Stock Marshmallow firmware for the Galaxy tab S SM-T807A (ATT model)
Finally we managed to get hold of the stock MM firmware for the T807A. This is extremely rare and credits go to @luckyyang for finding it and @wojo797 for paying to download it and sharing it. (Make sure you hit the thanks button for these guys)
To install:
1. Extract the tar from the zip file
2. Reboot to DOWNLOAD mode
3. Place ALL_ATT_T807AUCU1CPI8_T807AATT1CPI8_CL9294073_QB10977723_REV00_user_low_ship.tar in the AP slot of ODIN
4. click START
NOTE: I have removed the useless USERDATA.IMG which only contained unecessary dalvik cache odex files. This will be rebuilt by the system at first boot. This may take anything up to 10 minutes first boot.

Out of 40 or so downloads since posting this, apparently oh so needed firmware, you are the only one to have had the decency to say thanks. [emoji106]
The others couldn't even be bothered to hit the thanks button.
Will make a note to myself not to bother in future [emoji52]
I keep getting a FAIL right after cache.img. Any ideas as to what I can do to resolve this?

Even if your contributions (as well as other users contributions on xda) rarely get even 5% of the recognition they should, doing it for the sake of helping others without expecting nothing in return is still an enjoyable experience, and (maybe I'm wrong) it is the feeling I always felt about your hundreds of posts here, helping not one but several noobs at the same time while also contributing with several firmwares, modified kernels, etc.
For what is worth, your contributions here are KEY to make this tablet a LOT more usable than it is I and hope you can still find it pleasant to do it (not just this tablet, every other android gadget you may have in the future).
Also, expect a couple of beers next week when I get to pay my credit card (its credit is running on fumes).
Oh and expect some questions on how to conserve the root from LP and upgrade to MM. Hope to achieve without bothering.

I'm not asking for donations, nor do I ever. Thats entirely up to the user.
But it's a simple fact that even something as simple as clicking thanks is too much trouble for most and this is not just noobs.
It's just one extra click of a mouse.
Noone has thanked either of the credits who deserve recognition too.
As anyone can see it has been a team effort to bring this why can't everyone else be a team player too?[emoji19]
It's good for a developer to get feedback it shows there is interest in what is done and that's how I see the thanks button.
However it's also nice to see replies with a little feedback on how things are working. It also keeps the post relevant and in view instead of disappearing into the depths.
Sounds like a rant, but it's not. It's more despair at the hit and run attitude.
It's not just this forum, I post in many other device forums and it's always the same.
Anyway thanks for the feedback, it's lonely for us devs at this end, it's nice to get some.

Afraid not, but I think your firmware is available anyway.
Kingroot doesn't seem to work on this version (which I kind of expected). Is there any conceivable way to root the T807A on Marshmallow that I'm not finding?

Here is the CM6 system built last night by me. Go ahead and do whatever you want with it. This is for those having issues building. Here it is
www.justanotherdev.slackdev.com/froyo.tgz
This is not a ready to flash ROM but just the system folder from the CM6 build for people to play with.
This is for devs looking to play with CM6 which was compiled for the vibrant and not just a generic build. This is NOT A READY TO FLASH ROM. I just built went to sleep and threw this up for people.
Enjoy!

Where was that indicated? There are only two how-tos on the Wiki for CM6 of relevance for Galaxy S/Vibrant: building the CM6 kernel from source, and updating the Galaxy S/Vibrant to CM6. However, the "Full Update Guide" includes the following caveat: NOTE: As of right now CyanogenMod is not available for the Samsung Vibrant.
There are no full instructions on the wiki for building CM6, nor for truly updating a Vibrant since CM6 has not been built for the Vibrant. You will also not find even an alpha release, nor any nightlies.
For those who don't understand why this is the case, or why flashing a ROM through Odin is different than through the recovery console, it's probably best to wait until there is a "one-click" for you ...
so many people are going to download this without realizing that this is for development only and not even for use yet

Sorry if you took that as a genuine offer of advice, but it was meant as a sarcastic retort. People who don't understand what is technically involved in "rooting", what it means to "mount" a device or where the line between Linux and Android lays really have no basis in asking for aid when things go awry. (Sorry if I offend you, but seriously, you're asking for help in a development thread without knowing about which what you're actually asking for help? Really? Seriously?!)
No one has created a reliable method to fully supplant the Vibrant's recovery console, the OTA package that is normally used to flashed Android devices cannot be properly compiled and packaged for the Vibrant, users are still having issues building an AOSP directory structure—let alone a truly usable boot.img—and a complete system replacement is expected?! It really is no wonder why those really building apps and systems for various Android platforms avoid XDA, and leave it to those merely "cooking" as was previously the standard with WinMo.
(When is the interrobang going to be finally accepted as a true form of punctuation?! Really?!)
nice work, seems like a lot of devs are finally on this

People don't stay away from XDA because of the sometimes foolish questions people ask. They stay away because of the way they get treated by pompous d*cks like you that have no tolerance for people trying to learn and enjoy their devices more.
Everyone starts out without a clue and without help from others we'd all still be drooling on ourselves and sh*tting in our diapers.
Grow up and help out... or just go away.
Hi. I'd like to announce you that I'll try to port CM7 to Arc.
I need some people to test it too as I don't have Arc.
It'll be system.img flashable via fastboot. So, ANYONE?
Of course that you need unlocked bootloader because there's no other way of flashing system.img file except fastboot!
Note: be prepared to most probably lose all data to ensure that CM7 will run on clean system (to avoid any additional bugs).
Brick recovery:
If CM7 system.img ever bricks your phone, simply connect it to the fastboot and flash Bin4ry's rooted system.img (easiest way), or reflash with FlashTool.
Some kind of global EULA. Breaking these terms will reflect as stopping releasing progress to the public on some time.
*Do not remind me about posting my progress. I know that I have to post progress when there will be any, I'm not stupid.
*Do NOT ask me to switch to 2.3.4 CM7 because there are only nightly builds for a few devices.
*Do NOT mirror my files once they appear. Reasons:
1) With no mirrors I can keep track of download counter.
2) With no mirrors I ensure that all people download latest release, not some outdated file from mirror.
3) Mediafire is FREE and it has NO DOWNLOAD WAITING.
Everything I publish will be in this Mediafire folder. Again, don't mirror.
Update - 16th May: I have plans to make a custom kernel too. Wait for further info
Update - June 2011: Jerpelea has taken over CM7 development for Arc. FreeXperia project expanded to Xperia Arc and Play. Play will be maintained by me. Arc project closed - thread closed.

Do you have SIM-unlocked phone, and can you unlock bootloader?
I've already unlocked the bootloader.
And rooted via Bin4ry's method.
I'm working 12.00-16.00 (BST) tomorrow, then off 'til 12.00 (BST) on Wednesday, so I should be around quite a bit over the next few days.

Sounds fine to me.
I'll spend this evening getting my Defy ready to use again, just in case...
I'll be happy to test - I can also help with debugging and possibly porting too (no actual dev experience, but do have the ability to read and understand things, and have plenty of linux experience). I'll be able to test over the next 3 weeks, but I do have university exams, and they take priority obviously. Once those 3 weeks are over I'll have lots of spare time for a couple of months, so can help properly then! My phone is sim and bootloader unlocked, but not rooted at the moment.
Obviously, this is my main phone, so just for clarity, not doing anything that ca affect the ability of the phone to go into fastboot mode, correct?

Worst thing that can happen is that you'll have to reflash rooted system.img by Bin4ry. But better safe than sorry

Correct.
Well, knowing me luck...
I know there shouldn't be any risk, it'd just be simpler for me to have a fully functional phone to use while the Arc is being tinkered with.

Yes, if that's acceptable for you to have Arc for testing only, then cool!
It's always better to have backup phone so you have time to fix another one.
In that case, I think I'll buy myself a cheap £10 payg phone from the local supermarket, just in case - I can stick my current SIM in it while developing/testing.
I hope you both are ready for the data loss. It's necessary, to ensure that ROM will run on clean phone and avoid any bugs possible due to installed application and user settings.
I have Titanium Backup, I'll be fine
edit: to be honest, so long as I don't lose my text messages, which I back up regularly anyway, I don't really care about the rest.
I don't use my Arc for music, I have a proper Walkman for that. I basically haven't used the Arc's camera because it's a long time since I last had a phone with a good camera, so I'm unused to it now and I can always re-download apps...
Good luck guys nice to see a bit of community co-operation, hope all goes well
I shall follow the goings on with anticipation

Can redownload apps - it's a new phone, so don't have any text messages and music is all on my PC contacts, emails etc are all saved on google's servers and don't have any photos!

So, I can count on rustynuts34 too?
I hope you have MSN, Yahoo!, gTalk, or meet on IRC (MSN preferably) so we can discuss faster once I start with porting (that should be in next few days)

So I recently purchased a Logitech k400 keyboard/trackpad combo for my raspberry pi, as well as taking it around with my N10 if necessary. However, for whatever reason, the tablet just won't recognize the keyboard plugged in over OTG. I've tested it on my N7 and it works like a charm. I've done some research and realized that this is pretty much universal.
Is there any way to get the N10 to recognize the keyboard? An app or something?
Thanks!
The drivers for the Unifying receiver are not included in the N10 Kernel.
With the Kernel from craigacgomez it will work:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1998585&highlight=unify
You can find his standalone Kernels here:
http://goo.im/devs/craigacgomez/manta/
I'm using the "manta-kernel-stock-cgomez.23112012.zip" and its working pretty good.
Hopefully Google will add the drivers with the next Update.
Works properly with KToonz Kernel as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2015874
Am i just supposed to flash those over stock, or is there a custom ROM that goes with them?
I flashed "manta-kernel-stock-cgomez.23112012" over Stock 4.2.2.
I have some "normal Nexus 10 Problems" with reboots and lags, but I'm quite sure its not the Kernel.
Try both and tell us your experiences

Hi glensta,
I have purchased N10 two days back and I was really disappointed when my logitech keyboad did not work. I see you could get working. Can you please help me to install required drivers. Please note that I am very new to android. After looking at few videos and links I have understood rooting and flashing but still not very clear. So I will appreciate if you can explain me step by step procedure to get my keyboard working. I am really sorry if I am asking too much. But I would be really thankful to you if you can help me. We can connect over email also if you want.
Thanks...

If you're rooted and know how to flash a rom & kernel, then it's easy. If not, You'll need to understand this first before going forward.

Hi Glensta,
No I have never rooted any android device. That is why I have been reading about it. So following are the option which I though of trying.
You have asked to get flashable zip file from below link.

I hope below is zip file
http://www.mediafire.com/download/spi7ichqvf32dz1/KTManta-05-14-2013.zip
Not sure how to flash zip file. So downloaded toolkit from below link. It has all options like root, flash, boot...... but not sure what is the correct way as I am afraid that I may get into issues.
http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
I downloaded toolkit from above link. Install required drivers for toolkit to couple with nexus 10. Now I think I am one or two step away from what I need to do but I am afraid to do that. Do I need to always root android device to flash zip file?
If you think that I should not get into all these issues and drop this idea then let me know. I really don’t want to damage on my new N10.

Hi rbirahul - I'm sure the wugfresh toolkit works fine. I prefer this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001868.
start there and then follow the steps I've suggested already. There's plenty of info out there and it's not as hard as it seems. Believe me I've put plenty & plenty of hours into learning and made plenty of mistakes, but never damaged my nexus 10 beyond repair. You'll need to do your home work.

Also - when someone helps you, hit the "thanks" button as a show of appreciation.

Hi Glensta,
Yes I think I should explore more on this and I will. I request you to answer few last queries?
1) Can I flash .img or .zip file without rooting the device?
2) Should I flash directly KTManta-05-14-2013.zip or I should unzip and flash boot.img?
Thanks,
rbirahul

First learn how to root your device. Start here, Zedomax has great easy to understand videos for beginners.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVlI-gWppCA&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Then next learn how to flash a rom.
Finally learn how to flash a kernel.
All that information is out there and not hard to find. Good luck :thumbup:

Works brilliantly on Android 4.3
Hi guys, it must be a silly question, but I'm really desperated: will these N10 kernel work on N7 2013? Because I need this to make my k400r works on my N7 2013. Please let me know, thanks a lot.
You ****ers. Release it for n7 2013. How dare you call yourselves developers with this poor ass support for the nexus flo

I know TWRP topic has been live I'm just adding this info as a Safeguard heads up for using the Correct twrp for those that never flashed before .
Just wanted to post for those realizing twrp is available to Not flash the wrong one .
Zerofltespr.img is INCORRECT for tmobile s6.I say this because there are 4 to choose from when u use the links to it
It a just a heads up cause that file falls next to the Tmobile version if you are looking for the Tmo.
Make sure to choose 2.8.6.0 zeroflte.img it is 25.2mb
Not 2.8.6.0 zerofltespr.img.
It will not allow you to navigate thru twrp or reboot.
I did this by mistake
If you do by mistake JUST CF AUTO ROOT again and it will restore stock recovery

Not sure if we need a whole thread on this. People should just read and pay attention before they flash stuff to their phone
Period.
This isn't a New wide spread topic it's a small WARNING tutorial TO save people from a very easily made mistake .I expected this type of response. But the greater number of considerate people would appreciated such a small but usefully tip expecially when you could see this mistake easily being made .
It's a necessary sub topic in regards to 920t TWRP recovery.

It all good man. Just would be more appropriate to put that info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3080833 where everyone else is talking about recovery flashing. We don't need a whole thread on this.
This is a good warning. I'm pretty experienced with these thing and am careful. I used Flashify to install TWRP because I'm at work. I selected S6 zeroflte and it gave me two options 2.8.6.0 and 2.8.6.0. So I selected the first one and installed it. Had I paid closer attention, after you select the one you want, it confirms the image name and sure enough, the first option turned out to be the Sprint version. So I had to do it again to flash the right one. I by chance stumbled across this thread just an hour prior to running into this issue, so I figured I flashed the wrong recovery. All is well now!
Thanks man for the appreciation. .I'm glad u seen it how i did .All I did was catch hell with this tip

Thanks for the warning. My cp is down at the moment so I'm in a holding pattern....
Wow thanks for this warning. I've been thinking of flashing TWRP for a while now and this really helped me get it done properly. Used Flashify as well and checked to make sure it was working fine.
Barging in.
Any rom developers out there, should I make zerofltetmo version of TWRP? Basically updating the default.prop to only flash versions for zerofltetmo, or do you all want to use zeroflte?

zeroflte is fine, unless you foresee a reason we should have our own?
@bigbiff Great to see you stop by! So as long as this works for us I don't see anything wrong with just keeping it simple. Is it just the cdma and gsm variants that are different? Just trying to understand this so that I can say I learned something new today! Lol I will say that I am thrilled that you and the TWRP team work so fast and have made huge developments in device recoveries. I thank you for the work that you have done here! Much respect....

So far Edge is different between CDMA and GSM, and non-edge CDMA and GSM. So really 4 variants. But one of the big issues seems to be the disparate firmware or OEO issues that people are having flashing the versions I have released. It's hard to get a straight story between real issues and OEO.

Well, I have not really had much time to flash anything on this new device but everything that I have has been fine. I will keep you posted in your main thread if I run into any issues but thanks for the response!
I'm wondering what the process for the Pixel devices is, and if anyone has had any success with existing tools/SuperSU.
It's running 7.1 if that's relevant.

The same way you root other phones, flash custom recovery and supersu.

I guess I have to wait for custom recoveries that support this phone then? I can't see a build for TWRP that supports sailfish.

You'll first need to unlock the bootloader and then wait for chainfire's magic. It is possible to root through fastboot also so there is a good chance that you'll get root before a custom recovery.
Due to seamless updates, things have changed a bit so it'll take some time to be figured out

Buy it directly from Google and the bootloader won't be locked, only if you buy it through a carrier like Verizon will the bootloader be locked

This is the first device with Android's new partition layout. Having looked at the firmwares and at running devices (remotely), I have some ideas on how to do it.
However, it will be a while before I have SuperSU fixed up. The changes will be quite a bit of work and testing, and doing so remotely will make that take significantly longer. So I'm just going to wait for my own device, but as they aren't available in my country, it has to be shipped from another country and go through customs. I don't expect my device to arrive for another week or two.
In the meantime, it's always possible someone else releases root for it.
I saw @jcase and @Dees_Troy have been playing with TWRP, to me it seems wholly possible to fix that up (mostly) as well. But even if TWRP is released tomorrow, using the existing SuperSU ZIP will not work on it, due to all the breaking changes in Android 7.1.
Will be interesting if you can do it CF... Looking forward to release - Ill send a donation your way when done

If your intent was truly altruistic, you wouldn't feel the "burden" of stating it publicly. So no, it doesn't matter.

Appreciate all you do Chainfire, seriously. Can't wait for you to work your magic
Ah its so funny to what people write after all these years of people spending their own time to work out back doors and exploits to enable root / Xposed / Custom bootloaders / Kernels / Recoveries.
People can't just wait and see and if the devs ask for help or testers just be part of it, throwing a few dollars at them is not going to push things forward . . . let them do what they want to do its their project / baby and it will happen when it does.
Support the devs after the fact dont try and attempt to influence them into it with beer money.
Some of y'all are ridiculous! The guy made a harmless statement and didn't mean anything negative by it. And what do all of the analytical geekers do? Just that... Analyze his comment to the bone and find all sorts of self-serving intent within it. Blows my mind...

Oh shut up. What a stupid thing to say. People are excited about dev work, and if they suggest a donation, what do you care? Why is it any of your business? If the dev has a problem with people providing positive feedback and offering donations, they will make it known.

Hey I've unlocked my bootloader, but with the different partition layout and file based encryption (assuming this device uses that), is there any chance I'll have to erase my data and start over for root?
Because I got the 128GB model and I'm ready to start filling up with apps and keep a big portion of my Google Play music library to save on data and everything but I don't want to do it if there's a real possibility I'll have to erase everything if to achieve root.
I guess it is possible to use a custom recovery (once they come out) to backup, but that'll be a huge backup if I start keeping all my music to the device.

What ever but tour the same guys who's going to be asking for OTAs and asking devs to do this that and the other as fast as humanly possible.
If you want it that bad do it your self or sit and wait like a good little child.
No dev is going to rush something because of some people in a forum get a grip, like I said it's their time and it will be ready when it's ready.
You might think I'm going off on one but read the rules page for Christ's sakes.

The chance you'll have to erase is always present when rooting. Even when your device is fully prepared something may go wrong. At least you have already unlocked your bootloader, which reduces that chance.
File-based encryption will probably not be a reason to for wiping, though. It works fine in the dev version of SuperSU with Android 7.0 on a 5X.
Hey guys. Found this on the interwebs and was wondering how valid it is. http://www.technobuzz.net/root-google-pixel-xl/
Seeing as it calls for twrp which is not yet available, would flashfire work?
