Not surprised and didn't expect it to work. There is also no OEM Unlock under Developer Options. I presume the bootloader is locked but haven't verified.
SM-T827V (Verizon LTE) Tab S3 not rootable with current methods
- Thread starter snovvman
- Start date
same as me
mine is T827 AS well , I can not flash it with any ROM except the original from the carrier
Yeah, have the US Cellular version sm-t827r4 with the exact same issue. Have had it since launch and have been hoping they'd enable the unlocker by now. Good luck!:laugh:
I don't think anyone's even working on it. I have one too, and would love to see root, but I'm not a developer-wouldn't even know where to start. I also have a VZW Note 8 which has been rooted by the same methods that worked on the VZW S8. I believe that a variant on that method could work for our Tab S3s as well, but again, no clue how to begin.
well, i just picked up atab s3 from vzw so ill b looking into it
Hey, even if it doesn't make it, isn't it great to have a powerful tab that can do HDR video and also has 4G?
just need a combo firm.. the one on gsm firmware sayin cant find it when i try to buy it
Well some progress today... I got the OEM lock switch flipped so both the prop values are set to 1:
[ro.oem_unlock_supported]: [1]
[sys.oem_unlock_allowed]: [1]
Somehow I also managed these to get set:
[ro.boot.verifiedbootstate]: [orange]
[ro.boot.flash.locked]: [0]
I am still trying to figure this one out:
[ro.boot.other.locked]: [1]
If someone who has a T825 or other tablet that is unlocked on stock can pull those prop values for me and let me know if I am on the right track then that would be great... I am still having trouble flashing anything customer in ODIN but with orange boot state I feel soon as we can get the img onto the device it should in theory boot.

Thanks for your efforts, ellwigy. If there's anything a novice can do to help with the process, let us know.
Also (to anyone): I think I can install a custom recovery (i.e., TWRP) even though unrooted so that a backup image of the device can be made? Is there a TWRP and guide for doing so? - Thx for any info!

@elliwigy check this out, amazing stuff. Would never have believed it possible!

I just got my T820 and rooted it. I'll pull those values when I get home.
Also if you want, I'm that guy from the Note 8 root group Ali on Telegram so you can also contact me there if you need anything.

Here you go, my build.prop pulled straight from system.
SM-T820 running stock with Magisk v16 and force encryption disabled.
heck if i can get root i can most likely boot twrp.. my verified boot state is orange which means i should (in theory) be able to boot with modified partitions.. ill try that tomorrow

yes.. it was sent to me.. been goin back n forth with em a while now.. i submitted a report on it.. they have a rewards program.. theres some requirements such as certain devices, cant use leaked firmware etc. (must be legit exploits) which they pay between 200$ to 200k depending on severity and impact etc.
i honestly was going to post it but at the time i seemed to b the only one with a t827v and the only one workin on root so i figured y not try n make some $$ off sammy lol.. plus i got rid of the tab s3..
hadnt heard from em in over amonth so i was gonna say screw it but of course soon as i posted in here they responded lmao
i signed an agreement anyways saying i wont release publicly until its patched..
its a high severity (second from top which is critical) for excessive priveleges..
pretty much pwnd it lol.. during my testing i rooted, semi unlocked bl, changed rev to 0 and downgraded to rev0 all without tripping knox lol
