If I try to flash the .tar.md5, Odin gets stuck at recovery.img. After a few minutes the following error message occures:

<ID:0/004> recovery.img

<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I do have the Samsung USB Drivers installed and Odin detects my Device. Already tried different USB C cables without success.

I use the Model T510XXU2ASI4, August Software Release.

Do you know a solution or is there anything else I can try?

Thanks in advance!

I just updated the TWRP build for the SM-T515 to the latest OEM release for which we have kernel source (T515XXU1ASH6). Unfortunately, Samsung still hasn't posted source yet for the September 2019 Update (T515XXU2ASI5).

Update (11/11): They just posted kernel source for T515XXU2ASI5, so stand by for another SM-T515 build.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] JOHNWASBORN:
Is my phone dead?

My SM-T515 is not working anymore. I installed your unofficial recovery v3.3.1-3 and now my tablet just gets stuck on the Twrp Logo. When i hard reset it, it just takes me back to the corrupt twrp. I tried to root my device using your recovery but alas My tablet is stuck in a loop where i am not even able to boot the OS!!!. PLEASE HELP ME:crying::crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] massivekind:
I would start over :fingers-crossed: https://samfrew.com/model/SM-T515/ flash the stock image and start over. Your tablet is not bricket or anything.

stuck on samsung boot

Using twrp 3.3.1-5 doesn't seem to work for my sm-t515 using T515XXU2ASI5 firmware. I had a lot of successes with t510 on T510XXU2ASI4 but using the same technique with a t515 leaves me hanging in a bootloop, stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy Tab A Secured by Knox Powered by Android" and the yellow unsafe bootloader triangle on the bottom screen. Did you guys make it work? Thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Magendanz:
Unless someone wants to send me a SM-T515, I'm afraid that I'm going to have to drop support for it. I'm simply unable to troubleshoot on a device that I don't have.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] 7Nanashi4:
I am stuck with the flashing SAMSUNG screen!

What happened:

I tried to flash TWRP to root with magisk without sufficient knowledge and got stuck. Last advice from Magendanz was, that I download the original OEM firmware and flash it to solve my problems of:

I'm stuck with a loop into Download-Mode and in the left upper corner is this prompt in red letters:

VBMETA: Error verifying vbmeta image: OK_NOT_SIGNED (3)

CUSTOM VBMETA

VBMETA : No sign info

VBMETA ,

I didn't have the time to work further on the tablet so I left it for a few days. And then I was able to break the loop into Download mode just like that. Now I am also able (didn't do anything) to enter the TWRP (Version 3.3.1-1) by holding Power + VOL+ Keys during the restarting process. That didn't work before because I was prior to the Download-Mode loop stuck with a TWRP-Screen loop without any functions ... don't know why it works now. Other than that I'm stuck with a Samsung-Logo-Loop

What should be my next step? I learned from my mistakes and won't just try stuff.

.) Should I still flash the OEM firmware? I found 2 versions:

PDA/AP Version T510XXU1ASEF

CSC Version T510OWO1ASE2

MODEM/CP Version T510XXU1ASEF

Region MXO — Mexico

Build Date 2019-05-27

Changelist 15874928

OS Pie

OS Version 9

----------

PDA/AP Version T510XXS2ASH4

CSC Version T510OWO2ASH1

MODEM/CP Version T510XXS2ASH4

Region MXO — Mexico

Build Date 2019-08-06

Changelist 15874928

OS Pie

OS Version 9

----------

If necessary how can I determine what is the correct version? I installed every update until the end of September. Is that meant with the "build date" or does that mean when I bought the tablet? Still confused with that point ...

.) Should I just wipe the tablet using TWRP?

.) Should I just install Magisk using TWRP?

Hopefully, I described everything good enough.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Just flash original firmware with odin as instructed in one of many guides for your device.

If you can enter download mode you are 99% safe
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Magendanz:
Both the TWRP tarball (.tar..md5) for Odin and update file (.zip) include a vbmeta.img that's just an empty VBMeta struct for AVB 2.0. In order for that to work, however, you've got to disable dm-verity, which is done with the multi-disabler. You really can't skip that step.

If you flash one of my custom ROMs, there's no need to run multi-disabler to disable dm-verity. Those already include a prepatched vendor image.

Just bought a Galaxy Tab 10A 2019 version and as always first thing I do is root my device.

Downloaded odin (you should put a link in this forum)

Downloaded TWRP md5 file

Launched Odin and selected md5 file and clicked start

Failed by throwing an md5 error binary is invalid error (fixed by redodwnloading and running odin as administrator)

Tried again loaded the md5 file into the AP selection clicked start and now get on the device "Only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed(BOOT)

I've been doing this since before the Nexus One so I'm no newbie but these instructions could be much better. Anyway I'm stuck and I am unable to flash TWRP. USB debugging is enabled after I did the unlock of the device as well.

I think I got it, i relocked it and unlocked it again and did the 7 day trick rebooted and was able to flash the Nexus custom ROM which includes TWRP. Not sure if that had something to do with it or not but it appears to be working and it's going through the boot up process.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] redhonker:
[MENTION=903232]Magendanz[/MENTION]

Thanks for the page. May I suggest one modification on the instruction?

For a newbie, we will click on Wipe and then swipe to do reset. But this will leave the partition encrypted and result in error accessing it after reboot. It would be easier for a newbie to see "Wipe -> Format Data" or alike.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Magendanz:
Done. I'd forgotten that the regular factory reset preserves /data/media, and so won't truly reformat the userdata partition.

lock bootloader again

Thanks for such a great work. I managed to install twrp and even I am root now. Just I want to ask you, when all the work is done is it posible to remove the 'booting' warning about the unlock bootloader?

If I re-lock the bootloader is booting in 'download mode' with a error message about verifying vbmeta image, and then I must start the process since the begining.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Skyfire1:
Thank you very much for your efforts!

Is there a way to remove the warning sign on boot? I rember something from my galaxy s3 named triangle away or so...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mbsans:
Hi all, first thank you for making possible to root this tablet. I have SM-T510, latest update.

However for the life of me I cannot install twrp. I have unlocked bootloader, I wiped data/factory reset, immediately booted to download mode, have Odin up and running, but it fails with message unverified binaries, even though I tried a few times. I'm almost giving up.

What else can I try?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Skyfire1:
I assume the firmware is to new and only the older version is supported. I made sure NOT to update because it might cause problems.

" Custom kernels are specific to OEM releases, and rely on the latest posted kernel source (T510XXU2ASI4 & T515XXU2ASI5) "

Please discribe your problem in detail.

My tab a came with firmware PPR1.180616.011.XXU2ASI4 and works fine with twrp-3.3.1-5-T510XXU2ASI4-20191019.tar.md5.

Although I ran into some problems too. Flashing with Odin stopped short of completion. I don´t know what I did to make it work but It might have been renameing twrp-3.3.1-5-T510XXU2ASI4-20191019.tar.md5 to twrp-3.3.1-5-T510XXU2ASI4-20191019.tar by deleting.md5.

But I am not sure. It was late in the evening after a day of hard work so don´t make fun of me :)

Please discribe your problem in detail so we can help you!

I think I did it this way :

1. shut down Tablet and disconnect from pc,

2. start odin and load twrp, check ap mode in odin, go to options and uncheck auto reboot,

3. push volume up and down simultaneously and connect tablet to pc while pressing the volume buttons.

now it should start and you can let go of the buttons and press start in odin...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mbsans:
Yay, it's working now. Thanks a lot Skyfire1 !! :):angel::)

All I had to do was to rename the TWRP filename, remove .md5 from its name, just leave the .tar extension. That's all. I followed the rest if the instructions to the T, no issues.

Now if we can get rid of that nagging notification banner during boot-up that says that "Our tablet are not safe anymore to store files, and so on", even though it times out after 10 secs, it'd be great.

Just to let others know that with my specs below, everything is working fine.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] 0KimT1:
My build number is T510XXS2ASK1 (security patch 1 november 2019) but will this work?

Or do i need to downgrade? OR alternatively can i just wait a while? Is there even a point in waiting?

If i downgrade to T510XXU2ASI4 and flash twrp + magisk, then the latest posted kernel source gets updated to T510XXS2ASK1 and beyond, is there a way for me to update to that without losing any data?

Also I read on a comment on page 14 that i need to wipe data on stock recovery BEFORE flashing twrp, which isn't mentioned in ur instructions.

Should i do this? Wouldn't wiping beforehand revert my oem unlocking and usb debugging options to off, thus preventing me from flashing twrp? Or do i just have to reenable these options before proceeding to flash twrp?

++Whats the android_device_samsung_gta3xlwifi file u linked at the bottom of the original post?

Apologies for my lack of knowledge. I regularly mess around w twrp, magisk and custom roms on my galaxy S8 but its a whole lot less complicated than with the tab A!

[NFC Hacking] Arcx:
Hey everyone,

I know, there are a lot of similar threads, but most of them are device specific.

I'm looking for a way to read NFC tags when the screen of my phone is off. I tried the Xposed module called "NFC LockScreenOff Enabler" on my OnePlus 3T running LineageOS 16 with Magisk, Riru Core and EdXposed, but it's somewhat unstable. Sometimes, the phone reads NFC tags while the screen is off, sometimes it doesn't. Moreover, my phone becomes unresponsive after a short time. Apps take ages to start, even the settings won't show for minutes... My brother tried the module on his Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195I) running LineageOS 14.1 with the original Xposed-Framework by Rovo89. His phone doesn't read the tags at all while the screen is off (and yes, both of us changed the settings of the module to read tags with screen off), although, his phone doesn't become unresponsive.

Since the modules last update was 2014 and I guess it's not compatible with newer Android versions, I wanted to ask if anyone has an idea how to keep NFC alive even when the phone screen is off?

There are tutorials on how to mod the NfcNci.apk, but they are all for Android versions 5 or 6 :/
[NFC Hacking] Dogan1995:
Hi,

I am using cards emulator (playstore), which needs root and xposed.

Having this app enabled in xposed allows to activate "enable nfc when screen is off" option.

This app is designed to emulate cards, but that option to enable nfc while screen is off might work for you, just try it out.

I am using the paid version of this app as i need it, works well on my pixel 3 xl on latest android 9.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] 20mar:
Weird sound when hitting the back, specifically around the camera this sound is generated, someone else happens to this
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] ccplazza:
Yes, the camera has optical image stabilisation (OIS). This allows camera to physically move. When you tap the phone you will hear the camera moving. This is normal.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] SixPaths:
No, this phone is only have EIS. OIS is too expensive to be implemented into this phone.

And yes, I also experience this weird noise when there's a bump on the top back cover. Don't know what cause this though
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Pilovali:
Perhaps the vibration motor? I have the same sound.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] ccplazza:
Oh ok. I saw a teardown video and the camera did move in it's socket when it was touched. So I still think it's the camera shaking that is making that noise.

All previous phones that i've owned had OIS, and they made the exact same faint 'tick' sound near the camera when phone was bumped.

But i guess it could also be the vibration motor, since it's close by the cameras.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] amrazing33:
It can't be OIS, can it? I don't notice any stabilization in photo mode and in video mode the stabilization feels like that of EIS

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] wizzi:
Is it possible to use the existing hardware within the TyTNII for receiving FM radio signals? Surely it'd be a case of utilising the same hardware used for WiFi (802.11x = 2.4GHz), but at a lower frequency (FM 88.0MHz-108.0MHz)..

I was disappointed that FM radio was not an included feature of the TyTNII, however I'm happy with just about everything else about it. The only comparable phone that I was considering is the Eten X500+ glofiish which does have FM radio.

If there is already an FM radio application, please hook me up.

Regards,

Scott.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] XtreMe_G:
if it was simply the case of utilizing the same hardware.......then surely, every single ppc with wifi could be modded to receive fm radio signal. holy cow, you know what i realized, my laptop has wifi too! i'm sooo gonna mod it to receive fm radio
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KaiserVideoDriver:
just because they use the same term "radio frequency" doesn't always mean that they're interchangeable. so let's review this... since TyTn II has WiFi radio chip is there any software to turn it into:

satellite dish receiver?

citizen band transceiver?

(hd)tv tuner?

microwave oven?

fm radio? ... maybe not

bluetooth - there's a dedicated component/module for this

GPS - there's a dedicated component/module for this

but who knows if there was a disabled chip that can potentially be activated (as long as the hardware is there and accessible), there might be possibilities
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] internetadam4657:
one word: SEARCH!

there is a LONG thread on this in one of the kaiser sections which has long been buried which has determined that the kaiser does not have the proper hardware to receive FM radio signals. the touch cruise can receive them IIRC but the kaiser cannot due to the lack of a needed chip.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
Threads like this should be closed the second they are posted. Sorry if i sound like a know it all, but i am a amateur radio operator, hence I have alo't of experience in the radio field. Using a modulated 2.4ghz transciever in impossible to re-modulate it to the am/fm bands. it just wont work.

second. you have to have a on board antenna and a tuner that is resonant on those freq's and the kaiser/tilt does not.

Third. Dutty has been tinkering on a idea of getting it to work, and following what he is thinking it might work, however the reception most likely will be limited.

Fourth. If a radio is such a big deal then buy a am/fm portable radio, or buy a sony w580i,

Fifth. SEARCH, there are plenty of threads regarding this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dwcliff703:
