TWRP problem - ROM install - Samsung Galaxy Tab S SM-T705 - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
(Sorry for posting here, I can't post to the rom's topic...less than 10 posts...)
I'm trying to install this rom: [ROM][LOLLIPOP 5.1][UNOFFICIAL] Cyanogenmod: cm-12.1 for SM-T705 16gb
1. First of all, i made a backup with TWRP + I have the stock 5.0.2 Lollipop image download if I need to revert to that.
2. I've flashed the modem.bin file with Odin.
3. Booted into recovery, did a factory reset.
4. Then I've tried to install the rom, but it says that it's not for the LTE version (SM-T705), but for the wifi only version.
So the question is: is this because of a wrong version of TWRP? If not, what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance!

My bad, installed a TRWP on top of the one that came with cfroot... sorry. Now it's fine.

[Q] Root help!!

Hi
Total newbie here, and i have read the other posts and tried to fathom this out for myself, but am a tad lost.
I have a p600 uk version.
1. I understand you need to install the stock recovery file using Odin after you have installed the cfauto root file.
2. What is the stock recovery file?
3. The version i downloaded appears to be stockrecoverytarmj4: but the firmware version my note is on is vMJ6 (Uk version) - does that mean i will in effect be downgrading my note from v6 to v4?
4. Also - if i wanted to update my stock firmware to the latest version (i beleive its ML1) do i just ignore the process to install the MJ4.tar and use a tar file for ML1.
5. If 4 is correct -where does one find the stock recovery for ML1 that is compatible with p600 (Uk edition)
I hope i dont upset anyone with the stupidity of my questions, but im not the most techy of individuals and i dont want to brick a £500 device!
thanks for the help in advance

Quick Replies :
1. You only need to re-flash back a stock recovery if you are not going to install a custom recovery TWRP for us now & install a custom rom afterwards , also ChainFire Auto root will not overcome your stock recovery , download from here http://download.chainfire.eu/378/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-lt03wifi-lt03wifixx-smp600.zip .

KitKat 4.4 unmoded needed

Hello, I wanted to root and install TWRP then a KitKat ROM that's NOT altered or one that's been running and is a proven daily ROM. I haven't messed with Roms or phones for some time so I got all the info I need up to the ROM and I cant seem to find a stock rom. Any ideas?
Thanks!

This is the latest NE1 4.4 stock firmware (france) from sammobile uploaded to a different host by an user for faster download speeds,extract the zip file you'll find a .tar.md5 file flash it via ODIN.Then you can just install custom recovery via pc odin (use philz 6.26 ot 6.41 initially and once you get a custom recovery successfully installed you can switch to twrp) now once into philz recovery flash supersu 1.99 from this post flash it right after you flash your recovery ,your phone should be rooted.Few things that you need to do is uncheck auto reboot in odin when flashing the recovery,after flashing philz you should manually enter it by pressing the right combination of buttons ( volume up + home + power) and then flash the supersup 1.99 zip file right away. (place the supersu zip file in sd card right after you flash the 4.4 ROM and before you proceed to install custom recovery)
Philz touch
twrp
NE 1 Stock France

singhpratik87, I'm a little unclear on the sequence your proposing me to go through to install a ROM. I thought you installed;
1) Superuser ...... Done!
2) ODIN Custom Recovery (TWRP) ...... Done!
3) NE1 4.4 ROM ..... Downloaded moved to phone but not installed...
Ok here are my concerns, I'm on a AT&T 1317 phone will this ROM work OR would a custom ROM be better? Next, what is Philz touch?
Thanks,
Soggy

See you didn't mention that you were on AT&T,unfortunately it wouldn't work you got to wait for your carrier to release the update. My explanations were pretty straight forward but now it doesn't matter anymore since you don't have the international note II GT N7100. The rom was supposed to be flashed via ODIN not SD CARD (it's a stock rom not a custom rom).And the steps are (for future reference) flash stock rom via odin, then flash philz via odin(uncheck auto reboot in odin),manually enter into recovery mode , flash supersu 1.99(or whichever is the latest) , reboot phone , DONE.
Philz touch is another popular recovery used by note II users .it's based on CWM with advanced features.
singhpratik87..... What custom ROM out there is equivalent to the 4.4 kitkat for a AT&T I317 Note 2 running 4.3? Those would prob be better anyway....
Also this other recovery you mention is it better? Like I said I have been out of messing with phones for a few years Thanks!

None in the International Note II forum that would be compatible with AT&T as far as 4.4.2 is concerned.There's no development for 4.4.2 in your a&t note II thread?
why don't you check out this thread which is specifically for your at&t branded note 2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2-att/development

[Q] SPH-L900: CM10.1.3 CWM recovery over 4.4.2 stock

Hello guys!
There's a problem here.
I have Sprint Galaxy Note II SPH-L900. What I did:
1. Flashed stock 4.4.2 via Odin over stock 4.3.
2. Rooted via Odin.
3. Installed CWM via ROM Manager.
4. Flashed CM10.1.3-L900 (based on 4.2.2) + appropriate PA GApps via CWM. I don't like CM11 after 10.1.
Device hangs on boot splash (rotating ring), turns endless. Where's my problem? Is it correct to flash via CWM lower Android FW than previously flashed via Odin/Kies higher one?
And one more question. Is it possible to recover via CWM Stock 4.1.2 over flashed stock 4.4.2?
The common reason L900 is American Carrier version of Note 2. Since 4.3 stock TouchWiz looks most in English. This is my old age retired buddy's device. He doesn't read English and needs Ukrainian/Russian interface translation. That's why I advised him CM.
Thank you.
UPD. Solved. The problem was I didn't do wipe after flashing the CM10.1.x fw. Now works well.

Any way to root new Tmobile sm-p607t 5.1.1 firmware?

I just installed the newest firmware for my sm-p607t, which is android 5.1.1. i have tried all auto root methods like cf auto root,kingroot, etc etc. with no luck. I really need root for half my apps i use need it. Is there any way to get root on this newest firmware? It seems like this tablet has been forgotten about and no one seems interested in it anymore.
Maybe you need a permissive kernel like was needed for note 4 5.1.1 firmware..
No clue, but for the life of me I can't get TWRP to stick. As soon as It boots up it reverts back to stock recovery
Can you try to install twrp by odin first? Then you should be able to flash the root zip file.
twrp seems to be for android 4.4 still for the sm-p607t, also just tried it and it wont work either.
I didn't know there was another way to flash Twrp w/out Odin. , I tried flashing TWRP and it says it's flashes successful but Twrp doesn't stick. I suspect that Twrp does work it just gets over written. This also happens on Nexus with stock rom, although with bootloader you can boot directly into recovery, and flash zip and install rom or block stock recovery from sticking
Deleted.
DISCLAIMER: Try this on tour own risk, I am not responsible for fried tablets. Always backup.
At this time there is no root for the new t-mobile 5.11 firmware.
Also on Europe and Asia the P605 lte model of this tablet had the 5.1.1 update and have the same problem.
With this procedure you will have the updated 5.1.1 bootloader,baseband and the most important, root.
But with a 5.02 custom ROM.
The ROM is a port from the P905, galaxy Note Pro 12.2 lte, with added features and the magazine launcher.
This was my ROM before upgrading to 5.1.1.
After checking out the new stock t-mobile 5.1.1 firmware, honestly I was not impressed.
There are 3 small fixes on the ROM's thread, plus search on xda for the stagefright fix and you will have
a perfectly working full featured ROM.
Thanks to Alan-B, the developer.
Flashed the new P607T 5.1.1 firmware with Odin 3.09.
Boot OK and let it alone for 10 minutes. Reboot twice.
Back to download mode.
Flashed TWRP 2.8.6.0-lt03ltexx-4.4 with Odin.
This version of TWRP works OK, it is slow to
start up, but works.
Read that newer versions are having some issues.
Then flashed the Supersu 2.46 zip with TWRP.
Did 3 factory resets and wipe 3 times dalvik, data, system, and cache.
Then flash the zip of the P605 ver. 0.09 Pyrana ROM from the note 10.1 2014 ed. Development section.
Only Roms for the P605 lte tablet are compatible with the P607T.
For me the stock rom bootloops after flashing
Supersu 2.46 with Odin, so better have ready on
the sd card ver 0.09 of the 5.02 Pyrana custom rom.
Flashed it and my P607T boot up OK.
Ver. 0.11 of this ROM did not boot on my tablet,
even after flashing with Odin the boot.img, provided on the OP,
so stick with ver. 0.09 + the fixes.
So far, TWRP 2.8.6.0 recovery and my P607T working perfectly.
so you have Pyrana rom and root? or you have found this method to gain root to the official p607t firmware? (t-mobile android version 5.1.1) Because im seeking the official stock rom with touchwiz plus root. or if someone who can build a stocky rom + root.
The official P607T 5.1.1 firmware bootloops after
flashing supersu 2.46. Not sure if the reason is TWRP 2.8.6.0 or the supersu 2.46 zip not being
compatible with the 5.1.1 stock rom.
Will be good to try supersu 2.49 beta.
After bootlooping my last resource was going back to TWRP and flash the P605 Pyrana ROM.
Prefer to have updated 5.1.1 baseband and root with the 5.02 Pyrana rom than the full stock 5.1.1 rom without root.

same .... Pending a solution boot compatible !!!.
I tried the instructions on Post 144 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...3215876/page15
It works without doing Step 1 (i.e. on the Stock Tmobile ROM)! All credit goes to @bluecat for doing the work and @M3r71n0 for the English translation!
@sandibhatt - This link is not working for me. Were you able to root 5.1.1? If so can you please re-post a valid link or some instructions? Thank you in advance for your help.

SHORT SUMMARY FOR ROOT AND RECOVERY MOD FOR FIRMWARE P605XXU1EOI5
TRIP KNOX - TRIP KNOX - TRIP KNOX
1) Download firmware NEE-P605XXU1EOI5 (PDA: P605XXU1EOI5 CSC: P605OXAEOI5 CHANGELIST: 5849447 BUILD DATE: 19.09.2015) [Thanks @Rivendel]
2) Download Kernel with ramdisk mod [Thanks @Blue cat and @Chainfire]
3) Download TWRP-2.8.6.0-lt03ltexx [Thanks teamwin-TWRP]
4) Download BETA SuperSU v2.50 [Thanks @Chainfire]
5) Copy “BETA SuperSU v2.50” in SDCard
6) Flash "Firmware NEE-P605XXU1EOI5" with odin
7) Boot the system/tablet (Probably cannot recognize SIM card/forgets WLAN keys)
8) RE-Flash "Firmware NEE-P605XXU1EOI5" with odin
9) Boot the system/tablet
10) Flash "Kernel with ramdisk mod"
11) Boot the system/tablet
12) (In Odin with Auto Reboot UNCHECK) Flash TWRP-2.8.6.0-lt03ltexx
13) Run system in Recovery and install zip from SDCard "BETA SuperSU v2.50"
14) Boot the system/tablet
End
For those with Wifi or Data issues just reflash your 5.1.1 rom manually until it gets fixed. (Which is basically what steps 1-9 are for)
In short, if you are already on version 5.1.1 do steps 10~14
Exact Step by step:
1. Get into Download Mode
2. Odin Flash the Kernel
3. Reboot and then turn off
4. Go back into Download Mode and flash TWRP Make sure Auto-Reboot is unchecked and after flashing power down manually.
5. Get into recovery using the Button combo. (Note this may take a minute or two for first install)
6. Either Sideload the Beta SuperSU v2.50 or have it on a mSD card or something and flash inside TWRP.
7. Reboot and Enjoy Root!
Also, If you have updated the sofware from T-Mobile (607T) you don't have to reflash the NEE-P605XXU1EOI5 software.
I have been able to get the 5.1.1 installed, updated kernel, SuperSU Beta, and TWRP 2.8.7.0.
Now I keep getting a Security Notice that "unauthorized actions have been detected". I found a suggestion about opening SuperSU and it should fix it, but nothing has worked so far
@sandibhatt & @HermitDash Thank you for your help here guys! This worked perfectly!
problem with root
This root method worked, but did anyone else have an issue with the wifi not storing passwords after reboot?
Possible solutions: tried to find and clear duplicate entries in the wifi config file in the data folder.. but there was no wifi config file.
i have the same issue wifi passwords not storing after wifi on and off or a reboot

Dowgrading from 5.1.1 to 4.4.2 and then installing Note 4 Mini ROM for good

Hi Friends,
I recently flashed French 5.1.1 update on my N3N and rooted through Chainfire's method. File were taken from autoroot chainfire's website. I am facing an issue as listen below:
Once the device is rooted, I download Root checker which says device is rooted. I run some root apps and yes the apps work. However, when I factory reset through the option in settings, the phone kinda hard reset. It optimizes all apps when it does first login which usually doesn't happen when resets. Moreover, once the phone starts, to my surprise, the phone has lost root. None of the rooted files work and root checker says it's not rooted. And then I have to re-root. Why is this happening?
Now, I want to downgrade and install v10 Note 4 mini ROM. May I request the gurus here to guide me. I have installed this ROM on my other N3N and it's working fine, however that phone is on 4.4.2. Will downgrading my lollipop based phone to kitkat cause the phone to brick or something? And the basic procedure to downgrade includes:
1) Install TWRP recovery
2) Wipe cache data etc
3) install Note 4 Mini ROM OR I should first install official KitKat ROM and then wipe it all and install the custom (note 4 mini) ROM.
Would appreciate your help here.
Thanks.
First of all NEVER factory reset your Rooted Phone unless it is unrooted otherwise you will always face this type of problem.
Samsung device is Hard to brick so just flash your 4.4.2 kitkat desired country Firmware using odin and enjoy

Thanks shyboy for your reply. In one of the threads, I figure out CF autoroot was partially running. It did not give complete root access to the phone and hence the problem arise. I installed TWRP redovery and copied latest SuperSU in the sdcard. Then through TWRP, I flashed latest SuperSU and voila, I had my phone fully rooted.

BDW, what if I want to come to official Lollipop 5.1.1 over my Note 4 mini ROM. Should I just ODIN the official 5.1.1 firmware or do I need to first wipe it through TWRP and then flash the official ROM?
Sorry if I am bothering you. Just wanted to know.
make a backup of your internal sd card
1. boot in recovery mode
2. wipe all (data and system)
3. power off (pull out battery)
4. power on in download mode ( "Vol-" + "Home" + "Power button")
5. flash stock 4.4.2 via odin e perform the first boot.
6. boot in download mode, flash cf autoroot and reboot
7. flash the recovery you want (kitkat version)
8. enjoy

Suppose brother you are on 4.4.2 base firmware and you are flashing Note4 mini rom you can take backup using twrp recovery, and can flash S5 custom rom for N3N which has base firmware of 4.4.2 but if you want to flash new Version of RoM 5.1.1 you have to use odin then i think you cant use Note4mini rom because it is based on kitkat hope it helped
just press thanks button rather than a reply

You can downgrade to KitKat. There is a thread on the forum who talks about that.
Please help with the reference link.

I don't know whether you have done it or not. But if not, beware, there is a risk of losing imei while downgrading from 5.1.1 to lower versions. I would suggest making a EFS backup first. By doing that you can restore your IMEI in case you lose it.
Download EFS backup apps from google play store.
