samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 gt-p3113 root

i am not sure if i am posting this in the right spot but here is my question has anyone been able to root the new samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 wifi GT-P3113 8gb running ICS 4.0.3 from factory ??? any help would be great even if it is to guide me to the right forum thanks in advance

anybody? trying to root this device.

I just bought the tab 2 7.0. It's pretty nice. I requested that we get a section for it here at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1617079
Does anyone know which Mod I can contact about this?

+1 for new forum... so Far loving this thing

Just got mine today, wouldn't you know it, first thing I do is look here for root even though it was just released two days ago.
Please add my vote for a new section.

I am in line too
I am in the same boat. I have tried every root process out there available for dual core Samsung devices and came up with nothing. Two things I would love to have for this device 1. Root(so I can restore my game data from my bigger tab) 2. A Bone stock ICS ROM.....I guess I should say a recovery as well so I can load a stock ICS ROM onto there.

Mine is on it's way from J&R and it's going to eventually be torn apart and put in my dash of my Nissan Altima to replace my headunit... but I def. want to root it before then, hope it can get it's own section and some dev's can root and ROM it!

i'm liking this tab, except of course lack of root yet (want to restore app data from TiBu!), but of course it's super early to expect it. i also don't like that tablet-mode statusbar/softkeys can't be hidden, so when I play fullscreen videos the buttons are always there. other than that, i am a happy camper.

agree, the notification bar always there takes some getting used to.
this needs root badly. apps2sd would be huge, among other things.

*sigh*
I am wondering how the root works an I am positive there are plenty of threads explaining this, my quesiotn is would the root be an exploit for ICS? or it is specific to Samsung?

It could go either way really. Some of the things in stock ICS are still there on Samsung's custom build of it. An exploit for either of the two is worth trying. The real problem is, how many Samsung ICS devices are there? Anyone look into trying whatever worked on the Galaxy Nexus for the Tab 2?

Sorry for the double post, but this is a method of root that could be an Android wide thing and not rely on a specific exploit. I know they use this for things like the Transformer Prime as well as the Acer A200, so I figured anyone with some development knowledge could take a look at it as I am clueless on that front.
Forgot to include the link, duh.

I tried a few things from the Acer side as well and came up with nothing. The only official ICS devices for Sammy are Galaxy nexus, and one of the galaxy S II variants. Most times they are rooted through Odin first. This device needs some pub so we can grab a dev or two's attention.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

I'm chatting with a developer in private messages right now. I got him to try the mempodroid exploit and he says that it looks like they have closed the hole. Maybe I should send him a link to this thread.

Yes, please do. If a developer needs anything from the Tablet, mine will be at my house tomorrow... I have access to and know how to use ADB, so I can contribute towards helping get us root!

+1 on this. I received mine yesterday and started any known exploit with no success. If any dev needs me to test something let me know!!! We need this thing rooted yesterday and custom roms tomorrow!!!
We also need a separate forum on xda. Just saying.
BTW, Diablo - awesome idea for the head unit. I'm interested to see how it works out!

I went ahead and sent him a link to the thread so we can document any findings that anyone comes across.

I was thinking of using odin to flash the CWM for a plus 7.0. The possibility of bricking my device and not having backup to flash is holding me back though.
Once we have CWM rooting it should be as easy as flashing a zip file with SU included. Right? I'm in no way a dev, just a guy who thinks he knows what is going on.

There is a system dump of our device floating around here, but using odin is the way to go and using another devices odin method setup as a template is probably our best bet.
If we can install CWM, which would have to be built, then we could theoretically flash a superuser.zip, but I think the superuser.zip is a little more complicated than installing just the superuser.apk. I am pretty sure it also includes busy box and binaries, but I am also not a developer so I am just giving it my best educated guess.

I just got mine a few days ago and I will try to odin if you can find a compatible file. I will most certainly lie to microcenter about it being a brick to get a new one.....Just like I did with sprint. I told them it said something about an update and when I clicked it I lost power when I powered it back on it kept looping. So lets get craking on this

As you guy probably know though, you'll want to be very careful with odin. If something goes wrong or it is flashed the wrong way, you will totally screw your device up.

Tronsmart T428 XBMC Plugs

Hi Guys,
I am hoping someone can link me to a Working XBMC and set of plugins.... I have tried several versions, all load onto the T428 just fine, but when installing all the plugins and repo's, many report back as being "broken" or dont start all... Also the streaming is from my PC is poor, buffering on some files....
Playback from the device direct from Mico SD is fine
Thanks in advance !

Have you tried using the xoon q2 dongle firmware?

Have a look on their forum and look for Www.xbmcandroidtv.com/org.xbmc.xbmc.zip it has all the plugins working. Info is on the Exoon website forum. Once their firmware is out I will be flashing to that but as of now this is the best method I know to solve your broken plugins.

[Q] How do I root ZTE T760

Hi,
I just bought a ZTE T760 just recently and was wondering if there was anything I can do to make any modifications with it? I was hoping to at least be able to root it, but unfortunately I haven't been able to find too much except the following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319257
Which seems promising but I can't find a clock work mod for my device, and I'm a little worried in just testing that out since it seems more particular to ZTE blades. Do you think it will be okay to test out?
And I was wondering if there is any good roms out there as well? I tried googling but it came up with one that didn't really seem to stable?
Its also locked onto boost mobile, so I would like to unlock it too but, thats not super important, and from googling in that, it seems paying for an unlock is the best way to go (plus I'm not too sure about the legality of unlocking myself?)

Hi guys, just an update, I got Kingo Android ROOT online and it did everything for me!! It downloaded the driver, ran scripts and rooted, and actually looks kinda nice. Try at your own risk, but worked for me

Excellent news.
Did you end up finding a suitable ROM? I have received a T760 that I have been asked to root and put a custom ROM onto, yet to root it but I will do this tonight... but that leaves me with finding a ROM for it.

Hi, definitely good news, the biggest problem I have though, is I haven't been able to get Rom Manager installed in the boot thing, which meant I haven't been able to try any roms of which I haven't been able to find unfortunately.
You might have better luck at it though.
so Good luck

Will let you know how I go

Zte grand x max
Kinda new to all this but I cant find a way to root my zte z787. Couldn't find anything on CWM RECOVERY OR TWRP. Can I use one from a similar device with same specs? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Envizen EM63TX

I was considering picking one of these tabs up. The specs seem better than my sm-t210, it's even running KK 4.4. and the price is pretty good too. I can't really find any info on it, like how to root it, but any help would be appreciated. I have to have root on all my devices. I saw another thread on here about rooting a similar Envizen tablet, I wonder if that would work on this device too.
Again, any help or feedback would be appreciated.

I was finally able to get this tablet rooted. I Used a Chinese root App. called VROOT V1.7.9.2. This was the only version of this App. that I got to work with this tablet. The newer version did not root. I did try many other common one-click Apk's & and pc programs but no ROOT. I have successfully rooted 5 of these tablets with this version of VROOT.
P.S. did AnTuTu Benchmark and it scored 20043

I'd like a link to it too if you don't mind, and maybe instructions too. I guess that score from AnTuTu Benchmark was pretty good?
Or even if you would consider selling one already rooted, that would work too. Where are you located?

youtube
You can find videos and links to the software on you tube for this device there is also one to change the supersu to english
I don't know if I can put links so here are the titles

I received my unit 3 days ago and this worked for me I am rooted without issue vroot installs some crap that is hard to get rid of I used titanium back up to uninstall.
Also I can't get titanium backup to do a back up it say insufficient space the unit uses sdcard1 for the operating system and usb storage for the install partition so my sdcard is called sdcard0 this could be the issue. I tried sdcard fix but still not working.

That is certainly a scary review with some really good finds. Wish we could get a good rom on this and the 10" one.

Custom ROM for Nextbook NX007HD8G ?

Hi everyone
I got this nice tablet Efun Nextbook NX007HD8G that has Android 4.1.1 and I wanted to install a custom rom for it but I can't find anything here about this tablet, I have seen a very few threads about it and nothing about installing a custom rom into it.
I'm very beginner in these stuff so if you y'all can help me install a custom rom then I would really appreciate it.

I have this tablet (just got it yesterday. Have you had any feedback yet that hasn't been posted to this thread about the files you provided and the rooting process on this tablet? I'm hesitant to be the first one to try it. Is there a way to test this out prior to actually going through with it? Thank you.

Hey! sadly I'm still looking and still can't find any way to install a custom rom, I don't want to try anything so I won't break my tablet.
As for rooting, well I tried 360 Perm root which works on Samsung Galaxy J1 (2015) but it didn't work on this tablet however I found this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2564609
And I'm not sure if it works 100% or not because I haven' tried it yet.
