[root] FlashFire

FlashFire is the most advanced on-device firmware flasher available for rooted Android devices. It can flash full firmware packages from various manufacturers, as well as apply over-the-air (OTA) and ZIP updates
- all while maintaining root, and without using a custom recovery. It also offers full device backup and restore functionalities in several formats. Relevant files can be stored on internal storage, SD cards, USB connected storage, or can even be streamed directly to and from your computer using USB or Wi-Fi.
FlashFire is the spiritual successor to the Mobile ODIN app, which was a similar solution (using completely different methods under the hood) exclusively for Samsung devices on older Android versions.

FlashFire is an extremely powerful application, it should be used with caution. Data loss, soft-bricks, and even hard-bricks are possible if used incorrectly. Unless you are an expert user, consult FlashFire's website and the XDA discussion thread before doing anything potentially destructive.

Note: currently all functionality is unlocked without purchasing Pro. This may change in the future!

Brilliant app, have been using it for years. As of 2018, app is discontinued and force closes when it detects you have not purchased a Pro version. Now, the only sensible way to buy Pro is to move the device's clock back to 2017 before running the app, then reverting to correct time for purchase authentication (otherwise device won't connect). I'd happily give 5 stars for the app, but the idea of force closing with no information for the user definitely warrants a strike. Hence, four stars.

Went back to my old phone to try to reconfigure it after many years and now ... app just force closes. My recollection is that I had mobile odin therefore flash fire was unlocked to pro but that is all long ago. Very poor just to force close especially as the app is no longer developed or anything! However, when I used it years ago and it worked, I thought it was really good.....

Still using this app and I like it! Only reason I took a star off because you have to constantly change your date to 2013 or below as the current date renders this app useless. To use this app, you MUST change your date to anything older than 2013 (or of course 2013) and then it will work!

Beware of developers making great apps such as these then up an abandoning it instead of passing it on to other developers so that they can continue where the originals left off. I have the same root error but mainly due to magisk being in a higher version than what the app supports.

Doesn't work with android 12. Detects root built can't figure out how to use it. Magisk reports granting superuser.

Crashes on loadup with a clean install of a rooted galaxy s7 on Android 6.01. Had to use an old version of 0.54 to work. Program is solid when it DOES run. Otherwise would be a 4/5.

Jam. M. May 14, 2022     

Does not work, my phone is rooted and it says it's not. Using noble ROM 2.1. the only app that does not detect the root.

Mis. K. Dec 5, 2018     

Force closed when loading this app. The only solution is to turn off automatic day&time in my phone settings and change the year 2018 to 2013. VERY WEIRD but it worked. or You could also google 0.73 fixed version

If you turn your Android system date back a few years the app will run. Flashfire is still the best flash app out there. Flashify is close second.

I haven't been smart enough to figure this $ # | + out but chain fire is a GD staple in anything I tried to do as a devolper and his other contributes are short of Amazing just debating whether to go down this rabbit hole I bought a Chinese phone and I think I'm close to rooting it. So far my banking app hardware info app say that it's all rooted yet Lucky patcher and Root checker says otherwise

Tho. B. Apr 23, 2019     

update: so every user must set the date manual to 2013 to bypass the force close on load... one unique app i must say... why does flashfire force close on lg k20 plus metro (lv517 mp260)? using red wolf kernel. about to grab logcat. shows nothing but it trying to open the app then nothing disappears

Kam. K. Mar 17, 2020     

Some Time it's work, or some Time Not 😁 But In one say the app is great and it works all things which I want to do with my phone and it works without pc or any other system. At Last I will thanks to the developer's for creating such great app.😘⚡⚡

App works great! To all the whiners and amateurs crying about this application, calling it garbage and crashing.... Here's a hint: find his "old previous app" and do him a solid and BUY IT. Then open this app again. I just saved your life. Thank me later.

ste. b. Oct 16, 2018     

Paid for pro and now it will not open. Stay clear of this. Developer has a history of abandoning apps. Remember SuperSu? I paid for that one too, but it went bye bye as well.

Sha. S. Feb 17, 2021     

I am updating my review on18.02 2021 looking at the negative reviews I have to ask Google play store to tell me why they still list these apps here I mean mobile odin and this one? These apps do not work on current versions of android but used to work great when they were updated. I think Google play should remove them from the store because people search for the best tools and these were extremely good and popular so come on top and people buy only to find they don’t work on android os 8 upward

Qua. Q. Jun 25, 2019     

no longer supports the newest version of magisk root unfortunately. are there reasons why this program was stopped developed? and are there any alternatives out there??

Hri. R. May 1, 2019

I haven't used this yet but will do. Top marks because the creators deserve every bit of recognition. I trust them 100% and their apps have never let me down

Kev. S. Mar 21, 2019     

It Still Works! For those that it 'crashes' when checking for Pro.. If you purchase '[root] Mobile ODIN Pro', that will enable Pro in FlashFire, so it will work.

A. G. u. Jan 22, 2019     

*FIX* - Temporarily turn off your devices Automatic date & time in settings - change year from 2019 to 2015 - clear FlashFire data then try again

Amo. W. Apr 1, 2020     

Not yet used this app but wanted to know if it will work on phone rooted with one click apps like Kingroot etc with bootloader still locked or will it brick the phone or cause bootloop since bootloader is locked

Sus. S. Jan 28, 2019     

i am also ashamed of me in giving one star it completely hard bricked my device, in service centre I have spent RS.30000 on my device but still it is not flashing properly ,my same reviews to similar apps like rash r, flashify,boot animations etc. guys be careful in handling with this root apps ⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠ these are the most common apps which can soft or hard brick your device

Joe. S. Apr 2, 2019     

May be OK, but I'll never know as it crashes on startup. Tmo Galaxy Note 4 on Resurrection Remix, Magisk rooted.

Fud. B. Mar 20, 2022     

It saids root was found but no access and it was magisk root but it still didnt work even though it saids it supports magisk root

Eri. C. Dec 23, 2020     

Great app worked in lower firmwares now it doesn't work with android 10, and magisk and a root solution even it it's fully installed

Señ. C. Dec 1, 2019     

There needs to be an override for supported SU binaries. My Magisk shows up as 20.1:MAGISKSU and not as Magisk like FlashFire expects.

Jus. W. Dec 28, 2021     

Even though my device is rooted it's not compatible with my Google pixel 4a.

Jac. P. Dec 11, 2021     

It worked perfectly back in 2013!
