Hope this will help you.

Flash the stock rom from samsung for your device. Dont do anything furthermore.

Then start your device.

Activate developer options in your stock rom.

Activate USB debugging and the OEM unlock.

Important - If the OEM unlock is missing do following -

Set your date and time at manual first (not net chosen).

Then set your date 8 days back.

For example - march the 9. down to march the 1.

Then search for an ota update of samsung.

After that it will show you that you have searched for the update.

Restart the device. Then set the date back to real time.

Search for an update for a second time.

After that you may be finding the oem unlock button in the developer menue.

Activate it.

fix now ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
I'm trying to download the rom stock but it's a zip file. how should i install it in odin, is it the same method as with twrp? I get the impression that it only supports tar.md5 files but not zip files.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
how should I do it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Nasty_z:
Extract the zip?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
first things first if your dl took 5 hours, hope you are expecting to check integrity flashing corrupt stock firmware wont get you anywhere.

so be sure to validate that.

zip contains the multiple files that go to the different slots in Odin.

also, what odin version are you using? should be at least 3.13.1

i have the feeling you should go read up on basic samsung rom managment and odin use. check the s9 forum for basic guides. once you can understand the jist of it, come back.

plus i re read back abit, you should flash twrp without reboot.(using odin)then manualy reboot your phone to recovery. Format data then flash magisk. the error you initially pointed to seems to be because of that. stock firmware is useless unless you need to back to stock. Not sure if there are any custom roms yet. so be happy on using Magisk and xposed till roms are being cooked.

Edit: choose to wipe everything in twrp too to see if you can get out of that loop your in.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
if I do that, I assume that it will end up in tar.md5 format

I would not need to reconvert it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] Geekser:
I hope I don't sound like a noob - but I didn't see anything in the OP regarding flashing DM Verity - after flashing TWRP - when you reboot to Recovery - is it necessary to Format Data and flash no DM Verity like on the S9Plus? Or is that not necessary any more?

---------- Post added at 01:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 AM ----------

You don't need to do anything with the files - just extract them from the ZIP file and using the LATEST ODIN - 3.13.1 - then put each of the files into the correct slot in ODIN and then flash them to your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
from what i gather format only. one thing some might not know is that if you plan to use magisk( most probable) you don't need to flash dm verity zip( because it takes care of keeping storage unencrypted or something). dont remember from which magisk version this was the case but it should theoretically still be true.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
excuse me but siding there was a small bug on the forum, the last two posts did not appear.

* yes, I use odin 3.13.1.

it's been a year that I went to samsung and I always discovered, with my Note 8, I did several times the manipulation and it always worked.

I have a very slow 5go connection in 3 or 4 hours that does not bother me.

I will re-read the guide odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
acctualy there is now a custom rom and the guide covers everything so dont bother to dl and go back to stock.

just follow steps and downlaod this rom;

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
thank you very much.

I saw it is my second solution but I am afraid that it does not work because twrp tells me that it can not get the file data, and I do not understand and suddenly I can not even not to make a wipe
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
find a way to get this file on your phone(using ext sd card):

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=281291

go to twrp and go to wipe menu and select FORMAT and then reboot and choose reboot to recovery.

now flash the file above that is on ext sd card.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
thank you very much.

the phone still does not start under android but I no longer have the data reading message.

do a wipe factory reset
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
I can not, I did not have time to make a backup (I have a bootloop when I start the system under android), to do that, I have to flash the recovery stock but I'm trying to download the custom DrKetan rom that I think I can flash with twrp
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
why would you need to do that? if you flash stock recovery you will loose twrp.

as it is, your system is not bootable anyways...so might as well wipe factory reset and have fun no?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
how to make a factory reset otherwise?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
twrp/wipe/slide the bottom slider to factory reset then reboot and cross your fingers. 1st boot might take a while
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] escourrounet:
it does not change anything, always the bootloop.

In a few minutes the download of the custom rom will be finished and I will be able to transfer it on my SD card for the flash

I have a small problem.

In TWRP i can not mount system anymore therefore also no Rom or backup works.

Tried to Odin Flash stockfirmware but then it stuck on set partition.

Anybody has a clue what i can do ?

I was able to mount manually my system and restore my backup

Problem solved

This is not going to be working well and needs to be adressed. In this day and age we really need auto sec-patching of our mobile devices with some kind of reliable package management. Way too many vulns released for android 8.1 the past year alone.

If you can only patch being dependent on third party ROM-releases, there's no way this will be remotely secure. This needs to go in the disclaimer for TWRP.

To root, you need to wipe data...

Since data can't be accessed due to the encryption...

You won't have any problems and latest version of magisk supports note 9...

Flash TWRP via Odin, reboot to recovery, delete data, reboot recovery, make a backup, install magisk through recovery, reboot to system...

Seriously, when I'm on a random train here in the EU and try blueborne with my laptop, I assure you 66% of the devices are still wide open for me. (I'm a CISSP and CEH by the way) I've once checked what kind of OS-es were on them, and I'd say about half is rooted ROMs here in Europe, especially when the train is full of students.

Only very few ROMs do OTA updates for security. If Samsung can be sued for negligence regarding their security-patching publications, it's only a matter of time until they come knocking on TWRP's door for the same. It all starts with recovery installs. A lot of unexperienced android owners just want root access in order to do this or use that, and they have no idea what security risk that entails.

Sure, you can claim 'warranty is void if you use this software', but that does not disqualify you from responsibility for the global outcomes and consequences. You want that on your conscience, fine, don't say you were not warned.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] bober10113:
irrelevance.

the reason is to take control.

TWRP dosent just get installed by accident you know...

People can do as they please with their phone and if they wish to do so for what ever the reason, they should. Liberty is a right.

did you know that you can have acces to quicker security patches by taking this 'control' over your phone?

some carriers dont update their firmware for months on end!

you have alot of research to do and assessments to correct.

Your views are skewed.

A final question

A final question :

There is or will be some root without having to make wipe ?. Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] geiti94:
someone that roots the phone dont care about security. the first one is me since i have bluetooth all time off and wifi too since i use only 4g+ (unlimited data plan) the real security problem is here only when using supersu because he sets the sepolicy completly to permessive. that means permessive kernel is not so a security problem but a full permessive sepolicy file is a security problem
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] jult:
Sorry, but you're very wrong there. The whole point of magisk and supersu is that it roots by demand only. It's similar to su - in linux, just elevation to the root level.

Anyway, 2 of my sisters rooted their phones because they wanted AdAway to work. I didn't even have to help them. 1 is very young. They definitely don't want it to be an insecure device.

As it stands, one of the reasons rooting in my circles is popular is precisely because it allows you to make your device *more* secure. The samsungs on this planet care a lot less about infosec than some of their up to date linux user-base..
