The video provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide on rooting the Samsung Galaxy S22 series (including the base S22, S22 Plus, S22 Ultra, and upcoming S22 FE) using Magisk. Key points include the necessity of unlocking the bootloader beforehand, with a separate tutorial available for this step. The process involves copying the AP file to the device and patching it with Magisk to create a "magisk_patched.tar" file. This patched file must be transferred back to the PC and used with Odin, a tool for flashing firmware.
When using Odin, specific firmware files are loaded into designated slots (BL, AP, CP, and CSC), with emphasis on using the Magisk-patched AP file and the regular CSC file. Successful flashing is indicated by a green pass message and an automatic reboot of the phone. Following the reboot, users must upgrade to the full version of Magisk for root access, with internet connectivity required for this upgrade.
Final steps include granting necessary permissions, performing an additional reboot, and verifying root access using a root checker app. This process is reiterated for different Galaxy S22 models, underscoring the importance of every step, especially unlocking the bootloader and maintaining a stable USB connection throughout.

In this part of the video, the presenter explains how to use Odin to load specific firmware files onto a device for rooting purposes. The slots in Odin correspond to different firmware files: BL, AP, CP, and CSC. For a first-time root, it’s important to select the regular CSC file instead of the home CSC file. For the AP slot, the presenter emphasizes using a modified firmware file, patched with Magisk, instead of the default one. After loading all the required files, the presenter advises clicking the start button and monitoring progress bars both on the phone and in Odin. It’s crucial to maintain a stable USB connection during the process.

In this segment, the focus is on completing the installation and setup of Magisk to gain root access on a Galaxy S22 device. The process involves upgrading to the full Magisk application, allowing necessary permissions, and performing additional setup that requires a reboot. After the reboot, the user can confirm the Magisk installation and root access by checking the installed version, which is 24.3 in this case. To verify root access, the presenter downloads and uses a root checker app. This segment demonstrates how to root the Galaxy S22, S22 Plus, and S22 Ultra using Magisk, emphasizing the need to unlock the bootloader first.
