This is all well and good, but you are assuming that "everybody" has and can still afford (or in my case put up with) an MS based PC. Who was the ***** that decreed that ALL programming for an Android device REQUIRES a PC? I'm using a Galaxy Note 10.1 2017 tablet, and my 15 some-odd-year-old...

I finally went ahead with flashing the Temasek ROM for my sm-p600. And everything went just fine. No problems with the ROM or the gapps. And I've gotten into the habit from previous flashing (an Acer) to also flash the current SuperSU as well at the same time. I find that this prevents any...

I would suggest you get Folder Mount from Google Play. It will allow you to have full r/w access to your external SD card. I just rooted my sm-p600 as well. I'm still a bit paranoid about flashing the ROM even though I've done it dozens of times on my old Acer tab. 6 yr old+ and it runs...

Between the slow speeds offered, my mostly dead Windows laptop and my otherwise stellar network service the "free" downloads were a bust. I finally got the files from a site only required a one time fee for the premium d/l rates. It was the price that I was willing to pay for the stock...

All the free downloads that I tried, successful or not were corrupted. And 12 bucks+ for faster speed is really steep. I should still be able to flash the older file right from recovery? Thanks for the support.

1. Sammoble is not free. They offer broken d/l's for free. But paid by script otherwise. 2. Twrp 2.8.7 Is this the broken one? Or was it ROM specific?

Yep-done that for about two hours - Samsung provides a link to a pay site that wants amonthly fee subscription. But thanks for the insight... ;-Deano

I've finally found the firmware file, but the only site I can find wants a full month subscription to d/l. Anyone find the file elsewhere? for vs kot49h p600ueucob1. Thanks. ;D2

After much begging pleading, and tweaking usb drivers, I now have a rooted smp 600. I have also succeeded in installing the proper and current twrp recovery. And I have Temesky's(sp?)latest ROM waiting for flashing. What has me stumped is finding the right stock recovery and ROM for this...

Latest response from Samsung re: sm-p600: "As this is the 2014 edition tablet, the update might be released to the device in near future. However, we are unable to speculate when/if a software version might be available due to the fact that this might lead to inaccurate information. Once the...

Yes, I've read that one as well as many others. I'm still unclear about a few nagging issues: Since my p600 unit has the last official KK upgrade, do I need to worry about the read/write restrictions on my ext Sd card? And I right in thinking that will only happen with a new Lollipop ROM? At...

I've read and re-read several "how to's" about using Odin. I am itching to just root and flash a custom ROM rather than wait for the mythical Lollipop update to appear. I've rooted others tabs before, so the process is not entirely new to me. I just need a bit more info. Of course I recently...

I need to find a way to auto close & exit phone on hangup. I have severe arthritis and it is a PITA to have to back through several layers to screen lock. I need an easier way to exit phone calls. Since I usually make one call at a time an app/macro to set this would avoid a lot frustration...
