➤ How to root Samsung Galaxy A72 with Magisk 🎮

If you like to customize your Samsung Galaxy A72 and have complete control over its firmware, the first thing you should do is to root it. You can root Samsung Galaxy A72 using Magisk, the most popular rooting tool for Android phones. Magisk enables root and allows you to completely customize the phone system.

Also, you can use the modules with the help of Magisk Manager. There are several modules that serve different purposes that you can freely download and enable. Samsung continues to make it difficult for users to root their devices. For example, custom binaries cannot be flashed by default.

You must first unlock the bootloader, which will erase all data. KNOX is also something to keep in mind. The KNOX counter is triggered when custom binary files are displayed. This avoids losing the warranty in some countries.

Below you have a detailed tutorial on how to root your Samsung Galaxy A72. You will need to unlock the bootloader, patch the firmware and install Magisk. If you get stuck in any of the tutorial steps, leave a comment below and we'll help you.
