What are the first things you would suggest doing with the phone after rooting a Galaxy S23?
For example, things to make the rootet phone more secure and less bloated?
for less bloated you don't even need root. just use adb and use universal adb debloater app. on the other hand, root is bad from a security perspective
Backup EFS first. You don't want to lose IMEI then having no way to restore it.

If you root you can't use Samsung Pay ever again! Make sure that is something you don't need. I rooted my phone because I want to use dual SIM simultaneously with the SD card, that's only possible with root/custom ROM, because Samsung blocked this in their latest updates.
Then, if you've installed TWRP (recovery) you can backup your complete phone (NAND backup) and experiment with different ROMs and settings (like Xposed).
And before you root or start flashing anything; make sure you have the correct model nbr.
Dr. Ketan's ROM is as close as possible to the original firmware (which is what I wanted). But you can debloat or add options with his ROM tool.
Before you do any of that, why don't you just set the phone up and use it as is for awhile. You can debloat it with adb commands without rooting it.
Only use opensource apps.
Which ROM are you using for dual sim and SD card?
If you "believe" it's called root just stay away from rooting for now ( I don't want to be rude)
Rooting is not something a newbie should just go ahead and do.
Setup the Phone first and use it for a while, think about what you dislike while this time and come back to search for solutions.
I have a Galaxy Tab A (SM-T580) WI-FI only tablet that was recently upgraded to Android 8.1.0 by Samsung. I know that many people root their devices to gain complete control over the device and that rooting will allow you to remove the Samsung Bloatware on the device. That being said i wonder if there's a way to remove this bloatware short of rooting the device? If not, I'm concerned that the rooting methods might not be compatible after my tablet was recently updated. I'm also concerned about the complexity of the rooting process as I'm not technically savvy and the last thing I want to do is turn my tablet into a brick.
My main concern is that there is so much bloatware on this device that I never use that now I'm unable to install new apps that I do want without removing other apps I do use and want to keep. Note that I have already moved the apps I can to my SD card and I'm still short on application storage.
Can I please get some advance on what direction I can take? Thanks.
Play store has some stuff . . .

OK several points. Firstly there is no point in removing system apps, you will gain absolutely nothing.
It's better to simply disable them and you don't need root to do this.
Second you cannot install apps to the system partition unless you have root so in no way is this affecting you installing other apps.
Lastly it is highly unlikely that you will turn your device into a brick by rooting . It's not really possible as it's simply a software hack that is easily removed.
Your best tool is research before you root.

I'm not sure if Exynos can be root as of now...If you are on the SD version, there are some posts here that show how to unlock the BL, install magisk and SU...but honestly, it's best to wait until some foolproof method is out...whatever be the case, you will lose Knox and other Knox related stuff
Exynos can be rooted I believe, but ask yourself why you want or need to root your phone.
I've had various Android phones since around 2009, and this is the first Android device I've owned that I haven't immediately rooted, and don't immediately see the need to. Previously, I mainly rooted because I wanted XprivacyLUA, Viper4Android and AFWall (amongst other things like Titanium Backup and Root Explorer but they're the main three). However, in the 3 weeks I've had this phone I've not really missed them. I use Netguard for a firewall, and the DAC appears to be good enough to not really need Viper. XPrivacy is a miss, but not one I can l can't deal with.
I'm not ruling out rooting it at some point in the future. I've just decided it's not required right now. Especially as I've started using Samsung Pay and that would immediately and permanently be lost once Knox is tripped.
Any advice on how to go about this safely would be most appreciated. I want to find a load to remove bloatware and Samsung nosieware.
Cheers,
Evan
If you dont want to take ANY risks, its possible to root with KingoRoot (not KingRoot). [i always use this on other people's phones as i cant afford to risk damaging their devices]
You can also try rooting your device using Odin, as it's a samsung.
You're porbably not in warranty, so if you want to do it the normal way, flash a custom rom (twrp or ofox), then flash the magisk.zip to obtain root.
Look up some tutorials, its not super complicated.
I reside in Africa. I got a Samsung Galaxy A33. I need help/advise. I want to uninstall some inbuilt apps, am unsure if that's the right name for apps that came with the device on setup and I also want to use some apps that requires root.
I know little about rooting and 0% about flashing with magisk but am first at learning, I also know little about flashing with odin.
If there is a way to uninstall system apps and inbuilt apps without having to root or to just root the device temporary, please share that info with me about that kindly.
The device is perfect condition with no software errors, I already know that my warranty will be void if I root or unlock my Samsung a33 bootloader.
