Thank you. Love it.

But if i will be asked to install the kernel, where to install the kernel?

Boot or....

Thank you.

Thanks for your method

Magisk V20 and V21 (Canary) have problem with T720 and gives vbmeta error.

Your method makes V21 (Canary) successfully installed as well as ROM up to date.

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:56 PM ----------

Try to install official full ROM (use Frita to grab ROM) and flash with Odin (CSC to wipe everything) and see first.

If everything works as it's supposed to, do everything at first post (flash kernel as boot)

You may need to install Magisk Manager and you may need to run few setup for it.

[kernel] [pie] [9]

After installing [KERNEL] [PIE] [9] LuisKERNEL GTS4LVLT, the tablet appeared in the device manager. But it is not visible in the conductor and nothing can be copied to the micros. Is everything visible in the conductor with the stock carnel. Is this a problem?

I have the same problem. I get the error "The connected device is unable to access data on this device." That seems to be the only problem. I can't move files between the tablet and the PC. I have the 128GB Wifi version. I'm on stock Pie firmware with this kernel and rooted with Magisk v20.0.

Magisk 20.1 update say this:

- [MagiskBoot] Set proper header_size in boot image headers (fix vbmeta error on Samsung devices)

So i will not need to flash your custom VBMeta image in twrp anymore?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] grävling:
Today Magisk Manager informed me that there is a Magisk Update available (I have 20.0 installed, latest is 20.1.) and a Magisk Manager Update Available (installed is 7.3.5 latest is 7.4.0). The last time I used Magisk Manager to update my Magisk I ended up with a non-booting system due to the vbmeta error. Does the message in the changenotes:

- [MagiskBoot] Set proper header_size in boot image headers (fix vbmeta error on Samsung devices)

mean that I can go back to using Magisk Manager?

Also, here is a work around for the file transfer problem assuming you have wifi access.

The x-plore file manager from Google Play see: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore has a large number of ways you can share files between your tablet and your pc, including my favourite, which is to mount the pc's files as a filesystem on your android device. Instructions here: http://www.lonelycatgames.com/wiki/xplore/ssh#ssh_file_transfer_sftp I have no connection with Lonely Cat software aside from being a beta-tester of new features, and an extremely happy user of this program for nearly a decade now (since my first smartphone, the original Samsung Galaxy gt-i9000 was new). All of the filesharing features are one-time-pay freemium, not available with the free version of the app -- you will have to donate some beers with the donate button before it will work. I did this so long ago, so many devices ago, that I forget how many beers are needed.

WIFi and LTE not working

First of all thank you for your work!!!

Unfortunately yesterday I mad a stupid mistake an flashed the LOS16WiFi Image on the gts4lvlte, without making a backup before. So exactly I made two mistakes.

The tablet boots, but WiFi an LTE are not working.

After reading a lot of posts , im still confused about

Does after flashing this kernel means i will lose ability to transfer files from pc only or also losing driver support in odin

would also I be unable to flash new stock rom updates back via odin

till new version of kernel fixes it and i would be stuck with the firmware ?

2. As per root 0.2 method without twrp i am rooted

F2FS support?

Hi [MENTION=8258181]8224Freak[/MENTION],

first thanks for your work, installed your RR (which includes your kernel) few days ago and my tablet now runs great!

Only issue is I cannot read my microsd cards formatted in F2FS (flash friendly file system) which I use for quite some years with various devices.

Indeed I saw in https://github.com/FraEgg/android_k...s-los/arch/arm64/configs/gts4lvwifi_defconfig that support for this filesystem is disabled in your kernel,

could you enable it please? so that it can be automatically propagated to your RR builds

It just needs adding these lines to defconfig

CONFIG_F2FS_FS=y
CONFIG_F2FS_FS_SECURITY=y

and maybe other things from https://github.com/FraEgg/android_kernel_samsung_sdm670/blob/pie-luis-los/fs/f2fs/Kconfig

I'll let you judge

again, thanks!

I never did it myself, but I found that advice on the TWRP page of this device:

https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxytabs5ewifi.html

"You are therefore strongly advised to first root your device with Magisk and then pre-root a TWRP image before flashing it to recovery."

I'm just gathering information, so I don't know the exact procedure.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Handeman707:
I just did this by pre-rooted the TWRP by using the official TWRP app by Google Play Apps, but after that I see indeed the TWRP showing up, but after that when boot up by system. I went stuck on after boot screen... " black screen", Samsung logo don't show up anymore...

So I flashrd "Magsik_patched" trough Odin and everything was working "normal" again.

But no working TWRP.....

[MENTION=6773321]TiTiB[/MENTION]

Hello bro. I know you have great experience in rooting S5e Tab. I still hesitate to do it because I don't have much experience with rooting Samsung devices. Actually, I'm bit scared reading of all people's issues here and there... So I'd like to ask few questions and if you'd be so kind to answer, I'd be very grateful :)

1. Do you use or have used Luis kernel? If yes, does it present any issues interrupting daily use? I know about PC connection issue and I'm not sure if it's been resolved yet. I see this kernel was updated several times (latest update from May), but I didn't find straightforward answer if this issue is resolved. This kernel seems to good way to introduce root, but too many uncertainties :o

2. If I'm going to flash TWRP, is it better to do it BEFORE rooting with Magisk (but after flashing VBMeta with Odin), like suggested in the OP here, or should I root the tablet following AHE_XDA's tutorial and only then try to introduce TWRP?

3. Is it necessary/important/helpful to pre-root TWRP image with Magisk before flashing it, like suggested here: https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxytabs5ewifi.html ? I don't find any other mention of this method on XDA, but it is strongly recommended on the official TWRP site...

Thank you in advance for your patience with noob :cyclops:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] TiTiB:
1. I've only used LOS 15.1 and its default everything. FWIW, I've used, and, loved Luis's ROMs on other devices in the past.

2. I followed AHE_XDA's tutorial exactly (I helped him write/test it), so I added TWRP *after* Magisk root.

3. iirc, and that is definitely questionable, I used the TWRP app (the only time I've used it, I think) to test it so we could then recommend an easy TWRP install method to others. Not sure if this made it to the thread though.

All in all, if you follow the guide *exactly* you shouldn't have any problems. But if you do, there are also instructions to go back to stock; which I had to do 3 or 4 times during the testing phase.

I've rooted 5 different Samsung devices and am of the opinion that it's *very* unlikely that you'll brick your S5e. And I use the term "brick" in the way it is meant to be used; render your device completely unrecoverable/dead "As useful as a brick". BTW, there is no such a thing as "soft brick". It's like someone being "kinda dead"; you either are, or are not.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Lord Sithek:
Thanks a lot for your answer. Yea, I think I'll just follow the main root instruction and will give a thought to TWRP only then - if it is really necessary in my case... Yesterday I've read all the "Root instructions" thread and I encountered Extall's method with TWRP App (I think this is what you meant) and sounds promising.

If you don't mind, I would have just two more minor questions, just to make sure :)

1. Assuming I'm rooted without TWRP, if ever something goes wrong and I'm stuck on bootloop, what should I do to recover without loosing all data? Should I flash in Odin magisk_patched.tar prepared during the rooting process and that's all?

2. Have you ever tried to update the stock rom after rooting without erasing user data? I saw somewhere brief instruction on how to do it, but I want to make sure if it is safe and you seems to me competent guy to ask this question :D

Thanks again!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] MikyMuch:
The performance is beter compared to the stock kernel, but I found this bugs:

1. The tablet screen does not turn off when closing the cover.

2. Sometimes the system ui process stops working.

One sugestion, adding the possibility to overclock would be great for gaming I know the tablet is not designed for gaming but the temperatures are great.

Anyways, excelent work and thank you.

Edit: I use magisk 20.4 with busybox and fde.ai app, without fde.ai the system ui doesn't almost crash.
