Hello, XDA Developers. I was having some trouble with the TWRP Recovery. I have the latest version of ODIN and I have rooted my Galaxy S6 before and all. I'm running 6.0.1 on the g920p model. When I went to flash the recovery. It said it passed and was successful (I used the AP option). Then when I go to put it in recovery mode, it is the stock recovery and not the custom one. Is there anything I did wrong? I've tried other recoveries but non seemed to work. Also I've tripped my KNOX but I don't know if that affects it. Thanks for your help.
Unless you root your phone, it stock recovery will overwrite TWRP.
Flash TWRP again, but do not allow it to auto-reboot through ODIN. (Uncheck that box.) Reboot into Recovery, then flash SuperSU to gain root. Then reboot and TWRP will be there.
Follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...ide-how-to-root-marshmallow-sm-g920p-t3338694

I went back to odin to get a fresh of my gs3. I did the 4.1.1 update and now i have an issue.
I can't seem to install any recovery on my samsung galaxy s3 in order to root it.
I have tried just about all the downloadable clockworks out there and even tried twrp...its no go. I do not know why this is happening because I never had this problem before when rerooting my gs3.
Any one faced this before? suggestion?
You need to flash recovery via odin.
If you want just flash root66 lastest firmware which is in rooted version too.
Stock recovery is overwriting your custom recovery. Need to access recovery mode after you flash, but before the device can boot (so that the custom recovery can disable to automatic flashing script).

I am not quite sure what you are saying here about needing to access recovery mode after I flash...I flash the clockwork recovery mode and when i go to access it, i only see the stock.
I i reflashed odin again and decided to root using 4.0.4 ics...now it worked..I guess we can't flash over 4.1.1 anymore?
anyway, thank you both ^.^
The problem is with the newer roms, when your phone boots, your custom recovery is overwritten with stock recovery. This operation is done with a script that comes with the newer stock firmwares - it's built into the startup procedure. So when you flash a custom recovery with Odin, you need to drop to recovery mode before the phone ever gets a chance to boot into the OS, so that the custom recovery can disable this script. If the phone boots, it will wipe out your recovery. Do you understand now?

Oh now that make a lot of sense. So I was not suppose to reboot before going into recovery with 4.1.1...will keep that in mind next time!
Even though you're rooted, flash the 4.1 root66 in Odin. You don't want to go from ICS to JB via recovery, it doesn't flash all partitions. After you flash root66 in Odin, you will already be rooted. Then you can just flash a custom recovery.

If I remember correctly you can still root normally on the later builds, you just have to pop out you battery after you flash, don't let it auto-reboot, then you can put the battery back in and get to clockwork recovery.

First install a temperory CWM recovery by Odin and via that install which ever permanent recovery that u want this method helped me and i m sure will help u too.
Hit thanks if it helped
1-Use Root Genius Application to One-click root your Grand i9082 (www.rootgenius.com) it's a windows app, (you need to install Grand i9082's drivers on your PC before rooting)
2-Download the Recovery's image (.img file) and transfer on device's SD card or internal memory
3-Download "Rashr" from Google Play
4-open Rashr
5-Make backup of stock recovery (incase something goes wrong)
6-Click Install recovery from storage
7-Select the Recovery's image (.img file) in Rashr and install your recovery
8-Reboot and enjoy!
Recovery Mode not working
I succesfully rooted my i9082 using Kingo root. Then, I tried flashing CWM using Odin3 in download mode. Even after successfully flashing, the phone doesn't boot to recovery, it stays stuck at the Samsung boot logo. Even the stock recovery seems to have disappeared. The phone boots normally and into download mode, but I can't seem to access recovery or even bootloader. I have tried several different custom recoveries, and my custom BIN down is at 7 counts. Some applications I got off the Play Store say that I have no available recoveries installed/recognized. What do I do?
I also have same problem......!!!

Flash recovery again, try using Rashr app. If not work, might want to try flashing thru Odin.

I've tried to flash CWM Recovery and TWRP Recovery and it doesn't work. Odin says it's all ok, but I just always end up on stock recovery. I have the Canadian variant.
Edit: Nevermind. I managed to root it without a custom recovery, and then installed TWRP Manager from the app store, and got the custom recovery from there.
I am running Stock PD1 unrooted.
Is Rooting PD1 as simple as using Odin to flash the latest Version of TWRP? Will doing this install the necessary files, or is there a different method for build?
UPDATE: I flashed the latest version TWRP using Odin. Everything worked, except that when I booting into bootloader there was no TWRP, it was stock android bootloader.
What did I do wrong?
Right after flashing TWRP, you need to boot into recovery to boot into TWRP, if not, the phone boots normally restoring the Stock Recovery. As soon as the phone reboots, after the flashing TWRP, hold the Volume Up + Home Button + Power until it boots into Recovery mode. Should boot up into TWRP. Once TWRP boots the first time it will overwrite the stock recovery and become the default recovery. As for Rooting the Note 4, the only safe method is using Systemless Root, I just flashed this custom stock rom and all is done for you. Here is the thread link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-t3352832
Went to flash TWRP through ODIN and got a message- custom recovery blocked by A/L. Any solution please?
Same here. Get a FAIL with any TWRP flash. Same with Stock Rom Tar as well. Stuck with no ability to flash.
Recently I flashed through TWRP Resurrection Remix new 7.1.1 Nougat on my Tmobile Note3. Was working great. I had the newest twrp 3.0. I was looking at a custom ROM that said I would need CWM so I downloaded CWM from Google play and I ran it. I decided to back up through CWM and it rebooted my phone. My phone rebooted into recovery, and is stuck in recovery bootloop now. It keeps rebooting into recovery. I tried to fix by taking out battery for a long time but when I turn it on againit goes back to recovery in the loop. It can power into download mode. I don't know what to do in that mode though. Please help me. If I'm to use a computer to flash a different OS please include all links to find the downloads as well as the links for finding the usb drivers. Anyone know what I'm to do?

I find it odd that you would find a ROM that suggests CWM instead of TWRP, but the way I see it is you go back to Resurrection Remix or try to flash the new ROM you found with TWRP (2.8.7 is recommended)
You can download the .tar file for TWRP 2.8.7 here: https://dl.twrp.me/hlte/twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.4.img.tar.html
For clearer instructions, you can visit this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2672393
These are instructions to flash back to stock, root and install TWRP 2.8.7
I suggest right after doing this, you flash the ROM you want, that will guarantee a "cleaner" installation of the ROM
Good luck!

Thank you for your help. I did all the clear instructions from the thread. I couldn't get the CF auto root to stick. Also couldn't find a surfboard for TWRP 2.8.7, they only have 2.8.0 on the TWRP site, or TWRP 3.0. Ultimately I've got my original factory stock lollipop back. I'm no longer rooted. I had rooted before through KingRoot. I tried again and it says that I'm out on a list for root for my phone. So my phone works again. I guess I should be happy with that.
If you want to root, you could try flashing cfautoroot with Odin.

I did try to flash CF auto root with Odin after I flashed back to the stock ROM. But it didn't work. It stayed stuck on the T mobile screen for a very long time. So I just gave up trying to root again and stayed with the stock ROM without root. Thanks. Maybe I'll try again and see if it'll work next time.
Flashing twrp with Odin and flashing supersu from twrp had always worked for me.

Will that root my device?
Yes. When I want root with stock recovery, I use cfautoroot. When I want a custom recovery and root, I flash twrp and supersu.

OK. Thanks. Also, which version of TWRP? I can't seem to find a download for 2.8.7.0, only for 2.8.0.0 and 3.0 on the official TWRP site. Also where can I find SuperSu? Do I flash SuperSU with TWRP once TWRP is on phone? I read somewhere that the best version for TWRP is 2.8.7.0, but I can't find it anywhere.
Twrp for T-Mobile note 3: https://dl.twrp.me/hltetmo/
Flash twrp using Odin. Olen Odin, do not check anything except f reset time. Flash twrp. When you see the word reset in the status window, remove USB cable from phone, remove battery, replace battery, use button combination to boot into recovery, connect to computer, copy supersu to phone memory, flash supersu from twrp.
