    Post [ROM][SM-T510][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 17.1 for Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019)

    Okay, thanks. So apparently it wasn't something that I did. Thankfully I knew about using TWRP from my old days.

    BTW, I don't want to sound ungrateful. Despite the (self-induced?) problem that I had installing the ROM, I'm grateful to @Magendanz for providing it.

    Post [ROM][SM-T510][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 17.1 for Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019)

    After I used an Uninstaller to uninstall a core application, I got into a boot loop. I was able to do the Odin flash procedure again, so I was able to recover. But since TWRP automatically started after three loops, it occurred to me that it would have been a lot easier to recover if I had...

    Post [ROM][SM-T510][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 17.1 for Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019)

    Okay, thanks to a post by Zippy Dufus I realized that I was in a boot loop. (That is, TWRP didn't auto-start. A race condition somewhere? Does having an external SD card affect this?) So then I had to read about how to "hard" reset a T510. Vol Up + Pwr got me into TWRP. But it's been a long...

    Am unable to get Odin to flash the ROM. Update: Problem solved. (Doncha hate when this happens? I guess running thru the steps in a forum gets one thinking.) My solution below. ------------------------------------ After starting the process (running through the list of partitions), Odin gives...

    Post How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

    No, I haven't had time to play with rooting lately. I still would like to root it tho.

    Post How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

    Thanks. I did see SP Flash Tools mentioned and I did take a look at it. While I've rooted before, I'm trying to get my head around a Scatter File. Everything I've read so far - well, almost everything - says that I need TWRP to get Magisk installed. But if you think it can be done via SP Flash...

    Post How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

    I found a website called unofficialtwrp.com. It has a TWRP for the MediaTek 6739, running Oreo 8.1, with 16/2 GB. That's exactly what the Nuu Mobile R1 has. So, hopeful that this would allow me to root my R1, I tried it. (Short version: Didn't work.) I already had ADB installed and could talk...

    Post How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

    I contacted Nuu Mobile Support and they were kind to send me the MediaTek USB drivers for the R1. It was a two step process to get the driver installed for ADB. But now I have access to the R1 via ADB. I read here on the forums that I can boot TWRP via fastboot, and not risk ruining/corrupting...

    Post How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

    More data for TWRP'ing So, I see that one needs an image of the OEM ROM to compile TWRP. I found two sites on the web that claim to have the ROM. (Before the R1 was officially released.) Sounds sketchy. Will try to get an image from Tech Support. In the meantime, I found that the bootloader...

    Thread How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

    I just bought a Nuu R1 Rugged Phone. It has Oreo 8.1.0 on it. It is an "unlocked" phone. But I don't know if unlocked refers to the phone carrier or to the boot loader. (I'm thinking phone carrier.) The last I rooted my tablets was Android 5, which required using a custom script that a dev...

    Post [CAT S41] Root + recovery ?

    Someone asked CAT on Twitter if CAT would be willing to sell a Rooted S41 for, like, $30 more, without warranty coverage for bricked phones. (No loss to CAT that way. A win-win since they would make money.) CAT said Not Interested.

    Post ZenPad S Root achieved

    I'm still running 4.7.1 rooted. (Waiting on someone to write up - or make a video of - a foolproof step by step method to upgrade before I try.) I started by pruning the ASUS image .zip file, removing apps that I didn't want. Then I used Link2sd to freeze other apks. And DisableServices to kill...
