[Samsung Galaxy Grand Neo Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recov] GuestK00368:
Team Win Recovery Project 3.1.1-0

This is for the International GT-I9060I (Grand Neo Plus ) models only! Do not flash on Non Plus models!​

WARNING #1: Flashing a custom recovery to your device will trip the ODIN warranty bit on your phone. Check with your mobile provider to see if they will still cover warranty on ODIN bit triggered devices. If you understand this risk, continue on.

You generally don't have to worry, as it's incredibly hard to brick a Samsung device, and physical damage warranties should be exempt from ODIN Mode triggering.

SOLUTION: Follow the full rooting steps below, in order, to allow system modifications without the risk of a boot loop!

WHAT IS TWRP? (Really?) :rolleyes:

Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.

It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.

Hitting Thanks button will help and encourage me to work.

There is a download link there, as well as instructions on how to flash it.

I highly recommend using Odin to flash when possible.

You can find a zip containing Odin as well as Samsung's Mobile drivers here:

https://build.nethunter.com/samsung-tools/

Extract Odin_3.12.3.zip to your computer.

Install Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers for Odin to find your device.

Download a .tar.md5 image

Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, select reboot from the power menu and hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons while your device reboots.

Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.

Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot and

disable Auto-Reboot

, then press [Start].

Hold [Volume Down] + [Home] + [Power] to get out of Download mode and immediately swap to [Volume Up] when the screen blanks.

If you don't see then TWRP boot splash try again from step 6.

At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.

By swiping right, you will trigger dm-verity, and if you don't follow the next step you will be unable to boot!

If you are going to root your device and follow the rest of these steps, then it is safe to swipe right and enable modifications.

If you want to be rooted with SuperSU:

Download the latest SuperSU by Chainfire.

Without exiting TWRP, transfer the SuperSU zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.

You will need an external SDcard for this method, if you don't have one you will have to use adb sideload to install SuperSU.

KNOWN ISSUES

[*]MTP not working in TWRP 3.1.1-0

* MTP, known as Media Transfer Protocol, is the same way you transfer files from your PC to your device when booted into system.
