Now, some education for you since you're learning:

1> Rooting has nothing to do with custom ROMs. You don't need to be rooted, you just need a custom recovery method. You can flash any ROM onto any device without being rooted.

2> Rooting is a a method to get Linux/Unix "root" account access to the operating system. Android is a version of Linux. You have to be booted into Linux to use the root user account. Thus, if you're flashing via CWM, TWRP, ADP, FastBoot, etc - you don't need root because you didn't boot into the Android operating system. If you're a Windows user, this is the same thing as having your Administrator account in Windows password protected but someone yanks the hard disk from your computer and hooks it up to another. They can access any file because they didn't boot from the version of Windows that has your administrator account.

3> Wiping the system erases the entire OS - thus bye bye Android. If you wipe it, Linux and Android are no longer there, there's not a possibility of extra files still hanging around. (Not there at least) or missing files because they are all gone. The Android OS gets put back in there from what you put in the system directory of your .ZIP file/custom ROM.

I know all of this, but the purpose of this rom was to be rooted and deodexed with init d support. which it is

the method I posted in 1st op works for me and others in this thread. if you started on 5.1.1 stock. IDK how you gained root with cf-root since the only one available I know of is for 4.4.2 and doesn't work on 5.1.1 this is how root access was gained on 5.1.1 stock http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-pro...test-root-kernel-t900-touchwiz-5-1-1-t3199349

Moot.

How do we go about fixing the problem? Is there something I could do to be helpful? Are there logs anywhere that would be of use (probably wiped away already if so unfortunately.) Should I try the hacker keyboard option to see if it makes a difference? Should I not install any of the optional programs to see if it makes a difference? Should I just wait for you to post a new version?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] andrewnelson23:
Toolhas4degrees, you don't have to have root in order to flash this. All you really need is twrp. Usually i dont even install su on my stock rom because i like to twrp right up to cm. Since he has twrp, and he's having boot problems, I'm guessing his problem is one of the options in the aroma installer (idk if that's actually the problem the posts are tl;dr).

Bcurran try not selecting anything when you install.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] toolhas4degrees:
I know you don't need root man. I think his problem is he didn't update to the stock 5.1.1 firmware with odin. hence he is still 4.4.2 and his firmware is not up to date. so this rom based on stock 5.1.1 won't boot. I tried telling him this since he kept mentioning cf-root in his posts which isn't even available yet for stock 5.1.1 and he says he is a guru and is talking down to me bc I asked him to read the 1st post and follow the instructions. I had the guy on g+ follow them that mentioned this rom to him and all was booting for him. I tested the kb options in the currently uploaded rom. so if he still has a problem. I believe it would be the firmware.

btw I was just saying that this rom had su becuase of the kernel thread(5.1.1) posted not cf-root(4.4.2). was not saying you needed root to flash a rom

only thing i am having issues with is after restoring with titanium backup. android optimization @ boot locks up. I'm guessing it is a data format problem with the back-up but haven't looked at it thoroughly yet

i remember having to delete app data from sdcard/ext sd card before rom install i think to fix this issue and only restore app no data. will report back later
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] Tquarter:
Thanks!

Toolhas4degrees, I had no trouble at all flashing and using your rom. I appreciate all the work you did acquiring root on the new TW lollipop rom, and making it even easier by providing a rom that packages it all up beautifully. THANK YOU!

[MENTION=2725072]pdaddy[/MENTION]

for all users with optimizing apps on boot hang up.

this is what you need to do to fix it.

-take ext sd card out.

-put in pc.

-copy contents to pc.

-format sd card to same fat ext (go to sdcard manufacturers site for format tool)(sandisk)http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/14827/session/L3RpbWUvMTQ0NDE0OTMwNy9zaWQvcVpVZlZneW0=

-put back in tablet

-connect tablet to pc

-copy all your stuff back to ext sd card minus Android /.android secure /Lost.dir folders

this is caused from data corruption on ext sd from the update to 5.1.1 from 4.4.2

*if in current hang up, pull the ext sd card and hold power button, system will start*
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] bcurran3:
As mentioned twice before., I started with stock OTA 5.1..1 ROM and it failed at boot after flashing TOOLROM. I flashed a 2nd time (maybe even a third - after doing anything twice I don't keep track.) and it still failed. Then I flashed back to stock 4.2.2. and tried flashing TOOLROM as well, at least twice. This is all recorded above and I don't understand why I make the effort to report the process if the report itself is ignored. Also, AFAIK, if I had Android 1.6 on there it wouldn't matter when the system area got wiped (though of course the partition size would be too small to flash a modern ROM.)

I'll try it again sometime over the course of the next few days and see what happens. The unofficial CM 12.1 I'm running is OK except for when I play games the screen flashes and it reboots. (Mental note, need to go report that in the other guy's forum area!)
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] toolhas4degrees:
do you know what a firmware partition is?

The problem is on your end not mine, so since you know all fix the problem on your end. confirmed booting and working on several devices. so your report is null and void. have a nice day.;)

like i said before use odin to flash the stock 5.1.1 rom from sammobile, you could even have a bad ota when you went to 5.1.1 screen flicker.... sounds like your firmware isn't correct

I installed the 9/27 ToolRom last week and it works great, loving it!!! Thank you very much.

Last night I did a TWRP backup first and performed a dirty flash with your 10/5 version without a wipe, as I prefer not to reinstall apps and rearrange app icons on the front page. I end up with a boot looping.... Therefore, I restored the backup.

Is a dirty flash without a wipe on caches, system etc. not allowed? Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] nickster1:
Can you post a screenshot of what firmware you're on just so everybody can rule that out as the issue?

The rom booted just fine for me & has been working great since.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] bcurran3:
SIDE NOTE: The only thing I can think of as to my ORIGINAL problem is that the my OTA 5.1.1 and the posted 5.1.1 on SamMobile under "Cellular south" are different. Maybe I have a non-US variant? I had 5.1.1 OTA installed. Then flashed 4.4.2 from SamMobile, then flashed the Canadian release instead of the "Cellular south." (Why the hell is it called "Cellular south" instead of "US" or "United States?" There's no cellular modem in this tablet!) This time I reflashed with the "Cellular south" image. So it looks like even if you are on the OTA 5.1.1 it is wise to reflash the "Cellular south" 5.1.1 version. (OP#1? :->)

Tquarter and anyone else with a happy working ROM - please see my post above. Is TOOLROM supposed to look stock and have TouchWiz? Do you have the same info as my post screenshot?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] Adso3000:
Yes, that's exactly what it looks like. Great job getting him to rage quit. Now we're screwed. It clearly says in the thread that it is just stock witt some tweaks and a different kernel and such. You write a lot of stuff yet don't take the time to fully read every post by the developer. :eek:

Go back to CM if you're unhappy with TouchWiz.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Android Development] toolhas4degrees:
It's more the point that no one read what I posted, then go @ me like I ****ed everything up and telling me I need to fix my crap when I have a fully booting tablet running great in my hand that has a higher benchmark than the rom they are using. then have the nerve to ask if this rom is touchwiz when they say they have been in the dev field since the 80's with little or no knowledge, nor ability to read the first post which said it was based on stock 5.1.1 rom. If you have a samsung device you know the stock rom contains TW. I would block people, but I have never had to do it/know how in the forum. all I know how to do is report people. thanks for your words, but I think I will take a little break for awhile. If you need any thing/help etc. don't be hesitant to pm me.

this is good too try it

the csc should be what firmware you are on, I added multi-csc to see if others firmware would play nicely... so if you are on us firmware you would select us csc. I was more or less seeing if someone with non us/uk firmware would test

US and Canada have new firmware updates, didn't notice them. dirka durr, will try building a new rom based on latest us firmware to see if it solves the android is updating hangup in the next day or so. I have been trying to fix it and all i have seen around the forums is it was bad 5.1.1 updates from google / and or apps being installed on ext sd. hence why samsung probably pushed these new updates

will report back after building/testing

-new updates fix android updating hang up

I followed the instruction and flashed the latest version firmware T900UEUBOJ1_T900XARBOJ1_XAR (bell south) but got the black screen like some of us had mentioned before. I then download another version T900UEUBOI2_T900XARBOI2_XAR (bell south) and flashed again, however I got the boot loop with that copy. I noticed it was not a clean flash (not factory reset) so I went into twrp and performed a factory reset. It booted without any issue after that.
