WARNING : Flashing a custom recovery to your device will trip the Knox warranty bit on your phone. Check with your mobile provider to see if they will still cover warranty on Knox 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 Knox triggering.

WHAT IS TWRP?

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.

Downloads

Download the TWRP image :

TWRP 3.3.1-1

Direct Download Page

Download Odin and the drivers :

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/

Download RMM bypass and no-verity-opt-encrypt zip files :

you will need to flash this no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip to be able to boot the device without encryption all data is going to be lost.

you will need to flash this RRM Bypass by Messa to disable RMM without it on android 8 you will not be able to boot after restart .

FULL STEPS FOR OBTAINING ROOT

follow these instructions:

1- In your ROM, go to Settings -> About device. Tap 7 times on Build number to enable Developer options.

2- Now go to Settings -> Developer options. (above About device)

3- You need to enable OEM unlock, otherwise you might end up with boot problems or be unable to flash later on.

4- Extract Odin_3.12.3.zip to your computer.

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

6- Download the .tar image of TWRP

7- 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.

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

9- 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.

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

10.5- now flash RMM-Bypass and no-verity zip files its very important .

11. If you want to be rooted Use Magisk:

Download the latest Magisk.

Without exiting TWRP, transfer the Magisk 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 Magisk.zip

12 . Go to [Reboot] -> [System].

Wait 2-5 minutes for your device to finish setting itself up.

13. flash the no-opt-no-verity.zip to disable the encryption if you want to be able to access your data via TWRP .
