There are several tutorials to root a Galaxy Tab s2 all with its own root file. However, no website includes a root file for the SM-817v! There are root files for every other model out there except the SM-817v
Adding "SM-817v" to the Google search only returns junk results
So, How do I root this model of Galaxy Tab s2
You should try Magisk.
Don't know how to post a link in xda-app, but search xda for Magisk and you'll find what you need.
You'll have to get into the topic a bit, so expect some reading. But it's worth it, I promise.
Rooted my Tab S2 SM-T815 recently with this method and it worked perfectly.

Your carrier has locked the bootloader on your device. It's impossible to flash anything without soft bricking it

sorry if this was already brought up.. i didn't have much time so i did some brief searching and didn't really find too much... some posts looked like you would have to wipe your phone just to root it and i was hoping that ain't the case...
help is appreciated!!! thanks !!

Sorry this is absolutely the case, what firestorm942 didn't explicitly mention is that in order to be rooted at all on lollipop, you have to start from rooted KitKat. To see the full process see my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63639949&postcount=2
Yes the process wipes your phone at one point and yes this the only way to be rooted on lollipop

The problem is kingroot copies all your personal data (including your IMEI) and sends it to a server in China. I recommend against it since I don't trust that for a second. Supersu is known to be safe, stable, and effective

Actually, yes there is
You can accomplish it even if you've already updated to lollipop
Sometimes the correct way of doing things takes a little more effort than the easy way out, but why do something if you don't want to do it right?

If you're on KitKat, root with towelroot. If you're on lollipop use Odin to go back to KitKat then root with towel root, and then you can use the keep root method to update to rooted lollipop

Hi There,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (Model SM-T710) and I'm trying to root it. I was able to get it done using KingoRoot via my PC but every time I restart my device, It tells me I need to re-root it.
The Kingo SuperUser app that installs after my device was rooting also is having trouble working with Titanium Pro.
Could someone point me in the direction of the most stable way to Root my device? I would even be willing to donate some funds for someone to walk me through.
My goal is to have Titanium Pro well with my rooted device.
Thanks in advance!

Just follow the instructions given to install twrp.
If you need to know how to use odin, search on google there's tons of guides.
Once you have twrp installed flash the file below with twrp to gain root.

Ensure you uninstall Kingroot and kingOroot root before hand.

I'm not talking about the app. I was talking about the root binary. Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/aquos-crystal/general/temp-root-306sh-t3129456. Just use the root file. You can also use King root because it uses the same exploit.

That is still not going to work on "THIS" phone with "THIS" lollipop bootloader.
I think you are mixing what worked on other phones (maybe s5) with this particular s5. I'm pretty sure a dev has already thought of and tried that, and if it really worked, you would have been heard about it.
Correct I have the att variant of s5 with 5.1.1 and sadly no root on it as of yet, I can say that kingroot team is researching it as it is close to the top of list for people requesting research, hopefully they will figure it out soon if you happen to have the att variant of s5 and have not gone up to 5.0+ yet then i suggest that you do not do so otherwise your going to have no root and no way to get it yet.
King root
My phone is -
SM-G900A AT&T
Lollipop 5.0 G900AUCU3BOC4
I just used KINGROOT king481.apk
It did take a while and at the ATT splash screen it stop for a few minutes.
Next it rebooted three times........ Root Checker now says it is Rooted.
I have rebooted and turned the phone off 5 times without issue.
Also Titanium Backup Pro installed detecting that the phone was now rooted.
I hope this helps

So...I guess it technically works. I flashed this linked file with modified version of Odin then ran root.bat. Samsung phone info app says i have root and i even get the prompt to deny or grant access to apps but have yet to actually get one of the apps requiring root to open. Flashfire has been sitting on loading for about 10 minutes now. One thing for sure is, it is SUPER laggy. I.don't recommend it. Not worth it in my opinion, ill probably go back to MM if i want root.
There was "Onion root" for 6.01 in the T-Mobile area. Has anyone tried that? Will it work for this Nougat test kernel?
no any root work in Nuggets

Onionroot is just an automated process to flash the engboot.

buggy bout the same as mm
I guess if someone required payment we can consider it lol
But please ......
Could someone consider providing a full system dump from AT&T Galaxy S7 Edge with N ?
I'm told that this should be able to be done without root using a root explorer app or with an abd pull command
We would greatly appreciate the files in order to get VoLTE and proper CSC for our SM-935F devices!
We do not have proper CSC
Thank you!!!!
I knew from beginning this was a BS post to gain thanks etc his account is disabled any moderator please disable and delete these threads he made in s7 news and here.
Root without an unlocked bootloader ends with N. The wise saw this coming. I doubt anyone will "leak" the tools to unlock bootloader. I'm staying on MM with exposed and lucky patcher.

im rooted using n eng kernel
I just ran across this root method which appears not to use the engboot and apparently works on the AT&T SGS7 edge. I have yet to read the rest of the thread, but it has been mentioned in a couple Android sites.
As the title suggests the question is it wise to root the tab now like what is scenario of custom roms and kernels??
Please reply soon.....
depend on your device since the development of custom rom are less for tab s2. i dont event root any of my device nowadays.

Not a big fan of Magisk but I believe it is worth it to root any device. Granted, you are voiding your warranty and risking losing out if your device gets bricked or fails for some reason. But I like having the control and added access that rooting gives me. Plus the custom ROMs usually provide less bloat and added features that make them preferable over stock.
In the end it is a matter of personal preference.

It will detect the root but it doesn't cause any issues. However if Samsung does release another update (don't hold your breath waiting for it), you might not be able to apply it through OTA. Also, be sure to search for and use the correct method of rooting for your device. Trying to root incorrectly will give you nothing but problems and may brick your device. I have the T813 9.7" so I can't direct you to the procedure for your device.
Bottom line - read, read and read some more and be certain you understand the procedure and risks before you take the next step.
