Download & Install Android 16 Custom ROMs on Galaxy A52s 5G

From this guide, you can download and install the latest Android 16 custom ROMs for your Galaxy A52s 5G. This time around, Google launched the first Developer Preview just a month after launching Android 15 stable. As a result of this, all its update cycles follow an earlier timeline when compared with its counterpart.

Apart from the fact that OEMs are able to release the update at a much faster rate than before, we are also witnessing some impressive custom ROM development at an impressive rate. So the devices that had already reached their end of life [EOL] are now being blessed with the sixteenth iteration of the OS, albeit via the custom ROM route.

And the Galaxy A52s 5G is one such device that is about to receive tons of intriguing goodies and a plentitude of new features, all thanks to these ROMs. So without any further ado, let’s make you aware of the installation steps.

A Few Points Worth Discussing

galaxy a52s 5g android 16 custom roms - 1

Before starting, please back up all the data on your device just to be on the safe side. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device, and data by performing the below steps.

  • NOTE 1: After flashing most of the AOSP ROMS given below, WiFi might not work on your device. Worry not! Just flash this fix in the TWRP Recovery, and the WiFi will be up and running right away.
  • NOTE 2: If you have flashed a TWRP Recovery and are proceeding to flash a ROM, then you have two options- -Reboot to system and then reboot back to recovery: this way, you’ll be able to transfer the ROM ZIP file to your device. The only drawback is that it will take quite a lot of time. -Reboot to Recovery. You wouldn’t be able to access the device’s storage on your PC, and you wouldn’t be able to transfer the ROM to your device’s Internal Memory via ADB Push as well. But you can still easily do an ADB Push to the /data directory of your device. This is the method that I usually go for because it saves quite a lot of time.

Root Galaxy A52s 5G with KernelSU and KernelSU Next SUSFS

In this guide, we will show you the steps to install the latest Ascendia Kernel with KernelSU/KernelSU Next SUSFS on your Galaxy A52s 5G. Nowadays, there exist quite a few ways of gaining administrative privileges over your device. While Magisk is still the go-to choice for the masses, however, in recent times, many users are making a shift towards the likes of APatch and KernelSU. One major reason for the same is the fact that hiding the root has become quite a challenging task when it comes to Magisk.

On the other hand, many banking and payment apps are yet to give any major attention to the APatch and KernelSU. So if you root your device using either of these two approaches, then there’s a high chance of your device being able to mitigate the Play Integrity fiasco. So in this guide, we will be taking the kernel approach and listing the steps to root your Galaxy A52s 5G by installing the Ascendia Kernel, which comes embedded with KernelSU.
