Confused - can I just "flashify" the bumped TWRP instead of ADB instal? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry if this is a ridiculous question, but I am still confused after many hours of reading.... I recently came from the Galaxy S4 to the G3 which of course came with 11c on it. I am planning on reverting back to 10b, rooting with STUMP, and then this is where I am confused. I have never used ADB before and have tried reading up on it, downloaded and installed SDK manager, but it is all Greek to me. Not helped by the fact that my computer is crappy slow and on the verge of being tossed out. Anyway, I've seen some youtube tutorials on using Flashify to flash the Bumped TWRP, avoiding using ADB. Seems easy....so, is there a downside to using Flashify instead of the ADB method?
Thanks

I used Flashify today, quick and simple.

Update. Flashify worked great to flash Bumped TWRP. I'm now rooted, have custom recovery, and am running Jasmine 3.0. Super easy to do and all working great. Thanks!

Soft brick on every reboot?

Have some quick questions.
I rooted my phone using this method:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlVCjtRUrgs&feature=youtube_gdata_player
After I root, I try to open Supersu but it says the binarys cannot be installed and it closes, also the "root access allow" prompt does not appear on any root applications.
They just get stuck at "searching for root rights."
Is there a preferred root method to use on this S4?
Which one works best?
Well anyway, I flashed wicked rom (because the phone IS rooted) and whenever I try to flash anything or merely even just a reboot, my phone soft bricks and I have to boot TWRP, wipe and install the rom again.
I only have this problem AFTER I have installed a custom rom.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

This is one of the reasons I went back to stock after trying out cm10.1 and 4.3 leak. I am kinda liking the features TW adds to Android. Just disable the apps you don't use or root stock and use TB to uninstall what you don't need.

Thank you sir for the reply.
I indeed found the problem.
It was the root method I was using.
I did the CF-AUTOROOT method and it canceled out all previous problems.

Thanks for the late reply.
I used the cable that came with the phone.
I've also used other cables for various other Odin flashes and all works as it should.
Pretty sure that's not a factor, and far from a problem.

It depends on what rom your on I think.
I'm on Santod's stock debloated rom and it works fine. I would not take anything for Flashify
or my Meenova sd card reader. Now I don't have to mess with adb or fastboot and I have removable storage.

Root Sprint Sm-T217S 7.0 tab

Hi, i recently won this tablet yesterday and wanted to root it. Have tried pretty much every non computer needed root app out there and none work. Even tried with odin, and i successfully installed twrp....but have no root which i didn't even think was possible lol. But every method for root i see is a few months old before the tab was updated to 4.4.2. So, is there even a root yet for KK? Because I've definitely looked...and if so, please point me in the right direction....thanks! ??
If you have twrp on it, then just flash the supersu zip from chainfire and you'll be rooted.

[Q]Did I do something wrong by not going the bump route for twrp

I have the vs985 version on tmobile. I downgraded from 12b to 10b using kdz method then rooted with stumproot. However I didn't use the bump method for twrp I used flashify for twrp. Everything is working well I've made backups and flashed several roms. Just curious did I do something wrong by not going the bump route and if so what could be the problems down the road?

One variant is unlocked and doesn't need anything bumped. I thought it was T-Mobile but I could be wrong.
You wouldn't have been able to flash things if anything wasn't right.
