I bought a couple Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 tablets to develop native ARM Linux applications with. One is stock and updating fine. The other was rooted with the CleanRom image. (4.03) Samsung has image updated my unrooted tablet twice since I got them. There doesn't seem to be any activity or response to messages as to the status of an updated CleanRom.
All I'm after is a rooting method so I can compile native on the device and run a chroot Ubuntu image. I would like my Android updates to remain current but still remain rooted. What would be the best rooting method for me and my SGT2_10.1?
Thanks for any advice or comments!
I was wondering if anyone might have an idea on the best direction to take keeping a SGT2_10.1 rooted tablet current with Samsung's latest release.
Thanks in advance for any help or comments on this topic!

Hello there,
My android version is 4.0.4, Kernel 3.0.13. The device is already rooted. I want to update it to the latest Paranoid Android version. I thought I was tech-savvy enough to pull it off on my own. But I am not. The prospect alone of a "bricked" phone haunts me. I am also oblivious to what happens AFTER a successful Paranoid Android update. Will the data of all of my applications be wiped out? Does Paranoid Android have it's own messaging, dial and contacts app? Calendar app? Or do we have to download the necessary applications? Can we revert back to our stock rom if Paranoid Android doesn't have all the needed features? What if doesn't have a camera app of its own!? My phone doesn't have an official Paranoid Android rom on the web. You've probably never even heard of it. It's a QMobile Noir A5 Classic.
I really fell in love with Paranoid Android. If there is any way you guys can help me, please do.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
If a bricked phone haunts you, I would definitely hold off on pursuing any further. There seems to be big hopes but no development for this device. Worse, the rule of the ROM is that it has to be built very specifically for that device.
Even if there was a custom ROM for your device, the process of installing it (known as a clean flash), will wipe all app data from the phone (pictures and other files will likely stay). Also, I never used PA, but I believe it has all that you are looking mentioning above (particularly after installing Google Apps package, or Gapps). The Play Store can also fill in the missing gaps, such as if it doesn't provide a (decent) camera. You can revert back to stock ROM rather easily, as long as you have made a backup of that ROM in recovery (something else that is needed) first.
Unfortunately, in respect to the prospect of ROM's (or recovery), if there haven't been any milestones in two years, it's probably not going to happen.
Sorry.
Thanks, Joel. I think I'll stick to my stock ROM, in light of what you've said.
My 2015 Hannspree tablet came with Android KitKat installed and Hannspree will never update the tablet. I am hoping somebody will give me a helping hand in either modifying the OS that came with the tablet to help it run better or help me port a newer OS to the tablet. I don't have the kernel for the tablet. I've asked Hannspree on multiple occasions for the kernel or the OS for the tablet and every time they've rejected my request. They told me about two weeks ago they apply to the main HQ for the kernel again but they still havent replied. I did get help with installing CWM on the tablet and got a cwm backup that I can work on though.

Hi everybody,
Seems like I posted in the wrong topic (General forum), so I post my question here
I am now using a Galaxy tab 2 P5110, running under Android 4.1.2, not rooted.
My problem is that my Tab is really slow when I use basic apps (chrome, office apps).
In order to get a bit more power from it (removing the Samsung layout, but I know it's a 2012 tablet...) I am looking for the most stable ROM I could use, and if possible running under a quite recent android version.
I am quite new to this kind of manipulations, so I am also looking for a tutorial to instal the ROM you could advice me.
I know I have to root my tab before doing anything. Does the tutorial available here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=1657056 - by Weltwon) work with 4.1.2 android version?
I have an other question: Is the root enough to remove the Samsung touchwizz layer? If yes, how to do it?
Thank you all for your answers!

Edit: I have an other question. Is the root enough to remove the Samsung touchwizz layer? If yes, how to do it?
Before you do any of this, check if your emmc is faulty or not by using a brickbug checker app from the play store.
(Requires root) f you want to stay on stock rom but its becoming laggy, trimming the storage would reduce lags. This is because native trim support didnt come until 4.3.
But if you want to move to the latest version of android, most roms posted under the unified section are stable except 7.1 which is still experimetal
--Rooting the tab--
You can use cf autoroot by chainfire but it requires a usb cable, a pc, and odin. Tutorials about this can be found on google. Just make sure you use the right package for our model.
You can also use one touch root apps such as kingroot or kingoroot but they contain bloatware.
And lastly, you can flash a custom recovery such as TWRP using odin and flash supersu from there.
Hope this helps
Thanks you Lightracer!
Do you have an emmc chercher app to advice?
I'm going to read a bit more about rooting ans flashing ROM.
I do not really care about running Samsung Stock ROM or not. My though was to run an Android Stock ROM, without any "layer" (touchwizz, ...), And if possible, the most up to date version.
Is it necessary to enable TRIM if I flash a Android Marshmallow or Nougat ROM ?

Just check "Emmc brickbug check" in the play store.
If you want the stockiest rom, check out the unlegacy project in the unified section. Its AOSP 4.4/5.1 /6.0/7.1 roms.
TRIM is enabled in most kernels. But if you have the emmc brickbug, it might kill your tab X(
Good luck! Also press thanks if I helped ^_^
Hi, everybody --
I have an SM-P900 (WiFi) that I'd like to root. Coming over from DOS/Windows (and the PDP/VAX [!] world before that -- yep, I'm a geezer), I've been lurking for quite a while, trying to figure out exactly what's going on with the whole rooting process. Given that, there are a lot of things I'm still not sure about, but one big one in particular.
My SM-P900 is running 5.0.2, build P900UES1CPL1. I was looking into going with CF-root, but the latest version of CF-autoroot is for build P900UBU0BOI1. Will the BOI1 version of CF-root work with build CPL1, or would I have to flash back to BOI1 first?
Any advice or info about this -- particularly if any of you have been successful in working through this particular combination -- would be very welcome. And if you might think that another rooting method would be more appropriate, I'd certainly like to hear that, too!
Thanks for reading this --

Hi,
I have the same Tab, love it, and I just (3 weeks ago) used TWRP and installed Android 7.1.1 Nougat ROM onto my Tablet. I love it and it is running well. It gets hot from time to time if I'm on chrome too long, or on Bhootie app for boot animations. But it is running very good and I can't complain a bit. I am just sitting and waiting for the Oreo update to come out. I think it was called "lineage-14.1-20170110-UNOFFICIAL-v1awifi" look for that first. Marshmallow was fun, but it didn't seem correctly ROMed. I am 52 years old and I still love this stuff. I must stop now to go to work. Have fun Mark.
Help me
I have a note pro 12.2... can anyone help me get past 5.1. Lolipop... Help

Hi All,
Apologies I know this is a old device and trust me I have scoured the web before I ask for for this.
Does anyone have Gapps etc for Cyanogen Android version 4.3.1 for this o/s?
I know it's old and no longer supported, but I have just been handed this Samsung Galaxy tab 2 EPRESSO10RF and wanted to try and get some life out of it.
Cyanogen Android version 4.3.1 - seems to run pretty well on this device, hence why I wanted to pursue getting play store on this.
Thank you in advance.
You should go to the "Unified development" thread as you have many up to date and fully working roms from Marshmallow to Oreo.

If you want to use Jellybean then sure. There is a russian forum called 4pda i remeber there still being an alive link for jb gapps. Will check and update. But i would recommend something like a marshmellow rom without gapps. Gapps have become quite a lag machine on these older devices since 2012. I only see them viable on kitkat.
