hi
i just bought a samsung galaxy note pro 12.2 tablet.
Im wondering if there is a easy way to root it without wipe? how ?
its sm-p900 running android 5.0.2
Easy way? Maybe, but just look at the threads here about rooting. I find it absolutely no fun to do. I have so many working productive apps on my 12.2 that I would never risk rooting. Why do you want to do it?
i rooted my note 10.1 quite easy but dont remember where i found the guide.
Can anyone link me to a easy guide, updated? most thread are old, dont know if its safe.....
i want to get access to the system/app files thats why i need root...

I'm pretty sure you can use CF-Auto-Root.

If you want to get a different experience, flash Lineage 7.1.x. Totally worth it.

Rooting shouldn't have any impact on most apps. And if the app is checking for root, there are ways around that. Using Titanium Backup with root is probably one of the biggest things for me.

Until now, I still can't decide if I should root my Galaxy 5 or not. I am really afraid that I may brick my phone.
So, I have read a lot of forums already and posts that rooting is really risky because I have all the controls of my phone. That I can destroy it anytime I want.
Should I root my phone? I am really afraid. Is there any way to unroot it after rooting? Thanks!
Try universal androot . I rooted my galaxy 5 using it , works perfectly

I am brand new to Android. I just bought a Galaxy Note Tablet 10.1 but it's the GT-N8010 model. I would prefer to have the US version GT-N8013 because it seems that there are a few apps / functions are not available in N8010 model.
I've seen several threads about flashing for phones but not for the Note Tablet 10.1. And I can't find anything about how to actually get started from the very beginning. I've always had Apple products so even the terms flashing and rooting are new to me. I need bare bones basic instructions on how to root my note tablet. I bought the ODIN app and it won't let me use it until I rooted and that I needed to be a superuser? I'm so confused... /:
Can someone please help me? What apps do I need and what's the actual process? I appreciate any help anyone could give me.
Thanks!

I used this thread that's sticked in the note Q&A to root my tablet. I actually did it yesterday after getting the german jb 4.1.2. I wanted to use the multiwindow app, so I had to root. I am new to this as well, but that thread got me through the process flawlessly. =) I used the pc version of Odin to do mine though.

Sweet! Thanks. I'm now rooted! On to the next step!
First of all, let me apologize for posting this in android general first since i am new here. I later realized that posting it in samsung galaxy s6 forum will be a much wiser choice.
Hi Everyone,
I accidentally deleted pictures from my samsung galaxy s6 phone and am looking into rooting the phone to recover them (havent used the phone since then). But most of the applications out there require rooting. I have looked into pingpong root and Chainfire but they dont list the exact build version of my phone.
EXACT build version of my galaxy s6:
MMB29K.G920IDVU3EPH9
WHAT'S available online:
the closest i found is from chainfire (CF-auto root) is MMB29K.G920IDVU3EPC6.
Please advise if i can use the root file meant for the build available with chainfire or if anyone has rooted their galaxy s6 for my exact build then please advise on that.

I am not quite sure, since I am also relatively new to the phone, but CF autoroot should work fine. The problem I see however is that AFAIK the phone will be wiped after rooting, so I dont know, if rooting will be of any help to you. You should try to find out, if there is any way to get a system dump. More precisely your sdcard. This way you can have as many recovery attempts as you want, without risking to overwrite anything. Hope it helps. Also rooting itself and installing SU will overwrite some of your storage. So be careful.

is this because the build is different?

Like I said, I don't know, since I don't kmow much about the phone yet, but I thought I had read about CF autoroot wiping the phone after rooting, but please check on your own. Google system dump galaxy s6. Maybe system dump android 6.0.1. I haven't done it in a while, but it should work using adb pull. Maybe there is a new command already. But please read up on it first.

Hi, I was thinking about rooting my Galaxy S7 and I know that KNOX will be tripped and I will not be able to use Samsung Pay, S Health or get OTA updates ever again but I was wondering was that it and what are your thoughts on rooting the galaxy s7 and if you think it's worth it? I want to dual boot King rom and RR Remix but I'm not sure if it's worth it?
I think that's a very subjective question for which the answer should come from you. But IMHO, since you are seeking opinions, I haven't felt the need to root mine [yet]. So far this is the only Android I've had that I haven't rooted - and I've had Androids since the original Motorola Droid. I haven't used Samsung Pay yet but I think that once I do I will become accustomed to it. For now I am holding off on rooting. I find that my S7 gives me most of what I want and I'm not missing root at all.

So why did you root before the s7? I ask because I plan on buying the s7 to BL unlock and run custom rom..
No, i dont think its worth it! Stock rom does a great job and even the backups work perfectly with the samsung cloud and also you can use Package Disabler Pro without root so thats all you need.

Thanks, I think unless they release a fully stable, feature packed AOSP rom I'm gonna stick with stock. I do like Android N for the Galaxy S7 and it's definitely a step in the right direction from Samsung :good:

Thanks for your opinion. I think your right, other than custom roms I don't really see a reason to root. I think unless they release a fully stable rom (like AOSP) that I really want I'm gonna stick to stock for now. I wish there was a way to get the dual speaker mod without root though, that would be good.

Gotcha
I honestly haven't rooted since my OnePlus days, and even then once I started using Google Wallet/Android Pay I reverted to stock. On my S4 I had to root to gain some of the functionality/customizations I wanted. With the OnePlus and my S7 Edge, the need just isn't there. Sure, I'd like to remove some of the AT&T bloat, but at least I can disable those apps which is good enough for me.
I used to root al my devices, galaxy 1,3,4,5,6, htc one x, m7/8/9, pixel 2, and now I own an oneplus 6, 8gb/120. My question is: is any advantage in rooting this device? Or will be the same but with custom kernel/recovery/rom? Thanks guys.

I was the same as you. Rooted my nexus's etc. But apart from doing specific things such as installing google apps on the oneplus rather than the Oxygen ones I cant see the point anymore. I think the slot a/b things has also taken the fun out of flashing roms. Used to be a piece of cake but now the slightest thing out of order and your gone.
Just my thoughts and only for me personally.
Depends on why you want root :s I want root to backup apps + data custom kernel and for ViPER4Android.
Also, the A/B slot thing isnt making flashing roms hard, you just have to remember that when flashing a ROM it will replace twrp, also it's important to have the firmware installed to the slot you want to use for your custom rom ?* but like I said, I could go without root aswell if it wasn't for viper and custom kernel.
Yeah just depends on how you want to interact with your phone. I like to root my device for adaway, so my free apps don't have those annoying popup ads. I'm looking at you mx player...
Thanks
Thanks to all who reply this. Im considering root my device, especially because one of u said something about adaway <3 I would love that! Thanks for ur help guys,.

To be honest, having Magisk on the phone isn't gonna take functionnality away ... It's just a nice thing to have when you need too, so the question is more :
Is there a reason not to root it ?

The fix is the same now as it was before. Backup your snapchat, restore it on the rooted device.
Or.. Just stop using it lol
Even if you get it working on a rooted device, you could end up getting banned.
Rooting really depends on how much time you have to waste.
fixing boot loops.
broken apps.
loss of services such as Google pay.
Broken camera functions.
Seems like every custom rom has issues.
My attitude pertains to the OnePlus devices now if you have a Samsung device then root that suckers to get rid of their crapware.
