I have SM-N920CD variant and on stock Android M 6.0.1, Region:THR CSC:N920COJV2BPBA
I tried to flash TWRP through Odin in order to root and flash SkyHigh kernel but got stuck on Samsung logo bootscreen after flashing, I re-flashed my stock firmware to revive my phone and got it back working. I tried two different versions of Odin "Odin3 v3.10.7 and Odin3_v3.10.6" but still same results, I also used different PCs and downloaded TWRP twice.
Am I doing anything wrong or it is just me?
Did you try booting back to recovery and cleaning cache and rebooting. Sounds a little too basic I know but it has worked for me often enough. Just a thought.

Try flashing again - this time ensure keep system as "read-only" option when you first flash TWRP. Then in TWRP recovery mode (straight after flashing & before rebooting), ensure that "system" is ticked/selected in the "Mount" option in TWRP menu - now reboot to system (you will need to tick/select "system" in Mount option each time if you boot into TWRP recovery mode).

I can't even get to recovery, I can either get to download mode or stuck on bootscreen. I think it is the recovery getting messed up.

I tried to enter recovery before rebooting and after flashing but with no luck. I assume to use the typical method (power+up+home). Am I missing something?

Start all over again by re-flashing back to stock ROM/stock recovery and try again via Odin to flash TWRP - Make sure to go into recovery (TWRP) mode away straight away by 'power+vol up+home' buttons rather than booting into system.
Then mount system on in TWRP before rebooting to system - This worked for me, no probs since.
Also, ensure you have the correct TWRP .tar for your model (and ??maybe try an older Odin version for flashing TWRP).

I tried that but nothing happened, it kept me on download mode otherwise system is booting.
Is it possible to enter recovery directly from download mode without power off?

I don't think you can go from download mode directly to TWRP recovery mode without power off.......... Try re-booting from download mode but before it re-starts quickly hold 'power+vol up+home'.
Have you tried starting from scratch i.e back to stock recovery, and tried flashing with an older version of Odin?

i have tried that, and got an issues related to mount the storage as well, but able to overcome all that
and now the phone went from stuck on "Samsung" logo, into a loopboot
all this with the Samsung Stock ROM
but at the moment i install Lineage ROM, it works immediately
tried my best to make it work with samsung stock rom, but i couldn't
So I connected my LG-H811 running stock ROM 20p to my PC successfully and ran adb and fastboot to transfer twrp and supersu over to the phone internal drive. So far so good. I couldn't get twrp to flash properly, so I simply did a temporary boot and got twrp to run without flashing it as a recovery. Then I used twrp to flash supersu (SuperSU-v1.94.zip). The problem is that when I try to reboot, it says the superSU binary is not installed. So I tried newer versions of supersu (SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip and SuperSU-v2.48.zip). Each time with these newer versions it soft bricked the phone again and required a full stock ROM restore. Specifically, it hangs either on the black LG screen or the white T-mobile screen, while the blue LED flashes on and off every few seconds. To unbrick it each time, I did a restore with stock ROM H811V20p_00_0913.kdz with LGUP. That got it working again with stock ROM, but no root. There must be a way to get superSU to install on 20p (and even get the twrp recovery to flash). I unlocked the bootloader, and it seems to load, so apparently that's not the issue. Thanks.

Thanks raptorddd, but that's exactly the problem. I did flash superSU using twrp, and it seemed to install fine. I expected that I would simply get root as you say, but that's not what happened. The first time with SuperSU v1.94 newly installed, the phone rebooted normally, and the superSU app showed up, but it didn't work because it said there was no binary installed. The newer versions of superSU simply soft-bricked the phone. So I need a way to get superSU to work and not soft-brick the phone. Is there a preferred version of superSU for LG-H811 ROM 20p, or some obscure setting that makes it work?

Thanks -- that's the the exact same version of superSU I used earlier (I even ran a diff, and the files are identical). After I flashed this version of superSU on the p20 stock ROM with twrp, it soft-bricked my phone. By that I mean it got to the boot page, and the blue LED pulsed on and off every few seconds, and it never got beyond that. When I flashed superSU v1.94, at least it booted afterward, but when I opened the superSU app, it didn't even give me the option to update binaries -- it just said the binary isn't installed, and so superSU can't run, it exited.
Maybe I'll try flashing an earlier stock ROM and see if that allows superSU to flash and run properly -- not sure which ones are compatible given the anti-rollback versioning.

try a custom kernel it has superSU installed.. i say imperium kernel.
try first the custom kernel.. if not you can only downgrade to 20o. no lower or youll hard brick phone.

OK so I finally got root. The key was to copy over this file to the phone's internal memory:
Imperium_Kernel_G4_H811_v4.8a.zip
Then:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img
Then in TWRP, flash the imperium kernel. After that everything worked with root, though I still can’t get the twrp recovery to flash properly. Having root is good enough for now though.
EDIT: just now got TWRP to flash using flashify, so everything works. On to unlocking...
can you please share what guide you used to unlock and root this phone? I'm having issues on finding it, im on the newest update

May I ask where you downloaded the Imperium_Kernel_G4_H811_v4.8a.zip
Did "fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img" work?
What version of SuperSu did you install? I am planning on using "SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip"

You can get the latest Imperium kernel (5.0 currently) from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/kernel-imperium-kernel-g4-v1-0-t3282915
Yes, fastboot boot from the twrp image was kind of a hack, but it worked. As for SuperSU, I tried v1.94 and SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip. Both soft-bricked the phone. Maybe the newest SuperSU will work, but I wouldn't count on it given that several previous versions didn't.

I need to flash twrp and root from 20p also. One question to clarify exactly what you did,
Did you originally try flashing TWRP from TWRP? You said you flashed root from TWRP but I want to verify if you tried flashing TWRP from TWRP like:
> adb reboot bootloader
> fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img
then in TWRP:
> install click on image tab.. then select twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img recovery and flash it.
> reboot recovery (should reboot to TWRP you just flashed)
Just to be totally clear doing > fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-h811.img leaves your stock recovery intact and just loads TWRP temporarily.
Or did you actually flash TWRP from TWRP and it didn't flash properly?
Thanks!

Yes, just loads TWRP temporarily. Later I installed some apps that flashed the recovery successfully, either rashr or flashify (I don't remember which)
I hope you have all the files and pc is reading your phone in adb.
Keep the downloaded twrp file in your adb folder with dwonloaded name (Ex:1234twrp.img)
Copy the file and keep in phone internal storage with names recovery.img
adb reboot bootloader (wait for phone to boot in bootloader ofcourse)
fastboot boot 1234twrp.img (whatever your twrp img file name would be)
Now you are in twrp recovery page in the phone.
Tap Install > Images (bottom right) > select recovery.img >
Now you are in next screen where options to slect recovery or boot
Tap recovery and swipe you will see [image flash complete]
Now twrp is permeant. You can restart in recovery without PC. (Tested)
I have flashed more than 6 methods to install supersu. Keep trying and reply.
I followed the steps in this guide attempting to flash a rom. https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...lopment/rom-stock-debloated-deodexed-t3423387
I was able to flash the BL and modem no problem. I proceeded to flash twrp and have been stuck at boot since. I can only go back into DL mode. Read a few places that said to reinstall rom. How do i go about installing a rom via odin? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Okay. Here's what you do...
First, boot to DOWNLOAD MODE. Once in Download Mode, press the keys again like you are booting to Download Mode (VOLUME DOWN + HOME + POWER)
Watch the screen while holding the keys. When the screen goes blank, switch to the key combination for booting RECOVERY (VOLUME UP + HOME + POWER) and hold them until the TWRP screen appears. If the TWRP screen does not appear then we know TWRP didn't stick when you flashed it via Odin.
If the TWRP screen appears, release the keys and let it continue to boot to TWRP.
If TWRP does not boot, then I'd suggest flashing the stock firmware for your device. You can download the stock firmware for your device from www.sammobile.com or from www.updato.com
Sammobile.com is a very slow download unless you pay for a premium account. Updato is much faster. Make sure to select the correct region for your device before downloading the firmware.
Which version of Odin are you using? I've been using 3.12.3 and haven't had any problems at all with this version.
Once you habe downloaded the stock firmware, open Odin. Boot your device to Download Mode and then connect your USB cable. Make sure Odin shows you are connected.
Next, click the OPTIONS TAB in Odin and un-check
AUTO REBOOT. Then, select the AP TAB in Odin and navigate to the firmware file you have downloaded. Let Odin do its thing to verify the file and click START to begin the flash. Once the flash is complete, disconnect the USB Cable and press the key combination for booting to Download Mode again. Once the screen goes black, switch to the key combination for booting RECOVERY. Once in recovery you can select the reboot option to boot your device normally and start fresh from there and attempt to flash TWRP again.
Also, which Note 5 do you have?

Hey, thanks for your response. So I was able to get my System back to working. I had to downoad the stock firmware through sammobile. I ended up paying for the fast download (30days of service) Well ill keep updato in mind if this every happens again. Im on N920TUVU4EQE1 For the n920T since i had already flashed the modem and bootloader before i flashed twrp. I'm on Odin 3.12.3 as well.
"This device uses dm-verity!
This means that swiping to allow system modifications will prevent you from being able to boot if you are using the stock kernel. In order to bypass dm-verity's boot prevention, you will have to install a kernel that has dm-verity disabled in the fstab."
Apparently the kernel i was using wasnt allowing twrp to install. So now i have to figure out how to root my new stock firmware and install recover so i can flash a rom.

What you have to do is this...
Flash TWRP, swipe to allow system modifications and then flash the no_verity_opt_encrypt_5.1.zip available from
https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/
This zip will disable dm-verity and forced encryption in the fstab and allow you to boot normally.
Once this had been done you can flash the root zip of your choice and go to town with debloating, custom ROM's and custom kernels.

When i flashed TWRP i unchecked the Auto-Reboot option. did a key combo to get to twrp but it didnt ask me to swipe to allow system modification.

Glad it's working for you. Good job. Now you can make your Note 5 your own. I'm an S6 Edge Plus user. We use the exact same ROM as the Note 5. We just use a different kernel. Happy flashing. If you run into any issues don't hesitate to ask me or anyone else here at XDA. This is a great place to read and learn especially with your Note 5. If a problem has occurred before you can bet that someone has posted about it and you will find a solution.
the phone initially booted up normally. and i power off try to enter recovery mode but i got bootloop , is there any way to get into odin mode , recovery mode is broken ( i flashed recovery with odin it took 15 minutes so i click stop and it crashed ) my phone is sm m20
I've enabled USB Debugging and Unlocked OEM, downloaded the latest Odin and the correct baseband version of CF-AR from firmware.mobi. I've installed the USB drivers by installing Smart Switch. Odin recognizes the Note 5 when I enter download and flashing the image.tar.md5 extracted from the CF-AR zip is successful, taking about one minute.
But when the phone then auto boots, the phone boots again once after a few seconds and then proceeds to load Nougat, no SuperSu app in the tray. When I run the root.bat same result.
When I flash the SuperSu zip (2.82, downloaded from XDA) from TWRP (keep read only) the flash succeeds in about one minute, but when I reboot again no SuperSu app.
What might be going on?
tried cf-autoroot on ma n920c nougat same. not rooted, no supersu. downloaded it manually said device not rooted. ODIN flashed successfully.

2-boot in to download mode and flash vbmeta.tar via odin in ap
3-after that reboot to recovery by pressing vol+ and power and clear data and cache in stock recovery
4- reboot again in to download mod and now flash twrp via odin in ap
5-reboot to twrp recovery by pressing vol+ and power and slide right to modify. Click wipe, click format data, type yes after that go back and reboot to recovery. slide right to modify, click mount, if mount system partition read-only is checked, back out and reboot back to recovery and check mount again, it should now be unchecked. . Now click Vendor so its checked and system should be unchecked, back out.
6- Copy Magisk 20.1 to the External sd card. In TWRP click install, select storage and choose micro sd card, click on magisk and slide right to confirm. (you must have vendor checked in mount or it wont flash properly). when done, click all way back click reboot to download.
7- now flash stcok recovery tar file via odin and reboot your device to system
8-after your device start run Magisk and update it by install options

Try again flash 4 file frimware and let device start to system after that reboot to download mod and flash vbmeta.tar and let your device start to system
After that reboot to stock recovery and wipdata and cach and reboot to download mod and now flash twrp
The wrong is with your bootloader if you cant fix it try to search your problem in google
You are not only one have this problem
I did every thing from scratch. Even lock and unlock the bootloader.
I am tring to make sence. Vbmeta is "verified boot". So the idea is trick the phone with our own bootloader so that we can flash twrp.
Since i cant flash twrp, vbmeta should be updated.
Am i right?

Unlock bootloader, factory reset, unsure oem is unlocked and grayed out in settings >developer options.
Then flash vbmeta, manual reboot to download mode, flash twrp, boot to twrp, factory reset in twrp , flash magisk zip then factory reset again, now boot system.
The vbmeta you flash is empty and allows flashing third party zips.
Hiii, i did almost everthing, but when i boot in recovery and go to mount, system partition read-only is checked. already tried 4 for times reboot to recovery but still checked.
Yes, i slide right to allow to modify. Any suggestion ?

Go ahead with the steps. Ignore mount system.
Let's see what happens
Worst scenario, you soft brick the phone or bootloop which can be fixed by flashing stock rom again.
Make sure you have stock rom and you backup your data
Any way to pass SatefyNet?
