what do i do next - Android General

i recently bought a galaxy tab s2 8inch tablet (sm-t719). i want to root it
i am following:-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7JjDfeIyRI and http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/development/twrp-3-0-2-1-galaxy-tab-s22016-sm-t713-t3390627
this is what i did until now:-
1) i copied the supersu zip file to the tablet
2) i ran odin on my laptop and i installed twerp on the tablet
3) i tried to do backup of boot, system and data. it said failed and cannot mount /data
4) it failed because:-
At the moment TWRP isn't working with encryption, this means the DATA Partition and internal storage cannot be mounted.
To mount the Data partition encryption needs to be removed and the boot image patcher needs to be flashed below.
This can be done via the FORMAT DATA button under the WIPE option in TWRP.
5) i did the format data and i got stuck. i dont know what to do next
i am unable to find the supersu zip file that i copied to the tablet. also if i say reboot then the tablet is not booting up and this is because of:-
After formatting DATA the boot image patcher can be flashed with TWRP. The boot image patcher MUST be flashed before booting the device to system.
what do i do next?
should i get an external sd card, put card in my laptop and copy on it the supersu zip file and the boot image patcher, put the sd card in the tablet then install the supersu and flash the image boot patcher? is this the only way?

@cns00 your status for now??? Did you able to boot or it won't turn on ????

i can turn on but i cant boot. it said i need to flash the image boot patcher so i can boot and i didnt do that
i put tablet in download mode. can i install the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip by using odin instead of doing it in twerp? if yes how?
can i flash the no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip by using odin instead of doing it in twerp? if yes how?
or do i need to get an external sd card and put both zip files on it and do it in twerp?

[Q] Help - TF101 not booting

I have a rooted transformer that wont boot (probably due me to replacing the build.prop file), i have a backup of the original file.
How can i access the internal storage so that i can replace the file in the system directory?
I can get to ClockworkMod Recovery but nothing in there will let me access the internal storage?

If you can get into CWM recovery, just flash the ROM again.
Also I have never tried it on the TF but in CWM there's a "mounts and storage", did you try that?
you can go through adb and move the files.
when mine wouldnt boot i ended up having to do the nvflash method in the dev section
although couldnt get my data off the the sd card as it has md5 mismatch so just started fresh with the nv flash

TWRP formatted data

Was trying to get the Data2SD mod on my tabby when I accidentally formatted data fromTWRP (Wipe->Format Data).
I don't have a backup.
I can boot to TWRP. I loaded CleanRom on to my external flash card then flashed it from twrp. It did not help. I am stuck in a boot loop at the Asus start up screen. Thought it might be a path issue so I copied it to the internal SD card and repeated the procedure. still no luck.
Does anybody know the steps required to get the tablet to load the OS again?

boot into twrp, do a factory reset, then flash cleanrom2.4, remove your micro sd card and see if it boot up.
Didn't work.
Something I noticed. i boot to twrp. use the file manager to copy a file from the /external_sdcard to the /sdcard. use the reboot option to shut down. boot to twrp again. check the /sdcard and the file is gone. /external_sdcard is fine but no files in /scard.
I can: copy CleanRom from /external_sdcard to /sdcard then install from /sdcard then reboot to twrp and the file i installed from in /sdcard is gone. still in /external_sdcard though.
If i
1) copy CleanRom from /external_sdcard to /sdcard
2) copy that file (/sdcard/CleanRom) to /
the operation fails in step 2) and twrp gets freaky(flashing the blue teamwin screen) and has to be rebooted. of course when i reboot, the only place i can find the file is in /external_scard.
if I:
1) copy CleanRom to / directory
2) copy that file (/CleanRom) to /sdcard
i get the same problem as mentioned above, twrp gets freaky and must be rebooted.
if I:
1) copy CleanRom from /external_sdcard to /sdcard
2) try to rename /sdcard/CleanRom
The operation fails, but no reboot.
i'm using the twrp file manager for all of these operations as i can't get booted to the OS.
btw i'm using twrp v2.3.1.0 and cleanRom2.4

Seems like something is corrupted. Do a clean install - Use twrp and flash Asus full rom.
Would the "Asus Rom" be CN_epad-user-10.4.4.20.zip? I found this on the Asus site.

Look at the build numbere in about tablet, is it US or CN or what?
First off, Thanks for the help. My tabby is once again living.
I actually downloaded this and tried it yesterday. It would not flash so I assumed that the problem was elsewhere. This time i took a closer look and found the problem. It would only flash from /external_sd, and I was trying from / or /sdcard. Also it had an error when mounting /system so i went into the twrp mount screen and manually mounted /system. At that point it flashed successfully. I rebooted after the flash and ended up in a boot loop at the Asus bios screen. I tried to go back into recovery but the flash of the Asus image removed twrp, so all that was available was Android recovery. I tried recovery option, but it halted on the "dead android" screen. I tried wipe data and then it worked!
Didn't realize the CN (guess I should went EN) was a language. flashed it anyway and seems to be working. Would there be any ill effects?
When I get home tonight I will put twrp back on and continue the process of destruction...I mean modding!

If you formatted system there is no os to boot into... You need the zip file on the sd card before doing anything like that and you also must check that the recovery you are using can read that sd card otherwise its back to pc Odin for you to re-install an OS, reroot and install a recovery...

How to install rom after full wipe and without sideload success

Hi,
I want to install the Noble Nougat Experience 4.5 so the first I did was to copy the zip file into the download folder. Then i booted into revovery (twrp 3.1) mode, wiped all but internal storage and did a format data but the zip file was lost (I think format data was one step too much?!) . Then I tried with adb sideload but I alwyas got the error "can't load xy.zip" so I tried a random zip file from desktop and this was loaded properly. Now iam stucked in recovery mode with no OS and no idea how to get the zip file to install it.
Can someone help me please?

Hi,
connect your s6 to your computer in TWRP go to Advanced the ADB Sideload then swipe to start sideload
After that press Cancel.
your device must appear in your computer as MTP device so, move "Noble zip" file to your device And flash it.
Regards,

How to flash rom via twrp? rom zip not appearing on sd card

Hello guys,
I am looking for help because I am lost.
I have a motorola one vision, its rom is XT1970-3_kane_reteu_RSAS31_48_36_21 according to the lenovo rescue tool
I had flashed XT1970-3_KANE_RETEU_PL_11_RSAS31.Q1-48-36-23_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml via fastboot
I later was trying to install twrp and magisk to root the phone (to later try to extract data from the userpartition after a factory reset, kind of mission impossible I guess)
I was somehow able to install twrp but later when trying to boot the system the system was simply not there anymore. I must have messed around a bit
I am able to boot in recovery mode to twrp and I need to flash a rom. I would like to reset to factory or to obtain a bootable system and here I am stuck
I have the zip file of XT1970-3_KANE_RETEU_PL_11_RSAS31.Q1-48-36-23_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip on the external SD card
Currently if I try to boot the system after the logo the phone turns off
I turn on the phone, I get to the bootlooder. I had the bootlocker unlocked. I select recovery mode and enter twrp and here I am stuck:
If I select restore and select storage sd card no file to use for the restore appears in my sd card
If I select install I see the XT1970-3_KANE_RETEU_PL_11_RSAS31.Q1-48-36-23_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
I get invalid zip file format, error installing zip file
Should I use the other zip file? should this rom have another format?
I cannot reflash via fastboot currently
Thanks in advance
May be I have solved:
I saved on the SD card:
lineage-19.1-20220618-nightly-kane-signed.zip
lineage-19.1-20220618-recovery-kane.img
Via twrp I installed the .img file, a recovery tool (the recovery tool will substitute twrp)
(I accessed if I remember well from advanced, install ramdisk or something similar. I did not know exactly what I was doing, intuition was guiding me)
Rebooting the system through the recovery tool I applied the zip file
Later I resetted to factory via the recovery tool.
Once rebooted Lineage OS started in 10m
Now I can eventually reflash the motorola original rom via fastboot
