T,

okay i need to update you,

My recovery is now apparently broken.

When i make a backup recovery says "Yes it is written" XD

BUT when i check /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups/, my "recoveries appear to be zero length inaccessible placeholders.

Is this occuring with TWRP ?

m

Okay, more dumb-dumbery

So when i ls for directory contents, the backup is clearly there

root@matissewifiue:/ # ls /storage/sdcard0/clockworkmod/backup/lolo/

boot.img

cache.ext4.tar.gz

cache.ext4.tar.gz.a

data.ext4.tar.gz

data.ext4.tar.gz.a

nandroid.md5

recovery.img

recovery.log

system.ext4.tar.gz

system.ext4.tar.gz.a

root@matissewifiue:/ #

Sizes are correct so recovery's not broken...?

Platform.xml maybe ? storage reading and etc.

Definitely Lolli-wiz !!!

That's really catchy. =)

Okay this rom definitely has an attitude with read permissions on sdcard, can't tell if it's in house

Or conflicting/wrong extended attributes being applied by selinux on backups?

Now this is the neat bit selinux denials are supposed to transcend/override modifications made by superuser,

Meaning you can chmod anything to rw but if it's not covered by selinux you won't get anywhere.

My file managers can't access the backup directories but i can get to them in terminal. I haven't run a live

logcat yet to find out because i'm working on a kernel build of the LL release for the 530/nu

But if it turns out to be the case that would be interesting. I've tried tinkering with platform.xml and no go.

So recovery isn't broken , just can't access the backups while in-rom.

Pushing the deodexed folders through recovery zip failed many times just at the samsung logo after booting and nothing happens. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I'm making a deodex ed rom/base for the T530. Once I figure out how to use the tool :)
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] Geoz:
The tool is easy to use but I was trying to push the deodex ed folder to the device and that's where everything seem stuck. I don't know if its because of ART, Kitkat was smooth that is what I have heard. I was thinking of Lollipop rom/base for the T530 but then you may need kernel which supports the device deodexed to get it booting if I'm not mistaken.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] elec.ramo:
Hello,

Will sm-t531 get lollipop update ? ( Tab 4 10.1 3g )
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Ok. I made a base and I'm pretty sure it will work. If anyone with the T530 has odined LP firmware from Samsung already(lollipop bootloader installed) , can you test this https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952611504

It's odexed since I didn't have time to deodex and is also Unmodified. Simply just make a backup, wipe system and factory reset then flash in twrp/cwm. Then flash latest supersu beta to get working root. I'm hoping bootanimation works this time. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] Droidphilev:
Are you still planning a deodexed (Xposed) and debloated version? ;)
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] Geoz:
Nice job since the stock is odex I'm pretty sure its going to work but how to get around it to be deodex/ed and working that will be the challenge

Hmm I'm not sure why WiFi won't work. I did the same exact thing I did for my tab s. I haven't looked at deodexing since I knew there were some sort of problem to it.

I just got started themeing the files moonbutt sent me, hopefully that doesn't cause any problems.

[Galaxy Tab 4 General] :
Hey guys

i haven't checked out this rom package but if it's for recovery flashing check your updater script to be certain

there is a proper symlinking event for /system/lib/modules/pronto/pronto_wlan.ko > /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko

sometimes the symlink can mess up and copy pronto_wlan.ko as wlan.ko to system/lib/modules instead.

also check the package to make sure there is actually no wlan.ko in /system/lib/modules or the symlink will fail.

m
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] repey6:
In updater-script is this symlink .

In lib/modules/pronto/ is file pronto_wlan.ko . There no wlan.ko in package system/lib .

All right ?

Unable to update, please help

Hello to you all,

I have tried to update my SM-T535, but no luck. It let me update it at first, but then gets stuck at booting or restarts during use. I've tried all regions available, as mine is still missing (Spain). I've performed factory reset before updating. Could somebody help? Many thanks
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
According to a couple similar posts in other threads, I think the solution is to enable the option in Odin called, "Phone Bootloader Update"
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] mrgreyhat:
Thanks man, but it doesn't work. It let me boot for the first time, but then gets stuck while I'm making the first time settings (google account etc.), simply froze while I'm typing something. Then restarts and gets stuck at boot (samsung logo) and no way out of it. Very kind of you to reply so soon. If you have any ideas as to what else could be the solution, it would be appreciated, though it may be best to wait for OTA update for my region. Meanwhile, I will have to revert to the original android. Any idea where to find a faster download for the original firmware for SM-T535 for Spanish region (Orange)?

Kind regards
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Did you perhaps see a thing such as reactivation lock in download mode? I know some lte devices have it.

Nothing of the sort. It just sais as follows,

Help pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hi I just want to know if I install Lollipop 5.0 will I get an update for 5.1?

The reason I’m asking this is few weeks back I installed this on my sm-t535 and the performance was slow compared to KitKat so I downgraded it to KitKat.

I’m happy I was able to fix it by the help of thisisapoorusernamechoice, repey6 and others helped me out, but still I’m in KitKat don’t want to lose my custom rom (TWRP)

Please guide me shall I upgrade to 5.1?

Or just stay in KitKat?

Anyways my counter is tripped Knox to 1 the paid version from chain fire didn’t work for me, any advice to how to reset to 0

I really appreciate your help thanks
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
I sincerely doubt there will ever be an official 5.1 update for any of the tab 4 variants. Samsung clearly doesn't consider these devices high priority, so it won't be for a very long time, if ever. Also I'm pretty sure there's no way to reset the Knox counter, why do you need to reset it, warranty?

Also any chance I could please ask you to remove quote of entire OP? It's unnecessary and clutters the thread

Edit button underneath the post.

As far as the knox counter, I say just leave it be. If worst comes to worst and you need to send it into warranty, you can always tell them Kies broke it. I.e. when I hard bricked my Tab 4 (trying some very unrecommendable things out lol), I just told them I had Kies updating it, fell asleep and when I woke up, hard brick. Got the thing fixed for free thanks to my bending the truth (lie is such a mean word ;))

Rooting problem

Hi,

Rooting did not work. I had the original KK, rooted by Towelroot, with Philz recovery.

I flashed the Spanish 5.02 ROM. Boot and configuration worked w/o problems.

Then I flashed TWRP and tried to boot to recovery. It failed with: "Recovery is not seanandroid enforcing".

I flashed the ROM again, and tried again with Philz, same result.

Please advise.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
"Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" is not part of the problem, that's perfectly normal. Did you immediately shut it off when you saw it or did you actually let it try to boot into recovery?

Also make sure to use the tar file for 2.8.6.0, not 2.8.7.0
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] milsabords:
I kept Vol+; Home and Pwr depressed, it "bootlooped" with this same message.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
2.8.7.0 or 2.8.6.0? And did you disable auto-reboot in Odin?

Edit: You're trying to reboot into recovery directly after flashing the recovery in Odin, correct? No steps in between that?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] milsabords:
2.8.6.0

Powered off right after flashing, Autoreboot disabled in Odin. Then I tried to boot to recovery with the 3 fingers trick. No normal boot in between.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] milsabords:
Rooting problem solved.

Hi, I went through the whole process again with Odin 3.10, and with the latest Samsung USB drivers. It worked !

Thanks for your attention.

I have say that samsung made big dissapointment on me when making 5.0.2 updated took so long tht they decided to make it 5.1.1.... i bet we wont be reciving M update. Well atleast they relased it on good time (i have next week without any plans so i can try out 5.1.1 on my tab 4 7.0 if they relase it)
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
I would be willing to bet this device will not receive an update to M. What nobody apparently understands is that currently M is a mostly-broken developer preview available only for a couple of Nexus devices. Supposedly it is going to be released to flagship devices (Samsung, HTC, Motorola, Sony, etc.) by the end of this year, but I'm skeptical. And you're fooling yourself if you think Samsung considers the Tab 4 a flagship device (it never was in the first place).
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] JustZaphod:
Nice to see some interest in the Galaxy Tabs..

Something told me I should of got a Nexus 9 instead, this device packs a punch and does not get the respect it deserves..

I'm hesitant to upgrade to 5.1.1 due to having issues with Xposed.. Unless someone deodex's this rom, I'm patient I can wait.

Hi, my device is SM-T530 but different build and different region: T530XXU1AOA1 (Brazil). So, wich one I can download?

Wi-Fi SM-T530 XXU1... ... Region (...)?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
DO NOT USE SM-T530NU UEU1BOE5 XAR Region (USA)!!

You can use any of the ones that look like this: Wi-Fi SM-T530 XXU1... ... Region (...), as long as you do a factory reset first. In Odin options, enable Phone Bootloader Update

Thank you! So what I need to do is:

- My device is now rooted;

- Make a factory reset in TWRP?

- Install lollipop firmware using Odin?

[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
You'll have to root using TWRP to install SuperSU after you've installed lollipop, whether or not you're rooted on KitKat.

Hi

I got this Tablet

SM-T530

Version Android 4.4.2

Version Kernel - 3.4.0-3235464

Nº Compilation - KOT49H.T530XXU1AOA1

How i install the 5.1.1 Lolipop in my tablet?

Thanks for your support
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
I'll give you pictures to help too, just give me a minute

Before you start, make a backup of anything on your tablet that you consider important, and download Odin from the first post to your PC. Extract the Odin zip file to your desktop. You also need to download a firmware file to your PC; you can use any of the ones labelled Wi-Fi SM-T530 (but not any of the SM-T530NU ones). Extract the zip file. If you are using a region that is different from your current one, you must perform a factory reset before doing this.

Run Odin by navigating to the folder and double clicking the exe file.

Turn off your tablet and boot it into download mode with this button combination: home, vol-, power. Hit vol+ to continue

Plug your tablet into your PC via USB. Make sure auto-reboot, reset time, and phone bootloader update options are selected. Make sure the re-partition option is NOT selected (see below)

Click the AP button and navigate to and select the firmware file (file extension .tar.md5) you extracted earlier (see below)

Hit start and be patient. The worst thing you could possibly do is to unplug the tablet before it's done

Once done the tablet should automatically reboot, and Odin will say, "PASS!" in the ID:COM section, with a green background. Now it is safe to unplug the tablet and enjoy lollipop.

One nit-picky point, lollipop 5.1.1 has not been released for any of the 10.1 models, these are all 5.0.2, which is still lollipop. Not that big a deal, plus there are custom roms that are 5.1.1

any root possibility of it?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
My facepalm just did a facepalm. As I clearly state in the third post, these are official lollipop firmwares released from Samsung, I add them as soon as they are released. As I have not seen anything released for the SM-T330NU, I cannot add anything for that model. When a lollipop firmware is released for that model, I will gladly add it to the OP. However, unless you can provide me with a link to an update for the SM-T330NU, (and I just checked, I don't see anything) I can't add it here. The KitKat firmware thread is linked to in the OP, if that is what you were looking for instead.

TLDR: It hasn't been released yet, you not-reading-the-FAQ's person, you!

Also please trim down your quote of the OP...
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Try using Odin to flash a TWRP tar file, and then in TWRP install the superSU v2.49 zip
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] jazzespresso:
hmmm....any download link for it?
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
The best I can do is this link for TWRP, use the file named openrecovery-twrp-2.8.7.0-millet_wifi_3g_lte.img (millet = 8.0; matisse = 10.1), you'll have to make a tar file out of that. Supersu 2.49 zip can be downloaded from here.

Oh, I almost forgot, there's an older version of TWRP (2.8.3.0) already in tar file, can be downloaded from this thread
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] efeboAbel:
