I have a SM-T380. The firmware.mobi site only has the firmware for the SM-T385 model. The only difference is that the T385 model has a sim card.

Will I be okay to flash the T385 firmware onto my T380?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] ashyx:
No.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] 4929york:
Sammobile has firmware for the T380 here.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] shahmir_k:
But then how do I get root? Should I send my firmware to cf auto root and then just wait?

hi friend . i have your same tablet and the same problem after root with odin.

Which filem have you used to root the tablet nougat 585? and how have you configured odin to make root?

Thank you.

could you link me the correct file?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] bytetemplar:
I bought an SM-T585 tab few days ago and I just cant live without root access in Android world! I really need AdAway and Titanium Backup (got paid license) working on this device to make my move from old tab easier and remove some of the bloatware Samsung has added.

I upgraded to latest ( NRD90M.T585XXU2BQK5), went https://desktop.firmware.mobi/device:754/firmware:14452 to get the CF-AUTO-ROOT -package and downloaded it. Comes with Odin it seems, I guess I need to get drivers from Samsung site first though?

Now, I started wondering cause this will trip Knox, I guess this will stop OTA upgrades happening in future?

So I need to do upgrades manually with Odin in future (by downloading them from Sammobile -site)?

Is there a way to install Magisk instead of SuperSu? Will that also disable OTA upgrades?

Or should I go all in and just install custom ROM? LineageOS seems to be working on this tab and hopefully gets updated in future by someone. Then I would get rid of all bloat and start building my system like I want.

So many questions and information is bit confusing and scarce...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] repey6:
Yes you right. KNOX tripping in any case at least you will get supersu or magisk. But get update your firmware by Odin not difficult and more reliable then on air. You can install TWRP and then can install different custom roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] repey6:
Open link from OP. Select your firmware . In a bottom of page click CF-AUTO-ROOT. Configure by default and get file. Readme file into archive.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] craio80:
thank you guys. I tried to create a cf file on the site but it does not work.

I downgraded to the stock build of May and after cf auto root is work

Verification Failed SM-T580

I have the dreaded verification failed. I tried to root and had the drawing verification on. Now it will not verify. Tried the stock rom and still no go. Any other advice?

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] barrios35:
I ended up in the stock recovery and wipe data and factory reset and got out of the failure. I did have a backup so i was able to restore once I reformatted everything.

Will try to root again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] klingklang01:
tried that on my SM-T 580 nougat twice and it fail miserably the two times. connect, starting the process and fail a 2/3 of the job. also tried kingroot. Is there a safe and REAL rooting software that work out there?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] MikeT.:
[MENTION=702721]klingklang01[/MENTION] I'm not an owner of this device, but I know a member in a german android forum was going this way some weeks ago and it worked for him (that's what he said).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] scoobysnack:
If your having a problem rooting install TWRP then select "WIPE/Format Data", reboot bootloader and run CF Autoroot. You should have root after that :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] flroots:
I'm looking to purchase the Galaxy Tab A (T580) in the near future. My main reason for rooting is to allow for Nandroid backups/restores on TWRP. Are there any gotchas that I should be aware of? Some specific questions might be:

1. is the bootloader unlocked?

2. can OTA updates be received without unrooting and returning to stock?

3. Is the warranty voided by rooting?

4. Assuming the tablet comes with Android 6.0 does it make sense to upgrade to 7.0 before rooting?​

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] scoobysnack:
I had the same questions when I bought mine. There was no problems rooting EXCEPT when I soft bricked installing twrp using the app. Install TWRP FIRST (ODIN) then formate data, you should not have any problems rooting after that. I used CF Autoroot but hind site says I should have tried Magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] flroots:
I purchased the Galaxy Tab A (T580) today and am already in trouble. The Odin of CF-Auto-Root seemed to go fine (ie, it passed), but when I installed TWRP at Play Store things went amiss. First I didn't know whether to download the img or the img.tar. I ended up downloading both, but could find no step to actually flash either. Now I'm getting the message: Blocked by FRP Lock. How do I recover from that? Thanks for any help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] lewmur:
You must have installed TWRP without turning on OEM Enalble in Developer Options. You'll now have to go through a complicated proceedure to get around the lock. But, your in luck in that the fix is listed in a thread in the Q&A section.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] ashyx:
No need yet for FRP bypass procedures as long as you haven't factory reset the device in recovery.

Download and install the stock firmware from updato.com.

This will remove the FRP warning.

Next search Google for OEM_UNLOCK.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] flroots:
Thanks. I did as you suggested and all is well. It did take awhile to find the correct firmware. Finally found it here: https://www.theandroidsoul.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-a-firmware/ and selected: T580UEU2BQF1_T580XAC2BQF1_XAC.zip

Update: I did install TWRP using Odin. Guess I got scared off by the app and I've read elsewhere to stay clear of the app in favor of Odin :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] flroots:
I've discovered a problem. I encounter a 6-9 second delay after entering the security pattern before I'm logged in? I wasn't sure what caused it so I un-rooted, reverted to stock, and did a factory reset. At that point there was no delay. I then rooted using CF-Auto-Root and the delay reappeared. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any fixes?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] krakout:
First of all, a word of warning to every newbie or not-so-noob out there: even though over the years I've rooted and flashed many, many devices, it seems I still haven't learned to read a whole thread. Lesson: I'm not as smart as I thought I was.

I blindly followed the OP guide and ended up with a FRP lock. What can I do now to recover my T580?

Also, I haven't managed to find out - how do I boot into recovery from power-off?

Thanks!

A total Samsung newb.

If I root my device Galaxy Tab A (2016, 10.1, LTE) (SM-T585) will be everything erased or it stays like before?

I'm facing with Samsung for the first time in my life and I must to ask before I do some stupid thing!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] cmichael258:
Nothing will be erased; however always a good idea to do a backup before doing anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] atomantmk:
I'm trying to root my SM-T585 but without success.

Using latest ODIN version and CF-Auto-Root-gtaxllte-gtaxlltexx-smt585.tar but after first boot I see this on my screen:

Verification failed

Unable to restart your device. The integrity verification has failed.

You need to reset your device to factory default settings.

This will erase all your data.

RESET

What I'm doing wrong?!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] ashyx:
Factory reset in recovery, immediately reboot to download mode, flash root.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] atomantmk:
After rooting and booting it comes security notice that unatorised access.

About recovery, I'm trying to install custom recovery from TWRP but tablet want boot.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] krakout:
Isn't this the problem related to not enabling third-party in Dev options? Or do I need more caffeine before offering suggestions?

If that's the one, you need to flash stock again, boot and enable that option, *then* proceed with recovery and rooting...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] lewmur:
I think you mean /Developer options/OEM enable. But if that's the case, it is too late now, unless the Google login and password are known.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] atomantmk:
I have OEM enabled and USB Debugging too but when I flash custom recovery from TWRP application or ODIN phone want to boot.

After erasing all data once again root install over ODIN and now I have rooted tablet without recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] lewmur:
If you allow the tablet to re-boot to the system, it will just re-write to stock recovery and erase TWRP. To prevent this, before clicking the Start button in Odin to flash TWRP, click on Options and uncheck the auto-reboot option. Then click Start and let it flash. Now, hold the Vol down, Home and Power buttons for about ten seconds. As soon as the screen goes black, and you must be fast, switch your finger from the Vol down to Vol up and wait for the Samsung logo to appear. When it does, release the Power button while still pressing Home and Vol up. This will cause the tablet to boot to TWRP and you're good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] krakout:
Ah yes, that, I knew I was getting something wrong!

But in my case, I got stuck too, so I just flashed stock, enabled the option and went through the process again, never saw the login issue...?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] MindTrix:
Tripping knox is when you flash a modified boot or recovery img file, I happen to have the ENG BOOT image for the T-580 series and I think adding SU through ADB might work and not trip anything.. its late but I will try to flash this boot.img file on the wife's tab A, if it works I can then root but I am going to download stock firmware first and it might take awhile, sammobile is not real fast. will post what I find out...

Hello everyone, a question: (Sorry for my english)

Is it possible to flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0-gtaxlwifi.img on gtaxllte?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] AnThOnY92":
I answer myself, yes.

Using CF-Auto-Root with USB debugging and OEM Unlock enabled i received message "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" without going into recovery anymore so i did so:

1. Install the file twrp-3.2.1-0-gtaxlwifi.img.tar (Then the Wi-Fi version) via Odin, deselecting the entry for Auto Reboot before flash;

2. Enter recovery and perform full reset for full memory problem;

3. Copied inside the internal memory (which has quietly opened me from PC), in the TWRP folder Magisk v16.0.zip;

4. Flash of the Magisk v16.0.zip file always from TWRP.

It all works perfectly

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] Statee:
I signed up to XDA because I am having real trouble getting TWRP to work on my SM-T585. It's running the latest version of Android 7.0, supplied by Samsung.

I can get the old CF Root method to Root successfully, but the new method does not seem to do anything except disable stock recovery.

When I install TWRP via Odin, it installs perfectly fine, but as soon as it enters TWRP via anyway; Auto-Reboot from Odin, turning of Auto Reboot and then going into recovery manually, installing TWRP then going into OS and then powering off, then going into TWRP... They all fail and I end up with a weird graphical-like glitch, that I cannot explain... It's like the Tablet has been dropped and the IPS panel is broken. Yet it's not even two days old from being opened from factory seal. I don't know how I can word this, it's like the GUI is overly stretched and doesn't fit the display. Yet the display works fine everywhere else, just TWRP. I have tried so many many TWRP version's, for WiFi and LTE, S Pen models too, some version's don't boot which is expected, but I cannot get any version of TWRP to display correctly. TWRP does work underneath the lines, as when I interact with the screen it does change the line's color or uniformity.

Any ideas, will be much appreciated. I just cannot find this online anywhere that I look.

It looks like the kernel twrp is using is not compatible with the bootloader of the firmware you are running.

Which firmware build is your device running and the latest version of TWRP you have tried?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] Statee:
Latest firmware for the Galaxy Tab A 10.1 LTE (BRF1) Official. Also TWRP versions from 3.1.1-0 to 3.2.3-0. Both versions that I could find (modified LTE) and WiFi.

Any ideas? I could try? The bootloader is just Stock.

My setup is basically stock everything, even OS, and then I tried the CF method installing Official TWRP app then flashing from there, alongside without CF.

Anything you need to know more of? Let me know. I appreciate you helping, I literally for the life of me could not figure it out, and it was so confusing why haha.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] ashyx:
I take it TWRP worked previously before updating the firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] milaremi:
I can sympathize with this thread from Statee. Just picked up a current version of the Tablet (Wifi, 2016) from Costco, 2 days ago. I have flashed multiple times (Odin method) with the latest firmware and attempted latest TWRP recovery (3.2.3.0) via Odin also. TWRP installs, but after shutdown (HOME+PWR+VOL_DOWN) and immediate attempt (HOME+PWR+VOL_UP after black screen shutdown) to bring up TWRP, I too get the graphic stripes and artifacts mentioned.

Am guessing that Samsung has altered something recently, possibly in the Kernel, to prevent a recovery replacement.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Guides, News, & Discus] Statee:
I've sold mine now, but I think that you are right, this TWRP version needs an update to the latest version as I do feel they have changed something... I even tried rolling back a few versions, be it it kept crashed and then instant bootloop and soft reset would get it back up and working, it did not work. So I re-installed original software and then got rid of it to a family member with the latest firmware. Sadly, if you were going to install TWRP on the T585 do with one that hasn't been updated to BRF1 as it doesn't work on the latest updated from Samsung.

I easily rooted a T580 with CF-Autoroot and Odin, and now I'm trying a second tablet but having a hard time! This one has Oreo 8.1 installed via Samsung Smart Switch. Its not currently encrypted. OEM Unlock, USB Debug and USB verify are set correctly. I downloaded the matching CF-Autoroot package from Firmware.mobi for my build (M1AJQ.T580UEU4CRK5) and flashed it in Odin successfully. However when the tablet reboots, it just goes right back into the normal boot sequence and into normal non-rooted desktop.

I tried a factory reset, and re-downloading the CF-Autoroot package but same result. I never get the stream of text and the red pirate Android logo I had when rooting the first tablet. Just normal reboot. Any ideas? I'm stumped! I read this thread but didn't see anything that I think would help. (I did not try try using the TWRP method to root, wanted to keep it with CF-Autoroot)

Hi,

T580, 7.0, kernel 3.18.14-12479655, build NRD90M. T580UEU2BQL1

I have enabled OEM unlock.

I downloaded CF-Auto-Root-gtaxlwifi-gtaxlwifixx-smt580.tar.md5, Run Odin 3.10.6, Put the md5 file in AP slot. The Options tab has Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time enabled by default. Pressed Start. The process went through and I can see the CF Auto Root log in the screen. When it finished, it rebooted. But I got the verification error below

Verification failed

Unable to restart your device. The integrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data.

At the bottom is the reset button. I really don't want to lose all the data. Is there any way to recover?

Or is there any way to connect to the tablet to retrieve some file? There is just one folder I really need but it needs root.

I tried to boot into recovery. It shows a logo and "installing system update". A few seconds later the logo tilted and says "no command" and it entered into recovery.

At the top:

Android Recovery

7.0/NRD90M/T580XXU2BQE7 ---- this is different from my build version T580UEU2BQL1

At the bottom

Successfully verify for dmverify hash tree

E:failed to find /misc partition

I wiped the cache and rebooted. Same verification error.

I then used https://desktop.firmware.mobi/device:752 to configure an CF-AUTO-ROOT package, download it, and Odin flash it again. When it reboot, I can see the red line on top:

It did not go through the script and the device boots normally with the verification error.
