Cant Have Any Custome Roms - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cannot seem to install any custom roms. I have sm-t705 and have twrp 2.8.7 installed. I have tried to install cyanogen mod for the sm-700 on it, but it says partitioning system image unconditionally. I have also tried to install a pacman rom, but for the sm-t705 version for my tablet twrp says that this device is klimtwifi but actually it isnt because there is not twrp for sm-t705. when I try to install the sm-700 version of the pacman rom it says blkdiscard. Someone please help me. Help is much appreciated!

You're wrong, there is twrp for the T705 and has been for many months.
If you hadn't ignored my reply to your other post you'd have known this.
You will find it in the development section. I suggest you use that one.

Can't install any Rom except for stock

When I try to install a rom it wont install system files it skips over them only to extract some apps which means no bootup.
Any suggestions?
I've tried to install stock and then wipe and then install a rom and i still get same result however sometimes when i flash stock with odin i get fail at the very end whether it be for HLOS file or modem...
I think i can fix this if i wipe my partitions and get them partitioned again.. or maybe one of Odin's tick marks could help??
:crying:
please help
I'll probably sell this phone
More information is needed. What version of stock are you running? Are you rooting your phone? Are you installing a custom recovery? Which custom recovery are you using? Name at least one rom other then stock you've tried to install and how you tried to install it. I would guess no one has responded because they don't have the information needed to give you the help you are asking for.

Im having the same problem too I cant seem to install no rom other then the backup of my Stouck MDL...I tired installing wicked rom and of course it got stuck at the Samsung screen and i did everything when it came to wiping it ....sooo the i tried insane KItKat and that to as well got stuck on boot and im on the latest TWRP 2.7.0.1 recovery running MDL stock
I've tried to install with CWM Recovery by OUDSH and TWRP and no luck I've tried installing WickedRom Hyperdrive and GE by Kot49H I can only install stock with Odin and the reason its not installing is because its avoiding the extraction of system files to the phone.

[Q] Not a V500 (it's a palman) G.Pad 8.3 v500d

Yoh Guys,
so i just bought the G-Pad 8.3 about 6 Months ago or so. Yesterday i decided to flash a custom rom
and with hours of searching i managed to install the latest TWRP 2.8.0.1. So everytime i enter recovery
it says:
Secure booting Error!
Cause : Device Unlock!, so Boot Success!!!
Then i'll hv to wait for about 2-3 seconds untill it gets me to the TWRP recovery. Is it normal?
So i moved the custom roms (mahdi, cm infected, A.I.C.P and latest gapps to my SD-Card). Since then
I was trying to install the custom roms but it says that my device is a "palman" and no "v500".
Any1 knows whats the problem or why I can't flash custom roms?
I googled it already but it seems that only 1 person had the same problem.
Regards and thx in advance.
p.s. I'm running the latest Android Version (4.4.2) for this device.
Maybe you installed the v510 GPE (palman) TWRP on your v500? If you did that, then flash the correct TWRP.

[RECOVERY] [TWRP 2.8.0.0] [v500] [9-11-2014]
Thx a lot for the link m8! All the research I did on finding the latest TWRP was always for the palman even they said its for the V500 which caused me the problem with the recovery. I flashed the recovery in the link u gave me and flashed philiz right away. Now everything's smooth and works like a charm (running A.I.C.P btw). Do u know any other active projects besides A.I.C.P. and CM Infected which is worth testing/using?
I'm running stock 4.4.2 and havent tried anything else. I'm just going to wait and hope someone ports Lollipop 5.0 from the v510 to the v500.

SGH-I747 - 4.4.2 Soft Bricked after trying to update

Hi all,
I am new here and I am having trouble with my Galaxy 3 SGH-I747 from at&t
I rooted the phone using KingoRoot and everything was fine.
I used the phone for about a week and decided to update from kitkat 4.4.2 to lolipop 5.0.
I have a micromax phone that is rooted and I didnt have any trouble updating it while it was rooted, so i figured it wouldnt be a problem but when I updated the s3 it said update failed at 94% and started rebooting and got stuck in an update loop.
I searched and searched and tried finding recovery options using odin but I cant find a 4.4.2 stock firmware, and cant find much information on recovering my device.
I am unable to boot in to recovery. I cant find a link for the SGH-I747 to philz recovery, the links all seem to be dead.
I can boot in to download mode.
I want to install a custom recovery via ODIN but i cant find one for my phone.
After I install the custom recovery, how will i know which stock OS my phone is currently at
I appreciate any advice you can give me, thanks.
Use TWRP for custom recovery. CWM and Philz haven't been updated in quite a while. You can get odin flashable tars from here.
Flashing TWRP should get you to working recovery, and you can find the rom zips you need to get back up and running in the development section here.
Unrooted stock will overwrite TWRP with stock recovery upon boot. Depending on how far your phone is getting into the booting process that might happen if you let odin auto-reboot. Your best bet is to uncheck auto-reboot in odin, so it won't restart on you automatically. Upon success remove the USB cable and pull battery. Replace battery and boot straight to recovery by holding home+vol up+power until you see tiny blue text in the upper left corner then releasing.
Thankyou! i was able to install the recovery by TWRP.
I just need to figure out what firmware to install and where I can get it... I was on kitkat, I tried to update to lollipop but it didnt work. My phone is bricked so I dont know how i would see the firmware version on it.
I really just want any kind of stable firmware that is rooted. Any ideas where I could find one? I'm trying to sift through the forums
Lots of ROMs are available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/development

I appreciate all the help - It seemed really hard because I was finding roms and flashing with ODIN but it always failed TWRP is giving me results. I flashed slimkat and got my phone working again! the only problem is my sound is a bit junky, idk why.
I plan on trying out Octos - M, because I heard marshmallow OS has a lot better battery life among other things
If i upgrade to a custom marshmallow OS, is there any coming back to a former custom OS like 4.4.2? or is it a permanent upgrade?
Do you guys recommend any custom OS? I need something stable, that uses the resources efficiently.
Before flashing additional ROMs, make sure the phone is running the latest bootloader and modem.
To verify the installed bootloader and modem, install the Samsung Phone Info app from the Play store.
With a custom ROM, you can flash from one to another, usually without any issues as long as you perform a complete wipe (system, data, cache) before flashing a new ROM. If you are upgrading an existing custom ROM with a newer custom ROM (e.g. CM12.1 2016-01-01 nightly to CM12.1 2016-01-02 nightly), you can just flash the updated ROM over the existing ROM.

Can't flash a rom on twrp 2.6.3.0

So, I try to flash a ROM on my gt-I9195 but then when I swipe to confirm the flash, it reboots to the TWRP appearing some weird colours, and then I can't install any custom ROM .
I don't know why I can't install any ROM, please help me !
You can't flash CM11 with Twrp recovery. In the TWRP thread the Dev said 'Do not flash cm-11 roms with the current stable version (2.6.3.0) of TWRP. It won't work. I will create new builds for the I9195 and the I-9190 after someone this issue'. Try another recovery CWM If the problem continues the xxxrom.zip maybe currupted. Download the rom again.
