Trying to install on a Samsung Note 9 (SM-N960F).
After download i get "Bootloader unlocked successfully" however on the phone screen there is a message "only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed" so I ma not sure if the process was successful or not.
The instruction states "VOL Down + HOME + Pwr until phone screen goes black then switch to VOL UP", these instruction are incorrect for my phone, on my phone there is no HOME button, and to reboot from download mode you need to hold vol down + pwr, to go into download mode you need to hold hold down + bixby, i tried rebooting into download mode after the "successful" message but it just remains at the download mode screen, nothing happens.

(I dont have the "OEM Unlock" option in the developer options)

any help really appreciated.
thanks

Thanks for the info.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to take a closer look at this in the next weeks because I will soon have an important final exam which I have to prepare for. My guess is that I will get to this sometime in April.
But, in the meantime, you might want to search for tutorials and more information about your exact N960F model on XDA, maybe starting somewhere here.

The issue was the OEM Unlock, I did not have that option, I found a comment somewhere that the device needs to be connected to the internet in order for the option to appear and bingo, connected the device an the option appeared.

Awesome!
Let's keep this issue open as a reminder for me to add a notice for Samsung device owners about this. I will also need to update the instructions with the hardware keys.

Not sure to which models it applies but mine is Note 9 (SM-N960F).
hardware keys;
RECOVERY = VOL UP + BIXBY + PWR.
DOWNLOAD = VOL DOWN + BIXBY
