Hi,
I'm new and I was trying to root an old Samsung device (Samsung Galaxy Core Prime SMG361F).
I enabled the USB debugging and I installed the latest TWRP recovery through Odin and the process succeded. But when I entry in recovery mode I join on the classic and default recovery! Why?
I tried also to root with KingoROOT but at the end says ROOT FAILED.
I managed to root other samsung devices and it was everything ok.
Thanks everyone

Phone specs:
Samsung Galaxy S3 Verizon SCH-i535
It was already running KitKat 4.4.2 before I rooted
This is my first time rooting and flashing ROMs to my Samsung Galaxy s3 and I have bricked it. I'm pretty sure it can be salvaged but have yet to find anything that works.
I have written the long version for those who need it, but the short version is that I screwed up and can no longer boot into recovery mode or normal mode, I'm not even sure if Download mode is working, and my device isn't recognized by Kies or Odin on my PC so I cannot yet do a recovery from there.
As of now my phone only boots into Odin Mode and gives the following info:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL
QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 2
and displays the yellow triangle error and says: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use Software repair Assistant & try again.
I tried to use Samsung Kies which has an emergency firmware tool but my device will not connect and become recognized by the program.
This is pretty much where I'm stuck.
Keep reading if you need additional info.
Steps leading up to problem:
I was able to Root the device succesfully
I then downloaded the latest CM11 package (cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY-d2vzw.zip) and Gapps
I also downloaded the TWRP recovery img (openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-d2vzw.img)
Once I had these downloaded I got the app [ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool
I opened the app and tried to do a backup but I'm pretty sure it failed, or at least it said it failed. I couldn't find out how to check, but was not worried since I have already backed up my important files to the verizon cloud.
On the app I went to recover using other file and found the TWRP recovery img I downloaded.
From here I booted into recovery manually, but it did not bring up the TEAMWIN screen for TWRP like I've seen in other video tutorials so I rebooted into normal mode went to the Rashr app again and followed the prompt to do a Recovery boot using the TWRP img.
THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEMS BEGAN:
It began to lead into recovery mode but it gave a message that said something along the lines that I have tried installing a custom OS and to take my phone to the nearest verizon store.
I turned it off and tried to boot back normally but got the same error.
I tried to boot into Download mode and was successful! So I thought yaay!

I followed all the steps but when i got to 7. which said You should see your phone under ID:COM (you should also see it has been added in message) I was not seeing my phone there. I figured it may be OK since I was able to install the drivers so that meant the USB was working so I went ahead and ran Odin to recover Jelly Bean 4.3 onto the device.
My thoughts and guesses as to what the problem is:
I think that it may be because I was already running 4.4.2 and/ or didn't have the proper bootloader when I tried to do the TWRP recovery.
Am I on the right track? Thanks for any help!

Hi people,
I have installed TWRP with CF-Autoroot in the Android 5 Lollipop (and everything was ok), then I've replace It with the latest Android 6 Marshmellow and when I've tried to boot into Recovery-Mode through the TWRP application, the phone stuck in boot loop with a red string "recovery is not seandroid enforcing", so.. now I can't back to normal mode and I'm only able to enter the Download-Mode but I forget to enable the USB Debugging in the Developer Area and Odin/Adb are unable to see the attached device, is there any trick to solve my problem?
Edit: Thanks to jcadduono from #xda-devs on freenode network!
The problem is that the TWRP doesn't support the bootloader of Android 6.0, so I've downgrade the BL to Android 5.0, reinstalled TWRP and flash the BL of Android 6.0 again.
Before I enter to Recovery-Mode I must wait the TWRP kernel updates or the phone already stuck in boot-loop.
Dear Members help is needed!
The device was running 5.1.1 version and upgraded to 7.0 with FOTA.
Then the device start to stuck and restart until I got "SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 edge powered by android"
And stuck at this screen forever (NO BOOTLOOPS).
Things i tried:
1. Flash with ODIN same ROM version and downgrade versions (Didn't helped)
2. Smart Switch restore, it finished successfully but Didn't helped (Same screen)
3. TWRP ODIN and install custom ROM (Didn't helped)
4. no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1 install (Didn't helped)
More Details:
1. Cannot turn off the device, just when i'm in TWRP and pressing POWER OFF
(WHEN USB CABLE IS CONNECTED TO DEVICE IT START AUTOMATICALLY!)
2. Device Manager recognize device as "SAMSUNG Mobile USB Modem" under Download Mode
3. TWRP is the only thing that working as recovery
(After installing Original ROM Recovery doesn't works)
4. When switching to ADB Sideload device manager recognize as SAMSUNG Android ADB interface.
5. When i'm in TWRP PC shows just Internal Storage.
Any other ideas to make this phone to work?
