NOTE 1: Can I Flash the Product and ODM via TWRP
No, you cannot flash product.img and odm.img using TWRP Recovery. If you try to do so, you’ll be greeted with the “Size of Image is Larger than the Target Device” error message. Therefore, you’ll have to boot to FastbootD Mode and flash it there [you cannot flash in Fastboot Mode because Samsung devices don’t have it!].
NOTE 2: Cannot Boot to TWRP from FastbootD
If the fastboot reboot recovery cannot boot your device to TWRP from the FastbootD Mode, then use the fastboot reboot command, This will try to boot your device to the OS but will end up triggering the Android Rescue Party Mode, and hence your device will automatically boot to the TWRP Format Data screen. From there, just do a Format Data and then go to Reboot > System. Your device will then boot to the OS!
