Got the new software download today for my tab2 10.1 gt-5113. Android 4.2.2. My #1 reason for wanting update is the ability to add multiple user accounts. I was shocked to see that in the settings tab there is no option for user accounts. Isnt 4.2.2 supposed to have this? What is the best way for me to add multiple accounts?
 
Some searching seems to indicate that this is not supported on that device natively at this time. Most solutions require a custom ROM with that feature baked in, or an AOSP based ROM, such as Cyanogenmod 10.1 or 10.2 to access that functionality.
 
Keep in mind if you go with there custom Rom to be able to have multiuser account. Your loose the ability to use your IR blaster which is useful to control tv's and so on. The custom Rom they have is for gt2-5100 but will work on the p-5113 if you don't care for the IR blaster then go for it
