You don't even know how desperate I was :p I've been watching every thread on this forum for recoveries, roms, and any other sort of modifications since the tablet was released... Good to see after almost a year progress has taken place! (I thought rooting was as great as it'd get).
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] :
I believe so yes, the kernel and dt.img from

the image as well as some portions of the ramdisk configuration

may be helpful, or not. :silly:

i just recieved the sm-t330nu i was waiting on

so now i can see and test so, hopefully things

will keep moving foward. :good:

I reflashed the recovery with odin but still have the date time issues :( What the problem is - is the time zone does not work and the backups auto pre-generate the backup name with 01-01-2014 and some other letters. I thought the backup would auto generate with the current date. No problem because I can do manual backup name entry. My time is correct on the rom. Actually the date is 01-02-2014 now.

I have now flash the T365 Recovery over the "DD" Methode in the Terminal Emulator.

Now if i want in the Recovery comes:

Recovery booting.....
Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing

and there it is stuck.

In the Attachment you can found my /cache/Recovery/ but it look like there is no new entry from the new Recovery.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] devynbf:
Does this work on T337T?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] Darkman:
But if the Bootloader is locked.... the CF Auto Root works. Works CF Auto Root with locked Bootloaders? I do not know it.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] gr8nole:
Maybe not locked, looks like a common problem but I haven't had a chance to research it yet.

Date is 01-01-2014

What do you have change in Test2?

How can i make a Screenshoot in the Recovery?

Thank you! Donate is on the way! It is a gift in appreciation of your work! :good:

Now i can work on a ROM for the Tab Active :laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] gr8nole:
Excellent!!

I just had to change the init binary.

There are a few adb scripts that can take a screenshot in recovery. If you look in my signature, I have ADB-Assistant that can do it.

I can fix the color, but I won't be able to do it until I get back from a week long trip (leaving in a couple hours).

Thank you very much for the donation. It is much appreciated!!!

hi, quick question, was it settled if the 365's bootloader was locked?

if so , then the init binary swap should work for carrier variants like

the 337a ?

thanks,

SM-T337A

Thanks gr8nole for your Herculean efforts!

Am I totally screwed by the fact that I have the AT&T version? Will there ever be a custom recovery or custom ROMs for this device?

Another question... total noob question too. I wanted to have corporate email on my Tab. Our security procedures required encryption on the device. During the process of encrypting something borked. I got boot looped. Got into safe mode ok. Went into recovery and did a factory wipe. Now it isn't encrypted, and boots, but certain features don't work. For example, the screen never timesout. I can't lock the screen by pressing the power button. God knows what else. So the question:

How to flash back to Stock?

I have flashed many custom roms in the past on other Samsung devices (Infuse, S3) as well as my Nook. I can't seem to find the Stock Rom.

Sorry for wasting your time here guys!
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] wire55:
This is probably a very stupid question but, does flashing this trip knox? It's not a big deal if it does, i am just curious.

TWRP hangs when I try to clear the Cache and Dalvik..
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] rsktkr1:
If you use Chanfire SU it does not - also use Wanam Xposed with Security Hacks. I get Software OTA and I'm fully rooted with TWRP recovery. I can also update firmware with Kies and it thinks everything is normal - KNOX not tripped.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] wire55:
What security hacks do i use?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] rsktkr1:
If you have Xposed Framework installed download the Wanam Xposed module and there is a security hacks section within that section is a option for "Fake System Status" and also "Disable Knox Notifications" it is my understanding these are only for OTA software update. You really don't need to check Disable Knox notifications because Chainfire's SU does not trip KNOX.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] wire55:
Ok, I checked the FakeSystem Status and the did a reboot and it now says my device is official in the settings before it said custom. So now I can install twrp without tripping KNOX?

Yes, you should be able to flash twrp with odin - go into SU and make sure you are on the latest version. It may ask you to let it do a update. After you make sure you have the latest CHAINFIRE SU and have updated you should be ready to flash twrp. I have the same as you SMT330NU.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] rsktkr1:
This version is that color. Did you fix Knox?

Knox is permanently set but I talked to Samsung and they said they would reset it free of charge as long as I send them the device.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] JustZaphod:
Not yet, at this rate a developer will come out with one soon, but don't hold your breath, there is no ETA..

So far all we have gotten is just ports, not an official.. Although ports are just as good...

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ----------

I flashed the Stock Recovery back to my T330NU and it's giving me the same error.. It can't mount cache..

I find this oddly peculiar... I did flashed a different stock rom, I believe the T330NUUEU1ANK1, I was experimenting with some Xposed Modules and ended up in a bootloop, so I wanted to try out the only Stock Rom that was rated for this device. The Device actually came with T330NUUEU1AND4.. I remember not having a Cache mounting issue until I flashed T330NUUEU1ANK1 which does work fine for my device but it's from the wrong region, likely Canada since its in english and flashed right over the existing rom and inporting all the settings.. When I go to update it says there is an update available, from what I have read is that its for the US version, the proper version for the T330NUUEU1AND4 Stock Rom. I believe there is a slight difference in Recoveries perhaps, enough to cause a Cache mounting issue.

I have tried to pull an update from Kies, but its giving me a lot of grief and I have never really used it before.. it hangs when I try to force an update..

I'm hoping this helps...

I will attach the Stock Recovery for T330NUUEU1AND4, and maybe you can see the difference.. I'd try and do it myself but I'm rather a n00b to this, but I've decided to see how its done.. So I can do it for myself..

The Recovery.img is too big to upload, so I uploaded it to my Dropbox

https://www.dropbox.com/s/189iqrvgolvq8tu/recovery.img?dl=0

Edit: After Flashing the stock rom that I downloaded from Sammobile, in the Stock Recovery now mounting Cache properly, it reads KOT49H. T330XXU1ANDA
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] :
Z,

my Philz build is based on the source [kernel] release from opensource samsung and is not a port.

After reading your post's it's likely you have an issue with your device/firmware.

I as a point of discipline do not upgrade my firmware without inspecting it for bootloader upgrades and the like.

As such when i build my recoveries from the released source, i have no issues.

I'll take a look at the recovery image you've posted as i'm certain gr8nole will.

We may actually need two distinct builds of twrp and cwm per model.

m

my un-changed/modified firmware is KOT49H-T330NUUEU1ANK1
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] JustZaphod:
I think my problem is I flashed a Stock rom from the wrong region not XAR, and the stock Recovery does mount cache.. I know that your Recovery is NOT a port, but I discovered that installed a Stock rom that works, in English, probably the Canadian version which I think is similar that it works and I can't tell the difference, but the recovery image is different enough that the Cache partition would not mount.. I'm trying to find the Stock rom T330NUUEU1AND4, all I have found is upload sites that make me pay, but then don't have the stock rom at all.. which is pissing me off..

I'm a n00b to the inner workings of Recoveries and Bootloaders to which I have no reference to learn anything at this point.. I just know the very basics, enough not to brick my device.. I've been doing this for a long time with out the knowledge of any of this.. I usually play with Nexus devices which is quite easy to work with.. This proposes a challenge for me..

Edit: I was told that the stock rom that I flashed which is the wrong region would work, and since I have never had an issue for this, its pretty new to me.. But I'm looking for the Stock Image that came loaded, its that most of the host sites I have noticed claim to have it, I pay for it and it has zippo..
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] :
Z,

i totally understand, frustration is how i got started, i'm looking at the recovery you posted.

If you have a comp running linux pm me and i'll run you through the drill on breaking down and working your images.

I'm pretty sure you can do the same from windows and cygwin but i use debian/linux.

If you're up for testing give me a bit to post a test on my philz thread, gr8nole is handling twrp.

m
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] JustZaphod:
I have a Ubuntu in a Virtual Machine..

Right now I'm TRYING to download the proper stock image, when that fails when your available we can go step by step..

I'm not much of a Linux guy, but I do miss the old Dos days with the command line so if I had a use for it, I could learn Linux commands pretty easy, its that I had no need, and I guess I'm a tad lazy.. However I'm pretty damn motivated now...
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] MarkusMcNugen:
The ROM is made for the T330NU firmware. I didn't know if there were any differences between the two models /system files so I only listed T330NU, although I figured it was compatible with T330 as well. I can tell you that the ROM doesn't touch recovery or flash any kernels, so it seems strange to me that recovery wouldn't be able to mount cache after installing the rom. I didn't think the ROM could affect the recovery partition.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] JustZaphod:
I thought so as well, but after spending a considerable amount of money for the file hosting sites, a few of them didn't even have the Stock rom, although they advertised that they did.. with great frustration I did download what originally was meant for my Device.. Build T330NUUEU1AND4, and when I finally flashed that VIA Odin, that did the trick.. Everything works fine now, no issues except of course my 64 gig micro sd won't mount, but I use my OTG for that anyway....
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] MarkusMcNugen:
Cache now mounts in TWRP after restoring? Ill download the firmware and extract the system partition and check for differences.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] JustZaphod:
With the T330NUUEU1AND4 Stock ROM it should. It was the ROM that came with my Tablet, I couldn't find this ROM at first and flashed another that was from a different region, Canada I believe.. I finally after looking and looking I did find the correct ROM and everything worked as it should..

http://xdaforums.com/tab-4/general/...8-0-t330nu-t2993685/post57959380#post57959380

If you have a Galaxy Tab 4. 8.0 T330NU this Stock ROM will work..
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] MarkusMcNugen:
Yeah. If it was my ROM, Stocked. It is indeed a Canadian tablet. Got a great deal for it and had it imported. If I find any differences between the U.S. version and mine, I'll make another zip or integrate it into the ROM so its compatible.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] JustZaphod:
Thats why I have been hesitant in installing your rom..

I had a hell of a time finding the correct rom, even on Sammobile, their pay hosting sites even after paying for the quote on quote "Premium" version, the downloads took FOREVER, and they timed out.. Others sites advertised for it and didn't even have it, and I had to get their "Premium" service to find out.. I found it strange that the file size would change everytime I hit F5. The final place I tried it took 7 hours to finish after paying 15 dollars for 2 days service.. That seriously pissed me off. To prevent the next guy from going through that, I posted the ROM in General... I didn't understand why I could not mount Cache with the Canadian version with the TWRP Port and Clockwork Mod Recovery... Once I flashed the US version, all was ok..
[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] devynbf:
I give respect as I get it, I didn't get very good manners to start with either so that's the result. Was that not expected?

[Galaxy Tab 4 Android Development] devynbf:
A more "composed" reply from him to start with would've been "check above post". Instead of insulting me like he did, I'm the jerk for asking a question. As I stated before, respect as its given. On his side, was NOT given to start with. Good first impressions as well, a user must throw insults to get a point across? I guess? I'm not exactly sure.

I offered to test it, coming from someone who has the device rather than doesn't, I feel that is of some help, don't you think?

I wasn't the one who started a conversation as a jerk. I merely asked a question and he decided to go about insulting me, and I'M the jerk.
