Samsung Galaxy grand prime recovery sm-g530az 5.1.1 help - Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to get twrp recovery on this phone, I've heard of people trying to flash ones that they have built with no success of flashing because of some security issue (pretty Sure the bootloader is locked,but I could be wrong) so I'm asking if anyone can build twrp recovery for this phone as others and me need it or point me in the right direction of someone who has successfully flash twrp on this device.
P.S. I do not know how to build twrp.

How to Unlock Secure Bootloader?

No matter which Recovery i flash via Odin or rom recovery method it remains the same and it doesn't change when i flash new recovery and i reboot it to recovery all i see is same old recovery.
I need some help i hope to get some proper help.
S5 G900F
Thanks
Still looking for some help! anyone know how to?
Flashing recovery from ODIN has failed for me and a few others too, rooting with CF Auto Root and then using TWRP Manager from the Play Store was how I managed to get TWRP recovery installed
it didn't resolve maybe someone that had same issue and successfully resolved could share their thoughts?
cheers

SM-G530AZ Rooted With Kingroot &Stock Kernel Method, No Recoveries Work

Hello, I have a Galaxy Grand Prime (Cricket branded) (SM-G530AZ), and I rooted using kingroot, then flash a stock kernel with Flashify, but I cannot install ANY custom recoveries whether it be with Flashify, Rashr, or even ODIN On PC Secure Check Fail: XXXXX and remote controls/reactivation lock are off), I've tried ones for the SM-G530AZ (Very hard to find) The SM-G530H (Grand Prime DUOS I believe?) and SM-G530FZ (Not sure) If anyone can help me out, any custom recovery will work. Also, if possible, at the moment, my device is doing the "Security Error yaddayaddayadda Contact Mobile Operator, saying RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING and then SECURE FAIL: RECOVERY, and this happened with TWRP for 530H, so I just flashed stock recovery that i backed up with Flashify, and then i tried CWM, which auto loads upon boot, So if somebody could please provide me with an unmodified SM-G530AZ file, that would be swell.
TL;DR: Need help trying to flash a recovery after kingroot & stock kernel method and need an unmodified stock G530AZ recovery file.
Thanks a ton in advance.
Sincerely,
Austin
Edit: Decided to do Firmware Initialization, wish I would of had a backup :/ Samsung phones are usually easy to fix when not hard bricked, Just use Kies! xP
there is no working recovery for the SM-G530AZ yet, recovery for other models wont work. Think there is gonna be a recovery released pretty soon for this model.

Well, hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this model will never get a custom recover, there is no way to oem unlock. Only thing you can do, is flash the de-bloated stock rom floating around here.

How do I root the S5 SM-G900W8

I have searched all over the web and this site for a tutorial or how to on rooting my S5 with the stock Marshmallow update. Most of the how to's are all outdated and I don't want to run into crashing my phone again by using anything outdated. I tried installing TWRP recovery or flashing it with ODIN and it didn't work. I had lollipop rooted before so I know I'm capable if I'm linked to the right tools. The way I did the Lollipop root was with TWRP and SuperSU but as I said before I couldn't get the recovery installed properly. It said pass in Odin but I got a bootloop and unstable phone so I prefer if someone knows the right tools and how to please clue me in.

Need help rooting Galaxy Tab E

Hi everyone,
I apologize in advance if this is posted in other threads, but I have tried several methods i found on the site without success.
I am trying to root a Sasmsung Galaxy Tab E SM-T377T running Android 7.1.1.
I have ODIN, and i am able to flash to it. However, the threads say that I need to boot directly into the recovery mode when it's flashed. Well, I've tried two TWRP versions, and one doesn't seem to make any difference at all, and the older one which I thought for sure would work locked the device and I had to reflash to boot.
I'm guessing that the issue is that i'm not flashing the correct recovery, but I'm unsure. If someone could try to assist, I'd be grateful. Thanks!

Samsung Galaxy S5 Active sm-g870a Help

Hello!
I apologize if this isn't the right place to ask, but I haven't found a section for a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active!
I am a complete newbie and haven't flashed to my phone since I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 back in 2018. In this case, I'm trying to find a root and install twrp recovery, so I can install lineageOS on my phone. The stock rom is so laggy!
My phone's recovery won't let me just install lineageOS, so I have to install a custom recovery.
So far, all the one-click roots haven't worked. Towelroot, kingsroot, oneclickroot, all failed.
The official twrp recovery didn't work either and did not give me a compatible rom.
I tried to locate an unofficial twrp recovery compatible with my device, and I think I found one. The issue is that it odin does not flash a .img file.
I'm going to try this method of downgrading the stock rom.
EDIT: Doing this gives me a SW REV CHECK FAIL: [aboot] Fused 2 > Binary 1
Trying this now: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-g870a-downgrade-s5-active-mm6-0-lp5-0.3523683/
EDIT: unsuccessful. Soft brick of OS; need to flash again or try something else...I tried to leave the phone out all night, but it never got past boot screen.
EDIT2: tired again and somewhat successful. Samsung boot screen is different and so is the boot recovery! The darn phone still won't boot though!!
EDIT3: Had to reboot the phone 3 times and got the android is upgrading screen...YAY!! But, the system process.media fails randomly.
Any tips? If I could just get twrp on, that would fix everything! Thank you!!
Found a supposedly compatible twrp here: https://dl.twrp.me/klte/twrp-3.5.2_9-0-klte.img.tar.html
Issue is odin fails when flashing...I am getting the auth error!!
One of the few usable recoveries: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...estrap-recovery-v3-75-2014-06-26-b03.2794087/
Hi, I am also looking to put LineageOS on my device as well.
The most I have found so far is the S5 Active (SM-G870A) has an OEM locked bootloader, and without unlocking it a custom recovery is not available.
AT&T, nor Samsung have provided any way to unlock the bootloader as far as I know, and I'm not sure if any developers are still working to crack it.
