yes samsung galaxy tab s 8.4 sm t700

You probably need to reset to factory default before flashing. Format(not wipe) system and data. Ensure you have that twrp backup before formatting anything.

Are you trying to install on TWRP. Go to wipe. Then advanced wipe. select System, Data, Cache, Dalvik cache and optionally Internal storage. After that try to flash zip file again. Let us know how you went

hi there guys thanks for everybody s help i ll do it right now and i ll tell you right after if it s ok

Did you format the partitions (not wipe) to ext4 like I suggested with TWRP?

first time i had a boot loop was when i formatted then before leaving custom recovery it asked me if i want to root tab , then i accepted and it frooze , but after , have used odin with pit file and stock rom even checked repartition so it should be same as formatting no?

Don't let twrp root your device.
After repartition are you able to mount all partitions in twrp?
Did the firmware flash OK?

Flash help

I am going to flash a new AOSP on my tab using twrp but i do not have a sd card so if i do a full wipe i will have nothing left to flash because i will loose the files .
I am currebtly using phoenix rom and i am going to flash android m rom so should k flash the rom without a full wipe
MY DEVICE: GALAXY TAB S 10.5 (SM-T805)

Why do you need an sd card?
Just backup to internal storage, no need to full wipe either. Just wipe data that is enough or try and dirty flash first.

Can i choose files from backup

Ashyx ols could u give me step by step instructions i am still a noob

All you need do is install twrp and then boot to recovery. Make a full backup(backup will automatically be stored on your device storage).
Install the zip using twrp.
That's it.
If you have issues when booting just go back into recovery and wipe data only then reboot.

I did what u said but it seems there is a problem i downloaded the right files but twrp says that it is for chagglewifi that is smt800 not for chaggalte . I re downloaded it but the error presisits

Idk what to do now a little light

It says it is for smt800 not t805 help the files are right i downloaded it 3 times

If you unlock your bootloader then data is wiped, not in twrp.

wiping internal storage only may remove the decrypt pass , but if not you will have to wipe both data and internal storage (preferably wipe data to f2fs) ...that will decrypt the phone , at this point your phone is encrypted and TWRP wont be able to backup data...
you can try and do the following, flash the root descried above from OTG (insert the otg then on TWRP when TWRP asks for pass swipe to cancel , it will enter, mount OTG, then go back and see if TWRP can read it, if not wipe it in twrp then unmount it, place the files on it again and insert it and mount again, if that works flash the root from OTG , you can flash either the one descried above or SuperSU .28 , both will work... then if it flashes , return to system(it may reboot twice if you installed superSU, and back up you apps from Titanium, then go back to TWRP and wipe data and internal then flash root again..., the only way TWRP will read both data and internal storage is if the phone is decrypted and as far as i know it can only be done by wiping both on TWRP .28 . )

TWRP password error fix..?

I unlocked the bootloader and then installed the twrp recovery... ( Normal recovery not treble)
When I booted in recovery. It asked for password {( I tried to enter my default password but it didn't worked)}
I even tried to reboot my phone but it got stuck on boot logo...
FIX---- 1) Skip the password step
2) Then wipe data.
3) Reboot to recovery and u r good to go.
Now u can install/wipe/ mount storage.....etc..
And installed ur custom ROM.
I've installed dot is 2.2 on redMI note 5 it's just awesome.?

1) unlock ur bootloader.
2) install twrp recovery. Treble or normal one.
3) download, SuperSU flashable file. And install from recovery.
( No need to wipe data. If u just want to root)
4) download the custom ROM and place in SD card.
5) now wipe data, catche, internal memory....
6) now install custom ROM zip file. And gapps if required.
7) reboot ur phone and u r good to go.
8) install SuperSU if u want to root.
All the downloads are present in other xda forms. Or u can see YouTube video.

The only problem for which i am concerned is the bootloop as i have watched many you tube videos but when i go in comment section there are lot of problems faced by people. Please give link to the tutorial you used to flash TWRP and rooted phone without problem.
Please

you can install "lazyflasher" after doing the root to start normally. I had the same problem and with this it was solved. I installed everything from the SD and my device is a Redmi 5 plus.

How is "lazyflasher", you can explain

the only solution is install another recovery such as redwolf for sure

Use red wolf recovery, it also supports incremental OTA update. Also built in magisk or supersu root. No need of lazy flasher.

Hi! Wiping the data will make me lose everything? Like apps, photos, music, etc?
There any way to install the twrp without losing everything?

Don´t confuse Wipe data with Format data.
Wiping data you will delete all the data from the apps. all the settings such as wifi, hotspot, brightness, location, language, keyboard preferences, etc and all the apps that you (the user) installed after to reboot to system.
Formatting data you will lost also all the folders and all the files in your internal memory such as music, pictures, etc., some of those folder needed for android to work will be created again while device is rebooting but your personal files will gone
You don´t need to lost everything just to install TWRP. Are you going to unlock bootloader or already did it?

What system did you restart if you wiped the whole system partition??? Flash stock and stay out of advanced functions if you have no idea on what you're clicking!

The stock images can be flashed using fastboot or MiFlash. Both the A and B slots will be flashed and the userdata will be cleared so there's nothing else to do afterwards. Don't relock the bootloader if you intend on hacking your phone some more.
