Successful when sideloaded the zip with adb sideload but not booting.

The phone is Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T211XXAMH3

I could not find any rom suitable for the phone. I tried NoleKat but the screen flickering like old TV set some colored lines.

But I did a mistake while flashing NoleKat I tried to copy the twrp backup of my previous rom directly by connecting via usb and copying it through data. I could not find even stock rom that was suitable for my device. T211XXBNJ3_T211ODDBNK1_INS.zip and INS-T211XXBOC1-20150615132301.zip also did not work where the first one was INS rom! The previous version of my rom was JellyBean.

After searching in XDA I got to know about this thread. I followed all your step renaming boot and system and then copying Meta INF folder from NoleKat and zipping it up. But as said when I flashed using adb twrp it said successful but when turned on the phone only Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 name is seen and not booting up further. Please help me friends. I really messed up due to lack of knowledge any sort of help would be great. If you want you can also give the firmware but as said above nothing worked so give the exact firmware not a list. So Pls. Please please please help me recover my device anyone.

:crying: :fingers-crossed:
[Android General] CVAngelo:
If you wish to restore your stock ROM just download KIES from the Samsung support website and follow the instructions in the Tools > Firmware Upgrade and Initialization. You must not connect the phone to the computer. You only connect the phone when you're instructed to do so. And it must be in download mode. Even if the computer doesn't see the phone, the KIES software will find the phone and restore the latest version of the stock firmware. You will lose everything on the phone.

I finally got it to work, but I used root explorer on my phone to extract it. It booted just fine, setup went great but... SuperSU wasn't installed and neither was the binary. It's from a deodexed rooted stock rom. How do I get it to stay in?
[Android General] logikism:
was this answered?

i mean i see extract separately but do we need a different META-INF or will that work?
[Android General] Mr Hassan:
hello bro

1st Q is that is that workable for samsung mobiles? if yes so i have backup via TWRP , and i have 2 system.win files

1.49GB and 1.50GB , so which one i used for create zip ?
[Android General] fivel_:
Hi!

I do only have these files of my old Phone (Nexus5, TWRP):

data.emmc.win

system.ext4.win

system.ext4.win.md5

system.info

Will it work on my new Nexus5?
[Android General] xBane_:
Do i select everything in the backup?

(Boot, system, system image, data, cache, recovery, EFS, securefs, BBSYS)
[Android General] Taivotat2:
As States in OP, you need META INF, a system folder and Boot img that you must collect.

Boot for start your System.Only these two from the backup. META INF you pick from another install.zip

Just a question...My phone is qualcom, Orange Roya and I hVe a backup from cwm that not boots and i found one on the internet but the battery dies when is bellow 20%..i mean it may happen at 19%,18,%,17% ....2% etc...this can help me? I mean it wont brick my phone? Curently I am on Cm 11...and I am not finding a flash tool for it
[Android General] CVAngelo:
If your phone dies under 20%, either you need to recalibrate the battery (Google how to do it), or you need a new battery.
[Android General] motionsnk:
None of them worked brother....I mean now I am on cm 11 and the battery is good now without calibrating it or change it...i tried other backup...happened the same...now i have a problem...i cannot enable fast charging mode with none programs...i maaged to do it with terminal emulator but now it won't turn on again :eek:
[Android General] ibooth2004:

Running Moto G5+ and have followed all instructions. I've been successful up to flashing. Utilizing multiple different meta-inf folders from custom roms and it stays solely on boot logo. I deodexed and zip aligned the system folder. I tried it deodexed and stock to no avail. Any suggestions?
[Android General] tophe2009:
i have a CUSTOM PORTED ROM (NOUGAT) which worked previously with phone(MM on stock and later rooted it before i used the ported rom) until i messed it up. But i previously backed up the rooted MM which i'm thankful for this tut coz there may be a chance to revive the phone. question, can i use the META-INF from the ported rom for the MM twrp backup? and another thing is, maybe you can help me out with this though it may be out of topic but here it goes anyway, can i create scatter file for this backup in case it would be succesful? thanks so much

On Windows you can rename them to:

system.ext4.win.000.tar

system.ext4.win.001.tar

They should be extractable using WinRAR (what I used)

Creating ROM from TWRP Backup of Miui 9 for Coolpad Cool 1

I made a backup with TWRP but not only of boot (boot.emmc.win) which I changed to boot.img, system (system.emmc.win) which I changed to system.tar and extracted to the folder system, and data (data.ext4.win000, data.ext4.win001, data.ext4.win002 y data.ext4.win003) which I extracted to the folder data but I backuped too system_image (system_image.emmc.win) too. My question is how I could include it. I am going to rename it to system.img and to check if it is possible. The backup is from Miui 9 and the Meta-Inf folder from that ROM too but it is custom Rom. Shouldn't I include any of the other files as data.info, system.info and the md5 files? I think it is not necessary but just asking, Iam checking to recover Base Band because my phone got bricked and any stock roms I recovered didn't get me back the base band, even if I managed to recover the IMEI's for dual Sim and the MEID or S/N number for my phone. Many thanks for this post, it is great job!

Hi a good guide but I have a problem, I do not have a system.ext4.win or any other file that begins with system. I have a file called super.emmc.win is this equivalent to the system image file.

For anybody else looking for the Meta-Inf folder here's where I found it. Unpack stock ROM and look for a file named CTA.ota.zip or similar. In my case inside this archive there is the META-Info folder. Good luck!

So no solution for this? Gyroscope stopped working on my N7 a month ago and I could get it work by flash the stock image back. But now it refuses to rotate again and this time flashing doesn't help. :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] juliatan:
I have this proble since JB till now latest KK on Nexus 7-13. Sometimes (or even often) rotate stops to work. Reflashing firmware or factory reset in the meanwhile (for other reason btw) did not solve. Can be short or days of not working rotation. Reboot worked a few times but often not. When rotation works it works good, so it is most ptobably a firmware issue.

When not working I use a 3rd party rotation app. Needed anyway for forcing reverse portrait on all apps when using tablet while charging battery and have charge-cable more convenient upside down on top of device.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] pc323:
I have the same problem on my Nexus 7 (2013). The tablet had been sent to the ASUS service center thrice and two of them are the sensor problem. The service center has repaired the tablet and the sensors worked for a week only. Now, they don't work anymore and the warranty was void.:(

The screen cannot be rotated properly. The accelerometer and gyroscope seems to be disabled when using the Sensor Kinetics to check.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jshamlet:
My daughter's 2013 Nexus 7 is having this problem right now. it started randomly crapping out, and a power cycle would fix it. Last night I did a complete overhaul, and restored a factory image. It's working for now, but I am fearing that it will die again, and the warranty period is almost up.

Should I go ahead and RMA this thing, and if so, will the fact that it appears to be working for the moment foul things up?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sahilrana:
I think it is the sensors just dying slowly

I have had the orientation sensors issue for quite sometime. It would get randomly fixed by rebooting, resetting etc. Then nothing worked. Now even the light sensor started crapping out. I installed cyanogenmod on it. Still the senosrs don't work.

I think it is all but confirmed that it is a hardware issue. The only way is to get it fixed by ASUS.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] shyrovec:
I hope Asus knows about this problem and solves it, because I have exactly the same fault!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] apfelstyle:
I have exactly the same problem. First the gyroscope sometimes doesn't work and I had to reboot to get it working again, but now it doesn't work anymore!

Already contacted ASUS and the nexus 7 will be took from DHL tomorrow.

So obviously upgrading to KitKat i lost my root.... WUPS, I'm slightly terrified to flashing back to 4.3 as i haven't found a real solid Tut on it yet.

How long do you guys thing till there will be a root available for kitkat? Any ETA?

EDIT: I'm sure there is another thread on this... I have a broken hand and 2 broken fingers on my good hand, so this alone has taken my 5 min to type and I just cant be asked to search 100 threads.

A good Flash to 4.3 tutorial would be amazing also
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] douger1957:
And you're going to attempt to root a phone? :p

The first page of the general section has several threads on the subject.

Cracking a code... which is what's involved in developing a root method is not the same as building a house. Cracking a code has many variables and dead ends, compared to building a house which is pretty straightforward. It's generally considered bad form to ask a developer how long it will take him to finish a project, especially since he or she isn't feeding their family from the effort.

If it can be done, it will be. Patience is key.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcbeat257:

There is an available root for 4.3

I googled one for you and I tested it and it works:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/root-galaxy-s4-snapdragon-600-exynos-5-android-4-3-without-warranty-void-1431730

This also makes it so that knox does not detect void so it's a very solid one.

Also, I recommend that you do a full wipe with odin before you do it, then upgrade it to 4.3 and then root it.

You can find full wipe instructions right here:

Hello,

I followed the below instructions from the attached link. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2441441

The problem I am having is after I use the “Install Recovery" button my phone goes through the install process and prompts me that I have installed Safestrap however the State of my phone says not installed. I assume that Safestrap is not installed did I do something wrong? Thanks

I also attached some screen shots as well. Phone specs: Verizon S4 Saferooted on Build VRUEMK2, Android 4.3

HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?

1.Requirement: Root

2.Requirement: Allow APK install from Unknown Sources

3.Download the Safestrap APK

4.Find the APK using a Filemanager tool and open it on your device, then click "Install".

5.(If updating from an existing Safestrap you might be warned that this will over-write the existing installation. Click the "Yes" equivalent to this message.)

6.Once installed, open up the Safestrap application as you would any other app.

7.Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..

8.Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.

9.From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.

10.That's it for the installation! Read below for a brief overview of Safestrap Recovery v3.x
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Volvogia:
Im gonna give ya the best info i can. Im new to the safestrap stuff so bare with me hopefully someone can tell me if i am wrong.

1st:

On the stafestrap page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45517751 make sure you are using the correct SS for your version. There is a MJ7/MK2 version and a ME7/MI1 build.

2nd

If you have ran and installed SS before you may need to uninstall it before you install the newer version. There is instructions on that in the link i provided also.

PS

Make sure if you get it working that you download the correct Kernel Modules for the baseband you are running. Very important.

Hope this helps, but like i said... I hope i can be backed up on this and if i am wrong that someone can tell me that lol :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Verynoob1:
Thanks Volvogia I am sure I used the correct SS download something just did not work not sure what else to do. Thanks again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Verynoob1:
Anybody have any other suggestions or has had this same issue I am having?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Volvogia:
Im running out of ideas but Im gonna do whatever I can to help you get this going. I may be doing this tonight to my girlfriends phone and I want all to go smoothly :laugh:.

This may be stuff you have tried so just ignore if you have already. Just gonna make a list.

1. Redownload the APK. Maybe its a bad download and reinstall it in your phone. Uninstall your current version and then reboot phone. Then install the newly downloaded one.

2. If you can, maybe find a little older version of SS and try it.

3. Do a complete wipe of everything on the phone and start clean after the factory reset (as long as you dont mind factory resetting your phone) and then try the SS install. (make sure you can install from unknown sources again)

4.Make sure you didnt deny the SS app superuser permissions by accident

5.Buy me a beer and maybe i can come up with something else? :laugh:. Just kidding ofcourse :silly:

Ill do what i can to find a solution for ya :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Verynoob1:
Thanks, I will try number one again as I did not do a reboot after the uninstall. I will keep you posted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Verynoob1:
I tried again with no luck I also tried the 3.70 version and that did not work. If I do a system wipe do I lose my root? And I assume I lose apps contacts as well?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Volvogia:
Root should not be lost. If it does then you can reroot. Yeah all your app / contacts / settings will be deleted. You can using Titanium Backup to back up all your apps. Gmail can back up all your contacts. Settings, unfortunately you will have to redo all these. Also, what are you using to download the SS APK?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Verynoob1:
I am downloading from the Goo.IM site to my S4 then running from the download file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Volvogia:
Maybe download on the PC then send to the phone. I very short on ideas. There has to be something we are overlooking.. small and simple...

Anyone else viewing this thread have any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Well this process shouldn't be this hard. What I would do at this point is Odin the MK2 no wipe.. so you keep all your data then use Saferoot again to root the phone. Then re download SafeStrap and try again.

Another thing are you opening up SuperSu so it can update your binary after rooting and before installing SafeStrap?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Volvogia:
Never thought of that.

Never really figured basically unrooting and rerooting the phone would help, but hey, anything that will work.

Thanks for the feedback!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
I mean I actually don't think you'd even have to Odin back either but at this point might as well just start over fresh.

Then root the phone again and make sure to update the SuperSu binary then reboot and try installing SafeStrap again. Seems like a superuser deal to me. I could be wrong... Just something I'd do to troubleshoot something like this
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Verynoob1:
I am a little hesitant to re-root as I had a problem rooting the first time but I got through it. And I am not familiar with the Odin process but I see it all over the forum. Eventually I know that I need to venture out and learn this if I am going to experiment with the S4 and other roms. At this point in time I don’t plan on changing ROMs do I really need Safestrap? All I am trying to do is this 4.3 Tether Unlock MOD? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2512981

As for the SuperSu updating the binary it did prompt me and I allowed it and I am pretty sure it was before trying to install SafeStrap. Thanks

After playing with my HTC sensation and HTC desire, I realised that android without root is useless.

After I completed all the steps for my One, I booted for my original Rom with root access.

But after every time I try to grant root access, I am seeing the message and it seems like I can't grant the permissions.

Is there a way to solve this. I tried to flash the superuser file again but it didn't help.
