Ok I can't post links I'm to new plus I don't know how on here yet I've never tried.

Search twrp 3.1 smt350 on XDA in labs app that should bring up a twrp 3.1 for smt 350 and other models click that and go to opening page 1 the download will be on page one look for smt350 verison download that twrp doesn't require a certain build just make sure it's 3.1. download that on your PC in a folder you can get to with Odin.

You need supersu 2.79 type supersu in the XDA search that's it supersu it will load up 2.79r3 beta that's the post you want search on that thread for the download it should be opening post page one all downloads are page 1 of the thread. Make sure to check the zip I use as file explorer and look through the supersu to make sure I can see folders they say meta and other stuff. On that thread you'll have to really dig cause yesterday I redownloaded it and page one verison said bad zip so search the thread for supersu zip flip through the pages until you see a download link download it on your tablet is what I do not PC for that.

Ghost project is on page one of this thread your build number in about device in your settings pick the ghost project that matches your build number. Download it move it to sdcard the reason sdcard is so if you wipe your system you don't lose it.

Ok did you go into settings about device and click your build number 7 times to unlock developer options then in developer options check allow us debugging.

Go into lock screen in security in settings check allow unknown sources to download from places other then play store. This should be the first thing you did before flashing anything was turn on USB debugging and unknown sources.

Thanks for your time i just flashed the custom rom, waiting for the 1st boot taking sometime but i heard 1st boot always takes a bit long fingers crossed, hope it all goes well thank you so much for taking your time to help me out with this!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Thisguy129:
So you got it rooted with twrp installed nice job man. Yes it took me 15 minutes to boot on ghost project the first time let it boot don't mess with it. Your welcome I'm trying to help people on XDA because not many people do .

Alright man ttyl
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
First off, Thank you {"thisguy"} for helping out.

I am posting this to {"mintos"} or anyone who is having issues flashing my rom.....

My roms are already rooted. I have been extremely busy with Nexus 6 builds and my YouTube channel so I haven't had a chance to check this thread. But to flash my roms, you have to be on the correct firmware first, just like any of the other roms here for this device and you need to use Odin to flash the firmwares. The links for all of this, rom, firmware, TWRP, and any other needed zips are all in the OP.

I'm keep an eye on this thread to see if there are any more issues and I want to thank you all for helping out. That's what XDA was made for, for everyone to help each other out and to not be snobby about it no matter how new someone may be.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Thisguy129:
Man I don't believe​the battery life on this build with the may security patch at first I didn't know what everyone was talking about because I run the super quality driver with viper and the battery life was the same well for the last couple of days I haven't used viper and the battery life is about 10 percent for 2 hours of use which is almost double that's crazy. I'm still on ghost project v3 it's great I'm really impressed with that Xtreme music mod works on it like a charm and on my Moto g4 I've tried 10 different roms can't get it to work at all I don't get it.Again nice job
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Thank you. I like my first build the best. As soon as the kennel I used in my first Tim gets updated to work on the November build, I will try to add that I'm too but to be honest it's all running so good for me on my tablet that I haven't wanted to touch it.

When I started Ghost Project, there were no custom build out for for this device and I though what the heck, Ill read and figure it out. But there are a couple out now and I have tried them and they are good builds but they just don't seem to have the battery life that mine has.

Anyways thanks you for helping out, I really do appreciate it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Thisguy129:
I'm curious what your opinion on updates for security patches I personally don't do it know that I root my device Everytime there's a update the update screws things up for rooted users and it does no good for security either I have never had a virus of course with Android you have to install the app which you know is a virus right away because itll be a app that was supposed to be something else then when you went to install it they show what it really is and it as no icon I have almost installed a couple but I'm very careful seen it was bunk and deleted it . I think your build is fine I'm really impressed with the battery if this tablet had quick charge and a snapdragon 600 or 800 it would be great it's an awesome tablet for 150 bucks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
I totally agree about the security updates. I actually prefer my first release as I think it has the best battery life of any of my builds. There is an april 2017 build that I am downloading now. I'm going to make another build just fit those out there that has to have it though. But unless it's as good or better than what I have now, I'll just stick to my earlier build.

Just thought I would let you know.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Just wanted to post that I finally got a working build of the April update from Samsung for the Galaxy Tab A SM-T350. It was a freaking mess for a while because root fought me the whole way. I couldn't build it with root in the system like the other builds though so the update will be with Chainfire's systemless root Sr3 v2.79.

If {"ashyx"} gets an updated build of his kennel, I will include it into my rom but the kennel build he has out right now will not work on this latest build.... I tried, several times, several ways, but no go....

I want to run this rom for a while to make sure that it is all going to run right with no issues and once I have finished testing it, I will post all the links needed to update to it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Thisguy129:
Hey I never use camera like ever on this tablet I always use my phone but I wanted to make a couple videos with twrp on my phone to show my friends what root is and twrp recovery I live in a small old fashioned town in Michigan no one roots and I am trying to show it's not that hard and the warning is over kill with soft brick I have a Dell venue with locked bootloader that I rooted and it messed up so I factory reset it the Normal way and it fixed everything and still had root so there's no have to have a backup yes if you can but most phones don't have unlock bootloaders say to make a backup is a waste of time you can't. Off topic sorry. Anyway my camera for video seems out of focus it doesn't look right are you able to see twrp clearly on the Samsung through the camera while recording it switches it's look its weird I don't know.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Ok... I have been running the rom for about 2 days. If you want to try it links are in the second post. I still think that my first build has the best battery life so far but I need to give this build some time to settle in before making any judgement calls. I didn't see any new features, just security updates and a few small changes here and there. But for those of you that need to have the latest in security updates it's ready. I had a devil of a time getting it rooted the way I wanted it (hence the massive jump in version number)

Have fun with it and as always, flash at your own risk, I take no responsibility to anything that may happen to your device. But with that said, remember that all devices are not the same. And above all, back up........
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
The camera on this tablet is not the greatest. I don't ever use it. But you can try using a different camera app like Google camera or one of the other good apps out. Samsung has one of the better camera apps out though and you can only do so much with the hardware that comes with these tablet. The only tablet that I own that had a camera that I feel is of his quality is the One on my Huawei Media Pad 8 inch. It actually has an outstanding camera.

The only other thing I know tho tell you is to try and burrow another phone from someone and use the camera on it.

When I follow all the instructions and it reboots after the install, the wifi doesn't work. It keeps sliding off. When I restore to the original firmware, the wifi works agains. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] gunzup3:
Hey guys, been messing with my tab, got twrp installed and all but it wont boot into a system. Just keeps booting into twrp, any ideas? Know where i can find the factory image?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Yes, it is a common issue with TWRP and this tablet. To fix the TWRP bootloop you have to fish TWRP again with Odin. That is the only way to fix it.

Now when you do you need to make one very important change before you flash though and that is to open the options tab in Odin and uncheck "Auto reboot" option.. Then you can Flash the TWRP image file.

Once the flash is complete you will manually need to reboot from Odin directly into TWRP before you go any further to set the recovery. So, after Odin is done (it should take about 2 to 3 seconds) hold the home, volume up and down, and the power buttons all at the same time until the tablet shuts down. Once the tablet powers down, let go of the volume down but keep holding in the power, home and volume up button until the screen comes on, then let go of the power button. Keep the home and volume up button pressed for an additional 1 to 2 seconds and then release all the buttons. It should now bit to TWRP. From the you can continue on as normal and TWRP will work once again for you.

Do not use any apps that reboot the device into recovery though (exposed, gravitybox, or any from the playstore). This will put you back into the TWRP bootloop once again and you will have to start all over again...lol... If you want to boot to recovery, use the button combo method to get there, this will not put you into the loop.

Again, the button combo method is: hold down power, home and volume up from a powered off device.

Hope this helps. It will get you back up and running.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] gunzup3:
Thank you for the input, I used advanced reboot to reboot into recovery to do a backup is what I did. I just flash the stock firmware to get it going again. Again thank you, I will keep this in mind for next time.

Worked great on first try!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Well all, I've decided to not continue with the latest update that Samsung released. If [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] updates his kennel to the latest update I will try again but that update just runs so bad that it's not worth even flashing. It needs a good kennel IMHO.. But If [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] updates his permissive kennel, I will try again. Right now I am running v.3 and the battery life is off the hook and the tablet is super smooth. So I'm not going to give that up for a security update. I did upload the firmware if anyone wants to try it for them selves. It is unaltered in any way and requires Odin to flash it. It has the April 2017 security update in it for those that just have to have the latest. I will bring it up again though that it ran really bad on my tablet.

I just bought this tablet. It was so slow and lag infested. Was going to return it. I loaded up v1 of this rom and wow tablet runs anything I throw at it, no lag.

What the heck is Samsung doing with their software?

Good job man, thank you. You may have just changed my mind.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] milan187:
Also is there a way to run this rom unrooted and pass safety net?

I dont really require root and it blocks access to some apps.

Had any success getting xposed installed without bootloops ?

if so.. which specific package did you go with ?

I've flashed 86.0 to 87.1 from the unofficial samsung downloads & loop every time :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Yes.... You have to use the Wanam special built Exposed and flash it in recovery. It will work with all of my builds. The link is in the OP. But here is a link to "Wanam's" threas where you can get it from.

A Thank-You & A Question

First I'd like to offer a heartfelt thank-you for not only creating the Rom but continuing to support it through this forum. I recently purchased the T350 for about $150 & added a microSD for about another 25 bucks. Every time I power up this tablet I am overwhelmed with gratitude... why? Well, partially because you gave me one awesome ROM but also because, within the course of the past 15 months, I lost a $65K a year job, had everything I ever owned stolen by a thought to be friend (who offered a place for me to store my belongings when I lost my home... only for him to say "who are you and get off my property" when I went to retrieve my things a couple days later), lived in my car with my 2 incredible and loving kitty-kids for 11 months and have been blessed to find a small efficiency the cats and I now call home... And Saved up to buy the Samsung Tab A 8.0 SM-T350.

My point? Though I can not afford the latest and greatest, Ghost Project Custom Rom is built as though the SM-T350 costs a million bucks... for that, I humbly and gratefully thank-you.

Oh yeah, the question... It seems the processor is 64 bit but the board is 32... shouldn't I be able to flash the firmware as 64 bit and if so, how?

Thanks again in advance,

Christopher Frank

odin

what files do i use in odin new to this stuff and i got a working root from this site but i need it as permissive not enforced
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
First off, thank you. This post really made my day. My goal was to have this tablet run smooth, have great battery life, and be rooted in system as apposed to system less and I have succeeded in all three. And since it was running so great I wanted to give back to the community and share. I will be trying to keep this updated as long as I can to it and still keep the 3 main goals intact.

Now, as for the processor and board, I will have to dig a little into that one. I was under the impression that they were the same, but again, I could be wrong so I will definitely check into this. I do know that the gaps have to be Arm and not Arm64 or x86 or even the x86_64. The last 3 packages will fail when trying to flash. I know this because of my testing with Evervolve rom and I also flash TBO's themed apps on Ghost Project to have some customization (I flash clear Player Store, clear YouTube, clear Hangouts and a few other Google apps).

Thank you again for the kind words and I hope your situation turns around for you too.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Well if you want permissive kernels than I recommend any of the first 3 roms that I posted. The first or the v1.1 is the Rom that I still run. It's the first one I posted and gets the best battery and performance. You have to be on the right firmware though and that firmware is flashed onto your device with Odin. The correct firmware like know time v1.1 is here

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862691877

Once you flash the firmware, you need to flash TWRP in Odin.

Then you can flash Ghost Project v1.1 with TWRP.

The later Rom builds do not have permissive kernel.

Thanks Man

Hey, Thanks, Just got out of a bootloop and installed this rom. Runs perfect!!!!

Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lepa71:
If I may ask. Why system root instead of systemless or magisk?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
I just don't like systemless root. I am of the old school, in that, if you are going to mod your device you root it. And you don't hide the fact that you did it but are proud that you did. I get it though, with Netflix now not allowing you to install from the Playstore if rooted but there are other alternatives like apkmirror.com or even running the themed app by [MENTION=1044913]tbo[/MENTION] . I have also found that in most cases that just the action of unlocking your device's bootloader (if it has one) will be enough to fail safety net check too so why bother.

So it is just a personal preference. I built this Rom the way I would have liked it to be for my personal use and since it was so good on battery life I decided to share it with anyone who had the same wants as me.

If you don't want root in system you can use the superSu uninstall zip and use what ever root method you want. Or simply extract the rom zip and remove the SuperSu zip file from the the folder called "root" and re-zip. Then flash the Sr3_v2.79 superSu zip after the Rom flashes.

Also, my later builds without the permissive kennel by [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] is rooted systemless. So these should suffice for those seeking systemless root.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
This is typical batter use on my rom
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] greendragon527:
Just to add to what you posted. If one is looking to use Magisk you would need the stock boot image for Magisk to patch, after using uninstalling SU.

Also, thanks for this rom! Great work! My battery life isn't as phenomenal as yours but the tablet is much smoother and snappier than stock I've been using it for quite a while, and have removed some more stuff on my own, and installed Magisk for my use case. Thumbs up and great work!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
You are welcome sir and thank you for the kind words

I'm on my first build that has [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] kennel in it and that is what really helps with the battery life, in my opinion. But unfortunately it will not work in my later builds. But if his kennel gets updated I will build another updated rom. The update I tried was really bad, even just running stock so I'm back to my first build.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] greendragon527:
Noted. I'm on V2, I hope he updates as well so I can try it out as well. So V2 uses the stock kernel? It's got a lot more options than I would have thought. I tweaked it a bit using kernel adiutor
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Yes that version also uses [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] kernel. So it is permissive and slightly tweakable

hi, I use this app on other devices without any issues

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antaresone.quickrebootpro&hl=en

when I use this on this table, ( Ghost Project v.3 6.0.1 t350) it gets in TWRP boot loop, I already contacted TWRP group with errorlog and they told me its becasue of kernel. are you using stock kernel on this or custom, did you try stock kernel if you did, do you know any plus minus of it on this Ghost Project v.3 6.0.1 t350?? this is not the only time I get twrp bootloop, if I do factory reset within the setting without even using that app it still put me on twrp bootloop, if I had to do factory reset then I use tWrp wipe to do it

Thanks for your work!!!

Fixed!!!!

I downloaded newer TWRP

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634754492

and it fixed it. Thanks you guys!!!!!!!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Yes, it has nothing to do with my rom or the kennel. It was an issue with the older TWRP that [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] built. His newer build, as you noticed fixed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jaladhjin:
What would happen if I took an ota on this while using systemless?

Might lose root sure.

Would it also make recovery stock again ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] glockman4519:
Yes you will loose your recovery. I dont think that the update will install correctly either. At least not without using Odin.
