Installing TWRP on S7 gives RT_CLOSE !! Error - Samsung Galaxy S7

I have a SM-930U Android version 7.0, whenever I follow the instructions for installing TWRP, Odin reports RT_CLOSE !! and then fails to flash TWRP.
I have tried several different sites with no luck.
Any help is appreciated.

cannot root s5 (G900F) running lollipop

Hi everyone
This is my second s5. I managed to root the first one using cf autoroot and twrp recovery.
However this new phone runs lollipop and I cannot flash either cf autoroot or twrp recovery. I used odin and the flash completes with PASS message. However when I try to reboot to recovery I just get RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING message then the screen goes blank.
I have tried downgrading to kitkat but I am still getting the same message.
Has anyone got an idea of what is going on here?
Thanks
Jeff
Try flashing TWRP 2.8.7.0 with ODIN if you haven't tried that version yet, seems to work for some people with the same problem
Try different ODIN versions too, 3.07 > 3.10.7
Brilliant!! I flashed with TWRP 2.8.7.0 and it works.
Thank you so much. Jeff
Nice one

Both of these attempts failed and gratful i did not do any harm to the device i have stopped their and now seek advice about methods and tools known to work on this particular firmware. Please any help truly appreciated and thankyou in advance for your time and knowledge

Galaxy A3 2016 (sm-a310f) downgrade fail with twrp.

I want to downgrade my phone from android 7.0 to 6.01. The performance of the new OS is so bad that the phone is almost unusable!
Odin will not let me downgrade because the bootloader/modem etc is an older version.
I installed TWRP with the instructions from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/general/twrp-3-0-0-galaxy-a3-2016-sm-a310-t3316176
However when I try to install the 6.0.1 rom I downloaded from sammobile I get an "no md5 file found" error from twrp.
I thought that twrp is so versatile that it allows any rom to be installed.
Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong?
If you downloaded a ROM from sammobile or samfirmware they can only be flashed via Odin.

An error has occurred while updating the device software fix!

So i installed LineageOS 16.0 android 9.0 and i wanted to go back to android 8.0 and somehow i got that error. F*cked up somewhere in odin 100%. I was using lastest version of odin, so odin v3.13.1. So i tried to flash stock firmware many times, tried to flash TWRP but nothing worked. Then i started trying out older odin versions and i finally flashed the TWRP with odin v3.12.3! Now the phone works Hope this helped someone
BTW has someone a link to a not buggy version of The Galaxy Project rom? 2.2.1 maybe or something like that?

Galaxy S8+ exonys only official binaries are allowed to be flashed on odin.

As the title says I tried installing TWRP on my s8 plus via odin but it failed and the error on the phone was "only official binaries are allowed to be flashed". I have seen some threads about but they are all after flashing TWRP and I have got this error during TWRP installation via odin. Help would be apperciated.
stock rom pie.
Update: it got fixed. I tried again with odin and it just installed twrp.

I had the same issue with you. since you fixed it, can you post your stock rom that you used ? I had tried 3 different stock roms, but it did not work. Thank
