IIRC, I couldn't even pull a useful last_kmsg from mine. Every time I booted back to TWRP to pull the log, I'd get a log of the TWRP kernel booting. It seems from your message that the bootloader wants to see a signed boot or kernel image, the provision of which is presumably ordinarily dealt with by Samsung's internal build system.

All of the details of my attempts to boot a custom kernel can be found earlier in this thread. I posted quite extensively on the subject at the time.

There is no way I know of to make it portrait.

No Root

Hello there.

I haven't done any rooting for a number of years and I have poured through this topic and have not found a solution. I hope I am not just being dense. :p

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet S3 with Android 8.0.0 and am trying to get root access so I may hopefully recover some photos and videos I lost thinking I had backed them up first... but hadn't. ugh

I have followed the steps outlined but am unable to get root access to stick. I do not care about saving any current data or programs.

This is what I have done so far, numerous times with no success:

1. Use Odin AP to flash twrp_3.2.1-1_T820_28518

2. Boot to TWRP

3. Flash T820XXU1BRE2_dmverity_patched_boot using extracted boot.iso from external sd card(I have also flashed the .Tar version using odin a few times)

4. reboot to TWRP

5. install Tabs3_oreo_forced encryption_disabler from external sd card

6. Format data

7. Reboot and check DATA is mountable

8. Install Magisk 16.7 from external SD card

9. Reboot

Every time it reboots it is not rooted. I have tried the SU instead of Magisk, Magisk 17 and even a custom SU file.

Am I missing a step? I read that people are restoring an image after installing Magisk but I do not have an image to restore as it is a fresh Samsung install. I have tried different combinations only to find the root didn't stick. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
Open magisk manager and download the latest 17.1 zip then install with twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ianmacd:
That's great news.

Rather than ask you your time frame for starting work on this (which someone will doubtless interpret as a request for an ETA and read me the riot act), I've succumbed to the temptation to have a shot at building this myself.

To gain experience with the TWRP build environment, I'm first trying to build the existing device tree for the S9+ before I embark on creating one from scratch. I'm running into a compile problem with that, however, which you can read about in the TWRP compilation thread.

However, I was wondering whether your S3 Tab device tree might function as a useful template for my S4 Tab device tree. It's not an officially supported device, however, so I can't find this tree on-line anywhere. If you think it might be helpful to me, would you mind providing me with it? If any other device tree works just as well as a starting point, however, I'll just use that of the S9+.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Meebumitches:
17.1 did the trick. I was even able to root from Magisk Manager running in Android. You are the best! Thank you so much.

The bad news is all the previous efforts seem to have overwritten the files. No luck with Diskdigger except the one picture I have a back up of :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] davidk21770:
I misread the instruction to format data and I wiped it instead. :o

I then installed magisk and no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip and I have a rooted, working version of the tablet! (This IS a good thing :)).

My problem is that data is still encrypted so I can not back it up or access it outside of a system boot (titanium, mpt, or tar from the commandline).

I'm not sure what' s best here -- I DO have a rooted working tablet! But I'd like to have a full nandroid backup which I think means that I need to somehow get the factory boot and recovery back to do a factory reset and follow the instructions to the letter and format, not wipe data. How do I do that? I did grab some factory ROMs, but I don't know what country to grab (USA's not there :confused:). Can I restore just recovery and boot? Will that trip knox? (I THINK I'm still KNOX ok).

What files do I put where in ODIN?

I have a BL_... AP_..., HOME_CSC_ATO_..., and CSC_ATO_...

(This is a T820 if it makes a difference -- wifi only, no modem).

Thanks!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
Just boot to twrp and format. No need to reinstall the stock firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] davidk21770:
TWRP can't find data -- it's encrypted and according to other posts, the only way to get it back is a factory reset...

I get the message "could not mount /data and unable to find crypto header"
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ianmacd:
You don't need to mount it in order to format it. If you did, it wouldn't be possible to format any unformatted partition. Nor should you ever format a mounted file system, because the system will become very confused.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
If /data could already be mounted then Formatting wouldn't be necessary.

Full instructions to mount data are provided in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] davidk21770:
EDIT: GOT IT!

2 things I missed: I am running OREO and didn't flash Tabs3_oreo_forced+encryption_disabler.zip (thought that the tablet had Nougat installed); and

I didn't set a PIN on set-up this time. I waited until a few reboots (and checks for /data) to set a PIN!

All appear well! Thank you!

Old...

Thanks for the responses!

I am currently tar'ing /data in the hopes that after formatting, I'll be able to restore it from TWRP and not need to start over building my system.

I have another question.

I am using no-verify-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip from another source (I expect it's the same file as linked in the op).

I see here in the op that this is for nougate and i am running oreo. should i switch to t820xxu1bre2_dmverity_patched_boot.tar?

Thanks!

Edit: Knox is tripped... so I removed my KNOX question...

Edit: STUCK!

The forgotten step was that I was running Oreo and not installing Tabs3_oreo_forced+encryption_disabler.zip

BUT, it is still encrypting /data.

My steps...

Format /data

Install T820XXU1BRE2_dmverity_patched_boot.img, Magisk-v17.1.zip, Tabs3_oreo_forced+encryption_disabler.zip.

Boot to recovery and make sure that /data is mountable.

Boot to system and go through the hoops -- wifi off so it doesn't connect to anyone (like google or samsung).

Use magisk to boot back to recovery to check on /data. It's not mountable...

Hi

I am new to this forum and using advanced feature with Android Tablet. I have a few questions before I go flashing the device:

1. Will this delete my existing data on my Galaxy Tab S3?

2. Can I still get future Samsung Update?

3. Will the future update "de-root" my device?

4. Can I go back "un-root" my device if I decided so in the future?

5. Can I prevent my Android device from someone else flashing the Rom in case I lost my device?

I was looking to root my device to:

1. Transfer my Samsung Notes data to somewhere else. I took handwriting note and the size became so large (near 7GB), and I am not able to access the data

2. For Anti-theft (Cerberus)

I hope to hear back from everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Orbital_Logic:
Someone was so kind as to post tutorials for beginners on how to build custom roms and AOSP ROMs from source. However my question is, don't I need a device tree for my particular device in order to be able to do that? I noticed that the o p has device-tree listed, but no link to anything in particular. Does anybody have this for the t820? Lineage OS has been dropped for our device as many of you probably already know. However I'd like to pick up where he left off and experiment over the next few months.

TWRP device tree for T820

Hi [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION],

You have quite a few TWRP device tree repos on your GitHub, but not the one for the T820. If it's not too much trouble, would you mind committing that one, too?

I have started to build a device tree for the T830 (Tab S4), so that I can compile TWRP for that device. Being able to look at your previous work would probably reduce the number of first-timer errors that I make.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] ashyx:
Ian, I have released an initial build of TWRP for the TabS4.

Source code isn't available on git yet, however you are welcome to look it over. I can archive it and send it.

I read somewhere the Dolby Atmos would not work fine , is that correct ?

Are there some other funktions that will not work fine , like secure folder or Samsung Healph app ? (i dont use it in the tablett but i remember in note 4 was there a problem in the beginning with roooting and this app also the virtual tour in camera didnt work after root).

If the post is still fine and working i would like to try it :) , if not please help me where i have to look for a working way to root my Tablett.
