So, after installing through Odin, you can root using TWRP as opposed to installing CF_AutoRoot? I've never used Team Win, I've always stuck to CWM but I'm intrigued to try this recovery....

Hi .
Just install stock recovery again to get the tab in download mode again .
Stock recovery can be found in the stock firmware files , mostly in the ( AP , Code ) file .
Just try to extract file using " 7z '' . There you will find the stock recovery .
Put it in the AP or Code field and flash it using Odin . While the tab in the dead screen.
Regards

I used Heimdall ; it has a command to close the phone-to-pc screen (in linux terminal > heimdall "close-pc-to-phone-screen" ; heimdall -help to get exact command).

Is this support Odin new versions?
Anybody try this with Odin new version like 3.12.10 or 3.13.1

Hmm.. nowadays some of the Marshmallow version are coming with locked bootloader.. may be because of that u are getting error.
In such case you need to flash each and every version of marshmallow Firmware and check whether it supports flashing twrp or not from the below link. If you are able to flash twrp or certain frimware, that means its bootloader is not locked.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-J500FN/
or simply try this firmware from below link:
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/113125/J500FNXXU1BPK3_J500FNOXA1BPK3_PHE/
Dont forget to make ''on'' oem unlock and usb debugging from developer option.

This is perfect root tutorial in few minutes and everyone says it works

Ok so I think it's because it's a bug I put lollipop on and now it's all done their must be something wrong unless I have to flash marhmellow first ☺

Looking to root my s10+ or a compatible stock Rom

Hi Xda devers,
i accidentally bought an s10+ not knowing that the model from Japan.
more infos (from cpuz):
Model: SCV42 (scv42_jp_kdi)
Processor: Snapdragon 855
Bootloader: SCV42KDU1DVE4
I used to flash old samsung phones with different broadbands, i tried the F model, it broke and entered reboot loop.
If i may ask:
Can anyone provide me with TWRP or steps to root my phone since it's different model (i'll be glad to donate!)
Any stock Rom compatible with this model at least without the bloats of the career
Thank you in advance and happy rooting!

Hi, i did that on my s10+ recently, it's different from older models.
First thing i was doing it's installing twrp and when finished installing custom rom then i rooted. Here is how to root:
First unlock bootloader (OEM unlock) and enable usb debugging (developer options) (Watch out for FAP locking)
Instal magisck on your device: Magisk Manager apk/ and run it.
You need to download system from here i found your specific model, you need pc for this: Android 12 SCV42KDU1DVE4
Step two is to unzip zip file, then you will found files: AP, BL, CP, CSC OXM and HOME CSC.
For the first step you need to copy AP file to phone, only AP file, then you open magisk app and run instalation, in the first step of instalation you check "recovery mode" on the very next you click on the "method" then "Select and patch a File" in the file explorer find your AP file and chose it then click "Let's go" Wait to finish and remember the location where is stored your new AP. Create new folder on pc and store that new AP.
Second step is to run Odin, connect device to pc and put it in download mode. In Odin extract Files BL, CP and CSC (from downloaded android software) use new AP file from "new AP" folder. Run it and wait to finish then u start phone normally, when finished with settings up phone you need to power of device and then you need to start it with next combination of buttons VOLUME DOWN + BIXBY + POWER KEY and wait for the next 3 images to slide show, Realse buttons when 3rd Samsung logo appear if u don't realise on time it will boot to safe mode.
If you do that correctly go to browser and find magisk manager apk: Magisk manager / download and install it if everything is alright u will get tab with update button (not install) when you give permission to browser to instal unknown apps.
Enter the Magisk manager and your phone is rooted.
