hey, i've been trying to root 920P (S6 Sprint) for whole week now, i've tried everything i found, tried to flash few versions of TWRP, failed at 99%, tried to root directly with CF-Auto root and it fails mid-flash, tried multiple versions of odin, still same results :|

it's really weird, I've succesfully flashed 920F (International) without any problem multiple times. I can flash stock rom so it's not hardware's fault. Am i missing some simple newbie step?
{FIXED}
i was missing newbie step like i suspected xDD i forgot to enable oem unlock
what is the solution ?

my device is sm920A . it is at&t . i cannot find oem unlocker
Possible Solution to Odin "failed" messaged whilst flashing
Warm greetings to all.
I have previously encountered this problem before, ive tried clearing the cache and formatting with still no luck
Eventually I wanted to try something, I loaded my software I wanted to flash on a USB.
I then used an OTG adapter to connect the usb to my phone. I then booted into the recovery ( I have TWRP) and chose install from external storage. To my surprise it worked.
NOTE: I am not sure if this method will work on stock recoveries. Also if you have an external hard drive it works as well
Also note. My S6 is an international version i believe G925F
Wishing you all the best of luck if I was not able to help

Hi,
I never saw this problem
My phone is unlocked (since a year more or less) and I can't install TWRP nor CWM. I tried many tutorials such as all the root methods listed on XDA for this smartphone.

There might be a problem with your drivers. You can try uninstalling and reinstalling them. Also, try using fastboot commands manually
Sent from my Mate
unlock again
Thank you. I'd like not to have to relock it as it's already done and rooted. Could you please tell me what drivers to install? I tested many of them (https://i.imgur.com/wBgsezr.png) but it seems I don't have the right ones then.
I'm using Win7 64bits.
Thanks again!
Use adbdriveinstaler and when it's install you can push recovery to add folder and try this command
cd C:/adb
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Change name your twrp or cwm to recovery
Send frome globe
Okay. Here we go
ADB driver installed (https://i.imgur.com/PWrZoHH.png)
Went to flash and... still not allowed.
And in fastboot/rescue mode on my phone it's written PHONE Unlocked.
WTF
BTW, is there any other way to upgrade the phone? Cause every time I go to the software update in the menu i'm told it's up-to-date, but it's not... Android 4.4.2 & EMUI 3.0.
I read about a "local update" but can't find out how to update from the SDcard, I only have OTA.

how can i fix it ?
Probably bad flash/ota. Happened too me as well. I had to reset to stock and reflash via Odin. Make full backup of your device, then try to get back to stock.

can you please describe little bit more ...
you mean i could wipe data with twrp recovery mode ?
or should use odin to install the same firmware again or what ?
What? No. Didn't say anywhere to root. Get to bootloader, use odin and flash original samsung system.
How to make full backup of the device if u arent rooted??
Don't root and fiddle around if you don't know what your doing. Or at least get enough information about what your doing before doing it.
this happened to me after flashing stock FW with odin and then flashing custom recovery without first letting the phone to boot.
After flashing CSC, the phone needs to go to revocery and finish the flashing process (copy CSC files to system). If you flash custom rom, it might not be able to flash the zip and therefore you have no CSC and get weird settings.
I was able to flash the zip with custom recovery by remounting system as read-write first.
I have a Samsung J400M and since the 23rd of May I am trying to solve the error "Could not do normal boot. Invalid Kernel Length". The device was running Android 9 and this error appeared without any explanation.

I can only access the device's download mode.
OEM and FRP are locked and I cannot unlock and I cannot identify my binary number.
I tested firmwares and several versions (new and old) of Odin, but so far I have not achieved any positive results.
I tried to solve by FWRP, but I was also not successful, because I believe that with OEM blocked, I can't get anything. Right?
The image below is the Odin screen. That was as far as I could go so far.
Can anybody help me?
How can I unlock the OEM on this device without having access to Android? Any other solution?

Unlock the boot loader with fast boot if possible with Samsung phones. If you can flash twrp which I presume you can't, flash RMM bypass zip and hope for the best. Good luck.
So I got the first step, flashing TWRP. But, there's only a version of TWRP for the a10, would this work?
you don't really need twrp for root, just follow this guide

I have previously tried Kingo/King Root which worked on my KitKat Nabi tablet, I tried that on my a10e it failed. Root checker says there is no root for andr 11 on the a10e
whatever you do, do NOT use kingoroot, it basically installs a outdated version of SuperSU (which isn't liked by the community anymore because the original developer sold it to some random company) and bloats ur system up.
Yep, no OEM bootloader unlock option in dev settings
it may be possibly locked to your carrier. again, you can send me a screen recording or get an unlocked phone
My phone appears to be unlocked already, there is no sign of Verizon still being on here. I have since upgraded phones and the SIM card isn't in anymore.
Do I have to factory reset to fully get rid of the OEM?
i found this youtube video with some quick searching. it's in hindi but you can get the gist of it.
I most certainly dont have to disable automatic time right?
i don't know, after you get the option maybe you can set it back
i followed and nothing happened
did you reboot your phone after the fact?
yep, nothing works
Are we able to root and have magisk?
Definitely yes! Once you get familiar with the procedure, it's quite simple actually.
The hardest part is getting your device's bootloader unlocked.
Once you have the bootloader unlocked, follow instructions in this article.
Good luck and have fun!

Have you personally tested this?
Of course!
Though I don't flash the magisk patched boot image, I fastboot boot it, like described in step 3B in that article.
After rebooting, direct install magisk in the magisk manager, and reboot again, done, your device is officially rooted.

Maybe the problem is the minimal adb setup, try full version from google official site.
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Or there is incompatible issue with you usb port or cable, try another one.
I really like this but can't use root

Hi! It was just the cable, instead of using the orignal cable I used another and everything worked!
