I can't seem to get root on my Sm-T337A.
I want acheive root and learn to develop and experiment with custom ROMS. I'm very new to this.
I was able to install Odin and install a boot.tar file but the Tablet kept boot cycling into recovery mode. I tried what I thought was sidebooting files using adb, but apparently I don't understand how that works yet. I restored the tablet by forcing it into install mode (held down power, vol down, and home) then used Odin to install the boot(LP).tar file which restored the tablet. This ROM is indeed the AT& T Rom, but it is not the same one that came with the Tablet when I got it new (it has a different look).
Please help.
Here is the information on my tablet.
Android 5.1.1
Baseband Version - T337AUCU2BOH4
Kernal Version [email protected] #1 Thu Aug 13 17:01:34 KST 2015

I was able to root mine with KingRoot but after rebooting it said I had to take mine to the nearest At&t store. Yea...that won't be happening. Through Odin I flashed the LP boot tar. Fixed it. But I really want to gain root. There is no way around this? There has to be a way to unlock bootloader. Thanks in advance.:fingers-crossed:

If you could explain how to get around a locked bootloader you would make a lot of people very happy. Can't be done yet. That is the whole issue

Look up t337a temp root in xda. A guy says he figured it out but Noone has tried it. I use mine for work every day so I can't chance it. If you're brave enough to try. If it works put in a reply there and let me know. It says it works on our bootloader

hello,
i have a Samsung tab e sm-t561 , it is a NTTF study tab. i wanted to remove their OS and reload to stock rom. but when i try to update it via odin, it gives me error saying that the MDM MODE, CANT DOWNLOAD
REGARDS
I'm not having problems on my.
I own an SM-T561 and I were flashing many times without problems.
I needed to flash stock rom many times because there was no root and tried almost all methods I found, until we found a Russian site doing the root, and their method worked.
Can you verify the kernel and rom version?
unlock your bootloader

Unlocking your bootloader with adb/SDK would enable you to flash anything you want. Do this and notify me after unlocking your boot loader
---------- Post added at 05:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------
I got this tab from ohio state university when I was doing my masters.. And I just unlocked the bootloader using Android SDK (Google how to do this). After that, i've flashed my tab with TWRP recovery. Then, I have used Odin to flash custom recovery on my device. Works fine as hell. Just like a normal tab.

HEY unlocking bootloader using android sdk,
the mdm agent doesn't allow the connectivity to pc.
i.e in device manager no android device is shown. while other devices get connected easily and android device is shown in device manager.please do something
I just rooted my sm-t561 3g device
Hey I just rooted my Samsung sm-t561 device wanting to upgrade to higher version than Kitkat 4.4.4 but couldn't get any solution.
I was in the process of removing kingroot and installing supersu when my phone decided to reboot and now will not boot past the very first screen no matter how long I let it sit. I tried factory resetting it but that didn't change anything. I've searched high and low for firmware but have come up empty. Does anyone have stock firmware for the Alcatel Streak? Thanks.

Concur.
I had exactly the same problem. Alcatel Streak (40600) would not boot after I did KingRoot and superSu replacement.
There has been no activity on this or other Alcatel STREAK threads for some time, but for any members needing, I have a full stock ROM for the Cricket Alcatel STREAK (4060o), Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow. Any interested members please leave a comment and I will upload the ROM and post a download link.

I understand your dilemma. My stock ROM and firmware are installable via TWRP, which I have ported over from the Alcatel IDEAL (4060a). Flashing a firmware to this device without using a custom recovery is problematic to say the least. QFIL/QPST does not seem to work, and true to their typical protocol, TCL seems to have disabled fastboot mode on the 4060o. I will research this matter some more to see if I can help. There are reports of forcing the device into a hard brick by corrupting the /sbl1 bootloader partition. As such, Qualcomm's EDL (9008) mode is enabled which will allow for an emergency firmware installation per firehose protocol via QPST. But again, I'll try and research this more. Also, if you don't mind, could you share the firmware you have please? It sounds like you have an official package which I have not been able to locate. My ROM and firmware are both self compiled. Thank you.

stock cricket Rom mm 6.0.1
@Viva La Android
...now let me tell you how this started to give you more info....I rooted with kingroot installed twrp for the 4060a with flashify and directly installed magisk 18 with twrp...somewhere in there i deleted king root...everything worked great..made a full back up through twrp..I had titanium backup installed deleated all the bloat and started on magisk mods..installed xposed as well...flashed viper4...well I got greedy and started trying to dirty flash pixie4 roms to get a higher os like oreo...fail fail fail...I had read in the forum not to tick fix permissions in TWRP but i did it anyway...never ending bootloop after that...i side loaded a custom rom for the 4060a ....hard brick...i guess thats when i was EDL mode because of the wrong bootloader...i tried to flash the cricket rom with qset\qfil and it would not work...then i flashed the stock 4060a and it worked...wouldn't boot past the splash screen...kinda weird though because the splash screen was split in half and reversed with a gap in the middle....ill figure out a way to screen shot later....but i was able to hook back into the pc and I have adb but unauthorized because the OS got factory wiped so no usb debugging...I do have fastboot access now...which is strange but since my oem unlock is not ticked in the OS every boot img recovery img or system img i try to flash acts all good then fail in fastboot....my realization is that I wiped my modem somewhere in there and it replaced it with a downgrade which forced the EDL mode...well I flashed wrong with the 4060a firmware so Im stuck is all I can figure...I cant get adb shell access either haven't tried
shell with ubuntu/python maybe i can get shell access to force feed super user and tick oem unlock for the bootloader...other than that Im stumped...Maybe DD commands and a good dump file to see where I stand...and as far as my TWRP backup goes..I got careless and deleated it when I formated my PC to remove all the crap Ive picked up trying to fix this mess off the MTK and GSM sites...
My main objective right now is to get my adb key authorized there has to be a way

Yeah I agree totally. If there was a way to enable the OEM Unlocking option from a shell environment, you would likely have total control of the device via fastboot protocol. Like you, I concur that there has to be a way. You have me perplexed enough to dig in and help find an answer. I have a working device and a bricked device, so I am free to experiment around on my brick using QFIL/QPST. I am impressed that you have been able to access fastboot. This is more progress than most people make, so congrats there. Nice work.
By the way @KtownJeff, if you need any partition dumps from my device, for example, /sbl1, /aboot, /rpm, /tz, etc., just let me know. Just a thought, but if you could push my /persist partition image to your device (my OEM Unlocking is enabled), I think your OEM Unlocking would tick enabled. I recall a Moto device where OEM Unlocking was enabled in a similar manner. @KtownJeff, if possible, please share a download link of the official firmware package to which you referred. I will be glad to share my self compiled firmware package and stock ROM. Thank you friend.

I actually stumbled on the fastboot accidentally!!...After I flashed the Stock 4060A firmware with the split up splash image I checked my driver to see if I was in qloader 9008 mode still and I saw the holy grail "Android Bootloader"...The phone screen didnt have anything showing on it like any moto mfastboot mode or like a samsung when hooked up to odin...just the frozen "half splash" Alcatel Logo..I had minimal adb/fastboot installed...I switched to the Android platform tools latest version and had better results...I had a lot of failures when it come down to recovery partition and system partition...I had some successes tho...Fastboot erase works but I dont know if thats standard and the OS reinstalls what I erased because of the lock..prob so just like no superuser access in ADB...I tried to re flash TWRP for like three days and gave up...I forgot to mention I have no stock recovery access.......Yes please I need a full phone dump of whatever you got... all the better..I might try shorting my board to get back to EDL so I can try flash the cricket 6.0.1 again...but I don't want to lose my fastboot access either....the 6040O aboot partion does not have fastboot... The Stock crickit 4060O rom link was posted earlier...I'm in the process of uploading to MEGA as we speak so here in a few I will post all my stuff for this phone...And please share yours as well...

There was one here on XDA. It was a TWRP flashable Android 5.1.1 stock ROM I believe. The OP of the ROM is no longer on XDA and it appears that the download links are dead. I'll try to find you a copy of the ROM though.

Oh thank you very much. I was in need of the 4060o official firmware package. I'm in debt to you. Thanks for all the extras as well! Nice. I will upload my stock partition dump of my 4060o and get that posted ASAP. Have you tried using an insecure boot image for ADB superuser (ADBD) access? If you want I can set my stock boot image insecure with ADBD and upload that as well.
I'm found a copy of a stock 5.1.1 ROM for the 4060a that is TWRP flashable. I'm uploading it to Mega File now. I'll post the link when completed. I fixed the installer on this ROM and rewrote the Edify script.
4060a Stock ROM

@KV2_URSS, if you have TWRP installed, this may unbrick your device.
Update: I dissected that ROM and discovered some syntax errors in the Edify script. I've rewritten the installer and fixed some bugs with the updater-script. I also just tested the ROM on my own 4060a and confirmed that it does work. I'll post the updated link to replace the other link in a few minutes.

Did you download from the updated link? The ROM from the old link was bootlooping my 4060a also. I fixed the installer script and when I tried it again it worked.

Ok. My guess is your boot chain may be corrupt. I'll write you an installer to try and fix it. I'm fixing some things on the 4060o ROM, so I'll write you an installer for your 4060a when I get ready to upload the other ROM. In the installer, I'll place some of the bootloader partitions from the firmware package to be installed on your device.

Ok friend. I'll expedite and get that done now. To clarify, you want a full partition dump of my 4060o, correct?
The partition dump files and MM stock ROM for 4060o are uploading now. @KtownJeff, I don't have the best signal tonight in terms of fast upload/download data speed, but the ROM and files you need are uploading and links will be posted here ASAP. For informational purposes, my partition dump is taken from a stock Android 6.0.1 Alcatel STREAK, Build No. A45UC50, Build Date: June 24, 2016; Security Patch Level June 1, 2016, Kernel Version: 3.10.49, and Baseband Version: MSM8909.12110.15W46. My ROM has been built from this firmware version as well.
Update: Link will be posted within the hour.
All gone. Including TWRP. The only thing that remains is Stock Recovery. Phone Locked, FRP Locked. It happened after I restored OEM. No USB Debugging enabled, so cant re-flash rom with ADB. Same goes for OEM Unlock. ADB sees the phone, but cannot unlock or re-flash. eRecovery fails to download firmware. So, any ideas ? What can I do ? 200$ worth motherboard change or any other way ? Please help.

When I proceed to flash an earlier version(downgrade) of stock rom, it get stuck on recovery.img in Odin and on the device it says "sw rev check fail bootloader device 2 binary 1" Tried flashing other earlier versions of stock roms even the latest but still getting that message and never get past recovery.img. Fortunately, the device still works when I boot it normally. How can I fix this? Wanted to try other roms because of oem not appearing even after 168hrs.

i am facing the same issue i did some googling on this matter & found out that our binary number is updated to U2 from U1 so in simple words boot loader is updated to u2 & you cannot flash it back to U1 so far my learning is this.if you want to try some other rom you will need to flash U2 only something like this G965FXXU2
Post a screenshot in download mode and i'll post you a link of your right firmware also recovery error may cause of usb port try to change usb port
Can we downgrade to U2 to U1 pls let me know

Now that you said it, all the firmwares I've downloaded got U1 in it. So I assume you also updated to the August patch?
I update to August patch that changed the binary to u2 udpated the boot loader so when u try to flash the same it will not downgrage u need to find u2 only in firmware... if there is a workaround if anyone can help it will be good

Yeah apparently this is a somewhat common issue for newer samsung devices (i think it started from the s6)
You can't downgrade anymore, the only way i ever got an older version to work was by flashing the bootloader from a combination firmware. Other than that sol.
Did u manage to downgrade with combination rom can u share your steps
My S9+ wont flash back to stock firmware (assuming because of the error above) any ideas how to fix this ?
