlocking, power-off, hold Vol+&- while plugging in to PC)
-
Patch and Flash recovery with fastbootd (you can patch recovery with Johnx22's Patch-Recovery Tool)
-
To flash the patched recovery, download Heimdall
-
Extract it and put the patched recovery.img into the same directory as the heimdall.exe (or the Linux equivalent)
-
Follow the README file, specifically the "Driver Installation Instructions" , in my case I had to replace the SAMSUNG USB device's with the WinUSB one (make sure it's NOT the "modem" one)
-
After that, try executing the following command within the root of Heimdall's directory:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY r.img -
Make sure to hold the power button and Volume Up as soon as the phone starts rebooting, otherwise the patched recovery will be overwritten by the Samsung one as soon as one boots into OneUI
-
After entering recovery, choose "Enter fastboot"
-
Flash an ARM64 A/B GSI with fastboot:
fastboot flash system image.img -
Go back into recovery and Wipe Data and Cache
-
Reboot!
- Download and install 7-Zip Z Standard
- Open the AP firmware file (that you'd usually flash via Odin) with 7-zip ZS
- Extract the boot.img.lz4
- Open the the boot.img.lz4 with 7-zip ZS
- Extract the boot.img
- Download and install the latest Magisk Manager apk
- Copy boot.img to your phone
- Open the Magisk app
- Choose "Select and Patch a file"
- Pick your boot.img
- Take that patched image from Downloads and put it on your PC
- Boot into fastboot via the recovery
fastboot flash boot <patched boot image name or whatever>.img- Reboot
- It will bootloop so make the phone go into recovery once more, where it'll offer you to Factory Reset since the phone is having a seizure
- Perform that factory reset and reboot
You need to be rooted for this (you can hide Magisk from banking apps via Zygisk and pass CTS with the Kdragon's fix: Kdragon's SafetyNet Fix)
- Download and install the following Magisk module within the Magisk app: Samsung Galaxy S22 Audio Policy Fix
- Reboot
- Go to Settings-> Phh Treble Settings -> Samsung features and enable Use alternate audio policy

| Proximity sensor | Broken |
| Audio in video recording playback | Fixed (see instructions above) |
**In the stock camera, everything should work (except the nightmare fuel audio from video recordings) but the quality is ass. With GCam, however, you get better quality at the cost of instability that you yourself have to tinker with to reach some stability: https://www.ytechb.com/google-camera-for-samsung-galaxy-s22-plus-and-s22-ultra/
- I personally recommend the 8.4 one (with its config and lib), and make sure to find and enable the "Exynos fix" to remove the color banding from photos.
- As an alternative, try MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix_MGC.apk along with This XML config (double tap between the shutter button and the gallery button while in the camera app in order to apply the config)
Feel free to edit if you find a better port/config.
