Tab 3 7" T210R is slow and won't root!!! HELP? - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Gentlemen,
This tab is slow....keyboard is very laggy. So I figured I'd root it and load a ROM to it.... I flashed the file listed in the thread,
however, power, home and up won't go.... upon ocsassion, it wil bring me into factory mode..... wierd. My s3 and 4 rooted just fine,
so I'm no stranger to that......
Suggestion? Is there something I'm missing?
Other suggested in antother thread to reload factory firmware from sammobile...... I don't believe it would solve anything......
Thanks guys

You should try to flash the original firmware and see if it would fix it. Before doing it backup your data in case it doesn't fix

When flashing recovery, do not check auto reboot on odin and when it says pass after a successful flash, do the three combos then flash universal root.zip thing then qualla, your device has been rooted

I used this link - Worked just like the video showed except I found that after flashing the TWRP recovery tool, I had to hold volume up & home for an extended period before the tool would boot. Watch the screen. After the Samsung logo dissapears, there is a slight glow on the screen. When that glow disappears, release the keys and you should see a lock screen. Swipe and you're in. Good luck.
Heres the link:

This error has reported in many forums but no ultimate solution yet:
Checkout some tips this might help
Turn off you phone and take your battery out
Now your mobile phone is off
Turn it on again by pressing power and volume button (up or down doesn’t matter) but same time.
After Logo “Android out of box will appear”
Press Menu button and wait a recovering button should appear
Recover your phone it might help?
Best of luck:good:

Thank You, I found it and already fixed it.
same problem
just for the sake of enforcement, i have the same problem. although i don't know if it was there from the start, but i noticed it after flashing rooted stock via ODIN.
then, i flashed CWM, and it was still there. I flashed a stock rom and checked if i can get into stock recovery, no luck!
then i flashed CWM from another source, and it was still there.
so i flashed CF-root to go back to stock recovery, and it is still there.
finally, i flashed CWM, and rebooted into recovery via ROM Manager, and flashed a custom ROM which includes a custom recovery, and it is still there!!!
So, i wake up every morning, and it is still there.....

[Q] Strange problems with my Gio...

Yesterday, my gio was working totally normal, I was running the CM7 Apocalypse rom. It was acting kind of funny, so I decided to flash back to my stock rom. The flash seemed to go as expected, except now when I boot my phone, its a totally black screen. It plays the sound that it makes when it starts, so its doing something. There is also no recovery. I can get it into download mode, except no matter what rom i flash it still has the black screen. The backlight is on and the screen turns on for download mode, so there isn't anything wrong with the screen. Also, my phone is the GT-S5660M model from Bell. Help?
no matter what rom i flash it still has the black screen

I CAN get into download mode. I've tried to flash back to stock. I've also tried to flash CWM but none of it worked. I dont think its bricked because when I flashed the stock rom it played the sound it makes when it starts. The screen is just screwed up somehow.

Thats the weird thing, I've already done that a bunch of times and the black screen is still there. The screen isn't damaged or anything. It's like something is persisting across flashes.
Did you wipe before installing stock with Odin?

[q] Warning for any rooted Tab 7!!!!!

Today I finally rooted my Tablet 7 with some help from gr8nole here on XDA. Needless to say I was very happy and started downloading any and all apps that required root I was interested in. Unfortunately about an hour into my adventure I downloaded an app called LCD Density. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. It soft bricked my device after changing the density from 240 to 160. I am now just trying to get back to square one again and have no idea what to do. I wiped the cache partition and re flashed root. Reboot same thing again. The Samsung screen is vertical not horizontal and doing the infamous glow from blue to white and back to blue and nothing more continuously. I am in CWM now and not really sure what step to take next as I don't want to risk a hard brick. I went to Rom Manager in CWM and no files were there when I went to use the backup feature What should I do?

Thank you..Quick question. How do you get into Recovery with TWRP? I flashed it with Odin with the auto restart and with out. I used the CWM Recovery vol up power and home keys but it does not do anything. I am rooted already as well. Could that be the issue? Im using the TAR file too. I really would like to use the touch screen option instead of pushing buttons like a dinosaur

When you flash twrp or cwm in odin, you must uncheck autoreboot. Btw hold down power vol up and home button, when samsung logo appears, release the power button while still pessing down vol up and home

Why didnt you just change the density back? Open build.prop, or push a stock version of it via adb or (idk if it is possible) via fastboot.
Then yoir problem should be solved. Those tweaks have got nothing to do with cache, or data, or so
Thats also why you need root and also the reason, why it is not so easy, to root some devices
But try brain.exe and everything should work, as it should

We are not specific and are not spoon feeding you because this not done that way. You HAVE to spend time and learn what is what. The answers you need and the help you need are already here. If you're expecting download links and screenshots you shouldn't be modifying your phone. The whole point of this community is to learn and share the knowledge - not spoon feed.
Go to the TWRP thread, read up and download the tar that you need to flash through odin. Look for the MJ5 bootloader (hint: look up Wanam's ROM thread, that's one of the many places). After you got these two, boot to TWRP and flash the ROM.
Finally, as long as your phone gets into download mode, it's not bricked. And you got to do something incredibly foolish to make it not boot into bootloader. That said, it would be prudent to learn and act rather than blindly execute what you read - I said the same thing in not so many words in my reply to you in the DN3 ROM thread.

Samsung tab 3 10.1 GT- 5210 stock firmware issue

Hi all,
I’m having an issue with a Samsung tab 3 10.1 and done help would be much appreciated. I have tried to follow done guides but haven’t been that successful.
I have purchased a tab that is stuck in mgm/retail mode and the seller is no longer getting back to me to return it.
I believe that is a way to use Odin and flash the device in download mode.
The problem I have is finding the file to do this with? A point in the right direction would be much appreciated

What are you trying to do? Are you using stock ROM from https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-tab3/firmware/#GT-P5210 page ?

Here is some stock http://www.mediafire.com/download/9mbmw4gtrfli6ef/STOCK-GTP5210-4.2.2.zip
Thanks for the reply, i've downloaded what you have sent over but i can't find a .tar file to send to the device via odin.
I'm trying to reflash the device to factory settings.

This ROM is in a format supported by TWRP.
So you could in short:
- install TWRP using ODIN https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-twrp-3-x-samsung-galaxy-tab-3-t3340938
- install ROM using TWRP, you can install stock or custom ROM
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...om-100-stock-4-4-2-kitkat-p5210-wifi-t2848279
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-10/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3587761
I found another site with roms https://samsung-firmware.org/pl/model/GT-P5210/, maybe here will be the ROM in format supported by ODIN.
Did reflash the device to factory settings help?
Ok so i've tried to install TWRP using Odin - No Joy
So now i'm unsure where to go from here as i cant put TWRP on the device to install the ROM?
No the flash did not reset to factory settings, this is the trouble im having no rom will flash the device, feel like banging my head against a wall.

Which guide did you follow? I am asking becouse it should work, strange.
Steps in short:
- Enter download mode Volume Down + Home button + Power button.
- Start ODIN
- Flash TWRP
- Enter recovery mode Volume Up + Home button + Power button
- Flash ROM from zip
Or with ROM in ODIN compatible format:
- Enter download mode Volume Down + Home button + Power button.
- Start ODIN
- Flash ROM
Ok so I have done exactly that with two stock rims and I’m still having the same issue. Don’t know where to go from here. Could I root it, would that work?

It’s really frustrating! There must be a way, I’m sure
