How to reflash from ubuntu touch to another custom ROM
-
Hi all,
I have decent-ish experience in flashing roms.
I like ubuntu touch but am wanting to change to e/OS and try it out.
I tried flashing e/OS, put the samsung galaxy s7 (my phone) in odin mode.
Adb terminal (i have an intel mac) said it was successful.
Yet i reboot to recovery mode too late and samsung being samsung i now cannot access recovery mode (you have to do it quickly otherwise doesn't show up), and the computer won't recognise my phone anymore. It can still boot normally and go to odin mode though. But I can't get into recovery mode and enable adb anymore.
How do i solve this? Can I reflash? Can i still get into recovery mode?
Or reinstall ubuntu touch via UBports and then try installing eOS again?
Many thanks!

@miloessence Switch device off. Hold home button and Volume down and press power to go into download mode. In download mode attach device to pc and run Odin. When seen in Odin, find the do not reboot and untick it. Flash the recovery (TWRP) through Odin. When complete, turn the device off. Unplug from PC. Then using the correct key combo, boot into TWRP. Sideload /e/OS from there.
UT is nicer on this device.
