[ROM] SM-T825 TWEAKED.........................[rom] sm-t825 tweaked.

[Ch3ck3rM0n]

As a work around, go to.... Settings apps... Select the app /game then select storage, here you can choose the data storage location, select change you'll have the option of internal or external. Most games will allow this out of the box. If the option is not available for the specific app, go to developer options, there's a setting to force selectable storage for all apps. Let us know how you go.
Another option you could try is an xposed module, XinternalSD. It has a setting to designate the path to the internal sd, just enter a path to your external sd. /storage/("external sd name ") /

I've not tested that on this rom,

Nice try with the workaround but the most apps and games do not move the data to SD card with this option. The just move a minimum of data but for example "Minecraft Story Mode" it still stays with 4,5 GB on the internal storage.

Difficult to know without using the specific apps myself, thanks.
Have you tried the xposed app, XinternalSD ?

Thank you for making this tweak.
I'm the one who uses S pen a lot of time and needs the quad speaker with its Dolby Atmos sound effect. This one is the best pre-rooted rom for me.

Downgrading to Nougat :-

I just tried flashing nougat ARA2 BL as you mentioned but it failed at Auth and Error on Tab is something like Binary 2> 1 etc i dont remember exactly...

What should i do?
Should i go for U1BRE2(0re0) from U3BSD1(0re0) and then flash U1ARA2(Nougat)?
Because you said BSD1 is backword compatible to BRE2..

In general you're better off with the latest version, the bootloader used with later firmware /roms is not always backwards compatible to all previous firmware /roms, flashing back to BRE2 should work anything earlier may work but can't guarantee it, from memory nougat roms required the older firmware. Some updates have meant you can't flash the earlier bootloaders though, guess Samsung decided they don't want you doing it. At this stage flashing nougat bootloaders should work, I haven't tried it recently.
As for which earlier version you prefer that's up to you, if you've got a particular issue with a later rom, your choice,which to try.

The error you listed sounds like it could be a bad download, try again, perhaps save a log from twrp if it keeps happening, ?

Thanks for your comment, I notice there's an update out from Samsung , I prefer to do the 820 update first as it makes it easier for me to pickup issues, unfortunately it tends to lag behind in release. ?

The good news, from @Stogie87, it looks like am update to android pie (9.0) is on the way, link details on the T820 thread. ?

Cool! Thanks for ur work, ur Rom is the best around. Anyway, I'm happy with the present Rom version too, it works faster than stock, debloating kicks in, more ram available tho. Everything works perfectly without this Samsung crapware flooding the system Samsung will always need guy like u, to wipe all the **** from it, making stock usable

The only device I can use complete stock on is oneplus and pixel, others need treatment.

Good news, cant wait one ui to kick in. Hope it will be up till tab s6 release, otherwise I'll swap. Or MB I'll buy it anyway. Wasn't dat happy about how samsung adopted snap 821, so much lag compared to oneplus 3t, for example... What do you think about s6? Worth it?


BTW, link to to debloat list is dead, can you refresh it? Thanks

The link seems to be working for me.
I thought the the next top tablet was to be a tab s5 without the (E), had you heard tab s6?

Behind the times I see it is the s6, looks good

Hi @rorymc928
I need to change the current CSC from BTU to ITV.

Thank you!

I would think via odin take the csc from a downloaded firmware,get into download mode and only load the csc slot.

Guys... this is killing me.
After I flash twrp 3.1.1-0 or the older ones, it goes into the twrp, but everythings size is 0
0 internal
0 system
0 external

Anyone know a fix for this?!

Can I install Magisk with odin not with Twrp so I can install xposed from there??

thanks.

I have the T825 tablet... I'm just a bit confused: I tried to flash the TWRP and I selected read-only (not allow modifications) but I can't do factory reset or wipe data... so, what is it useful for? I must allow modification and solve dmverify problem to install this rom. Isn't it? If I do this, can I than came back to stock rom to receive future updates?

Then, with the last version of the rom, is the issue with netflix offline download solved?

You need to allow modifications to flash the rom,dm verity, rooting and debloating are all taken care of in the rom installation.

If you were to, return to stock for updates you lose the rom you flashed, if you wanted to do that it is a relatively simple flash of the firmware via odin. But you can of course just flash the updated firmware in odin to begin with. The firmware releases via sammobile.com or Samsung update follow the automatic updates fairly regularly. So it really is a choice, after market rom, or official. If what your asking is can it be returned to stock, most definitely yes. It will show the knox trace of having been altered at some stage, if that effects your warranty, but it will accept online updates from Samsung.
There is a slightly later update available now for the T825 than this rom is based on, generally I wait till the update is available for the T820 so I can easily debug first, as that's what I have, unfortunately it's updates tend to lag by a week or so.
As for Netflix there's a fairly simple fix if you search this thread or the T820 thread for it it'll be easy to find.

@rorymc928
Thanks for the best rom for Tab-s3
I generally flash the custom Roms on a new device in a week of buying..
Only this ROM I have flashed late that is a year after purchase..
May be I was procrastinating
But this ROM is best and I am satisfied
Everything works perfect
Great Work

Sim card not detected, No network menu..

(Edit: please ignore the post, found the culprit mentioned at bottom)
@rorymc928
I used the rom for 2 days without problem..
Everything was fine..
Suddenly after a restart mobile network was gone and I was prompted to insert a sim card..
Sim card is OK, checked with other phone..
I tried with another working sim card..
Still the error remains..
IMEI is intact..
There is no settings menu appearing for Mobile Networks at all
So I flashed INS latest firmware successfully through Odin..
Still no network..
I have tried everything..
Factory reset from settings
Factory reset from recovery..
Nothing works..
What could have gone wrong?
Please Help..
Thanks and regards,
Semantsen
(Edit: After much research I have found that Sim Card fits loose in the slot. I have fixed it by adding packing on back. Please ignore the post. Rom is fantastic)

Just a heads up - you need the very latest version of Odin to flash the latest Bootloader.

Thanks Rorymc!
