Did you try Whatsapp in other devices ?
You can get 'application not compitable' error for three ressons :
1. Some apps are marked as only being compatible with certain phones or tablets. However, they may run just fine on unsupported devices.
2. Some apps are only allowed to be installed in certain countries.
3. All apps have a minimum version of Android they require.
I think your problem is either No. 1 or No. 2 .
For Problem No. 1, you can download & install Merket Helper app. This app needs root permission. This can chenge the device model Name. Replace the name with a supported device. Know more about Merket Helper App here .
For problem No. 2, Download the .APK file of Whatsapp from here and install it.

[ROOT 100%] TSD A9300 chinese mobile

ROOT SOLUTION AT #8 POST IN THIS THREAD
Click Thanks if i helped you
Hi, i try to root this phone and i don't found the way.
First of all, this is the phone info:
Hardware : MT6575
Model : TSD A93000
Build number : SJ_A952_A881_M00_S07_120827
Build date UTC : 20120827-095217
Android v : 4.0*
Baseband v: MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V10, 2012/07/03 17:10
Kernel v : 2.6.35.7 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #1 Mon Aug 27 17:45:08 CST 2012
(if you need more info, only demand me)
* I think that this phone IS NOT Android 4.0 because tap-in several times in "setting→about the phone→Android version" show the Zombie Arts by Jack Larsson and also the kernel not belong to Android 4.0, for this think i doubt of the MT6575 processor, thereby, how can i be sure of this info? something apk you know?
When i connect phone (mode debbuging and unknow sources ON) at MTK Droid Tools last version, the software "not responding". I try to install several ADB drivers, but seems none work. The only way to "connect" is when MTKDroidTools is "not responding" i open a cmd window and kill the adb server with "adb kill-server", in this moment the MTKDroidTools stop and read the phone, in this moment i copy&paste the phone info up here. At this moment i click on "root" button but don't work displaying:
"Only through CWM it is possible to get root in this phone! look urls (url chinese) (url xda-developers)" sorry i can't post urls, under 10 posts
I try to follow the tutorial of the 2nd link ([GUIDE] How to ReadBack ROM using SP FlashTool, to make the CWM recovery, to install SuperUser (get root) etc.If your phone not rooted using the ROOT button.), but i can't because the phone not connect at MTKDroidTools for take back the scatter file and etc.
What can i do?
Sorry for the tocho
up!
help me please!!
bump!
Anyone knows something about it?
1.Dowoad the file from the link below.
2. Then download Clockwork Mod Custom Recovery.
3. Then boot into recovery mode, and choose "install from SD Card".
4. Choose Clockwork mod recovery.zip, and it will boot you into a different recovery.
5. From that recovery mode you should be able to flash .zip files without signature verification.
6. Choose install zip from SD Card and choose SU Installer.zip.
Note:To unroot just flash SU Uninstaller.zip the same way you did to flash Installer.zip.

hello, i have tha same smartphone, can you please write the tutorial in english as well ? google translate isnot something i trust for these procedures.
Also som questions:
Do you have the original rom so that if we brick the phove we can revive it via SpFlashTools? Have you managed flashing CWM recovery?
It is very cheap for its characteristics.
Back camera is most likely 2mp (or 3MP) and front 0.3 for sure. I tried resizing and i found that out . Still more than acceptable quality. I got Antutu score of 4500. It is really high for 6575, since my old 6575 could reach 3700 and my current 6577 gets 6800. I really apreciate that too.
dont really understand what is the real clock of the cpu. . Antutu says 19998.84mhz which is rather impossible for a 6575. Cpu spy as well cannot retrieve the frequency states.
checking the gps now

Still need help or have you rooted your phone?
I did root my phone and removed every chinese appi didnt want.
It would be very usefull for someone to post here the original rom so as to be flashed via SpFlashTools since it is 6575.
PS i dont own it now, i gave it to a friend but i m sure he will ask for my help soon, since i am the one who is aware about technology products...
Thank you anyway
I got really big problem with rooting that phone...
i did everything as this instruction says (that spanish one posted by nomerallo, using mgyun software)
and now some of the root checkers says that i do have root acces, and some of them says that i dont!(WTF!?)
And still programs that need root accesto work - doesnt work
and i cannot make root process again because program thinks that phone is already rooted (i cannot click on that ROOT option)

Installing recoveries directly on your phone
Installing a recovery without a PC can be annoying and sometimes confusing. Here's how to do it anyway (make sure you do know what you're doing):
Both ways require you to download a recovery and put it in your sdcard.
The n00b-Friendly Easy Way
1. Install Flashify from Play Store, open it, and grant Superuser permissions.
2. Wait for it to finish reading recovery info.
3. Select Recovery image, browse to your recovery image, and press Yup!
4. Flashify will now install your recovery. It will prompt you afterwards. You can either reboot to recovery or choose to flash more stuff (or exit the app).
The Geeky Dangerous Way
CAUTION! Using a terminal is extremely dangerous and you might just brick your phone if you enter a bad command.
Note: I will be referring to my recovery image as /sdcard/recovery.img.
1. Install Terminal Emulator from Play Store, open it.
2. Type su, press Enter, and grant Superuser permissions.
3. Type
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
YOU MUST TYPE THE COMMAND EXACTLY AS SHOWN. You have been warned.
The last word in the command is mmcblk (zero) p (eighteen)
The command varies with every phone, but the command above is what works with ours.
4. You can either type "reboot recovery" or exit the app.
How to restore to a Stock ROM:
1) Reboot to STOCK recovery (Vol Up + Home + Power). TAKE NOTE OF YOUR 3-CHARACTER SALES CODE, LOCATED AT THE BOTTOM OF RECOVERY IN YELLOW TEXT. You will need the code later on. Wipe data three times and reboot to download (Vol Down + Home + Power, press Vol Up when prompted)
2) Download your stock ROM from SamMobile. Find the firmware that matches your sales code.
3) Download Odin 3.07 and install. Also install Samsung Drivers if you haven't already. Connect phone to PC. Make sure Kies.exe or KiesTrayAgent.exe is not running (check in Task Manager)
4) A blue box should appear in Odin. Click PDA, browse for your .tar.md5 file you downloaded from SamMobile, and wait. Odin will freeze. This is normal. DO NOT CLOSE ODIN IN ANY WAY. When Odin unfreezes, uncheck Auto Reboot, and click Start.
5) Odin will commence flashing. When it finishes, disconnect phone from PC, press and hold Power, and go thru Initial Setup.

If you want a custom recovery with all the options of CWM then get shabbypenguin's OUDHS-based version found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240989 . But to get it to remain as your recovery instead of it reverting back to stock every time you reboot just follow my instructions found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240989&page=4
If you do this you will have all the options of CWM at your disposal. I have read it is compatible with the i8730 but that you just couldn't get it to be permanent. Follow what I have written here and ENJOY!

I tried Shabbypenguin's recovery back in early May, but I was stuck at the "RECOVERY BOOTING..." screen. I left it like that for like 15 minutes and nothing happened. Also there is no "install-recovery.sh" file.
Is that supposed to happen?

You are rooted and did use a quality app for your filesystem explorer, right? If any of this isn't true you won't be able to find the file. If it isn't there, then it is like the newer i437s and isn't like mine which allows you to just rename a file to allow a custom recovery to be permanent and name it back to get back to the stock recovery. Also, when I installed shabbypenguin's custom recovery version 1.0.3.3 I couldn't do it with the .exe file. I had to do it thru ODIN.

If X-plore, ES File Explorer, and Root Explorer count as quality apps, then yes. I am rooted, I can su from the terminal, I can remount partitions as rw or ro, so that's another yes.
You mean I need to use the .tar.md5 file and not the odin oneclick?

It was worth checking. I am sorry you don't have the files. They make working with custom recoveries and then reverting back to the stock one so much easier.

All I can tell you is that the oneclick didn't work for my phone. It just locked up or went dead or something just like it. I had to use ODIN with this file "Express-OUDHS-CWM.tar". It is a .tar file not a .md5 file. You can get that file here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240989
It is the first file shabbypenguin posts there. Use it with ODIN 3.04 which is posted right below it. But you must make sure that your drivers are properly installed first. You can check it by attaching the phone and after a few moments go to My Computer or File Explorer and see if it is listed as a drive.

No worries. I much prefer using dd on the terminal anyways.
So umm. Do you think I should try again or wait for the mysterious CWM that was made by @jt1134?

What would it hurt to try again? Just verify that you can see the phone on My Computer first when it is hooked up to the USB cable before you try going into Download mode. I don't see much reason to wait. Shabbypenguin's version does everything the regular CWM does. It just has a few tweaks to get it to work with the Express. But if you want to wait so that your phone says 6.0.3.3 then I guess you might want to wait for jt1134. I do not know what it would have that shabbypenguin's doesn't but its up to you.

I have spent thousands of dollars just because I always want the latest and greatest, even if it hasn't got any improvements over the old. So yes, I understand. Don't worry, the shabbypenguin version has all the bells and whistles and you can make your nandroid. That was the first thing I did.

[Guide] Root Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5200/P5210 without pre-rooted firmware

Hello everyone,
my english is not too good so exuse me.
This guide is for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5200/P5210 only.
i take not responsibility for bricking your device so please be carefull.
*NEW* video tutorial of this guide (made by @hamsturcio)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9TSr-5P20Y
i have rooted my galaxy tab 3 10.1 P5200 without pre-rooted firmware and i want to show you all how i did:
1-Download TWRP Recovery (make sure to use the version that matches your tab model):
Link for the P5200 model: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952613332
Link for the P5210 model: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952613346
*or you can use CWM recovery incase if TWRP recovery doesn't work:
Link for CWM recovery non-touch (works on both P5200 and P5210):
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23125694133305802
2-Download Odin 3.07:
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877490002273
3-Download the ROOT file (SuperSU)*:
https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU
*Incase if the SuperSU root method doesn't work,try this one instead (Superuser):
http://www59.zippyshare.com/v/96195148/file.html
4-Reboot into download mode(hold volume down+power) you will see a warning message,press volume up to continune,and your tab is now on download mode.
5-Open Odin,Connect the Tab to the computer and click on PDA,then select the TWRP recovery,
-make sure to uncheck 'auto-reboot' before flashing,because the tab might reinstall the stock recovery (thank you @Benzoman for telling me that).
6-When done,reboot the tab,and copy the ROOT file directly to the internal storage of the tab (or even external sdcard) and reboot into recovery (hold volume up+power).
7-Select install zip from sdcard,locate the root file where you have copied it (Internal storage or sdcard) and select it.
8-Flash the root file.
9-Reboot the tab,you will see a new app called SuperSU or Superuser,and surprise your tab is rooted
Credits goes to the developers who made the rooting method possibe on this device,i didn't make them so im only here to share information.
Have a nice day!!
Great guide. First one using twrp for the 10.1
Works great. Only suggestion is to uncheck auto reboot in odin because some people have issues with the tab reinstalling stock recovery with auto reboot.

Yes it nice to have root. TWRP is a little laggy though. It take a few swipes to get it repond sometimes. CMW is another alt but it takes up a whole lot of room for a backup. Almsot 9 gigs! TWRP is closer to 2.5 gigs for a full back up.

You should download TWRP to your PC since you're going to flash it with Odin and the other to the tab because you're going to use it in the new custom recovery ie..TWRP
Sent from my GT-P5210 using XDA Premium HD app
quick question about step 7
In step 7, we are instructed to "install zip from sdcard and choose the root file." I downloaded all the required files onto my computer. To complete step 7 as instructed, do I have to copy the file to the sd card that is in my Tablet so the zip file installs from there or is this a step that is completed through the Odin program and installed off the Root file on my computer? I hope this question makes sense...
Thank you!
Hi depkat,
extSDcard is what I used..
The whole process of rooting was very simple
Sorry EDIT..for clarity
When you complete 'Step 6' you will see where it's needed
(Very clear option top left hand corner on Tab 3's screen - at beginning of step 7)
Last question!
Once the root is complete, which I successfully done, how to we move apps to the sd card? on my phone i used FolderMount. I tried that on the Tab and the errors were great! I could not see storage availability and it just did not work right on the Tab3. Any ideas?

1. If you look at the Tab 3's 'built in' "Application Manager" you will see an option move apps
Can be found "Settings">>"Application Manager">>select app you wish to move>>"Move to SD card
(or the reverse "Move to device Storage" from SD)
2. ES File Manager <<- great tool - worth spending the time reviewing all it's options, doing so will surely save 'anyone' time later on.
(Hint: add/remove apps withOUT prompts (true batch) - back up apps with data etc etc)
Hope this helps
What we really need, is a thread with "Must have Apps for our Galaxy Tab 3s"
with notes on apps to avoid
Best browser I found 'so far' is Dolphin with it's 'Jet Pack' add on
I think you need to add little bit more info to your OP
Because right after the first reboot. You need to immediately press and hold power + volume down button. Reason for that is Stock rom replaces the recovery in the first reboot. So you want to get in to recovery before rom replaces with stock one.
When you exit CWM it will ask you If you want to disable recovery flash.
This info would save a lot of time for other people.

Im a bit confused.
Benzoman told me to uncheck the "auto reboot" when flashing the recovery with odin to prevent the stock ROM from replacing the recovery,and you told me "after the first reboot,to press and hold power + volume down because the stock rom replaces the recovery on the first reboot"What do you mean by the first reboot?before or after flashing the recovery?

If you uncheck auto reboot you avoid the replacement of stock recovery. Giving you the time to boot into the new recovery and reboot without stock recovery installing. Hope this makes sense. Some people have had success not unchecking auto reboot and haven't had any problems with stock recovery reinstalling on reboot. So it seems to suggest using the method of unchecking auto reboot would work for everyone even if they weren't going to have the stock restore issue.

Steps for flashing a .img file to a specific partition ( here, recovery ) :
Here are the two methods :
1st Method ( Using ADB ) -- This needs the phone to be connected to the computer.
Go to the folder containing the recovery.img file you just downloaded.
Shift + Right Click on any empty space in the folder and Select Open Command Window Here
Connect the phone to the computer and make sure you have USB Debugging enabled and not USB Storage
Type these into the Command Window :
adb devices -- This should show the Device attached as KarbonnTitaniumS5Plus-xxxx or any such line.
adb get-state -- This is to ensure USB Debugging works. It will show device, recovery or offline, but here, we would be looking for device
adb reboot bootloader -- This reboots the device into Fastboot mode, also called as HBOOT or Bootloader. This mode is necessary for flashing the recovery.img file
fastboot oem unlock -- This is to ensure that you can flash xxxx.img files to specific partitions of the device.
fastboot flash <<partitionname>> <<nameofrecoveryimagefile.img>> -- This flashes the specific partition image file to the specified partition. Here, we would be looking for something like fastboot flash recovery philzrecoverys5plus.img for the PhilZ Touch Recovery and fastboot flash recovery twrprecovery.img for the TWRP Recovery and fastboot flash recovery cwmrecoverys5plus.img for the.... Well, you understand what I mean. This should show some text on the device like Transferring Flash or Writing Flash and the Time and Speed of it, that would confirm your flashing.
fastboot reboot -- This command reboots the device into the normal system, and lo, you're ready to go !
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
From here, you can reboot to recovery and back again without any issues. This is the tried and tested method, the method which worked perfectly when I tried it on my device. Else, if you have no patience for connecting the Phone to the PC, jabbing on the keyboard and entering n number of commands, you could try this out :
2nd Method ( Using Terminal Emulator ) -- This doesn't need the phone to be connected to the computer.
Place the recovery.img file in the Internal Storage or External SD Card -- Here, I'm placing it as in storage/sdcard0/xxxxrecovery.img
Install Terminal Emulator or any such app onto the phone and Open it.
Type these commands one by one :
su -- This gives root permissions to the Command Executor.
flash_image recovery /storage/sdcard0/xxxxrecovery.img -- This flashes the recovery image file to the recovery partition.
Close the Terminal Window.
Done !
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Another Note : If you're following the Second ( Terminal Emulator ) Method, note that there is a space between flash_image and recovery and the path of the image file. The first method is the preferred one, which worked perfectly with no errors for me; while the second method is risky and might return some errors while trying it out.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Another Loooooong Shortened Note : The TWRP Recovery might, in some rare cases, show your battery level as 19% when it is at 99% and the same goes for the others. If you are encountering this error damn frequently, I'd recommend reverting back to the original CWM basic recovery as it doesn't show any battery info at all ! You also have the option of wiping your Battery Statistics in case the Battery Error in the Touch Recoveries made the system too show the same error. Once, after fully charging the phone to 100% and rebooting to recovery, I found that the TWRP recovery showed the battery level at 19% ! Out of curiosity, I rebooted back to the system and it too, showed it at 19% ! I just plugged it into the charger and was like Whoa !, as the battery sprang from 19% to 24% in 7 seconds flat ! I know that neither the reboot to recovery does drain out that much battery, nor does the recovery randomly perform such miracles on it. So, I just flashed CWM basic recovery to it using fastboot mode, opened it, did a Battery Stats wipe and rebooted to the System. It was back to 99% ! So, a full Battery Statistics wipe helped me solve such errors, and might do the same to you too. Just remove the battery from the phone after you power off from the recovery, put it back in, and let the phone start up. Problem Solved ! Damn, why didn't I think of this earlier ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yet Another Short-But-Not-So-Short Note : I'd recommend disabling the Boot Animation on the phone ( using ROM Toolbox Lite or Pro ) so that the possibility of bootloops is diminished. No Boot Animation = Less Chance of Bootloops !
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
One Last Note : ( Yeah, Right. )
The MIUI ROM and the Sony Xperia v2 ROM work properly. For people who have boot issues, doing a full data wipe/factory reset through the recovery will solve that problem... MIUI is pre rooted, but chainfire's SuperSU app is not installed and there is no keyboard app. The Sony Xperia v2 ROM has SuperSU installed and works properly. However, a high amount of patience is needed to wait for the ROMs to boot up...
As mentioned by cybercrawler, the internal/external swap supposedly works, and appears to be already applied in these ROMs... so, if you are going to flash a new ROM, you had better undo this change...
The clockworkmod recovery file works too, as seen in the screenshots uploaded by cybercrawler... thanks to him for testing that out.
I shall be uploading some screenshots of these in a few days. Both the ROMs run Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2, and the MIUI ROM has a update scheduler app, so I'm guessing it can be updated to 4.4 Kitkat. Anyway... if anybody knows how to bypass Dropbox Error 509 ( This account's public links are generating too much traffic and are temporarily disabled ), please download the Xperia Z v1 ROM and upload it to Google Drive...
Check this thread for further development on this device.
If anybody is willing to volunteer to try a ROM still in development for this device, you can download it here :
https://tr.im/CarbonForKarbonnv1
It is NOT READY FOR FLASHING, but is a Kitkat ROM, so anybody willing to put in their efforts in the development of this ROM can help.

( Creating a new update binary file now, old one wasn't working. )
Anyway, after this and the flashable stock rom zip file, i'll be porting miui 6 to this device !
After that, maybe, I was thinking of an Android L ROM for this device...
Anyway, Back to Project CarbonForKarbonn for now...
Could anyone upload the specifications of moto g (codename falcon) in a post here ?
I need to know it's features and some information abt. it, like whether it supports dual sim, has external sd card support, etc.
so that I could rectify any problems which are occuring because of such non-compatibility errors.
Looooooong schedule... this might take forever...

You need to have ADB and Fastboot tools and the recovery file in the same folder.
Connect the device to the computer, open USB Debugging in Android, open a command window in the folder with adb and twrprecovery.img image ( Shift + Right Click ), and type these commands in it :
adb root -- Don't worry if this shows any error like adbd cannot run as root in production builds. Just proceed with the next step.
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrprecovery.img -- This will automatically format that partition and install the recovery image to it.
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
Done !
Anyway... Building the final parts of the Carbon Nightly ROM, also simultaneously working on MIUI 6 for this device.
Stock ROM build is happening... Just have to generate the updater-script and the update binary.
Status of Each Build :
Carbon ROM : Needs a new Update Binary, creating it, coding it.
TWRP Recovery : Done !
MIUI 6 : Downloading the latest release version. Porting and Update Binary and Updater Script pending.
Stock Flashable Zip : Creating all Update files from scratch, system folder is ready, deodexing pending, App updates pending.
Xperia v3 : Boot Animation Build Progressing, Updating all stock Google apps, Adding Xposed Framework, etc.
Android L ROM : Waiting for a Stable Android L ROM to be released here, still no progress.
Here are the basic mount points of this device which I accidentally discovered while messing about in the Stock ROM :
system : [email protected] : dev/block/mmcblk0p8 -- This is for the System folder, has ext4 partition type
data : [email protected] : dev/block/mmcblk0p10 -- This is for the Data folder, has ext4 partition type
cache : [email protected] : dev/block/mmcblk0p9 -- This is for the Cache folder, has ext4 partition type
Hope it helps !
Which do you think is better : External SD Card as Main Storage or Internal SD Card as Main Storage ?
Anybody can reply by posting here.
This question is for the Carbon ROM and the Stock Flashable Zip ROM.
I felt I should ask you this question as I felt that Internal SD Card has way too less storage for me, but my decision cannot be everybody's decision, can it ?. ( I have 180+ Apps on this device, all linked to SD Card ( 32 gb, ~1.5 gb free space remaining ) ).

Which do you think is better : External SD Card as Main Storage or Internal SD Card as Main Storage ?

Is there any way to change the on-screen soft keys to look them like that of Nexus 5 lollipop soft keys.They look really cool and other thing is the transparency of the on screen buttons.It would be great if you made this above mod in the new ROM

Yeah, I'm working on that. You know that camera you have in other Xperia devices with all that Timescape feature and everything ? I'm adding that to the updated version of this ROM. But, the ROM will still be based on Android Jellybean 4.2.2. I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about that because, if I change the base OS, I'll have to rebuild all the apps from scratch to fit alongside the new permissions and all that stuff, which will take off most of my time.
I'll consider your decision about the Main Storage, but there's one drawback about using it that way. You won't be able to remove your SD Card or unmount it while the OS is on. If that's okay with you, please reply. Anyway, if you want to change it afterwards, you can do so by the vold.fstab edit which cybercrawler had mentioned here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55154053&postcount=31
Thanks for your opinion, by the way !

[ROM][STABLE][N][7.1.1][5.26.20][SM-T377T/W] Stock Debloated Deknoxed Degoogled V1.0

Hey everyone, quick post here, may edit later. I made a stock debloated, deknoxed, degoogled (minus play store/play services which can be disabled) ROM for the Galaxy Tab E 8.0 tablet, there's also a few build.prop tweaks for better performance but it's mostly all stock. ALL the bloatware has been removed. This ROM is still odexed for better speed and it does NOT come with root, though I would recommend rooting it with Magisk if you plan to use root apps. Let me know if there's any bugs, I apologize in advance as this is my first public ROM release. You need TWRP installed to flash this. (P.S. sorry for no proper links but the forum doesn't let me use URLs in message due to not enough posts, there's no viruses or spam here, feel free to check yourself mods.
DISCLAIMER: YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA ON YOUR TABLET AFTER INSTALLING THIS ROM! MAKE BACKUPS OF YOUR FILES BEFORE INSTALLING!
Things you need to install
https://odindownload.com/download/Odin3_v3.14.1.zip ODIN
https://dl.twrp.me/gteslte TWRP
http://ehxz.tk/taberom The ROM
https://androiddatahost.com/wq2ap ADB
A USB cable & Windows PC
Steps to install
1. Download and extract all files and open ODIN
2. With your tablet off, boot to download mode by holding HOME+VOLUME DOWN+POWER then pressing VOLUME UP until it says downloading
3. Click AP button in ODIN and pick the TWRP recovery .tar file then click start
4. After flashing, immediately hold VOLUME UP+HOME+POWER so the tablet will boot straight into recovery
5. Go to WIPE then pick advanced wipe and wipe ALL partitions except for USB/External storage
6. Go to Advanced > ADB sideload and swipe to enable it
7. On your PC with ADB installed, open a command prompt in the location where your ROM file is downloaded and run command
Code:
adb sideload EHXZ-Tab-8-Stock-Debloated-Degoogled-Deknoxed-v1.zip
8. When you see AROMA menu on the tablet, follow the steps on your tablet to install the ROM.
9.. (Optional) Uncheck the reboot box in the installation success screen and go back to to ADB sideload option, then flash Magisk/SuperSU or anything else you'd like on your tablet.
10. Tap reboot in TWRP, it will give a message about no OS installed, ignore this and reboot anyway. First boot will take a while, be patient and just leave the tablet alone, preferably plugged into power.

I know this is a zombie thread but this is the latest T377T ROM I could find. Just installed it today and seems to work great, so thanks for sharing. Haven't yet tested my TMobile features (don't have an active SIM at the moment).

I would love to try this rom, but the link to the ROM (electrohaxz.tk/taberom The ROM) doesn't work anymore. Would you be able to share the ROM with me if you still have the file?
