THIS RECOVERY WILL TRIP YOUR KNOX COUNTER ..AND UR WARRANTY WILL BE VOID
THIS RECOVERY IS ONLY FOR THE S5 MINI(G800H) [QCOM MSM8228]
PLEASE BE CAREFUL ... THIS RECOVERY HASNT BEEN TESTED "FULLY"...ONLY WIPE CACHE AND DALVIK CACHE , INSTALL ZIP IS TESTED
PLEASE BACKUP YOUR DATA AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF THE FIRMWARE BEFORE PROCEEDING..HAPPY FLASHING!
Why twrp ? Why not a pre-rooted firmware which will not void warranty?
Ans : TWRP has many more functionality than stock recovery ! Rooting means to playing around with your device.If some thing goes wrong it you have to flash the whole firmware again instead,backup your ROM through CWM and if something goes wrong restore your backup AS SIMPLE AS THAT !
All you have to do is follow my instructions :
STEP 1 :
-Download and setup ADB drivers for your device
can be found here Drivers !
STEP 2 :
-Download the recovery from ---> Link
-Download odin 3 Link
-Turn of your device and go to odin mode [ Vol down + power + home button (all at the same time) ] release it when you see Galaxy S5 Minilogo
-Press vol up to confirm
STEP 3 :
-Now that you are in odin mode connect your device via usb cable !
-Now open Odin3 3.09 that you have downloaded.
-If there is a pop-up like Installing ADB drivers let it get finished it is usually updates !!!!
-Make sure the COM : xx (xx is usb port number it can be any number so dont worry about it,just verify COM is lit up)
-Select the recovery (Link in STEP 2) ! Now select AP and browse to where you have .tar file and select it
MAKE SURE U UNTICK THE AUTO-REBOOT BUTTON
-Click Start
ONCE IT SAYS PASS ...REMOVE THE BATTERY ...THEN RE-INSERT THE BATTERY AND BOOT INTO RECOVERY USING VOL UP + HOME + POWER BUTTON
HOW TO ROOT THE DEVICE :
-Download SuperSu (obviously the latest one) from here ------> Click here !
-Copy that to internal sd card
-Power off your device and press vol up + power + home button (all at once)
-Select install zip from sdcard --->choose zip from sdcard ---> scroll down and flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.xx.zip
Done ! And you are ready to go

Thanks for the mention, you're most welcome, bro!

Thank you very much. Let me confirm if it is for g800h dual sim phone.

My G800H/DS works fine with both sim cards -- sim manager, sms, calls, everything is ok.

"-Select the recovery (Link in STEP 2) ! Now select AP and browse to where you have .tar file and select it"
In step 3 how to select the recovery file?
I see PDA button. How to select AP. where is it in odin?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it depends on the version of odin your using
if your odin has PDA .. then put the recovery there (v 3.07 and before )
if your odin has AP ... Then put the recovery there (v3.09 onwards of odin)

Thank you very much. Done.
cheers

Thank you! Flashed now and works perfect!

Works fine on my G800H/DS. It wont write to the external SD (64GB eXFat) but otherwise it works like a champ.

hello rutvikrvr,
2 short questions.. is it possible to adjust the time settings for different time zones (eg +1 for europe / vienna) ?
If i make a backup to the internal sd i cannot see any content in the TWRP folder with eg. es file explorer, only when i boot with recovery and use the present file manager.. is it a bug or intention?
Thanks!

In advanced settings you should get an option to change the time zone.... And for the second thing... If es file explorer doesn't support reading .ext4 files .. Then it won't show up

Yes, i found this setting - BUT if I set the time zone to UTC +1 (Berlin, Brussels, Paris) - the correct time zone for vienna too - the time is shown as 8:43 pm - but it is now 7:43 pm - so i think the winter / summertime is not considered?
The second thing.. in the TWRP folder it is a folder called backup and in this also a folder.. if i copy the whole TWRP Folder with the file manager from the recovery to the external sd - i CAN see the whole content from the TWRP folder with ES File Explorer .. on the internal sd not.. Strange

How to ROOT Samsung Galaxy Tab Active 2 T395 - SOLVED !

First up - Let me say that the complete credit to the method goes to two members here as in the thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab/help/galaxy-tab-active-2-forum-question-t3712591
BUT BUT BUT what the two experts have missed out is on explaining a clear step by step guide for a complete noob like me . So this is an attempt to explain every step. My tab had root in less than 10 mins .
why i needed the root ?
16gb is not enough for the tab so i wanted to apps and data to be moved to the sd card .
Here are the steps
On the Pc
1. Download the stock firmware (must be the same as in your tab) from samfirmware or any other source.
2. Extract the firmware and the extract archive called AP... . Once extracted you will have a boot.img file in it.
On the TAB
3. Activate developer options by clicking the software version 5 times.
4. In the developer options check OEM unlock and USB debugging
5. Download Magisk Manager v16 from xda and install on the TAB.
Connect the tab to the pc
6. Copy the boot.img file from pc to the tab.
7. Run Magisk Manager and in settings choose the output format as odin compatible tar,
8. Click the INSTALL button in the MAGISK manager and choose 'patch boot image file'
9. After a few minutes a dark screen will appear will read all ok boot image patched...now copy that patched_boot.img.tar file from the tab to the PC and rename it as boot.img.tar
On the Tab
10. Recheck under developer options if check OEM UNLOCK and USB DEBUGG
11. DELETE the GOOGLE account (crucial)
12. Switch of the tab
13. Go to download mode by holding vol down, menu and power together , once asked press vol up to go to the download mode.
14. Connect tab to PC.
On the PC
15. Download ODIN and once downloaded right click and run as administrator.
16. Choose AP and select the previously patched boot.img.tar file.
17. Click START
On the TAB
18. It will run the download and restart , restart will say "VERIFICATION FAILED and aask to RESET and erase .
19. CLICK RESET
20. wait for reset saying ERASING and let the tab restart.
NOW the next step is the most crucial one and it is where i got stuck as none of the members who have rooted their device mention it. I did all of the above procedures repeatedly and failed to get root until i realized there was one FINAL CRUCIAL STEP before enjoying the root.
LAST STEP
ON THE TAB
After the TAB restarts , fill in the initial details (google , samsung account, wifi etc) and before you do anything else INSTALL THE MAGISK MANAGER V16 app you downloaded from XDA .......thats it ....you have root access now . ENJOY!

How did you install Magisk?
When I open Magisk Manager v5.6.4, I get a "Magisk is not installed" and I only have the settings option.
No "install" options.
I have the same tablet. don't know of any twrp that can work with it, therefore leaving me with Magisk Manager only.
Id' be glad to get some help
Thanks,
SOLVED: You must have a functioning network interface in order for the "install" button to appear and you need internet connection to "install the v16 zip".
Magisk is OpenSource though, right? so probably it can be changed to allow offline installation as well.

Rooteed
Well Crap...I just got my Nice, New, Sparkleing Tab Active2 and cant root it yet. I have the New US version SM-T397U Unlocked model. cant find a Stock firmware on Sammobile as of yet...any ideas?
EDIT: Neeeevermind... I did a lil hacking and cracking (for about 26min, lol) to find the files I needed for the SM-T397U. If anyone is looking for em let me know and I'll shoot em' your way. Guessing I'm the first person to root a T397U, hope more will follow. I havent even had this thing 6 hours yet. Thanks for the write up and all those that contributed to the tools and info!

I followed every steps till the end and everything went smoothly. But once I rebooted the tablet, I got the red label on the top left corner: "custom binary blocked by OEM lock". The tablet won't boot properly anymore "OEM unlock" was enabled in the Developers options, I double checked to be sure before flashing.
Edit:
Actually, the "custom binary blocked by OEM lock" appears as soon as I modify the system partition (I wanted to modify the Generic.kl in the keylayout folder on the system partition). If you do not touch anything, everything is fine.

[X-POST from here ]
Worked perfectly, Thank you very much!
WARNING: THIS WILL WIPE EVERYTHING ON YOUR TABLET.
Backup all of your important files before you flash the patched boot.img using odin.
I tried to backup my app data using samsung switch and it worked, but didn't restore most of my device settings and all of my app data.
(Good thing I kept backups for my important apps that had in app backup functionality - like Nova launcher and Squid)
Keep in mind that you probably won't be able to get OTA updates after you perform these steps, it doesn't matter though since this tablet isn't going to be updated that frequently (The 8.0 update is going to come at the end of 2018, source)

Hello.
I tried this but when i using the magisk manager i have an error meassage and the following log:

Can you help what i did wrong?
Thank you

oem unlock does not appear
SOLUTION FOUND
how do you oem unlock
I have wasted hours on this, waited weeks, tried the date trick with a legit setup, but the oem unlock never appears, running oldest version of firmware 7.1.1 feb 2018, what gives?
Tried reinstalling firmware via odin, successful flash but no factory reset. Suspect this made no difference. Got the security fail on PIT error, needed a new version of odin and selecting individual AP etc. files fixed this.
apparently you need a samsung or google account
So trying a samsung account... no dice
Now trying adding a sim card as well... success
OK after months of waiting and trying things, this just worked!
Update- I lost the date trick, have to wait 7 days after step 7 on auto date, just appears in developer options no need to press manual update.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/guide-how-to-skip-rmm-prenormal-install-t3749468
- try downloading UK rom which was released before december '17 (october)
See if it lets the below process work again?
0/ install sim card (was not even the original carrier one in my case although my phone is not carrier locked)
1/ factory reset
2/ on reboot skip all accounts, do not enter a name do not turn on wifi, accept minimal amounts of things
3/ set date to 1/4/19 - turn off automatic date
4/ turn off automatic software updates
5/ enable developer options and turn off auto update system
6/ turn on wifi (date changes)
6b/ change date back
7/ Install samsung account (I went to samsung cloud) (date not changed but software update now triggered despite not touching manual update)
8/ (for interest look at manually check for software updates - it already says 1/4/19 last checked)
9/ reboot
10/ (date is now changed back to today again without my permission)
11/ (it pops up asking to install an update, despite auto updates turned off. - LATER)
12/ (last checked software date is now today (because I left wifi on I think through a reboot) this is 4/5/19 over 1 month later)
13/ go to developer options for the 27868745# time
OEM UNLOCK APPEARED HOLY ****
It is between Bluetooth HCI snoop log and Running services on the dev page, top of the developer options
Since the RMM prenormal thing triggered I had to do this again, so the above instructions do work.
If you stuff up the date just factory reset and start again. Reflash not required
I used a brand new throwaway samsung account for this but thats possibly up to you.

RMM state prenormal
OK now that I've jumped through hoops, installed TWRP
I go to reboot and it's locked recovery again - repeat above OEM unlock reappearing act steps fixes RMM=prenormal. Now it's official again.
Apparently you need to install an RMM patch as well which is not mentioned in this thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75360965&postcount=22
So, odin -> ap -> TWRP download
quickly press power-up-home when it resets!!!
recovery is not seandroid enforcing appears and TWRP starts.
1. back up all partitions to microsd!
2. install
a TWRP -> magisk
b TWRP -> RMM disabler - this writes to /system defeating the purpose of magisk???
wipe cache/dalvik reboot
on boot:
"Verification failed"
"Unable to restart your device the integrity verification has failed.... erase all your data"
Well recovery boots this time not an RMM error thats nice... oh it runs a few commands and automatically restarts again.
"Verification failed..."
I guess that is a boot loop then, thanks TWRP for not stopping at a menu ffs.
Reflash TWRP with odin, now it halts at TWRP menu.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...t/how-to-recover-verification-failed-t3775722
Apparently I should put in download mode and cancel - Result = fail & TWRP bootloop -> reinstall TWRP
unmountable /data partition - yep thats me - could try format to exfat - ext4 - Result = Verification failed ffs
---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------
Take 3
"Looks like you didnt flash encryption breaker." no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip or no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 zip well duh of course but which one for t395
https://www.androidinfotech.com/no-verity-opt-encrypt-versions/
seems a few up to 6.0
BTW if you don't press reset and instead try and reboot into recovery you don't have to reflash TWRP
Verification FAIL.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/how-to/guide-how-to-root-device-encryption-t3742493
Take 4 - try reinstating boot.img with no mods.
Try flashing stock AP -> twrp -> DMM fix -> magisk in quick succession & booting tablet
Verification Failed! Reset
Goes to recovery - less errors on TWRP (no mount errors like before) but verification failed again.
Because TWRP is installed I don't get the erasing screen as described by OP....? TWRP does something very quickly I think it says formatting cache, it is doing a standard factory reset. Trying manual factory reset with TWRP does not work.
So I think I need TWRP to prevent DMM tripping and install magisk but I need stock recovery to avoid the verification failing constantly.
Or a new version of TWRP that supports encryption? 3230+ I have 3230...?
Try Stock RO system - twrp - dm verity - magisk
Verification failed. Reset - no dmm error thats nice. TWRP did some extra stuff.
Verification failed again.
#&%^&^#%$#[email protected]#%[email protected]#%#$%
Option 556
Install dmverity patch using stock recovery.
Gives error can't find /misc partition - pretty sure these are TWRP zips only.
Magisk website says install TWRP so I can't see how to avoid TWRP and this annoying verification fail. Maybe try an older version of magisk???
Verification bootloop FIX:?
I tried booting stock, it says something like data corrupt on start, looks the same as the verification failed but with the different message. I let it erase/factory reset with stock recovery.
DMM preload did not trigger on this!
As soon as it succeeded I installed TWRP in case DMM triggers.
Now with fixed data partition (presumably) retry TWRP
1. no verity patch (6.0)
2. magisk
cannot install DMM as it alters system partition...?
No cache wipe.
Lets see what happens...... Black screen but this time
'encryption failed' reset. Press reset.... TWRP does a factory reset
'encryption failed'
LOL now I have an encryption failed bootloop.
Reinstall stock and use stock factory reset again - boot to recovery straight away, wipe data & cache
Now install TWRP (not booted once yet)
Install verity patch 6.0
install magisk 19.1
Boot system for the first time. - got a bootloop? no just taking it's sweet time. Fingers crossed!
Android is starting... WELCOME
HOLY **** IT WORKED
DMM patch not installed and it hasn't tripped DMM yet (the old 7 day wait issue)
SUMMARY:
1/ ensure DMM is official and not preload, OEM unlocked etc with above post steps
2/ flash stock AP - do NOT boot system yet
3/ stock recovery - wipe data and cache
4/ download odin mode - install twrp-3.2.3.0-gtactive2lte-7.1.2.tar
5/ twrp - install no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip
6/ twrp - install magisk 19.1
7/ Boot system for the first time
So I have not installed RMM patch (system untouched) but I did install the no encryption/dm verity patch.
It actually boots now.... will update if further problems
Interestingly OEM unlock has disappeared, so RMM must be prenormal so it will probably die on reboot. Argh. But everything is restoring OK for now. See what happens...
Magisk app auto installed and passes safetynet. Preserve force enctyption and AVB 2.0/dm-verity unchecked.
Annoyingly despite backing up all my messages to samsung they are not restoring past 20 april. Not the end of the world.
Skype keeps stopping.
Reboot and YES only officially released binaries are allowed to be flashed boot loop.
So lets do this again!
SUMMARY:
1/ ensure DMM is official and not preload, OEM unlocked etc with above post steps
8skip 2/ flash stock AP - do NOT boot system yet
8skip 3/ stock recovery - wipe data and cache
4/ download odin mode - install twrp-3.2.3.0-gtactive2lte-7.1.2.tar
5/ twrp - install no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip
6/ twrp - install magisk 19.1
7/ Boot system for the second time
Pretty sure I already tried this so it won't work. &^%#@&^$#$#%#$%@##%@
Oh great it has managed to install the update and now the date fix doesn't work. &^#%&^#$#@$%@#$
After waiting 7 days
1/ Use stock recovery factory reset, then immediately hold down-home-power download mode
2/ Odin TWRP, then immediately hold up-home-power to enter TWRP
2a/ TWRP swipe to allow modifications (for RMM patch)
3/ TWRP install RMM patch
4/ TWRP install no verity patch
5/ TWRP install latest Magisk
NB Magisk seems to install itself as an app - its just there.
...Safetynet pass despite RMM editing /system phew

Hello,
With the last version of Magisk, we no longer have the setting to choose the output format as odin compatible tar.
How can we deal with this, please ?

You don't have to choose any file type. Magisk scans files automatically.
Also, if your file type is ".lz4", you have to change it to ".img". Unless, you can't continue.
@Drnms thanks for this thread. But, some places have to be updated because of new Magisk versions.

Did App data remain after rooting

3. Activate developer options by clicking the software version 5 times.
4. In the developer options check OEM unlock and USB debugging
5. Download Magisk Manager v16 from xda and install on the TAB.
Connect the tab to the pc
6. Copy the boot.img file from pc to the tab.
7. Run Magisk Manager and in settings choose the output format as odin compatible tar,
8. Click the INSTALL button in the MAGISK manager and choose 'patch boot image file'
9. After a few minutes a dark screen will appear will read all ok boot image patched...now copy that patched_boot.img.tar file from the tab to the PC and rename it as boot.img.tar
On the Tab
10. Recheck under developer options if check OEM UNLOCK and USB DEBUGG
11. DELETE the GOOGLE account (crucial)
12. Switch of the tab
13. Go to download mode by holding vol down, menu and power together , once asked press vol up to go to the download mode.
14. Connect tab to PC.
On the PC
15. Download ODIN and once downloaded right click and run as administrator.
16. Choose AP and select the previously patched boot.img.tar file.
17. Click START
On the TAB
18. It will run the download and restart , restart will say "VERIFICATION FAILED and aask to RESET and erase .
19. CLICK RESET
20. wait for reset saying ERASING and let the tab restart.
NOW the next step is the most crucial one and it is where i got stuck as none of the members who have rooted their device mention it. I did all of the above procedures repeatedly and failed to get root until i realized there was one FINAL CRUCIAL STEP before enjoying the root.
LAST STEP
ON THE TAB
After the TAB restarts , fill in the initial details (google , samsung account, wifi etc) and before you do anything else INSTALL THE MAGISK MANAGER V16 app you downloaded from XDA .......thats it ....you have root access now . ENJOY!

Hi Dmms,
Please confirm if the data remained (i.e. was not erased) after the rooting?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, in case it is still relevant:
- Tab does a factory reset when booting first time after the boot img is flashed, data on the device is lost. Data on the SD card is not affected
- In my case, flashing boot.img with Odin didn't work. Odin said success, but no root. Heimdall worked fine, tab was rooted at first attempt

Does this guide also work for Android 9 ?
Edit: So it works with Android 9 also but I had to unpack the boot.img with 7zip ZS according to this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-a40-how-to-root.3929496/post-79902328
and re-pack it with normal 7zip according to these steps:
Do you have the boot.img.lz4 file to boot.img unpacked?
You have renamed the magisk_patched.img to boot.img?
You used the normal 7zip to package into a .tar file? Not the 7zZs?
You used the normal Odin 3.14?

Hello, did you manage to remove the "format as internal" lock?

Hi guys,
Trying to root this tablet, when I load the patched magisk file in Odin and perform the download. The tablet restarts and loads like normal but the tablet isn't rooted.
Any ideas?

[Guide] Root Note 9 (Exynos) Android 10 (Q) With/Out Custom Recovery

How to Root Note 9 with Magisk on Android 10 (Q) without Custom Recovery (Eg.. TWRP)​
This method will work with most of the latest Samsung devices running Android 9/10. (Tested and Working on Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) with Android 10 Q).
WARNINGS: I am not responsible for any damage made. Your device warranty will be void. Do it at your own risk.
Warning: Before Installing Magisk
Installing Magisk WILL trip KNOX
Installing Magisk for the first time REQUIRES a full data wipe. Backup before continue.
You have to have your bootloader unlocked before following the instructions
REQUIREMENTS: (Basic knowledge about android rooting.)
Stock Firmware
Odin v3.14.1
Magisk Manager (You can find in Downloads section of Magisk Thread, I used Magisk Manager v7.5.1)
STEP 1 Unlocking Bootloader (This may need to Wipe your Data/Factory Reset.)
Enable Developer Mode on the Galaxy Note 9
To Enable Developer Mode Open Settings option.
Under Settings option, select About phone, then choose Software Information.
Scroll down the screen and tap Build number several times until you see a message that says "Developer mode has been enabled".
Tap on the Back button and you will see the Developer options menu under Settings, and select Developer options.
Toggle the OEM Unlock option on
Then tap on the Turn On button
STEP 2 Patching and Flashing (This may need to Wipe your Data/Factory Reset.)
Download the firmware for your device.
Unzip the firmware and copy the AP tar file to your device. It is normally named as AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5
Install the latest Magisk Manager
In Magisk Manager: Tap Install → Install → Select and Patch a File and select the AP tar file.
Magisk Manager will patch the whole firmware file and store the output to [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.tar
Copy the patched file to your PC with adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.tar. Do not use MTP as it is reported to corrupt files. (I have copied with MTP)
Reboot to download mode, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in Odin, together with the BL, CP and HOME_CSC files (I have used CSC instead of HOME_CSC). (Never flash only an AP file, as Odin can shrink your /data file-system if you do). Important: Uncheck “Auto Reboot” in Odin Options!
Magisk is now successfully flashed to your device! But there are still several steps before you can properly use the device.
STEP 3 Wipe data/factory reset (This may need to Wipe your Data/Factory Reset. : D)
We now want to boot into the stock recovery to factory reset our device. Full data wipe is mandatory! Do not skip this step.
Press Power + Volume Down to exit download mode. As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press the combo key to boot to recovery (e.g. on the Note 9 it is Power + Bixby + Volume Up). Since we want to boot into stock recovery, continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen. (I had to release power button when Note 9 logo appeared).
Use volume buttons to navigate through the stock recovery menu, and the power button to select an option. Choose Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
This time, we can finally boot to the system with Magisk. Select Reboot system now, and immediately press the combo key to recovery. After seeing the bootloader warning screen, release all buttons so it can boot to the system. (Just select Select Reboot system now)
The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots. This is completely normal and done by design.
After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. The following steps will need an internet connection.
You shall see Magisk Manager in your app drawer; if not, manually install the Magisk Manager APK and continue to the next step. The app would be a stub and it shall automatically upgrade to the full Magisk Manager when you open it.
Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
Voila! Enjoy Magisk

Please edit title to say this is Exynos only

Currently I am not using this System-as-root method to root my device because working version of Dm-Verity & ForceEncrypt Disabler is released so I am using TWRP method to root my device so I can't test secure folder on this rooting method. Now my device is rooted with Magisk via TWRP and secure folder is working without any issue so I think it will work with this method too.

Zer0De8th work perfect root with: twrp-3.3.1-r3.7-q-crownlte.tar, Magisk-v20.3(20300).zip and Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.02.2020.zip
Thx very much man!!!

Hello
Thanks to the authors of this tutorial, and others on XDA, I completed a detailed procedure to Root the Galaxy Note 9 SM-N960F under Android 10 with the Recovery Custom TWRP which allows the backup and restoration of all partitions.
This procedure may seem long because it is very detailed because there are very important points not to miss so that the partitions are not locked by Android 10.
I hope the French / English translation is good because I am very bad in English
cordially

Here is the new location for CSC feature.xml "/odm/etc/omc/XXX- your country code/conf/cscfeature.xml".
You have to Decode / Encode CSC files use OmcTextDecoder .
Many of the old CSC features don't work on Samsung Android Q

Thanks,
Any idea how to set Magisk Manager.
New version 7.5.2 no option to hide selected application..
cant use certain apps like shopee pay and ewallet on rooted device.
Previous version 7.5.1 no problem.

Any magisk module that can make sd card as adopted storage on Android 10?

Did google remove the option of adopted storage? I don't see it on my SM-T295. I rooted it so I was wondering if there is a Magisk Module that can make sd card act like adopted storage.
Thank you.

Can you tell how did you root your tab please.

I have tried many methods dude
Before Installing Magisk​
Installing Magisk WILL trip KNOX
Installing Magisk for the first time REQUIRES a full data wipe (this is NOT counting the data wipe when unlocking bootloader). Backup your data before continue.
Download Odin (only runs on Windows) that supports your device.
Unlocking Bootloader​Unlocking the bootloader on modern Samsung devices have some caveats. The newly introduced VaultKeeper service will make the bootloader reject any unofficial partitions in some circumstances.
Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
Reboot to download mode: power off your device and press the download mode key combo for your device
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.
Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again in later steps. Connect the device to Internet during the setup.
Enable developer options, and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and is grayed out. This means the VaultKeeper service has unleashed the bootloader.
Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode
Instructions​
Use either samfirm.js, Frija, or Samloader to download the latest firmware zip of your device directly from Samsung servers.
Unzip the firmware and copy the AP tar file to your device. It is normally named as AP_[device_model_sw_ver].tar.md5
Press the Install button in the Magisk card
If your device does NOT have boot ramdisk, check the “Recovery Mode” option
Choose “Select and Patch a File” in method, and select the AP tar file
Start the installation, and copy the patched tar file to your PC using ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_[random_strings].tar
DO NOT USE MTP as it is known to corrupt large files.
Reboot to download mode. Open Odin on your PC, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP, together with BL, CP, and CSC (NOT HOME_CSC because we want to wipe data) from the original firmware.
Your device should reboot automatically once Odin finished flashing. Agree to do a factory reset if asked.
If your device does NOT have boot ramdisk, reboot to recovery now to enable Magisk (reason stated in Magisk in Recovery).
Install the Magisk app you’ve already downloaded and launch the app. It should show a dialog asking for additional setup.
Let the app do its job and automatically reboot the device. Voila!
I have tried this one
I have tried flashing unofficial twrp
unofficial twrp 3.4.0 Root Samsung SM-T295 - unofficial twrp
download twrp 3.4.0 root Samsung SM-T295, user who own Samsung SM-T295 can root it by following the below instructions

Can you help me please ?
