Any custom rims for this device yet? Maybe a Pixel Experience ROM?

Any news on rom development by chance?, Just curious thanks.

It will take a big while before custom ROMs, don't expect them too soon

Hello everyone, I only have one question, besides the Twrp and the vbmeta_disabled_R.tar do you also need to flash a Multidisabler via Odin? Thank you.

You just need to go to advanced then open terminal in TWRP, and type multidisabler, then wait, then type it again.

I wish there was a very easy way to patch AP to keep TWRP after a dirty flash manual upgrade.

1.Easiest option - Go with custom ROM (If available)
2.Second easy, modify AP and patch it.
Extract all the contents of AP file - delete recoevry and vbmeta images - Repack as tar (You can use 7zip or similar) - Patch it with magisk
After flashing, straightway go to TWRP - and apply multidisabler before booting device.

This would clear the User data / Accounts also, yeah ?
@afaneh92 _ Bro, I think the existing TWRP doesnt mount Data on the Newest March Security Patch.
I had no issues with the February Firmware.
Could you have a look ?

You asked for dirty flash trick right? If erasing data and acc then it's not dirty flash.
I don't have any issue on March secure patch

What could be causing this issue?
Did a full stock flash as well, and repeated the TWRP process.

[RECOVERY][Realme 6 Pro] TWRP Recovery [Stable]

Reserved

Good work, i was trying to find a proper TWRP for my Realme 6 Pro from lasat week.
Until now i was able to flash updates or downgrades just via Realme Flash Tool.
Do we still need to flash vbmeta_v2 in order for TWRP to work properly?
Testing now.
Update:
It does need the OF_avb-patcher.zip tp be flashed in order to keep TWRP after restart and to decrypt MPT storage and phone corectly.
I did not flashed it and all the time got stuck in a boot loop and TWRP and all phone remained encrypted, was not able to do anything until i flashed Stock Rom via Realme Flash Tool.
Disclaimer: Flashing Stock Rom will make TWRP gone, to preserve it, follow the steps:
1. Flash Stock ROM .ozip
2. Flash patched-vbmeta-v2.img
3. Flash TWRP from above link
4. Flash OF_avb_patcher.zip
6. Flash Magisk via TWRP (If required)
7. Done

The same issue i was getting with the previous TWRP versions, cannot access MTP storage. Also while phone on, cannot copy anything on storage.

Please provide screenshots of your problem. I assume that you are trying to copy files to an encrypted internal storage. Decrypt /data or copy files to SD card

Is this compatible with build number RMX2061_11_A.35? Thank you!

:good:

Can't delete file from phone with root explorer so i tried with TWRP as usualy and for the first time IT DOESNT WORK!! Never seen that before. Though system's not mounted as read only. What to do..?

Do nothing. vendor, product and system partitions are R/O, because they are part of new type partition named "super". It is dynamic partition that is not editable.

You can test, but make full backup and know how to recover soft brick by reflashing stock recovery/firmware.

tank you. But recover soft brick possible whit fastboot?

No, samsung disabled fastboot by default.

If I don't care about flashing in TWRP (yet) can I just flash recovery and see it running? (Basically is the wipe data optional)

To clarify, US tab s7+ (SM-T970N) snapdragon requires the paid token unlock before this can be flashed?

I have rooted my SM-T870 by inserting Magisk into AP file and flashing it with odin. Only problem is that now i have in magisk A/B - NO. Which means my partitions are not flashed. I run into problems trying to execute some root programs where they crash since they dont have access to both partitions. Is there any way to root partition A/B?

So TB-8504F has a touchscreen issue where you need to sleep and wakeup recovery after it boots for touch to work. Like what @ZONTAC mentioned earlier. I was able to fix it on TWRP 3.6.2 that I built for testing. I would imagine it would work for PBRP as well. It does not affect TB-8504X which is why its not commonly seen. The F variant is not as popular. I have not tested it on 8504X mind you but I don't think that flag will be needed by it.

If you have build so i can test it on my tab(8504x)

Do You have any idea?
Freshly flashed stock, there everything works, but I cannot flash any ROM - tried both crDroid, RR and Ubuntu. Always same error.
Strange is it mounts system at first... And after formatting it can be mounted again, but than I got error, cos no image is there to be patched, I believe?

Follow proper processor
In your case :- if you are coming from stock , 1. mount system in stock recovery
2.flash pbrp/twrp
3. do factory wipe(or reset)
4. do advance wipe in which wipe system, cache, delvick ,data
5.after that flash system
6. Still having problem try d/f twrp or contact rom dev

Did a test boot without flashing. System starts but hangs on many tasks, even restarting to other modes hangs the system. My device reports as tb_8504x. I had problem with flashing through TWRP so I wanted to try PBRB.

Hello, I got PBRP to boot into recovery, I have OEM bootloader unlocked and USB debugging enabled. I'm trying to completely format the tablet to install LineageOS 18. When I wipe the process gets stuck on "Formatting system using mke2fs". It's been on it for about an hour now. Is that normal? The device is responsive. I can hold the power button down and get reboot options. I can force a reboot and get back into the recovery and try again but each time it gets halted at the format stage. What should I do?

Note2: If you got bootloop on Samsung logo, reboot to TWRP and wipe metadata from Advanced Wipe section

You have no idea how excited I got when I saw this. I'm going to try this first thing tomorrow and post my results! One question though; When you said "You need a custom permissive kernel to boot with R/W vendor.", is that the one that you've linked in the initial post?

Hello ,
Is it possible with this twrp version to use the sd card also ? Thank you for your answer .

I see magisk v25 change log mentions
Fix vb meta extraction implementation.
So does that mean magisk v25 will disable vb meta automatically now?

I belive so. IIRC, if you've rooted your tablet by patching the AP file with Magisk and flashed it in Odin, then vbmeta should already be disabled. Magisk, and therefore root, will still persist even after a factory data reset because your device is running Magisk as a system app.

Finally awake. Gonna go ahead and flash TWRP on my Tab S8+ and share my results!

I come baring results. I flashed TWRP and vbmeta in Odin as described in the initial post, and it booted into TWRP! However, the good news ends there. The touch screen doesn't seem to work when in TWRP, and interestingly, when I have the keyboard attachment on, the install button darkens as if I'm pressing it no matter what I do on the trackpad. I've tried rebooting the tablet by holding pow + vol- but all it does is reboot once and then put me back in TWRP. I can use ADB to go into download mode, but I can't boot back to Android. Looks like I'm gonna need to flash my patched firmware and try again when this gets fixed. For context, I flashed the gts8p TWRP tar because I have a Tab S8+, but the WIFI only variant (X800), which is in the supported versions list, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've tried rebooting the tablet by holding pow + vol- but all it does is reboot once and then put me back in TWRP. I can use ADB to go into download mode, but I can't boot back to Android. Looks like I'm gonna need to flash my patched firmware and try again when this gets fixed. For context, I flashed the gts8p TWRP tar because I have a Tab S8+, but the WIFI only variant (X800), which is in the supported versions list, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

How do I do that? Is it a command I can run in adb?

Wow, I asked for firmware folder from vendor not the whole vendor.

Ohhhhhhhhhh, I'm sorry LOL. When you said vendor/firmware I assumed you said to upload the vendor folder OR the firmware folder. I'll remember that for next time. XD

・ If it's your first time or you're unexperienced with flashing ROMS, please do some search before flashing!
・ YOU are choosing to make these modifications, you're the only responsible guy for messing up if you do so.
(unless i messed up something, but since it works for me, it shouldn't be an issue from the rom builder (me)
Known Bugs :
- Fingerprint
- Mobile Data & Microphone in voice calls
Notes:
Do NOT flash gapps (MicroG included, make sure to enable them when you're setting up after you just installed)
I do not work for or under the calyx institute.
This build was mainly made for myself, so i don't promise maintaining, maybe in my free time tho.
(27/04/2023) Updated the link to the new build from Yairzar (Thanks for the fixed build! My branch was kinda broken/messy as i'm a beginner.)

New Clean flashing tutorial :
!YOU NEED ADB/FASTBOOT TOOLS!
1. Flash the latest TWRP/OFOX and boot on the recovery.
2. go in "Format Data/Factory Reset". (DOING THIS STEP WILL WIPE YOUR DATA) after you did,
3. on your computer, open cmd (or terminal) in the folder where the zip is located
4. push the zip file to tmp by using
Code:
adb push calyx_venus-ota-eng.yair.zip tmp/
5. go in "Install", then go up a level, then search the folder 'tmp" and find the zip file, then flash it. you don't need gapps since there's microG as a replacement HOWEVER games will NOT correctly work on it (google play services don't work)
Dirty Flashing / Updating tutorial :
1. Reboot to Recovery
2. on your computer, open CMD (or terminal) in the folder where the .zip is located
3.Flash the zip by doing "adb sideload calyx_venus-ota-eng.yair.zip"[/SPOILER]
Spoiler: Old flash tutorial
Clean Flashing / Installation tutorial :

!YOU NEED ADB/FASTBOOT TOOLS!
1. Make sure you're on the latest MIUI (atleast 13.0.X)
2. Reboot to TWRP / OFOX and go to "Format Data/Factory Reset". (DOING THIS STEP WILL WIPE YOUR DATA) after you did,
3. reboot to Bootloader, and, on your computer, open CMD (or terminal) in the folder where the .zip is located
4. Flash the zip by doing "fastboot update calyx_venus-img-eng.mir.zip"
Dirty Flashing / Updating tutorial :
1. Reboot to Fastboot/Bootloader
2. on your computer, open CMD (or terminal) in the folder where the .zip is located
3.Flash the zip by doing "fastboot update calyx_venus-img-eng.mir.zip"
After you did, while flashing, it should reboot you to the legacy bootloader, the very old fastboot. it's normal, and then it should continue flashing until it's done. Enjoy!

great job!

Just updated it, as camera and volume +/- weren't working, because some files were missing or empty in the vendor files of my tree.

Good question, i haven't tried, and i don't think that it would work since it doesn't use officla Gapps, it instead uses MicroG, for a better privacy.

The download link doesn't work... File does not exist..
