[Q] Unsure how to root Galaxy Tab 2 P3110

Hey Guys,
I've just purchased a Galaxy tab 2 P3110 (7.0) and i would like to root the device, and put Cyanogenmod 10 or 10.1 on it, as this is christmas present for a close relative and want the added features Cyanogen offers. I already have this installed on a Samsung S3.
I've seen quite a few different guides on the forums and other websites, all with differing ways to root the device and install custom ROM, can someone please provide a recommended guide to follow.
Check the 7 tab development thread.
Basically you need to download a program named Odin and use it to flash the proper cwm recovery to your tab. Then you boot that recovery to install the rom. You don't need to root, rooting is only if the rom you use is not rooted, like stock rom etc. You also don't need to unlock the bootloader or anything like that.

Dear Nutsonfire,
Thanks for your response i'm still conflicted about which instructions to use, some are saying make sure you download samsung kies, and the drivers etc..... before running ODIN, and some don't even mention it.

Kies is just so that you have the correct usb drivers so that your device is recognized by windows. You can also just install the drivers stand alone or Kies.
get odin and the file from the chainfire topic on the dev section
flash it and voila
quite simple, purchased mine last week and already flashed a lot of things
Amongst a slur of guides to rooting your Galaxy Tab 2 7" 3110, this video helped my a lot.

Hey Guys,
Thanks for all your great help so far.
Not sure if this is applicable but figured i would check before i do it. I've noticed on my device its listed as a P3110, but on a few of the instructions and the CF-AUTO root its listed as model number GT-P3110, from what i have its a plain tab 2, without phone.

yeah we just drop the GT- from the front of the model name as a sorta shorthand the 3 Models for the 7" (not counting the verizon that uses a different model number string) are the GT-P3100, GT-P3110 and GT-P3113 and the 10.1" versions replace the 3 at the beginning with a 5 so they are GT-P5100, GT-P5110 and GT-P5113 they are the same thing whether they have the GT in front or not, its just quicker to not type it out everytime.
BRILLIANT

Samsung Galaxy J700P Custom Rom

Dears,
Does anyone tried a custom rom for samsung galaxy J700P ?
No.
No one has root yet, no custom roms
We need a custom recovery first and I have no idea if anyone is even working on one

No You Don't need a custom recovery to install a custom rom to the J700P as long as u have used the current root method for the J700P then you can install Flashfire and install anything!
Past stock? Has any boost phones ever had a c7stom rom. Everyone seems to forget the P models . Or can't get the Sprint/Boost. I could see that its prepaid and we get new phones. But some hang on to these midrange phone s fir a year or 2. IDK where the DEV is but since there's is Sprint compatible or the same can we get a rom.

Installing custom rom! not a noob

So I have installed roms on other devices in the past using twrp but this is my first time owning a samsung galaxy s6 I have the sm-g920w8 virgin mobile canada version and was wondering if there is a marshmellow twrp and how I might go about rooting it as I have yet to see any new/fresh roms for this device thanks in advance. I previously had a zenfone 2 and it was easy to root/ install custom recovery and rom. I have searched the forum but I am not finding any luck for my model at all. The more I search the forum I get annoyed as I am so use to installing roms by now but samsung has made it harder to do so. Sincerly Mark

To Root or not to Root S6 Edge SM G925F 6.0.1

Hi
Ive just bought a S6 Edge SM G925F on 6.0.1 and was wondering what benefits i would get from rooting
The phone still has warranty until june 2017 so im unsure weather to root or not
Cheers
If you dont know what the benefits are you should not root as you will not benefit from it.
What I mean is that its probably not worth the risk if you have to ask because you dont know anywhere near enough to use root to its potential.
If you want to get some nice Features like Xposed, Titanium Backup or Flashing custom Roms, root. If you are satisfied with your device as it is, let it unrooted. I rooted too and i love to test out new custom roms like Alexis Rom, Noble Note 7 Port.
Undoubtedly.
Android is meant to be rooted ^^
Could someone point me to the correct root tutorial
Thanks

Boot into download mode, open odin, flash cf-auto-root OR Flash twrp instead of cf-auto-root and then install supersu.zip from there

Galaxy J7 Sky Pro (SM-S727VL) Stock Firmware

I found the stock firmware for the galaxy j7 sky pro(SM-S727VL) message me for link. Also looking for a root method and Google Frp bypass for the galaxy j7 sky pro. Any help much appreciated.
we need this!

here you go

Looking for a google frp bypass also if anyone knows how.
Ok the past week iv pulled all nighters trying to root this s727vl. I have also did ton of of research and have found out the root method for 6.0 marshmellow and how root is obtain has drastically changed. I have easily rooted every device iv owned from 2.0 to 4.4. What if found out is the device is easier to root than 4.4 and 5.0. The problem is that the 2 root methods are not currently possible at this time because custom recovery is needed to flash supersu.zip. twrp and cwm have not made a compatible apk for our device. And the second root method which requires eng.boot don't have one for our device's either. The good news is that twrp is completely open source and there is a guide here on the forum on how to recompile it for your device. I will be giving it a shot. Dont wast your time with iroot, kingroot, srsoot,towel root, unlock root, tunesgo, and about 5 more that i cant remember the name.. i will keep everybody posted on my recompiling twrp. It's going to be a awhile though.

Any luck yet I sure hope so I've been doing the same thing trying to find a root or recovery I got another one just like the ones were working on that I dropped and cracked the glass so I'm going to use it as as the test subject.
Wondering if you had any success rooting this one. Honestly, I'd just like to use the mobile hotspot.

Hey,
Do you still have the link to the factory firmware for the sky pro?
I am having a weird problem with my new phone, if you care to look at my only post you can read my description. If not I could use that firmware. Mine must be corrupted or some **** because factory reset wont fix my problem. Thanks!

I've been studying this phone for a while and waiting for a root method. TWRP would be ideal, but it doesn't seem to be a priority for those with the talent to do so. In my research today, I may have stumbled upon what appears to be a means to root this phone (or any phone). Instead of looking around for "root", try instead to study and learn about Magisk. It seems to be the new preferred way to root newer devices. TWRP would make it easier, but there are instructions to use the stock firmware download and the Magisk app to achieve root for practically any device. Even if there is no TWRP available.
From what I can gather, Magisk modifies the stock Boot.img file. Once modified, it will allow you to switch root on and off much like we have in the past. It also has the added benefit of "hiding" from the OS, so the OS is not as likely to become aware of being rooted. It remains rooted even after Updates.
Have a look at this link for a better explanation and a basic how-to:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/how-to-install-magisc-twrp-locked-t3599926/page2
I post this so that the rest of you can try it as well, hopefully soon so we can compare notes and hopefully leverage each other's success. I'm downloading the Stock firmware now. This is NOT a "run a magic program and it roots my phone idiot-proof method", but it doesn't seem to be overly-complex either. Good luck and please report back.
