SM-T280NZKAXAC firmware help

So I had a collasal messup on my T280. I accidentally soft bricked it, and am in need of the Firmware. Asking the live help brought up absolutely no help.
So, does anyone have it? I've tried looking and so far have been unable to find it.

I'm assuming you're referring to https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-T280/
However, I can't find one that matches my model number, which is where my concern more or less comes from.

Flash G955U1 With ENG_BOOT.tar And Modified ODIN. HOTSPOT, NO BLOATWARE (Confirmed)

Successfully flashed from G955USQU1AQEF to G955U1UEU1AQE3 using this method.
1. Backup your data. I found out the hard way that the ENG_BOOT.tar will reset the phone (I know... noob mistake).
2. Reboot into download mode and use the modified Odin to flash ENG_BOOT_G955U.tar under BL.
(I rebooted after this and went through the setup... Im not sure if you have to, but I know it will work if you do)
3. Reboot back into download mode and flash the G955U1UEU1AQE3 files in their appropriate fields.
(I didn't use the HOME_CSC, and everything seems to work great!)
I take no credit for the existence of these files.
Enjoy!

Do you have unlocked bootloader?

I think this is just a Engboot. Not a root method with Engboot. Just Engboot.
@Lmax579 @hazmad
There is no root or bootloader unlock, it's just the engineering bootloader. The only useful thing that I have found is that it allows you to flash the G955U1 firmware. It may allow for downgrading, but just attempting what I already did was enough risk for now... Maybe I'll try it at one point.

So do you have to use the Engineering Kernel to switch firmware versions now?
I thought you could just flash the U1 firmware using the modified Odin if you wanted to.

It doesn't have carrier bloatware, and enables tethering for other carriers. Possibly quicker updates, because there would be no wait for the carrier to release it, not positive on that tho.

But do you have to use ENGBOOT to flash the Unlocked firmware?
Before the last update you just had to use modified Odin from the other thread.

If i remember right you can flash u1 without engboot
After I flashed the firmware, i no longer had the hurricane symbol but do I still have the features of the engkernel?

When i try to flash the file i get the message secure Check fail (boot) and cannot continue. Any suggestions?
My phone is S337TLUDU2AQG2

Yes. Do any of you happen to have root and a system dump?
Secure check fails for boot. Seems to be locked bootloader. I could be incorrect but thats what I recall from owning this device.

Thank you for your help, but my device is the Galaxy J3 Luna Pro SM-327VL so i think that there might be a difference in GSM as opposed to CDMA as you model number is SM-337TL, so it is failing for me when I try to flash through ODIN.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tyler

Hey, hope all is well.. all these firmware updates have a carrier. Was wondering whether that flashing them would affect the phone. Please let me know where it's ok to flash one of these. Thanks.

Choose Germany DBT that is no carrier
what is the VERY latest stock rom???
is there a changelog for firmware PDA N910FXXU1DRI2?
what are the differences with previous version "N910FXXU1DQL2"?
Who can tell me where I can download the latest factory ROM? I can only install with TWRP.
