Before you flash the recovery, untick the Auto Reboot option in ODIN. Then flash the recovery. After flashing in done, reboot your device directly to recovery mode from download mode by pressing Vol up + Power + Home button together. Now you will see the TWRP recovery is booted in your device. Now you can reboot normally and your TWRP will be installed. Hit the thanks button if it helped you

flash an old version of supersu!

I'm unable to boot into TWRP. Tried everything and searched everywhere but can't make it work.
After installing it with Odin I manually turn it off. When I boot the phone into recovery mode it says "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" and I'm unable to do anything and have to pull off the battery. The phone boots normally otherwise.
I want to root this phone, what can I do?

My phone j2 2015 is encrypted with password
Using odin i flashed TWRP 3.1.1.0 img.tar and i found not installed Twrp. I checked auto reboot option..

Is this will work 100% ?

J200f icin uygun custom romu nerden Bulabilirim

This unlocks the bootloader?

||READ EDIT BELOW||
Device : J200F
TWRP is not installing. Before anyone starts raging and call me noob and tell me to go die. Im doing this for the first time in my life and i havent really messed with Android permissions and stuffs like flashing etc. Total noob here looking for help to learn how to properly do this. If you dont want to help me, atleast point me to the right tut/person before you berate me. I know. "google has them, youtube shows them". But think for once, would i be here asking help from you guys if the obvious things worked for me? Onto the issue now :
Using latest odin and TWRP recommended by custom OS as i wanted to flash new rom. Download mode starts up and says "Downloading", but nothing ever happens, and in odin, it says 'all threads completed (succeed 0 / Failed 0)'. This is my first time and i tried following all instruction and i do not understand if i messed up somewhere. Is root a pre-requisite, because i havent rooted my device yet and nor was i told to root it to install TWRP.
Also, i beg your pardon if i seemed rude, and replied to a thread old. I was frustrated as i looked at "odin fails to boot twrp" and as soon as i found this in XDA, i had to check this.
||EDIT||
I fixed this. It seems i did not have the right Samsung drivers and my phone wasnt being recognized / added to the Odin setup. A friend of mine had rooted his J2, so he told me to download it, and i did (No Links, sorry). This fixed it and i successfully flashed my phone. Might as well include this as beginners may not know. Thanks.

Are you sure this is CWM?

Yes, reverting back to stock fw will make it possible to get samsung updates and to use apps that doesn't work with root. Knox tripped won't effect anything except samsung pay or android pay and you loose your warranty (you won't be able to repair your phone in an official Samsung store) However you can still have a custom fw and use apps wich do not run on rooted devices, you can google methods on how to You can also get updates to the newest firmware if the development of the rom of your choice is still active

Installing a recovey is very useful so you can install custom roms and root your phone. Here are my instructions :
Unlock developer options in settings, go into about device and software info, tap on you buildnumber 7 times. Go into developer options and switch it on. Find USB debugging and switch it on.
You need to download ODIN and install it to your computer http://www.droidviews.com/download-odin-tool-for-samsung-galaxy-devices-all-versions/ download the latest version of odin
You also need to download samsung usbdrivers http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SM-G920AZKFATT go down to downloads and click install exe and accept. When the download is finished install the usbdrivers.
Custom recovery http://arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/recovery/twrp/g920fi/ download the tar file and NOT a zipfile to your computer.
1. Switch your phone off
2. Press and hold down volume down + home button + power button at the same time.
3. Release the buttons when the warning comes up and press volume up.
4. Open ODIN and plug in your phone to your computer via an USB cable.
5. When ODIN has recognized your phone just click on AP and browse untill you find the recovery tar file you have downloaded.
6. Click on start. Let ODIN do it's job.
7. Your phone might boot into recovery or just restart itself and if it boots into recovery tap on Reboot and tap System.
Now you have a custom recovery installed and to boot into recovery switch off your phone. Press and hold down volume up + home button + power button at the same time until the samsung logo pops up and in the top left corner it will say in red "warning recovery not enforcing"
On xda you can find many different roms for galaxy s6 and hopefully you can find one that suits you. Follow the devolopers instructions on how to install them.
If you just want to root your phone download Super SU https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.78-201609011115.zip
Boot into recovery and tap Install. Browse the file SuperSU-v2.78, it's probably in the Download folder. Tap the file and flash it. When it's done wipe dalvik and cache and reboot.
You won't loose any data when you do all this if everything goes smoothly. Good luck!

!SOLVED! S6 stuck in bootloop after TWRP-flash ( !SOLVED !)

SOLVED!
Hey there,
i just tried flashing TWRP (twrp-3.1.0-0-zeroflte.img.tar) via Odin (Odin3_v3.12.4_4) on my Samsung Galaxy S6 on nougat 7.0 and am stuck in bootloop (GALAXY S6-Bootscreen reappearing every 6 seconds). My device is not rooted, but i do have access on TWRP 3.1.1-0 and the Download Mode. I did not care about tripping knox as PingPongRoot doesn't support my Buildnumber (yet).
Is there any way to fix the bootloop without resetting my device to stock?
I tried wiping the caches, but nothing changes.
Any help is appreciated! :angel:
Download mode says:
Product name: SM-G920F
Current binary: Custom
System status: Official
Reactivation lock: Off
Secure download: enabled
Knox warranty void: 1 (0x030c)
Ap Swrev: B:5 K:2 S:2
Note:
I do have a root file (N920_Nougat_Root_SuperSU-No_kernel_included.zip) on my device that could be installed via TWRP, but that doesn't help at all, right?

Reflashing – Odin doesn't recognize S6
I tried reflashing, but Odin does not recognize the S6 at all.
No device is beeing 'added'.
Could i transfer my user data (pictures, music) via adb through twrp to my computer?
I didn't backup, stupid as i am

Problem solved!
I solved the problem by flashing the root file (N920_Nougat_Root_SuperSU-No_kernel_included.zip) via TWRP-Recovery.
After this step, the phone rebooted and all my user data remained. Root & TWRP working just fine. :good:

1. Google or baidu the following twrp unofficial build "TWRP-3.1.0-G9200-G9208-G9209-G920D-G920P.tar" (Official TWRP builds will not work because they are for G9200 HK version)
2. Open Odin 3.1x.x and and uncheck the "Auto Reboot" option
3. Put the G9200 onto download mode and flash
4. Disconnect the usb cable
5. Hold "Volume Down + Power" (Hard restart) for 5 seconds and once screen goes black immediately release and hold "Volume up + Home + Power" (Launch Recovery)
6. You should see TWRP working If you did above steps correctly.
7. Now you got TWRP but OS is stuck in bootloop.
8. Flash latest Magisk or SuperSu with TWRP.

Nope

here`s the twrp for j23g
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...p-3-0-2-1-samsung-galaxy-j2-sm-j200h-t3486994
and for root Just use magisk, it works on almost all smartphones and has much more features.

problems faced and solns found
1. During twrp flashing using odin, my stock recovery kept patching the twrp after reboots. So i couldn't install twrp succesfully. To fix this I unchecked "reboot" option in odin (thanks to another xda rooting guide)and switched off device manually after flashing. Then booted into recovery by pressing "home+vol up+power". this time stock rom was gone and twrp was there to welcome me.
2. i ended up in a bootloop after flashing the aforementioned superuser zip file. Instead i flashed BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip and fixed the bootloop.
Note- My device is Samsung Galaxy j200-G.

[GUIDE] [Q/R]How to Install TWRP 3.4.0-0

1) Download Odin3 v3.13.1, Samsung USB Drivers , Download Latest TWRP.img.tar , Disable_forcedencryption patch,
2) Go to Settings App, Developer Options and enable OEM Unlock (If you don't see Developer Setings, go into About phone>Software info and tap "Build number" 10 times to show Developer Options menu).
3) Do a backup of all your important data and files in your phone.
4) Shutdown the phone. Once it's off, Power it On in Download Mode (Connect your phone to your PC, press and hold Power, Vol + and Vol - buttons together )
5) Open Odin3, go in Option section and untick "Auto-reboot". Once that click the "AP" button and select the TWRP tar you downloaded before, then press the "Start" button.

7) Once TWRP is booted you first need to decrypt your /data partition. To do so touch Wipe>Format Data ( you will lose all data ) and follow the instructions in screen.
8) Once it finished go back at the home screen and touch Reboot>Recovery. TWRP should be able to mount your data partition. Now flash the Disable_forcedencryption patch
9) You are done. Flash your favorite ROM.zip
Instructions from here were updated to be able to use twrp after Android 10 update.

Yes and doesnt it say there at the last line

Hi, this is just for switching from Stock Locked BL devices right? If previous instructions on the last post have been followed, then the .img from twrp.me can be flashed to recovery in already installed TWRP right? I have 3.3 installed so upgrading can be done from recovery itself, if I'm not wrong?
