Disclaimer:

I am not responsible about any damage of any kind that this custom binary may cause.

Please pay attention to this post & related ones before proceeding and follow the guide correctly. I will not offer support for any issues that have been already stated.

Your Knox Warranty Bit will be blown once you flash this or others custom binaries, preventing you to use Knox features. It can't be resetted in any way, so think twice before flashing this.

Bugs can be reported here in XDA or via the community's Telegram Group. Please be more clear as possible and make sure you provide detailed info when reporting bugs.

What's 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 or GSIs to your device, manage the filesystem, and more.

How do I flash and set it up correctly?

Please notice that the following guide is meant for full stock devices, if you've already rooted your device you can skip it and flash directly the recovery without any extra steps.

Before starting, make sure to backup all your data and important files stored in your phone, since this procedure will format your data partition.

Download Odin3, Samsung's Android USB Drivers, the latest TWRP's tar and a disabled vbmeta image provided in the device's telegram group.

Make sure your phone's bootloader is unlocked!

Connect your phone to your PC and boot in Download Mode (power off your device and hold both volume up and volume down buttons).

Open Odin3, select the TWRP tar by clicking the "AP" button, reboot to download again, then select the vbmeta disabled tar by clicking again the "AP" button. This will format your data!

Reboot your phone in recovery mode: while it still plugged in your PC, hold both the power and volume up buttons.

Bugs:

Decryption will not work if no password/PIN/pattern is set in One UI.

For Android 13's decryption to work, flashing a disabled vbmeta image is necessary unless you're still on A12.
