Hi I am having a major issue with my Exhibit II Phone
I wanted to use snapchat but there was a pop up when I tried to log in that said that I need to download the newest version since the one I have is no longer supported.
I would have simply updated the app but it is apparently not compatible with my device since this phone runs on an older OS.
The newest version of snapchat requires at least Android 4.0
Is there any possible way I can update my OS on my exhibit ii from my current version, 2.3.6. to Android 4.0?
I read a lot of posts about rooting and such but I really don't understand what it is or how to do it
If someone could provide me with a fix for the snapchat issue (running it on my current OS) or detailed instructions on how to safely root my device to run Android 4.0 on my phone then I will be the happiest girl in the world!
Please please please help! I just want snapchat back

Ok guys a friend of mine has a Nokia C7-00.1 with the Symbian OS. I was wondering if it was possible to root this phone and put a version of Android on it? Ive been searching everywhere and have found nothing.
One more question. I have supposedly put the legit version of Gingerbread 2.3.3 on my htc G2 that i found on this site and i was just wondering if its any different than the version that was recently updated my tmobile and if i should uninstall the version i currently have that I acquired and in turn allow tmobile to update the phone itself...
The first question is more important because symbian is wack and his phones specs seems like it could easily run android. Please lmk what the deal is DEVS
Thank You,

Hello everyone !
So I am new here so please forgive me if this question has already been asked. My samsung s3 SGH-I747M is running the new android 4.3. I was wondering if I can root this at this given moment ? Also for most of the methods I could find online, they all assume that I am running android 4.1.2. Does it matter what os I am when rooting ? Or can I goahead and use the methods for os 4.1.2 despite running 4.3. If not, could someone please direct me to a guide for rooting an s3 SGH-I747M running android 4.3 ? Thanks !

Though the above link talks about i9300, I think u can give it a look. Below is the link where CF-Auto-Root is included for ur model.
http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
Anyway's am just suggesting a link, not that am an expert
I would highly doubt the ROM version matters. This has more to do with much lower-level code, so unless the S3 had significant hardware revisions between i9300 releases, everything is the same.
Do you have a computer with Windows 7 or older?
If s, I would try using CASUAL. You literally plug in the phone and click a button.
http://gs3.wonderhowto.com/how-to/e...our-samsung-galaxy-s3-just-one-click-0145341/
This does NOT work on Windows 8 or above.
thanks for all your help guys ! I'll def try it out and let you guys know how it goes.
And I have windows 8 :/

Hello, I have a MZ608 (although I do not use 3G) and it version of android is 4.0.4. It is very, very slow and everyminute it shows me a message about cellular. It is totally wasted since the first day and I've never been able to read a book withou problems like this.
Recently I read in this forum that 4.4.4 is a very stable and light version but I do not found any tutorial on how to do this. Can anyone help me? It is not rooted so I need it from the very beggining.
I'm sorry if there is another thread about this (I could not found any)
I appreciate your help, in advance.
Hi, (sry for the long post but i have allot of questions i can't find solid info on)
Samsung Conquer 4G (SPH-D00), Android version 2.3.6
Brand new to XDA and been looking but all the links aren't working for me
("connection timed out"/"webpage unavailable")
SuperOneClick is what I've been trying to find....but couldn't.
I was able to find and download iRoot, which rooted my old Android but don't know if it really worked
and everything's in a non-English language (I'de rather trust XDA rcmnd stuff).
Can you show me where to find info on:
1)getting a XDA recommended root program for my phone/droid-version)
2) installing custom rom
3)upgrading to a newer version of android (myb)
4)how to enable hotspot on rooted phone
5)connecting my phone to my TV like a Galaxy Note 2 (since i have that cable)
6)how to post all this information for others after i have it all figured out (i want to give back after i learn)
THANK YOU
Hi and welcome to assist,

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!
