I tried and work 100%.
Note 5 SM-N920C
1) I download Twrp from https://dl.twrp.me/noblelte/twrp-3.1.0-0-noblelte.img.tar.html
2) Use Twrp to flash @dr.ketan custom SuperSU script https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...persu-t3570740 (I download the attachment). and copy it to your phone to install it later.
3) I download Odin3 and open it
4) power off the phone -> then press and hold volume down, home and power button.
5) I plug the phone to PC then a blue icon will appear in the Odin that means is connected.
6) I click AP and I choose Twrp that I downloaded in 1.
7) the phone will restart and if not boot you have to click and hold (up and down volume button, menu, and power button) until the phone shutdown then clicks and hold up volume, home, and power button. twrp will start and select something by sliding to left then click install. and choose the zip file that downloaded in 2 then reboot the device and will root and work inshallah.

Does this method reset the phone? I mean all user data and apks are wiped out?

1. The only option ticked in Odin should be F. Reset Time - NO "Restart"!!!!!
2. Flash with no automatic reboot.
3. Without rebooting the device after flashing TWRP (!!!!), you have to boot into TWRP recovery in a special way (!!!!).
To do this, press and hold Volume Down + Home + Power key on your device,
as soon as the screen goes black, immediately switch the key from Volume Down to Volume Up
while having the Power + Home Key pressed.
This will take you to the TWRP recovery.

It worked for me :)

Then afterwards you always get to TWRP.

Download PGP Signature twrp-3.1.0-0-noblelte.img.tar.asc : What is this file ? Do I have to flash this first before the TWRP file ?
I had failed my flashing of the TWRP as after that in download mode I saw this : FAB lock is on ??

Fist of all make sure you have enabled OEM bootloader unlock in developer options, if its not enabled it will always give you fail on Odin. After its enabled just download twrp flash image from 1st post and flash it, the img file should be in .tar format not the asc one. Also make sure to untick Auto-reboot option in Odin.
