Hi. I wanted to install a new ROM on to my galaxy tab s 10.5 LTE device.
Found a how to here on XDA, so I downloaded the sm-t805 twrp-t recovery IMG file to my computer, added to Odin and it said pass!
I booted into recovery again, the original Samsung recovery was still there. Why?
Then today I tried again, but this time the whole process failed and I stuck in recovery.
Can someone help me please?
Thank you in advance

Hello there, I was trying to update my Tab's firmware to 4.2.2 following the instructions listed on a website I can't link to because I'm a new member. I found it by googling "update sm-t210 to 2.4.4". It's on a website called techbeasts.
I was using CWM recovery 6.0.4.7. I installed the first file, listed at the bottom of the page, the "Kernel.zip file". It installed using CWM just fine, it's a small file only about 6MB. The second file I tried to install, the "T110 on T210/210R.zip" file failed. It gave me something about 5 out 4 expected args and didn't work.
After this my tablet would not boot, it would show the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (not the animation) and then go black.
Next I tried to reflash using the 4.1.2 firmware from SamMobile using ODIN. This failed on the modem.bin. After this I couldn't boot in in recovery mode or ODIN mode. All I get is the, "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue...". ODIN still recognizes my tablet.
So I'm stuck. I've spent all night googling to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
So I managed to use ODIN to get CWM reworking. But I've hit another brick wall. Now that I've got something to work with anyone have any ideas?

Install the latest CWM (6.0.4.8) and it you should be able to flash the rom correctly.
Thanks gr8note,
So I did what you suggested, I installed 6.0.4.9 and then lo and behold, the error went away! The ROM installed with no errors. One issue is the device no longer registers with adb, but fortunately the ROM was already on my device. The device is still discoverable with ODIN on my PC.
My new problem is now I can't get it to boot in to anything but recovery or ODIN. Even if I just use the power button it boots to recovery. I just got home from work and will be searching for a solution, but any more help would be appreciated!
Thanks again.

Flash the kernel again.
Sent from my SCH-I605
Hi gr8nole, thank you for getting back to me. I've seen your name all over these forums searching for a solution.
So I have reflashed the kernel I had originally downloaded, and also tried the blackhawk kernel I found on these forums for the sm-t210. It still will only boot to recovery. I have flashed several different recoveries to my tablet. I have tried two different ROMs - one from the website I mentioned above and the stock ROM from SamMobile - and it still will only boot to recovery or ODIN.
If you had a different kernel in mind a link would be greatly appreciated. Beyond that, any other advice you can give me?

j,
a while back i read a warning about sammobile images being screwy and to avoid them.
this was the image i used when i first got my tab http://d-h.st/users/Jamison904?fld_id=21912 the 1.13 gb img not the dump
hope this helps
m
Hey thanks for replying.
I ended up doing a huge facepalm when I figured out my problem. I was attempting to install the stock ROM like the other ROMs...through a recovery. You can imagine my frustration when I finally realized it was not a normal ZIP but instead had to be extracted and ODIN'D.
Duh.
Hi everyone in XDA
So my issue is that I have a Grand Duos and I had the CWM recovery (Philz Touch 6.12.8) installed in it, and I wanted to install a new ROM, but installing it in CWM indicated error of installation so I wanted to try installing it in TWRP. I didn't know how to install the TWRP but I just flashed it with the CWM and then I turn the phone off and tried to get in the new TWRP, but suddenly it got stuck in the Samsung Grand DUOS GT-I9082 screen, no TWRP not turning on, the only thing i can do is enter the DOWNLOAD mode. So then I tried to install back the CWM but Odin could'n program it, I also downloaded the stock firmware of the Gand Duos and again it couldn't install it. I have the drivers installed and tried with many other versions of Odin but still not working.
ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME

Stock ROM
Hello Saniii,
Normally when things like this happen the wisest and more sure thing to do is to go back to a 4.1.2 ROM. Search for the ROM if you can remember that shipped with your phone. Use ODIN and flash it back to stock ROM. Don't root it or do anything yet. I tend to let the system boot and atleast get to the wizard and wait a minute or so to then go on to reboot download mode and then you can try to root it. I've never like TWRP much, I've kinda been using CWM for years so I wouldn't know, but I'd go with the early Philz Touch, and then I tend to do k2wl latest modded CWM.
Let me know how that works out
Paul

You need to download Stock ROM, it will hang for some time because it will check the file but if you are able to boot in download mode i dont think there would be any problem
If still problem persist please give a snap what exactly your are facing.

It happens to me sometimes and its very irritating when it stuck there. You can do several things
1st- change your usb cable
2nd - try it again again when it stucks, turn off your computer and your phone too by removing battery of phone and then try again. 3rd - try to install it fron another computer but 1st install Samsung kies then odin then install your stock firmware

Hi.
Whenever I boot up my Galaxy Tab 3 Lite SM-T110 it just goes to the TWRP recovery screen, my android was working fine but I turned it off and on and now it just goes to that screen.
I've tried clearing the cache, I downloaded stock firmware from sammobile but it was a recovery.img and I don't know how to use that.
Please, can you help me?
Thank you.
And sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, I'm an idiotic noob
Edit: TWRP says I have no OS. ;-;

Downloaded another firmware from sammobile, it had the tar.md5 in it and now my tablet is working again!
Can someone please help? I have followed the instructions and have rooted my T900, but now everytime I try to install a custom recovery, TWRP, it doesn't work. I've flashed it a couple times and every time I try to boot into recovery it just goes to standard Android recovery KOT49H.T900UEUANK1. My KNOX has been tripped, is that causing a problem? Any and all help is greatly appreciated in this matter.

Did you flash via odin or an app? Knox being tripped shouldnt matter.
To fix the problem when flashing in odin, just untick autoreboot in odin and reboot manually.
Which instructions did you follow?

Reflash the Stock firmware from Samfirmware.com using ODIN. Your device will be back to normal.
Make a Note to self - to not involve in Beta or WIP projects when you have a very expensive phone which even Samsung cannot repair at this moment.

Thanks for ur advise, i think i may just wait for the official version, heard it shouldn't take too long to wait
