Sorry I could not tag your question due to failure with the mobile app. For starters I did not worry about using the auto-root option since I am not worried about tripping Knox counter. I prefer to flash twrp or cwm via Odin and then flash the current version of supersu from the recovery or if you are looking to install a custom Rom you can just flash it instead. Nothing against CF auto-root but this has always worked for me.

And I think I flashed CF-Root correctly. Tried to boot, Recovery is not seandroid enforcing. I then flashed TWRP 2.8.7.1 (the .img one) and now it proceeds to recovery after boot screen.
I tried restarting to system with TWRP and it went into a bootloop.
Am I on the right track? I mean is it supposed to be like that until I do a factory reset? I'm scared cause the ROM is still downloading lol how do I put it in the device's internal memory? Will I be able to in Download Mode?
On a PC running Windows XP right now, Samsung's USB Drivers don't seem to work whatsoever. I'll try it on my laptop and we'll see.
(p.s. should I have opted for the one-click rooting and stuff? Idk the guide tells me to do it via Odin so yea lol)

Since you were on 5.0.2 you could've used the PingPongRoot to easily root your phone. I did that but then after a while I thought I want a custom ROM so I updated to 5.1.1 and tried to use odin to root my phone but got the same issue as you.
After a few hours of struggeling I got out of the bootloop by doing an emergency software recovery from Smart Switch. However I'm not sure if it will recover to 5.0.2 or download the latest 5.1.1 in your case.
Nonetheless when I got my phone to work again I just flashed UniKernel with TWRP and then I was rooted.
I wont touch odin ever again I'm too nooby for that and it caused me to panic so hard with that goddamn bootloop.
I hope you get it solved!

Stuck at boot and unable to change anything!

I have an old 8013 Note 10.1 that I let my kids use, it's had CM on it forever and no issues until recently. Now it boots up to the CM bootscreen but doesn't go any further. I've booted to TWRP and tried to format and install a new ROM but it doesn't seem to even format. When I go to load a new ROM it always shows that the internal storage is the same free space (something like 513Mb). I've tried flashing PhilzTouch, TWRP, CWM, and when I reboot to recover it's still the same version of TWRP I started with. Tried flashing a stock ROM, still boots to the CM Logo. Loaded ODIN on my computer and tried flashing a stock image using ODIN and it shows it's successful, but nothing changes on the tablet. I even tried the instructions listed in this post, which should reformat everything and still - same issue.
I've attached a few screenshots of the kinds of errors and messages I get in TWRP when I try to format, do an advanced wipe of everything and still a new ROM. Any suggestions would be great! I'm ready to give up on this thing, but I still have a sliver of hope.

As I think I mentioned, I've tried. Just to be clear I've added some screenshots and output from ODIN.

Looks like everything is flashing just fine... until I reboot the tablet and get the CM Boot logo again and the tablet just gets stuck there...

Cyanogenmod boot animation and just stuck there... just like ODIN never happened.

Try doing Odin but check Nand erase all, if you know what that does it should wipe what's holding your tablet back and then flash stock firmware, just hope it works, I don't know anything else really

Can't load J700p into bootloader

So i recently flashed lineage 14.1 j7ltespr to my J700p, and the rom loaded up fine, but it won't recognize the sim card. As this is my daily driver that can't be the case, so i tried to flash a stock rom back on. I think i could get it to work, but the phone won't boot into bootloader anymore.
It has the most recent version of twrp for the model. And it will system boot, and boot recovery just fine. But when i try to boot loader, it just gives me a charging symbol, and freezes. I've been trying to fix this anyway i can for the last 12 hours.
I also tried adb, and odin. Odin gives me an auth error every time i try to load a stock rom. If anyone could help, i'd be very appreciative.
I'd take fixing the sim not found, the bootloader not coming up, or the NAND Write Start!! FAIL! (Auth) error
thank you for your time

Can you go into settings an turn off adb root then you should be able to flash stock from Odin ! Use Odin 3.12.5 !!

Thank you peter for the advice. I tried what you suggested. Still no luck. Here is the output of the odin runs, they were all identical though i tried different roms, 3 different versions of odin, root on and off, as well as with debugging on and off. Same out put every time.

It all or nothing on this if you can get into recovery factory reset then wipe system an go into download mod an try Odin one last time ! But before all that make shore debugging is on an make shore you are using a Samsung usb cord best the one that came with the phone ! An use Odin 3.12.5 or older 3.13.01 doesn't work right for that phone !!! PS make the firmware file isn't mest up ! Get the latest firmware file !

samsung galaxy note 10.1 shows encryption failed, already tried to install new firmware through odin doesnt work

my tablet shows encryption failed message, reset phone but nothing happend when i click on reset button, moreover i tried going to the wipe data/factory reset option but my tablet wont allow me to go that menu, it simply restarts the device.
anyways i read that i should try and install a new firmware for my device but i did try using many odin versions and different firmwares, this is what odin shows me:-
