I am new to rooting my Tab s3 so pardon me if any of my questions are redundant. I will be following the directions from post "Newbie-friendly: TWRP and Root for Samsung S3 Tablet". Can someone please confirm the following for me before I root -

1. I am running on the most recent firmware T820XXU2BRL1, do I need to complete process #3 REFLASH ORIGINAL FIRMWARE?

2. After I complete root process will my Tab s3 automatically be set to recognize SD Card as internal storage or will I need to complete another setting or process? This is my main reason to rooting.

3. Second reason is to remove bloatware. Does anyone know of a post advising which bloatware on Tab s3 to remove safely and which ones to leave alone?

4. After completing root process following directions from post "Newbie-friendly: TWRP and Root for Samsung S3 Tablet" has anyone experienced any Tab s3 functions or app not working properly? Is USB-OTG working?

my Tab S3 delivered today and followed ur guide and did in first try! send Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] cdeitrich00:
Great post. Im having an issue. With my tab s3. Yesterday i was updating magisk manager and after i did it stopped charging. I thought my charger came unplugged but it didnt. Now the only way i can charge it is to put it in twrp and let it charge. But its unresponsive when its powered on and when its off it just loops the charging screen. But wont charge. I jave tried to revert back to a previous back up but had no luck. I was plannig on flashing stock firmware when i get back to my computer.. but any input would be greatly appreciated..
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jd1639:
I don't know why your tab won't charge. Updating magisk should be totally unrelated to charging. Did you have any magisk modules that would have modified charging parameters?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] hipocrazy:
Quick question. I'm already on the latest firmware, my bootloader is unlocked so can I just run Odin, flash twrp and then any pre-rooted Rom? Or do I need to follow all these steps? It's been awhile since I've flashed anything and just want to make its done properly. TIA

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] c4manceph:
That's correct.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] toy4x4:
Is that the only drawback?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] mantarkus:
On reboot I got: 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.

Now what?

UPDATE: Oh I see, I totally skipped e. "Click Wipe then Format Data". Now it's fixed and working properly. Now to remove some bloatware.

THANKS ! Works also for Android PIE

Hi,

thanks,

I did a clean install of Android Pie for my Samsung Galaxy Tab S3, SM-T825.

Altough not yet officially available for my country, I downloaded the version for the Netherlands (PHN-T825XXU3CSH9-20190909091851) from the SamFrew-site [

https://samfrew.com/nl/download/Galaxy__Tab__S3__/evss/PHN/T825XXU3CSH9/T825PHN3CSH8/[/URL

] . As one can anyway customize languages, etc., no problem.

Then I followed your guide step by step.

I added BusyBox, latest version from XDA developers []https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1929852 as last step, in 5. g

Altough written for OREO, all this steps work perfectly well on my Android PIE !

Including the use of the Ashxy's oreo encryption disabler of point 1.f

(I didn't find a similar disabler for Android Pie yet... Someone a better idea ?)

Rootchecker confirms that I have Root access and that BusyBox is indeed installed.

Thanks very much - great help !

baudi
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] klaberte:
Thanks for the update! Just wondering, why did you add busybox and XDA developers at the end of step 5g? XDA developers could have been installed as a standard app once the tablet is up and running, no?

Why manually installing BusyBox at this point of the setup?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] robroyz:
Great, thanks baudi. I was just contemplating doing the same with my SM-T820 wifi only. I was a bit concerned about whether the "Tabs3_oreo_forced+encryption_disabler.zip" would also work with Pie but I now feel confident to proceed .:good: :good: :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bone-fish:
Awesome! Worked for me with my new tab3. I will say the first attempt tripped the Knox and wouldn't let me boot the device. I couldn't even get into flash recovery / TWRP. Kept booting into a screen that said my tablet had flashed unapproved ROM and that I needed to contact my provider to get it fixed which may include fees.

What I did is reflash to the stock firmware and started over. Then after you use TWRP to load magisk it will boot for the first time as a rooted device with magisk. Do Not turn it off and boot back into TWRP.

First go into the settings and again select allow boot loader to be unlocked. Because mine seemed to have turned itself off causing the next reboot to boot loop with that message. Anyway, once confirmed as turned on, or if needed, reselected, you shouldn't have the boot loop problem.

Then you can continue with the instructions and re boot into flash recovery / TWRP

I should add that I cant flash the TWRP image file immediately until I go into the settings after the first boot and turn on internet and usb debugging.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] eido_ntd:
I have that problem too. I was wondering at what step did you reboot the tablet to re-allow boot loader to be unlocked? Is it at 5.g that you reboot the tablet after flashing Magisk to make that change and then continue with 5.h?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bone-fish:
I turned on usb debugging and internet after 3.d and after 5.h

It's the only way my tablet will allow me to flash TWRP and then to not boot loop into the "unapproved ROM" type message.

I should add that some people mentioned that if you turn on the internet right away as part of a "new user" setup, the OEM unlocker option wont be available for 7 days or something after you do a fresh flash. The work around is not to log into the internet right away.

First go through new user ser up and skip everything and then turn on developer options. This sets your "date" in the past. Then turn on your usb debugging while your in the settings. Then log into the internet this will set the date to current. The system detects the "change" in date from the default time/date to today's date greater than 7 days and the OEM unlocker is again available.

Then continue with your next flashing process.

I followed the steps and have my tablet up and running with TWRP but I don't see Magisk and Root Checker says device isn't rooted. Can anyone help?

-SM-T820, Android Pie
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bone-fish:
Yes I am running the tab S3 with Pie and rooted via this process.

---------- Post added at 05:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 PM ----------

I've had to reflash several times using this process for multiple reasons (because I experiment too much and break things).

During my last reflashes (at least ten times) over the last week, I have encountered this same problem several times but not every time.

I fixed it by booting back into TWRP and re-installed magisk from the SD card again and rebooted immediately. I didnt reinstall the other persistence app regarding encryption. Anyway, reinstalling seem to clear it up every time as I recall. FYI - Your root checker app cant see root because Magisk will give it root access.... without Magisk running and granting the root checker root access, it will fail root check.

First time rooting a Tab S3. Followed directions exactly. Fails when I try to flash [twrp_3.2.1-1_T820_28518.tar] using AP in Odin 3.13. In DL mode on tablet it says "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed". I can still boot to the factory rom [SM-T820_1_20190902210553_w35ajp4vzi_fac] which I downloaded and decrypted from [SamFirm_v0.3.5.zip]. Tried powering off, then booting into DL mode but same error. Also tried re-downloading TWRP. Any advice on how I can get TWRP flashed?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] CVSickle:
Has anyone stumbled onto a way to end up with an encrypted and rooted SM-T820?

This guide was great by the way. I was able to root, debloat, and degoogle my tablet and it is working better than ever... I'm just hoping there's a way to encrypt it.

Please understand, I'm new to rooting, so please let me know if what I'm looking for isn't possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] square_eyes:
Getting ready to do my SM-T820 for the first time because it's slow as hell, and by all accounts should still be a capable tab. Have experience rooting/flashing other roms but I'm already having a bad time. Magisk has no download links that I can see on that link.... just pages of changelog. Also UPDATO (Sammobile is now paid?) requires a user account and their email verification link results in a 503. All instructions are for Oreo but this device has been on Pie for a long time. I see some people say it still works though. I just want stock android/debloat. Anything to speed this thing up and get security updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] square_eyes:
Ended up just de-bloating and it's a bit more usable. Followed this... https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyTab/comments/fd2c1m/debloat_for_galaxy_tab_s3/
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bmwdroid:
I've did debloating by flashing the tweaked ROM.

Not to much left I still want to get rid of.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] iksander:
i followed this tut, but i got this error:

security error: this device has been flashed with unauthorized software and is locked.

i just want to make this thing faster because it lags as hell.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bmwdroid:
I had that on mine when I flashed without OEM unlocking.

Can you still access download mode?

Then I recommend to flash stock again and start all over again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] BenG7:
+ @Bone-fish + @klaberte (update OP please)

for pie, you are supposed to flash

- RMM V3 bypass

- Dmverity and encryption patch

instead of the oreo-specific Tabs3_oreo_forced encryption_disabler (see here)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] klaberte:
Thanks for letting me know. So, flash these two files in step 5h, instead of the single file 'Tabs3_oreo_forced encryption_disabler'?

Does it matter in which order they are flashed?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] BenG7:
1) yes

2) I don't know if the order matters but I flashed them in the order mentioned in the post I referenced, RMM V3 bypass first then Dmverity and encryption patch

Hope this helps ;)

Worked perfectly on Android 8 Galaxy Tab S3, but how would I unroot to upgrade to Android 9 w/Smart Switch?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] none5912:
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe once you've tripped Knox it's not really untrippable these days. :-/ And I've not been able to get it to accept updates in that way afterwards

One thing people should keep in mind potentially is that the Knox flag can also, I think, cause streaming video apps with secured streams (particularly with smaller companies who didn't build their service 100% themselves, like Criterion or Kanopy -- whereas I didn't notice this was a problem with prime or netflix) to refuse play on your device. This one is probably solveable in some fashion, since we can imagine any number of workarounds
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] mathematician:
Then where do I find exact model number & stock Android 9 ROM (to flash with TWRP?) I have a SM-T820NZSAXAR but know exact model numbers are actually a few more letters than such given, and I've had critical problems in past installing ROMs for Samsung devices where rest of the model number differs.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bmwdroid:
To upgrade to 9 just flash multiple part stock ROM using Odin.

You can download it with SamFirm_Reborn_0.3.6.3 filling in device name and region.

Bootloader will be overwritten and root is gone.

Every old stuff will be deleted.

Odin doesn't care if it's rooted or not.

Never used smartswitch so Idk if that works on rooted devices.

BUT if its rooted already why don't you flash TWRP and use debloated/tweaked 9 from @rorymc928 or even 11 from @Awesometic?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] mathematician:
I like some Samsung programs ('debloating' might remove) and had bad experiences with unofficial ROMs when CyanogenMod made a Galaxy Sn unable to call (wrong baseband) and another device alternative ROM, though faster, was less user-friendly. However, since this isn't a phone you have a point--I may as well try something newer--but is Android 11 Galaxy Tab S3 still fast or would one stick with Android 9?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bmwdroid:
Well, I didn't stick and am quite satisfied.

Possible to downgrade anyhow.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] sil3ntgames:
do i check "preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verify" when installing magisk at the end?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] mathematician:
Though I'll probably use LineageOS based on Android 11, I want to try what you described, but I tried SM-T820, SMT820NZSAXAR for model, US, USA for region but SamFirm_Reborn always says 'Could not fetch info for <model>/<region>. Please verify the input or use manaul info.' Same happens for my phone (SM-G970UZBATMB, that or ending on U) which I want to do next...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] bmwdroid:
Have to use samsungs region/provider code not number plate abbreviations.

Great guide, but I'm having a recurring problem. Whenever I return to TWRP (6. CONFIRM DATA ACCESS IN TWRP) I no longer have access to Data. Does anyone have any suggestions? I beleave this is also why I never see Magisk when I reboot to system.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] klaberte:
Please confirm you properly did step 5e "Click Wipe then Format Data (do not just Wipe data)"
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] xdagiveittoya:
I have, yes. Multiple times just to make sure. I've typed "yes" each time to confirm and had access to Data until I've rebooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Guides, News, & Discussion] xdagiveittoya:
Okay, so I was missing/skipping some instructions. I was attempting this with a custom ROM so things worked a little differently.

It turns out that Magisk was installing fine, but returning to TWRP and having access to /data wasn't important for my usage. I just needed to;

- boot to recovery/TWRP

- flash the ROM

- boot to system

- reboot to recovery

- click the Keep Read Only button

- format /data

- install Magisk (which required changing the ".apk" extention to ".zip" when adding it to the SD card)

- boot to system

- run through setup

- then install the Magisk app in system to have root access.

And there we go. All solved now.

I am getting the same error. I also see KG Status as PRENORMAL. When I try to Flash TWRP i get the message "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed." I tried changing the date to various dates ranging between 2017 and 2024. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

*EDIT*

I had to turn on wifi. Connect to internet. Then the OEM Unlocking appeared. I was then able to install TWRP.

I rooted my phone a while ago and have now screwed something up on it. It keeps saying ISM service unavailable...every 2 seconds no matter what I try.
