I was having issues and wanted to switch to the systemless SU so I decided to start over fresh. used toolkit to restore stock image and unrooted. tried to install newest twrp using toolkit but it kept coming up with bugdroid with red triangle and exclamation mark. Did some research and few places said you have to go back to lp. so I downloaded factory image and went back to lp unrooted and locked bootloader. unlocked, rooted and installed twrp everything was good. I extracted the newest 6.0.1 factory image and installed each component separately except for the recovery. now I am on 6.0.1 and try to go to recovery and bugdroid with red triangle and using toolkit I cannot get the newest twrp to stick. my sdk is updated.
any ideas on what to do?
thanks

Never trust a recovery installed by a tool kit. Grab the recovery img from the site and flash it manually.
all i have now is stock recovery. whats the best way to manually install twrp
go into fastboot and flash it. you have to be in your bootloader to flash via fastboot. you put the file in the same window as your fastboot program, then type.. fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img, and that will flash twrp. if you type fastboot boot recovery recoveryname.img then itll only boot into recovery one time, thats what your toolkit did.
Wugfresh Toolkit works great for me and I used it for 6.0.1
Make sure you flash permrecovery file provided by the toolkit, it prompts this during the steps.
If the copies of factory img or recovery provided by the toolkit are not working one easy way is download your own, the toolkit allows you to use your own files and not the one it obtains.

Don't use toolkits. I recommend yoiu follow @simms22's solution.

when you have root, you can always use an app, like flashify, to flash twrp recovery. but you need to have root first.

I have tried with and without perm recovery checked, I had the newest twrp img file so I choose other and selected it, I even used the option for one time recovery boot with twrp and then flashed twrp within it like I was updating twrp and still nothing. I am going to try fast boot itself without the tool kit.
Is there any other part of the stock factory image that would update the recovery? I didn't install it coming from lp but it still went back to stock instead of staying on twrp

no. but when you flash the full factory image, stock recovery will replace twrp. if you just want to update, flashing the system.umg and boot.img will work, and youll keep twrp.
This is why we don't use toolkits.
Boot to bootloader mode
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <recovery filename>
Where <recovery filename> is the path and filename of the twrp image you downloaded
After flashing use the arrow keys to boot into your newly installed recovery
Take a backup of your phone
Use recovery to boot android
Reboot to recovery with custom power menu options, or by opening a console on your phone and typing in reboot recovery
Post here to tell me that I am right, and thank me.
If you don't reboot to recovery from the bootloader, it will likely be restored back to the OEM recovery.

well, thats how you should flash recovery. but its not the reason that we dont use toolkits. we dont use toolkits for several reasons.. 1. they mess up 2. doing it properly is just as fast if not faster 3. newbs think that toolkits are made for them to use. well, they are wrong. toolkits teach you absolutely nothing, which is the worst for beginners.

thats why after going to lp and getting twrp working I flashed system, boot, and newest radio independently and skipped over recovery but for some reason it reverted back.
just using fastboot by itself worked great thanks for the help

if you skipped the recovery.img, your recovery should have stayed.. oh, never mind, i just remembered a file that you need to remove after the first boot, or itll install the stock recovery after the first reboot. its called recovery-from-boot.bak. if you remove that on first boot, youll be fine
This is really not organized at all... there's no site or link dedicating this idlekernel twrp for the 920t
Every 6.0.1 3.0.2.1 twrp tar I flash just reboots stock recovery.
Is there any reputable direct links ?Or is this just a Unikernel flash like 5.1.1?
There's only so many links to 3.0.2.1 twrp that's supposed to boot up twrp but it won't. What's the method really... the only one listed in general don't work for me !
I see links for spacex kernel that roots 920f but not 920t
What am I doing wrong I've odin the 3.0.2.1 twrp file 5 times from the general section and it just boots up stock 6.0.1 recovery

im in same situation as him, ive tried that and it still hangs in startup logo. it says in startup logo , recovery is not seandroid enforcing. every time after i flash and do the vol up home and power. i did managed to root the s6 on 6.0.1 using cf auto root and flash twrp recovery using flashify., but no luck. is there a kernel or a certain twrp file that I can flash via odin?

tmobile s7 edge wont boot into twrp recover
I downloaded the recovery img and installed it using flashify and I am rooted on apd8, i cannot boot into recovery at all. I tried manually and through flashify and rom manger. When i hit boot to recovery it just reboots the phone like normal. It flashes saying booting to recovery in blue in the upper left corner but never actually boots into recovery what am i doing wrong?
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.

have twrp .img in sd card and install click on image tab.. then select recovery and flash it.
once it flashes i just flash superSU and get root.

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...

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.
Hello guys
So I have a N910T3 with baseband N910T3UVS3EPK2. My phone has never been rooted or touched before. I would like to install TWRP so heres what I've done so far.
1.) Enable USB debugging, oem unlock
2.) Downloaded TWRP for note 4 tmobile
3.) Install ADB Drivers
4.) Downloaded ODIN and loaded it with TWRP img.
5.) It downloaded on my phone, and after saying "PASS", I restarted the phone.
6.) If I go to recovery, Stock recovery is still there... Why is that TWRP is not installed?
Thank you.

Go to odin options and uncheck auto reboot.
Flash twrp recovery in odin.
Once odin shows pass remove battery and insert again.
Press 3 buttons simontenesly ( volume up+home+power) until Samsung logo shows then let go all buttons.
You will boot into twrp for sure.
Reason why your twrp was not installed because if you dont uncheck auto reboot in odin options the system will rewrite stock recovery if your device reboot after flash twrp.
it worked. nice
Cannot find TWRP .tar or .md5 files for Odin
When I go to download TWRP for my N910T Galaxy Note 4 T-Mobile, running EQB1 firmware, I only see various TWRP versions that are .img files; none that are .tar or .md5 that ODIN wants. Example: twrp-3.0.2-0-tbltetmo.img
So where do I find an ODIN compatible version?
Thanks.
i have flashed via odin about a hundred times by now. today i downloaded the new android 10 update because before i was flashing 9 still.
but updating doesn't help, let me tell you what my problem is. whenever i patch the AP file in magisk manager then flash via odin to my then stocked phone i get rooted but am not able to flash anything to recovery. for example:
FLASHING TWRP from the phone never works and hasn't worked a single time.
u can flash the default twrp from the official app which results in a boot loop.
u can flash the magisk_patched.img (after having put official twrp.img through magisk manager)
by entering this into a SU terminal: # f=/storage/emulated/0/Download/magisk_patched.img; dd if=$f of=/dev/block/sda15 bs=$(stat -c%s $f)
but that also results in a boot loop.
flashing default twrp tar via odin does work however it isn't patched via magisk because that AGAIN doesn't work, not even with odin (for those asking "how do you flash .img through odin" i heard success stories from others that executing tar command in linux just archives the .img and if it's named recovery.img inside the tar archive odin has no problem flashing... this is what i did)
anyway i wanted twrp so i could flash my favorite custom rom onto the device, but i'l have to do with rooted stock rom for now
