This is not the first time i root an android device but it is the first time im doing it on an S5, nonetheless I am pretty much stuck right now.
I tried to install CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.tar using Odin from here, it installed with no problems, but when the phone restarted I get:
RECOVERY BOOTING
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit: recovery
and then it shuts down.
I tried to enter recovery mode by doing power+vol up+menu but nothing happens ?
Can anyone help ?
EDIT: ok, so I did manage to get it running again by flashing openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-gt-klte. This got me past the "Recovery is not seandroid...", but all in all I still didn't manage to get root access...
I passed through a similar situation , all u have to do once u've got the recovery is get the SuperSU flashable zip and flash it and ur done
Here is a direct link : https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip?retrieve_file=1
This happened to me also. I am running XXU1BOJ1 . I flashed twrp-2.8.7.0-klte.img and even though it solved getting stuck at recovery, my phone still boots into the standard recovery instead of TWRP when pressing VOLUP+Home+Power. Anyone got ideas?

I did flash .img.tar actually. Still no effect - boots to regular recovery. Can't figure this out...
i get in the same situation...why still rebooting in original recovery?
i installed this one CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.tar with odin with succes but still have
RECOVERY BOOTING
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit: recovery
then when i boot i get a black screen with all application error....the only way to get it back working was to wipe factory reset in original recovery.
what can i do to get it working so i can install custom roms?
thx in avance

I can't seem to get the coustom recovery installed, and after some digging i found this :
manubhargav said:
Actually the problem was that custom recovery(twrp here) was not installed at all, that above mentioned error occurs when you try to install SuperSU.zip from stock recovery<3e>.
This happens because when you flash custom recovery from Odin and allow it to reboot on its own, Samsung's recovery checking script checks if a custom recovery is present and overrides.
To bypass that check you need to take your battery out as soon as the recovery is flashed by Odin ( and before the phone reboots).
As soon as the Odin says PASS you should be ready to take out the battery which will stop it from rebooting,
put back the battery and enter recovery mode directly by pressing and holding Volume Up, Home and Power keys at the same time.
Release all three buttons when Samsung Galaxy S5 screen flickers and the main screen of Recovery mode appears.
This will avoid script checking and will let you to custom recovery directly,there you can install SuperSU or any other zip.

Maybe your phone is not recognized in Download Mode as corresponding drivers may not be properly installed. So Computer is not able to recognize the phone when in Downlaod mode. Install SM Bus Controllers drivers from Intel from Official driver source.
After setting-up you'll be able to flash TWRP and boot into recovery mode.

The drivers are installed, and Odin sees my phone just fine, also the thing with removing the battery before it restats leads me to the error i mentioned above...

Ah, So the problem you're facing is NOT getting into recovery mode
There are 2 ways to solve the problem, (1st -> flashing recovery.tar again, 2nd-> flashing stock firmware)
First method:
Enter "Download Mode" by holding down "Volume Down"+ "Home" + "Power" button.
Flash recovery.img again and check if it boots into recovery this time.
Sometimes this may not work and you may need to try flashing firmware
Second method:
Download Firmware from here
Open odin in your PC
Enter "Download mode"
Connect the device to PC using USB
Flash the PDA, BL, AP, CSC etc.
Alternatively, You can flash the firmware using SmartSwitch

Oh but it is! That's exactly my problem. Look, here are the 3 outcomes I get regarding the whole recovery menu thing:
Go into the default recovery menu - cant install SuperSU but at least it works.
Install twrp and remove the battery after it finishes transfering and wants to restart, at which point when I go into recovery I get the above error (Could not do normal boot. ODIN MODE.)
Install twrp and let it restart by itself and after it is done, go into recovery only to find it is back to the default one.

Which Kernel version are you in? Which TWRP version did you try? Install other custom recoveries? On locked bootloader?
Ok, I tried CWM and nothing changed, i get the default recovery menu...
Doing the shut down before it restarts gets me "recovery is not seandorid enforcing"

Turn OFF Auto-Reboot option in ODIN and flash the recovery.tar and remove battery and directly boot into recovery mode.
Go into a working custom recovery (CWM or TWRP) and flash SuperSU.zip from the recovery and reboot with ("Fix permissions" if there is such an option, otherwise simply reboot).

Tried that already, and as I said, I can't get a custom recovery working, it either resets to the default one or I get the "recovery is not seandorid enforcing" error.

1)
Ah use latest twrp 2.8.70
Ah use latest supersu beta 2.52
Quick download cm12.1 nightly and flash it.
Boot Rom and go into settings/aboutphone/ click build number rapidly.
Developer settings should appear, then go into developers options/ click on "root access" and enable it.
---- now test if its working . however....
2)
If its not working, take yourself back into twrp and flash that supersu beta.
----now test again. However ....
3)
If it doesn't work again .
go back to stock 5.0 rom>>> put twrp on >>> and flash DAT supersu .
now test ya rom again. However.........
4)
If it dont work again ..
go back to stock 4.4 rom>>> put twrp on>>> and flash a random supersu.
now test ya rom again. However.....
5)
if that doesn't work again,
Go back to stock rom through (odin) and restart the process from the top .
btw the "recovery is not seandorid enforcing" is normal . not an error.

First of all holy **** what an answer... let's SLOW DOWN a bit first, shall we ?
Secondly you lost me from step 1, I don't want CyanogenMod, I want the default Samsung 5.0 with TouchWiz (contrary to popular belief I actually like it).
Also I would really like to know (from someone that actually knows why this happens) why is it reverting to default recovery and how can I stop it from doing so ? manubhargav had an interesting idea, but sadly it doesn't work for everyone (as someone else mentioned on that other post)
So I'm guessing no one knows the answer to my problem considering almost a moth has passed...
I know that in kitkat the answer was to turn off / disable 'Reactivation Lock' (located under settings>>security and unchecking the box)........
I had heard that Samsung had removed that option in lollipop, but it might be worth checking......it has/had to be disabled BEFORE attempting to flash anything......

RL is still there with LP too
Hi, I hope that someone can help me revive my S5. I was on resurrectionremix rom but decided to see what pure N5 rom was like. I asked up my rom then done the normal procedures & installed the N5 rom which booted up fine, after playing around with it for a Shor while I decided that I prefer resurrectionremix so I booted into twrp recovery, factory wiped as i have done many times in the past, when it had finished I rebooted but I stead of booting into life I was confronted with 'Downloading,... Do not turn off target' see attached picture & now I am unable to boot up. I have removed the battery and sim for 5 mins but nothing. If this has been posted before please could you direct me to it. Thankyou in advance
Did you restore your backup?
Flash TWRP again
Yes, tried flashing twrp recovery with Odin but still goes to the same. Trying to download the stock firmware from Samsonite but it keeps failing

Use samfirm tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647
Just enter SM-G900F and BTU in the top left panels, and tick automatic for the rest
Then check the "Automatically decrypt" on the right, and hit download
When you flash TWRP with ODIN, flash TWRP 3.0.0.0, and uncheck "Auto reboot" in ODIN
Once it completes the flash, disconnect USB and pull the battery to power off, then replace battery and immediately boot into recovery with Volume Up & Home & Power
Thanks for your help, appreciated
Hi.
I followed the Instructions in the Post of Nick verse.
odin flashes the file
After that, instructions say i should long press POWER to exit odin mode and directly after that Go in Recoverymode.
Well, thats not working
I can leave Downloadmode only with POWER+HOME+VolDown and that imediately boots in the system.
When i than turn of the device and go in recovery there is still the stock recovery.
Any ideas pls?

You have to take out the battery and then boot im recovery. I haven't experience this problem with 5.1.1 TWRP tough.
sometimes yes
the solution is easy: you can turn off in Odin before flash, auto reboot - auto restart ... You can reboot after manually

Hi bro. İ have same problem 8 months ago and i know this fix.
First. Sorry for my bad english.
You must wait the battery fully discharge. Because you cant make anything now.
When fully discharged phone. You plug charge and press wolume down+power+home. You can go to download mode this way. You must flash the original firmware via odin.
And if you want flash twrp again this step is required.
Go Settings page in odin and untick the auto reboot.
And manually go to recovery mode by download menu after install.

Ok, do the 3button combination as if you are booting into download mode. As soon as screen goes black, keep power and home key pressed down but move to volume up. You have to be quick before it boots to download. This will get you to recovery.

Hi everyone,
I am trying to root my device but I have had no luck!
I flash the TWRP with Odin and get a pass, but when I boot my phone into recovery mode to install SuperSu I am faced with the normal Android recovery mode.
I am running 5.1.1 Lollipop and have made no changes to the device.
Can anyone help?

Do not restart on the rom after the flash but on the recovery.

Hi there,
Sorry im quite new to all of this.
Do you mean untick auto-reboot on odin?
At reboot, after the recovery flash, you need to press "volume up+home+power" to reboot on the recovery.
If you uncheck auto-reboot you can reboot with "volume down+home+power" and when the screen goes off press "volume up+home+power".
So for my problem the solution is not to tick auto-reboot on odin right? I am highly confused
Disable auto reboot or you need to be faster to press buttons when the screen goes off ^^
If the stock rom boots it'll replace the recovery by the original, you need to accept a popup in the twrp recovery to lock this function.
I forgot to say, supersu is not the best software at the moment magisk is maybe a little better :

Untick auto reboot, after flashing twrp pass then remove your battery from phone.
Plug in your battery and press power+volume up+home together to go to twrp and flash supersu or magisk
