Root t-mobile galaxy s6 failed, please help

Here is what I did to root my t-mobile samsung galaxy s6:
1. Open the developer option -> turn on “OEM unlock”
2. Download Odin on PC at odindownload.com
3. Download the file for my device T-Mobile (SM-G920T) at twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys6.html
4. Run Odin as administrator, click on "AP" to load the download tar file
5. Turn off device
6. Turn on device (lower volume + power + home key), then press turn volume up key to the download mode
7. Connect device to computer
8. Click on “Start” in Odin.
9. Run successfully.
10. Device reboot and got error "Verification failed. Unable to restart your device. The integrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings"
11. Restart the device or "wipe cache partition" on the recovery mode, I was able to reboot.
12. Installed "Root checker", it says "sorry root access is not properly installed on this device"
with the error at steps 10 and 12. Can you help me to successfully root my t-mobile galaxy s6?
I notice that on the page twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys6.html, says:
"Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."
I tried to find the way to boot into TWRP before the first reboot. but I can't figure it out how.
Please help me to root galaxy s6.
Thank you

Yes we can move it if we add the A50s (you might need to remind us though)
It's quite common to create a device thread in a "close-match" forum while waiting to see if a new (more precise device) forum is created.
So long as the thread is clearly titled (as this one is) then it's ok.

@redymedan Very nice works !!
i will try this but i have some concern before root my phone that are
- How can i fully backup all my app and appdata?
the root require full wipe data , factory reset , it is hard for backup everything when we dont have twrp for a50s yet (im not sure if it also require to full wipe when install twrp) and adb backup method only backup some playstore app but not the outside app , or some apps that developer dont give permission to adb backup such as steam
- and what can i do if i accident get bootloop or soft brick? does flash a stock rom will fix these?

For backup all your data, you can try Samsung Smart Switch and If something goes wrong like bootloop, soft brick, Just flash the ROM to make it works again.

Right click and select extract here or extract to same name with the file name, It will create a folder like the file name. Make sure 7zip installed on your PC

INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR ANY ROM FOR AGS-XXX (Mediapad T5)

Hello there. Hope this helps!
FIRST OF ALL, this WILL VOID your waranty. Read the steps BEFORE doing anything
ALSO PLEASE READ THE NOTES AT THE BELOW POST.
UNLOCK BOOTLOADER: It's not "easy" at all (You'll have to open your tab).
Go to device info on tab settings.
Press compilation number for several times until "you're a dev" message appears (It'll prolly ask your pattern/password to continue).
Go to dev options and enable OEM unlocking.
Shut down the tab.
Download PotatoNV sofware from here. (Credits to mashed-potatoes)
Download minimal adb and fastboot from here.
Prepare your environment:
Open your tablet
Grab a clip or a cable
Keep your cool
Follow the steps shown here. KEEP THE GENERATED CODE. This will avoid you from opening again the tablet in the case you have to do a downgrade. The way to unlock it again is writting
Code:
"fastboot oem unlock <code>"
at fastboot mode.
Here you have an image of where the testpoint is.
FLASH TWRP INTO THE TAB:
Follow CAREFULLY this steps:
Shut down the tab
Connect the tab to the PC and hold vol- & pwr button.
Now it'll appear a white screen with some text. If it appears "OEM unlock" in green, then everything's fine. IF NOT, follow unlock bootloader steps again. Then try rebooting into fastboot mode again (vol- & pwr).
Download Pretoriano80 .5 version TWRP from here.
Open Minimal ADB and Fastboot and write this:
"fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk path_of_twrp.img"
It should appear everything OK.
Type "fastboot reboot"
Fastly disconnect the tab from PC and hold vol+ & pwr button before Huawei logo appears (if it appears, just do a hard reboot (hold pwr button) and try again (just hold vol+ and pwr, no need to go back to fastboot).
You're now booting into TWRP!
RESOURCE DOWNLOAD
DOWNLOADING UNTESTED ROMS MAY LEAD TO MAJOR ERRORS
All HI6250 ROMs are "compatible" in some way, wouldn't recommend to install unless proven
A list with all tested and proven to work ROMs can be found here
Download any ROM you want from the above link. The list will be increasing with the time
Download the data decrypter from the MEGA folder (you can also find the link in the ROM list)
(OPTIONAL) you can download gapps. You can also download the version worked for me (little outdated) at the same MEGA link and update them later at the PlayStore.
(OPTIONAL) You can download Magisk from the "ZIPS" folder at the Mega link. GENERIC MAGISKS MAY (99%) NOT WORK ON THE GSIS.
PREPARATION STEPS
Boot into TWRP (vol- & pwr buttons while tab is off)
Don't make system Read Only (Just swipe the first window). This will lead you to a multiple choice menu
Head to INSTALL and select the decryter you will have in a SD card.
Swipe to confirm installation
Go again to main menu and head to WIPE and select "Format data option".
Type "yes" on the keyboard and press enter.
Then go to main menu and head to REBOOT>RECOVERY
If a message appears saying you to install TWRP app, just decline it.
Once in TWRP again, head to WIPE>ADVANCED WIPE and select dalvink/art cache, cache, data and system.
MARKING OTHER THAN THIS OPTIONS WILL LEAD TO AN IMPORTANT ERROR.
Return to main menu
THERE ARE 2 WAYS TO INSTALL A ROM:
1 -- VIA FASTBOOT:
Reboot your tab into fastboot mode (vol- & pwr buttons while connected to PC)
Open minimal adb and fastboot and type:
Code:
fastboot flash system <path_of_rom>.img
Now, wait... (Sparse header file error it's normal)
Once it has finished, type: "fastboot reboot" and disconnect from PC
2 -- VIA TWRP:
Once in TWRP head to INSTALL, press the "install image file" button.
Now head to the route where the .img file of the ROM is.
Select it, in the multiple choice menu select "SYSTEM IMAGE" and swipe to confirm installation.
Once finished, reboot to ROM or continue with the steps in order to get Google or Root working.
