Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 SGH-I497 AT&T - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If anyone knows of or is in production of a custom ROM please let me know. I have mine rooted with CWM, so if you need any stock files let me know and Ivan send them over! I would love to have something for this make. I see there are plenty of option for the pxxxx or gtxxx models. But nothing for the SGHxxx variants.

Looking for this too!!!!!!!

OK, I will jump in also.... But if you do find one, come to Google+ and point the way.
https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/100516894664157928866

I have one too and I can't believe there is no development for this thing. If there is no dev for it soon, the next new thing will bump it off the AT&T shelf and all we'll have is a rooted stock Tab 2 or the opportunity to buy something else.

Im sorry but there is seriously only one dev for any SGHXXX device. And he only supports the 7" one. Sorry guys. Besides, why not get a Nexus 7 or wait for the new Nexus 7.7?

Maybe because we wanted a 10.1 inch tablet NOT a 7".

How did you get yours rooted? I have tried a number of different ways and never could get it rooted. I have searched XDA for it as well but no luck.

Thank you so much for your most helpful response. Seeing as I had indeed searched several time using different search strategies and didn't find the answer I am most thankful for your able assistance.
As for being in the wrong section, being new here I obviously am not as adept as you in navigating this forum. Once again I must thank you for your enlightenment. You clearly are a paramount of good will and helpfulness.

Thank you for your help. I will check these out. It is a great tablet as is my original Tab 10.1. Between them I use my labtop a heck of a lot less.
Unfortunately, the first link will not allow me to download the file which is apparently what I am looking for and from the second link I can't seem to find the device or file I need. Thanks again though because I now have a better idea of what to search for.

Questions should be asked in Q&A forums, not Development forums.
Thread moved.
I did not make my request clear, sorry. What I am looking for is the stock 4.0.4 upgrade with stock recovery and root injected into the upgrade.
I am not looking for custom ROMs or custom recovery. Thanks for your patience.

Thank you for your suggestion. However, I am only interested in a completely stock ROM with stock recovery and root. Fortunately this is available for my GS3 so I can wait for it to be done by someone for my Tab 10 and Tab2 7.
Thanks again for the response.

Most ROMs by Kidney Poker should be what you require. Post in his threads for any assistance you need.
They do work as i have a 3113 and have used his ROMs
If all these solutions did not work a suggestion to buy mobile odin pro from google play and download the firmware you like that fits your device from www.samfirmware.com then put this firmware in your phone and flash it with mobile odin pro with ever root checked in setting it will inject root to the stock firmware for you

[Q] How to check custom ROM compatibility?

How can I check if a custom ROM is compatible with my phone?
Is it only compatible on a certain phone?
I have a Cherry Mobile Burst, And sadly I can't find a custom ROM for my unit. So I'm asking if there are other custom ROM that I can use??
Thanks!!! :crying:
The only real way is to make sure it specifically states that it IS for your device. If you cannot find one for your device, then you can try to develop one. Even the identical chipset will have different hardware that make the ROMs incompatible.
If it does not say "This ROM is for XXX device" then don't flash it, that's my advice.

I doubt it because there is a lot of work that goes into developing a ROM, like hours and hours, so usually phones that not many people have don't really get it, because why develop for a phone that 20 people own when you can develop for one that thousands or millions of people own.
Keep looking, there may a custom ROM out there, does your phone go by another name? Like an actual model number?

There are no developers that own that device, if they did then there would be ROMs for it.
There is no point in asking or waiting for developers to make ROMs for this device because it will never happen.
You've got a low end device that no one is interested in developing for, you'll have to learn to do it yourself if you want ROMs, that's the only way you'll get ROMS for this device.

Request Twrp kernel for any device

i don't support this thread anymore please go to this thread if you want twrp
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/twrp-builder-t3501992
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy J3 and would like to get TWRP ported to it if possible! I either have or should be able to get the files you need, how do I get them to you though? I have the stock odin flashable firmware, and links a few helpful people on XDA provided for kernel source and such. Let me know if you can help me with this and where we should start, I'm more than willing to use my device to test whatever you come up with!
Galaxy J3!!!
Any word yet on if this is a possibility? Am very interested in getting TWRP for this device. It's a pretty amazing phone especially for the price, so hopefully more people will pick it up later on. I can't imagine my old Desire 510 having more support than this thing!
I would PM you to see if you've caught the messages to this post but haven't seeing as you asked us not too. Feel free to PM me if you want (anyone who has some info on the J3, please do so actually.
Man I wish I knew how to do this stuff. I'd totally make a full root and port twrp right away and share it with you guys. I hate that that one mod called it an obscure device. Why? Because it's cheaper than the s6 but basically has all the same functions? If you could overclock/underclock on que it would be freaking badass.

Agreed, 100%, which is why I hope the OP catches our posts and decides to help us out. It's probably the best new phone offered by virgin mobile (not sure if boost has it/is getting it) in terms of price and features. Hell, their next best phone after it is the S5 i think, and it's not even shipped with lollipop as far as I know, plus a significant price gouge for nothing significantly different? No thank you. I mean come on, the Desire 510 had tons of support and that thing was absolutely horrible.

Need custom rom (without gapps) for Samsung Galaxy A31 !

Can someone help me im trying to install any rom (without gapps) on A31, but it seems that none of the custom roms have A31 as their supported device and im looking for any custom rom and TWRP because i can't even find TWRP. Is the phone just hard to custom rom or what? i searched for 3 hours and coudn't find anything worthy of trying. Thanks and sorry for my bad english !
The Phone doesn't has custom roms or twrp for now.
You could try building one yourself using the source code of SourceCodeSamsung
I find very odd that for Galaxy A30 and the recently launched Galaxy A32 has tons of custom roms available however for A31 it seems to be forgotten by the community, nothing other than the stock rom by Samsung. No official or unofficial roms available, that's very sad.

The A32 port I found in /e/ Foundation forum (its Google-less, ok?) but I doubt it will work and you could brick your device, be aware of that. There was a guy you asked a version for you phone and he unnoficially created a version for you phone, not sure if he still does it there.

This site does it with almost every device but doesn't have a rom available for them, it tends to just change the name of the device and the instructions are the same.
Even the tutorial is dated, same for the images used.

I don't have the url anymore since I've switched to another PC and deleted tons of things from the old one, but I had it bookmarked in my account there and it is not available anymore. If I knew they would remove, I'd backup everything - but we never expect such thing to happen.

Hi the issues is Samsung mass producess so many phones they can't even keep track of them and they eventually get forgotten Bc I've been struggling to find custom roms for my Samsung a31 but nobody even develops for it but I realize now that they are slowly trying to develop as the device losses support.
