I observe that TWRP 2.8.6.1 included in the all in one TWRP and ROOT for T805 always freezes when it opens into recovery in my t805 tablet? Why is this so?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
I'd install again. No one else has reported this problem.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] dapat:
Or the problem could be my unit? My tab t805 usually freezes upon unlocking the screen. I dont know why it freezes when I unlock the screen.

Back to TWRP, DUHAsianSKILLS suggests I use TWRP 2.8.6.0. Which one is good for t805?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Seems like a hardware problem to me if you're having issues with both.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] here is johnny:
I just can't to get it to work tried several recoveries but none work when i try to flash them through odin.. It keeps staying at stock recovery.. What am i doing wrong?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
I take it you are on lollipop? The recovery is being automatically replaced when booting.

Next time you flash uncheck auto reboot in Odin.

When the flash completes manually restart the device with POWER + VOL DOWN + HOME. As soon as it restarts change to VOL UP while still holding the other buttons until Twrp boots.

Twrp will then patch it so that it can't be replaced by stock recovery.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] here is johnny:
Thanks, finally got in TWRP recovery!

Sorry to anyone that downloaded the T800 version and had problems getting root. It seems somehow the SuperSu script got corrupted and wasn't running. Now fixed. :o

AWESOME!,

Hi thank you, it work well on my SM-T705 Tab S LTE model. TWRP working fine. Detects the external SD and USB OTG.

So 1st thing I'm doing is create a Nand backup of the rom.

Thanks alot.:good:

issue on SM-T805

After flashing cf-autoroot-twrp-t805 via Odin 3.10.6, in Android i see SuperSU installed ( have not tested ).

I rebooted into TWRP 2.8.6.2 to make aa backup.

Selected backup to external microSD, named the backup <defaultgeneratedname>-boot-system-data

Selected compression.

Started backup.

TWRP power saver kicked in, screen goes blank.

Tap to bring up the TWRP lockscreen.

Monitored the progress percentage increase - DID NOT SWIPE TO UNLOCK.

After around 5 seconds, BAM! TWRP lockscreen stops responding. Percentage froze, unable to swipe to unlock - the TWRP lockscreen is visible all the while.

Press and hold power button does respond either.

Methinks I have to let it run out of juice to get back into recovery/download mode or boot Android. :laugh: Stupid unremovable battery. :p

ROM is freshly flashed XME-T805XXU1BOD2-20150427093820 if it helps isolate the problem.

is Your a non system-root? can't get with ES, can't work on init.d..

downloaded and installed your CF-Auto-Root-klimtwifi-klimtwifizc-smt700.tar all seemed to be ok, but working around tablet I saw ES manager (Pro) when I try to turn on root options tells tablet root is not present.

I tried to work on init.d but the init.t Toggler tells tablet is NOT rooted (root manager says tablet is rooted but mine is a -not system-root-, is this something like a lite-rooting?.

SuperSU (Pro) got full functionality, BusyBox (Pro) shows tablet is rooted, on SDmaid I can cancel system files. Root checker tells tablet is rooted, and it is, but PPP widget won't install (it installs only on rooted tablet :o((((((((((( ), so I think rooting was with a medium rights (permissions) level.

if it exists different grades of rooting for sm-t700, how I can obtain the highest one?

my tablet is bought in 2015 have no guarantee to save, I changed battery by myself..

please help, how can I change permission level of root? if I have to re-root with onether img I'll loose my app and preferences?

many thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
This is quite an outdated root.

I suggest installing the latest Supersu with TWRP.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] fluffy__:
Hi! Could you help me out please? I'm trying to flash "cf-autoroot-twrp-t705" on my device (t705 obv) with Odin, but every single time it succeeds, after the rooting process (i believe so at least, its when the red android shows up), the device goes blank without any indicator that something is happening. I have to go into download mode again, and re-flash the original firmware for it to boot. Any idea what could I be doing wrong? Tried the non-auto reboot method too (when after the odin installation, i manually reboot - it goes into the red android screen again, should that be happening? i thought it should boot into recovery..)

Thanks a lot in advance!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] nutley:
If i remember correctly the first reboot needs to be into recovery mode for TWRP to stick.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] vgyfytfhgf:
Hey guys, I'm having trouble rooting my SG Tab S. My device is a t800 and I downloaded the correct link cf-autoroot-twrp-t800 and Odin. I connected my tablet to my computer via usb, put the tablet in download mode and opened Odin and hit the 'ap' button and opened the cf-autoroot-twrp-t800 file. Odin goes through the process fine and my tablet displays the red android image and the small white text displays everything fine, it says completed or whatever then rebooting in 10 seconds, at that point it just shows the samsung letters in white with a black screen endlessly :confused:

It's now displaying the 'Team win recovery project' with options to 'Install' 'Backup' 'Restore' 'Wipe' and other options, I'm out of my element, please help!

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
This method is now well outdated.

Look in the development section for TWRP and follow the instructions to install TWRP and root or go to the official Twrp website and download the latest version then flash SuperSU or Magisk.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] :
it would save a lot of people alot of time if you would PUT THIS STATEMENT IN THE FIRST POST !!! i cannot fcuking boot after flashing this sh1t ...
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Maybe if you had actually read the OP.

It clearly states in the OP for Kitkat and lollipop only.

The method is still valid if you are using these android versions.

Would it have been so difficult to have read the last few posts of the thread to see where the thread had progressed?

You can clearly see it's 4 years old. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] :
Yes I can read it now from top to the bottom, because I have now a lot of time --- while waiting to finish download of Stock firmware from sammobile and then flashing it.

note to all : DO NOT USE THIS OUTDATED METHOD, OR ELSE SOFTBRICK
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] cobalt100b:
Here's the way I have rooted my Galaxy Tab SM-T700 safely with Magisk (should work the same way with SM-T705/800/805, but you need the corresponding TWRP and Magisk Files for your respective device,

files under the following links are only for SM-T700

!):

1.) install TWRP

In case you don't know how, here's a Tutorial (haven't checked it, as TWRP was already installed on my device, but the other Mini-Tutorial on the same block on how to root the device "after" TWRP is installed worked well).

https://www.shizhub.com/2019/01/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-323-0-on_76.html

You can find many other tutorials, as the procedure to install TWRP on any Samsung Device should be quite similar if not identical.

2) with TWRP install Magisk and after that the Magisk Manager App - Follow this easy instruction on the same Blog:

https://www.shizhub.com/2019/01/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-tab-s-84-wi.html

In short, you simply need to install the Magisk Zip under TWRP, reboot, then install the Magisk Manager App and update Magisk within this App. Reboot again and the Device is rooted. The files linked in the instruction are a bit outdated. But once you start the Magisk Manager App it offers to update the App and also Magisk.

With Magisk there's no need to use SuperSU.

I don't know how easy or difficult it is to install TWRP in the first place. As I mentioned it was already installed on my device by someone else. But the latter Part (install Magisk and the Magisk Manager App) is in fact so easy as it appears in the instructions in the link above
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] NeonHD:
God damn it, wish I read this sooner. Flashed it immediately and didn't know that it was outdated. The OP should've labeled this outdated in the title and in the first post with a big bolded font.

Anyways no fret, I already got TWRP installed via odin so I'm pretty much good to go with whatever I seek to flash. Man this tablet is so easy to mod with Odin! Thought it required a bootloader unlock via fastboot.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] liddokun10:
Didn't work. Waited for battery to run out.

Once out of juice, rebooted into download mode.

Used Odin to flash in twrp-2.8.6.0-chagallwifi.tar from developer's site.

Booted into TWRP recovery, chose all those options from my previous post to make compressed backup of boot, system, data partitions.

Observed TWRP auto screen off.

Tapped to bring it up.

Did not swipe to unlock. Watched the progress.

Watched it auto screen off, and tapeped on again.

No hangs. Able to swipe to unlock.

Now backup finished.

I believe there is a problem with the TWRP 2.8.6.2 in your package. Perhaps replace with 2.8.6.0 for SM-T805?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] L0kiii:
Works perfect on my T800!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
I'll guarantee now that you either did not hold the buttons down long enough or you used the wrong button combo.

This is a hard reset and will work no matter what state the device is in. It is effectively a battery pull. I have done it countless times.

Also the twrp posted IS for the t805 AND built from 2.8.6.0 source code.

There has been hundreds of people who have downloaded it and have not reported the same problem and if there is a problem, its a twrp bug or maybe your sd card.

I myself have a t805 and have created many, many backups, no problem. See the pic here backup created perfectly.

Did you actually try it again or just the once and then gave up?

If anybody else posts the issue, then I may look at it, but tbh I don't think there is and suggest you stick with whatever works for you.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] liddokun10:
Just saying compressed selective backup of /boot /system /data to microSD did not work for me on your 2.8.6.2 build

Like I indicated, I encountered a HARD HANG on the TWRP lockscreen. Buttons did not respond.

I think forumer dapat also reported similar lockscreen issue in 2nd page of this thread but it was for your older package with 2.8.6.1 build

Either way, chill. Thanks for your effort!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Dapat had a hardware issue with his tablet, nothing to do with twrp.

I don't need to chill, you reported an issue that wasn't really an issue.

Just because it happens once it doesn't mean it will happen again. Fair enough if the issue repeats then there is cause for reporting it. However it seems you encountered the issue then simply reported it without even attempting to see if it worked the next time.

Any software can crash from time to time for whatever reason.

Kernel bug, software bug hardware issue etc .

I have had issues with official builds myself on a number of occasions.

Simply reboot and try again.

If the issue repeats report it.

Twrp itself still has bugs that need to be addressed. That's why new builds get released.

It's not up to me to fix the source code.

I'm quite happy to address issues I may have Introduced, but please at least follow protocol if you encounter a problem. Ensure its repeatable and others have had the issue and its not just related to your device. Post proper logs and describe under what circumstances it happens.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] liddokun10:
I gave you the exact firmware version. I gave you detailed steps to reproduce the issue. So-called "proper protocol" has been followed.

Reboot? Not so simple. Hard hang.

Logs? Good luck trying to find hard hang logs in /cache/recovery/last_log ;)

'Nuff said.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
You didn't say you were able to repeat the issue.

I cannot reproduce the issue myself as already confirmed.

No one else has reported the issue.

No logs.

So what would you have me do? :confused:

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
It's normal, it still wipes, after it wipes twrp tries to remount data/media/0 (internal storage) but it's not there because you've just wiped it which is what the error refers to.

If you reboot the folder will be recreated by Android and everything will be as normal.

If you reboot to recovery straight after and wipe again you won't get that error because Twrp will mount internal storage to data/media.

You can safely ignore it.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] blood_talon:
Thanks for the pointer but that's not the problem I am facing. I just dont get any popup prompting root access. I dont have Lux installed anyway.

Hi everyone I just would like to say thanks for the download. My tab is running the recovery with out a problem. I did run into a problem while trying to install the DETOX ROM. With this version of TWRP I could not mount my SD card. Everytime I tried to do it just would not take. I had to use a usb otg card to install. After the install my SD card works fine in the unit. I just cannot mount it in TWRP. Anyone else notice this?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Which device, it should be working fine? Works fine here. I take it you selected 'micro sd' by selecting the option at the top under where it says 'select zip to install'?

Can you access it with twrp file manager?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Bigdog1:
my device is the T-700. I am talking about while in TWRP I am not able to mount the SD card therefore I cannot install a ROM from the SD card. I can mount my USB OTG but not an SD card. Again this is while in TWRP Recovery.

---------- Post added at 02:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 AM ----------

Just checked and while in recovery under file manager I also have no access to my SD card. If I choose external SD card no files shows up. when tablet is booted in OS I have no problem with SD card.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Is the mount option for 'Micro SD' checked?

Do you see any folders in the left pane in TWRP file manager.

What format is your SD card, FAT or Ex-FAT?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] blood_talon:
OK, I was using root checker. See attached screenshot. Root validator just goes into endless loop. :(
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
I need the output of root validator or the output of the pro version of root checker.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Bigdog1:
That is where the promlem is at. The option is there but it cannot be selected. Just below that is the USB-OTG and that can be selected with the blue "X" but not the SD card above it. My card is a 64Gb with exfat. Card works fine outside of TWRP, when tab is booted into LL all is well but cannot be used in TWRP because it cannot be selected. I have my LG-G3 with TWRP and on that I can select the SDCARD option.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Apparently according to what I can gather some 64gb sd cards formatted in exfat can have a problem.

Have you tried this card in your LG?

I think some have solved it by formatting to fat or reformatting to ex fat.

My 64gb Samsung card formatted to fat works fine.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Bigdog1:
Good people thank you for all the responses. However I do not have a card issue. My card works fine in all my devices. I have 2 Galaxy S tabs, a Note 4 on ATT and 2 LG-G3s, (my son uses one) and the card works in ALL of them. Even now the card is working fine in my new Galaxy S 8.4.

I asked the question because I think there is a problem with this version of TWRP. I had rooted the tablet before but was still running stock because of not finding a suitable ROM to go with on KK. I now looked into using DETOX 3 new ROM and it asked me to use this specific version of TWRP before install. I followed all the instructions and got the ROM working but noticed that after copying the ROM file to my SD card prior to flashing I was not able to access the file from the SD card via TWRP. I had to copy the file to an USB-OTG card to flash. I mounted the usb-otg and flashed away. But inside this new version of TWRP you cannot mount any SD card because TWRP does not allow it in this version.

Can the DEV who created this cf-root all-in-one please look into the matter for me. I have deleted the recovery program, wiped everything, reinstalled everything about 3 or 4 times and the same thing happens.

Again it is not a CARD problem.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
Ok I have looked into the issue and have managed to fix the problem.

Twrp will now recognize an exfat micro sd card.

I still have a couple of tweaks to do, but will upload it soon.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Bigdog1:
I want to thank you very much for looking into the matter. I am happy that the matter will now be resolved. I eagerly await you upload.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
You have a PM.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] blood_talon:
Here you go. Let me know if that's useful or if you need something else.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ashyx:
According to that you have root. What happens when you run an app that requires super user permissions?
