Please help.
I'm stuck on boot loop in recovery, nothing it's working, everything I do(charge, reboot system) the tablet it's entering recovery mode. How can I put the stock recovery or anything else? Thankyou

Edit: dw stock recovey from here and flash again with odin, now it's booting

There is a bug: after flash super su, install back stock recovery and it's ok :)

Edit: Samsung GALAXY Tab3 Lite 7.0 3G SM-T111 Stock firmware for Romania

Switch of device
Press power +volume up +home
Once you see Samsung text logo on screen release power and keep holding other 2 button.
It will boot to recovery.
For download mode same way but use volume down in place of volume up.

Note: don't reboot to recovery mode , if you want to recovery mode just turn off and use power + vol up + home

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to root my T111 just updated with the latest official Samsung firmware (Sept 2014), now I correctly flashed recovery through Odin, but when I enter CWM and select supersu.zip to install it, it returns signature error...

Could it be related to the latest official rom?
Do I need a different supersu package (I downloaded the latest)?
I tried do download it few times, thinking about a corrupted zip, but it's intact...

Thanks in advance.


Danilo

EDIT: I follow xda since 2008, first post 6 years later... :p

Your recovery seems stock only.

Sent from my SM-N900 using xda premium

Really?!

Odin said it worked...

By the way, I try again, should TWRP.2.7.0.1 and the latest Supersu work?

Thanks again.

P.S.: ketan, are you working on a new rom on this device? I'd like to have a clean naked one... :)

Use twrp one I have said in op.
I am busy with other development and no any plan to update rom for this device. One is based on previous version is there on Dev section. Basically this is not my primary device but only gaming device for my little kid. If I make any new version then will post in dev section.

I know who you are ketan, already seen that thread, and that is not your primary device (actually is not my primary too). ;)

Thanks for your help, I did something wrong while rooting, I did it again and worked fine...

Thanks again.

All the best. :good:

    Your recovery is not updated and still stock.
    Open odin and uncheck Auto reboot. Flash recovery again and when flash Complete, manually reboot device to recovery and you will have custom recovery

    I cant quite remember exactly now but
    pretty sure I got my stock rom from - http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
    booted phone into recovery then flashed the stock rom with odin

    It looked slightly different that my original rom but worked fine
