WELCOME TO MY THREAD
The reason why I made this thread is because I'm a complete noob and I often have difficulties doing all the tutorials provided in this forum, and I often ask youtube for help, so I'd like to provide to all noobs videos about Galaxy S4 How to's. From basic tutorials,how to root S4 to a lot of S4 customization stuff I will share the videos I found on youtube. If you're an expert please just leave this thread, this thread is mainly for noobs only. So here we go:
1. How To Root Galaxy S4 On Android 4.2 Jelly Bean And Install CWM
2.How to Root Galaxy S4! (another version)
3. How To Root Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile (might be a different tutorial if you're using one of these operators)
4. How to Install CWM Recovery and Rom on Samsung Galaxy S4
I hope this helps. I will update the thread if I find new tutorials next time

Hi all,
i would like to ask how to install a custom rom onto my samsung galaxy s3 mini and note 8.0. I know there are many guides but i just made a switch from apple and i have no idea what they mean, even the clearest one.. I just want to update these devices to lollipop since they are still on 4.1.2 jelly bean. Omnirom or cyanogen or others, i dont mind, i just want an updated device. Step by step instructions on everything would be perfect thank you!! By the way, i dont have windows, only mac.

For all the developers still willing to make new custom roms such as roms based on android L, can u guys please try your absolute best to make it possible, as the galaxy s2 HD LTE is still my secondary phone and i feel like it should deserve a decent amount of roms support just like the original s2 I9100
Hi!
Xda Assist is here to help navigate the site. As I see, you have already posted in your device section... Which is good! That's a better place to post such things.

Hi,
Can someone please advise where can I find custom ROM for Samsung Note 10.1 n8010 (Wifi).
I am currently using Marshmallow and would like to get my hands on Nougat.
The one currently available (link below) has issues with Keyboard and have to always use Physical Keyboard rather than touch keyboard. Also there has been no update since 05/03/2017.
Any suggestions????

Thanks
If you read the forum you will see all the current roms in development .
But no longer much development on Note 10.1 that's the lot no more and no less on this forum .
You may find other development on other forums via Google search but probably the same as this forum .
Questions do not belong here PM a mod to move to correct forum section .
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this platform and to be honest a bit overwhelmed. Apologize if this thread is in the wrong section.
I should also mention that I'm not too familiar with technical points.
I own an old Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5110) which claims its Android version 4.2.2 is still the most recent one for this device.
So I'm looking for a way to update to a newer versuon, at least Android 6.
My first question is which Android version you suggest?
Second one, how exactly do I do this (is there a step by step tutorial)?
Third one what are the risks? I read something about data loss and completely broken devices?
Thank you in advance.

Mate, I'm on the same boat. Same tablet, also overwhelmed The only response to your post points to some custom ROM page but the instructions are not detailed. I thought I had to throw my tablet but it seems like it still has some life to breath if I can get it a newer ROM (many apps are not supported anymore with Android 4.2).
I think the first thing to do is root the device but where to start? I'd prefer using linux with adb, etc.
There is a lot of stuff here. Is there anyone that has taken the time to write a detailed step by step guide somewhere?
BTW, my intention is not only to revive the device but to ditch all Google crap apps. In an ideal world, I would have installed a ROM from /e/ Foundation, but they do not support the device so I guess my next best bet is some custom ROM that uses LineageOS?
Hi,
First you need to root your device and install TWRP recovery:
More info here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...final-root-single-step-twrp-recovery-t3404779
It's an old thread but you'll get the idea.
See this one as well:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-samsung-galaxy-tab-2/
You'll need to find the correct version for your model otherwise you'll and up with a nice paperweight.
After this, you'll be able to back up your current ROM and install new ones. Unfortunately, I have a different model of Tab 2 that has no available custom ROM's so I can't say which ROM is better than other. I would read more in the link provided for slim roms.
To get rid of the installed bloatware and even Google apps I used SD Maid. See my thread below with what's left on my tablet (Disclaimer: it's a barebone setup and not all things work so I don't advise going that deep unless you're willing to take the risk of having a bricked tablet. You were warned!):

Cheers!
