MobileVisuals Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I want to root my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. There are several guides online, like http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/504498/20130908/galaxy-tab2101-p5100-root-android422-jellybean-update.htm and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sO3y7JCqfc8 The first of these guides says that I need to install Android 4.2.2 first. I have Android 4.0.3. now. Do I really have to update the firmware before rooting the device? The second of these guides says that I need to install SuperSU. The link to that program has a link to a zipped file, which is damaged and can not be unzipped. So I wonder how I should proceed and which guide to follow?

John Dave Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 no there is not need to update your firmware for rooting !! Again there is one more question for you why you want to root your device if you don't want to flash any other firmware ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrizzyWizzy Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I also want to root my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. Just wanted to ask, will the files/apps in my tab be deleted if I do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dave Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Well @crizzywizzy no rooting your device doesn't removes all the files/apps in your tab ! Nothing will be deleted but its often recommended that you should make a backup of your data before proceeding, because if something goes wrong in the process of rooting your device then you always have the option to roll things back ! :) One more thing I was thinking as your tab4 is still new means you will be getting updates, so why do you want to root your device ?? Are you looking for some extra perks which came by once you root your device ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
