Flash any TW custom ROM without tripping Knox - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

I did not see anything here that would be a clear guide to help people wanting to retain Knox so i am adding this. Original guide was made by _Sale_ the developer of NeatROM but i used his guide to successfully flash many different ROMs and retain (Knox 0x0). i really wanted to use Alliance ROM but it appears that the install instructions only work if the ROM is installed with Aroma (Alliance is not) but if you really want Alliance or similar ROM that does not have the Aroma installer i have a small trick. Download a ROM that utilizes Aroma and double click (do not extract) the zip file, now do the same for the ROM you would like to install without the Aroma installer. When both ROM zips are open the Aroma installer ROM and click system and delete all files inside, now drag all the system files from the Recovery flashable ROM into the Aroma system folder. Now so the same for the data folder. I personally left everything inside the aroma folder within the Aroma zip but you can add and delete what you want. Now put the Aroma zip on your SD and follow the directions below. This worked flawless for me and i now have NH5 across the board rooted and Knox 0x0 running Alliance ROM. Hope this helps for those who have not been able to find a clear guide.

I flashed alliance rom with mobile odin over my stock rom. But can always use settings in mobile odin to delete data and cache along with dalvik cache. While your method works, it's a bit over complicated for noobs while doing it with Mobile Odin Pro is just very simple.

Are you talking about the alliance rom i used to flash with odion pro?
Im sure i still have it. But yeah mobile odin does not trip knox. While all the explanations of Knox makes sense, i dont think people truly know how it works.
someone convince me to reflash and go with a custom recovery. So now knox is tripped.

Custom recovery is the way to go imo. Especially once android l rolls out. Custom recovery will be the ONLY way to achieve root unless/if someone figures something else out to run the su script at boot with proper contexts.

This is kinda true, but with mobile odin pro i can just flash L and have it root. Now for custom roms like CyanogenMod, i guess i would need a custom recovery. Things like custom stock such as alliance custom recovery should not be needed.
And again, im only going by reading and experience. I still dont have a clear understanding of knox. What is being said by Samsung and members of xda with 0x1, i can still install the knox container.
Screen shot here. I made a post asking about this but cant get anyone to explain this.

So you were able to get neatrom on a T-Mobile s5 without tripping Knox?

Can I root my s5 without tripping Knox? I don't want custom rom or anything, just rooted and everything else stay the same?

Thank you it helped a lot. Now I'm trying to switch SELinux to passivie.. any ideas?

Now how can I get selinux to switch to permissive with out tripping Knox?

I'm on 4.4.2 neatROM this way. I don't like the stock settings menus which are messy. I would prefer cyanogenmod and/or something minimal. This isn't running great.
Anyone know a newer prerooted rom that can work with this method?

[TELUS ONLY] [GUIDE] Complete Guide to Flashing Custom ROMs On Your Telus Fascinate

ATTENTION, THIS IS FOR TELUS FASCINATE USERS ONLY! (ANDROID 2.2 FROYO)
Okay, so the Telus Fascinate (T959D) is basically the same phone as the T-mobile Vibrant. The only thing stopping us from using Vibrant ROMs was not having the right kernel to flash on top. That is no longer the case, as supercurio has recently injected the Telus Fascinate stock 2.2 JL3 kernel with Voodoo and Clockwork Recovery for us.
So, here is a complete guide to installing Vibrant ROMs on the Telus Fascinate. I have been using Team Whiskey's Nero 5 with Voodoo enabled, 100% working. All the required files are attached.
Note: Please don't send me any messages saying "My phone broke! It's your fault!" This guide worked flawlessly for me, and you all know the risk involved in flashing your phones. There is a reason doing so voids your warranty. That being said, there should not be any issues if you simply follow the instructions correctly.
1. Use Titanium Backup to back up all apps and settings/data
2. Flash stock Telus Fascinate 2.2 ROM using Odin
****ONLY DO THIS IF YOU ARE COMING FROM A CUSTOM ROM. IF YOUR PHONE IS STILL STOCK, YOU MAY SKIP THIS STEP****
A. Download Odin (attached) and the Telus JL3 stock files
B. Open Odin, and put the files in the appropriate boxes
s1_odin_20100512.pit in "PIT"
T959TLJL3-REV03-ALL-low-CL763100.tar.md5 in "PDA"
T959TLJL3_FROYO_Phone-CL763100.tar in "PHONE"
SGH-T959D-CSC-TLSJL3.tar.md5 in "CSC"​
C. Boot into download mode by turning phone off, then holding "Volume Down" while connecting the phone to the computer
D. The first "ID:COM" box should turn yellow and show a numerical COM port
E. Click "Start" and wait for it to finish and reboot, and unplug the phone after the yellow box turns green and says "PASS"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Use SuperOneClick to root the phone
1. Download SuperOneClick v1.5.5 (attached)
2. On phone, go to Options > Applocations > Development and enable "USB Debugging"
3. Connect phone to computer, open SuperOneClick, and click "Root"
4. You should see a confirmation when it's done

Click to collapse
4. Flash supercurio's Stock+Voodoo kernel using Odin
A. Download the Stock+Voodoo kernel .tar for Odin
B. Open Odin, and put the kernel file in the appropriate box
stock+Voodoo-Froyo-T959D-TLJL3.tar in "PDA"​
C. Boot into download mode by turning phone off, then holding "Volume Down" while connecting the phone to the computer
D. The first "ID:COM" box should turn yellow and show a numerical COM port
E. Click "Start" and wait for it to finish and reboot, and unplug the phone after the yellow box turns green and says "PASS"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. Install your desired custom ROM using Clockwork Recovery
****MAKE SURE THAT THE ROM YOU WANT TO INSTALL DOES NOT HAVE A BOOTLOADER INCLUDED. IF IT DOES IT WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE. BROWSE THE .ZIP, AND CHECK THE "UPDATES" FOLDER, AND LOOK FOR "SBL.BIN" OR "BOOT.BIN". IF THEY EXIST, DELETE THEM AND REMOVE THE REFERENCE TO THEM (SINGLE LINE FOR EACH) IN THE "UPDATE SCRIPT" FILE, WHICH IS FOUND IN /META-INF/com/google/android/****
A. Place xxxxxxxx.zip (whichever ROM you are flashing) on internal sdcard
B. Disable any lagfixes (Follow step 6 to disable voodoo if it automatically enables with supercurio's kernel - this doesn't happen for everyone I don't think)
C. Reboot into clockwork recovery by holding "Volume Up" + "Volume Down" while turing on the phone
D. Select "install zip from sdcard"
E. Select "choose zip from sdcard"
F. Select "xxxxxxxx.zip"
G. Select "Yes - xxxxxxxx.zip"
H. Wait for installation to finish
I. Reboot
J. After full boot, wait roughly 10 minutes and reboot, this will smooth things out and eliminate any small bugs.

6. Disable Voodoo
****ONLY DO THIS IF THE ROM YOU JUST FLASHED HAS VOODOO INSTALLED & ENABLED BY DEFAULT. OTHERWISE, YOU MAY SKIP THIS STEP****
A. Reboot into clock work recovery by holding "Volume Up" + "Volume Down" while turing on the phone
B. select "voodoo lagfix"
C. Select "disable lagfix"
D. Select "go back"
E. Select "reboot system now"

Well, i have supercurio's kernel flashed, with voodoo enabled.
I'm not sure which step to start at to be honest.
And i flashed the custom kernel through SGS Kernel Flasher, so do i have to flash back to stock and do this process all over again?

If you are currently running a stock ROM with supercurio's kernel, then you would jump to the part that comes after installing the stock ROM and supercurio's kernel (i.e. flashing the custom ROM). Just disable Voodoo first.
If you are currently running a custom ROM, then yes, it is recommended to go back to stock before flashing a new custom ROM. Some ROM developers have made it so that you can flash their newer versions over older versions of the same ROM, but make sure that's the case before you do so. And it's always recommended to disable Voodoo before flashing anything.

Great Post Samperlmutar;
Just one suggestion if I may, you didn't mention to boot into clockwork AFTER you flash the final final voodoo kernel so you can enable voodoo lagfix...if you want it.
I have voodoo enable and this phone is crazy fast.

You have to flash it the first time to get to clockwork recovery, then when you flash the vibrant rom the supercurio kernel will get overwrited, therefore it needs to be flashed again.

Wouldn't flashing other phone's roms brick our phone?
Unless the custom rom is compatible with supercurio's kernel. Not sure.

No. That's why I specified to use ROMs for the Vibrant, it's virtually the same phone. They work almost perfectly even if you don't flash a Telus kernel/modem. The only consistent issues with unmodified Vibrant ROMs on the Telus Fascinate are (1) Volume buttons swapped, (2) No wireless service, and (3) USB connection causes reboot. Each of these issues are fixed by flashing a compatible kernel/modem.
Can we use themes created for Nero v5?

I haven't used any themes, but they should definitely work without any problems. Themes don't affect the kernel or the modem, and those two elements are the only things that we changed from the original Vibrant ROMs.

Alright, thanks for your quick reply.
And thanks for this guide. Working great. xD
First time noob here! I have several questions regarding this install
1) I'm not so familiar with Odin. Can I use sgs kernel flasher instead?
2) If i mess up during the process, is there any method to go back to the stock?
3) Will any T-mobile vibrant rom work on telus fascinate?
4)What do they mean by remove lagfix in step 5?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

1) The steps where I say to use Odin use files made for Odin, so no...they can't be used for anything else. Download Odin from the attachments and check it out. It's really easy to use and should make perfect sense if you follow the instructions closely.
2) That's what step 2 does. If you mess up at any time, you can just perform step 2 and everything will be back to stock.
3) From my experience, yes.
4) If you started from step 1, then you don't have a lag-fix installed. This is just an extra warning for those who jumped straight to installing the ROM, that might have been running stock w/ a custom kernel already (and thus may have installed a lag-fix).
Sorry for the repost XD

Help! I was going through the steps everything running smoothly. I installed Nero 5 from the zip, checked reboot and now I have nothing. No download mode, no recovery, nothing!
For odin, do we have to download any .pit file?
I researched about odin articles and it seems that I need the pit file. Can anyone
help me with this? Thanks!
Ok, now that people have started bricking because they aren't making sure that what they're flashing is compatible with their phones, it's time to take a few steps back and add a little caution. For all their similarities, the Vibrant and our (Telus) Fascinates are NOT the same phone.
Before you flash ANYTHING you need to first extract and examine the update script to make sure it's not flashing a bootloader or some such thing that WILL brick your phone.
What you need to do is look at the blocks (i.e. stuff under /dev/block/) it's flashing and anything outside of modem.bin and zImage (kernel) should be a red flag telling you to stay away from this ROM. In fact, if you have any Kung-Fu skills you can just replace the model and kernel files with the Telus or I9000 ones you want to use and re-sign the zip file to keep from having to flash and re-flash.
Thanks so much, I have been waiting on this since i unlocked my phone. Let the installing begin
EDIT: My phone seems to be stuck on download mode: ODIN does not want to recognize it so I cannot flash(right word?) the Stock+Voodoo-Froyo.tar file.
EDIT: FIXED: Boot into recovery mode: VOL up + VOL down. Then click reboot with power button, then immediately hold VOL down

Unroot N7100
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to Root N7105
Big Thanx to Chainfire and Chenglu for great work.
You can get root access by A.Rooting your existing and desired ROM or B.Flashing prerooted ROM.
Select your choice from one of this
1. Root with Stock Recovery - It will give full root access but have stock recovery. You can set your flash counter '0' and so ready to claim warranty.If you want device full stock + root this is choice for you.
2. Root + Advanced CWM - This will give Root access as well advanced CWM - Here you can reset counter, but once reboot to recovery, it will raise flash counter, Find option to reset counter on every boot (only play store version).
3.Root with ExynosAbuse apk - simply install apk to gain root access.
So which one I should select? OR Which one is better?
Both Methods are given by elite developer and both are good, but both having its cons and pros. e.g.
Method 1:
Disadvantage : Here you will get full root access, but here recovery will remain stock, so you won't have option to flash zip files (still you can flash zip with Mobile Odin), but you won't have any option for Nandroid backup/Restore.
Advantage : You have to reset flash counter once only, then whenever you need to reset to unroot/ready to claim warranty, just you need to go to superSU - setting - unroot.
So If you are Flash counter conscious and really don't have need for nandroid backup, This one is for You.
Method 2:
Disadvantage : Note2 having auto check sum boot loader and it will check for custom things on every boot. So rooting with this method your counter will remain 1, even if you have reset it with triangle away. Though one possibility is there to reset counter, you have to use market version of Triangle Away with option 'Reset counter on every boot'. But keep in mind this option only available if your kernel support this, stock kernel won't support it. Again before claiming warranty you need to flash stock recovery.
Advantage : You will have feature rich recovery like flashing zip from recovery and Nandroid backup/Restore.
So If you are not much worrying about flash counter or warranty and you really need Nandroid backup, This one is for you.
Method 3:
Advantage :Simply install apk to root device, No flashing/Resetting counter needed.
Disadvantage : Read below mentioned thread for security issue.

7.Open SuperSU from app drawer and update binary (see image)
How to Unroot and make status Normal
Open Exynos Abuse app, uncheck disable explot and select Unroot device (see image)
Restart device and wait for 10 min. and then you can check status.
Reseting Counter
Above method will raise flash counter and you will need to reset counter to reclaim warranty, Read next post for it (post#3)
First thing I do recommend after rooting device
EFS Backup
Why so?
EFS folder contains some important and some basic info related to our device identity like Wi-Fi address, Bluetooth MAC address and the very main IMEI address (nv_data.bin).
Now if this EFS partition accidently corrupted then your phone’s IMEI no. will erased and you can not make voice call further. This kind of damage is often not accepted by the service center of your respected handset’s company.
Here your backup can only be savior for you.
How to Unroot :
- This is commonly needed before sending it to service station and reclaim warranty.
1.As discussed in post #3 if you have any custom recovery/Kernel first you need to replace it with stock one. If you have custom ROM, then you will have to flash stock ROM.(you can use mobie odin to keep root intact to reset counter)
2.You need to use Triangle away if your binnary count is non zero (read post #3)
3.Once your flash counter is 'No' then you can simply unroot from superSU setting
if your device status is -Modified, you can do this trick to reset to normal
setting - appl manager - All - clear data for SysScope as well Enterprise SysScope
This should change system setting to Normal
If still you have modified status, you can wipe cache and data from recovery.
If still it doesn't change status, try removing Ext SD card
4. This is optional but full proof method to unroot and won't leave any footprint of previous root.(provided you flash counter is 'No')
-Flash Stock ROM with PC Odin
-Wipe cache and data.
All credits goes to
Chainfire and Chenglu
Apart from described above, you can get root access without raising counter by flashing pre rooted ROM, for further detail read this
Reset Flash Counter
There is great tool from elite developer Chainfire known as Triangle Away
From CF -
When you run TriangleAway, if your device and firmware are supported, it will show you the detected state of the binary (custom or official) and flash counter value, and the option to Reset flash counter. Please confirm that the information shown is correct before resetting the values.
On a number of devices, TriangleAway can work, but your firmware may not be supported directly. In that case, the app will tell you it needs to reboot into a special boot mode, which will be happen if you select Reset flash counter. The device will reboot into a special mode which will allow you to review the current status and reset the binary and flash counter values (or abort and do nothing.)
using Triangle Away may unmount your SD card. Reboot or manually remount it from Android settings.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Source and full thread by Chainfire
Get Triangle Away to support CF
Steps to reset counter
-Download Triangle away and install
-Open Triangle away from appl drawer, grant SU permission
-Depends on your recovery/kernel, it may ask to download add on about 7.4MB file, dwnload it.
-After downloading select reset counter from application menu
-This will reboot device in special recovery, and you will see some colored text menu with big yellow, with round circle exclamation mark.
-Read available option, confirm your flash counter showing on this page and select appropriate menu(vol up) to reset counter.
-Your device will reboot and you will have counter '0'
In case if you are using CWM it may raise again on reboot, read below.
NoteII having new bootloader with auto checksum of recovery, so If you are using custom recovery flash counter may raise again on rebooting to recovery
So if you are using stock recovery, reseting count to '0' with triangle away is enough. In case you are using custom recovery, even after reseting counter again it will raise to 1 if you reboot device to recovery. For this you have to use option 'Reset at every boot' in triangle away. This option is available on Play version, and only you can see if you have custpm recovery and your kernel support it. (Redpill kernel reprted to support this feature of TA)
Common question about reseting counter
I have reset counter but system status still 'custom'
You should have stock recovery (Method A in post#2)
If you already have stock recovery(CF Auto root) then reset counter first
then wipe cache + wipe data(factory reset) + re wipe cache
You should now have system status 'official'
I have rest counter but after reboot again it goes to 1
This happen if you have rooted with chenglu's recovery(method 2 in post#2)
This is neither error of recovery nor triangle away. This happens due to new bootloader which have auto checksum for recovery, when you reboot to custom recovery count will raise.
To prevent this you need to have play version of Triangle away, and you should check (enable) 'Auto reset at boot'. Again this feature depends on kernel/recovery is supported or not, Redpill kernel reported to support this.
A.Tools
1.Odin 3.07 - Requires to flash ROM/Kernel/Modem.Using this to flash custom stuff will raise flash counter.
2.Samsung USB Driver 1.5.6 - Requires to connect your device to PC

Flash firmware using Mobile odin to keep root intact & counter untouched.
Flash firmware using Mobile odin to keep root intact & counter untouched.
If you have device already rooted, you can use Mobile Odin to flash stock firmware to keep Root intact, as well flash counter will also remain untouched.
Here is example to flash leaked firmware LJ2 4.1.2 (Images shown is from N7100 and demo purpose only, you will have to select 7105 ROM)
1.Download & extract ROM file and Copy to SD card.
2.Install Mobile Odin Pro
When you first time open Mobile Odin, it will ask to download required flasher file.
3.Open Mobile odin - select open file
4.Point to ROM file you have copied
5.It will fill up all available field automatically
6.select Ever root option and check mark 'Inject SuperSU' And Then Flash.
Device will reboot in special recovery and firmware will be flashed
After finishing flashing device will be reboot normally and you will have SuperSU installed and flash counter will remain untouched too.
Old ROMs
i flashed N7105 4.1.2 deodex by mobile odin, after that, i triangle away, full wipe, and my counter still shows 1 and status as custom, i need reset on every boot, is it normal?
Which recovery you are using?
CWM long time ago, but flashed back to stock before i flash the 4.1.2
You just confirm you have stock recovery, If it is CWM you need to reset at every boot.

Hi,
on my phone it says that i have the N7105XXALIK.. can I flash the N7105XXALIJ one without anything happening ?
Thank you
You can flash it but your LIK is likely newer then LIJ
am on LK7, decide to roll back to 4.1.1 LIJ, realised that the phone cannot boot pass the Samsung logo, blue LED didn't light up during the boot process. waited for almost 15mins. reflash back LK7, boot up fine. anybody knows what could be the problem?
wiped cache. don't really want to wipe phone.
This(wipe) is only way when you have bootloop

Hi, tried to flash the Swedish ROM and it has failed! First time it has ever happened to me. I have tried again but it fails at the same point. I used ODIN desktop. Any ideas?
I have the Note2Core kernel on, is it that?

My “Root for Verizon Galaxy S4 VRUAME7 Build Only” experience

Follow original thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380325
First I’d like to thank everyone for all their work so far with the Verizon S4 rooting and modding. I wouldn’t be writing this if I didn’t have so much info online already. I’m standing on the shoulders of giants. Hehehe.
Here is what I ended up doing:
1) To start, download all these (ODIN, Recovery.pit File, VZWS4 root .zip, SafeStrap.apk, ME7 modules):
http://ge.tt/3ywGajs?c
2) And Stock S4 recovery .tar.MD5 here (if you need to reflash back to stock, or to unbrick)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8owp4iT4wQnUFdVaGp4czFmWUE&usp=sharing
3) Install Android Terminal Emulator on your phone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
4) Format your SD card to exFAT using your computer.
5) Extract the RootForVZWS4.zip to your SDcard (DO NOT put it in any other folders, it must be extracted on the SD top level). Then put the SDcard back into the phone.
6) Enable Developer Mode on your phone.
7) Check USB debugging in Developer Options.
8) Allow Unknown Sources under Security.
9) Open terminal emulator and type exactly what is shown:
cd /mnt/extSdCard <-Note: there is a space after cd
./pwn
./script.sh
If you’re like me, even though you may see “Permission Denied” in a few lines, your phone is rooted. This is OK. You're rooted when you see the " $ " turn into a " # "
10) Install SafeStrap.apk from your SDcard to get the bootloader.
11) Run SafeStrap from your Apps Drawer, then choose Install Recovery (this will allow you to boot up and enter SafeStrap where you can back up your stock ROM, and install custom ROMs from your SDcard).
12) Restart and you should see a new Boot Screen – hit menu to enter Recovery
13) Backup your phone! Save to SD card!
14) Add custom ROMs to your SDcard and flash them with SafeStrap
15) Flash ME7 modules.zip
16) Wipe cache and dalvik
17) Fix permissions
18) Reboot and enjoy
*****If you brick your phone, or want to go back to stock*****
1) Enter/boot to ODIN mode (phone NOT connected to computer).
2) Plug your phone into your computer.
3) Open ODINv3.07.
4) Make sure ODIN finds your phone (Top left box will be blue with your phone ID).
5) Click the big PIT button, and find the “SCH-I545.pit” file you downloaded earlier to your computer.
6) Click the big PDA button, and find the .tar.md5 file you downloaded earlier to your computer.
7) When ODIN has finished checking the files, hit START. Wait a long time, then when your phone reboots, and the program says PASS in green, you’re back to stock.
Please let me know if any links don’t work. Hopefully you all can follow this long post.
What is the .pit file for? I have never used this when using Odin to restore to stock.

To flash back to stock....
Click the big "PIT" button, and browse for the "SCH-I545.pit" file
Click the big "PDA" button, and browse for the "COMBINATION.....tar.md5" file
ODIN will think for a minute.... then when the message reads <OSM> Leave CS... hit start
I should probably add that this ODIN flash will remove ROOT and SafeStrap too. The phone will be back to complete 100% Samsung/Verizon stock.
In SafeStrap, I've also wiped the Stock Rom slot, and installed Scotts Clean Rom there.... and it worked (Clean Rom v.1.6.0, Clean Rom Patch v.1.6.5, ME7-modules, Fix Permissions, wipe cache/dalvik)

1. Get TWRP recovery for your device. Flash it using Odin. If you can't flash it using Odin, use ADB and flash TWRP.
2. Here on, if you can successfully flash the stock ROM to your device using TWRP, you will have the device with stock Android running.
3. If you can't flash, enter TWRP recovery and mount all the drives and wipe them. Now flash stock ROM. You will have your device back.:good:
hi guys i found an artical
https://ge0n0sis.github.io/posts/20...-mode-using-an-undocumented-feature-of-aboot/
if anyone can use this documentation to bypass mdm mode it will be great
Very good. Very interesting.
But is for developers ...
Code is missing ....
as long as you can get into download mode it is pretty simple Ive done quite a few. Download stock firmware and in odin click on the options tab select nand erase all checkbox and flash the stock files in and it removed the mdm while flashing.
Worked for me
Thanks buddy

For me this worked pretty much, but I only needed step 1. Once inside TWRP recovery, I just needed to wipe to factory reset and reboot. These were the steps for my Eat 24 tablet SM-T280:
1. Install the drivers if necessary
2. Go to Download mode by using Volume Down + Home + Power
3. Download and Extract TWRP compatible with SM-T280 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-samsung-galaxy-tab-a6-sm-t280-t3475381. TWRP is a custom recovery image for Android.
4. Download and Install Odin (this works only on Samsung devices)
5. Use Odin by running as administrator, uncheck Auto Reboot, select AP and point to the extracted TWRP .tar file, then click on start.
6. Once successful, hold home + volume down + power to shut off tablet.
7. Go to TWRP recovery by holding home + volume up + power.
8. Select "Wipe", and "swipe to factory reset"
9. Reboot
This worked for my SM-T280

I'm writing this reply in hopes that it will help anyone else in a similar situation.
Before finding this thread i had zero, ZERO experience rooting/flashing twrp'ing, whatever you call it.
I still don't understand fully what i did by following the instructions in this thread.
I just know it worked.
By using the instructions here and from another thread on this website, i was able to successfully flash twrp [whatever you call it] my Samsung A6 that was in mdm mode.
Prior to following the instructions in this thread, i could only go online with my tablet. It wouldn't let me open any settings, change anything, it wouldn't let me do a factory reset.
Now, i am able to use the tablet as if i had just purchased it.
After following the instructions, and after rebooting, i saw the screens you normally see when you turn on your tablet for the first time. All of the setup, agree to terms, Samsung account setup, available WiFi connections; everything; it was all there just like it's supposed to be.
I was so excited to see the setup screens.
After agreeing and going through setup I was able to use my tablet 100% like normal.
Thank you and thank you to the other users who posted directions on how to do this.
I will soon post my own new thread that will have each step laid out so that anyone in the same situation can easily follow it from beginning to end.
i have 5 device T280 bloked by MDM how can you help me please?
i have 10 device T561 bloked by MDM how can you help me please?
Hi, I was able to unlock a Samsung Galaxy Tab A that was locked in MDM mode by postmates.
MDM blocked any recovery wiping or download mode flashing, so I couldn't flash TWRP.
I was able to set a screen lock (pattern) and turn on "wipe after 15 attempts." After 15 attempts it rebooted and was stuck on the logo screen for hours so I figured it didn't do anything. I was able to reboot into download mode and successfully flash TWRP at this point (I forgot to select NAND erase). I also was able to flash the stock rom, though unable to wipe in recovery first. I wasn't able to get into TWRP.
It rebooted and seemed like before, with the postmates kiosk mode and MDM lock in recovery wipe and download mode flashing. I went back into download mode and tried to flash TWRP again with nand selected. It didn't work, neither did flashing a ROM.
Anyways, it rebooted into the setup screen as if it was wiped.

boost mobile samsung galaxy j3 emerge (SM-J327P) with latest OTA installed
latest stock rom, useful to recover from bricks
latest smart switch for pc from samsung official site, this package includes drivers
latest Odin
latest magisk.zip on sdcard
twrp_3.1.0-1_j327p_14317.tar
reverting to stock
1. install stock via odin (bl,ap,cp,csc options: autoreboot, nand erase, re-partition, f. reset time), reboot allow stock recovery to finish install
rooting with magisk
1. enable oem unlocking in developer mode
2. boot to download mode
3. install twrp via odin (ap options: auto reboot, f. reset time), reboot to recovery
4. using twrp recovery, format data
5. install magisk from sdcard
6. wipe caches, reboot to system
notes
1. if odin fails to transfer rom most likely you didnt select all required files in odin: BL, AP, CP and CSC OR wrong version of stock rom is being used, must match version currently on device, if in doubt try them all until one allows odin to finish install.
2. vol+ home power -boots to recovery
3. vol- home power -boots to download mode
4. if wifi or mobile data doesn't work in android, you didn't select all required files in odin: BL, AP, CP and CSC need to be selected appropriately.
Does this work with the J327P AQJ3?
Sorry to drag a already re dug post but, I find myself with a j327ti
Just started looking but this seems the closest to my model number.
I know Odin well use it on s2, s3, s4, but haven't done much in this area for years
I'm sure my forum etiquette sux, so I apologize in advance

1. if odin fails to transfer rom most likely you didnt select all required files in odin: BL, AP, CP and CSC OR wrong version of stock rom is being used, must match version currently on device, if in doubt try them all until one allows odin to finish install.
2. vol+ home power -boots to recovery
3. vol- home power -boots to download mode
4. if wifi or mobile data doesn't work in android, you didn't select all required files in odin: BL, AP, CP and CSC need to be selected appropriately.

Yes it does. I have the QL3 but upgraded to the ARC1 software, but works perfectly either way. Just don't downgrade from ARC1 to QL3, the otherwise you will break the WiFi and 4G data connections modem.
