First time, I use Odin_v3.09. The result is the same. The actual version in the OP is now Odin3_v3.12.7. I will try this one.

.. And it work, without error!! :) but it seems not realy fine.. the second restart do not work :( now I get the only the msg:

"Security Error: This device has been flashed with unauthorizied software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support. Please note that repair/return for this issue may have addittional cost."

But I can start the download-mode, for start a recovery with smart switch again. (now I have the delivery status again)

As I start TWRP first time, I wipe the data partiion. Proof, mount data is checked and flash SuperSU and no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip. This works, but I see an error msg "failed mount data partition".

I´m glad, to fix the tablet again. But I will not give up to use TPRP again.

Now TWRP works fine like usual! :) I guess, I should never repeat to disable "OEM-Lock", cause I believe, thats the reason for the nice "Security Error" screen. BTW: I also root the tab.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DroidIt!:
You said you wiped the /data partition. Did you FORMAT it though. You need to type "yes" and confirm to format. That solved the mount /data issue for me. It'll wipe all data obviously ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
I think I done it

1. flashed uk firmware [allow me to skip wifi and enter google account]

2. flashed twrp and reboot normal

3. reboot in twrp and do ALL THE root things

4. reboot

5. download the TWRP Manager (Requires ROOT) MANUALLY WAY

6. do backup with TWRP Manager (Requires ROOT)

7. reboot

my tablet is rooted ok

but now I scared to put my google account in lolol
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
I don't really have much more I can suggest. This FRP Lock issue is what is causing the problem.

I'll look out for the engineering firmware, which may help bypass FRP.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
ok

I would like to know how tab s3 users which SM-T825 do they have?

I will buy one because I need it for my communication
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Ch3ck3rM0n:
Please help me, I flashed TWRP and no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx then I boot into system. I configured my tablet. Did uninstall MicrosoftApps with root permission and now I wanted to restart and get into the security error. Can't boot into system anymore and TWRP is blocked by FRP LOCK.

What can I do, please help me :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
I got same thing hapening to me
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] mark.mccv:
I have the same FRP issue.

You can odin the official low-ship firmware to set the tablet back to its original stage.

Sadly, I can not find a way to solve the FRP issue at boot.

If you don't login google account, everything (root, twrp, reboot) works.

Once you login google, there will always be security FRP at boot.

Therefore, there will be no root if you want your google account logged in.

However, I find a way to apply ashyx's adoptable storage patch.

Mine is T825C, there is no OEM locking in dev. option, you have to apply the CROMservice in order to install TWRP. Here is how I do,

1. Reset the machine, don't login google account

2. Run CRom apk to off cromservice ( you can find the apk in this thread)

3. Odin Twrp

4. Boot to Twrp

5. Format Data partition using FORMAT DATA button under Wipe options.

6. Install SuperSU (if root is required)

7. Install boot image patch below.

8. Install ashyx's adoptable storage patch

9. Reboot

10. Format sd card as internal storage and migrate data to sd

11. Boot to odin, flash back the low-ship firmware (This time, use CSC_HOME to keep everything)

12. Reboot, then you can login google account. There will be no FRP at Boot and have adoptable storage still working.

However, Root still can not work.

I am no professional and the method might be stupid to them.

Anyway, Thanks for ashyx to answer my question in other thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Ch3ck3rM0n:
Thank you, I found another solution. Install full firmware via Samsung KIES.

didn't work on myT825C,

may be, I have to wait for the custom rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
hi ashyx

I would like to know if I buy the normal SM-T825

will I get same issue with FRP ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] noratroll:
No issues with aqf3 on sm-t820 with supersu 2.82sr3 except for secure settings for tasker does not see root (might work with magisk instead).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] mark.mccv:
I am thinking the same question or if I can install T825 rom into T825C machine.

From the internet, someone said that it won't trigger the FRP if turn the OEM unlocking on.

For T825C, there is no OEM unlocking option.

I can only install CROMservice to install twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
The international SM-T825 will have OEM UNLOCK and will be able to disable FRP.

I think you guys should contact Samsung and speak to the tech department. It doesn't make sense there is no OEM UNLOCK on this model seeing as the bootloader can be unlocked with CROM SERVICE apk.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
try this https://www.root-android.in/how-to-unlock-bootloader-of-chinese-samsung-galaxy-using-crom/

or to dangerous to do

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
yes but I done with only AP

I didn't try with BL because I I scared to do it lol
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
I'd flash the CSC also as this can also decide what settings you have.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
so can flash fully uk firmware on the sm-t825c ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
Unlikely the bootloader will flash. Just try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:

Fair play to you though you haven't made an issue of it at all and you've coped with many things even able bodied people struggle with.

I understand how important this device is for you.

Which parts of the UK firmware don't flash?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] carlo67:
I tried only ap UK firmware

I am scared to flash BL
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] mark.mccv:
i am so sorry about that.

i didnt mean that your situation .

i just think that the support keep repeating same answer from their guideline and they seem dont have any tech background on their product.

btw, i trird to flash the uk BL too, but odin wont allow to do so.

Check the bands for your country and see if the international T825 covers those bands.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] DeHAWK:
Hey bro

My TAB is the unlocked Europe model: SM-T825 running Open Nordic CSC or same as Open Europe....

Can you, or anybody else, explain this:

I was doing some testing, I repacked both the Original boot and recovery images...then flashed them in an, of my own created, Odin packet. The packet for Odin AP only contained boot.img, recovery.img and a unmodified system image. At the same time I flashed my local CSC.

In Odin I untagged the AutoReboot option and after a success flash I went directly to recovery mode to install my local CSC...no magic so far.

Afterwards the TAB rebooted...after a while I got a strange message...saying something like it needed to format my data due to non-official software...I answered OK, and I said to myself...NOW IT WILL FINALLY trigger my warranty bit.

After a totally new set up, as after a factory reset, I went to Odin mode. And here the mystic starts...my Warranty bit is still NOT set..

Look at the below picture, taken with my Galaxy S7, after I entered Odin mode..

This is exactly the same as after flashing TWRP from OP...

View attachment 4270671

On my S7 Edge, the warranty bit was triggered at the second I flashed TWRP...

I hope see some answers to this.

Hmm OK, I may know what the issue is. You can still boot the device into android OK?

I will come back with a fix to try.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] unti20:
Yeah, after flashing the twrp file and check "auto reboot" I can still boot into android.

When I try to boot into recovery without reboot after flashing, i stuck into the loop, even if i turn of the device.

At this point i can´t boot into the system.

Many many thanks to ashes! Kudos!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] psychotropic:
Also reporting that everything works. Plenty of root apps running, plenty of root stuff done, definitely put ad blocking hosts file from my rooted S7 Edge in my Tab S3 and browsing, ad free, clean webpages (I know there's apps that do this, but I've had to manually edit entries so let me do what I want).

Only speed bump I encountered was on first boot after root, SuperSU took forever trying to disable Knox and hanging. A simple reboot fixed it and SuperSU was able to disable Knox right away. Works great. Thanks!

Themes on the Tab S3?

First of all thanks for the information on ROOTING and flashing TWRP on the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 - I followed instructions in the OP and all is working beautifully -

I did see someone mention that they couldn't wait to flash themes now that they are rooted and I wondered if they were talking about the Samsung Themes Store ? And if so - HOW do I go about doing that? (assuming it is even possible at this point?)

Frustrating that we don't have a dedicated thread for our Tablet - hopefully they will give us one soon so we cna stop hijacking this thread - but in the meantime, if there is a way to flash Samsung Themes on this device, I sure would appreciate instructions and a link. I have tried searching but can't find anytihng -

Fingers crossed one of you know how to do it -

thanks friends.....awesome tablet by the way - best one I have ever owned. LOVE the camera - (Cameras have always been a week spot on Tablets and Samsung finally did it right on this one.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] CAL7:
Tab S3 arrived this morning; rooted this afternoon

Followed all the instructions and everything worked exactly as was described. Being unfamiliar with Samsung, some of it was a little new, but zero hiccups. Closest I came to having a problem was due to not copying SuperSU and the boot image patch to the device ahead of time - but it was a simple matter to move them over once TWRP was up.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] jonathonalexander:
It works , it boots , but it's like every app is a critical system app .. even things like PowerPoint for example. If I uninstall that the tablet basically needs re a reflashing stock . Can't even factory reset because when I go through set up it keeps crashing
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
Depends how you're removing the app. Why remove anyway, you dont gain anything just freeze.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Zimus:
If it's a pre-installed application, it has been installed as a system app - that's just the way Samsung does things. It's annoying as hell, but it causes fewer problems for them from a user-support perspective.

If you insist on doing so, you should be able to remove the Microsoft Office apps without too much difficulty via Titanium Backup (or something similar), but removing the Samsung apps themselves is a dicier proposition. Honestly, the space gained by physically removing them is generally not worth it. If a particular app is annoying you, just disable it or use Titanium to "freeze" it, that way if it starts causing problems it can be easily fixed.

Hi bro

I have, using Odin, flashed TWRP from OP. And the status is the same...Warrenty bit still 0x0.

Atm. I'm on my S7, but at my TAB I tried to setup Secure folder...faild - system midified.

But I don't care, what confuses me is the 0x0 warranty bit.

Normally, if you make changes to the boot.img or the recovery.img it will trigger the Warranty bit. This has been the case on all my recent Samsung phones. Atm. I don't have any idea about this. Normally, flasing TWRP will trigger the Warranty bit, but not here. Not even a modified stock boot.img or recovery.img triggered it...

Any idea bro?

So are you actually able to boot to TWRP?

I have seen this before, not sure which device, but it was also a mystery. They had somehow managed to flash a custom recovery and not trip knox.
