[Q] Please Help Me! Tab 3 10.1 Lost internal storage

I need help really bad!
Excuse me, my english! I'm from Finland.
Here is my problem.
I have less than a month old Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 wi-fi (GT-P5210)
I rooted tab with these instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531784
Everything went fine, with the rooting I mean.
But then, I installed app GL to SD(root) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp&hl=en
After install, I opened GL to SD(root) app. And I intended to move games from internal memory to external microsd.
It informed me something of rebooting, with very poor finnish translate. I accepted and device booted.
After reboot I noticed, that device has difficulties with internal memory. File browser just flashing and in settings->storage just hangs in calculating.
Google play store keeps crashing and when I connect tab to pc it show internal memory size 128Mb (and it should be 16Gb).
I uninstalled GLto SD(root) app, and hope for tab to normalize. But it didn't work. I restored tab to factory settings. But nothing.
My internal memory is gone and I can't install any apps cause Play Store won't work.
Please help me. I need to get this tab working again. How to I recover internal memory back to 16Gb?
Plese help.:crying:

No I haven't. What do you mean with "new" firmware?

I mean like a rom

It wasn't exactly a guide...
It was about 40 emails between dev and me.
There were couple of trys, which didn't take affect.
But with Root explorer, I checked that there is sdcard.backup file in /system/bin/, then
I deleted /system/bin/sdcard and copied sdcard.backup to /system/bin/
Reboot.
It didn't yet make any difference.
Later renamed sdcard - copy.backup to sdcard (which should had done at first place, I think).
Then I installed Terminal emulator and after commandlines:
----------------------------------
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chown root.shell /system/bin/sdcard
chmod 755 /system/bin/sdcard
chcon ubject_r:sdcardd_exec:s0 /system/bin/sdcard
----------------------------------
and Reboot. I finally got it working.
I will not take any responsibility of these instructions.
I was guided by dev of that app which caused problems with my device.
Developer is tnslf2k and he is registered user here on xda-developers forums.
If someone face similar problems,I suggest to turn to developer of problem causing app.
I personally got help fast and I'm verry happy with "customer service".
Im not versed in command line stuff. But can someone advise what these command lines did ?
Does it sound like his "sdcard" path got changed or deleted ? And that made it disappear?
And the command lines restored the path or name ?
Just wondering.
Thanks - glad it got fixed.

Here I did a script for you, it has the same command lines
download and install "rom toolbox lite" then open it then "scripter" then "add" on top right then import the script which is inside the zip file then tap on "fix sd card" then run and execute as root
but this script only works if you have done a back up so do as he said

step 10 problem SOLVED
Figured it out! thnx to @ kentexcitebot
I went through C:\Users\name\.flashTool\firmwares and deleted the "prepared" folder under the folder "firmwares".
That fixed the problem, apparently.
Now device is about to boot.. waiting for boot complete

yes... my bad.. you need to update steps.. as someone else might get same problem.
root access worked properly. :good:
now my problem is xposed installer.. how to install?
tried flashing zip, but device won't boot.
Xposed is not not available for our device yet...Wait until it fixed for our device. .. You can delete all xposed files to get rid on bootloop.
Solution
1. Flash recovery kernel from #1 post
2. Get rid on Xposed bootloop HERE manually : no flash required
I am not being harsh
I am just letting know what is happening, sorry if I sound harsh
already uninstalled xposed.
ok, so finally I manage to get it working,
1st performed clean installation of 5.0.2 ftf
then followed steps 1 to 9
then deleted the "prepared" folder under the folder "firmwares", (If existed).
then followed step 10 & 11.
started device & updated everything.
I got proper root access & everything is working fine :good:
Thank you :good:
Only problem is, cant boot in Recovery now, after everything is done successfully.

You can flash it via Mobile Odin or flash fire

you will need Winrar or 7Zip to complete this
firstly make a copy from the stock ROM
rename the copy and remove the .md5 from it
then opne it with winrar/7zip
Extract BcmCP.img
---------- You extracted the Modem successfully ------------
now its time to make it odin flashable tar
you will need a tool that convert files to tar i use tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.07 ( download it from attachments )
Extract the tar tool
then put the BcmCP.img in the Converter folder
and run ImgToTar.MD5.bat
after 5/3 Minutes you will find a .tar/.tar.md5 in the folder
--------- You converted it successfully ------------
to flash it download odin from attactments
put the Modem .tar in PDA/ AP
power off your phone and press ( volume down - home button - power button )
after the mobile opens in screen like recovery press volume up and connect the mobile to PC and hit start in Odin
when it finishes you'll get Reset/Pass and the mobile will restart
---------- You flashed it successfully --------

I rooted my j6+ with magisk patched boot.img
Im sure you know the steps but just in case,
1. Do a full backup, cz you'll need to reset your device after rooting
2- go to dev options and turn on oem unlock
3- download magisk manager
4- download the rom of your device, extract it, then open ap with 7zip,extract the boot.img.lz4 with 7 zip standard
5- place the boot.img on your j6+
6- open magisk manager, it'll ask you if you want to install, press no thanks.
7- go to magisk settings, scroll down to patched image output format, select img.tar
8- go back to main menu, select install, then select boot.img file, then select the img you placed on your device.
After it finish patching, go to download mode and flash the patched img through Odin.
This worked for me

4- Firstly, downloaded .zip file has many files (AP, CP, BL, HOME_CSC). Which file contains 'boot.img.lz4' file and how to extraxt from .md5 file?
5- How to get boot.img from boot.img.lz4 file? Will renaming the file work?
6- Does magisk work on a no-rooted device?
1.Extract the zip, then open ap as zip, copy boot.img.lz4 to desktop
2.download 7 zip standard, it can extract the lz4 archives.
3. After your extract the image, place it on your device

Next question, where to find TWRP recovery for SM-J610F?
---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 PM ----------
I did not try this method. But, i'm gonna do it soon, because i did it from AndroDef's thread.
He already uploaded for ARJ3, but i had ARIM. But, i'm switching back to ARIM and will surely try this method and will share my experience.
There isn't any custom recovery released for this device yet,but i already submitted a request in TwrpBuilder project a month ago, hope they'll do it soon, you can check it here, it's at the buttom (47,it's the 3rd oldest request)
https://twrpbuilder.github.io/downloads/twrp/#tab=inQueue
Also you can check the completed builds to see if the twrp building for the device is finished.

So, it's time to wait then.
How do you remove bloatware?

If you're interested, could you try this out? Just make sure you have the stock firmware to hand in case of any issues.

If it fails (i hope, it won't), it will take me long to setup my device again.

It's a partial success:
SUCCESS
1- Recovery flash is success (odin did not boot into recovery, instead loaded os).
2- After loading android, did a boot into recovery, it loads twrp recovery
FAILURE
3- TWRP recovery does not respond to touch or hardware keys
4- Device keeps booting into twrp recovery
5- Seems to be stuck in recovery mode
Brilliant.................................................................

Reverting to custom recovery, done.
Device is normal again.
A partial success though.
Might be issues with kernel, or something else.....
With your skills and my device, it can be done in a blink of an eye.

I'm pretty sure I can fix the touch issues.
Is ADB functional?

If adb works could you do:
adb pull / tmp/recovery.log

Well if you need custom recovery for xposed, there's xposed module in magisk that can be installed without twrp. I'm already using it and have multiple modules (gravitybox, xprivacy and greenify), all running without problems. For debloating, after your root the device, go to google play and download an app called system app remover, it'll show you all apps on your j6+. Select the apps you want to remove and press uninstall. After uninstallation is done, reboot your device

Sure, but never worked with samsungs. It's my first regular samsung device. Never liked exynos and cortex combo, but it's different.
Last time tried to push recovery.img via adb and it did not work. I have root and root explorer app installed. Where is that log located in system partition. I'm not an skilled linux coder guy but i have serious history with androids and palms.

Could not find /tmp/recovery.
But did find /cache/recovery folder, that contains last_log.1 and last_log.2 files
