So TWRP recovery is not sticking, after flashing the .tar file and pressing power and bixby , my phone just boots up into system .
Try installing Terminal Emulator type in su then enter make sure root privileges granted. Then type in svc power reboot recovery click enter

Boot will overwrite recovery if you aren't rooted and have that part fixed. One of the reasons we started with insecure boot images years ago was to overcome this.I did root as yet as I could get into TWRP. Terminal is saying : no su program found on this device. Terminal does not supply tools for rooting .

Yeah i know booting will overwrite the recovery but the recovery wasn't;t installed in the first place. When i press power + volume after installing the twrp.tar file in download mode it booted to system instead of recovery .
Probably because it was detected and overwritten before it had a chance to boot the naughty recovery.

Are you bootloader unlocked?Doesn't make sense with the root method is posted in the OP then .
Yes my bootloader is unlocked . I got it working. It was the key press combo to get into twrp after flashing from download , i was doing that wrong .

Which encryption disabler do we use, is it the one in the twrp thread for android 10 OneUI 2.5 ?.
In the text file included in your TWRP download there's instructions to flash twrp.img in the official twrp app.
1. I've tried the official twrp app on my device: "US N986U1" on android 10 and the twrp app doesn't recognize my device, i.e my device doesn't show up in the device list.
Twrp app allowed me to flash files but it always fails on android 10 for my device. So I'm not sure it's gonna work OneUI 3.0 .
2. Which twrp.img should be flashed in the official twrp app if it does work ?, there no twrp.imp included in files only TWRP.tar. I extracted the TWRP.tar and there's a "recovery" file in it , it that the file to be flashed in the official twrp app ?
Thanks @Mentalmuso I haven't been on a Note device for years but as always you provide great information. Now rocking my rooted U1. Even got Gpay going, best of all adaway is doing its thing with root method.
Magisk Hide Props config module. I chose the option to choose a valid fingerprint. Then chose samsung and note 20 ultra. Cleared data on google pay, play and play services. Rebooted. Opened play store went to play protect, backed out and then set up google pay, works fine.
You will of course need to be rooted. I have a note 20 ultra from best buy. I did pay to have the bootloader unlocked then of course rooted.
You use SM 986U ?. that's the one in list without 5G ?. I used SM 986U but it didn't work , when I went back yo timing it was showing "Edit device fingerprint active". My device is showing as SM N986U . how do i remove and go back to original prop ?.
