I successfully installed TWRP yesterday on my phone and then wanted to root it, but before doing that, I wanted to do a Full-Wipe of my phone, just leaving the phone with the OS, but for some reason, I left the System Partition Wipe option enabled and Wiped it. Now, I'm stuck in a bootloop without an OS, and I can only access TWRP and Download Mode.

How can I recover the system/install the OS again?

Phone Specs:

SAMSUNG J7 PRO (SM-J730GM),

Previous O.S: Nougat 7.0

Region: México TCE

  • Thanks for this! I'm going to try this, but I was wondering... what if I was already downloading that file with the SamFirm Tool, since I don't have any username on that page? Is it the same file? EDIT: I will update here If I have any complications :)

  • Thank you, it worked! Now I'm going back to install TWRP and root it without deleting the system partition
