How do I root a device (From beginning to end)??

[Defender1970]

Hi all, first off let me say it's about time I signed up for these forums. I've owned Android devices exclusively for well over 5 years now.

I'd like to root my aging Galaxy Tab 10.1 but honestly, even the YouTube videos aren't getting me where I feel I'm smart enough about it to go ahead with it.

I consider myself tech savvy but of course anytime you're about to mess with the OS of a device, you just want to make sure you're doing it correctly.

So, I would like to root my device and then I'd love to be able to find some ROMs and whatnot to help breath some life back into this aging device.

Thanks in advance for answering this probably super redundant question.

Peace, Defender

Hi Defender, welcome to Android Central.

Well honestly it looks like you have lots of reading to do. I would read and read and read until you are comfortable with the whole process.

Check out the Tab forums: Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com

and here How to Root Galaxy Note 10.1 Using Odin

Beware though, once you start flashing roms, you can't stop

Goodluck
