I think I may do this with the next big update coming soon. I was going to do it right after the last update but kicked the can down the road and decided to do it the next time. I think some people do it after every update though.

How hard is it to root and install custom firmware? I've got a p605 that came from Singapore. I've already updated the firmware with UK version. Is there a guide out there anywhere?

With Samsung products I tend to do this after every update, it takes time but I find things run better.

Its factory settings......it removes every thing on the device like it was out of the box

- Turn Off your Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 device.

- Wait for 10 seconds, Then move to the next step.

- Press and hold Volume Up key + Power key.

- Keep pressing the above keys until the Samsung Logo appears,Then release Power key only.

- When you see Factory reset / System Recovery menu on screen release the Volume Up Key.

- Use Volume Down key to select Wipe Data / Factory Reset option.

- Use Power key to confirm the operation.

- You need to use the Volume Down key again to select "Yes -- delete all user data"

- Use Power key to confirm.

- After performing the hard reset, Select Reboot System Now option, And confirm it using Power key.

- Now the phone will reboots, Wait for it to be fully on and then you can start using it.

Does this long process equal using the reset option in menu? Reason I ask is I've used that feature before with this.

Yes, the option is there in recovery in case you can't boot up the device.
