Rooted, Custom Rom a huge fail - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello dear Community!
It is depressing that my first appearance here is to ask for help, but I am going crazy.
So, I tried to Root my phone via Odin + CF Autoroot klte and it seemed to have been a success.
The root checker also said, that my device was rooted so I went on and installed TWRP to be able to install Lineage OS.
After getting Lineage to work I got a few error messages suddenly popping up, telling me that either "Music had stopped" or other android operation were closed because they didn't work properly.
I tried to install Gapps, it seemed to have worked but I was only able to open and enter the store once, afterwards the store never managed to load and then the app closed itself after starting it.
So I checked again with Root Checker, but this time it gave me an error message, too. It said, that my device was not rooted properly.
I guess this is were I made it worse by deciding to just root the phone again. Obviously, it didn't work either.
Afterwards I thought that maybe installing The Original Android OS and then unrooting the phone would be the best solution to be able to start anew.
First I tried to flah Lineage again and that made it impossible for me to boot the phone. The farthest I got was the setup page, were it tells you Hello and were you can choose a Language, but clicking the arrow key didn't do anything at all.
The recovery mode was also not the TWRP one anymore, but the original Android one and that was a huge problem for me.
Then I tried to flash the 6.1 OS for the S5 (I made sure it was the correct version), but now it is stuck at the "Samsung" screen while it boots.
It never boots though.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Please, I beg you, could anyone help me out?

Don't flash the latest Lineage OS ROM
Hello AsylumAlice u shouldn't have flashed the latest Lineage OS ROM because now u will need a new motherboard for your S5 since the ROM corrupts the MMC chip now u will need to get a new MMC chip or a new Motherboard sorry that your s5 is now hard bricked but when u get it fixed flash the DreamUX S8 Rom it works flawless on my S5 SM-G900i

What are the grounds for your claims?
You needn't root via CF-autoroot if your end goal was to flash lineage. CF autoroot was intended to root stock roms with ease and less effort.
Flash The LATEST, official TWRP via odin then do a FULL WIPE. Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache.
From here on, you have two options:
1.) Sideload the LineageOS rom via ADB
2.) Transfer it to the phone's storage via MTP and flash it from TWRP.
As for how to accomplish this, the forum search bar and Google has your back. You need only choose one procedure.
If you need the Play Store, flash gapps AFTER flashing LINEAGE AND BEFORE REBOOTING.
Since you were under the idea that utilizing CF-autoroot was a necessity, I suggest that you re-read this post thoroughly before actually putting it into practice.

Thank you so much for your fast reply!
-> I flashed the newest Version for klte via Odin, but I can't get into the boot mode.
I only am able to enter the download mode. What can I do now?

Flash TWRP via odin again, untick the Auto-Reset option of Odin first. Then try booting to recovery via long holding the power, home and volume up button simultaneously without releasing any of the buttons until you successfully see the TWRP splash screen.
If that still doesn't work, reboot to recovery via adb from download mode. You need the adb and the usb drivers for your device.
If that still doesn't work, you might have flashed an incompatible version of TWRP.

Thank you so much, it worked perfectly!
I can now start my phone and use it normally.
But the Root Checker still says:
"Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device.
Device: SM-G900M
Android version: 7.1.2"
What should I do from now on?
Thank you so much for your help (agaiN).
And as for why I used the auto-root, well I just followed a guide that I found, it only had positive reviews so I assumed it was a correct tutorial.

I thought about doing that, but wasn't sure how exactly to proceed and what Version to install.
I downloaded SuperSU v.2.82 and put it on my internal storage.
Just install over TWRP the same way that I Installed Lineage and Gapps I suppose?
I guess if it doesn't work out, I just follow the steps from above again and retry?
Thank you so much. I feel like in idiot in this situation.

Lg g2 no os at all

Hi!
First I tell you how I recently messed up my LG G2 D802.
I hadn't had a custom rom for ages and now I wanted to have one (This wasn't the first time. I've done this a lot earlier). I had always had root access, but not custom recovery. So the first thing was to install one and I chose to download Rom Manager from Google Play, and then install ClockWorkMod. So, when I was installing the custom recovery I came up with a problem: something went wrong during the installation (I have no idea why). When I booted the device, white letters and numbers appeared on the top left of the screen, saying something like: "boot certification error" and numbers like "[780] [800]" and so on. The screen went black and the phone didn't load the OS. So I was shocked of course because I had never had such a problem.
So, desperate for trying everything to find the solution, I tried tens of ways to try to fix the problem. Finally I read about thing called SRKTool. So I used it and ended up having TWRP on my device, and no OS at all. I tried to flash CM12 and CM12.1 (downloaded from the official site) but nothing works out. TWRP says that flashing the ROM is succesful but when rebooting the system it doesn't load the OS but it comes back to TWRP Recovery mode - WHATEVER I DO. I can't enter the Download -mode at all. I tried hard reseting (Power + Vol - keys), but once again it boots to the TWRP. I can't understand why the TWRP fails to flash the ROM even though it's saying the process was successful. Or maybe this problem is much more internal - and permanent.
After tens of XDA developers' threads I'm writing this here because I'm in need of help. I want to bring my G2 to back in life. I'm out of ideas. Can you help me? I tried to flash the stock firmware but guess what happened? The installation failed, and the device booted back to TWRP. So all I'm able to do is to use the TWRP Recovery. I appreciate your help. Thank you.
(Ps. I'm sorry if I break the rules by writing a new thread. My problem just seems to be so unique that I couldn't find help anywhere.)
If you have access to twrp than you can do what ever is needed
what twrp version douy you have?

The solution is easy. Download the stock rom for your model and install it with otg cable. The reason cm12 is not booted is because you need jb bootloader or caf bootstacks.

The current version is 2.8.7.3. Should I try other versions?
Did you solve the issue? Or is it still not allowing you to get into your F/W?

Hi!
I tried to install TWRP version 2.6.6.3, but it fails to flash it so I'm stuck with the version 2.8.7.3. All I'm able to enter is just the recovery mode. I can't enter the download mode so I can't flash the stock firmware.
Currently I'm out of ideas. I can't flash any OS, the TWRP fails everytime and creates errors.
Try flash bumped kernel like lp dorimanx then flash bumped bootstak then lp rom like cloudy or stock. Or google this: lg g2 unbrickable now xda ...that work for me

NEW LINK: DOWNLOAD
________________________________________
How to install​​
Via app:
1) Download TWRP 3.0.0-0 from the link above and place it on internal storage of your phone.
2) Download Flashify app from Google Play Store.
3) Open Flashify app.
4) Grant root permissions.
5) Click "Recovery image" and then click "Choose a file"
6) Navigate to the folder where you placed TWRP 3.0.0-0 and choose the .IMG file.
7) Press "Yup!" button and wait.
8) After a while the phone will require reboot. So click "reboot" button.
9) Phone will reboot and automatically boot into TWRP, so you can press reboot to system.
10) Enjoy!
Special thanks to Oneb1t for modded .fstab file! :highfive:
edit: you can use Flashfire app too instead of Flashify, but it's not recommended, because the latest version of the Flashfire app is not flashing properly.
Brilliant! Thank you so much! Do you know any custom ROM what is better than the factory ROM?
There is no custom ROM for this phone yet.
But I'm trying to make LITE ROM.

Do you think it's easier/possible to adapt a ROM from a similar device like say, the Alcatel
Pop 2 (5) Premium ? I don't know if there's any ROM for that phone tho, but since it's branded as Alcatel you might get more support from the community here than by using Vodafone's name.
Hello, Demonlord6.
I have tried to make a stock flashable ROM via dumping the system folder and the boot.img file, but without success.
It does not boot properly.. when I tried to flash it without dalvik/system wipe everything was as before.
When I tried to wipe /system and dalvik first and then flash the ROM, it causes bootloop.
So now I'm trying to fix this issue..
I don't know where the problem is.
So when this issue will be solved I will try to build a ROM from Alcatel phones with same specs.

Hey, Andreno306
I don't know much about Rom's in that level of expertise I'm afraid :/ but I did some digging and came across this simple tutorial on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387941
I imagine it does not work for every single device out there, at least not with modifying stuff after, but it might be a good starting point I think, in fact I would try to actually make one myself had I a working PC currently at home. But even if I did I had no way of testing it because this is currently my daily driver phone.
Just wanted to say that I'm also very interested in getting a slim ROM for this device. I can't offer any expertise I'm afraid! Just wanted to show that there are people interested in your project.

I have one

But I recommend to restore it with the flashify app, because that's how the backup was made.
If, for some reason, you don't/can't restore it, then you can always try Sugar on the PC which basically restores everything to factory settings (recovery, kernel, etc, it all gets reset)

Sorry there about the bootloop but glad u could restore it from TWRP, maybe it was because we have different ROM versions ?

Sorry for the stupid question but... does it works on Smart Prime 7 too?
Has anyone installed that linked ROM? It seems to be what we are looking for... a slim debloated rom.
I presume we need to be rooted, install this TWRP, then flash that ROM?
It mentions unlocking the bootloader, I dont think I've seen any info anywhere about unlocking the bootloader.
Can anyone give a quick lowdown on all the steps required to install that ROM please?
Hi everyone, I discovered that Elephone Trunk and Smart Prime 6 have (almost) identical specs: https://www.devicespecifications.com...ison/c584481c6
So it would be great to "port" (or build ?) the official Nougat-OmniROM for Trunk to VF-895N: http://dl.omnirom.org/trunk/
Last but not least, here's official Vodafone Smart Prime 6 sources: Vodafone_Smart_prime_6_20150413.tar.xz
TWRP for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
I tried this recovery image for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
The phone is in a bootloop state. I think i have usb debugging enabled already.
So, in fastboot mode i can see the device in my pc in adb fastboot cmd.
Im trying to ''fastboot boot recovery.img" but it stops in ''booting..''.
Dont know whats the problem but for sure i can not find a specific twrp image for this device.
If i enter fastboot oem device-info it says ''(bootloader) Device unlocked: true''.
Any ideas ?
hi i was wondering if you could share how you did this or if you can make one for the Vodafone smart n9 (VFD720) it would help a lot of people out looking for this
Needed to root a Vodafone Smart Prime 6 (VF 895N) (got it from a friend because it became unresponsive from all the updated google play stuff ) to get linux-deploy running. Just wanted to leave a big thank you here for Adreno306 for his TRWP 3.0.0-0. it did the job very well!
Only the procedure to get it installed differed quite a bit for me, since Flashify is no longer available.
I wanted to preserve boot and just flash trwp to recover, what worked quite well.
The first thing I did was to boot the phone manually in recovery mode (Power+Vol up) and reset it to factory settings from there. It takes a little while. Then follow the setup, go to phone settings, enable developer mode and set usb debugging. If "unlock oem" is not available there, reboot into recovery again, set unlock there and reboot into bootloader.
The prerequisites are adb and fastboot, both must work. Means adb devices and fastboot devices must show the phone. What can make problems under win10 as it sometimes does not detect the phone in bootloader mode. An actual google usb driver is needed, as provided by google.
For me adb worked well, but when rebooted into bootloader with adb reboot bootloader, fastboot didnt detect the phone. With the phone still connected, the windows device manager showed an unknown device with and exclamation mark (!). Right click, install driver, select driver manually, select driver from device list, mark all devices (first entry) and click "disk", then point to the usb driver director and select "ADB fastboot driver". ( A more comprehensive description is available here )
Once adb and fastboot detect the device, it is time to prepare it. Boot to system (normal operation) first. Make sure that the TRWP 3.0.0-0.img is renamed to trwp.img and then
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot boot trwp.img
Now the phone should show the trwp menu, set it up to root the phone and install SuperSU. Reboot into bootloader and
fastboot flash recovery trwp.img
fastboot reboot
Verify with adb reboot recovery, you should see trwp now. Reboot to system.
Now finally go into the app selector, start SuperSU, and root the phone. SuperSu uses trwp recovery mode to install its image and root is done.
Again, big thanks for providing the TRWP image!

Hi, I would like to try your tutorial but I can't root this phone (which is an important step in the tutorial), is there any way someone could help me??
Thanks

Messed up my Flashing somehow

I wanted to install Xposed on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-910C Version 6.0.1
So through a lot of "googling" i found a way to root my phone with Chainfire through Odin Flashing, which worked (Root Checker confirmed it so i guess it worked)
After a few more google searches i managed to flash TWRP Recovery through Odin which also worked.
Here's where i went a bit off instructions: After TWRP i went on to attempt installing Xposed Firmware on to my phone. I downloaded An Xposed APK from the instruction website i was reading but it also required i download another Xposed file which i went on to install through TWRP recovery. This particular File i donwloaded from another source since the one on the instruction site's mirror was broken, it was Armv7 and it matched what my phone's hardware required.
After installing this Xposed file on TWRP i went on to reboot my phone but before this TWRP told me that root access wasn't installed and prompted me to install SuperSU, this really confused me since Root checker said that i already had Super User turned On. I don't know why but i actually agreed to it and installed it AGAIN.
My phone rebooted until the animated Samsung Logo came on and it never moved past that for about an hour.
Right now all i can do is pull my battery out and boot recovery, i tried factory resetting my phone and wiping everything. now what happens is TWRP keeps on prompting me to install SuperSU and now it doesn't even reach the animated Samsung logo it always gets stuck on the [Samsung GALAXY Note 4].
I'm sorry if i posted this text wall but i thought these details might help, can anyone help me?
Edit: Sorry for the title don't know how to change it, fyi i wanted to change that to "Messed up trying to install Xposed Framework"

Since you have twrp, find supersu.zip and save into sdcard. Flash supersu.zip to gain root access. And for xposed. Make sure it is arm-sdk23.

and btw how exactly do i save this into my sd card, i can't get past the product logo.
also thanks a lot for replying man
edit: oh wait if you mean put the zips into an external sd card imma try that now. thx
Hi,
You have to use custom built version of xposed if you use stock or any touchwiz-based-rom(other versions cause bootloops). Just google 'xposed custom build by wanam'. Hope that helps.
Just wanted to clear some stuff up, if i am able to flash supersu.zip and a custom built xposed framework, will my phone stop getting stuck on the product logo?
Because being unable to use my phone normally is my top priority right now. The root and getting xpose3d installed is secondary. I really can't get through the product logo, i hope someone can shed some light on this.
but still, i really appreciate your replies.

I strongly believe you flashed wrong xposed zip. There is no arm7 zip by wanam. Hence find arm-sdk23. I think the last 1 is v81.
Supersu is just to give you root access. I won't causing phone to stuck at boot logo. Or do you mean splash screen showing 'samsung galaxy note 4'?

I honestly don't know if that will solve the problem, but you can try it. If it doesn't work, try flashing a rom via recovery or stock rom via odin. Since your data is already gone, I would suggest you wiping your phone completely and flashing a custom rom(I have a SM-N910C as well and I use erobot). Before doing anything, do a full backup in recovery, just in case.
Edit: If you wiped everything in recovery, including /system, that is probably the reason why your phone is stuck. Flash a rom and yo should be good.
Yeah that one exactly, splash screen showing note 4.
so based on what you guys said i should first flash a ROM so it works normally and then i can attempt for Supersu and Xposed arm-sdk23? was watching this random video you think i might have somehow wiped my touchwiz OS? was fiddling around in the Recovery trying to solve it you think i might have done that?
Since you have the same phone and you are using erobot i might go for that same ROM just to be on the safe side, i don't want to try something random.
So first try flashing custom ROM >> SuperSU >> Xposed
That's what i'm going for (i might need confirmation haha kinda scared now, i think i almost bricked my phone)
I believe your phone has to be rooted before you can install a custom rom. I can't tell if your is, but I would do the following:
Make a full backup in twrp>flash supersu again just to make sure the phone has root access>flash a custom rom.zip from your SD card>boot the custom rom, if everything works, flash xposed CUSTOM BUILD(!) and install the xposed installer.apk
I am not a pro, so wait for someone to confirm what I have written. I suggest you to use erobot as your custom rom because of the user-friendly aroma installer. Erobot is prerooted if you choose custom kernel in aroma installer, so keep in mind not to choose stock kernel.
Hope it helped
SuperSU >> Erobot >> Xposed
Ok got it, its currently 23:36 here in the Philippines guess i'm going to sleep, i'm doin that stuff tomorrow confirmation or not.
I can't really afford to throw this phone and it was a gift. So you guys have no idea how much i appreciate your help. /downslash/ Rosli thanks a bunch guys. goodnight
Hi there.. dont worry about the su not install button.. its common as i've aslo rooted my phone through chainfire an it does show me too. Click on do not install..an yeah you have flashed wrong xposed that bricked your phone.. did you backed up your phone before flashing xposed framework? If so try to restore..if not try to get in downloading mod an flash the official framework through odin.. try visiting sammobile.com there tou will get the official framework.. before flashing read ann the instruction or take a look to video tutorial on youtube about how to unbrick phone.. this might help you all the best

Root, recovery and custom rom setup for Galaxy S5 (SM-G900I)

Hi all,
How are you?
I've been looking at these forums for most of the day, though am still quite confused. If someone could assist to clarify it would be much appreciated (as I would like to avoid to brick my phone).
I'm currently running Stock Android, Marshmallow version 6.0.1 with the 1 November 2016 Security Patch.
The model of my phone SM-G900I (Australian edition).
So I've come across the following links with the instructions on how to root and install recovery, though quite confusing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2699648
Recovery Query?
I understand that you need to download the Samsung Drivers and Odin.
I've downloaded the TWRP files for my phone - twrp-3.0.2-2-klte.img.tar and twrp-3.0.2-2-klte.img.tar.asc
Do I need to use the twrp-3.0.2-2-klte.img.tar.asc file at all?
Root Query
Is the towelroot method of rooting the S5 still relevant. The reason I ask, is that when I had posted an initial question on the XDA assist, I was advised that this may not work.
If the towelroot method is no longer relevant, would the CF-Autoroot method below work?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2696537
If neither of the above methods work I have seen mentions of "flashing root" via TWRP.
Are there any known instructions on how to do that on XDA or any other website?
Or is it just a matter of obtaining the superSU zip file from https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/ and flashing it?
The other information seems straight forward re using the Samsung Tool to backing up the device and the EFS .
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
just flash the .img file in download mode, and dont use the asc file at all. also dont use twrp 3.0.2-2, just use 3.0.2 (not 3.0.2-1 or 3.0.2-2 as they can be pretty buggy). Towelroot has long since become irrelevant back in the 5.0 days unfortunately so all you need to do is find the appropriate supersu.zip file and put it on your phones sd card (either internal or external), boot into recovery an install that zip via TWRP then reboot. Should be good to go. The classic "root via recovery" method

1. Plug in your phone and let the drivers load.
If phone unrecognized then head to Playstore you can find loads of apps for drivers
2.unplug your phone and turn it off
3.Load odin.
Some versions of Odin are outdated. So watch for that.
4.Holding your turned off phone. Hold the volume down power and home buttons. Done correctly it should bring you to a page saying custom Roms can damage your blah blah. Volume up to continue down to reboot. Plug your phone in then Push volume up if you feel ready to Join us Oh Padawan.
Now I am sorry for the lengthy information, most likely you have already gotten to this point, but I just want to make the same page for you and future readers. No point in asking a bunch of potentially irrelevant questions when one explanation is sufficient.
5. Odin should find your phone which will be represented by a lit up colored square on the left side indicating a Com:value# which number is of little consequence just tells you which port it found it at. Do not dwell on this.
6. Using an extraction program such as .7z take your CF auto root .Tar file, not the .Asc, and extract. You should be able to find an file with ap in the extension.
7.Take the path from the URL bar of this window including the name of the ap file and copy it over to Odin. In Odin you will see the place to put it is represented by AP.
8. CLICK START AND WAIT WITH JEOPARDY MUSIC.
9. IT MAY REBOOT A FEW TIMES BUT UNTIL IT SAYS success OR FAIL IN ODIN DO NOT TOUCH.
10. Repeat steps 7-9 for twrp.img
10. Now taking this was a success turn your phone off. Unplug and holding volume UP power and home Gets you into twrp recovery. If all is well you can reboot into system. Ignore the kernel warning.
^^^^^ theres the long explanation LoL ^^^^^^^^ i disagree with step 9, but meh
Hi all,
Thanks for the detailed instructions.
So it appears that you can perform the task in 2 ways, ie
* By initially flashing TWRP first using Odin (whilst phone is in download mode), then running the TWRP and then copying over the supersu file to the sd card, then flashing this.
Or alternatively, following the above steps which first
* roots the phone by using Odin within download mode and the "cf auto root" file. Then once again using odin and flashing the TWRP file via odin.
This is my understanding.
Please let me know if I've misunderstood, otherwise thanks all. I'll be giving it a try soon.
My eventual goal is to install the Resurrection Remix Rom, so fingers crossed.

the cf auto root file usually isnt necessary, nor is flashing supersu really as the newer twrps have the root function built right in. Itll ask you if you want to enable superuser rights the first time you boot into it. Just swipe right and its rooted. Alternatively, flashing supersu from within twrp or the cf auto root also work. CF is the acronym for the dev ChainFire, he is the man (or she, and conversely "the woman" or whatever LOL)!! But the crux of what you need is twrp installed, from there youre usually set. Get rooted, make a nand of your stock setup and flash away. Also, id make sure to download the stock tar.md5 file of your phones firmware in case all goes awry (or to hell in a handbasket or enter clever euphemism for stuff going bad here) so you can flash the stock tarball in Odin if you get stuck in an endless bootloop and your stock restore file doesnt work. Also, when resoring from AOSP to TouchWiz or vice versa, does require a few boxes to be checked for it to work, but it happens all the time. Happy flashing and feel free to ask away if you run into anything man!
Thanks all for clarifying.
I did have some difficulties along the way though I did successfully install twrp.
So I downloaded one of the latest versions of odin on mums computer. Laiche the twrp tar file in the ap section. Loaded it then restarted the device. Ran recovery though it was still the default android recovery ie it appeared as though nothing had changed. I looked at another forum which suggested to turn ooff the auto reboot option in odin and perform a battery pull and then launch directly into twrp. This actually worked after much agony.
I then loaded a superuser zip and flashed it onto the phone.
Rebooted confirmed that the phone was rooted.
I then relaunched the twrp recovery and ran a nand? backup of my device. Then I attempted to install a custom rom ie resurrection remix. Unfortunately it did load though the screen appeared to freeze after boot and was therefore unusable. Thank goodness the restoring of the backup worked.
I'll reattempt the installation of a custom rom very soon. Fingers crossed.
Thanks.

TWRP, Rooting and Custom Rom HELP SM-T510 Tablet Tab A 10.1

Hey guys, this is my first post. I just bought a Samsung SM-T510 and would like to unlock all the features. I'm currently trying to follow multiple guides on how to do so. To my understanding, my best bet is lineageOs 16. I've been following https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-16-0-t3987317 alongside with https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...howto-t3989361 and I'm pretty confused on the method order i need to follow. What I mean is do I install rom first, TWRP, Magisk etc.?
More guides ive been following:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-10-1-t3934805
https://forum.xda-developers.com/app...mless-t3473445
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/i...system-as-root
I see posts saying I need and don't need Multidisabler so I'm confused on what I actually need: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ption-t3963020
Another one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ption-t3919714
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...eries-t3918699
I have so many tabs open currently; I know I'm missing a few important ones.
So given all that info, i think i have all the software to do this between kernels, rom, twrp, odin, magisk, multi disabler? and i think thats all.
My sm-t510 build number is T510XXU2ASK5, looking through the lineage rom guide, I click the link https://samfrew.com/model/SM-T510/ and i see different versions. I'm honestly completely confused about this file and how I'm going to use it. I understand it to be the stock rom? as in factory software? With TWRP too, the numbers don't match my current build number leaving me very confused.
Do I need to downgrade my build number (i don't know if it's even a thing just asking)?
I think i can do everything relatively easy once I have an understanding of what to do first (order of things) and the specific files for the specific steps. When I'm reading these guides, I honestly have no idea which download goes for what. For ex. going back to https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-16-0-t3987317 like what do I need to download, the build number listed in notes regarding kernel or go to the download section right below and use that? Or both and if both, how do I use them separately for there a specific purpose? I cannot find anything that makes me feel comfortable rooting/custom rom on my device. Not comfortable in terms of I don't know what I'm doing exactly. I have put days of reading into this and still, I cannot figure out how to do this. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me. This is stressing me out and I would like to get this done before Monday due to me having some serious surgery. The reason being; I won't be as fresh on everything I've read recently.
I'm sorry if this post is choppy and all over the place. I'm just exhausted and clueless at this point. If I left any info out in order for someone to help me please let me know so I can provide it.
EDIT: The TWRP file ends in build number SK1, the file lineage-16.0-20191019-UNOFFICIAL-T510XXU2ASI4.tar.md5 doesn't match the TWRP file as well as my current build number; which ends in SK5. So nothing is matching the 3 last characters in my build number across all guides besides the samfrew link.
Also, I keep seeing i need a .tar TWRP file for recovery (?) but when I unzip both files are .img (named boot/recovery)
You don’t unzip the .tar files. Keep them as is.

I don't get a .tar file until I unzip the folder; I get a filed with .tar.md5
My recommendation would be to first upgrade to T510XXS2ASK1 of the OEM firmware, since that's the latest version for which Samsung has published kernel source. Use the latest release of Odin and install BL, AP and HOME_CSC. After this, unlock the bootloader and prevent VaultKeeper from relocking it by always enabling Debugger Options while connected to the Internet after a factory wipe.
From there, you could just install TWRP, install the latest MultiDisabler, and live with the Samsung firmware. You could even install Magisk to root. However, I prefer a clean Google OS without all the OEM bloatware, so I'd recommend installing the latest Nexus Stock (which includes TWRP and the custom kernel that disables Knox boot security features). Again, use Odin and install it to AP and do a factory wipe in TWRP because file-based encryption is still unsupported on these custom ROMs.
You could install LineageOS instead, but I haven't yet updated that for T510XXS2ASK1. I've just been busy and Andy hasn't been releasing any new LineageOS 16 GSIs. We're also pretty close to releasing a LineageOS 17 build.

Just rename the file cutting off the .md5.
is it possible to downgrade from sk5 to sk1? you cannot upgrade to a later version, and I know downgrading can have reverse effects on the tablet. I have same tablet I would like to know. if I flash sk1 is there a way to fix it if it bricks?

without reading answers i can say that im with YOU! Im almost 3 days to root my T510! We must RAMDISK YES in Magisk but to do that we need to extract recovery.img (https://www.droidwin.com/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android/) from stock original ROM T510OXM5CUJ1 and Im stucked at the part NORAMDISK trying to patch recovery.img with Magisk Manager (with recovery mode checked) but i only get the "waiting for device in ADB" and I conect disconect USB C and nothing...Still NO RAMDISK...
I used 3 different ROMS but no lucky and tried with firmware CUJ1 but no lucky again. Without "NORAMDISK: YES" no root...stucked. But i saw a T510 with OrangeFOX!

I just finished flashing the latest Nexus ROM and rooted it with Magisk merely by flashing the Magisk zip file. You can flash the Nexus ROM without first flashing anything else but the latest CUL1 (not CUJ1) stock ROM. Nexus includes both TWRP and gapps. The only time you have to patch things to get Magisk installed is when you are trying to root a stock ROM instead of a custom ROM. Custom ROMs always to the patching for you.

Hold Vol Up & Vol Down buttons during restart to enter Download mode
Install TWRP to AP with Odin --> twrp-3.6.0_11-2-T510XXU5CUL1-20220218.tar ---> this put the tablet into emergency mode... had to do again "Hold Vol Up & Vol Down buttons during restart to enter Download mode" and reflash it again. stucked at this point. cant flash TWRP with that! Maybe this TWRP file its for Android 11.2 and im on 11?

You don't need to flash TWRP if you flash https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...k-for-2019-galaxy-tab-a-10-1-sm-t510.4234889/ TWRP is built into this ROM. After installing stock CUL1, did you boot it, connect to wifi, skip the rest of setup and then enable Dev mode before rebooting to download and flashing from Odin?
edit: Don't attempt to download from the regular download link. Use the link under Build archives that says Android File Host and scroll down till you find the CUL1 md5 file.

You must connect wifi and enable Dev mode before flashing. If, after flashing CUL1, you went through the regular setup routine and put in a Google Account, you must also enable OEM in Dev options.

USB cables are notorious for being flaky. Sometimes it helps to just turn the cable over and plug it back in. I always keep several on hand so that if I have connection problems I can try another cable.
