Root How long does an ODIN flash take?

There is a Blue Stats Bar that shows across the Bottom on your Phone under the "Download" guy. Once that is Full you can unplug and Reboot. Also your Odin on the Computer show indicate when it finished.
 
Should take 2-3 minutes, not 10-15. Sometimes it gets stuck - You'll have to take the battery out and try again - Chances are you'll have the computer--!--phone icon - Put it into download mode and try it again.
 
This happened to me as well. You have to do things in a certain order, ie, go into download mode first, then open up Odin and THEN plug in your phone.
 
Usually I:

1) Go into Odin so that app is up on your computer
2) Put in the battery
3) Hold down both volume buttons
4) plug in USB
*The phone should go into Download mode and on your computer COM 3/4 should appear
5) Flash away and wait until the phone comes back up. If it seems like it is stuck just keep waiting.
 
I have the same issue but, I went to plug my phone (Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge) in and the 'Downloading... Do Not Turn Off , Target' appeared, and it has been up on my phone for about an hour... What do I do? I have tried many things.
 
Needing to get out of ODIN / Download mode?

You have to press and hold in this sequence...

1st .... Vol Down (hold)
2nd...Power (hold)

While holding for 10 seconds it will now reboot
