Please note I don't own this device and spend a lot of my free time bringing these builds for you to use and benefit from.
FEEDBACK IS APPRECIATED.
THANKS.
DONATE ME HERE IF YOU WANT TO BUY ME A BEER OR HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED YOU
.

NOTE ON ROOTING WITH TWRP:
If you have kingroot installed remove this before rooting with SuperSU above or you will have issues.
Kingroot attempts to block Supersu so must be removed first by using the uninstaller in the Kingroot superuser app.

Absolutely NO feedback
Out of literally hundreds of people that have downloaded and benefitted from the files I've posted NOT ONE person has left ANY feedback whatsoever and only 5 have hit the thanks button and 2 very generous people have offered donations to whom I am very thankful.
As developers we need encouragement and ALL we ask is a quick click on the thanks button and a little feedback.
It's not too much to ask is it for hours of work on a device we don't even own?
XDA is a 2 way community, it's GIVE and TAKE not just TAKE.
Due to this I have decided I am not going to update the builds to the new TWRP v3.0.0-0.
Thank you.

Come on people. It is not asking to much to thank someone for giving us what we need to make our tablets much better. Over in the T-Mobile S6 thread we have the same issues. These devs do this for us in their spare time for free, so showing a little appreciation is not asking a lot.

Hi, sorry for the late reaction. I succesfully installed your custom recovery but than i had trouble with SD card, it wouldn't get locked in the slot so i couldn't try the backup and restore funtions.
Now SD problem is fixed but when i boot into recovery i get stock, TWRP is gone so first chance i get i'll try to flash it again (don't have a PC available right now).
It would be a shame if you would stop working on our device, you gave us a very important tool for witch i would like to thank you.

You don't need a pc. Extract the recovery.img from the .tar file and then flash with flashify.

I've not rooted yet and i'd like to have a backup before i do, so i guess i'll just wait a bit and flash with Odin.

I want to thank @ashyx for getting Root &TWRP for the Tab E. I bought my SM-T560NU one week ago today. The first thing I did when I got home was to search for Root & Recovery and I found this thread. Everything flashed fine for me. Without devs like @ashyx on XDA we would be stuck with ordinary Tablets & Phones. So make sure to hit the thanks button and post feedback to let them know if things are working or not. It's not that hard to do.

+1, I haven't tried it yet on my wife's SM-T560NU 'coz my wife always have the tablet with her. She wouldn't even let me get close to it since I screwed up her phone. I will report ASAP when I get a chance to steal the tablet and root it (hopefully successful).
Thanks to @ashyx in advance and to guys reporting back on their experience. Please keep the thread alive.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Smt560nu rom
Was anyone able to find the stock ROM for SM-T560NU on SAMMOBILE?
** EDIT ** I've tried two different computers, reinstalling samsung drivers and different ports. Can't seem to get past the setup connection step in ODIN. Does anyone have any suggestions?
** EDIT 2** Got it working! Thanks ashyx!

Mount Problem
When i tried to install a rom, it says 'Could not mount...blabla'. So I did go to the mount-tab and checked it for the second time and it still fails. Help me please

Hello! I have just finished reading through this thread and wanted to say thank you for all your hard work and dedication ashyx and the testers! I am about to purchase this tablet and wanted to know if model number SM-T560NZKUXAR is compatible with the files you created?
**edit** I just purchased the tablet and it is a SM-T560NU when I get home from work I will test this out and leave feed back

Are you attempting to flash the stock rom with twrp? As far as Im aware there is no custom rom for this device?

I apologize for the stupid question here, but if I am just wanting to do root do i have to flash twrp_2.8.7.0_sm-t560nu.tar first? Or can I just flash the root file

If you're talking about this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3300291
Then you don't need to install twrp.
However installing custom recovery and making a backup is one of the best mods you can do to your device.

When I got my Sm-t560nu last week the first thing I did was flash the TWRP 2.8.7.0 tar in ODIN, then I flashed the chainfire su file in ODIN to root it and everything went fine for me. After that I made a backup just like @ashyx suggested.

Ok thank you so much for all your help!! I did the root part successfully which is what I wanted. I don't understand the purpose of doing the twrp

Nubia X: ROOT, TWRP and GAPPS

Attention: This is a post aimed for Developers only! Check the How-To instead!
Welcome to this progress Thread.
In this thread im going to collect links, thinks I have done at my own and other stuff related to making the Nubia X more useful outside china.
CHECKPOINTS:
ROOT ✓
UNLOCK BOOTLOADER ✓
FLASH Original Recovery ✓
GENERATE Tree
COMPILE TWRP for Nubia X NX616J
FLASH TWRP X
FLASH GApps X/✓ (partial working)
LINKS:
TWRP for a new device: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32965365#post32965365 (because nubia x is not officially supported yet, but im working on it).
ROOT Nubia X: bbs.nubia.cn/thread-1396991-1-1.html (The toolkit, as messed up as it looks, works just fine. Close the first window and click root while having an OEM unlocked phone).
ORIGINAL ROM (will upload it on mega because the chinese provider is absolut unusable) <- edit later :good:
What I've done so far is successfully rooting the phone (using the toolkit above), unlocking the bootloader (i guess) with
Code:
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX616J
where NUBIA_NX616J is the pass.
After running this command you will get the following output:
Code:
(bootloader) START update nubia fastboot unlock flag!!!
(bootloader) set state to 1 ok!!!
OKAY [ 0.009s]
Finished. Total time: 0.010s
And after this, you can simply flash using
Code:
fastboot flash <partition> <filename>.img
.
Im currently checking the specs for the device so I can compile a TWRP for it.
Also, you can't flash Gapps right now because TWRP is unavailable as long as I / or someone else don't create a device tree for this phone.
But you can install all GApps apk's (most importantly the Google Service Framework (GSM) apk). After that, just convert the apps
to system apps using Link2SD App. (Search App -> Options -> Convert to System App (or: Include Update to System....).
Actually, I guess I finished the device tree.
Check this one out:
https://mega.nz/#!HiZQkApR!473uATQeZp224i_aka84bYszYlPnlsyo0dDaJp32NZo
If this is the right one, we could successfully compile TWRP for this device! :fingers-crossed:
Alright, I need to change stuff but here's what I have right now:
The phone is a bit tricky when it comes to partitions.
But I've managed to get all the required stuff ready to set up TWRP.
Maybe I'll try the compiled version on my own or I'll force br_other to test it out >!
Well check back here later, for updates.
LAST CHECKPOINT: 13.12.2018.

Please note:
If youdo that operation through the tool mentioned in the link above, be careful with the Magisk installed.
Do not upgrade it, because the phone will go into a bootloop (like me ).
Although you can recover it from that stage, it's pretty annoying, especially if you don't have data backup.

Yes, that's right don't do that.
Use Google Translate to translate the Chinese Tutorial (Important, I can't re-upload it because it's not mine!).
And create a backup before doing anything.
It's not that likely to happen that your phone is brick after doing these steps but it might be possible.
Be careful bois.
Another thing to mention:
Don't run any ADB commands mentioned above!
This is not a Tutorial - this is a progress thread for other Developer (and for people interested in rooting their nubia).

hi all, I'm new here, I'm thinking of buying this Nubia X, but I'm worried that Google Play won't work. Do the main apps, such as Maps, Gmail or Google Play and google play game updates work?

Download Tool
Hi guys,
is there any Possibility to Download the Root tool, without any failures or additional stuff?
I dont speak any chinese and the given Mirrors are both unusable.
The one from Micro Cloud jus doesnt open and the other one from Baidu Cloud asks me to download the Baidu software, no matter what i click.
Does anyone know how or where to download the tool except from using the Baidu Manager?

Hey guys,
Sorry - I was too tired to do the tutorial yesterday.
But imma do it now !
The phone works perfectly (in the view of a developer) with the Google Apps.
Im looking forward to get TWRP working with that phone when I have more free-time.
Until then, sure, the phone is perfectly usable.
Check back in a few hours, I will create a new thread or update this one.
Cheers :victory:

Hey Teeemoo

Hi guys,
I need a very big help for my Nubia x.
Today I have updated my Nubia x via otg with new Rom V 2.20. Everything worked very well, but after I have made a big mistake trying to root it but I have completely bricked my phone.
No recovery anymore. It's only possible to connect via EDL with Nubia Emergency tool 1.1.6 but that version it's not yet available for Nubia x.
I ask if someone have some tool or files to get it back in life.
Thank you very much and Merry Christmas

Hi,
If you have access to fastboot and / or bootloader we can try to flash the original boot and recovery image.
Just send me a PM with details and I'll try to connect via TeamViewer in order to help you.

I'm curious. Can you please give some more details here?
You said you did update it via OTG? Does it means you did that trough the recovery mode?
Also was the phone rooted before that?
Also as my friend said - check if you can go in recovery and try the fastboot access as well.
Post some update of your progress as well.

Please help, Samsung A11 - TRWP problem

Hi everyone,
Recently I purchased and Samsung A11. I wanted to root it and unlocked the bootloader first. Than I used Odin to install TRWP recovery. Odin showed "PASS" and I was supposed to press certain buttons which didn't work. Phone kept coming back to "Download Mode" although I pressed those buttons. So I was stuck. The only option was to cancel the download mode, so I pressed volume down + power button for more than 7 seconds. That was the end Now the phone turns on until I see the Samsung logo, there's a small vibration but it can't go forward. It resets back and now stuck in a loop. None of the buttons work including Volume Down+Power combination. Don't know what I am supposed to do now. Can anybody help?
Thanks...

1. Add Samsung A11 to this thread's title thus mainly owners of such a phone get addressed
2. My recommendation: Re-flash STOCK ROM to get rid off of all mods you applied.

As I can see you are proud owner of a softbricked phone.
Take it to authorized service center and let them fix it.

I plan to let it die on battery and will try to see if I can turn on "Download Mode" after recharging. Do you think it may work?

it wouldn't ... usually the cause of bootloop is certain corrupted partition and as long as that partition is corrupted it would keep bootlooping.
if you doesn't know what your doing your best bet is Take it to authorized service center and let them fix it. like what @jwoubeir said

I don't have the A11 model but have used this on other A models that were in the same loop.
Press the volume up and down at the sametime and plug in the usb cable.
This has to be done within a second or two after it vibrates and before it reboots and will likely take a few tries. Good Luck

great tip work on ADB too anyway OP is provably using sp flashtool since his phone is samsung so this method would be rather tricky

Yayy, I managed to get into the "Download mode" doing exactly how @sammiev told and I tried flashing another TRWP file thinking that might have caused the problem but nothing has changed. Same loop again ! So I flashed the original ROM back using Odin and it's back live again Thanks for the help guys. But to be honest, I am still curious. What might be the problem in not getting TRWP flashing going right?

The version I used is "twrp-3.5.0_10-3_afaneh92-a11q.tar"
I also tried rooting with Magisk without the need of TRWP installation. That was also unsuccesfull. Odin was PASS but I got bootloader screen saying Secure Check Fail : vbmeta
Here's the screenshot of Magisk fail in "Download Mode"
Can't figure out what's wrong ...

Have you flashed the latest stock rom to this device?
Was there other TWRP files for this model?
Is other people having trouble with this model?
I never worked on A11 Samsung yet
I would hate to give you bad info and have you brick your phone.

Following your advice, I managed to get into the Download Mode and I flashed the original rom. So phone is up and running now but not rooted. So I've been trying to root again first with Magisk to bypass the need of TRWP installation and with others which need TRWP installation first. There seems to be something blocking the flashing of anything other than the original rom !! On the link I shared above, there are other (older version) TRWP files. Shall I try them?

Usually the latest TWRP with the latest firmware.

Check my profile, your KG stated is ****ed. There is nothing you can do about it, there is abosulutly no way to fix this without unsoldering the eMMC and resetting it entirely. Some people on 4PDA had the same problem and found no fix. I was hopping to develop a custom rom but I cant as my kg state is prenormal. This mexican dude on youtube fixes devices with KG and FRP issues, but yeah this aint something that you can do at home. At least I learned not to buy any samsung devices in the future https://www.youtube.com/c/TeamOcmineMMCBootRepair
edit: nvm your oem is unlocked, you can just flash the vbmeta reset script via odia and everything should flash fine.

All instructions are included inside the main folder of tools, seriously... and i mean seriously...please read the 3 or 4 different guides/methods to see which ones you actually need to do. Some are not needed depending on your end goal. I spent a month making every error possible and testing things so you dont have to so save yourself the trouble and read through
Ill do my best to answer any questions or issues you might have but please...please use your eyeballs and google.. i really dont want to have to answer questions like "how flash magisk" etc. Google is there.. it is your friend , use it. XD

I did something with it when I reset Frp and now it does not start, it is defined simply as the mtk port...does not enter into any of the modes (recovery or loading) does not respond to charging
yes i just want to run it on stock firmware

Just follow the Unbrick directions that will get your phone back working stock. If you don't have scatter firmware for your device youll need to make that also, tools are included

I followed the steps, I was inattentive myself) but still ran into a problem

when you enter Samsung Enable Brom by PGPT, nothing happens to the phone...

Through such a bypass, I was able to see at least some kind of response from the flash tool, but the error

well, if I put it from SM-A125W, then the rollback error

Will that work for the Samsung Galaxy A13

Apologies for the stupid question, but this part:
**Follow the instructions Provided by A125U Root bit 3 by FixMX file to actually unlock the bootloader and root the device**
don't seem to be included in the zip file, unless I'm a buffoon and didn't notice them.
Is a FixMX a user who already wrote a guide for this? I just need to unlock the bootloader and then I can follow basic directions from there to get what I need.

I have no idea which directions your directions your talking about the only ones I wrote are the ones in the main folder , probably with a bunch of exclamations. I can't remember and don't have the file with me right now but as far as unlocking the bootloader you just need to get the phone to accept different firmware. Try flashing Sm-a125w Canadian version XAS

Nothing will happen. Once your in brom mode you need to use another tool to unlock the bootloader and disable secureboot everything is included

Nothing happened .. I got upset and put the phone on the shelf, told the owner to pick it up and carry it to the service center, but they didn’t take it to the service center

Nothing is supposed to happen if nothing happens that is good . Just leave the phone connected how it is and use a mediatek unlocking tool

When i get to the oart in your instructions that says to open the MTKMETATOOL file i just get a message informing me that it has expired and to see the developer. Is there another link to open the tool somewhere else? Ive looked at the other option to get a windows tool from github that you included but i can admit that im not as savvy as i would like to believe and all ive ever used is windows so i have no idea what to do with all of that on github. I hate having to bother you guys but i really would appreciate the help. Thanks in advance and you guys are just awesome!

The phone is running MIUI 13, thus it's Linux kernel should be version 5.1+ what makes rooting Android via Magisk obsolete: progressive users flash KernelSU

FYI : I Just Receive Information From My Friends From Beijing China, He Can Root 12C Earth Redmi And TWRP Using TWRP 3.4.0.0 DaVinci, BUT He Is In Official China Rom Stable, I Don't Know With Global, Let Me Try Tonights Or By Tomorrow Mornings, Let's Not Gave Up A Hope, I Believe There Is A Way To Jailbreak This One Phone

Edit Failed Because I Can't Flash At All, Using SP Flash Tool Always Broom Error, While Mi Flash Tool error When Installing Driver, I Already Make Boot.img Patch With Magisk But Trouble On Flashing, Any Help?
Edit 2 : Try temporary boot via adb always error "TOO MANY LINKS", While im afraid to flash using adb because it's side A/B type boot, so for a while maybe i can't do anything unless there is twrp for this phone, so my case for this phone is closed here [so sorry can't do anything much for help, bcoz this phone is my wife's phone so i don't want to ruin her mood if i forcing to far more than this and if anything goes bad brrrr... can't think of it anymore lmao], I hope someday or a few days again there is more master to gave hand to try root and gave this phone twrp recovery

Try with another pc…if you get driver error

NB : Finally can TEMP BOOT magisk patch Boot.img but not working, i think because the DISABLE DM VERITY is necessary need so i can't do anything if it mean FLASHING, the magisk it's still N/A/not installed even i boot temp from magisk patch boot.img while the twrp is can't boot [still error too many links], so i gave up till this processing, btw i try 2 twrp from orange fox anddavinci but it same error too many links, i think as long the DISABLE DM VERITY installed the magisk wont work and i cannot change A side because its always unknown command and the GETVAR always on side B so im stuck on this exploration and finally gave up]
