Now, if I read the documentation properly, this can be only set from EL3, which in your case is... not easy. On my Galaxy A8 2018 (Exynos7885) I remember the old Android 8 bootloader not being able to boot mainline, but Android 9 bootloaders did. I did not take the time to check if it was related to this, but it is my guess. Your best bet is that maybe Samsung decided to fix this on the latest bootloader, and upgrading will fix it. (Though if it's already on an Android 9 based bootloader and it's still broken, my guess is a newer version won't fix it, but who knows) Or... Exynos8895 has a known bootrom vulnerability, you could force the SoC into USB Download mode, and use the exploit to boot into a patched bootloader. This is of course pretty tedious. Your only actually relistic choice is submitting without this line and manually adding it while actually using the phone (or making the chainloaded bootloader/boot wrapper add it). Not optimal, but it is what it is... Best Regards, David
