I'm seeing a bunch of different version of Odin, no reliable-looking links, and rumors of malware. Where can I find a safe version of it?
I'm just trying to root an S10e on Android 11 using Magisk.
I'm using 3.14.1 from here https://odindownload.com/download/ which is recommended by https://www.xda-developers.com/update-firmware-any-samsung-phone/

Hello,
I am looking for a guide to root and install TWRP on Sprint Note 5 upgraded to Android 7.0.
Some background information:
Note 5 was on Android 5.11 and was having random reboots, caused by unstable Noble kernel.
I used the following guide to root, install TWRP and stable Beastmode kernel.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-note5/general/how-to-root-instructions-t3187895
Note 5 went south after i attempted to install Xposed on rooted 5.1.1.
I experienced bootloops and was never able to boot in 5.1.1 ever again.
I failed to flash stock 5.1.1 to Note 5, despite multiple tar's and versions of ODIN.
I though my phone was unrecoverable.
Fast forward 2 days and i was able to successfully flash Android 7.0 via ODIN.
I can successfully boot into Android 7.0, though i prefer to be rooted.
Now i need to root Android 7.0, install TRWP, upgrade to stable kernel, and install Xposed, if possible.
Knox has already been tripped and I was not going to use Samsung Pay anyway.
Phone details:
Model number: SM-N920P
Software version: N920PVPU3DQC5 (Nougat 7.0)
Hardware version: N920P.04
Baseband version: N920PVPU3DQC5
Build Number: NRD90M. N920PVPU3DQC5
Please let me know if more information is needed.
Thank you in advance.

Use Odin to root with c.f. auto root just Google cf auto root and download the file for your phone you know the rest. After being rooted you can install twrp with the official app in the play store they give you simple instructions but what they don't tell you is DO NOT FLASH THE .img.tar file FLASH the .img file only .tar files are for pc and will soft brick you. Again FLASH the .img file to recovery. Bang you have twrp if you can't get into recovery download quick reboot from play store works great im rooted with twrp on note 5 7.0 nougat that's all I can confirm. I accomplished this all by reading the forums for 2 days
Anything with CF Auto Root is obsolete. Just follow this guide: http://galaxynote5root.com/galaxy-n...galaxy-note-5-on-android-7-0-nougat-w-magisk/
SAMSUNG ANTI ROOT REMOVAL OR ANY OTHER SUPER USER APP IS NOT NEEDED ANYMORE. JUST INSTALL THE MAGISK .ZIP AND REBOOT.
Files are:
Latest TWRP: https://dl.twrp.me/nobleltespr/
Magisk 15.3: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
This will work for ALL NOUGAT builds, including the latest DRA1 (I've tested it myself) This phone is over 2 years old so development is kinda dead to be honest. There is only one custom kernel available here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...nel-twisted-note-7-0-nougat-april-15-t3590280

Its not obsolete I got a free hotspot buddy. I dont need supersu remover because i dont care about fancy samsung or andriod pay i will continue to use cf auto root until its exhausted because i have never bricked a phone using it
Thank you all for your replies.
I was able to root via CF Auto Root and installed TWRP recovery.
Does the free hotspot need to be flashed via Recovery?
Thank you in advance.
This will be my first phone I'm rooting, so I don't have much experience with this. I plan on installing Magisk, so I was curious if I can still upgrade the OS after rooting or should I upgrade then root. Thank you for your help!
You can update stock firmware at any time using Odin https://updato.com/how-to/how-to-install-an-official-samsung-stock-firmware-using-odin
Note: It's an old article and links an old version of Odin, make sure to download the latest version
As for root and Magisk, the USA S7's have a locked bootloader so you can't install magisk. Root is possible but limited https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s7/development/easyroot-unroot-t3859760
If you go too far ahead in firmware version, the methods used for root are patched. So if you're going to try it, make sure you flash an older version in Odin.
I wonder if anyone could help me out with something; I have a galaxy s10e exynos model with Android 9 installed and i'm rooted. Now I want to upgrade to android 10 via odin. Is there something I need to do first? Do I relock the bootloader or can I just flash the new firmware on the device?
i don't know if it's been late but you need to download the Android 10 stock firmware for your model. Using magisk, patch the AP file and flash the patched AP file alongside the required files for Odin.
read more here;
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#additional-info
Don't have any experience with upgrading while rooted, but as a warning, I updated with an unlocked bootloader (nothing changed other than that), and the update to 10 bricked my phone. I just sent it back afterwards, but I vaguely recall that it would have been recoverable, but just as a warning not to do the OTA with an unlocked bootloader.
i read old topics, left with questions so i wanna ask them.
1: is there working root for this phone?
2: if there is, how?
i already tried with an old phone and i wiped android entirely so im skeptical about everything at this point

There probably isn't a binary 5 android 9. If you can unlock the boooader, you can use the modified version of Odin and flash Android 9 regardless of what binary it has.

Yes, the bootloader is unlocked. But what do you mean by "modified version of odin"
Thanks for your reply

There is this:
Patched Odin 3.13.1
For those looking for a modified, modded, or patched odin that is a newer build than all the fake and renamed prince comsy 3.12.3 versions floating around. I patch recent Odin versions to offer similar functionality to the princecomsy; in that...
forum.xda-developers.com
And there is the "Prince Comsy" version.

Now just flash the software, despite the difference of binary

Try it, it can only work and you get what you want or it fails to flash and nothing happens. If it ifails and won't reboot, flash your Android 10 firmware and it should restore your device then you can try again. You may or may not need to/want to try extracting the Android 9 firmware files and the Android 10 firmware files then putting together your own modified Android 9 firmware using different parts of the Android 9 and the Android 10 firmware, mixing and matching the bootloader, kernel and system .img files until you get a combination that works.
