Failed for me

Odin seems to work, but boot into recovery fails during "Installing system update" with "no command"

Android recovery shows:

#(fail to open recovery_cause(No such file or directory)#
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [UNKNOWN])#
No Support SINGLE-SKU
File Based OTA
Supported API: 3
E: unknown volume for path [/ odm]
E: unknown volume for path [/ vendor]
E: unknown volume for path [/ odm]
E: unknown volume for path [/ vendor]

#MANUAL MODE v1.0.0#
Sucessfully verified dmverity hash tree

Can still reboot to normal OS, so not broken, but would really like to root and custom recovery.

No
If the Warranty Bit is tripped, (if u root) the device displays Knox WARRANTY VOID: 0x01 ....is not reversible
but it is not the problem J530F does not receive android 10/ Q and the room you can write it with odin
