I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 SCH-I925 that has some form of a custom build on it. The settings are locked with an admin password. It appears to be customized for a specific use and I'm trying to determine how it can be restored to a stock image of the appropriate Android build so that it can be put to good use. I've tried searching and find different instructions on how to install a fresh build and IPL to a stock system.
Any help is greatly appreciated and thanks for your expertise.
Your first step is probably to Root. Please review Super Easy Root Method for Tab 10.1 (Noob Friendly Guide)

Hi guys,
I am new to the forum and in need of considerable help.
I have a Tmobile Galaxy S 4g (not the SII). I had previously upgrade the phone to gingerbread 2.3.6, but last night I was trying to root it again to do a lag fix.
Unfortunately, I think I used the wrong root file - I used something for Galaxy S GT-19000. Now, whenever I try to start the phone it just switches back and forth from the Tmobile Galaxy S screen to the Galaxy S GT-19000.
I used ODIN to root it, and now I desperately need to return it to factory settings. Can anyone help?
I tried looking for original factory firmware, but I can only find it for the Galaxy SII. Would that even work?
Thanks - I would appreciate any help I can get!
Hi,
I need to root the Galaxy Tab 7.7, but the tab still uses Honeycomb 3.2 as OS, so please some one provide the rooting files, so that I can root this device, I have searched the other forums, but find the rooting files for ICS, Can I use these files to root? I want to root the device through recovery mode, so please provide the required files.
Thank You.

Hi, I would say refer to the following:

Hello XDA.
I recently got a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GSM from a cousin asking for me to root it and install CM on it for her. I am quite familiar with rooting, unlocking and installing custom ROMs but that was on Nexus devices. After some searching around the forum, I find it a bit odd & different from how the process of doing so in Nexus devices.
My questions are:
1) Does it work in the same procedure? Unlock bootloader -> Install recovery -> flash SuperSU (root) & ROM
Because that's what I did with my Nexus devices and it worked fine.
2) Does ADB work the same way? Does fastboot even exist in all Android devices?
I haven't tried yet, as I do not have the proprietary cable with me.
3) How do I completely restore back to stock by flashing?
I saw an Odin method (which I am unfamiliar with) but it says, it requires me to be in Android itself. What if I am stuck in bootloop?
Thanks so much.
I have taken the first OTA update from VRUFNK1 to VRUFNK4 and have lost root. Not thinking I tried to flash OC1 and it failed probably due to disabled KNOX. am back to a working but non-rooted VRUFNK4
I realize that to flash to OC1 I will need to root first and probably do a full firmware flash from a PC to overwrite the Missing/disabled files.
My question is how can I go about restoring root and upgrading to OC1? Will I have to flash back to VRUFNK1 and root first? Please help as I am not so similar with the newer methods.

Hi
This is my first post here, I'm not a developer or in any way a pro but I am reasonably savvy, so bear with me ?
Is it still possible to root my Tab 3 P5210? And then flash a custom rom of android 6 upwards?
It currently runs on android 4.4.2 but im not sure if that was the version it was purchased with originally. I tried recently when i followed instructions from another thread on here but i soft bricked my device (same as OP - passed on odin, tab stuck on loading screen), although i did recover it back to its previous state eventually. I was using the latest Odin V13, but im not sure if the version of android or odin version needed to be specified for using the right apk(?)
files?
Thanks in advance!
