No need to cry,. Even i have faced that..
First find out a stock Rom using odin mode then
Switch off your mobile
Then press Menu+Vol Down+Power button.. Now odin mode ll start
Now connect ur mobile to pc thru usb cable
Now open odin Sw, the system ll automatially detects ur device(follow the software installation process)
Then use the downloaded stock Rom to flash ur mobile.
It may take only 5 to 10 minutes for installation..hope it ll works for u.
Sorry for my English if u feel hard to understand

please tell me how could you solve this problem and flash stock rom without using odin? i'm unable to access recovery mode and my device is not readable on pc even with drivers installed
If your device is not recognised try to install drivers again if its still their it might be hard brick
So you need jig cable or go to service center in india they will charge 170 rupee
i am so perfect at sleeping i can do it with my eyes closed

I too faced the same.problem ...
where I was not able to go to recovery....
and my phone was also not detected in pc...It was fixed with these silly steps...
I did this:
Frst I uninstalled the Samsung drivers...
restarted the pc...
Installed the drifers...
then I used another USB cable and connected to the USB slot behind one of my pc...
then went to download mode and the phone was detected and also successfully flashed stock Rom.....
Hope this works for you too...

Bad article.
This is what it reads in the middle of the article:
From the path “Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging” enable the SUB Debugging Mode. Minimum charge left in your phone is 30% or else there is a risk of device getting turned off in the middle of firmware update increases which may even brick your Galaxy S3.

Update Galaxy NotePRO 12.2 P900 to Android 5.0.2 Lollipop
(Not Tripping Knox)
Make sure you downloaded and installed the Samsung usb drivers beforehand (http://www.android.gs/download-samsung-usb-drivers-for-android/)
Download the firmware and extract it. ( http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-P900 or https://www.samdownloads.de/downloads/sm-p900/) (For USA users with tripped knox (no OTA update) just odin the "cellular south" SM-p900 5.0.2 sammobile rom.)
Download ODIN v3.09 (http://androidhost.org/PVAIv)
Reboot your phone into download mode. Do this by first switching off the phone, then pressing and holding the volume down + home button together and then pressing the power button. Press power again to enter download mode. (If you have problems go to the Troubleshoot section)
Open ODIN on your computer. You’ll see the ID:COM box turning yellow with a COM port number upon successful connection with the phone.

How To Install TWRP + ROOT On Lollipop
(Tripping Knox)
Due To different bootloaders On Lollipop, installing TWRP is slightly different:
Download the twrp.tar (https://dl.twrp.me/v1awifi/twrp-2.8.7.0-v1awifi.img.tar.html) on your pc and supersu.zip (http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu) on your device. Also, download odin on your pc
Open odin on your pc.
Put device into download mode by turning off the tablet first. Then hold power,home, volume down button all at the same time till download mode comes up.
Hit volume up to continue
Connect tablet to pc.
Hit the ap or AP button in odin.
Select the twrp recovery tar.
Untick auto reboot in odin
Hit start and let it flash all the way
Now force reboot by holding power,home, volume up buttons at the same time till it reboots.
Hit install button in twrp.
Select the supersu zip you downloaded
Swipe to install and reboot.
Troubleshooting:
Q: Can't boot into TWRP
A: In ODIN, uncheck automatic reboot then flash TWRP. So you have enough time to get ready to reboot into TWRP directly after ODIN finishes.
After TWRP is flashed, press power+vol.up buttons and hold them until the Samsung Logo appears then release them.
You should then automatically go into TWRP. Once into TWRP, you can install the root.zip file.
Q: Lollipop is unstable, I get force closes or the whole ROM is just bull****!
A: Go to Recovery Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Up+Power buttons together.
Now, perform Wipe Data/Factory Reset and Wipe Cache Partition task before selecting the reboot system now option. In Recovery Mode use the Volume keys to navigate between options and Power key to select any option.
Q: Can't go into Download Mode
A: Actually on most devices, if you really press the three buttons constantly, it will reboot forever and not go into the download mode. It's better if you turn off your device completely, then press home, volume down. Keep them pressed. Now press the power button too. You're holding down all tree buttons now. The device boots about a second after you see the boot-logo, stop pressing the power button, but keep holding home and volume down. If it's not working try releasing the powerbutton earlier, or later than advised. But keep Home and Volume Down pressed constantly.
Q: Can't flash TWRP, it keeps booting into stock recovery!
A: Disable the Autoreboot option in ODIN
any impact on Knox?
Does it affect Knox?

Nice guide btw and hope we can see deodex guide soon [emoji106]
Thank you for this.
I used to really get into this stuff when I had my OG Droid but these days I can't devote the time to it like that. This guide was clear and worked exactly like it said it would.
Great thread - very helpful - I did have issues when flashing twrp - learned a lesson - make sure you read the whole thread. I didn't at first - I figured I had flashed TWRP so many times I knew what to do - but it didn't work - each time ODIN auto rebooted and I tried to go to recovery - it was back on stock recovery.
THEN I read the whole thread - and did what you said - uncheck Auto Reboot - and do the three finger reboot to recovery - home, power volume up - and viola' it worked just as advertised. Thanks for the guide - very useful!
EDIT - I am having issues and not sure what to do - when I attempt to make a nandroid in TWRP - before flashing a new rom - the backup ran for over 10 minutes and would not finish. its like it is hung up on the last step of the backup or somehting - looks like it is still backing up - but it never changes, Any suggestions?
EDIT 2- I was able to create a backup on internal SD Card - but all attempts to back up to EXT SD Card failed - has this happend to anyone else?
piece o cake. easier than juggling cfautoroot. Thanks dude.
P.S. For USA users with tripped knox (no OTA update) just odin the "cellular south" SM-p900 5.0.2 sammobile rom.
Im not sure where I keep going wrong. Im trying to get into download mode. If I hold the power, volume down, and home button the tablet constantly reboots.
If I release the home button after a few seconds I wind up in download mode.
What am I doing wrong?
Billinaz, try powering down completely first. Then while it's off press all 3 buttons.
Updated the guide according to the feedback of:

what kind of Region i need to download if my is not in the list?
im from israel, my current Version is P900ZSUANH2, what region i need to download for upgrade to lolipop? is there a difference?
Is it possible to just update to Android 5.0.2 Lollipop and not do the other part? (Rooting and such)
Also, is it possible to change the language when updated or will I be stuck with the language of the version I use to update with?

Yes it is! I just updated my stock 4.4.2 (Netherlands) to 5.0.2 using the Korean (BOG) version. Installed it with Odin and about 30 minutes later all apps were updated and my P900 is now a much improved one!
I was reluctant to do this as I feared Iwould lose my data and had to start from scratch, but as a very pleasant surprise all is preserved and all apps are working fine!
And it is really worth doing the upgrade, it is much smoother and access to SD is finally usable.
About language you can choose this again when 5.0.2 boots, the list was extensive, I saw Dutch was there too, but I stuck to English...
So I'm happy with 5.0.2, not rooted and fully stock, and typing this on my Logitech bluetooth keyboard!

Nope!
I don't usually comment here but I had to say thank you so much for this! Whole thing went smoothly and the tablet feels a lot snappier and less laggy now, which is a nice change (although it might just be a placebo).
I installed the Korean BOG version as well on my Australian tablet. It was the only one that would flash out of the 5.0.2's on Sammobile, the rest failed every time. I use a bluetooth keyboard and it still works - its a chinese cheap thing, works great. I had to do a factory reset to get everything running smooth again. There is English in the language options, but only UK English, which is ok for Australia. I do want to root though but one of the ways that wont trip knox. Previously I used kingroot, but it hasn't got a solution this time.
How to root N20 (N985F/N986B/N9860)
WARNING!
Before you root your device you must be aware that
This will void warranty.
As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help.
There are many features stop working when you unlock bootloader other than S pay/Pass like Samsung Health, Secure Folder, Galaxy Watch pairing issue, Issue connecting old gear watch (S3 or earlier), Google Pay etc but some ROMs are patched for all these mentioned features, you can use custom ROM or patch it yourself for stock ROM. Still you may trouble using some bank apps and these may fixed by adding these apps to Magisk Hide
There may be some knox features there which you may not able to use but I can't list those as I never used. Just Google It
Patched featurs are working today when writing this, No idea if it may stop working next moment/tomorrow or later
Also to note, once you root, you can't go back to "pre-rooted" state completely. It is one way!
OTA won't work once you root device.
ROOT with caution.
You can unroot & Relock bootloader after flashing stock firmware, but still your warranty flag remain 0x1 and most of countries it still voids warranty. Also after unrooting & relocking bootloader, some knox features never work again.

How to root
Instructions for stock non rooted ROM
Use either samfirm.js, Frija, or Samloader to download the latest firmware zip of your device directly from Samsung servers.
Unzip the firmware and copy the AP tar file to your device. It is normally named as AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5
Install Magisk apk
Press the Install button in the Magisk card
Choose “Select and Patch a File” in method, and select the AP tar file
When done, copy patched file to PC
Reboot to download mode. Open Odin on your PC, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP, together with BL, CP, and CSC (NOT HOME_CSC because we want to wipe data) from the original firmware.
Your device should reboot automatically once Odin finished flashing. Agree to do a factory reset if asked.
Install the Magisk app you’ve already downloaded above and launch the app. It should show a dialog asking for additional setup.
Let the app do its job and automatically reboot the device. Voila!
Upgrading the OSOnce you have rooted your Samsung device, you can no longer upgrade your Android OS through OTA. To upgrade your device’s OS, you have to manually download the new firmware zip file and go through the same AP patching process written in the previous section. The only difference here is in the Odin flashing step: do NOT use the CSC tar, but instead use the HOME_CSC tar as we are performing an upgrade, not the initial install.
Important Notes
Never, ever try to restore either boot, recovery, or vbmeta partitions back to stock! You can brick your device by doing so, and the only way to recover from this is to do a full Odin restore with data wipe.
To upgrade your device with a new firmware, NEVER directly use the stock AP tar file with reasons mentioned above. Always patch AP in the Magisk app and use that instead.
Never just flash only AP, or else Odin may shrink your /data filesystem size. Flash AP + BL + CP + HOME_CSC when upgrading.
PS : It is strongly recommended to make EFS backup once you root device and save to safer place like on cloud or PC

Here is Patched kernel to root N986B Note20 Ultra (N986B_TH3)
Unlocking Bootloader
This is a basic step to root device. Go to settings - about phone - Software Information - tap multiple times on "Build number" - This will open developer option.
Now in settings at the end, you will have new option "Developer options" - look for OEM unlocking - Enable it.
(PS : If you don't see this option then you may need to wait up to 7 days or more to appear or may be on some operator you will get it never. Without this option you can not root your device, sorry!)
Once you have enable OEM unlock option, switch off your device and reboot to download mode.
To put device in download mode - Press Volume Up & then Press Volume Down (Keep holding both) and connect device to PC with USB cable
When device start to download mode,long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot
Now let finish setup and again enable developer options (as said above), and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and grayed out!
If it is not then you can not root device!
Once you see this option and greyed out, you are ready to flash custom binary and root your device
Installation (Flashing) custom binaries
1. Switch off the device and reboot to download mode (As said earlier) and select volume up to continue
2.Download Magisk Patched Kernel and extract on PC
Open Odin as administrator (Above downloaded Zip have included Odin)
Select Roor_N986*.tar.md5 file (you have downloaded & Extracted on PC in above instructions) for AP tab of Odin
3.From Odin option - uncheck Auto Reboot option
4.Now start flashing and wait till it finish. When you see a PASS sign on Odin, disconnect device.
Now magisk is successfully finished but yet you need to follow instructions below.
Factory reset
After disconnecting device, keep holding Vol down + Side key to exit from download mode.
Here is very important - when you see device reboot As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press Volume Up + Side Key to boot to recovery partition. continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
In the stock recovery menu, use volume buttons to navigate through menus, and the power button to select the option. Select Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
Select Reboot system now
The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots. This is completely normal and done by design.After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. You shall see Magisk Manager in your app drawer; if not, Download Magisk Manager and manually install the APK you downloaded and continue to the next step.
Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device. (You must needed to connected to internet)

Mostly U version is Snapdragon with unlock bootloader and not rootable. Confirm first if you have unlocked bootloader.
Also last 3 digit of firmware is weird. Which device is this? Can you post screenshot of phone info?

What I guess, here unlocked means sim unlocked NOT bootloader.
Some people might need clarification. An "unlocked" phone is not the same as a phone with an unlockable bootloader. If it's the same pattern from the past several years of Note releases. All of the snapdragon US versions won't have the ability to have their boot loaders unlocked, therefore a root. This root method most likely applies to the non-US Exynos versions. If you live in the US, and ordered your phone through Samsung or any carrier, it will be the snapdragon version. I hope I'm proven wrong.

Hi thanks for the rooting instructions. I would like to know if you or anyone has gotten the option for s pen pointer under air commands in your note advanced settings? Jimmy is promo does but every other youtube doesnt have that option so im wondering what note 20 has it and what firmware? Anyone feel free to chime in
If you have rooted the Note 20 ultra 5g (Germany), can i start it normally or do you have to hold a key combination?

If you root with Method mentioned in OP, you should able to boot with root without using combo keys
I coming from the note 9.
If it's rooted, how do I update it?
(Switch from csc to talk (Vodafone DE to DBT) I know that has nothing to do with this topic )

Plz post your question to appropriate forum
ok a new topic, "how do i update a rooted note 20 ultra 5g" Ok I'll do it as soon as I have mine.
no one has the S pen pointer option?
Also have any of you signed up for beta 3.0 android 11 for the s20? Im guessing you guys have early access because the note 20 isnt even out yet.
