Information about Installation.Before all:
Backup all, system, data, personal data, copy all your internal storage to a secure place.
Prerequisites / First time installation of TWRP:
Device with TWRP installed -> twrp-3.0.2-0 twrp-3.1.1-0 twrp-3.1.1-0 If you need explanations how to do this:
Download "Exmely_vx.x.xbT58x.zip" (see download section) and put it on your ExtSDCard.
Follow steps from 1 to 3 at How to installing TWRP
4- Download and install Odin3_v3.12.3
5- Download and install SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.62.0 (Sept 2016)
Follow steps from 6 to 10 at How to installing TWRP
You are now in TWRP recovery, follow next steps below.
Installation:
If your internal storage is encrypted, format it > [Wipe]/[FormatData], type "yes". (if you're just installed TWRP it will be encrypted).
If your internal storage is not encrypted normally it will not be erased but make a backup for security.
In TWRP, [Wipe]/[AdvancedWipe] check "System", "Data", "Cache", "Dalvik/Art cache" (Don't check Micro SDCard !!).
In the home screen of TWRP, tap on [Install], [Select Storage] where Extremely Rom is stocked, select "Exmely_vx.x.xb85x.zip" then [Swipe to confirm Flash] and wait until ending.
Reboot to System, don't be afraid, with SuperSu you get 2 time boot.
Be patient, deodexed rom take long time for the first start 2-4 min (and every time you wipe Dalvik/Art cache).
Optional procedures to deactivate useless functionality / enhance performance.
(If you do not know what it is, or you want to keep all the functionality, just skip this step)
After the configuration of your Android system, you can use "DisabledPackage.xml" in your SDCard, to import in Package Disabler 1.x.x app, this is the list of packages that will be frozen. There is lot of apps that not essentials for me but may be usefull for others, you can defrost at any time to get they functionality working again.
Important note, when you import the XML file, the app start directly to freeze the packages and your device seem blocked, just wait 1-2 min and the process will end.
I have deliberately not permanently removed the "packages" of this list to allow some people to have features that are currently not useful to me, such as: "NearbyServices, QuickConnect, PrintServices, ScreenMirroring, Smartview, GameOptimization, etc . . .", I preferred this way so as to be able to activate these according to the future needs. At first boot, none of these packages are frozen, it is necessary to use the soft included in the rom as indicated above.
Some reminders: A frozen application does not appear in the system, is not available in the application list of the phone, consumes no resources and can not be launched by the system.
Apps replacements.Important:
This Rom come without any Internet Browser, Calculator, Calendar, Mail, Music & Video player, Photo/video editing. Download your favorite with GPlay or you can use these free light apps or see also "SamApp" in the download section, for the original Samsung applications.
SpeakerBoost, I advise not to exceed 10% boost (no pub).
VIA Browser Internet browser (no pub).
RealCalc Scientific Calculator (no pub).
AFWall+ (Android Firewall +) Powerful graphic user interface for integrated iptable firewall (no pub).
Google Agenda (no pub).
K-9 Mail Mail Client multi-account (no pub).
VLC Audio & Video player (no pub).
AutoStart Manager use it carefully, sometimes apps with auto-start need that turned on at boot to maintain some useful activity, ex: "IU syst.", "MTP application", "Bluetooth" . . . (Pub at launch).

I think Spain language is not fully supported, but is inside.
In manufacturer add directory there is no specific place for Spanish language but only for mentioned country.
anyway, let me know if Spanish language is ok ? (i've seen Catalan in configuration steps ...).
wow, very nice rom! all working nicely so far! but im afraid to update supersu to 2.82, will i loose data in twrp then, yeah?

Concerning SuperSU 2.82,
there is this thread that say that is not fully functional.
There is another post where you can find all the files needed to proceed upgrading
I have tested the last file SuperSU 2.82-Test1 for the fun and surprisingly, it work well with SM-t580 under Extremely_V1.0 rom . . . No need using NoEncryption patch after update 2.82
A screenshot (in french) of it below . . . really, i would have thought that it does not work or that it is problematic with the anti-encryption patch, but not everything seems to work properly, (first boot look strange with Samsung logo freezing but after a while it goes on). I noticed a better responsiveness of the root access function, especially when accessing the lock screen (password or schema), the same with some applications.
I don't put information on main thread about this because i prefer waiting for an official final version of SuperSU but for those who want to try . . . do what you want and be curious ^^ as always BACKUP save your life !!!
[edit]: Tested with: TWRP 3.1.0.0 and TWRP 3.1.1.0 same results, working well on both with a big lag on 1st reboot (Samsung Logo).
.
I'm using 2.82 on my T580 with Nougat, specifically SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742

superSU is better in most cases, actually for Samsung devices, though newest Magisk seems improvement.
If SM-T580 has Chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon instead of Exynos, this ROM would work on SM-T350 variants too...ohh well, wait for Nougat release for SM-T350 then:good:
Nice work by the way, but I would not debloated it way too much as many of new Samsung UX features depends on some apps...

Sure, actually SuperSu work better than Magisk on samsung devices. but in the future we will see.
I think T580 will never embeded with a Qualcomm cpu because Exynos is made by Samsung itself then they prefer using it.
I don't know anythink about the T350 but when nougat was ready it will be a good thing.
Concerning debloating, you can take note that i've keeped all functionality in this rom, i 've only provided a way to freeze them when these not used.
All deleted package are not necessary for these to work.

Thanks for the information, i currently testing over the time to be sure that all is ok with it.
If you want to upgrade your TWRP, you can do, there is no big difference from 3.1.0.0 to 3.1.1.0.
I can provide you TWRP 3.1.1.0 in TWRP format to skip "Odin" update process . . .

Installation and Download aand Notes
Important :
- This will void warranty.
- As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help. (hope in future we can get it working on tripped knox device)
- OTA won't work once you root device.
- ROM Tool permission : Files & media - To save and read files, Calendar - Tool needs some time monitoring to avoid using RT immediately after reboot. Special access for accessibility service - Since Android 12 it requires for QS panel custom Toggl e.g. Reboot to recovery
Installation :
Read ChangeLog post for Installation instructions (link on post #3)
PS : Who can handle consequences of dirty flashing, they never need to ask this question in forum. If you dirty install then handle it yourself .

ChangeLog Q01 For N986B
- Based on N986BXXU1ATH3 1Aug security patch
ROM features are same as mention on Post #1
Some Important things to note -
This ROM is tested only on N986B If any N985 users want to test, can try on your own risk. Report outcome and I may try to fix.
TWRP is Included in ROM itself. Credit & Thanks to Geiti for TWRP
This is first version and needs to flash using Odin, subsequent version may have different scenario. Read Installation guide below for details
This is first release, There may be more fix/features there in subsequest releases.
Recommended Installation Steps
Requirement :
- Rooted N986B based on Aug security patch
- It is must to have root using Full AP Magisk + Patched kernel shown on this thread. If you have rooted with only patched kernel then you must first root with full AP magisk patch file + Patched kernel as shown on linked thread.
- Odin 3.14.4 or above
Installation :
- Backup your data, this procedure will erase all data including Int storage.
- Download N986B_DrKetan_ROM_Q0*.zip and extract to PC
- Boot device to download mode (Switch Off device - Keep holding Vol Up + Down & connect to PC with USB)
- Open Odin - Disable Auto Reboot in Option
- Click AP tab and navigate to file you have downloaded & extracted N986B_DrKetan_ROM_Q0*.tar.md5
- Click Start and when it completes, disconnect mobile and keep holding Vol down+Side Key for 7 sec, as soon as device screen goes off, use combo key to reboot to recovery
- Now you will have TWRP - Select Wipe - click FORMAT DATA - You need to type "yes" to continue
- When finish, Reboot to system
ROM specific Instructions.
Once device boot to android, straightway do following things before setting up device further
Check Magisk Manager is installed. If there, Open it and complete environment setup (Device must be connected to internet) - Reboot. In case Magisk Manager not installed, get latest stable from magisk gut hub and install manually and follow as said.
Open Magisk, settings - enable magisk hide. Also recommended to turn of supersu notification while setting up.
Open ROM Tool - It will ask to Apply Essential Fix, Complete it and Reboot.
Now you can set up your device as per your desire. Enjoy!
Tips, Add On & Fix
- Stuck while flashing something (Bootloop), How can I reboot to download
There is a golden rule that always works when you stuck anywhere (bootloop). Follow this -
1.Plugin device to PC
2.Keep holding power + vol down
3.As soon as screen goes blank, keep holding vol up + vol down (here you needs to be quick)
And you are in download mode.
- EdXposed You can directly install from Magisk download repositories
- Unable to login to samsung ac : I have observed recently in one condition, restoring a backup that includes samsung acc. I have encountered this once and fixed by installing Samsung Members and logged in with that. By using this app, it showing "your session is expired login again" after this it was worked. Another possibility is, few users have reported some version of custom kernel was causing issue with samsung acc.
- Read ROM Tool - Update & Fix if any new available.
Download and other instructions available in post #2
This is a customized ROM and for end users only, ROM or any part of ROM/mods not allowed to redistribute,modify or to use as base to prepare new ROM/ part of other ROM.
