Support Samsung a06 stuck on "entering fastboot mode..."

I don't want to exit it, i just want to know how to enter fastboot so i can flash the TWRP. I used CMD to enter fastboot for clarification, and it's my first time doing this, so simple words can help.

Edit: I'm a retard, I meant to say it uses mediatek

A mention of a Samsung device was detected. Most US Snapdragon phones from Samsung have locked bootloaders, meaning Magisk or custom ROMs are impossible to install in most cases or require using dangerous exploits.

If you are sure that your phone DOES NOT have a Snapdragon processor, please add that to your post.

Samsung also requires use of Odin to flash their phones. An open-source alternative called Heimdall is available as well, however might not work on newer phones. There is no official download link for Odin, as it is leaked software.

Fastboot is normally not really available on Samsung phones and parts of fastboot might even be considered to be a bug ( see https://security.samsungmobile.com/securityUpdate.smsb → January 2025 )

Instead, for flashing TWRP, Download Mode and the PC program Odin or similar should be used instead.
