  5. Charge your phone up to 50% to avoid and power issues during the flashing process.

  2. If I understand your post correctly, Odin will root the phone AND install a superuser [SU] app, correct? No need to install another SU app?

  3. Sorry for the late reply. You still need to install the SU app. Odin basically roots it but SU gives the apps permission to use Root. In some cases you don't need it but 50% of the time you do need the SU app for other apps to work that need root permissions.
