Didnt know there was an ND5. There wasnt even an ND5 when I downloaded the kernel source code from samsung. And nope, There like 2 knox files in the entire firmwares which is just left behind crap I believe. Absolutely does not give you a knox bootloader and crap tho. Do make sure your tablet is a T230NU model and not just a T230 model.

Thanks a lot for this. So if I'm rooted and want to install system updates I would first backup data to sd card via titanium ,(or to pc?) , then factory restore via settings, Odin with this firmware, install updates, then vroot + terminal supersu, then restore backups.... correct? I'm still trying to figure out what bloatware is safe to remove...a guide on how to clean a out of the box tab 4 7.0 would be greatly appricated....

Will this Root my T230NU?

Hi, I am new to the Android market and I was wondering if this "stock" image will root my Samsung Galaxy 4 T230NU.

I am a formerly iDevice owner and I am quite familiar with Jailbreaking.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Ed,

I'm kind of new as well however I can tell you that this process will not root it. In my case, because I updated the software I had to use the stock Rom in order to downgrade and then root it. ShinySide explains the.. Rooting procedure in another post

I just used these links to download the firmware and they worked great. Mega took 1/3 as much time to pull from as Sammobile. Thank you Shinyside! You are awesome. If I wasn't a broke college kid I'd would def donate.

So I rooted my Tab 4 7" and then decided to switch to Nexus 7 and sell my Tab 4. Both great devices but the specs and updates draw me to try Nexus after the Tab. Anyway, I went to Sammobile to get the Stock rom and inadvertently ended up with the Nook version. OOOPS. Had to reflash but the second firmware I downloaded from Sammobile (at about 1 hour each, ugh) kept failing. Even after wiping the Cache and resetting I could not flash with Odin. Tried placing the image on the SD and installing in Recovery and still no luck. Then I turned to the ONLY source for self support of Android and found ShinySide with the stuff I needed. Downloaded with the Mega link which took 20+ min instead of an hour and it flashed straight away and my Tab 4 is back to being a Tab 4 instead of a Nook. Just wanted to give props to ShinySide for his efforts on behalf of the community and his patience to put up with noobs even when they do/say silly stuff!

Thank you so much!!

Ive been trying to download this file from all these crappy sites and they keep timing out thank you so much.

fidorulz · Apr 19, 2015

Thanks for the great info.

Will this restore stock recovery as well as remove root?

I need to return my device and thus need it fully stock

Thanks

What's the difference between the two images ND9 & NE2?

Actually they're both out of date (2014), take one of these instead (2015):

--SM-T230NU UEU0AOD1 XAR Region (USA)
--SM-T230NU UEU0AOD1 XAC Region (Canada)
--Nook Edition SM-T230NU OVU0AOG1 BNN Region (Nook Edition)

@ShinySide feel free to add these to the OP if you want

tried rooting and somone got stuck at loading screen with device name and powered by android screen....stuck there and got odin to load and apparently flash the stock but im still stuck...

greekchief · Dec 26, 2015

thank you

HI so i tried installing twrp recovery for my SM-t230NU And it got stuck in bootloop after trying to load custom recovery. Not a single Tar file md5 file worked until i got this rom and USED odin to install it. Odin just kept crashing on me till I got here and used the md5 file provided. It pushed the files while in download mode and rebooted and even still had all my apps and email going.

Again thank you so much and please reply if you have the same device and need help. I thought i bricked my Christmas present.
