TWRP for C9LTECHN/SM-C9000 Galaxy C9 Pro
Special Notes:
1. DON'T FORGET TO ENABLE "OEM UNLOCK" (located in Developers options).
2. KNOX will be tripped once you flashed custom binaries to your phone.
(Your warranty may be voided. However this may not affect you if your country forces Samsung to provide hardware warranty regardless of software status.)
3. Samsung Firmware OTA (aka System Updates) will no longer work once you flashed custom binaries.
(You can flash custom ROMs if you want to keep the OS up-to-date.)
PLEASE BEFORE YOU FLASH ROMS MAKE A COMPLETE BACKUP OF YOUR SYSTEM INCLUDING EFS SO YOU DO NOT BRICK YOUR MOBILE

That's already for C9000. Can't you see the c9ltechn article. That's c9 pro's code
Thank you. I have already installed it.
I have flashed TWRP, formatted Data twice, flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip, flashed SuperSU and after that I can mount Data. But after a reboot I can't anymore? Am I doing something wrong?

You can flash any file still that just an article but you can't mount data anymore or backup data
I can flash files but cannot mount Data. I presume it is still encrypted despite being formatted twice?
Format data and reboot to recovery

So in TWRP format Data and then reboot again in TWRP.
And then flash SuperSU and no_verity?
Ok, I formatted Data twice in TWRP. Mounting Data works.
I flashed SuperSU in TWRP. Mounting Data works.
I flashed no_verity. Mounting Data works.
I rebooted into TWRP. Mounting Data works.
I rebooted into system and then switched off and rebooted into TWRP. Mounting Data does not work.
What am I doing wrong?
Correction:
I have now used this no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx file:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424951049
And now Data stays decrypted!
I do have a stock debloated rom that is made out of HK firmware if this community is interested, I can put it up. All I see is you guys using Aurora. Anyone interested or do you all want to stick to Aurora rom?
I tested it few days, it works perfect and it is perfectly debloated
Please share Travis. Thank you for your work.

no god no, HK firmware has gapps built in like normal. I'll tweak it up some more and release it today on a separate thread. Right now I'm trying to get kernels to boot-up since they compile fine.

This is TWRP 3.0.2-1 ported from official SM-J700 to SM-J710 using stock kernel (zImage) from SM-J710FN, and it fortunately works (atleast to root this thing).
Disclaimer: Flashing this gon' trip knox & you lose your (device's) warranty.
Built from official SM-J700F recovery
Kernel & Device Tree from SM-J710F 6.0.1
No "SEANDROID ***" red warning
Flash via ODIN & enjoy
TWRP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863141296
Kernel: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863141293 (Stock 6.0.1 with disabled dm-verity & encryption)
Note: As per my experiences, it is recommended to flash the Kernel, then recovery, then "FORMAT DATA" (not just wipe) to disable encryption. Otherwise, TWRP will not be able to mount /data.
I flashed this SuperSU in system-less mode & I was rooted with no (visible) issues. Anything else like backing up, I didn't try.
EDIT:
If you want to keep encryption, simply flash recovery & upload SuperSU package via sideload.
EDIT:
Recommended Installation Flow:
Flash TWRP via ODIN
Flash Kernel via ODIN
Reboot to Recovery (TWRP)
Wipe > Format Data > "yes"
Reboot to Recovery (TWRP)
Flash latest SuperSU zip (anything > 2.46)

I, myself have recently met this issue just now. The /data encryption & dm-verity might be causing such issue. Please check updated download links in post to download extracted kernel image from 6.0.1 stock ROM with modifed ramdisk and slightly updated TWRP which now boots fine everytime I try to as of yet.

When I was stuck at the bootloader logo, I rebooted to Download mode and did hit Cancel to restart normally.
EDIT:
If you want to restore original recovery, I can provide you with the stock image as well from SM-J710FN.

If you want to root but can't see your files within, you can always sideload.

i no longer need them. the cause of boot loop was your kernel. I tried to sideload supersu zip but i still can't get rooted this is because twrp can't access /data partition and supersu requires that in system less root.

TWRP cannot access the /data partition because it is encrypted. I did "FORMAT DATA", then rebooted to recovery via TWRP > Reboot > Recovery. Now the TWRP should be able to mount /data and you could install supersu.

I do understand that it will wipe all the data over the phone. But as per my experiences with S7 & S7E, encryption is enabled by default on Android 6.0 MM. Unless you disable encryption & reformat data, TWRP won't be able to mount /data. The kernel image I posted does not encrypt the /data partition so that you would be able to mount it in TWRP. But after flashing kernel, a FORMAT DATA is required to flush previously encrypted /data. I am sorry, but this is how things seems to work with Android 6.0. Unless TWRP includes support for encrypted partitions, we need to wipe it fully to be able to access it.

Bevor you do something with your Device do a Backup of all your Data (Contacts, Pic´s ect.) outside of your Device (in a Cloud or on your PC)I'm not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD Cards, broken phone chargers etc.You do all at your own Risk!
If you are new, just work the first 3 steps from top to bottom.
Flash Root & Odin3:
At the https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ site you can Download the the Root File for your Device (Link to A300FU). When you Downloaded the "CF-Auto-Root-xxx.zip" File unzip it. In this zip you will find the Odin3xxx.exe and the Root .tar.md5 File
You need this Odin3 tool also for TWRP and going Back to Stock Rom
For Root: Make sure your device is in ODIN download mode (you can get there by holding VolDown+Home+Power when the device is turned off), then start the included Odin3xxx.exe file, press the PDA/AP button, select the Root .tar.md5 file, and click Start, never interrupt this action! You can find more detailed instructions and assistance at [CENTRAL] CF-Auto-Root Thread
Flash TWRP:
You can Download the TWRP File at the [RECOVERY][ROOT][TWRP 3.0.2-1]Samsung Galaxy A3(2015) SM-A300F/FU/G/H/M Thread. I recommend the Build from Post 80 it has working MTP & OTG for the FU Device!
To Install Start download mode (you can get there by holding VolDown+Home+Power when the device is turned off), then start the Odin3xxx.exe file, press the PDA/AP button, select the TWRPxxx.tar file, and click Start, never interrupt this action! After Reboot you can get there by holding VolUp+Home+Power when the device is turned off.
There are also a TWRP 2.8.7.0 and a TWRP 3.0.0-0 but both have small bugs so i recommend TWRP 3.0.2-1 only if you have Problems try to downgrade
TWRP Bugs:
TWRP 2.8.7.0 Can only Install CM12.1 ROMs, it has no MTP & no OTG
TWRP 3.0.0-0 Can only Install CM13 ROM & it has no MTP but OTG is Working
TWRP 3.0.2-1 Can not install @cbolumar ROMs and the Build from Opening Post has no OTG
TWRP 3.1.0 Only tested with LineageOS, it still has no MTP!!!
Flash a Custom ROM:
You can Install a ROM now with TWRP you can enter TWRP by holding VolUp+Home+Power when the device is turned off.
In TWRP IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO DO FIRST A BACKUP! (I Recommend to placed at the SD Card)
Backup -> Storage : Micro SDcard -> Ok -> [x] Boot, [x] System, [x] Data, [x] Cache, [x] Recovery, [x] EFS, [x] MODEM, [x] APNHLOS -> Swipe to Backup
If anything goes wrong you can easy Restore your Device in TWRP without losing anything, so it's also recommended to Backup your Custom ROM
Now you need your Custom Rom, Google Apps like Opengapps for ARM and i recommend latest Magisk[/URL, OR (if you prefer) [URL="http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu"]SuperSU to Manage Root Access.
Place this zip Files at your Device (I Recommend to placed at the SD Card)
Now you enter TWRP and go to:
Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> [x] Dalvik / ART Cache, [x] System, [x] Data, [x] Cache -> Swipe to Wipe
Now go back to main menu and select:
Install -> Storage : Micro SDcard -> Ok -> now choose your ROM zip first, you can "Add More Zips" and choose Gapps zip and if you want you can Add direct Magsik OR SuperSU zip as well -> Swipe to Confirm Flash
After placing files the Device need a Reboot, at the First Start it will Install your Rom, so be patiently at first start!
Flash Xposed:
Magisk user on Android M (6.x) or better follow this Thread [2018.5.6][Magisk] Systemless Xposed v89.3/v90.2-beta3 (SDK 21-27) by topjohnwu
SuperSU user on Android M (6.x) or better follow this Thread [OFFICIAL] Xposed for Lollipop/Marshmallow/Nougat/Oreo [v90-beta3, 2018/01/29]

at CM12.1 ROM's Offical Xposed works fine.
Download the "sdk22-arm" zip, and Install it with TWRP first start need a long time! be patient!
After the Framework is installed you install the "XposedInstaller" apk, done.
For stock rom you should visit [UNOFFICIAL] Xposed for Samsung Lollipop by arter97 but it´s for deodex'ed ROMs for this you should visit [Deodex][SM-A300] Deodex Thread for Samsung Galaxy A3

Working only on MM touchwiz (tested by me on A300FU with TWRP 3.0.2-1)
How to install:
- Install this Xposed Installer App version http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3383776&d=1435601440
- Make a nandroid backup
- Copy the Xposed file and the uninstaller to your sdcard
- Flash "xposed-vxx.x-sdkxx-tw-armxx-custom-build-by-wanam-xxxxxxxx.zip" through a custom recovery (TWRP/CWM...)
- Reboot and Waiiiiiiiiit, it may take several minutes to boot up depending on your Rom size.

Flash Stock ROM:
Download your Firmware at Sammobile than i recommend you to Wipe all (Advanced Wipe) in TWRP except the SDcard!
Boot your Device in ODIN download mode (you can get there by holding VolDown+Home+Power when the device is turned off), then start the Odin3xxx.exe file, press the PDA/AP button, select the .tar.md5 file, and click Start, never interrupt this action!
After doing this you lose TWRP and Root so if you need it you have to install it new.
You should not try to Flash 4.x ROMs it could Brick your Device!

Nice guide. Which one would you recommend between the CM12.1 and CM12.1 RR?
Also, for downgrading TWRP, you just need to flash the older version, right?

Definitely CM12.1 RR!
Right just flash first TWRP 2.8.7.0 via Odin3 install the ROM and than Flash TWRP 3.0.2-1 via Odin3, btw. the Build from post 80 has a working MTP and OTG in TWRP (only in TWRP not at the ROM!)
And you can anytime time flash TWRP 2.8.7.0 again if you have to Install new

Thanks I tried this but I flashed wrong firmware and wifi was broken but I know how to repair it.
Tomorrow I'll try flash compatible firmware and try again.
After flash MM and reflash LP it was a bootloop in first boot. I went to download mode and flash twrp then restore backup and it boots up.
Thanks

This Bootloop thing happened at my Device sometimes too, if i flashed a stock ROM via Odin, thats why i started to Wipe all Partitions via TWRP before flashing, that works for me flawless
Than happy flashing tomorrow

OK I've got one last question the wipe in twrp means it deleting it to zero and if I accidentally go to system and not to download I'll get hard brick? Or wipe means it restoring it to factory files? Wipe modem too?
Sorry for noob questoms but I want to be sure before do anything

As far i know, it will not working with Stock MM.
Known issues:
- Bootloops on Samsung stock ROMs. That's due to Samsung's changes to ART. There are unofficial builds that work around this by deodexing and adjusting the ROM.

I'm happy with this.
Working only on MM touchwiz (tested by me on A300FU with TWRP 3.0.2-1)
How to install:
- Install this Xposed Installer App version http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3383776&d=1435601440
- Make a nandroid backup
- Copy the Xposed file and the uninstaller to your sdcard
- Flash "xposed-vxx.x-sdkxx-tw-armxx-custom-build-by-wanam-xxxxxxxx.zip" through a custom recovery (TWRP/CWM...)
- Reboot and Waiiiiiiiiit, it may take several minutes to boot up depending on your Rom size.

Stock ROM:
Download your Firmware at Sammobile than i recommend you to Wipe all (Advanced Wipe) in TWRP except the SDcard!
Boot your Device in ODIN download mode (you can get there by holding VolDown+Home+Power when the device is turned off), then start the Odin3xxx.exe file, press the PDA/AP button, select the .tar.md5 file, and click Start, never interrupt this action!
After doing this you lose TWRP and Root so if you need it you have to install it new.
Unofficial TWRP for Moto G5S Plus (Sanders)
Additional Features over Official TWRP:
Supports flashing of both 32bit and 64bit ROMs and Kernels.
OREO Images/ROMs support.
Decryption and Encryption support.
No SuperSU by default.
No TWRP app.
No HTC Dumlock cruft.
Updated pigz compressor (slightly faster and more tolerant of corruption).
NTFS support(Both Read and Write).
Covers more partitions for nandroid backup (OEM, FSG and FSC).
Experimental support for SD cards that are partitioned for partial adopted storage and partial removable storage.
Faster I/O performance.
Fixed Gapps/aroma freeze issues.
IMPORTANT!!! : READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING TO FLASHING PROCESS..!!
At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either Magisk or flash any of the verity disabler zips available on xda.
Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well
If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data
Flashing Instructions:
Using Existing TWRP:
Reboot to recovery > Click on Install > Install Image > recovery > select recovery image and flash > reboot to recovery
Other Methods(Fastboot) :
Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
Reboot to bootloader
Enter following command in terminal: fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary boot)
Incase your device is encrypted (while coming from stock rom), Follow these steps to decrypt:
Reboot to recovery > cancel the password prompt > mount all partitions > Format Data/Userdata (on f2fs) > Reboot Recovery > Mount all partitions again > Flash Magisk > Reboot
Now you are free to use Stock ROM (Decrypted) or Flash any custom rom you want.

Only one that has actually be working for me ever since I got the phone. Thank you for your efforts.
this seems to suffer from the same thing the stock rom/kernel suffers from, the weird f2fs bug that makes certain mounts fail. geneticengineer has shared a kernel that fixes this in stock rom , maybe you could get in touch with him about how he updated f2fs
Thank you for your work, this seems to work well on my device. If you would like to swap the kernel, I posted a newer firmware NPS26.116-45 here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74325160&postcount=33

Well my guess is that the kernel in the present twrp is from the -26 firmware posted in the other thread. That firmware was US Retail also. The OP in the other thread states in can be used on other models. But I am not going to tell you that because I do not know. I have not found any other firmware for the sanders model.

Afaik it doesnt affect TWRP, you just need to be on a custom kernel if you are running stock rom.
Twrp has nothing to do with it.
If you face any problem flashing anything then post a screenshot or log.

TWRP backup is frozen at 13% completed. The progress bar is still showing its animation.
I unlocked the bootloader, and then rebooted. Android came up with the language selection screen. I powered off, connected the phone to the PC, and booted into TWRP (not flashed yet):
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-sanders-r7.img
I did not let TWRP format /data.
Then I started a backup, selecting all partitions, so that I could always go back after flashing TWRP and Magisk.
Does anyone know why backup is stuck at 13%? Last log line says "Backing up System..."
I tapped "Cancel" after two hours. That stopped the progress bar animation, but not the backup itself.
BTW: I used TWRP from this thread, the one in another thread freezes at the TWRP boot logo.
Edit: after two hours I killed the backup by powering down (the only way it seemed). On retry it froze at 21%.
Edit 2: Retried, this time backing up everything except system. No problem. I then tried to backup system. Frozen at 1%. What is the problem here?
Edit 3: Finally, a complete backup of system! Only one to go: system_image. But unfortunately that froze at 0%. Every subsequent try freezes at 1666MB (40%). The card has over 30GB free. I tried backup to USB-OTG, but that also froze.

Might be due to data partition being encrypted, you cant write anything in it without decrypting it first.
Format data and reboot recovery, then make the backup. You can flash magisk after taking the backup.
Btw r9 new release on its way with some really important changes

I was not trying to write the backup to the data partition, but to external SD card (tried OTG-USB as well without success).
I have flashed TWRP, formatted the data partition, and flashed Magisk. I have not tried to create a new backup yet. First I want to find out why Magisk does not pass the Safetynet check.
Can't wait to see what r9 brings. Thanks for your efforts. :good:

Sorry I wasn't aware you weren't still on stock. That kernel will only work on stock. I would verify with the maintainer of AOSP extended ROM that the kernel is patched to work with Magisk.

PLEASE READ READ READENTIRE OP
"ALL MAJOR WORK DONE BY HASHCODE SO GO GIVE HIM SOM THANKS.DO NOT POST ANY BUG OR ISSUE COUSED BY THIS RECOVERY IN ORIGINAL THREAD BY HASHCODE, POST HERE AND I WILL HELP YOU."
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
BETA v4.11-B01 [Nougat:7.0]
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 3.3.0 (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots for flashing ROMs. NOTE: The bigger you make the /data partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
APK install:
Once installed, open up the Safestrap application, Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
Flashable zip:
Flash using Safestrap recovery or FlashFire.
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting (or the hard button underneath each option).
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
APK:
Push the APK up to your sdcard.
Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.
Open your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button
Browse to where you pushed the APK
Click on it and install like normal
Once installed, open the APK, Grant SU access, Use the "Install Recovery" button.
Flashable zip:
Flash using Safestrap recovery or FlashFire.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- Sometimes the installation doesn't work correctly. If you don't see the splashscreen after a rebooting. Install Safestrap again.

Hi,
I just installed this on my g892a, however it fails to mount /data. It looks like it's trying to mount /dev/block/sda24, however, on my phone it's actually /dev/block/sda23:
I tried changing the partition in /etc/safestrap/ss.config but that didn't do anything
Is there anything I can do to get it to mount, or do you need to recompile twrp?
Thanks!

You need to edit twrp.fstab and ss.config in twrp recovery too.
I will try to add support for G892A in the next build.

Alright, I haven't built twrp / safestrap before so I'm having some trouble figuring it out, but I don't want to bug you with that. I do have a question though - when i get this working, could i flash a rom (to the stock rom slot) like a stock oreo rom with the same bootloader revision and keep safestrap installed? And then if I wanted to I could restore the backup of the nougat rooted rom? It looks like it can be done with the regular s8, but I'm confused as to whether it would work here or what I would need to do.

Rom slot is broken on arm64 devices.
You can use stock slot only.
I have a Samsung Galaxy SII ( GT-I9100 ) which was retrieved from a dumpster. I love the removable battery. I would like to know what custom firmware you recommend for it. I could also use any tutorials you recommend to flash it. I have looked at some but I wonder which is best for my requirements:
* The latest Android release is unimportant (I can live with Android 5.0 to be honest)
* Having Google bundled apps is unimportant (all Google apps will be uninstalled, if present).
* I want the good reliability / stability and no alpha or beta releases.
I am only interested in root access & reliable firmware with which I can install open-source apps from f-droid.org. Thanks for any suggestions.

Lineage OS 17.1 Android 10, that works pretty well.

Another opportunity for you would be replicant. It is based on LineageOS, but tries to run on free-software only and a mainlined kernel. They don't ship with any google apps and and offer Android 6 (currently upgrading to Android 9 for all of their devices.
You will need modified TWRP to flash this and do not ask me why.
You need odin 3.07 as it is the last version of odin that supports S II.
Odin 3.07 https://odindownloader.com/download/odin3-v3-07
Update offically to 4.1.2, Delete All Samsung and Google accounts, go to settings and phone information, click 7 times build number（Just randomly click All numbers 7x and you will eventually done）, go back to settings, click on developer Options, and toggle BOTH oem unlock and USB debugging.
Then follow below steps
Pit: i9100-LOS-16.0-Emulated-Storage.pit
PDA: i9100-LOS-16.0-Emulated-Storage-TWRP-3.3.1-1.tar.md5
1. Boot your phone into Download-mode (Volume down + Power/Standby + Home and hold for 10 seconds).
2. Start ODIN 3.07 on your PC.

12. In new TWRP flash this http://ww.androidfilehost.com/?fid=17248734326145712187 and then stable magisk and reboot.
well gapps also not builded in in lineageos.
Thanks for all the responses. All the choices sound like they will get the job done. I'm currently deciding which one to try first.

Much appreciated. I was preparing all the files you mentioned but got a broken link on this one. Could you re-check please?

I downloaded both the Replicant files and the Lineage files. I had a look at replicant and the set-up seems to be a lot more invovled, so I have decided to do Lineage first. The firmware download size with Replicant is much less bloated, which appeals to me, especially for older hardware. So I will probably try that eventually.

I gave it a quick attempt yesterday. In Developer Options I found "USB debugging" but there was no "OEM Unlock" setting anywhere. In any case, I proceeded:
Odin says:
All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)
I'm led to believe I need to get the Samsung drivers so I will do that later today. I have read that installing Kies installs the drivers so maybe that's the best route.

I will give you a alternative way. first, update to 4.1.2
then, install rashr https://m.apkpure.com/root-rashr-flash-tool/de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools but do not open it . you need to install it first because Otherwise installation will be blocked by kingroot.
then you guessed that root by kingroot https://kingroot.en.uptodown.com/android
Tutorial https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...BMAF6BAgIEAE&usg=AOvVaw3cA8ZHKR3yqQaY6NvHnO4I
Then you can open rashr. download this TWRP as rashr only flashes.img files. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682894303
select RECOVERY FROM STORAGE and select the .img TWRP.
it will ask you to reboot recovery .
in recovery you wipe All in advanced wipe except microsd and USB otg. Then transfer the .zip rom to phone by dumping it into internal storage using a computer. Flash it by flash button and selecting the zip, but do not Install gapps. select Reboot and Pay attention here: Do not install TWRP app! Uncheck All prompt to install TWRP app and reboot system.

Not sure. I haven't put a SIM card in this thing at all. Does having no OEM Unlock option mean that it's locked to a single carrier? I literally found this phone in the dumpster and I will be using it on wi-fi (occasionally) and offline (mostly).
Re: Kingroot
Not keen on this at all since I have read it is malware.

GT-I9100. There is no G
I will try with Samsung drivers later tonight & see if the first method works. I am not keen on many of those 'easy' rooting apps, but I appreciate the help. I have big trust issues with them.
glad to see that, also one click root apps can do whatever they want like installing a malicious app without permission and hack device, though I bite the bullet and tried on my xperia c.
very reasonable doubt
Lineage is installed. However, it is still unrooted. Does anyone have any tips for getting this rooted?
=======
* I have tried the Magisk app and patching "boot.img" several times. That resulted in an error: Unsupported / invalid file, or words to that effect.
* I have tried downloading the Magisk zip file using the Magisk app. I tried flashing that freshly-downloaded Magisk zip file in TWRP. No go. Error: 1
* I have tried downloading various Magisk zip files off Github and flashing in TWRP. No go. Error: 1
* I have tried the official TWRP app that seemed to insist on downloading an official I9100 TWRP file. I flashed this TWRP file using my existing TWRP Recovery. After that, I couldn't get into Recovery at all (using the 3 finger salute). It would always just boot LineageOS instead.
=======
So I decided to start-over. I started up Odin again and started from scratch. I have spent most of the day dicking-around here. Now I am back to having LineageOS installed without root again. I tried Magisk again. No go. Same error 1. Still no root.
I can't recall a time where installing custom firmware and rooting was 100% smooth. Even when flashing in Odin all the checkboxes were greyed-out, so I couldn't even select an option if I tried. I don't know why.
Anyway, any tips to get root are greatly appreciated! SuperSU?:
