FRP Recovery has tab stuck in download mode, odin wont recognize it - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

I installed twrp and rooted with magisk, and was trying to get safetynet to pass, wasnt paying attention, and disabled oem unlock and usb debugging. Went to restart my device, and it wont start because frp lock. got it into download mode, but odin wont recognize it, or adb. Computer says it doesnt recognize device. Cant battery pull it because it doesnt open, unresponsive to any key press combos. Custom rom linked below, but it says its stock, or at least pretty close. I did that when the stock wasnt released, and am downloading the stock from sammobile now. I just dont know what to do. also tried samsung smartswitch emergency recovery, but when i enter the model number, it tells me to enter the model number like i didnt enter anything. Model number sm-p580 by the way.
rom used:

Edit: It looks like it should be fine if i install stock firmware, but i cant do this because odin doesnt recognize it

Help installing recovery

Hi, just bought an S5 G900F (international version)... and i wanted to install a custom recovery than root.. than flash rom. Im experienced in this matter... but ... im having all sorts of odd problems. I tried several reocvery (openrecovery, twrp, philztouch)... non stick when i reboot?
I tried several times... odin says everything installed fine.
I wanted to install cf-root... i did it win odin and when phone restarted it says: "recovery booting.... recovery is not seandoird enforcing ... set warranty bit : recovery
Who can help me??
PS Im on lollipop 5.0 if it makes any difference. All attempts were realized with different versions of odin
People have success with TWRP 2.8.7.0 and ODIN 3.10.6
Then SuperSU from TWRP if it sticks

Try unchecking "Auto reboot" in ODIN, and once the flash has finished, pull the battery, replace and boot into recovery
just tried it... still no go (... do you think i would have more success trying from adb?
Lol this phone has smth against me.
Tried adb: as long as i have it in "desktop" mode adb devices finds it; as soon as i adb reboot bootloader, using the fastbootdevices... adb doesnt see it anymore... so i cant proceed to the flashig
I know you know what you're doing when it comes to this stuff, as you said
But just to make sure, can you post the exact step by steps you're using to try and flash CF Auto-Root and TWRP etc with ODIN?
Yes of course. As i doesn't work for me... i (even) hope im doing something wrong, so we can get to the bottom of this.
So, installed S5 drivers, Enabled usb debuggin in phone (dev menu). Put phone in dl mode (vl dwn+power+home), open odin, select at AP the recovery (tried about 3 recoveries, older versions and newer ones, twrp, phil, open). I have both (by default) checked auto reboot and f-reset time... connect phone with usb cables (tried 2) (connected directly to mb, no extension)... hit start... get the pass message.. phone resets... goes into android. I power off, go to recovery mode (vl up+power+home) and... i get the stock recovery every single time.
Tried something wierd... flashed through Odin CF-root first (with intention to flash after twrp ... as it says phone needs to be rooted first)... it flashes ok (odin says pass, successful 1), reboot (or go to recovery mode)... i get that seandroid error.
Tried to to with with apps from android as well... it doesnt let me.. obviously as most ask phone to be rooted.
What am I missing?
Those are the correct steps, it definitely should have flashed
Doing this from a native PC yes? Ive seen people trying it from Macs and it fails every time
Only thing I can think of right now is try using a different PC
You don't need USB debugging enabled for flashing with ODIN, download mode has no idea what settings you have enabled in Android
Like your method, I just do this:
Samsung Drivers (KIES3 installs them for you anyway)
Vol Down & Home & Power for Download Mode
Connect phone to PC USB
Leave ODIN defaults set (3.09 or 3.10.6)
Select CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.tar.md5 in AP/PDA section of ODIN
Wait for it to become ready
Hit start
Phone reboots, and I have root
You could try factory resetting the phone, and trying again, see if that does anything, or at least clear the caches from stock recovery first

Samsung galaxy grand neo plus - i9060i

greetings people,
a few days ago my friend brought me a phone for me to flash a custom rom onto it. I can't REGRET anything more then accepting this phone.
I rooted the phone on stock android 4.4.4 with Kingroot and after that, **** went down real bad.
I realised I couldn't acces recovery NOR download modus anymore, i try'd to boot into download/recovery with the hardware button way, but I also try'd to boot with adb reboot download / recovery
neither of those options worked, the phone either normally booted up or it kept trying to reboot with a black screen.
after I rooted it the boot image u get like " Samsung XXX "" were also gone.
after ALOT of searching and stuff and attempting things ive found a really old thread that stated to use fastboot reboot bootloader. I were really amazed that that worked but instead of booting up to the regular download modus it booted into fastboot, I read somewhere someone had the similair issue like me and they told him his boot img were corrupted. so ive headed to sammobile and downloaded the stock firmware for the device, I extracted the packages since I couldn't use odin because I am/was not able to acces download modus, while in fastboot i flashed the single boot.img with the command "Fastboot flash boot boot.img" it succeeded but after it succeeded I tried to boot it up but it fails booting to OS,recovery and download. it keeps attemping to reboot, I am CLUELESS at this point. I am able to try some things when I can enter that fastboot mode I had before but I can't acces the phone with ADB since it just keeps rebooting and stays inresponsible
I am planning to buy a USB JIGG, i use to have one but I can't find it anywhere.
any idea's/information would be soo helpful..
thanx in advance

Hi There, I just came across your thread, because I'm in the same position you are, fortunately though, I've managed to root this phone without any problems, however it seem though that there is no custom ROM available for this device, at least nothing past KK, and that one I found didn't seem so stable, I tried to flash it and came back with an error!! So my friend won't be able to bring his phone out of the Dark Ages!! at least it's Rooted! and now he may be able to use some apps that do require root, It's the best I can do at this point. I used the link below to root sucessfully:

I realize it's kinda late but luck to you my friend:fingers-crossed:
By the way, This one is the Dual Sim Version, don't know if that will make a difference?!

Cant install recovery

just got given a s4..i9505..so totally stock always has been, i tryed following all guides to install TWRP. odin tells me all has gone well, but when i try to boot in recovery, its still stock, tried different versions of odin and twrp, but nothing works, any suggestions
sorry, ive sorted it, i needed to enter recovery straight after reboot, which i wasnt doing
You're certain you have an I9505? Enter bootloader mode and make sure, because from the sounds of it you have a locked bootloader, which will prevent the recovery from being installed.

HELP phone wont boot even after odin!

So I got a new Galaxy S7 edge (Sm-g935f) and decided to root it, I followed all if the directions, but it turned out that I flashed the TWRP file for the flat S7 on my edge S7. So I flashed stock firmware, then started over, to again make the same mistake. After this I was going to flash stock firmware once again, but this time actually install the right version of TWRP, but after flashing the stock firmware from sammobile using Odin, the phone can only go into download mode, and if I plug it in I go to the lighting charging icon, if I'm lucky I can get to a screen that says no command, and if I am luckier i can get to recovery mode, but no matter what I have done or how many times I have flashed, it won't boot into the system. It just says erasing then installing system update and then no command. Please help me! This is the only phone I have and I spent all of my money on it!

Try to get lucky again and boot into recover and do a factory reset and
then boot into download mode and odin flash official stock firmware.
It should work...

I got it, I just plugged the phone in overnight, and when I powered it on it spring back to life. But more in download mode, my PC says device not recognized even though it recognized it before.

When flashing TWRP it goes back to bootloader downloading and I can't do anything until i flash original firmware again.

Hey! I guess you can see from the title that I am a toootal noob in terms of custom recoveryes, roms and rooting, but I was trying to flash pixel experience on the phone, because my warranty recently expired and wanted to try it out. So I searched and I found to flash a rom on any phone I need a custom recovery and found that TWRP is the most popular and supported the phone so I installed odin and the samsung usb drivers, turned on bootloader and usb debugging in the developer settings, booted into the bootloader, connected the phone to my pc and used odin(tried by running it with and without adminstrator) to flash the tar file, with auto reboot turned off, it says it's installed succesfully, but when I hold the power and volume down button to exit bootloader and hold the power and volume up button to boot into recovery mode , instead of showing the phone model and then powered by <whatever it is> it shows me the phone model and under it it says that i have an unofficial OS that may harm my phone or something like that and sends me back to bootloader this time with "<!>" in the upper left corner and something about vbmeta. If I understand it right vbmeta is verified boot which as the name suggest makes the phone boot into the official os and you turn it off when you turn on bootloader. The only way to get out of that is to flash the official firmware again. I would really appreciate it if someone helps me with this. If not I guess I will try to flash Orange Fox recovery.
Try flashing this first, then TWRP
