No bootloader access? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

No bootloader access? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

Hi there!
This is my first Samsung phone that I attempted to root. It's a Sprint Note 5 with *3DRH1 firmware, and it refuses to drop-down to bootloader level. Trying with either adb, or Vol+,Home,Power key press combination, or selecting "reboot to bootloader" from recovery ends up booting right back into system. I've read one mention about Sprint preventing such access, but is there a way around this?
That's one problem. The other is inability to flush (with Odin) the TWRP recovery, even though Odin reports success. After that, booting to recovery first displays "Installing system software" on a blue background, then a warning "No command", and only then ends up on native recovery.
The one thing I was successful in was to boot into Download mode, and I guess this would allow me to flush other original firmware. Is that right? What older firmware would allow me to root this phone? Is that the route to take, or is there magic trick/key press combination that can invoke the bootloader mode? Thanks for any pointers.

Note 5 doesnt have a bootloader
If you want to root or use any custom roms, you need TWRP,
Steps to root:-
1) Download the latest version of twrp for your device from TWRP's website
2) place it in AP in Odin
3) Close your phone then press Volume Down, Home Button, Power button simultaneously to boot to Odin/Download Mode
4) connect to your PC and flash twrp
5) Download Magisk v23 from Magisk's github.
6) use an OTG or place it on your phone's sdcard.
7) Install it from TWRP
The reason i said v23 instead of v24 is because Magisk Hide is off as default for v24, so, better to install v23 then update magisk later from its app.

[A] [SM-P900] HOWTO: Full Backup without Root and Easiest way to get Root

Disclaimer: Not responsible for what you do with this information.
Important Note: So far (April 2015), no one has been able to root or flash non-stock recovery on SM-P900 without tripping KNOX. For all we know, KNOX is useless to us, but nonetheless use the SuperSU app to disable KNOX after you are able to get root. No need to disable KNOX if you don't root.
I tried to get root on my SM-P900 but for some reason I couldn't get TWRP recovery to stick (always reverted to stock recovery) and also had corrupted display after flashing Chainfire autoroot using ODIN (Odin was stuck on flashing cache.img). My summary here should help anyone else to quickly what they need without digging through different threads. FYI-- these steps work on latest Samsung OTA with Kitkat 4.4.2
Tools required (for full backup or to get root):
Windows 7 PC (or Virtual Box VM https://www.modern.ie/en-us/virtualization-tools#downloads -- did not test using a VM)
Samsung USB Drivers for Note Pro 12.2
Odin3 (v3.09, not 3.07 or 3.10.x)-- Only get this from xda-developers forums, not from any third party website http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2409624&d=1385179473 -
P900XXUANB3-RecoveryImg.tar -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2591013&d=1392923580
twrp-2.8.6.0-v1awifi.img.tar (or just latest twrp for P900 .img.tar image)
Two things to be aware of:
To Boot Tablet in Odin mode press and hold: (Vol Down + Menu + Power)
To Boot Tablet to Recovery press and hold: (Vol Up + Menu + Power) release after seeing Samsung logo for the second time
1. Compleletly remove Samsung Kies from your PC
2. Install latest Samsung USB drivers for Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 (just google and get it from the official Samsung Website)
3. Keep USB cable disconnected from PC, Boot into Odin Download Mode on the tablet
- Make sure to accept the warning by pushing Vol up
- Odin Mode should say:
Current Binary: Samsung (or Official)
System Status: Samsung (or Official)
Knox Warranty Void: 0
4. Start Odin on the Windows PC as Administrator (not sure if Admin rights are necessary but just do it)
5. Load the P900XXUANB3-RecoveryImg.tar image into "AP" (or "PDA" if you are using an earlier Odin3 version!!!). Also remove "Auto Reboot" option and keep "F. Reset Time" enabled
6. Connect the Tablet. Odin should say ""<ID:0/00#> Added!! -- this means USB connection established
7. Flash the Recovery Image by hitting "Start". Should take maybe 5-10 seconds.
8. Next load the twrp .img.tar file in to "AP". Flash that by hitting "Start". Should take maybe 10 seconds.
9. Power tablet off. Disconnect USB.
10. Plug in an external microSD card (if you want to backup). Boot in to recovery (Vol up + Menu + Power).
If you do a full boot, you will lose recovery. If you flash CF Auto Root .tar.md5 image you will get corrupted display then you wont be able to boot unless you flash the P900XXUANB3-RecoveryImg.tar image.
11. Once in TWRP recovery, you should do a backup and select the destination the external microSD card.
12. Then go to reboot, select system, and then swipe right if you want to root.
13. Boot up normally, then download SuperSU app from Google Play Store
14. Run SuperSU, it will say binary needs to be updated. Hit OK, then hit TWRP/CWM Recovery. Device will reboot in to TWRP, run a script then will say "FAILED" and reboot automatically.
15. Boot up normally, you now have root. Open SuperSU app, it will say seems that you have KNOX, do you want to disable it? Say yes.
People on this forum said that if Root is acquired and KNOX is not disabled, they suffered from random soft-reboots.
Download Adaway APK and install it. Once installed run the app an it will ask for root privileges. Now you're golden.
Troubleshooting:
If you tried to flash and TWRP doesn't stick check your status by going in to Odin Mode if the tablet still says:
Current Binary: Samsung (or Official)
System Status: Samsung (or Official)
Knox Warranty Void: 0
Then nothing changed from stock settings.
If it says:
Current Binary: Samsung (or Official)
System Status: Custom
Knox Warranty Void: 1
Then you probably have TWRP installed but didn't try booting in to it.
If it says:
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Custom
Knox Warranty Void: 1
Then you probably have TWRP installed and also root (if you swiped right).
Where to go from here?
You can stay rooted, or you can now use TWRP to flash another rom (CM12+ for example).

Good Guide, thank you!, was about to write one anyways.
5 more things:
1.) On the Note Pro you don't need the home button! You can reach recovery by pressing Vol up + Power, let got of the Power and keep pressing Vol when you see the screen turn on (easier when device is unplugged from both PC and power)
2.) For those interested in using a VM to use with Odin: VirtualBox DOES NOT WORK! (tested with Win XP and Win7). The problem seems to be the virtual USB Controller to connect to Host USB devices. Odin won't detect connected devices.
Use VmWare instead! I used VMWare Fusion with Win 7 Enterprise and it worked like a charm. Seems to have better USB Host integration.
3.) Odin 3.10.6 worked fine for me (Odin 3.9 also works!)
4.)Suggestion:
If you want root, instead of downloading SuperSU from the Play store, place the TWRP SuperSU (at the moment SuperSU 2.46) on your SD card. When you boot into recovery, you can flash the SuperSU directly after making you initial backup.
No Errors, so installing Supersu twice, no problems
5. SUPERSU link is missing in the "things needed" list.
Feel free to add this information to the first post.

thanks for the tips.
using the method described above, SuperSU script is downloaded with the play store SuperSU app. So it guarantees you're using the latest version. plus you should use the SuperSU app to monitor which apps have been granted root privileges.
although i haven't tried Odin with Virtual Box, I've used fastboot and adb a few thousand times and it always worked for me. maybe its something specific happening here.

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.

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?

How to root OP6 11.1.1.1 ?

I've recently upgraded from 10.3.11 to 11.1.1.1 and so far I've not been able to find a version of TWRP that I can fastboot into that works. All the versions I've tried have just hung on the fastboot title screen and gone no further.
Obviously after booting onto TWRP I'm planning to install magisk v23 before rebooting onto my fully rooted phone, that's my hope anyway.
So could someone please post a solution to the OP6 11.1.1.1 root issue?
Thanks

wouldn't it work to downgrade the os and then try again?

Rooting with twrp steps:
Note: This is for OOS 11.1.1.1 (running with stock boot image) on OP6 assuming you have already upgraded to this version and now your twrp and root are broken - I can't speak of any oher version or device. This worked for me and may or may not work for you.
Just for reference and steps that I followed so all of this is summarized in a single post (see also: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/issues-getting-root-back-after-android-11-update-op6.4343729/):
Pre-steps for safety (can be skipped depending upon your comfort level):
1. If you are not on stock boot image then please follow the youtube link in the next step below to revert to stock boot image.
2. Download the stock boot image: see the description of this video (note - do not follow the steps in the video to use the patched boot image as you will lose twrp and installing twrp nebrassy after using the patched boot image does not work as booting into system gets you in to twrp and not normal boot. If you don't care about having twrp then feel free to follow the vide and ignore the rest of this post as that works quite well as well but you will only have stock recovery):
. This allows you to use fastboot to revert to stock boot image in case you get in to a bootloop.
Steps for rooting (this assumes you have at least fastboot and the right drivers installed on you PC/laptop):
1. Download the magisk zip file directly on to the phone - say in the downloads dir. I used the release version v23 which I also used with the oos 10.x version prior to the upgrade
2. Download the TWRP Nebrassy image https://filehorst.de/d/extocxFJ on to your PC/laptop.
3. Get your OP6 in to fastboot mode (power off the phone and then power back on with Vol up and power pressed simultaneously)
4. Boot in to the above recovery image after connecting the phone to laptop using USB: fastboot boot TWRP-3.5.2-enchilada-Nebrassy-2.img
5. Once the phone boots in to the above recovery - from the Advanced menu (scroll down in to this menu) and install "this TWRP image"
6. Reboot the phone in to system - if the phone bootloops then revert the boot image out and do not proceed any further (see the above youtube video link). If all goes well and everything checks out, from the power menu boot in to recovery or power off the phone and then power on while holding the volume down button. This will boot the phone in to twrp again
7. From the twrp install menu, find the Magisk zip file on the phone and install it. Wipe Dalvik and reboot in to system.
8. If all goes well, find the magisk app and verify root and follow the instructions in the above youtube video to enable magisk hide, safety net checks, etc. If your phone is bootlooping, then revert out the boot image (see the video above on how to do so)

Is your bootloader locked now? Also you would no longer have twrp as the recovery?

Yes, twrp is removed. Bootloader is unlocked. No problem with that.

Hey! Thanks for the reply. But I'm able to use my banking services with patched boot image for magisk. Any steps I can use to flash twrp again? I've lost twrp when I did flash magisk boot image for my OP6.
I fear I'll get into boot loop maybe. Or something might happen. And after flashing twrp again I can use those steps.

Rooting with twrp steps:
Note: This is for OOS 11.1.1.1 (running with stock boot image) on OP6 assuming you have already upgraded to this version and now your twrp and root are broken - I can't speak of any oher version or device. This worked for me and may or may not work for you.
Just for reference and steps that I followed so all of this is summarized in a single post (see also: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/issues-getting-root-back-after-android-11-update-op6.4343729/):
Pre-steps for safety (can be skipped depending upon your comfort level):
1. If you are not on stock boot image then please follow the youtube link in the next step below to revert to stock boot image.
2. Download the stock boot image: see the description of this video (note - do not follow the steps in the video to use the patched boot image as you will lose twrp and installing twrp nebrassy after using the patched boot image does not work as booting into system gets you in to twrp and not normal boot. If you don't care about having twrp then feel free to follow the vide and ignore the rest of this post as that works quite well as well but you will only have stock recovery):
. This allows you to use fastboot to revert to stock boot image in case you get in to a bootloop.
Steps for rooting (this assumes you have at least fastboot and the right drivers installed on you PC/laptop):
1. Download the magisk zip file directly on to the phone - say in the downloads dir. I used the release version v23 which I also used with the oos 10.x version prior to the upgrade
2. Download the TWRP Nebrassy image https://filehorst.de/d/extocxFJ on to your PC/laptop.
3. Get your OP6 in to fastboot mode (power off the phone and then power back on with Vol up and power pressed simultaneously)
4. Boot in to the above recovery image after connecting the phone to laptop using USB: fastboot boot TWRP-3.5.2-enchilada-Nebrassy-2.img
5. Once the phone boots in to the above recovery - from the Advanced menu (scroll down in to this menu) and install "this TWRP image"
6. Reboot the phone in to system - if the phone bootloops then revert the boot image out and do not proceed any further (see the above youtube video link). If all goes well and everything checks out, from the power menu boot in to recovery or power off the phone and then power on while holding the volume down button. This will boot the phone in to twrp again
7. From the twrp install menu, find the Magisk zip file on the phone and install it. Wipe Dalvik and reboot in to system.
8. If all goes well, find the magisk app and verify root and follow the instructions in the above youtube video to enable magisk hide, safety net checks, etc. If your phone is bootlooping, then revert out the boot image (see the video above on how to do so)
Thanks to @UraniumDonut @blackfake @Thratchen !

Thanks for this. I had all kinds of problems trying to get root after updating to 11.1.1.1. Even this failed when I tried to install Magisk via the Nebrassy TWRP. That got me a crashdump. So I watched the video. I then flashed the stock boot image. Rebooting was successful. Then, I flashed the patched root boot image. Success, finally. This after various other failures via different methods.
Perhaps had I flashed the Magisk uninstaller, I could have avoided the stock boot > patched boot steps. But it all adds up to kind of the same thing.
Anyway, thanks again. It saved me.

Need help for flashing TWRP onto a Magisk-enabled Samsung device

Hi. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 5G (d1x) device, rooted with magisk. The recovery key combo (Power+VolUp) is not working on the second reboot since flashing magisk (exiting download mode to be the first), pressing the key combo only gets me into a unrooted os. Issuing adb reboot recovery command from a pc will only get me into Magisk-enabled os, whether VolUp is long-pressed or not. After I tried to flash a TWRP image patched by the Magisk App using Odin, the situation remained same: key combo not working, adb command gets me into Magisk-enabled os. But if I use the Reboot to Recovery option inside the Magisk App, the phone blacks out for a few seconds after the Note 10 splash screen, and then reboots and gets into unrooted os.
So my question is: Is there something wrong with my method (patching the TWRP image from their official site with Magisk App, renaming it into recovery.img and flashing a tarball containing it with Odin), and how can I get both Magisk and TWRP working (and also how can I fix the recovery key combo).

REPLY:Both TWRP and Magisk work properly after the third reboot.

Hi, I have the same problem. Note 10+ and root from Magisk (Patching AP). Every time I normally reset the phone, I lose root. Then, to recover root, I have to combine on computer with the commands "adb reboot" plus a combination of PWR + Vol Up keys on the first inscription "Samsung" immediately after launching this restores root. It doesn't matter if the phone will reset 1 or 5 times. I will always lose root after a regular reset without a combination of PWR + Vol Up. I have enough of it. What am I doing wrong ?
