Hi Guy, I saw the post How to root Tab S2 but SM-T815Y is not in that list. Can I use SM-T815 instead ?
Thank in advance :laugh:
CF autoroot.
Just use CF autoroot, under android development. I have exactly the same model and it worked flawlessly.

Yes but t815 firmwares are not compatile with t815y so it's a good question if root is the same

Root and firmware are 2 different things.
All that is required for the root exploit to work is that the kernel it uses is bootable and can mount the partitions.
Considering these devices are essentially the same, as long as it flashes and boots it should work.
The point is moot anyway as it's already confirmed to work.
Hi Guy, Confirm root my device by using CF Auto Root SM-T815
Thanks
Now is all about waiting for 5.1 update or any rom.
Any kernels or rom work on the Y variant?
Thanks guys.

Pretty much any custom rom/kernel should work even wifi only, but obviously no LTE.
Its up to you to try it out and make sure you have a backup.
Is there a specific root dedicated only to 815Y device?
I used the method specified here to root on my SM-T815Y device (Made in Brazil). While Odin has shown that everything had gone well and without fail, my tablet came into infinite boot (soft brick).
I've seen here that some people managed to root their "Y" devices, but personally don't know if they are equal in all locations where they are produced
Apparently the "Y" makes all the difference. Is there a specific root dedicated only to 815Y device? If there, would be grateful to know. Tks

Thanks for the reply Jimmy! The problem is the custom roms are "G800F/M/Y" there isn't an specific M version, it is a generic custom rom for F/M/Y. (I tried some of them and still detects it as 'F')
Using a G800M stock rom, I generated a TWRP flasheable file with Assayyed Kitchen, it worked, but the IMEI is gone and there is no signal at all (SIM not detected)
From what I've read, think I should have to flash bootloader and modem too, but Odin won't allow me that...

to create a rom with Assayyed Kitchen you need the stock of your device, I personally do not recommend it, I created a rom like that but the wifi was not activated

From my experience on my G800Y, I had no problem with any G800F rom, I even flashed the G800F firmware with no issues whatoever.
(What I suffered is from wifi issues and battery drainage on standby, but could well be the rom issue... Lineage 14.1).
Pd: What I did to flash the G800F was just using the AP only, I did nothing else, I was flashing a marshmallow rom, but didn't touched the bootloader, just left it at the lollipop one.

Thanks for sharing that info!
After flashing, could you unlock new LTE (4g) bands from your zone/region?
Also, if you go to "about phone" in "baseband version" does it changed from G800Y to G800F?

I don't know if it unlocks more bands (I'm not sure if you can do it by just flashing).

Is there a root method for sm-t377a running MM 6.0.1?
This is a Tab E (according to bootup splash screen). I have seen methods for other variants but the A variant seems to be a vague area.
If this is answered elsewhere, and I missed it please point me in the right direction. THANKS!

Any help would be appreciated
Sent from my Rooted Galaxy S7 EDGE on Android 7.0 Nougat, here's the instructions how to do it!
From what I have gathered the AT&T version SM-T377A is an Exynos CPU
http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=device&id=9353&c=samsung_sm-t377a_galaxy_tab_e_8.0_4g_lte
And according the the linked web site, the 377T (tmobile) version is also, where the 377P (sprint) is a Qualcomm CPU. (again, according to that linked web site above)
I have seen a few method for root on the 377P sprint variant, which I'm assuming will not work since its different architecture. I would guess that if a 377T method was available it would work on the 377A version? But with the extreme lack of information regarding this model - I would wait until someone confirms a working method.
Is there a root method??
Kingroot
I have the same problem I just can't root it. But a came across this article that pretty much says they have actually rooted a tab e sm t377a from at&t successfully with kingroot with or without pc. just Google costume recovery tab e sm t377a and choose the one from

I'm about to sell this tablet and get the sprint 9.6 unlocked. This thing is super slow running all this att stuff
I don't see how it could be incredibly different from the methods of rooting my at&t g950u snapdragon 835 s8. I still have locked bootloader and didn't trip Knox. No custom recovery is available or magisk but Xposed is working. Tab e t337a also has a locked bootloader w/ Knox. Really only difference is the processor architecture is exynos 3475.
yesssss!...what he said!!!!....fast forward 2 yrs later and still no root!

Hey
I have been searching for a clear answer but couldn't find any.
I am looking for guides and information about how I could possibly install a fresh, stock, "vanilla" version on my Note 8 N950N.
mine is the korean 256GB variant. I can't replace it and i wanted to get the 256GB variant anyway.
but some bloatware and also a few minor annoying "bugs" that are in the korean software is really disturbing me. it gets all confused because i am not really in/from korea. i get plenty of korean marketing **** and more...
I would like to have an international version. have it work seamlessly with my local networks, and also when i go abroad (i will be going to the USA in april).
Preferably i would like to get the Stock version, without rooting anything.
but if i have no choice i would install a custom rom which is the "cleanest" and the one most similar to stock.
please, can anyone write down clearly what are the steps I should do. I would be really thankful.
By the way, if it matters, I live in israel (if need to install a software or modem which are compatible.)
please, help!
thank you very much

Because you can't install F fw on a N without rooting, odin will not let you.
If you don't care about Samsung Pay or Secure Folder, twrp/root & install any custom F based rom you want. Or with root you can remove all the bloatware from your stock fw that you want. Or you can install Weta Rom base only. Weta Rom has the mod installer seperate so if you just want a stock unbloated rom Weta base would be a good choice. Weta is by far my favorite ROM so far & is what I have been running....with the Weta mod though.

2. then?
is it possible to root the phone and then install a stock firmware of an F variant? i am not interested in having a custom rom anyway...

Hey man, I tried doing exactly this on my 256GB SM-N950N with @_alexndr's DevBase ROM for the SM-N950F as you linked to above. Skipped the model check, however, I keep getting an error message during the installation process. @_alexndr stated, here in that his DevBase thread, that flashing the SM-N950F ROM on the SM-N950N isn't that straight forward due to different system partition size.
Please would you happen to know of the proper procedure to resizing my SM-N950N partitions so that I can flash the latest SM-N950F Oreo (don't like Android pie) DevBase ROM on it? Thanks in advance.

No, that's still Korean. I'm looking to install the unlocked and unbranded UK CSC on my SM-N950N. However, doing that breaks Bixby and other region-locked Samsung services as they detect my model number isn't in the region. So, I figured installing the SM-N950F ROM would resolve the region locking issue. Similar to how Tkkg1994's Iron Man ROM did it.

i believe by debloating a bit, the total amount of data written to the system partition was reduced to accommodate the N devices. or by pure fluke, maybe dev never intended to reduce data just for the N but just by removing some knox stuff and other unneeded stuff when rooted.

But if I change the CSC to the UK unlocked and unbranded, Bixby starts saying "Ok, I canceled it" to every single 1 of my commands.
Whereas with the Iron Man ROM, which virtually changed my device model number to SM-N950F, and the same UK CSC, everything worked fine. Unfortunately, it's development came to an end long before my Note 8 was even 1 years old.

So you're applying the same CSC patch to both ROMs? Or you mean that a CSC with the same name in Iron Man ROM and in a separate CSC zip behave differently?
My phone is running stock N950N base, with my USA T-mobile CSC patch and Bixby works correctly for a USA Tmobile phone because all its settings are in the CSC config files.

I think the bootloader is different for a non-US model, even if it is Qualcomm and thus ODIN will fail to flash the firmware for a different model. You may be out of luck on this one I feel, but maybe someone else has a way to get around this without root.

However i dont know if prince comesy odin would flash this or not.
Im leaning towards it would allow the flash but i dont know if the firmwares are cross compatible different device models so likely not.

I had done this on my international G965F S9+ and patched ODIN would let me flash it successfully, but the phone won't boot due to some "mismatch" error because of the some security checks Samsung put into Bootloader so you can only run matching CSC, Modem, AP files.
SMH...how much effort they put to restrict users from rooting and customizing their phone...so much for openness they had promised once when they hired the Cyanogen guy....
hi guys i am having a problem right now. my first note 9 was a n9600 snapdragon hk variant it was replaced by the vendor due to factory defect and was replace by a n960n single sim 512gb special edition model. my question is, is it possible to flash this with other official firmware to remove bloatwares from KTc to let say other exynos model? thank you in advance.

nope.( maybe with adb commands you can manualy disable/delete packages)https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access
if you root then you can do what ever but if not, then you are stuck. all 4 firmwares/carriers available for the n960n have bloat.And no you cant flash with odin an n960f stock firmware.
thanks @bober10113. sorry im kinda new in this things. another question. is it possible to change those language i see in samsung members and and other samsung apps? because right now all i see is korean language. is there anyway to change this to english/local language?

that would again be because of the csc installed.( one of the big 4 korean carriers. again if rooted wouldint be an issue to switch.
thank you again @bober10113 for giving me a clear picture. another question. is it possible to flash other n960n official firmware? right now i have a korean version of it. is it possible to flash it with n960n english?

well i am not sure if for example LG+ ( LUC ) would have more 'english' menus but you can try.... yeah LG has a carrier and they sell Samsung phones! my note 8 was a N950N LUC and on the box there was an LG+ logo !
past 2 phones have been Korean models that i specifically bought and have not had any issues or defects. I always root and it has been quite easy because it has the OEM unlock option right away, no need to wait 7 days.
also since i dont need knox or samsung pay, root is the way to go for me. so much fun i wouldint live without rooting.
i guess root is the way. i dont need knox and samsung pay either because its not usable in our country and no merchant here supports it. thanks @bober10113. and last can you put me in the direction of the guide to root my phone? again thank you so much.

you might to read through the thread. especially the last 10 posts or so.
hi again @bober10113. i have read the link you gave me. now my question is if i install twrp then install magisk will i be able to install local firmwares like n960f? and will this still trip knox? even though its a official firmware? thanks.

once twrp is installed all bets are off. knox will be tripped.
but this will allow you to install magisk disable or delete bloat.
if this is not enough then you will be able to download a new rom.
a rom is a custom firmware. so you could get a rom that has everything you are looking for. usualy all roms for exynos and for N960F/ds. they will also contain full english locale.
have a look in this thread and see which Rom suits you better:

if i install twrp is it possible to install one of the roms you posted without rooting? i believed some of them have root within the rom.

once twrp is installed, fone is considered as being modified. so might aswell take advantage of root.
And if i remember correctly to be able to boot into system, right now on the note 9 you need magisk to be flashed in twrp recovery.
so there issint really a way around it for now.( others can confirm or correct me on this).
alexander rom might be the exception though. read thread and post questions there if need be concerning a rootless install.
but magisk su has an 'su hide' feature where it will hide the system modification and root status from certain apps. you can even hide magisk from specific apps too. so if you need to install specific software that only runs in stock unmodified systems, it may very well work if these features are enabled correctly.
thank you ver much @bober10113. will check those threads. and go on with twrp magisk custom rom combo.
