Been searching for "APPs safe to remove" list from GT-P5210. No luck. Would a similar list for other Samsung devices be close?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] cduced:
Yes. That would be a good starting point. Ideally, have a backup...
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] newbie4ever:
I would just freeze them with titanium backup... So much easier than to unfreeze than to reflash a rom
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] purplepizza:
Looks like a good place to start. Using TB, I will freeze the unwanted apps listed in the script, if no problems, eventually delete from the ROM.

Be careful with this script. After you run it, you will likely find that your gallery will no longer work. I never really took the time to figure out what the issue was. It is a good starting point if someone wanted to build a new debloat scrip though. -- Bud

Excuse my noobness I'm new to Samsung and am going to root my new tab 3 p5210 this week. There are two pre-root files on page 7 and I'm not sure which one to use. Please advise.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] pug1:
I would personally root using the method in the cwm thread by dutchdanny, by flashing twrp (in twrp thread)(as it works better than cwm atm) UNCHECHING auto reboot in odin, then three button to recovery once odin flags up the blue reset indicator above the connected device, flash root.zip and reboot.

Then flash one of the roms pimpdroid/grievous in dev section

Just DONT wipe /data or /system you may get boot loop. Just do factory wipe

Happy flashing

Thanks for the information, finally go a minute to root?. My only hang up was that my wife installed kies and needed to uninstall it because if a conflict with odin.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] rodrigoperu:
damn it I'm getting tired of the nonsense...

according to sammobile, that rom is the UK one. Sammobile does not show any US-specific firmware :confused:.

for me this whole thing started when I tried rooting with KingO software (supposed to be easy, one button no fuss process) and was left with a brick... stuck on the "galaxy tab3" boot screen, no options to choose from and nowhere to go.

I can boot up to load mode (power and + volume), (says odin mode, downloading, do not turn off target) but still was stuck there. that's when I started looking and found this thread about rooting with Odin. I got the file, fired up Odin, and then it took a long time to get the past the "check MD5" screen, literally a couple of minutes (which at this point seemed like half an hour at least.

nearly crapped myself before this... but finally got it to download, got the little status bar moving...B] I lost none of my **** on the tablet[/B].. :rolleyes:. but hey, got the tablet back to work. Root? NO GO!!! :crying: I'm getting tired of this roming/rooting/hacking stuff, it's fun, but not when your toddler keeps you on a constant state of sleep deprivation, added stress is NOT welcome. I can see why some people prefer iOS, although I'm sure that if I ever went apple I'd still try to hack things around. that's life I guess for those of us that expect more from these expensive toys than what the manufacturers want to let us have.

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

so long story short the firmware (at least the one I had) was P5210UEUANB2 (this was the most recent update by Samsung) and I found the file here... it's on a zip, 1.5gb heavy, and the download will take me 7 hrs... at least it's available if you need it.

http://www.romso.net/samsung/GT-P5210/

I'm downloading it because the only thing that seems broken after this debacle is the weather widget, it's available but crashes every time. not a big deal at all, but I want the toy to go back to the way it was before... I FREAKING HATE HAVING TO BREAK STUFF BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURERS REFUSE TO GIVE USERS FULL ACCESS TO WHAT WE PAY FOR. STOP THIS B.S.!

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Raindeux:
Is "Pre_Rooted_P5210XXUAMG6_P5210OXXAMG3.tar.md5" a file I'm supposed to download or is it part of the odin 3.07 file? Am I supposed to download the original firmware or what? I'm a little confused.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Brian D:
Yes. It is a file you will download from wherever the OP placed it.

You should always have a copy of the OEM Firmware for your device on your PC just in case something happens and you need to reinstall. However, you should also have a backup of your device. This way you can get back to where you were before something happened. No back up? Then reload the OEM Firmware.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] firebirdude:
Ok. After having troubles getting Odin to see my Tab, I got that figured out. I had to install Kies. Not Kies 3. I even installed some Samsung drivers by themselves before this, but apparently they didn't do the trick. As soon as I installed Kies, Odin recognized the Tab and looked like it was working fine. However, once it reboots by itself, I power down the Tab and reboot into recovery by holding volume up and power. CWM did not flash. Odin looked like everything went smooth. No errors in the little message box. But my recovery just says "Android system recovery" at the top. And if I save the root.zip file to my SD card and select "apply update from external storage", the root.zip does appear there. But trying to apply it fails with a few red lines and the Tab reboots itself.

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] firebirdude:
I finally got it. After reading through this article, I see that the factory ROM re-flashes the factory recovery automatically if you boot back into the ROM before flashing the root.zip. So the key here, which I didn't see noted in anybody's walkthrough, is to have "auto-reboot" unchecked in Odin. Once Odin is done flashing CWM, unplug the USB cable, hold the power button until the tablet shuts off, hold the volume up and power buttons until it displays the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 3" logo, release the power button but continue holding the volume up button for a couple more seconds, release volume up. Boom. That should get you into CWM recovery. PLEASE NOTE: if you do not let go of the volume up button at all, the tablet will go from the SGT3 logo, to blank, and restart over again right into the factory ROM. It's strange I know. I didn't see anybody else mention this either. But I fell into this little loophole like 3 times. So release the volume up button after the power button, but before the SGT3 logo disappears.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
Hey all just got this from a co worker as I revived a few others, but haven't seen this...any ideas?

UPDATE: got it fixed...the screen problem was from a corrupt NVRAM mmcblk0p12..It was missing tokens as well...first i ran tpdebrick-v004 to get it booted to this the crazy screen, then made a meta doctor that bypassed the token check by going into meta-doctor,and this is where it was hard to get things to complete how i wanted...from meta doctor wiki the commands are a tad off for our device and what i needed to do..using the link http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Sprint_Pre_Plus#Step_2:_Setup_meta-doctor as referance I cloned meta-doctor *but instead of putting the webos doctor 3.0.5 in the downloads folder i put in webosdoctor3.0.0 renamed to 3.0.5

1.Ran "make unpack" then went in and edited the recoverytool.config to remove the approvalbuildname,approvalcharliehash,and approvalmikehash.(i then edited the topaz.xml file in the webos folder to add tokens from another 32gb i had..(unknown consequences though)but should have worked without?.

THEN 2.Ran "make patch"

3.then ran "make DEVICE=touchpad CARRIER=wifi all" it will skip the make unpack and make patch commands and use your modified ones..these are the steps that seemed to be the differance for me and were not found..Maybe i shoulda known:p

4.membooted the device to rebuild the partitions(had to do this step multiple times as i was getting all the known errors)

5.Ran the modified webosdoctor from meta doctor and SUCCESS!!

And this was done multiple times til it all went smooth with no errors in one pass.*once the modified webosdoctor was made all i had to do was the tpdebrick and partition rebuild without error for the doctor to complete...sorry for the ramble....stoked

So maybe this can help someone else in the same spot as me.This was all done on ubuntu12.04 wubi

I had this on a touchpad once, never did get it working again.

I'm sure I read somewhere its down to a corruption in the gpu and is pretty bad news.

Would be interesting to hear if you manage to revive it...
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
Thanks for the reply...I can get it recognized as palm, and qhdload...holding power and volume up I can get the xp computer to see palm novacom bootie in device manager.. and can get webos doctor to start and it either hangs at 0%,8%,or 12% randomly..I know of those fixes but haven't been able to replicate them to do them yet... I also ran tpdebrick and have the info file from that showing a few errors...also ran acmeuninstaller and the screen went to the dual penguins, so that gives me some hope that it'll work... if it was the gpu would the screen work during that process? Any pointers or direction to be headed in let me know...I'll update with any progress...I feel it can be fixed...how can I access SD card thru terminal commands to see the dir.?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
Penguin screen from acmeuninstaller...still hope? And I can't get novaterm to connect...I could redo the lvm if I could connect to it...seems like that's where its stuck..thanks in advance..
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris5s:
Hm, seems like you're having a little more luck with yours than I did.

I did pretty much everything you've done and reached a dead end. Now it no longer has the weird screen, just black.

I haven't been able to communicate with it, through adb or novaterm, which seems like the best way to access dirs and internal file structure/partitioning.

Even running ubuntu on a usb stick I couldn't get in...

But you're right, there's cause for hope!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
If u still have that TP leave it on the charger for a LONG time and that screen might pop back up...I only have about 30 mins to do stuff to it before its battery is too low again..after about 30 mins the screen just goes black(with backlight) but won't let novacom or novaterm connect until I charge again....

Well I got novaterm to connect...me being stupid forgot to go and hit connect haha..with that I was able to get root@webos so went here http://xdaforums.com/show thread hop?t=1426244 but the first lvm.static vgscan --ignorelockingfailure comes back with reading all volumes. May take a while... But stops instantly and back at root@webos..same with the second lvm.static vgchange.-ay --ignorelockingfailure ...continuing on lvm.static vgcreate -s 8M store /dev/mmcblk0p. Comes back with not an existing volume, unable to add to /Dev/mmcblk0p to volume group"store"

So seeing that tried lvm.static pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p 14 and got Device dev/mmcblk0p not found( or ignore by filtering) and Device 14 not found or ignored by filtering... Thought I'd keep it all up to date so if this can help me or anyone else ya know...I can get webosdoctor to 8% every time now but that's it..been trying the fixes listed but get stuck at fix_dos_sh.fs not found and the mkdosfs -f 1 -s 64 /dev/store/media comes back with something similar like the store not found.. Just an update
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris5s:
I do still have it, might just stick it on over the next few and see if I can't get somewhere with it.

Looks like you're on the right track anyways, just gotta find that magic formula.

I'll look through the resources I've used when doctoring in the past, see if there's anything I can throw at you but looks like you've got it all covered...

Keep it up!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
Ya throw it on...who knows right I'll let ya know if I get it and could help...I just got it past all the lvm commands and everyrhing seemed to take fine..just didn't have enough battery to doctor yet....fingers crossed itll take n show a normal screen when it/if it finishes.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris5s:
Ok, good luck with that.

Having used tpdebrick, did you look around the original tpdebrick v0.1 thread? Theres a useful discussion throughout, but I think somewhere around p25, but def somewhere between 20-30, there's more specific info about reading/writing partition info and getting a TP stuck in bootie mode to respond.

I tried using the dfu-util cmd mentioned in one post - there was other stuff about logs eetc - which resulted in a brief flash of the lcd - and my hope - but nothing after. Might be worth a look around if you haven't been there already....

Cheers, peace
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
Great thanks...I haven't read much on the v1 tpdebrick only the v4..I'll look at that today...
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
OK just an update...still the same, but narrowed it down to missing tokens in the NVRAM mmcblk0p12 block...running java - jar web doctor came back with tokens not found..should have been empty...I can bypass that with meta doctor and now stopping at 12% because of bad volume sizes...getting close I think...

But u were/are correct about the GPU..it is on the same block...I think it is only for the boot...so should be OK... :)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F.T.P.:
FIXED!!!! Reran tpdebrick, made meta-doctor to bypass token check as the nvram tokens were missing.. Then reset the partitions and ran the doctor...and success....I can say to ppl that there are a ton of minuet steps that will throw the whole process off if not done from start to finish perfectly...well we can see now that it is recoverable!!! Any help I can offer to anyone let me know here or pm......happy :)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris5s:
Wow, amazing man!

I can't even get mine to the psychedleic screen now, just runs thru the tpdebrick process, says All Done!, then nada ...

I know there are other threads about international rom on tmobile s4 but none says anything about stock roms.

I flashed stock I9505 Rom on my tmobile galaxy s4 through CWM and worked flawlessly. It is much better than tmobile, bug free, has APP to SD, and is latest Samsung firmware.Everything works including 4G LTE without adding APN. Alos, you can get free hotspot without hacking.

Grab the rom you want from the below link and flash it through TWRP or CWM. Dont need to flash the file through ODIN for wifi fix ( its for international).

When you flash remove KNOX files via Root Explorer or Titanium Backup.

Hi to everyone, I got my S a few days ago and I'm very satisfied. Of course I've applied a screen protector on it, but it doesn't look good, because it doesn't follow the curvature of the screen around the edges. I did make a search but no product states what I'm looking for.

Has anybody found something that will look better or even smaller protector that ends when the curve starts?

Thank you in advance.:good:
