How did that happen?
Anyway, you probably have to flash stock firmware via ODIN.. Then install TWRP.

Congratulations on the great job.
Congratulations on the great job.
I finally managed to take a breath of my children's tablets.
Regarding the problem of adding the memory card, as internal memory. This error does not occur in version 20200512. With that, just install it. Do the procedure and update to the latest version.
The only thing I did, which is not mandatory to do, was to convert my card to EXT4.
Regarding the camera problem. Just install another camera app.
So far everything working.
But thanks once for the great job.

You need to unlock the boot loader check a guide it will explain it. You might need to start over with a fresh copy of the os
I am getting secure check error: recovery when try to flash TWRP through ODIN. any idea? i went online and did some research, maybe the bootloader is locked. Where do I go get the files to unlock during flash? Thanks.
GO to developer options and enable unlock bootloader and also enable USB debugging

I managed to get into the TWRP 3.4.0.1 but I'm not able to install the rom, I'm getting this:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
[edit] tied to install May and September builds also tried to install by removing the asserts line but I'm still getting the error below:
Error installing Zip file '/external_sd/OS/lineage-14.1-20200903-UNOFFICIAL-gtexswifi.zip'
does anyone knows how to fix this issue?

I figured out, you have to immediately press volume up and center button after the manual reboot from ODIN flash. hope this helps others.
Hi Guys
I have figured out what causes my 'Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock' problem, but I am not sure how to fix it!
As suggested by _mone, I have downloaded and installed the stock Samsung T280 ROM. ODIN loaded it OK, but it then bootlooped with 'Google Services failed to load'. I booted into Android recovery, wiped everything, and it then booted into Android 5.1.1 OK.
I used ODIN to load TWRP, booted into TWRP, installed lineage-14.1-20200908 and Gapps, rebooted into Android 7.1.2 fine. Fiddled around for a bit, and then deliberately rebooted to see if it came up OK. Came up fine.
On the web FRP appears to be associated with your google account, so I now set up my Google account, loaded an app from PlayStore, all OK.
I rebooted and I am now back at the 'Custom binary blocked by FRP Lock'
so now I know what causes it, but how do i cure it?

I got it, also you can uncheck the reboot option in the second tab in Odin, then you dont need to intermediately press the power+vol up, you still need to press that combo in order to boot into TWRP
anyone found how to bypass that error 7 message? I'm very exited to try this on my old tablet, kudos to the devs involved.
I'm subscribing to get latest news updates for this.
I am getting the same Updater process ended with ERROR: 7, when trying to update from May version to the latest version on 0908. I am just going to format and wipe evertthing and do a fresh install of the latest version.
How do we properly update the rom if there is a future update? like a dirty flash. Appreciated.

I've observed that ERROR: 7 appears whenever you do some sort of wiping, however it doesn't appear when you try flashing again after rebooting to recovery. So I suggest trying a process like this: wipe->reboot to recovery->flash rom->reboot
I've found a way to bypass FRP or rather actually disable it, just flash the FRP Destroyer.zip from this thread. I personally used FRP + DM Verity + Force Encrypt Remover.zip and so far it's been fine. It essentially removes the partition FRP uses to store the Google account the device is locked with. I'm not aware of any issues from doing this, so as always, flash at your own risk.

Search twrp error 7 in google
i made it by unzipping the rom, entering the unzipped folder META INF --> com --> google --> android, than opening the updater script file with notepad ++. After opening it I deleted the first line and zip the rom again. Thats it

Hello,
I thanks for your work. I'm verry happy to use this tablet with 4 gb empty space. I dont want to be greedy but can you fix the animation when you're charging your tablet when it is off. it looks upside down. Also can you fix the lockscreen is turning upside dow when you are locking your tablet
thanks

First of all a big, big thanks for this rom ! Great work and exactly the rom that I was waiting for ...
May I ask you a question about MicroG ?
As far as this is not an official LOS build, is it possible to include the 'signature spoofing patch' (https://github.com/microg/android_pa...master/patches) into this rom ?
Or, alternativly, include MicroG 'completly' into the rom ?
The reason why I ask is that I think there are a lot of people around who like to have a Google-free phone (without GAPPS), but like to have messaging and location services that is provided by MicroG. The inclusion of the signature spoofing patch would be an important first step for installing MicroG by ourself ..

What I mean by wiping is by doing any wipe command prior to installing the rom, say wiping the cache. When the error appeared in my device, I just rebooted it to recovery again and tried to install it. It worked that way for me, but if it doesn't work for you, you could instead try @Volkan2008's advice a few posts above me and modify the zip by deleting some lines in the updater script.

twrp does not let me install this because my t280 is a gtexswifixx, what is the difference between that and the gtexswifi?
No difference. It should be the same exact device. Which TWRP are you running? What error do you get?
I get error 7 and a compatibility error. I cannot update my version of twrp (3.0.2-1-ashyx) because after I downloaded and copied the img that you posted to my sd card, it does not appear when I go to the install menu.
That's the problem. You need to run one of my twrp builds. Just download and install the latest TWRP-3.4.0-2 via ODIN or heimdall.
