Hi,
Is there a way to root the new upgraded Tab s2 T819N or the T813N?
Just received it today and want to root but can't find not much on these new tab s2's
Thanks.
I don't have the device (yet), but the new Snapdragons are going to be rootable with Chainfire SuperSU zip when a custom recovery like TWRP is available.
The Galaxy A9 Pro has almost the same specs as the the new Tab S2: Same CPU/Chipset and same Android Version out-of-the-box (Marshmallow). I've seen a video on Youtube on how to root the Galaxy A9 Pro and maybe, just maybe, the TWRP for it is compatible with the newer versions of the Tab S2. Feel free to try at your own risk. I would risk it by myself, but as I've said, I don't have the device yet.
quite a challenge, any chance to brick the device ?
or just wait till a new custom recovery is out?

Hello. I am debating between the Galaxy Note 5 and Nexus 6P. I know that it is easy to root and install Roms on the Nexus, but I am not sure about the Galaxy Note 5. I believe there is root available now for the Galaxy Note, but will there always be root for at least 3 years? Also, will I be able to install custom Roms on it? It has an Exynos, so doesn't that make installing custom ROMS harder? I will have Verizon, which usually locks the bootloader, like they did with the Galaxy S4. Is it worth it to get the Nexus 6P over the Galaxy Note for being able to root and install ROMS? Thank you.
Why don't you spend some time reading the General and Android Development forums. The questions you have asked are so wide bit the answers are all there.
In short yes you can root but may have warranty issues. Yes you can install custom Roms. Rather than buy a Note with a locked Bootloader, buy one that doesn't but which uses the right LTE bands and doesn't have a locked Bootloader. Which one? Read the relevant threads!!!

My question is as follows. I have a Tab S2 9.7 with OJ4 and Android 5.0.2. I have installed TWRP on it and also rooted the Tab.
But now, I wish to flash a new rom on this tab, but how should I do that, do I need a new kernel, do I need another android version, what custom rom is adviced?
In the roms here, I see they are usually for OH7 with android 5.1.1
So please, is there somewhere a step-by-step "guide" to flash a new custom rom on the above mentioned Tab S2,
Many thanks in advance for any help!
Looking in development section there is not much custom ROMS for T81*? Tab s2 9.7 don't tell much and if you are on OJ4 bootloader I would recommend upgrading it to 5.1.1 one by just flashing firmware with Odin, you won't be able to downgrade I guess. The worst part about tab s2 it's cpu and the lack of custom ROMS because of samsung being a prick.
Hi guys
A few days ago I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 SM - T800, it is running version 6 software, and is painfully slow, I've heard rooting alows you to download the latest versions of android software, and would like to know if it is worth going down this route, and if tere is a auto rooted, thanks for your help.

welcome. one of my best things to do on XDA is pull out old devices that have cool hardware but outdated software and I flash them with new ROMs.
