All,

I wanted to share with everyone that the TWRP recovery that was made for the wifi note pro SM-P900 "Exynos only" works on the Tab Pro 12.2.

Original thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2706982


I downloaded the tar file and flashed with Odin 3.07

Here is a picture.

Very nice! So it works just fine? It makes sense just cause its the same everything inside. Did you use cf auto root to root? I'm going to be getting my 12.2 in about a week!

This is my first go around with a Samsung tablet, does Odin take care of unlocking the bootloader as well? Or can I just use Towelroot to root and then run the unlock commands and flash this via adb?

These don't have locked bootloader's like HTC products. Just do the autoroot and your pretty much done. Just update super su and flash away

I flashed twrp 2.7.1.0 using ODIN to my SM-T900. I am making my first backup as I speak(write).
Many thanks

My pro should arrive in the mail tomorrow. So forgive me if this has been asked, but I thought these tabs were locked down by knox? Can knox coexist with root and custom boot?

Knox and root can coexist but the super su will and you if you would like it disabled, click yes and your done.

Its just a locked down program/area within the software.

It may install but is it actually working correctly? In that original thread, they are having many issues with TWRP and cache mounting and partitions. I don't want to do this on my Tab Pro 12.2 and be stuck in boot loops and having to find and reflash this, that and the other.

I had some Problems when attempting to wipe data within twrp. had a bunch of cache errors and couldn't get it to boot. Had to release p900 and wipe data in Stock recovery. Didn't go back for 2nds after that

Always worked fine for me. Only thing I noticed was it took a long time. the other thing. Don't do the advanced wipe, it's not needed.
