Whats up lads,
so I just rooted and wiped my Tab S 8.4 but it's being weird when it comes to flashing.
I actually have the T705Y Version, the LTE Version(Australian, if it matters). But when I try to flash a Rom for the T705 Version it gives me this error:
This package is for device: klimtlte; this device is klimtwifi
However if I flash a rom that's designed for the T700(wifi) version it gets stuck during the installation on this error:
Patching system image unconditionally
Tried with several roms. Please help me out of my Rom Limbo! haha
cheers
Flash the right version of twrp for your device.
Are you attempting to flash an aosp rom?

Yeah I think you're right, that should be it. How do I flash the recovery though? I can't get out of the recovery on my tablet so fastboot won't detect it, will it?
If the recovery is twrp then extract the image from the TAR, if it's stock recovery then flash with odin.
POWER +HOME +VOL DOWN.

It's TWRP but how do I use the recovery.img file then? I mean I cant flash it, can I?
Yeah that Button Combo just reboots the device and then it gets stuck in the original boot screen, you know the black one that just says Samsung Galaxy Tab S SM-T705Y powered by Android because I have no OS installed
You don't need an os installed to boot to download mode.
You need to hold those 3 buttons until download mode appears.
Download mode will ALWAYS be available unless your device is hard bricked.
You can also boot to Download mode from twrp by selecting the download button.
To flash the recovery.img, as said extract it then select install in twrp then image then recovery.

Different device but same question.
I can reboot via power/vol down which merely hangs on the logo again.
Or I can boot to download mode and use Odin to re-flash the stock rom yet again (with the same result.)
But I can't figure out how to get into the stock recovery.
Is this not possible on these devices?
edit: ignore, must not have been holding my tongue right.
Vol up + menu + power got me to recovery.
Factory reset got me back to the stock os (for what that's worth.)
HOW TO INSTALL CWM?
Unlock your bootloader else flashing via fastboot will be impossible
Upgrade your phone to the latest available stock rom (to get latest bootloader and baseband firmware)
Download ClockworkMod Recovery for your specific variant
Reboot into your bootloader (Variant 1: adb reboot bootloader, Variant 2: Power down, hold Vol- and Power buttons at same time)
Flash ClockworkMod Recovery via fastboot. (fastboot flash recovery cwm-mate7_YYYYMMDD.img)
Reboot (fastboot reboot)
WHERE TO GET CWM?
MT7-L09: cwm_mate7_20150410.img - 9.43 MB
HOW TO USE CWM?
- First variant: Power off phone, then hold Volume+ and Power Buttons at same time till Honor logo appears
- Second variant: adb reboot recovery

Disregard. Not putting recovery in the right folder. Little mistakes make me lol.
Edit again, this recovery doesn't work for me. I flash it but when trying to get in to it, it just bootloops once then boots up normal.
Do you have the L09 variant?
It works for me, that's strange.

Yes I have the L09. I tried flashing it several times and each time, it bootloops once then boots up normal.
Just use my tool. So you can then flash the custom Rom.

that fixed in comparison with previous builds ?

Can I use your tool without unlocking the bootloader on my MT7-L09?
No, but there will be instructions.
Tried this but failed to install CWM .. seems like all are failing? Is there a certain firmware that the phone needs to be on?
Hi all, i flash cwm_mate7_20150410.img but don't boot in recovery mode.Any idea?
Ciao
looking for CWM touch for Mate7
Hi,
I have a MT7-L09, I unlock bootloader and I installed TWRP but I can't flash anything because I encrypted my phone.
Does this CWM recovery handle mounting encrypted partition?
First time flashing ROMs, installed resurrection remix tryed to install Gapps which failed, yet RR booted up on its own just fine. Then tried to flash a new recovery on it (TWRP 3.0) yet the phone would just never boot up to complete the recovery install. So now i have a phone which wont enter recovery mode and cannot complete the download of the new recovery.
TLDR: Phone wont boot into recovery as ROM is broken so download cant be fixed?
Previous: recovery TWRP 2.6
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-19195
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks
Are you sure that you have flashed the right Recovery for your Phone.
Normally the way is.
Boot into Recovery
Install the Recovery .zip file
Reboot into Recovery.
Reboot into System ( ROM )
Can you post a link where you download the Recovery and which file.

That would only work from TWRP ver 2.8.4, I think you missed he is still on very old TWRP or maybe he edit later , he would have to install with Odin method
@Spec77
If you can boot into download mode you should be able to flash new recovery with Odin method (NOT use zip file).
As Bierma suggests maybe you flashed wrong TWRP does your phone have another letter and after gt-19195 if so it is a different phone & you need different TWRP. Or maybe you just tapped wrong link.

This way works also if you come from a CWM or PhilzTouch Version.
If you come from TWRP =>2.8.4.0 than you can flash an *.IMG File ,but you can flash on all Versions a *.zip file.
Managed to fix the brick
Thanks for the help, I managed to fix it by installing TRWP 3.0 from ODIN, and now that i have that I'm fine
Thanks!

If you are using custom rom, then simply download rom extract boot.img and place it on desktop, open odin and flash twrp in odin, after that reboot to recovery and put extracted boot.img in your phone, after that just flash it on boot partition! If stock then download latest firmware and flash it on odin!

Hi everyone
M51 is the first Samsung Device for me,
after i flashed TWRP.tar file via Odin, my device is not boot to TWRP
so, how can i boot my device to TWRP??
thanks!
Every phone has a different combination of buttons you need to press in order to access recovery mode. You can look it up on Google and find the combination which you need to access the recovery.
