I have the same thing on my galaxy tab. It's the "you suck at loading software" screen lol from my understanding its still the Download mode screen.
You have to use odin or heimdall to load a new Rom.

Do you have a link to a stock rom download ? P1000 ?
I can`t seem to find one that is completly stock :S

Go here and download gbsafe_v5. Zip
It has everything you need including drivers and odin files
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317384
Also download overcome-kernel_4. 0.tar file as well.
Once you downloaded these two files plug in your tab to usb and wait for that phone and pc screen.
Go here and follow steps up to 10.

Your phone is now stock'ish GB with OC'ed kernel including custom clockwork recovery. This version also comes with phone capabilities unlocked so you can use it like a real phone. All you have to do is load tmobile. Modem file

[RECOVERY][ROOT] Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini LTE (GT-I9195)

WARNING! ONLY USE THIS ON THE GT-I9195 MODEL!
Hello all S4 Mini owners!
I'm happy to finally release ClockworkMod recovery and an insecure kernel for the GT-I9195. With these two installed on your device, obtaining root is easy.
Attached to this post is the necessary files needed for this task. Download the following files:
Odin_v3.09.zip (if you don't have it already)
recovery-clockwork-6.0.5.1-serranoltexx.tar.zip
S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip (contains SuperSU v1.89 and BusyBox v1.21.1) ONLY FOR STOCK ROM! NOT FOR CM OR OTHER AOSP BASED ROMS!
Extract recovery-clockwork-6.0.5.1-serranoltexx.tar.zip file to your computer.
The procedure is as:
Copy the " S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip" to your device SD card.
Turn off the phone.
Press and hold home, volume down and power. Download screen should appear.
Connect USB cable, and press volume up.
Start Odin, uncheck "F. Reset Time", and then click AP button.
Select "recovery-clockwork-6.0.5.1-serranoltexx.tar.md5" file that you previously extracted, and press Start button. The phone will reboot when finished.
After the phone resets (it vibrates) IMMEDIATELY hold volume up and home buttons to boot into recovery mode.
Select the option to install the ZIP file you have previously copied to your device and begin flashing it.
After flashing using CWM, reboot into system and enjoy your rooted device.
Optional: Flash GT-I9195_Kernel_v1.zip (Only for Android 4.2.2, not KitKat) to use a custom stock kernel, which might fix battery drain for some.
Kernel changelog: https://github.com/arco/android_kernel_samsung_msm8930-common/commits/stock
If you get warnings about applications doing not permitted actions, delete the following files from system/app, or let SuperSU fix it for you.
KNOXAgent.apk
KNOXStore.apk
ContainerAgent.apk

[OFF-TOPIC] What do you think about releasing a second CM9/CM10 EOL for our old Galaxy W to include the MasterKey exploit patches? I don't think it's a good idea to leave us with security risks [/OFF-TOPIC]

Quick question before I root it, what do you mean by "insecure"? Certainly not shy, but as in unstable or as in unsafe?

Insecure is needed for rooting, not unsafe or unstable. As far as I know, it removes some security-thingies added by Samsung. For normal use, this shouldn't make a difference.
Correct me if I'm wrong please

An insecure kernel has disabled the root prevention checks that Samsung added. Other than that it's the same as stock kernel. Although in this kernel I also made two minor changes to allow apps to read the kernel log and the full logcat.

No, all your stuff will still be there.

Thanks for the effort! I'm building a similar package for the I9192 (the dual sim variant, a.k.a "serranods") and I was wondering if you made any serious changes to the kernel except the usual ramdisk rooting changes (ro.secure, adbd binary, su binary etc.)
I'm going to release an insecured kernel based on the dual sim stock kernel, but I'm probably going to reuse the recovery. I expect the two platforms to be very similar in terms of recovery support (drivers, libraries, recovery kernel, partition layout etc.) and I know you can't make any implicit or explicit claims that the recovery won't brick any another model or variant than the one you made the release for. However, I expect no issues whatsoever as the hardware is identical except the modem, so I'll let you guys know.
Cheers,
C.

I follow the first steps but I always get stuck at the beginning. I only get a screen with "downloading.... Do not turn off target!!" it does not matter what buttons I push. On top it says "odin mode" in red, some product info and then it says "Wrtie protection: Enable".
Any suggestions?

@charliebigpot: That's normal. When that screen appears, connect your device and start ODIN. Then, in ODIN, your device should be detected and you can start flashing. If you still need more info, please search the forum. In any event, you don't have a problem (yet)...
Cheers,

Thank You for the hard work, it work perfectly for me.
I was able to restore my Angry Birds Stars wars Backup which is a life saver for me .
One little thing, I keep getting a notification that says :
"Device Information :
The device as detected an application attempting unpermitted actions. To protect your device, it is recommended you reboot."
So I hit reboot and it reboot in "recovery mode" instead of normal boot.
So I hit reboot in recovery mode and get back on the system, but the notification comes back a few minutes later.
Can somone help me fix that ?
Frem.
PS : The only actions I did after rooting is installing "supersuer" app, then using "ES file explorer" activate root access, to copy angry birds backup, then deactivate "ES file explorer" root access

dsixda's Android Kitchen files
THANKS MATE FOR GREAT JOB!
Now, if some1 can produce dsixda's Android Kitchen files for i9195, it would be awesome!

Delete KNOX apps (containing KNOX in their name), I think there are 3 of them, in system/apps, that would do it. You can use ES file explorer of course with root permissions

Thank you jba.33a that worked perfectly .
One last question a friend of mine told me that "rooting my phone" will stop it from getting the samsung "official updates".
Is that true ?
If it is true, is there a easy way around it like rooting it back ?
Thanks again for the hard work arco68.

[Recovery]【T210R & T210】 Unofficial CWM Adv. Edition PhilZ Touch

This is an old unofficial version. Please go to THIS thread for the updated, official version.
All information below this line pertains to the old, unofficial version. Use the link above to get the official version.
Updated (v2) Slow recovery bootup fixed.
This is an unofficial version of CWM Advanced/PhilZ Touch recovery. Main thread located HERE. Go to the main thread to learn about all the features.
It uses the zImage and ramdisk provided by @ketut.kumajaya with a few tweaks to get it working made by myself.
Please take a moment to say thanks and/or donate to @ketut.kumajaya for helping us out.
It takes a few seconds longer for CWM based recoveries to boot than the stock recovery, so be patient.
Credits go to:
@Phil3759 for the advanced features
@ketut.kumajaya for the working zImage
and of course Koush and the CyanogenMod team
Link to kernel source https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt02
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If the on-screen menu doesn't show, hit one of the up/down buttons at the bottom to get it to appear. This is the same issue seen with CWM recovery and is caused by booting into recovery with the key combo. I highly recommend using the Quick Boot app or another software method of booting recovery.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Instructions:
1. Download ODIN on your computer.
2. Power off the device.
3. Restart in "Download Mode" by holding the "HOME" button, "Volume Down" and "Power" all at the same time (for about 5 seconds).
4. Hit the "Volume Up" to enter download mode.
5. Start the ODIN exe program. Un-check Auto Reboot. See notes about ODIN below.
6. Connect the device via USB to your computer. Verify the device shows as "Added" in the Message box. If it doesn't show then you need the Samsung USB drivers (just install KIES to get them).
7. Select "PDA" then choose the recovery file you want to flash.
8. Hit "START". Wait for Odin to finish (~10-15 seconds). The message area will display "RES OK" when finished.
9. Wait for device to restart. Skip this step if you unchecked auto reboot.
10. Restart directly to recovery mode before rebooting into OS.(Hold POWER, Volume UP, and the HOME button all at the same time. When you see the Samsung Logo, let go of the POWER button, but keep holding the Volume UP and HOME until you see the recovery screen).
11. To get the Internal SDcard to be recognized properly, choose the Advanced option; then touch the "Storage set to" option. It should change from "/data/media/0" to "data/media/". Then reboot recovery using the "Power Options".
I also recommend adjusting the Menu Height to a smaller value using the PhilZ settings option.
Notes about ODIN
--Make sure that "Re-Partition" is NOT checked.
--Auto Reboot can be un-checked if the recovery doesn't flash correctly on your device. Some have reported that un-checking Auto Reboot fixes this issue. If you un-check Auto Reboot, you will need to reboot the device yourself (refer back to step 10).
Instructions for recovery flashable version:
Boot into your previously installed custom recovery.
Select the Install Zip option.
Find the recovery zip.
Flash.
Reboot recovery.
Enjoy your new recovery.

Main Menu

Downloaded and installed. What i found so far is that it reacts little slow and the time in the status bar is gone in lockscreen.... After unlocking clock comes back in status bar.
Cant change GUI height correctly, all the time i touch GUI it increases the value only...

I'm not sure what you mean about the time. It is not supposed to be in the status bar on the lock screen, and that has nothing to do with this recovery.

In regards to it reacting slowly, since you complained about that with TWRP also, I believe that is a problem with your tablet. I can't imagine it working any faster on mine. Every selection is immediate.
Keep increasing the gui height until it goes to a lower value (around 100 it switches).

Hi, i have a t217A tab 3 7.0 and it has a msm8960 cpu not the msm8930 you mentioed earlier, which shows up under cpuz as a Krait 1.73 gighz
when i boot to recovery it says encrypted and the flash fails. im guessing i need a diffrent version. is there a current build for the touch screen recovery for this version already made and in place ? if so could someone link me ?
and i had a q , you mention that this should be flashed via already flashed recovery , is this mandatory or can i flash the touch version via odin straight away ? do i need to flash the regular non touch recovery then flash the touch or can i get away with directly flashing the touch recovery without first flashing the non touch?
I have rooted already , the method on this forum worked for the t217A
thanks

Thanks for the report, will look into it.

Hey @ketut.kumajaya, it seems the touchscreen needs to be rotated for this one. I would attempt to fix it, but we all know you can do it much, much better (and I don't want to start all over without your kernel source)
EDIT: I used the new zImage from the 1.8 T210(R) version in my T210(R) TWRP and the touchpoints are off in it as well. Looks like the previous touch orientation fix you made got overwritten with the new update.
Looks like it only needs to be rotated clockwise 90 degrees (not flipped, just rotated).

Not true...your internal SDcard is mounted as "/data/media". Navigate to that folder and you will find everything on your internal card. You will have to hit the "Up one level" button to find it.
EDIT: I will add a note to the OP about this.

Now that there's root and recovery, has anyone flashed a successful ROM for the T211?

Didnt test all the function yet...but stable for daily use, still laggy sometimes, I wonder when we got official 4.2 or skip to 4.4? Anyhow, just test the rom yourself based on cuŕiosity..

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 Smoky Titanium (SM-T350) XAR/USA only!!!

If anyone needs help or advice, then post in this thread. I own this device and I have tried everything and I'll use that knowledge to those who need help. I am currently working on a Cyanogenmod rom for this device.

@Jonathan Kang
Spread your SM-T350 knowledge in this thread too if you can.

i'm new to this forum, but I've received an OTA update or maybe 4 updates and I'm wondering if I should take them? I just got this tab and it has T350XXU1BPE3 Marshmallow on it already. I would like to Root this and perhaps put a ROM on it, but I'm concerned about Samsung Locking the bootloader and keeping me from doing that.
The new updates are:
T350XXU1BPE3, T350XAR1BPE3, T350XXU1BPI2 & T350XAR1BPI1
Also, how do I root it and are there any good ROMs built for it?

do some research of this topic on your own before you take a look at it. YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you, all, at the same time.
Ok, T350XXU1BPE3 is the XAR version. But anyways, you said you want to root it. There is no unlock bootloaders for Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.
If you haven't, go to Settings > About Device > Build Number (tap it 7 times until it says Developer Mode)
You will see the Developer Mode settings on the settings bar. Click on that and CheckMark the USB debugging mode.
First: Go to this link and download TWRP for SM-T350 (Lollipop version of TWRP is better than the updated Marshmallow version of TWRP. The Marshmallow version of TWRP has many unsolved bugs.)
Flash this via ODIN. Download ODIN
Turn off your Samsung Device and then go to Download mode (Vol. Down + Power + Home Button) then plug in the USB to PC and the device. ODIN will say, Device Added! Press AP slot and find the TWRP file. Then press Start. It should say RESET OK! Then your device should reboot. If it says failed, REPLY BACK TO ME. These are the methods I have done it and it works awesomely.
Second: Download SuperSU
If you've downloaded the file from the PC transfer the file to any desired folder you want. (Ex: Downloads, Music, etc.)
If you've downloaded the file from the Tablet itself, you should be able to find the file in the downloads section, unless you changed the download file destination.
So turn off your device then go to Recovery Mode (Vol. Up + Power + Home Button) [Don't get mixed up with Download mode!!!]
Then, press the Install slot and locate the SuperSU file from your desired location and press the file. It should say, Do You Want To Flash This File? Swipe right to flash the file. After installing, don't Wipe Cache/Dalvik and Reboot Device. If TWRP asks you to install TWRP DON'T LET IT!!!
Your device should now reboot.
Congrats you have Root.
Reply back to me if you want a Permissive Kernel so you could use and download ViPER4Android for Music FX, and etc.
If you want to know how to install Xposed (for modules such as Youtube Background) reply back to me also. I have a SM-T350 and I would be appreciated to help you and others.
If you want a custom rom for this Tablet, reply back to me also.
I am making a Cyanogenmod for SM-T350, so hitting that Thanks button will contribute me to working harder for all of you guys.
Hit the Thanks button if I have helped you and others!!!
Peace out.

Wow! Thanks for all the detail! For future reference I have and know how to use Odin, ADB/Fastboot, etc. But I really appreciate your help! I don't have time tonight to do this, But I will on Wednesday and will get my Tab rooted with TWRP installed.
Just curious, is the CM your building Nougat by chance? That would be just too cool!
Thanks again!

The CM rom should be based on Nougat. Also I would be porting the rom, so not really creating. Glad I helped! If you need any more help, just feel free to ask, that's what this thread is here for.

Those who need a [UNOFFICIAL] Rom for SM-T350. This is highly experimental and is under process of developing.
EVERVOLV (Not maintained by me but by @elginsk8r): http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...volv-galaxy-tab-sm-t350-t3411150#post67607709
Description: It is based on the AOSP project and it is running on a pretty much a Pure-Android experience.

TWRP for SM-T350: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/development/recovery-t3426560
Download Lollipop version of TWRP because it works with Third-Party apps.
The Marshmallow version of TWRP is under development by @ashyx and is also not compatible with Third-Party apps yet.

Have you ever heard of ViPER4Android? In order to run with the best features, then you will need a Permissive Kernel. SeLinux Changer doesn't work with Samsung Marshmallow. (It worked with Lollipop though) In order to get a Permissive Kernel for SM-T350 go to this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/development/kernel-galaxy-tab-sm-t555-5-8-2016-t3433560
It is not developed by me, I just put links that will be useful for SM-T350 users, but it was created by @ashyx. Flash it through ODIN!
Happy Flashing! (Please flash it after flashing TWRP if you haven't done so. Also, use the AP slot and choose the .tar file. If it is not extracted from .zip or some other file, extract it, if it's not a .tar)

Sure, I will help you, also have you checked out that EVERVOLV rom in the previous posts? Check that out and it is still in beta. It is not maintained by me, but by @elginsk8r. I, currently am working on a Nougat build which will be Cyanogenmod or maybe, I will make a new OS called AnKore (Korean if you move the An to the back of Kore, cause I am South Korean).
Anyways, good luck in the Android World now!

Good to hear that some body work on Android n for this device. Simple is the best.

Quick question will this work on a sm-t357t

Under progress, I have a lot of tests and quizzes for schools, stacked with homework too, so the project will be held back and probably will be finished by the end of February or during the summer. I am working very hard and I am putting more features than the original Cyanogen roms. I will announce after I finish.
@Xdevillived666
The status of the rom is:
Camera working
Themes are working sometimes and sometimes not
Home button is sometimes responsive
NavBar support
ViPER4Android working well (I don't like AudioFX that much)
Screen works perfectly, meaning it's responsive
Lag issues
Game rendering
Spoofing Google Play Store so you can install applications that are incompatible
Nougat Version AOSP, meaning untouched by any bloatware from Samsung
Gallery is unresponsive because of framework
Camera runs smoothly, but may need more options for photography
More to be added! This is just what is in my mind.

I followed the steps in the post above about rooting, but something isn't working correctly.
I installed Odin and flashed the tar file for TWRP. When I reboot into recovery (holding home, power, and up) I get the standard android recovery. I tried to flash the SuperSU file from there just in case and it fails with an invalid signature.
Is there something I missed along the way? I've flashed things with Odin before and didn't really see anything here that seems any different. The flashing in Odin was all boilerplate, passed and saw "RES OK" and the device rebooted.
My tablet is fine, but I can't installed SuperSU!
Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, I am not done with the CM, but what exactly do you mean, "what device would I use for the port device?"
