What exactly is that, where is it from?
Recovery shouldn't have anything to do with installed Android version.

If I were to guess, it's a different CWM recovery using JB Kernel?. It probably came from 4pda.ru which is a russian site. HAs a lot of android tablet stuff.
Just a guess. Might research it a little and see what I come up with.
It's not exactly the easiest site to navigate through.

I don't exactly see the need of a new recovery, since it works independent of the Android version. An "unknown" recovery would be possibly unsafe as well.

This is not "unknown" recovery. This 6.0.1.1 with kernel from bootloader JB (boot.img)
And this recovery normal mount all partition, make backup-restore and other function.
For ICS bootloader need original recovery 6.0.1.1
For JB bootloader my recovery, rebuilding from original JB bootloader and CMW recovery

You should give some info when posting, otherwise it is "unknown".
The boot.img contains the kernel not the bootloader. The kernel source is yet to be released by Acer and we don't know if Acer has blocked the dangerous emmc wipe command (which will randomly brick tablets, the more you wipe, the riskier you are) like I did on my kernel or not.

But what it does not, it does not flashes. Freezes and hangs. Have my tab after 30 minutes. removed and restarted, now it hangs in APX mode. Do you have a solution for this?
Hi There
after i recovered my Tab to work, i´ve done a flash with this Recovery and it freezes.
After this i only was able to turn off the Decvice.
Now it seem´s that i can´t turn on, Black Screen, no LED, only thing the Computer tells an USB Device want´s to install.
Try to install APX drivers an failed.
some ideas?

"This recovery" meaning mine or Gigabyte0's?
If you're in APX mode, you're out of luck and the service center will probably need to replace your mainboard.

Yes, it meant the version of Gigabyte0. Does not sound good.
Spread the word please:
ONLY USE PAWITP'S RECOVERY UNLESS YOU WANT A BRICKED TABLET
If pawitp's recovery is not working for you, then wait. The Recovery released by Gigabyte0 and found on 4PDA is built with Acer's kernel and Acer still has not fixed the brick bug!
Again, do NOT use Gigabyte0's recovery!

And I will concurr. So far, Pawitp's has caused 0 issues.
Why somebody would want to install an unheard of recovery, with absolutely 0 information about it, is just asking for trouble.
I'll toss in a note to the FSM, and have him deal with Gigabyte0 on what to do with this link.

Maybe you can also let this know on 4PDA.ru, as I am not Russian (and you are) you can probably explain it better:
In the Acer 3.0 Android kernel the command MMC_CAP_ERASE, which has caused all the old bricks, is still present. At least it is in the A110 3.0 kernelsource and I have no reason to believe they would remove it in the A700 3.0 kernelsource but not in the A110 one.
When this command exists in the kernel, and the Recovery also allows it (Recovery can also disable it, but the current A700 recovery doesn't do that), you are almost guarantueed a brick.
If you could translate that to 'the Russians' I guess we can save a few more people from bricking.

Recently rooted my Tmobile Tab 2 with no issues that I could see, got my superuser going and verified the root with Root Checker all was good. Then went to boot into recovery and saw that I had not TWRP so I grabbed a recovery installed via Odin and then restarted tablet and when it did I had it boot into recovery gave me the message "recovery booting" then would just turn off anytime I would try the Download mode or Booting it would just flash the recovery booting, what can I do to fix this an start from scratch. ADB ? if so does anyone have some resources to link me to try

Yeah there is a bit of a trick to get recovery going the first time, and it's not mentioned much. After you flash the recovery if your tab starts to reboot it will rewrite the original recovery. You have to catch it and do the power + volume down to get it to go straight to recovery. It's all about the timing. It took me flashing it about five times before I caught it just right. Just keep flashing it in Odin until you get it, you're doing it right your tab is just fighting it. After you get it the first time you'll have no more issues.
or uncheck "Auto-Reboot" inside Odin and use the Button-Combi to boot directly from Download-Mode into recovery after flashing
First time my Counter = 5 until i got it work

Yes, that's right! Or do you like to have a bricked device?
Never flash things from a different device to yours!
If you have a SGH-T779 - only use SGH-T779 -Files (e.g. Roms, Recoverys)

So with the link you provided would I need to do the status 7 fix which is deleting the asserts line or is that necessary with this CM 10.1
don't remove assert lines - this will keep your device alive! there is no Custom rom out for your device! only a stockbased one.
Hello folks. Today I did a cache, system, data wipe in TWRP on my G920F. After that I tried to restore a nandroid backup, but it failed and when I tried to restart it said there was no OS installed. So the phone wouldn't boot. I figured I did something wrong so I downloaded a 5.1.1 stock rom (UK) and flashed it with odin. But after the flash the phone would just bootloop. How can I revive the phone? Tried flashing the firmware again using another version of odin and also, I did a factory reset from the stock recovery, but no dice. Any ideas? Thanks in advance
Hey there,
check this thread here, should help (use TWRP to flash a ROM instead of Odin, links in thread).
Good luck!
Managed to make it work flashing another official rom, then factory reset. Lost all my files though...
Can be closed. Thanks!

Connect the phone to your PC and copy the ROM file to its root folder (just open "phone" and drop it there).
Using TWRP's "install" menu, you can browse your files and point it to this one; usually you're already in the right directory.

None of these three will help, i'm afraid.
The bootloop issue is a result of system write protection with 5.1.1 version, the phone tries to override a flashed recovery-
if it succeeds in automatically rebooting after you flashed, you're stuck on bootloop.
You have to flash a new kernel and root user via Odin, then flash TWRP and use it to install a new ROM.
A short description in this thread here, have a look.
As long as you can get into download mode, don't worry, nothings bricked :good:

Okay, i have done almost all of what you said.
But what im thinking about is the thread your refering to is to a S6 Edge and not for SM-G920F model.
But so far so good.
What kernel to you want me to flash? How can i root via Odin when i don't have USB-debugging on - But i can according to the thread, install SuperSU via TWRP.
I didn't know what kernel i had on, but i managed to install TWRP, install SuperSU via TWRP, pushing my stock rom to TWRP. But when installing the stock rom, it says "no md5 file found" or something like that. What am i doing wrong?

Should work on both Edge and normal.
I have the G920F and did it this way, i also had problems, by the way:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62550973&postcount=29
I recommend chosing an XtreStoLite ROM, the odexed version is an "improved stock" one, comes with a modified UniKernel and runs much smoother than stock.
Anyway, in TWRP, there is an option to skip md5 checking for backup files and for skipping the zipfile-check; not sure if you can also disable md5sum-checks.
Maybe you should try downloading the ROM from here or sammobile.de, verify the md5-sum yourself to make sure it is fine, and flash that one.
If TWRP doesn't think the ROM file is ok, it probably isn't ...
here's the odexed version of XtreStoLite:

Alright, you have root access and TWRP is running.
All you have to do is install the ROM file (unextracted, as a .zip) from your phone`s root folder; if your model is a G920F, the bootloader should be 5.1.1 and work, no need to change.
When exactly does Odin give you the error message, right after you click start or after a few secs of flashing?
I suspect the issue to be related to first reboot after flashing the recovery,.
When finished flashing TWRP, did you successfully boot into recovery menu be pressing vol up+home+power?
If you saw the bootloop screen then, you`ll have to do it again, i'm afraid:
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. (...) Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.

I know, it`s annoying; but give it another try:
use Odin 3.1.0.7 (run with admin rights), do a full wipe and install TWRP 2.8.7.
When doing so and Odin gives you the "finished/successfully flashed" message, immediately press & hold the key combo to get into recovery; don`t wait for the scrteen to change or unplug the phone, you need to be damn quick here.
If you have done it right, you are in TWRPs recovery menu.
From there, install the XtreStoLite ROM after doing a factory reset; reboot and you should be fine.

What i did was install stock android via Odin.
Flashed TWRP
Flashed Alex V kernel first, then SUPER SU.
Flashed XtreStoLite and it still gives me bootloop.
What i can't manage to do is after flashing TWRP, then i am not fast enough to press Shutdown button, home button, and volume up button before the Samsung logo appears. I think that is the problem.

Solved the same problem at reddit, take a look: reddit thread
Unfortunately, you must flash TWRP again to try once more, as soon as the samsung logo apperars, your custom recovery is overridden and thats it.
So now, take a deep breath, lean back and try again.
As soon as you have clicked to start the flashing procedure, press the 3 butons firmly, simultaneously and quick as lightning-
hold them down till it boots into TWRP.
Come on, even i have managed it after a few tries

So, for some reason you can't enter recovery mode.
This could be
a) TWRP is not installed correctly (did you use the .img ot the .tar-file? Odin needs the .tar-format: link )
or
b) the kernel you flashed doesn't work with this-
here is the one i have used to root my S6.
I would try to reflash above Unikernel first, if you used the .img-file of TWRP rather than the .tar to flash TWRP,
do it again with the .tar file instead.
If this fails, the last thing would be to flash a unmodified stock ROM to restore the original setup including the bootloader...
i will look into this now a little bit deeper, there has to be a workaround.
Best of luck for now, we stay in touch
EDIT: the developer of XtreStoLite recommends another way with Chainfire's root:
Flash CF-Root for your model with Odin - Make sure you have an custom recovery installed (I advise you to use TWRP) (2.8.7.1 or newer REQUIRED for v.2.1 > of this ROM!!)

If the bootloader is your problem, you can update to the newest versions of bootloader and modem for your model following these instructions:

Keep me informed

I can enter the recovery mode (TWRP) but not before the Samsung logo appears when i install TWRP. I have tried many times and i still can't enter TWRP before the samsung logo appears for 1-2 secs.
I am not able to flash Edgar28s bootloader and modem because it always gives me nand write error fail. I think it's because i'm not rooted with CFautoroot - and to get rooted with that way, i have to have USB debuggin on which i don't have.
What i think is, that i was very close but i still can't manage to enter TWRP (after installing) without the samsung logo appears for 1-2 secs. Because what you said before "Unfortunately, you must flash TWRP again to try once more, as soon as the samsung logo apperars, your custom recovery is overridden and thats it."
So what do you think now?
And btw thanks for all the help so far. I'm trying my best and following your steps but i always think i'm very close. I'm also so close to destroy my phone but i've read so many places that "it's only a softbrick, that can be fixed very easy".

OK, so you can enter the TWRP menu and install a ROM, right?
Any stock ROM from sammobile.com includes firmware, kernel and bootloader, so flashing the right one of these should reset all this.
Give it a try, for i think TWRP is actually working- otherwise you wouldn't get to the screen.
If the phone runs again with stock firmware, you can then flash a custom ROM.
And yeah, we're close, this can be only a minor flaw...it's near impossible to brick your android phone, so they say.
Don't worry mate, and be assured you're not the only one:
i just got stuck on bootloop also for a few minutes after upgrading to the newest version of XtreStoLite, which came out today.
Using TWRP, i could just flash back the previous version and all's good again.
Cya tomorrow...
EDIT:
I read through your previous comments again; the "md5sum"- issue seems to be a problem with the ROM file itself (corrupted or wrong version).
I'd bet that flashing the correct stock firmware for your carrier and model will solve the problem.
So enter the exact model number (like G920FXXU3COI9 or such) you have, get the right ROM and flash it with Odin 3.10.7
I couldn't find a denmark carrier on sammobile, eventually you have to look here at XDA, there's a list of stock imges as well.
Read lots of threads around this issue, almost all solved the problem flashing a stock ROM again.
Fingers crossed :fingers-crossed:

Yeah, i've never had problems entering TWRP menu. I can flash stock firmware via Odin but i can never do it via TWRP because it's says no md5 file found error - tho i can flash XtreStoLite (i think it's because it says aroma installer).
I've read many places about the md5 file error, but for some reason, i can't figure out how to fix it.
No, there is no Denmark model, but we have NEE (Nordic). The only stock firmware i can install is XEF (i don't remember where i got that from actually).
I will try agian and flash stock android via TWRP AND read about the md5 file error now/later. Tomorrow i will call the store i got the phone from and tell them i have a hardware issue or something like that. The guy owns a store for sellings covers, cases and stuff like that. He got the phone from Samsung free and sold it brand new in the package with 1 year warranty, so i will contact him tomorrow if i can't figure out how to flash stock android via TWRP or if it gives me error about the md5 file.
Talk to you tomorrow.
Update: I can not flash NEE model via Odin. Only XEF model - i also found out it was French firmware.
This is mainly a temporary repost of @rakomancha's TWRP announcement in a new thread. He is the maintainer of this TWRP but has not signed into XDA for a while. There is an updated TWRP that I wanted to share. When he comes back and creates his own thread, I will replace this post with a link to his.

[TWRP][RECOVERY] Asus ZenPad 3S 10 Z500M
The next big step forward for Z500M development is here!
This is the first working custom TWRP recovery for the Asus ZenPad 3S 10 Z500M [P027], based from TWRP v3.2.1.
diplomatic and I had both been working on a port separately, and I offered to test his version. In a few hours we worked out a functional and install-friendly version.
Please NOTE that this is NOT an official TWRP. After this post, I'll be working on making the port official and update here.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This project, and my own motivation, would not have been possible without the incredible work and input of:
diplomatic, who has been instrumental in propelling Z500M development forward. He worked on the issue of perm root and discovered and revealed important intricacies of the Z500M restrictive bootloader. By the end of Dec 2017, he developed a method to unlock the Z500M bootloader based on his amazing work with the Z380M. With amartolos as his testing assistant, the Z500M bootloader unlocking tool was quickly developed and released Jan 5th 2018.
overkillZ, who in Sept 2017 introduced us all to rooting the Z500M
toineh, who did legwork of establishing temp root by manipulating system permissions & redirecting files through adb. Then he took the boot.img posted by LGiki, explained how to patch it through Magisk and posted the first patched boot image. He also served as a guiding voice on this front.
amartolos, who first attempted perm flashing the patched boot image of toineh's method and worked with diplomatic on the developments afterward, which led us to today. Also has served as a guiding voice.
LGiki, who was the first to post an extracted WW_27 boot image that got things rolling forward
DISCLAIMER
This image has only been successfully tested by me at this point.
Please exercise caution and care when attempting to flash anything to your device.
You are completely responsible for any possible issues or damages resultant from undertaking the following procedures.
That being said, this image and method should be safe.
REQUIREMENTS
ZenPad Z500M tablet, upgraded to Android N
Bootloader Unlocked, using Diplomatic's tool. Tablet should be showing Orange State during initial bootup.
Root with Magisk installed, Permanent Root preferable
BACK UP YOUR INTERNAL USER DATA, in case you need to factory reset
TWRP for Z500M recovery image file [twrp-3.2.1-0-z500m.img]
Knowledge of adb/fastboot and basic Linux shell
INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure REQUIREMENTS are all met
Ensure to RE-READ all instructions and understand them before starting
Reboot into fastboot mode
do fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-z500m.img, TWRP should boot up in a few seconds. The theme should be blue.
In TWRP, go to BACKUP and back up Boot, Recovery, Data, System and SystemImage. Full backup took me about 10GB of space.
Copy the created TWRP Backup to your PC or an external location for safekeeping
Copy the TWRP twrp-3.2.1-0-z500m.img to tablet storage if not done already.
In TWRP, go to INSTALL, select Install Image and choose the twrp-3.2.1-0-z500m.img. Installation should only take a few seconds.
Unplug from USB and Reboot back into Recovery through the REBOOT menu
If installation went well, TWRP should boot up in a YELLOW theme. From my testing, I'm confident it is functionally the same.
RESOURCES
In this shared folder are

GOING FORWARD
I successfully tested replacement of Magisk with SuperSU. My steps taken were:
"Completely Uninstall" Magisk through the Magisk Manager
reboot directly into Recovery
INSTALL a previously downloaded official SuperSU zip file & REBOOT
I very much enjoyed this process of developing for uncharted regions of Android technologies and I owe all of that to the existence of this forum and the people in it. Next, I am reading up on porting a custom ROM, LineageOS looked very nice. I'll update here with significant progress until I get capability to start new forum threads. Thank you all and enjoy delicious functional TWRP custom recovery on your Z500M for the first time in history. Here's to looking forward to development exploding on this device.

ADDITIONAL WARNING: At first boot of TWRP, it will ask you if you want to keep system read-only. Touch the Keep Read Only button at this screen and only mount system in read-only mode if you need (rarely needed). This is necessary because of dm-verity and is no different than most Android 6+ devices. Unless you have unlocked your bootloader and installed permanent root with dm-verity disabled, mounting the system partition in r/w mode will make changes to it and your tablet will instantly become unbootable.
This is great. Tempted to try this. thanks for the effort!
Thank you very much, I did this and also switched to SuperSU with no problems!
Hi guys,
I have followed all the steps until 8 but I'm stuck at the install : TWRP ask me what partition to flash
boot, recovery or system image
Which one to choose ? I think it's boot but I don't want to make any mistake
Thanks

Well, recovery of course. ...because it's a custom recovery.
Hey guys I hope you can help me I had my Z500m partially rooted using the patched Magisk boot method and accidentally erased some stuff before I could permanently root it. Everything snowballed and all I have now is my firmware stored on pc I can get to fastboot mode but I have stock recovery still. can i flash my firmware through fastboot? I’ve been researching and it seems with Mediatek it’s different or at least not as simple. All searches keep coming up for Zenfone and I’m lost. Apologies if Im in wrong area.

There was a time that it was unthinkable development. I appreciate the time that cames after. Nice tutorial!
Nice work! I've got the Z500KL version of this tablet, so I'm hoping to port twrp to it at some point as well; if you have any tips or advice that might help it would be much appreciated! Although I'm fairly experienced with Linux this would be my first time working with Android, so I'm not sure if I'll succeed, but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway.
Hi, soleera,
To install TWRP, you must have some way to flash it and a bootloader that's either unlocked or doesn't care about unofficial images. I'm not sure that's possible in Z500KL. Look into that first. The Z500KL is about as much a version of this tablet as a Lenovo Tab4 is a version of this tablet. They are completely different platforms, just with a similar model name.
I've already managed to unlock the bootloader of my Z500KL and I've got fastboot working with it too, what I'm stuck on now is actually compiling twrp - I've already had a look at the guide here, but it's not very useful considering there are no .mk files for this model yet. If I had some idea about where to start I'd at least be able to start experimenting with the kernel / twrp source files and see where that leads me.

Oh, cool. How did you unlock it, btw? I know Asus makes you jump through hoops or doesn't allow unlocking altogether...
In case there is no device tree source (almost always), you start with an existing source tree for a phone with a similar platform. Then you adapt it for your device. Usually it's just a few changes, like the model numbers and importing your kernel. A quick search showed that the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 might fit the bill. Check out this thread for a TWRP build that someone has made for it...

Sounds good, I'll see what I can do when I get the time.
For some reason one of the official unlock tools for a different model worked on my tablet - I believe it was for the ZE552KL, although I could be wrong since I can't seem to install it any more ("the package conflicts with an existing package by the same name"). I'm definitely unlocked though since I can flash using fastboot without any errors...
Since we now have official unlock. Any chance at custom roms for this device? I would love to see it get some oreo love.

Hello soleera
Have you succeeded to port twrp to Z500KL?
Do you know of any custom recovery for Z500KL?
Do you know how to root it?

Since it seems to be possible to unlock the bootloader, you can always try the offline patching method of Magisk Manager. Just get your boot.img from the stock firmware and run it through MM to make a rooted patched boot img. Then using this patched image from your PC, do either 'fastboot flash boot' or 'fastboot boot' (for tethered boot) to obtain root. Done.

Basically, just do the procedure in this post. It's not that complicated. Reading through that thread may also help. Oh, and you have to unlock your bootloader first with an Asus unlock tool, as soleera has mentioned. I think the tool for the Z500M may work. It's essentially the same app for every device.

CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
BETA v4.08-B01
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 3.2.1 (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots for flashing ROMs. NOTE: The bigger you make the /data partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
Flashable zip:
Flash using Safestrap recovery or FlashFire.
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting (or the hard button underneath each option).
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
Flashable zip:
Flash using Safestrap recovery or FlashFire.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- Sometimes the installation doesn't work correctly. If you don't see the splashscreen after a rebooting. Install Safestrap again.

You can get full root on combination via wondershare app.
Old 5.1.1 also can have full root.
Hmmm. I have never heard of using Wondershare. The site looks sketchy, can you go more into detail for me? I'm also running nougat.
Also will their be ROMs soon?
Could I use existing ROMs that are on the general Note 5 forum?

I presume this only works on 6.0 and lower? It also just bootloops my phone on Android 7.0.
I can confirm that this is working as described. I flashed the combination firmware, rooted with wondershare, flashed safestrap via flashfire then flashed the ROM that this developer posted. What I have is a functional, rooted 5.1.1. I would love to have newer firmware, but I don't know what is possible.

That's a great question. I'm pretty sure I got it from some sketchy site that turned up in a google search. My theory on it was even if it was infected with something malicious, which I know has been a concern in the past, that it didn't matter because I really wasn't spending much time with the ROM booted, and I doubt there is anything tampered pre ROM, as we would have known about an exploit like that. So it might not fit your uses, my use was purely experimental and I didn't care if the device was compromised. All that being said I'll be glad to shoot you a link what I have if you're interested.
