Twrp will not install

My N900T had TWRP on it at one point and after using "Hide My Root" and then restoring the settings and deleting that app my phone would no longer boot into TWRP RECOVERY. I have tried installing using Odin to no avail and tried using TWRP MANAGER. I again rooted with CF-Auto-Root and I am able to install CWM but I don't like the interface. I have tried the official TWRP App and I tried using TWRP MANAGER and that won't work either. I then contacted TWRP MANAGER'S tech support and was informed that CF-Auto-Root locked my bootloader making it impossible for TWRP to install. I can however still install CWM.

Is it true that my bootloader is now locked?

Can it be unlocked again?

How do I get back my TWRP?

Tmobile never had a Locked Bootloader on your device - So I can't think of anyway that you could accidentally lock it - Since you can get into Download Mode - You should have no problems Flashing the CORRECT version of TWRP 3.1.1-0 hlte img.tar with Odin 3.12.3 - Which Recovery are you trying to Flash?

I had TWRP 3.1.1-0 hlte img.tar using Odin 3.11.1 and it worked a few times up until this recent issue but when it stopped working on my phone then it stopped loading from Odin. Actually Odin always says it passed but it is absolutely not able to boot into TWRP on my phone.

Try this - Get Odin 3.12.3 from sammobile.com (be aware that just using Google to search for Odin 3.12.3 will likely send you to some questionable sites! sammobile.com is safe!) and install it on your computer - BEFORE you Flash TWRP - Pull the battery out of your device to make certain it's off - Don't power up your phone - Boot directly into Download Mode and Flash the TWRP img.tar

if you guys have issues where TWRP never loads after flashing via odin uncheck -AUTO REBOOT- option and when flashing is done go straight into recovery UP VOL+POWER+HOME
