What is TWRP?
I quote
TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.
Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.
WHAT IS THE USE OF INSTALLING TWRP?
TWRP is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom "ROM" like OmniROM.
You can find the source code for TWRP at github.com/omnirom/android_bootable_recovery/

I just followed your upgrade instructions and was successfully able to upgrade from TWRP 2.7.x and it works great! Results were instant and I was also able to immediately successfully flash a custom ROM to my SM-T230NU. Thanks so much for posting this!

This is where you lost me.
I have Odin v3.12, and it only has one AP button, but no PDA button.
I clicked on AP button in Odin, and selected the twrp image.tar file. Check.
Then you tell me to click on the AP button again and select the CWM file, but if I do that, then the twrp file is no longer selected.
I'm afraid to guess because even though it's old, I don't want to brick this thing.

To get TWRP on my device, I followed the instructions listed here: tab-4/orig-development/twrp-install-twrp-root-samsung-galaxy-t3111934
(I can't post links. Just put forum.xda-developers in front of that)
Instead of using TWRP 3.0.0 or 2.8, I used this newest verison with Odin 3.09 (instead of 3.12)
And it worked on my T230NU
"SOMEONE ANYONE" ...those mysterious instructions entries...
i probably qualify as an anyone, that is im doing this for the first time, though i have some experience with doing the same thing to my old HP Touchpad (tenderloin) device over and over again over the years, to keep it from throwing up alerts about apps stopping... So yes i was confused by the same glitches in the instructions since i dont want to brick my old tablet and try to follow instructions exactly:
A) in STEP 2:
"Device Added on ODIN"
>> no Odin doesnt actually print those words out, i think the op is sort of restating the sentence above it.
B) in STEP 3:
"Click on the AP button (PDA in many Odin versions) and select the CWM recovery file"
>> I think this is just a copy/paste error the op took from some other post and never cleaned up, presumably CWM refers to ClockWorkMod which is different recovery in itself, and i don't suspect you can have two recoveries installed, no? plus, its not mentioned anywhere else in this thread no link of anything, so i just ignored that line and proceeded according to the rest of the instructions.
C) STEP 4:
"Select the ODIN Options"
>> another instance of repeating whats already been instructed in the sentence above it.
So I just ignored the items noted above, the only other thing i did that is different from this thread is i had previously installed the samsung USB drivers noted as seemingly important in other threads, i dont know if that matters since ive never tried it without them, but anyways, I hit 'start' and it worked fine and said PASS in about 5 seconds, then a bit later rebooted, but took a couple minutes to get out of the Samsung logo boot screen -i almost thought it was bricked for a moment there- but it finally came through and it all seems okay. so now i can reboot into TWRP and see all of its options, so now im ready to give a try to install the Pixelized OS!
For my T230NU, TWRP reboots (crashes) reliably in the middle of the wiping-the-cache process:
The TWRPs i tried are "twrp-3.0.0-0-degas.img.tar", "twrp-3.2.1-0-degas.img.tar" , "twrp-3.3.0-0-degas.img.tar"
I selected the usual four items to wipe: "Dalvic cache", "cache", "system", "Data"
(the built-in one-swipe factory-reset wipe crashes just the same)
I installed them all with Odin 3.12.3
This older version seems just fine: "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-degas.tar"
Will this image work with Verizon Tablet SM-T537V?
Hey, will this work on degaswifi (regular SM-T230)?

Flashed it successfully on my SM-T230NU, however I am also experiencing a crash during a built-in wipe. I reverted back to v3.0.0 and it seems to be working as expected. Thanks,

I have a SM-T230NU (nook). It freezes at boot after the "nook" logo screed is displayed. When I power down it immediately reboots to the same logo screen and again freezes. I can't turn it off without taking the back off and unplugging the battery. When I plug the battery back in after a few minutes, it stays off until I try to boot again and the same cycle repeats itself. Any ideas how to fix this.

Hello everybody,
I just successfully rooted my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi (GT-P7510 model) using stock 4.0.4 ROM, and wanted to put up together all the steps, as they are disseminated through several posts and various broken links in the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development forum.
As I'm not able to write there because of being a noob, I'll post it here, hoping any moderator sees this and moves it to its correct place.
I assume you have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi device (GT-P7510) with stock Android 4.0.4 ROM installed and working.
Step 1: Downloading relevant files:
From this post, get Odin3 v1.85 and CWM Touch Recovery.
Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip file from this post.
Latest version of SuperUser from here. This is needed because SuperUser included in the other zipfile doesn't work well with ICS, as stated in this post.
Step 2: Placing files correctly:
Decompress Odin3 to a folder on your computer.
Copy CWM file (named recovery.tar.md5) to the same folder of Odin3.
Plug the tablet to your computer and copy latest version of SuperUser and file "Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip" to device's root folder.
Step 3: Installing custom recovery:
Put your tablet into download mode:
Power off tablet.
Power on holding Power + Vol Down (left part of volume button) buttons.
When Samsung logo appears, release power button, but continue holding Vol Down button.
When two icons appear, push Vol Up button (right part of volume button).
Connect tablet to computer. Wait until drivers are fully configured.
Open Odin3 v1.85.exe (under WinVista/7 admin rights must be granted).
Under ID:COM label a yellow box with a COMX port number must appear. If you encounter problems see below.
Push PDA button and select previously downloaded recovery.tar.md5 file.
Push Start button. If everything went OK tablet should restart automatically. If you encounter problems see below.
Disconnect tablet from computer.
Step 4: Rooting process:
Put your tablet into recovery mode:
Power off tablet.
Power on holding Power + Vol Down (left part of volume button) buttons.
When Samsung logo appears, release power button, but continue holding Vol Down button.
When two icons appear, push Vol Down to select the leftmost option, and then Vol Up button (right part of volume button).
Right now you can switch options wih VolUP and VolDown buttons and select options with power button.
Navigate through "Install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard".
Select "Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip" file and select "Yes - Install Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip" when prompted.
Once the installation ends, repeat procedure with the latest SuperUser build previously downloaded.
Once the installation ends, select "+++++Go Back+++++" and "reboot system now".
Step 5: Enjoy your rooted device! :victory:
This has been tested only with a Spanish Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi device (GT-P7510) with stock Android 4.0.4 ROM installed.
Problems encountered:
If you have trouble running Odin, follow these steps:
Disconnect tablet from computer.
Uninstall Samsung Kies.
Reboot computer.
Download root.zip file from this post.
Install "GT-p7510_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0-Escape.exe" drivers.
Retry again. Another reboot may be useful.
I want to thank you to all the staff of xda-developers and to all the users whose work I compiled here.
Get in there, root acess is mine! Worked a treat on my GT-P7510 wi-fi only with stock ICS 4.0.4, build number IMM76D.UELPL, just added my tablet details for anybody searching in the future.
Thanks very much, time to play
Ty
TyTyTy.. Just what the doctor ordered. Worked flawlessly. Ty for taking the time to write all that up also.
My root went awry !
Hi
I believe I followed all the directions but something went amiss.
My GT p7510 now will just reboot to find my network and connect, then show the clock and security screen , it will show the current time and accept my security shape --but then the screen stops accepting input. and everything stops.
Seems like running recovery is possible, would a factory reset be advisable?
Thanks
GT p7510 stock ics
Confirmed Root of GT-P7510 with 4.0.4 stock
I just wanted to post a reply to confirm that I was able to use these instructions to perform my first ever root of an android device (GT-P7510 with 4.0.4 android and build number IMM76D-UELPL). Thanks for a great, easy to follow post. :good:
I would also recommend that any users make sure to install the Samsung drivers (GT-p7510_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0-Escape) on their PC before starting the instructions as written, as I have read that these drivers are needed as a prerequisite to rooting in other forums.
woot
Great guide i tried others and all the Dl links were broken yours all worked
THANK YOU!
Worked on my GT P7510 United States. I am a noob, I followed your flawless directions and all is well. Thanks for the easy to read and use tutorial!:good:
I'm a noob from Canada, I signed up on this forum just to thank you for this easy to follow guide!
A friend just gave me his old GT-P7510 (aka p4wifi) and I used this guide to root it because it was very clear and detailed. Went perfectly smoothly.
However, the OP is old and points to an older version of CWM. If you intend to flash CM 10.1, you need a newer version of CWM. Take a look at this thread (if you have the wi-fi version):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2296961
From Post #5 I grabbed the flashable version of CWM Touch 6.0.3.1 (P4wifi) and flashed it, then flashed CM 10.1 (8/4 nightly) and everything went super smooth. You guys rock. :good:
Hi,
Some months later i try tu follow your tutorial. Very clear but... i've 2 problems.
With the CWM that you recommend, the recovery mode is unreadable (rolling) > first problem.
So i follow this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555984 it resolves my display problem, i can access to recovery mode.
I continue with step 4 with Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip installation in recovery mode but now my device doesn't start, it loops...
Initialy it was in 4.0.4... i think i don't understand anything with the different versions of firmwares and others CWM...
Help will be really appreciate...
Many thanks

from stock 4.0.4
install recovery from droidbasement
send over custom rom and gapps
go into recovery and install rom then gapps
reboot and voila
(use odin and stock rom to get back to stock and no more bootloop)
as long as you can get back into recovery/download everything is fixable.
android is like a pc
recovery = bios
custom/stock rom = windows..linux...ect..
wrong root.zip file will give you bootloop your adding wrong files so device can't boot up
hope this helped
btw...you don't need to be rooted to install recovery or custom roms
I'm Rooted!!
Followed instructions to successfully root a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and then installed GSM (cell) call support from AndroidAdvices site.
All went well but I did have to follow the "Problems Encountered' sequence to get Odin3 to run on the Windows desktop.
Really appreciate your help.
Thanks guys.

sent from my still superb Google I/O 7510
Hi! Thanks for your post for the steps of the rooting of Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 . I have just a few quick questions.
is it possible to use your rooting guide to flash the latest version of CWM recovery or should I use the specific one you recommended with the link in the guide? In order words, could I flash CWM 6.0.3.0 ( the latest for galaxy tab 10.1) instead of the one you suggested? Just let me know. If you believe the CWM version you suggested in your guide is safer then I will flash the one you suggested instead. Also is it possible to use adb fastboot to turn the tablet into the desired mode? I really have trouble pressing the buttons to get to the different modes. Thank you very much.
Re My Build #
Hi I just looked at my Build # and it's IMM76D.VLLH3 now my questions are
Will this work with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7510.
Will is change the Build #.
Thank you in advance for reply.

Hello everybody,
I just successfully rooted my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi (GT-P7510 model) using stock 4.0.4 ROM, and wanted to put up together all the steps, as they are disseminated through several posts and various broken links in the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development forum.

These links to superuser (which is necessary, I tried the version from the play store and it didn't work) have changed, they are now found here:

After flashing these (along with the root zip) everything worked properly...
How to root my Tab from Linux?
There's no Odin on Linux so can someone post the steps that are needed using Heimdall-FrontEnd?
This is how I did it using Heimdall

Once I got the phone I didnt find much help on how exactly to root the device and get custom rom loaded on it.
What bits and pieces of information I found was confusing... never the less after some reading I got to understand the basics of what needed to happen.
So here it is:
Files:
Download and Install Samsung Official USB Drivers - link
Download and extract ODIN v3.07 - Link MD5: 0C21E86A38C7868B0B50396EEE85721F
Download and extract this recovery - (Unzip ) - Link MD5: D8C883282D1584A0E067E12CCF8C1750
Download Cyanogen Mod - Link
Download Google Apps - ( for 10.1 stable ) Link

Follow the Steps in this guide:
GUIDE
Steps to Install ClockworkMod Recovery on Galaxy S4 I9505
Step 1: Extract Odin 3.07 file using winrar/7zip/winzip or any other extracting tool.
Step 2: Switch off the Galaxy S4 I9505. Then boot the device into Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down + Home buttons together and then press the Power button until the device turns on. Now press the Volume Up button to enter Download Mode.
Step 3: Launch Odin on the computer.
Step 4: Connect the Galaxy S4 I9505 to the computer using USB cable while it is in the Download Mode. Wait until Odin detects the device. When the device is connected successfully, the ID: COM box will turn blue with the COM port number. Additionally, the successful connected will be indicated by a message saying Added.
Step 5: In Odin, click the PDA button and select the [RECOVERY PROVIDED] file.
Step 6: Verify that Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time checkboxes are selected in Odin. Also, ensure the Re-Partition option in Odin is not selected.
Step 7: Double-check and click Start in Odin. The installation process will now begin.
Step 8: Once the installation process is completed, your phone will restart and soon you will see a PASS message with green background in the left-most box at the very top of the Odin. You can now unplug the USB cable to disconnect your device from computer.

At this point reboot the phone direclty in recovery by holding the VolUp button and pressing Power button until it vibrates.
You should see it power up and blue text appear in upper left corner " Recovery..."
if you don't pull the battery and try again.
You should see the familiar CWM Recovery appear.
Backup your system.
After that is complete Install CM10.1 and Google Apps.
Enjoy.

I take no responsibility for damaged devices. If you are not ready to loose your phone possibly forever keep it stock.
It worked for me.
All systems are operating at this point.
Small glitch with having to restart BT after I walk away from my car and get back in it and trying to reconnect to it.
The IR Sensor doesn't work. I saw that the drivers are being implemented with some of the nighly builds.... so its not far from being operational.

Best.
Thanks for documenting your steps! I was running CM10 on my Epic 4G just before I switched over to the GS4 Developer Edition phone. I'm thinking of flashing it again.

Hey guys,
I am rocking the DNA but while working on my car yesterday, I shattered the front of my phone to the point where there are so many cracks that I can't see anything. So I am looking around for other options and one that I am considering is the Galaxy S4 Developer Edition for Verizon Wireless. I want a phone (on VZW) that I can unlock, root and run CM10.1/10.2 or AOSPA on and the normal S4 isn't quite there yet. So I had a couple of questions to people who have the Dev Edition,
1) I found a thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339849) that details how to root/unlock the developer edition, is that method still valid to follow?
2) What is the process to flash a non-TW ROM on the dev edition like CM10.1 or something? For anyone who's running CM/AOSPA on an S4 dev edition, how well does it work?
3) This would be my first Samsung smartphone and I see a lot of Samsung specific lingo that I don't quite understand, is there a central place that I can find that information other than El Goog?
Thanks,
Developers Edition I though came unlocked...its base Jelly Bean Android..no TouchWiz UI.

I am pretty sure that the dev editions come with touchwiz and just as much bloat. I think you might be thinking of the GPE maybe? I might be wrong, don't have near enough money to get it so I wouldn't know for a while.

as for cm/aosp roms, i can't help you there since i stick with the tw-based roms like hyperdrive, which is my dd. here is the cm thread for the s4 though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2305263
i am not a developer, and i know just enough about computers to be dangerous to myself. however, i have learned a lot just be reading different threads, and anything i didn't understand or couldn't figure out i just googled it.

I am a Dev S4 owner and I can tell you that the root and ROM methods are extremely easy. The only thing is that we do not have any factory images to fall back to (as a safety net in case you screw something up) - but once you become versed and more advanced, check out this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483619) which is a compilation of stock images for the various partitions of the Dev S4 on I545OYUAMDK (boot, recovery, system, etc - you will need Heimdall to flash these). So first thing of order once a custom recovery is installed is to do a full Nandroid Backup. That will serve as your safety net.
The phone comes bootloader unlocked. First thing would be download the latest samsung USB drivers (http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I545ZKAVZW - then scroll down and choose the downloads tab. download the EXE and install). In order to root the phone, the easiest way would be to reboot the phone into download mode (volume down+power, you will see a warning, press volume up to enter download mode). Once in download mode connect the phone to your PC. Download Odin 3.07 or Odin 3.09 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189539) along with either Philz Touch Recovery IMG (http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=18376#files - you want the latest jfltevzw.tar.md5 file, 5.18.2 (http://d-h.st/HZD)) for a clockworkmod based recovery or TeamWin's TWRP recovery (http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/181 - done through Goo Manager on the app store). Once Odin is loaded and your phone is recognized (you will see it listed on a comm port under the text that says "ID:COM", make sure ONLY "Auto Reboot and "F. Reset Time" are checked....everything else must be unchecked! Very important (double check and recheck, especially that Re-Partition is UNchecked)! Load your recovery tar.md5 file into the PDA slot on the right (actually middle of the window). Once loaded and your phone is recognized and you have made sure the two boxes are the only ones checked, hit the Start button.
If all goes well, your phone will reboot and you will see the word "pass" in green in the upper left above the ID:COM field. Test your custom recovery by booting into it. To enter recovery power of your phone. Then hold down "Volume Up" + The Home Button and the Power button all at once. Once you feel the phone vibrate, let go of the Power button but keep the Volume up and home button pressed, you will see small blue text in the upper left corner of the phone and you will soon be in recovery. Once in recovery make a nandroid backup, preferably your external sdcard. Once done, reboot the phone to TouchWiz.
In the meantime, download the latest SuperSu package (http://download.chainfire.eu/351/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip?retrieve_file=1) and put it on your External SD Card. Once done, power off your phone. Again, to enter recovery hold down "Volume Up + The Home Button and the Power button. Once you feel the phone vibrate, let go of the Power button but keep the Volume up and home button pressed, you will see small blue text in the upper left corner of the phone and you will soon be in recovery. Once in recovery choose "Install Zip" and select sdcard1 (or external card) and then selct the Supersu zip and proceed to flash. Reboot your phone and you should have full root and custom recovery.

I have the Verizon Developer Edition S4. It comes with an unlocked bootloader (no action on your part required). To root you just place the SuperSU (or other su) on your external sd card and flash. There is another way to root, but you loose your stock kernel in the process...not recommended. Custom recoveries vary, but PHilZ and TWRP 2.5.0.2 are the most commonly used. TWRP seems to be the most preferred and most successful when flashing AOSP ROMS...that's just my experience. The phone will come with MDK system etc. And yes, the stock ROM is TW and all the bloat you get with a retail version is there also.

Hi,
dont panic, I went thru exactly the same process right up till the TWRP and wipe. All you need to do is get hold of the stock rooted rom zip from here:
Then copy it onto your sdcard, for which you can connect to the computer using Advanced menu of the TWRP, and load the sdcard, which will connect as USB storage to PC.
Then once file is on sd card, just go back to main TWRP meny and select install option, then select the zip file you just copied.
Let TWRP do its stuff, then do a factory reset / then go into reboot system.
Wish you all the best. Once the ROM has installed, now you can search for the latest TWRP, install it then go on to latest kit kat roms in exactly the same way.

hope he follows up with a thank you.

Many Thanks and Regards

That file is stock firmware inside the zip is a .tot file that can be renamed to .bin and used with lgnpst to bring the phone back to stock. You would need to be able to get into download mode
again. If you do use the g33k3r file you would need to root again then use Freegee app from play store to unlock bootloader and install recovery.

Hi,
Now I'm downloading ...
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg/att/firmware/LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012-0.zip
I guess this is original ATT LG E970 Firmware. I will copy it into my external Memory Card and then will insert into phone. After that using TWRP I'll be going to use this Zip file and after that factory reset. Am I correct ? Do I need to follow different steps ?
Let me know. Moreover do I need to unlock Phone again? When I received it was already in Unlocked State. So installing the above link firmware will lock it again? Or should I proceed with the link I posted earlier, I mean this ..
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip
And Rename File to .bin instead of .tot and Make ZIP it again ?
Please let me know.
PS ; I'm still Downloading The firmware from Ist link.
Regards

Get into bootloader by pressing volume up + power key simultaneously. Then press volume down key twice only. Next press power key once.
Rom you downloaded can be verified by search for Stock Rooted rom versio 20j. Hope u get thru ur troubles. Dont forget to press thanks button.
Cheers. Milind

Hi, I tried these ROMS,
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/g33k3r/LGE970AT-01-V20j-310-410-MAR-08-2013.zip
and downloaded today ..
ttp://downloads.codefi.re/thecubed/lgoptimusg/att/firmware/LGE970AT-00-V10o-ATT-US-SEP-29-2012-0.zip
Both are not working. ON TWRP it is saying ..
MD5 File NOT FOUND
ZIP File Signature VERIFICATION FAILED
Error in Flashing Zip
Please help?
Edit : I also tried Unticking ZIP File Verification. But still it says .. "Error in Flashing Zip"
I did this from the forum @carrett started:
Obtain the following files: AutoLGNPST-tSilenzio.zip (available on IRC or googling), and the firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219953). Unzip AutoLGNPST-tSilenzio.zip and follow the instructions in "READ ME FIRST.txt" (mad props to tSilenzio for automating this process).

make sure to download the first file too.... to get to download mode just use twrp's reboot menu... from what i remember it has a reboot to bootloader. From there you can use the volume keys to select Download mode and push the power button to go into it...

I tried reboot to boot loader but unfortunately it takes me back to Fast Boot mode (in green Andriod screen) :/
I also tried all options of reboot but no use. Either the phone comes in Fast Boot mode or Power off.

Poweroff phone>connect usb cable to phone (not to computer yet)>hold down (both) volume up/volume down>connect usb to computer (while holding down volume buttons)

اخي شو مشان انو عم يطلعلي شاشة بيضا
كل ما ادخول عل ريكفري صار يطلعلي شاشة بيضا و ما عم اقدر اظبطوا لو سمحت تساعدني
Working CWM Recovery for S7262
Here is the Link . . . . .. . Flash with Odin
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6xAzFVJYc3YbXlaaWNyenlpNkU/view?pli=1
why is the screen going white and nothing showing up while booting into recovery mode ?
the flashing of the recovery was a succes acording to odin.
giliwawa: Maybe your recovery.tar was corrupted... You can try another one, or come back to the stock one which can be extracted from a firmware update.
Odin link .......

Odin link not working
@Jawad Twam IDK if I used this guide to flash twrp recovery on my s7262 or not, cause it's been a long time.
I just wanted to ask why one can't get into recovery mode by pressing the hardware keys. Is it cause I installed twrp or is there anything else I'm missing? I did got into recovery mode through advance reboot in developers options tho. And download mode was working as well through hardware keys.

Maybe the recovery file you flashed, is corrupted. Also, what shows on screen after booting into recovery.?
@Yogesh1969 no it wasn't corrupted. I wasn't pressing the buttons in the right pattern, which I didn't even knew existed by going through the guides given online(even on xda's numerous posts). This video helped me out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP-mglw46h4&t=83s
It's all about proper pattern and timing. And no one mentions it neither on XDA nor on any other website. I tried to find the video through google search but rather I got other BS videos than this helpful one. It's thanks to the history option in youtube I was able to locate it.
If you press all the buttons at the same time, nothing happens. But if you do the same thing in the case of download mode then it works. Like What?? Then when you flash a custom recovery or even root your device, the red warning symbol doesn't shows up on the top left corner of the screen when device boots up, making me to believe that whatever I was doing wasn't working. Unless you install a custom rom or a rom with a custom kernel, then only that warning sign shows up.
It's just all big steaming pile of sh** that samsung created and other forgot to address.
