[Completed] Is there a way to root a Galaxy Grand without a USB cable? - XDA Assist

Hi. I've looked through a couple of threads and none seemed to help me. I'm trying to root my Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos (GT-19082) so that I can install Android Version 5.0
My phone is currently running android version 4.2.2 (stock) and I cannot update it any further unless I root it. My USB port is broken so that means I can't connect it to my PC to access the files, but I can still charge it through an adapter into the wall. Is there anyway I can root my phone without the use of a USB cable? Thanks in advance!

[Q] Help required rooting S2 HD LTE (SHV-E120L) with broken USB port

This is my first post to this forum, so any help will be much appreciated.
So, i got a S2 HD LTE Korean (SHV-E120L) which seems to have a broken usb port since it is not detected.It is not even being registered as an unknown device,it simply starts charging which leads me to believe the Micro USB port is damaged.I have tried all tips and tricks to get it to register including cleaning USB port, reinstalling drivers but in vain.
The device is currently running GB 2.3.6 full of korean bloatware and shows all incoming SMS from Unknown Sender which renders the device useless to my needs.
I have successfully rooted this model before using Odin but this time i have no physical connection to a PC.
I have tried to flash custom recovery, tried Wifi adb, tried installing custom roms, but all these steps either require root access or a USB connection.I have stock recovery <3e> which wont let me install any updates other than samsung .Now i am out of ideas so HELP!!!!

[Q] Cant reset Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3113 back to stock. Cant connect to computer

Hello guys. I've been having this problem with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3113 ever since I flashed Cyanogen mod on it. I would like to set it back to stock firmware but for some reason my PC wont recognize my tablet as a device. My tablet will charge and I also have USB debugging on but still my windows 8 laptop wont recognize my tablet.
So here is my problem in a nutshell:
I Cant find the stock rom for my tablet
My tablet cant connect to my computer
Please help me. I would rather not spend another couple hundred dollars on a new one.
Thanks!

The only way to go back to stock (factory state) is flashing a backup, which is recommended before installing Cyanogenmod or any other custom rom. Other than that, if you're lucky, you can try and find the stock firmware for your P3113.
The issue of your P3113 not connecting to your PC via USB: Try powering off the tablet completely. Connect your tablet to your PC via USB. It should install the USB drivers. When it's done, disconnect your device, boot up the tablet completely. Connect the tablet to your PC again with the USB. If you don't see a change, try enabling USB debugging. I had the same issue with my P5113. This worked for me.

The only root methods that I'm aware of require a USB connection to a PC. I'm curious, though. If your USB port isn't working then how did you flash ICS?

[Completed] Help required!! Samsung galaxy tab 2

Hello, I got a samsung galaxy tab 2. I am very new to rotting and all that, i rooted the tablet using this guide and it has worked
droidviews.com/root-samsung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1-wifi-gt-p5110-on-android-4-1-1-jelly-bean-firmware/
I am trying to accomplish two things with it:
One- Getting the OTG to work with it. It didnt work straight away with the adapter and I have had little luck finding a soloution. THe app USB OTG checker says I have the usb otg api, but when i plug in a usb drive it dosent recognise it. I think i may have to install a "Kernal" to fix this but i don'y know how to find one that is compatible and will work. (I am doing this for my mum so she can use a usb drive and i dont want to brick it)
Two- this is the main goal, to get ethernet connectivity on the tablet, i think the otg will have to be fixed first but i am not sure. I cant get it to work and apps that enable the ethernet connectivity like:
google.com/store/apps/details?id=xda.usbhost.test&hl=en
Require some kernal. I have su and busybox installed already.
I have a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 GT-P5110 with android version 4.1.1 and kernal version 3.0.31 - 523998
Thank you very much if you can help me
