Tab 4 LTE SM-T535 recognized as matissewifi - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

SOLVED: TWRP 3.0.3 uploaded by sub77 on androidfilehost doesn't properly recognize devices. I flashed the older 3.0.2-8 and it works fine and let me able to flash matisselte rom. Anyway, I flashed crdroid but It's stuck on boot animation.
Hello everybody,
I recently bought a secondhand Galaxy Tab 4 SM-T535. It has the android stock rom 5.2 and I wanted to flash a CM or any custom rom to speed it up a bit and remove all pre-installed apps. I did flash TWRP through Odin and it works fine, then I copied Gapps for 7.1 pico versión and crDroid custom rom based on LineageOS 14.1 and nougat 7.1 for matisselte aka Tab 4 SM-T535. I followed instructions (that are pretty the same for every custom rom) so I wiped dalvik, cache, system and data, then I flashed (tried to) crDroid 14.1 zip and... TWRP says something like: unable to flash zip, it is for device matisselte but this is matissewifi. Wtf?! So, ok. I thought I'm blind and I got the wrong version, I downloaded the matissewifi version, tried to flash again and it did flash. Then I flashed Gapps and rebooted, now it goes directly in download mode and says Could not boot normally... What is happening? I also tried CM 14.1 for matissewifi, it flashes but can't boot and I'm unable to flash the matisselte version. Why?
it is for sure the LTE tablet, I read it in settings and info in the android stock rom and it has a sim slot, so it can't be the wifi one.
Thank you in advance for any reply. Let me know if you need more informations. Thanks.
P. S. I already searched in the forum and didn't find any similar case.

Hi,
has anybody found a solution...?
seen too late.....

So glad you posted this because I had failed in all my attempts and had tried a few TWRP versions but not that one, which worked perfectly with Lineage 14.1.

[Q] No Recovery after CM upgrade

Hello,
hopefully someone could help me solve my issue.
i've installed the latest nightly of cm 12.1 today overwriting my previous installation of cm11 with a build from january.
the recovery i used so far was twrp.
after upgrading cm to 12.1 i can no longer access the recovery. the phone shows a black screen and reboots when i press the power button.
i've tried reflashing current and older (2.7) versions of twrp with odin but with no success.

You should have flashed official lollipop first, to get the latest bootloader. And you should begin there. And then flash twrp for your rom and cm12.1 using twrp.
Use a cm12.1 rom from development forums instead. E.g temaseks.
so just to make it clear for the dummy kind of user which i seem to be the necessary steps are:
1. getting a stock lp rom and flash this
2. flashing a custom recovery
3. flashing custom rom (e.g. temaseks or standard cm12.1)
Does the Phone have to be rooted for these steps? It looks like it has lost its root status with the update to 12.1 or when i tried to re-flash the broken recovery partition.
thanks for your patience.

Can't install TWRP higher than 3.0.2.0 & Update to Nougat

Hello, i was using Skydragon 5.1.1 and it started to become slow, got optimizing apps everytime i restarted the phone, and wanted to flash to LineageOS
Figured I`d update TWRP to latest version, so I got that from their site, version 3.1.1-0 and when I wanted to boot to recovery it would become stuck at the bootscreen. Same thing with any other version over 3.0.2-0.
Used FirstAid to revert to older version of TWRP, and managed to install 3.0.2-0 again and boot to recovery normally.
With this version it seems i cannot install LineageOS because it gives an error.
How do I go about installing Nougat ? Thanks !
First u should install the 3.6.0 Firmware then try install Nougat

HELP No recovery, usb not recognized

Its a shame.
7 years unlocking bootloaders, installing CWM or TWRP or Philz recovery, flashing rom after rom, not even one device bricked, and today, i messed up, i hope its not bad.
So the short version of what i did is that i flashed twrp.img trough and older version of twrp and now it wont boot into twrp, it says that it failed to verify the recovery image or something like that, and my laptop wont recognize the cellphone, the cellphone boots into the latest Havoc rom but without Gapps and without root because i did not install it beforehand, when in bootloader mode it just says that it could not recognize the device.
The long version is that i had Resurrection Remix, obviously an unlock bootloader, magisk etc... everything was fine until today that i tried to install Havoc, the installation went well but i found out that ambient display was not working, someone told me that the previous version of Havoc did not had that problem so i tried to flash it but it bootlooped for like 1hr, so i read that the version of TWRP provided by the OP was the way to get it to work, i downloaded the .img file and flashed it trough TWRP and tried to install Havoc again but i was stuck in a bootloop, so i flashed the latest Havoc build so i could download the latest version of twrp, i did not flash Gapps or Magisk because i was going to re flash the rom and then flash Gapps and magisk, so i downloaded TWRP and flashed trough TWRP and thats when the sh$& hit the fan, now it wont boot into TRWP and my laptop wont recognize the device, neither on android nor in bootloader mode.
So, thank you guys in advance for your help, tomorrow im going to try on a computer at my work and see if its my computer and if not, well, ill have to se what you geniuses come up with. thank you so much again.
Info:
Rom build number: opm6.171017.030.h1 or 20180811 android 8.1.0
TWRP: i started with 3.2.2-0 then i downgraded to 3.2.1-0 and the one that messed up everything was 3.2.3-0
By the way, I have a full twrp backup of when my phone was stock, (but no way to use it) T_T

Error while installing gapps for 8.1 oreo based custom rom on Potter

so i was on oreo 8.1 soak test version and wanted to upgrade to a 64 bit custom rom based on oreo. unlocked the bootloader. flashed TWRP (3.2.3-1) . Then i flashed franken rom based on 8.1 and opengapps arm64 mini for 8.1.x. everything was right until i figured out that there was no fingerprint functionality. i followed this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/help/fingerprint-enrollment-custom-rom-t3804908 and first flashed the persist fix zip and then the stock 7.0 rom. everything worked fine and i was on stock 7.0 and then i tried to again flash the franken rom but this time the rom was flashed successfully but during gapps installation i got ERROR code 20 and it said something like "incompatible rom found". it was detecting the the rom as 7.1.2. but neither the stock was 7.1.2 nor the franken one and i had also wiped dalvik, data, system and cache before flashing the franken. i tried again and again but failed. what may be the problem here?
sorry for the story like description

N9005 problem installing twrp

I have an N9005 device, it comes with default stock rom (5.0 lollipop), the problem is I tried to install the last TWRP version but it doesn't boot into twrp, I can only install old twrp version 2.8.7.0, and I cannot manage to get it to boot into last twrp version, as I want to install an android 12 rom and can't do it unless I have latest twrp version.
What could i do to install an android 12 rom coming from stock rom?

There's no message or screen, if i flash twrp 3.7 using Odín or adb it directly boots normal when i try to boot into recovery, but if I flash old twrp versión (2.7) it works fine
You don't need to install version 3.7 right away. Do a trial with twrp-3.5.0_9-0-hlte.img first, but flash it directly from TWRP, not through Odin. Use the IMG option to flash the recovery partition.
