Tried rooting my SSG S5-SM900F, TWRP screen doesn't come up, going to need some help

Hey guys, I flashed my previous s3 and now i tried flashing my s5 sm-900F.
So I installed Odin 3.10.7 and I've tried installing multiple TWRP versions(2.8.4, 2.8.5, 3.0) and it passes and successfully installs.
I continue to toggle my phone off and press volume up, home and power button to enter the supposed TWRP menu and it doesn't load, just gives something like "No task".
I didn't install the previously named versions after one another i went through the process of repeating each step with different versions to see if that made a difference but sadly it didn't.
The phone still works and after it gives no task I can still normally boot the phone, it's just not rooted.
How do I proceed from here, since my phone just remains unrooted given I can't install the superSU?
Thank you in advance,
Jonkoetje

Copy SuperSU.zip to your phone or MicroSD
Uncheck "Auto Reboot" in ODIN 3.10.7
Flash TWRP 3.0.0.0
When it's finished flashing, pull the battery out of the phone to power it off
Now replace the battery
Boot immediately into recovery using Volume up & Home & Power
Flash SuperSU

Cheers mate, got stuck in a bootloop the first time but the second time it worked.
Thread can be deleted/locked since it's been solved
Thanks a lot!

Note 3 Bootloop Stuck

Team,
Just rooted my Samsung Note 3 phone using KingoRoot and then installed the TWRP Manager and installed the latest TWRP Recovery, later thru that TWRP manager I selected the option " Restart in Recovery Mode"....
Now my phone is stuck in the initial boot, am not able to open even the recovery mode, its just not opening...
One major thing I forgot, I didn't enable the USB Debugger option...
Please help, what can be done to it....

[SOLVED] Can not install TWRP [#failed to open recovery] Help!

[ORIGINAL POST] - solution further down - (TLDR do not reboot into system after flashing recovery)
Hi,
I'm trying to install TWRP but when i've flashed PDA via ODIN and reboot into recovery, this is what i get. [see images] https://imgur.com/a/zfdvs
TWRP file from TWRP website: 'twrp-3.2.1-0-dream2lte.img.tar' for Samsung Galaxy S8+ (Exynos) (dream2lte)
As this did not work i tried to flash new BL and CP and then i retried to install TWRP, no luck.
Can you please help me! Thanks!
I also tried flashing TWRP (another version just to be safe) via heimdall, but that didnt work either. The enitire prosess is fine, but when i reboot into recovery i still get to the same page. [see images above]
[SOLUTION]
*Do not* boot into system after flashing recovery (TWRP), instead, make sure to boot directly into recovery.
Apparently Samsung Reinstalls recovery when you boot into system after flashing TWRP (or any other recovery for that matter). I do not know if it's like this for all Samsung devices or only the S8, but that's the way it is.

I had the same problem and found instructions to press volume down + bixby + power and then start the Odin load. The load went fine but my phone locked up at the Samsung Logo screen. I tried getting back to the download mode but the screen went black. Now the phone will not power on at all. Exceedingly frustrating.

I've spent 2 hours trying to work out what did I do wrong (checking hashes, odin version, etc) and the simple solution was to boot into recovery right away after flashing via Odin. Thanks!

I've followed different procedures but basically use ODIN to push TWRP to my SP-580. After that, the tablet reboots. I disconnect the cable and power the tablet down. I then hold VOLUME DOWN and VOLUME UP and connect the cable again. But instead of going into recovery mode, it just shows me the percent charged dial. I can get no further than that and have done that at least 15 times. HELP???? Thank you!!

J5 2015 bricked(?)

So, a while back i tried rooting my j5 2015 (sm-j500fn), unsuccesfully. The error I had was that when entering the recovery i installed from Odin would not boot up. I left it at that and opened my phone normaly ,and used it that way. Though today when doing differemt stuff i had very low space and decided to do a factory reset from the settings themself. When i tapped okay the phone powered off, then on and to the teamwin recovery project, which cant load and just kind of bootloops. Can i fix this? Help >_<

Install an older version of samsung smartswitch on your pc and use its erase and update option.(latest version doesnt have it)
You probably installed the wrong recovery.

TWRP GALAXY S10+ is dead ?

Hello
I did rooting for the galaxy s10 + everything went as planned.
I wanted to upload TWRP, but I did it through the application from the play store right after the rota ..
I made a mistake and uploaded TWRP for the second time through odin ... and it was an error odin detects the phone but I can not enter recovery or dowlnoad mode .. what is wrong? the phone, when the samsung logo appears, turns off and over and over again as I hold the key combinations ..

You have to flash neutralized vbmeta.img alongside TWRP, and when you are entering TWRP, your phone has to be connected to the PC.
