Hi sorry to take so long to reply, to answer your question, if you're not overly concerned about the warranty just go ahead and root with TWRP. It will trip KNOX, but Samsung will still honor your warranty, if worst comes to worst, just tell them Kies screwed up your tablet (actually worked for me lol, I was stupid and tried messing with some of the lower level partitions).

BlissPop is the best rom for this tablet in my opinion, and it is an undeniable fact that it is the most supported and most regularly updated of all the roms available. Unfortunately I can say with strong confidence there will not be any Android M roms for this device before sometime in 2016, if ever, which I view as unlikely.

TLDR don't worry about KNOX, go ahead and root with TWRP, and BlissPop is the best rom. I also completely agree with you on the crappiness of the stock rom and the awful amount of bloatware

My tablet is stuck in a bootloop how can i fix it

Hi, my Samsung tab 4 8.0 inch is stuck in a boot loop I did everything as it said but unfortunately it didn't work. My tablet is version 5.1.1 and I have tried wiping the cache and factory resetting my device with twrp but it didn't work. is there anything I can do to fix this.

You can't use this method to root 5.1.1, only 5.0.2, which wasn't released for the 8.0. If you have the SM-T330NU you can use moonbutt74's modified kernel to root, otherwise there is no root method yet

Stuck on Samsung Logo animation screen. :(

In TWRP, I tapped on the lower-right button, the one that says "Normal Reboot". I see the Samsung logo animation. Is this supposed to take a long time? I thought the part that may take a long time is after this Samsung animation, when it's time to install SuperSU, no?

What do I do now?

Am I having this problem because I tried flashing the wrong tar file at first? :(

UPDATE: I'm flashing the official 5.1.1 firmware for my Tab. Hope that will help.

Update 2: After flashing official 5.1.1 firmware, my Tab is still stuck on the Samsung Logo animation. :( what do I do now?

Here's what I did.

Use ODIN to flash official 5.1.1 firmware

After Tab reboots normally, I power it off.

I then put it into download mode (Volume_Down, Home, Power)

Use Odin to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.7.0-SM-T3XX-150728_millet_wifi_3g_lte.tar.

I mistakenly do the VolumeDOWN, Home,Power combo (instructions say it should be VolumeUp), and tablet goes through normal rebot

After I get onto regular home screen, I power off tab

I then get to the TWRP and install supersu zip.

I tap the Reboot square in TWRP.

Tab reboots and get stuck in Samsung Logo animation.

Hi,sorry for bugging, been away from samsung for a long time...I'm looking to root sm-t335 version ( 8.0 lte ver) , and it doesn't seem to work in Odin. I get a "pass" confirmation in Odin, but everything stays the same. Tried with 3.09 and 3.10 version, drivers installed , USB debug checked etc... I get to the point of powering off the device , and pressing vol+,home and pwr results in message screen saying:cannot boot normaly, odin mode etc.

As far as I understood I have to flash Philz, and the link points to Philz thread in which me closest version is

SM-T330/NU/31 Philz 6.58.9

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=23544

Is that the wrong one ? Can I flash TWRP ?

You need to use Philz, not TWRP, not sure which will work best for the SM-T335. But I can say for sure root won't work until you also utilize moonbutt74's permissive kernel, linked to below. It needs to be flashed in Philz right before the supersu zip

I think it's just up to recovery file, as it states briefly "booting to recovery" , and then back to Odin screen. Only after I boot fully , I can boot into stock recovery again.

Oh well, will have to do a looot of ctrl-f to find exact one needed :)

I have a tab 4 8.0 sm-t330 (android 4.4.2 kernel 3.4.0-2415958) and followed the instructions (making sure to use the 8.0 version of the twrp when using odin) and the odin goes ok (says recovery, then restart, then pass in nice green) but then when I hold power to shutdown then the three buttons to go into recovery, it says recovery booting, set recovery : warranty and then just goes black, no recovery twrp screen at all??? After a wait while screen is blank, it then just reboots on its own to normal title screen. This is a brand new tablet, nothing has been put on it that might interfere with this.

Just not sure why it will not go into twrp so that I can do the supesu file?

Sorry to bother you again. Since I couldn't update after rooting, could I uninstall supersu temporarily by this way?

Could I install other version of supersu? If I upgrade to android 5.11 or 6.0, which version of supersu would be safe for the MS-T530NU?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
You could always update by downloading one of the following files and installing with Odin (AP button):

--SM-T530NU UEU1BOI2 XAR Region (USA)

--SM-T530NU UEU1BOI2 XAC Region (Canada)

--Nook Edition SM-T530NU OVU1BOJ2 BNN Region (Nook Edition)

That shouldn't erase your files, just your settings. People tend to have trouble when trying to uninstall supersu for the purpose of updating. Once updated you can follow the exact same root method. There is only official 4.4.2 and 5.0.2 (the ones linked above are all 5.0.2); although there are Cyanogenmod 12.1 (5.1.1) and Cyanogenmod 13 (6.0.1) ROMs for the SM-T530NU
