If you get stuck in recovery and can't boot into Android, you need to install the stock recovery to get Android to boot.

Stock recovery flashable zip located HERE.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

READ THIS POST BEFORE INSTALLING ANY CUSTOM RECOVERY

CWM Recovery 6.0.4.8

(TWRP is in post 3, Philz Touch in post 4)

Click HERE for the latest version.

Please report any bugs here in this thread.

Thank you to everyone who has (and still will) help in testing!!!!

Credits go to:

[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] for device and kernel source trees

and of course Koush and the CyanogenMod team

Watch THIS VIDEO tutorial for a step by step visual guide for performing the instructions listed below (thanks [MENTION=4246643]Tomsgt[/MENTION] for the video).

Instructions:

1. Download ODIN on your computer.

2. Power off the device.

3. Restart in "Download Mode" by holding the "HOME" button, "Volume Down" and "Power" all at the same time (for about 5 seconds).

4. Hit the "Volume Up" to enter download mode.

5. Start the ODIN exe program. Un-check Auto Reboot. See notes about ODIN below.

6. Connect the device via USB to your computer. Verify the device shows as "Added" in the Message box. If it doesn't show then you need the Samsung USB drivers (just install KIES to get them). Also need to enable USB debugging.

7. Select "PDA" (or AP) then choose the recovery file you want to flash. (Unzip the file you downloaded so that you have a file named "recovery.tar.md5".)

8. Hit "START". Wait for Odin to finish (~10-15 seconds). The message area will display "RES OK" when finished.

9. Restart directly to recovery mode before rebooting into OS.(Hold POWER, Volume UP, and the HOME button all at the same time. When you see the Samsung Logo, let go of the POWER button, but keep holding the Volume UP and HOME until you see the recovery screen).

Notes about ODIN

--Make sure that "Re-Partition" is NOT checked.

--Auto Reboot can be un-checked if CWM doesn't flash correctly on your device. Some have reported that un-checking Auto Reboot fixes this issue. If you un-check Auto Reboot, you will need to reboot the device yourself (refer back to step 9).

After you get the custom recovery working, you can flash the latest SuperSu zip to get root.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Watch this video to learn about the navigation issues and Rainbow Mode: http://youtu.be/iCNdxlNzdBI

If the highlight doesn't move on the recovery menu, the selection actually does change. Go ahead and hit Power to select. If the menu goes blank, just hit Volume Up or Down to get it to reappear.

It appears that the menu navigation issue only happens when you use the button combination to boot into recovery. If you use the Quick Boot app or "adb reboot recovery", it seems to work properly. Only use the 3-button method to boot into recovery.

Flash at own risk!!!!

TWRP is reported to be causing problems for now. Please use CWM or Philz Touch (post 4) for now.

TWRP 2.7.0.1 (unofficial)

Click HERE to download the latest version.

I do not have a T110, so this recovery has not been tested by me. Please report if it works for you.

Same install instructions as above.

After installation, you may experience slow behavior in recovery if you use the button combination to boot into recovery. Using Quick Boot from the play store or any other software method to boot into recovery will solve this problem.

Internal card gets mounted as "/data/media/0".

Please report any issues here in this thread and be sure to include which recovery you are using.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

If you already have root, you can extract the recovery.img from this zip and flash it without Odin by using Flashify from the Play Store.

Hi, thanks for the share of recovery, i have a problem tho, the device is in a bootloop of recovery, i press reboot to system in twrp and it reboots to twrp, if i power off the tablet and power on it boots to twrp, i've factory reset but stills reboots to twrp, what can i do?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Did you wipe anything while booted into recovery? I sounds like system or boot was wiped. You may need to flash the stock firmware in Odin.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] mhopewell41:

i flashed stock! not necesarry unless you do something wrong i think.. then i installed supersu from play store. and then rebooted to download mode. and installed cwm with odin 3.09 and powered the device on. made it fully boot. then turned it off. then press power, volume up and home. and then cwm started. another might just start when connecting usb. one of them should work. then installed SUPERSU zip from Chainfire. download it from his page.. instead of that root zip that was supplied here. SUPERSU makes the difference i think.. do it like this and hopefully it will work out for you too! me and my girlfreind has now been sitting here on skype and using splashtop in 13 hours.. we managed to root her Galaxy Tab 3 Lite T110! succesfully!!

HI! I just purchased an Galaxy Tab 3 SM T-110 . After root the OTG feature is working? I intend to use an USB 3G modem with it.Any chance to do so?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] piats:
I just got (won) this tab but I can't install any custom recovery. I tried CWM & TWRP. I tried Odin 3.07 & 3.09. Odin says that recovery flash is successful. I have tried to reboot at first and then boot in the recovery but it boots to stock recovery. If I untick auto reboot option in Odin and try to boot straight to recovery it won't boot to recovery. I just get black screen. Even if I try to hold 4-5 minutes vol up + home buttons as soon as I see samsung welcome screen. But now I can see in download mode that I have custom recovery and my system status is custom. But as said the tablet boots only to stock recovery.

Anyone got solution for this?

My firmware:

PDA: T110XXUANB2

CSC: T110OXXANA5

MODEM: T110XXUANB2
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] piats:
Thank you my man. I followed your instructions and got installed cwm & cf root. I flashed stock fw via odin at first and now everything works.

Just got this baby rooted last night. Runs much better after debloating all the Sammy junk. Cant wait for the 1st custom ROM. Ill be checking in daily. We should try and push for a separate Lite 3 section?!?

Are you running that ROM by chance? It looks very different from the conventional aosp Roms I would normally flash. I ask because now that I have Nova instead on touchwizz and all debloated, its not too bad.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] safariking:
no im not running it i have a T210 not a T110 that rom is based on stock i recently pushed out stockrom series wich is also based on stock but it isn't debloated but it will be in V2

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] safariking:
yeah posted it today MAKE A BACKUP IT IS UNTESTED!
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
Yeah, that brings me to a question for the OP actually- it seems everytime I try to do a back up running TWRPs latest it almost finishes and then fails for some reason... At first it was because I was trying to save to device which didn't have enough storage, but even when I switch the nandroid save over to my external 32gb card it almost finishes then fails... Any advice would be appreciated. I do have the stock firmware and Odin so I do have some type of failsafe.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Provide me a recovery.log when the error happens. In TWRP, there should be a "copy log to SD" button.

I don't even have this Tab (T110) to test on, so I won't be making any roms for it. But, I have updated TWRP to version 2.7.0.1. Please let me know if the backup works correctly now. I even included a flashable version to make it easier (only flashable from a non-stock recovery).

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
I'm thinking there's something different about this tab regarding flashing and such. I upgraded TWRP by flashing in custom recovery. It worked. Then before rebooting, did a back up. That also worked, however when I tried to reboot it went back to TWRP. There was no way for me to boot into my stock ROM. I used Odin and flash stock firmware again and installed the older TWRP which I managed to flash SuperSU through and regain root again. Wheeew!

And yes I also tried to restore my backup, still only TWRP.

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] SelfElevated2:
Yeah I seen they awhile ago. Problem is he didn't build it for the t110 and he stated somewhere in his thread that sometimes it bootloops after being in recovery so you gotta flash something in odin to get out of the loop. So while I appreciate his work that's a little much so I just waited for some one to actually build a rom for t110. Thanks safariking

Okay i saw you already posted on my Stockrom thread let me kno how it goes
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gamerZ1:
Ok so i instaled TWRP and stupid me factory reseted the device i think i deleted the ROM.It only boots to recovery.How do i restore the ROM?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
You need to download the firmware andmthen flash it w Odin. After you do that you'll need to reflash recovery and root again.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
Welp I tried to flash safarikings stock ROM through the latest TWRP. It did some funky stuff and said SEL Linux kernel something or other. Tried to boot back into TWRP to get a log but all I get it the Samsung boot screen. So its back to Odin I go. I'm going to try clockwork or Phil's I think. Sorry for not being able to get any data for you gr8nole.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
Hey there gr8nole. It seems clockwork recovery is much more responsive. I still wasn't able to preform a back up. It said not able to make image of back up data. I also tried to flash stockrom v1.1. The error on that was status 7 installation aborted. I reported error but couldn't figure out logcat as I'm not familiar w this recovery. The good news it I was able to flash SuperSU and when I rebooted it went into my OS instead of wiping/recovery loop.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gamerZ1:
I have a question does the back-up and restore feature is working in one of those recoveries?I dont want to screw up the tablet every time i factory reset it?I tried to install a customROM and it boots only to TWRP.Well i need to put the stock ROM.I only wanted the root it and delete that samsung bloatware.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
Well you could install clockwork and.flash SuperSU or the root.zip. There's no sure way to back up though other than flashing firmware in Odin. I actually did the same thing your talking about. Just be careful what you remove as far as bloat and you shouldn't need a back up. It's scary though. But you always have the firmware flash as a failsafe.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gamerZ1:
So how do i flash it via Odin.After this tutorial on sammobile site?

Instructions

Extract (unzip) the firmware file

Download Odin v3.09

Extract Odin zip-file

Open Odin v3.09

Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

Add the firmware file to AP / PDA

Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked

Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes

I think is this one the log file(TWRP 2.7.0.0).Extract and open it with a text editor.

I tried Philz Touch and its working rooted the device etc.Now I will try to factory reset it again to see if this Custom recovery delets eveything again.

I deleted all the samsung boatware form the tablet running smooth :D
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Thanks for the log. Unfortunately, it doesn't contain any useful info. Did it reboot correctly after this log was created, or was this from one of the times it wouldn't reboot into OS?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
Used Phil's last night. It actually completed a back up. I tried to flash stockrom and it said binaries need update. So then it wiped OS. However this time I simple restored back up in Phil's. Hey its progress, right.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
That update binary message is not a problem. It just means the rom dev used the older update binary (still very commonly used).

Did it not boot after you flashed the rom?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] jto101680:
It started going through the motions, then flashed the binary thing then instantly booted to the Samsung boot screen. Then I manually rebooted to recovery and restored.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Try again and send me the recovery.log.
