REQUIREMENTS *.You are to follow this guide on the Samsung Galaxy J1 only.
Attempting to install the files in this guide on a different device can easily brick that device.
BEFORE WE BEGIN *.Download the Samsung USB Drivers for mobile phones from the official Samsung websites page.
*.Double-check that the Developer Options menu is already enabled.
Do that by pointing to the Settings > Developer Options.
Those who do not see the Developer Options available from the Settings menu must unlock the hidden menu by tapping over the build number from the About Device menu 7 or so times.
*.Those that already do see the Developer Options menu can tap and enter that menu and enable the USB Debugging Mode from inside.
Now that the USB Debugging Mode is enabled, you can connect to the computer and start your guide.
*.By following the TWRP recovery on Samsung Galaxy J1 guide, you are voiding the warranty terms and conditions.
Since the agreements are now void, you cannot expect to send it away for free repairs under warranty.
Conversely, you can flash a stock recovery and delete the custom recovery and the warranty should work again./color]

You know it’s complete when your device reboots and the Odin flashing tool says that it passed on the display.
Most failed attempts or no color in the ID: COM port are usually a result of the USB drivers not working.

If you did download them already, try rebooting the Windows PC.
Sometimes a driver requires a reboot to get working properly.
