Soft bricked me galaxy tab s 8.4 SM-T700 help please! - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Soft bricked me galaxy tab s 8.4 SM-T700 after upgrading to 6.0.1 I searched around and found a guide that claimed you could still root it. so I downloaded odin, twrp, and supersu. and after some time of fiddling with it I finally got twrp up and running and installed supersu and tried to reboot, now i'm just getting infinite boot loop. I've tried a few of the of the common fixes like deleting delvik cache and cache but nothing seems to work. I can still get to recovery mode and download mode but I don't know where to go from here If someone could give me instructions to factory reset somehow or something else? that would be must appreciated I'm stuck and would appreciate any help I can get. If you need any other info just let me know and I'll provide what I can.

Greetings and welcome to xda. The easiest solution is to download the latest firmware for your device and flash it with odin, you will lose root but it will fix your bootloop. You can use this website/app to get the correct firmware

Thanks so much that did the trick. one question though can you downgrade firmware by choosing an older firmware from that site aswell? because I don't think you can root this device in 6.0.1?

Yes you can downgrade to an older version and MM can be rooted

Try a older version of recovery and flash it in Oden then supersu then upgrade to the latitude version of recovery by just flashing the image in recovery on device......

Of course you can root this device on 6.0.1 . It's been done since it was released.
You need to keep up to date. See the twrp thread in the dev section.

[Q] TWRP replaced with stock recovery[t805]

I have flashed twrp recovery over odin. I can only get into stock recovery though. Usual fix would be to remove battery b4 rebooting, but I can not make out the battery on this device - seems integrated / hidden.
I am running 4.4.2 KitKat. Trying to root it to debloat.
Any ideas? Maybe remove some startup scripts or Idk...
EDIT: I got word that it seems to be either some hash verification in the new android 4.4.x kernel or even a locked bootloader on top. Is that correct? And, if so, what would be a good course of action now?
More info can be found imo when googling for

I don't know of any tablet that has user removable battery. I'm sure you have to be rooted before you can install a custom recovery. Are you using the rooting method in the development topic?
The question would be why you didn't use the recommended way of using Flashify to flash twrp?

Yes. Would have posted there too had it been allowed. It is the method described in the t800 thread, where it says you should flash twrp via odin and then install SuperUser zip in TWRP.

You did not follow the instructions in the first post, but the latter ones posted by bodivas? Then you should consider trying those in the first post - they work for T805 as well.
The ones in the first post work. Flashify I found it in the CF-Root for T700 thread, it works fine on T805 as well, as long as you get the correct img file from the TWRP site.

yes bodivas is his name. it seemed to be the better method. but since it did not "accept" the image, although odin said success, I dug deeper and found out that there is supposed to be a hash check in 4.4.2 which keeps me from keeping the flashed image
Will flashify solve that problem and make TWRP "resident"? I would rather not flash the CF Auto since it is for a t800 not t805, but maybe i am overcautious:angel:

You don't get by in XDA by being cautious in everything. There's enough reports to tell otherwise.
Yes, using Flashify to flash TWRP replaces stock recovery. TOTALLY.
Requires root though right? So is not possible for me I fear Only way would then be CF Auto for t800...as we found out. TU anyhow.

Hi Guys. As following the instructions to flash openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-chagallwifi.tar using Odin3 v3.09, my T805 reboots into recovery, the TWRP boot screen is blurred, and after the Menu appears, my device locks up and there is no way to reboot it. Force reboot by holding down the Power button doesn't work. I've been trying for nearly an hour and nothing works. The Task Menu and Return buttons are lit, but the screen is blank. Any suggestions on how to get my T805 to reboot normally?
Thanks.
UPDATE:
I found that 2.8.0.1 appears out of alignment on the screen, and I had to poke around until I found where the Reboot button was located. By chance I got it to go into Bootloader and the system rebooted. Once online I installed Flashify and installed TWRP 2.7.1.1 and SUCCESS!! Now my T805 is working normally. WHEW!!

SuperSU Error after cf-auto

Hi friendly xda android enthusiasts. I have, after many issues, finally rooted my gt-n5110 using odin and cf-auto. Workered without a hitch. Odin passed, tab rebooted, and BAM, "superSU has stopped working". I immediately navigated myself over to the playstore to reinstall SuperSU and for the first time i have ever seen it wouldnt allow me to. It only gave me a choice to open. No update no uninstall. Going into my apps list it was not present on downloads but was available on device list. Clucked it and no option to uninstall, only to force stop or turn off. So it is incorporated as a system with no access to it. This has me stumped. I have only seen old threads with answers to this and they are temp fixes. Need to know what i can do to fix this on a permanent basis and if someone could help me understand how and why this issue occured it would give me a better understanding and possibly prevent further issues. Thanks in advance guys.
Try the flashable version in this post after you install a custom recovery with odin.

This may be a very stupid question but i have to be sure. As i stated the odin DID pass the auto root and tab rebooted. But along with the superSU error i ran root checker and was unable to obtain root. Im assuming its because supersu is not embedded. So with that said is it still ok to attempt to flash a recovery to the tab?

Yes. Recovery is independent of whether or not you are rooted. You can install it from Android using tools like Flashify once you are properly rooted, but Odin works fine as long as you have a version of recovery in that format.
Flashing SuperSU from a custom recovery once it is installed should fix the superuser problems you are having.

Doing now. Thankyou. Fingers crossed.
I had the same issue on my 5110. The flashable root only worked for me until I rebooted, then it would lose root. What ultimately worked for me was to unroot with Kingo. Then with USB debugging enabled, re-rooted with Kingo (which took around 10 min).

If flashing SuperSU from recovery doesn't result in a successful rooted system someone should let @Chainfire know. I've never had a problem rooting a stock ROM that way but let's see what @mattdiehl83 reports.

Hi guys sorry for the delay in update. I ended up using VM ware and it allowed to operate as windows on OS X. I installed TWRP, went into the file manager in TWRP and removed the superSU, i then flashed superSU and rebooted. Once back to the tablet i went and restored services to superSU and went into the play store. And finally the playstore gave me the option the update the superSU. And then the rest was all normal installation of superSU. Hope this thread helps anybody dealing with these issues.
Glad you got it working. :good:

I read all the post and didnt found something
YOU DONT NEED TO DELETE SUPERSU 2.0.1
Install 2.02 apk and go to supersu, then to settings and push to /system
This is the easiest way. the one you found: go to recovery delete that and this. download supersu 2.0.2 apk and install it not the recovery zip i mean the APK! i didnt say the flashable supersu zip.
oh wait, yes you are a intelligent boy, you know everything.

That's a bit of a dilemma.
Unfortunately Samsung does not support using fastboot and bootloader mode (they call it download mode) so that standard SDK tool Google provides for Windows, Linux and MAC OS X isn't applicable. Your best bet would be to find a Windows PC that you can use to flash the recovery with Odin since that is the most common and best documented method.
Edit: NVM, somehow I responded to an old post of yours.

[Q] Can't install CM11 on Galaxy TabPro 10.1 (picassowifi)

I tried a few ways to install CM11 on Galaxy TabPro 10.1 (picassowifi) and it doesn't work.
I can't even install a custom recovery, either CMR or TWRP. I think my Samsung bootloader maybe locked. Yes, I have rooted it OK and Root Checker tells me its rooted and SuperSU has been update and works fine. Titanium Backup works fine also, so I know its rooted OK.
Still running stock rom 4.4.2. Trying with Odin to load Recovery image and also Flashyfy but neither can install CMR or TWRP on my device. They just leave the stock bootloader in place. So I am thinking maybe the bootloader is locked?
Any advice, and if you have managed to install CM11 on this device, is there a step-by-step guide with file links somewhere?
Thanks

Yeah I tried those instructions, Heimdall Suite. That just gave an error and messed up stock recovery. It then just got stuck on Samsung screen possibly trying to get into recovery mode. . I used my trusted root method again (via download mode) and it re-routed and put back stock recovery. So that fixed that but still no Custom Recovery and no CM11
Is there any way to check if the bootloader is locked or not?
If the bootloader is locked, any ideas how to unlock on this tablet?

Thanks everyone

Hi, I'm having the same problem with my rooted Tab Pro 10.1. Unfortunately, v2.7 with Flashify still results in booting to the same stock recovery. Did you follow any additional steps to get yours working? Any other suggestions? (I tried the other methods you tried also)

No, v2.7 worked for me but maybe it was nothing to do with that. I may have just got lucky.

Using one of the root checker apps, it reported my device as having clockworkmod recovery even though it didn't boot into that. Must have only half worked or something, who knows.

[Q] Possible brick? Red/Blue LED after TWRP with flashify and one click root.

Hi, I was fed up with my stock, slow, German 855 and wanted to root and flash CloudyG3 2.3.
First I tried Purple Drake lite but it aborted after the phone rebooted. Then I tried LG One Click Root 1.3 and this seemed to work.
Next on my list was flashing a recovery. I followed this: [RECOVERY][TWRP][D855] TeamWin Recovery with modem support and flashed the .img via flashify.
Now the phone does not boot. It says "Secure bootig error. Cause: Boot certification verify." after that the screen turns off and the notification LED flashes red and blue. I tried factory reset but I end up at the same error message.
I started panic googling and was about to try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59970974&postcount=6 but because OP had a slightly different problem and I don't want to make it any worst, I thought I ask for verification first.
What did I do wrong? I stuck to tutorials from the FAQ (apart from one click root which seemed to work). Am I supposed to flash stock firmware via ADP download mode now?
Thanks!

@CutterSlade001, seems like you are already rooted. Did you try pulling out the battery and then powering on again? Once you are sure you are rooted, you can try using various methods available on XDA or try searching AutoRec on the play store for installing twrp. It's meant for rooted lollipop devices. Hope this helps.

Yes pulling the battery does nothing but to give me the ability to look at the error again.
I get that i am supposed to install twrp. But how to safely make the phone operational again?
Or can I only use ADB at hte moment? Yes rooting worked.
Thanks for your hint at AutoRec I will try that once the phone works again.

I presume you can get into download mode? If you can use flashtool to go back to stock then root your device then use Autorec.
Download mode seems to work. Slowly downloading factory image now...
So rooting via one click was not the problem? Not using Autorec was?
I will follow this then after factory flash and reset and root via oneclick?
Thanks a lot for your help! I got it working again.
But now I am back to KitKat and Autorec requires Lollipop. OTA says there is no update and I got all sorts of junk on the phone from other carriers.
Is there a factory Lollipop image I missed?

@CutterSlade001 seems like you got hold of a kk firmware file instead of lp. You should be able to the appropriate lollipop version for your phone model. After that, just flash once again and then use one click root plus recovery options available in XDA.

Thanks for all your Help! I did that and it worked! I only found Lollipop .kdz files so I used the 2014 flash tool. After that, everything worked as expected. I am now running CloudyG3 2.3 and am Happy so far. But I did a clean install with only the bare minimum of apps for now and the stock firmware ran smooth for a few weeks also. Always buy the version with 3 GB RAM instead of the one with 2 GB RAM and a "free" LG G Watch.

recovery is not seandroid enforcing

I keep having this problem. I just tried both KINGROOT and CF-AUTO ROOT.
After doing this whole process through ODIN. I then try to flash the latest TWRP from their website : dl.twrp.me/jfltetmo/twrp-3.2.0-0-jfltetmo.img.tar.html
Then after that finishes, I try to boot into recovery and it gives me the message: recovery is not seandroid enforcing and just sits there.
I have a tmobile s4.
and I also checked if I am indeed rooted by using an app from the play store to check root and it shows Im rooted.
Any help would be great.
Root isn't needed to flash a twrp.
Tried flashing the latest stock rom and twrp without rooting the phone?

Yup didn't work after trying it all the only thing that did work was SkipSoft Unified Android Toolkit and it was the easiest thing I ever used.

I have the exact problem, can you kindly explain in details how you went about it? I already downloaded SkipSoft.
Same issues here, buddy.
I tried to work on solving it out for approximately 8 hours and still no sign of success. Tried to reflash stock OS back on the phone via ODIN and it went successful. Tried CF-Auto-root file and it went through successful. But when it only came to the TWRP file, it went successful onto flashing on ODIN's side, but now something is interfering with the boot up process onto TWRP now. Hopefully there's a alternative towards this issue, since i've been wanting to reflash a Nougat OS onto the device.
Edit: I give credit to @Krappa420 for the mention of "SkipSoft Unified Android Toolkit" because i just installed the program on my laptop now and it went successful. But since i already had other materials pre-installed, some others with ODIN and ADB installed can just download this TWRP version here: https://dl.twrp.me/jfltexx/twrp-2.7.0.0-jfltexx.img.html
Edit #2: Seems that the TWRP version is too old to flash some of the newer OS's, such as nougat itself. Will find a way to update TWRP without breaking the boot up process, like the past attempts
Edit #3: After fiddling with TWRP versions 2.7.0.0 and up, i managed to get it capped up to 3.1.1 any future versions will most likely not work, so you're capped at 3.1.1 Here's the link for flashing it with ODIN: https://dl.twrp.me/jfltexx/twrp-3.1.1-0-jfltexx.img.tar.html
So you twrp 3.1.1 and it will work right

It wouldn't really matter what order you're using.
You can use CF-Auto-Root to root it for you while you have stock recovery still, and after you can flash to TWRP and use a custom recovery afterwards
Or you can flash TWRP first and flash a SuperSU zip file afterwards and it'll give you root while maintaining to have TWRP installed.
But to sum it up, it wouldn't matter what order you choose. Help yourself

Before anything, try to install the SuperSU app over on the play store, if it says you're not rooted, you may have to restart the whole process within TWRP and reflash the SuperSU Zip file.
Thank you
Says the binary is occupied in su
Where do I find su zip
Should I use the chain fire auto zip
Thanks

Try this one: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
If it keeps on persisting, I'll have to find another way
I tried that file and it just sits in booting. I left it be then reinstated the ROM. Still no root its OK tight not to have root
Thank you

Yeah try to re-flash the ROM again but this time flash magisk through TWRP since SuperSU is being trippy on your S4
Thank you for the help
Dummy me I found out from reading other forums you have to go in to tools and enable root after going in to recovery and flash the root file in the extra section.
Every thing works
Thank you so much
