Fastboot Mode - Galaxy Tab A 2016 - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Hi,
i am trying to flash twrp recovery.
booting device in download mode -> heimdall can not detect the device
Ok why not use good old fastboot, but i can not boot to fastboot mode:
1. adb reboot bootloader -> device does just a reboot
2. selecting "reboot to bootloader" in stock recovery does only a reboot too ...
What I am doing wrong?

I solved the problem:
Fastboot is not working because of the locked bootloader.
Heimdall-flash from the debian packages is not working with this device - heimdall-flash under ubuntu did it ...

Can u pls tell me how u did it..... I want to unlock the bootloader of my T585. It only has (stock)recovery and download modes no Fastboot mode. pls bare with me I'm a noob with a bit of experience
Pls reply to this or contact me at [email protected]

****************************************************************************************************
i suggest you this guide this method do for me
Disable update CM recovery option in developer options... Then flash custom recovery.... it will work.
once flashing twrp recovery, you will need to use
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1ebf reboot
command.
remove battery after install recovery before restarting phone
then insert battery and start in custom recovery
install Custom Recovery
1) enable developer options
2)enable advance reboot and usb debugging
3)disable Update CM recovery option
4)reboot to bootloader and flash recovery
" fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash recovery recovery_twrpyulolli.img "
5) directly disconnect phone (phone displaying FASTBOOT MODE)
6) remove battery and start phone in recovery mode using volume UP+DOWN and power key
7) And YOUR are IN TWRP RECOVERY ......
THIS method work for me perfectly .....i m also having same problem of flashing custom recovery and again showing CM RECOVERY
:laugh::laugh:

I Have a big issue and need your help
I was OOS3 and do all the correct steps to get modified TWRP to setup custom rom and succeeded on this they I decide to back agaon to OOS3 as it`s more sable
So I download OOS3 and flash it from my Modified Recovery and works fine
Than I decide to enter the recovery just to clear the cash for agood performance and here .. the issue started ...
when I click reboot to recovery , the mobile stopped @ 1+ LOGO So I remmember that this modified recovery is not working with oos3
so I get the steps for unloacking the boatloader again to flash the recovery compatible with OOS3
and HERE .. I see my device when I type
fastboot devices ,,,
but once I type "fastboot oem unlock" it`s show my ok and device rebooted in the same 1+ LOGO

the command you're looking for is not the unlock one but this one: fastboot flash recovery "twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img" just replace "twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img" with the name of the recovery .img you have in the same folder as fastboot.

How Can I do this and I even can not unlock the boatloader ?
should still be unlocked - put phone in fastboot mode, check for it via: fastboot devices. If its there then just flash the recovery with: fastboot flash recovery "twrp-2.8.x.x-xxx.img" then reboot into recovery. should work

When did you lock the phone again after unlocking it?
Assuming the phone shows up when running "fastboot devices" try running this "fastboot -i 0x2a70 oem unlock-go" - worked for me

Getting your device connected is a very important stage, whether it is system,recovery or fastboot. From what I read , you can connsct through fasatboot, since you flashed cyanogen. Just flash TWRP 3.2.1 or so which is the latest, through fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.3.2.1 .img ( Remember the spaces, the name twrp.xxx.img should be same as you downloaded. If flash is successful, you can see twrp when you boot to recovery. Then flash supersu file and/or whichever rom you want.
Sorry for late answers.
I was lil busy and sorry for wrong address also.
You could get it from firmwarefile.com
I can't post link here but select yu yureka plus variant and download oldest CBP

Can't get into bootloader?

Hey guys, I've been trying to unlock my bootloader so that I can try and root my Maven 3 via Magisk. The problem is, I can't get into the bootloader. If I try to reboot to the bootloader from recovery mode, it just restarts like normal. Same thing when I try using adb commands in the cmd prompt. I am on Windows 7.
I think it could be unlocked trought EDL mode. But we need some expert help
I unlocked my phone with at&t but I think it only unlocked the SIM.
I enabled usb debugging and oem unlock, but when I issue the command (in ubuntu term)
adb reboot bootloader
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
is just boots into the android system.
Any clue on what to do?
I have the same question - bootloader mode will not load when I issue "adb reboot bootloader", nor will it go into bootloader when I go into recovery mode (via POWER + VOLUME UP) and then I choose the "Bootloader" option. The phone just boots into the system. When I use "adb reboot recovery" it does go into recovery mode, and I am able to get a shell and copy files via adb just fine. I am using the latest platform-tools.
This is a ZTE Z835 (Maven 3), AT&T, carrier unlocked phone.
I don't think there is a bootloader... I have not found any fastboot-compatible mode on this device nor have I heard anyone else find one. You have FTM mode (Power + Volume Down) and EDL mode (adb reboot edl). EDL mode lets it work with QFIL, and with QFIL, you can literally dump and modify any partition on the device you want... I'm not sure what else you want. There's a new method for unlocking the bootloader https://www.xda-developers.com/unlock-bootloader-zte-phones/. I found that my devinfo partition was already unlocked, but you may need to check. I'm going to try and figure out how to create a recovery.bin partition able to be flashed in QFIL.
