Wondering when xda will have section for s2???? Also hoping a dev can come up with a root method. I can test as I have a sm-t810.
Get in line behind the tab a.
OK have you tried the kingroot exploit in this section first?

Tried about 50 times, different versions..? No go....I don't care about knox. Was hoping for a cfroot method.
Test 1.
please be as specific as possible if it fails, screenshots or vids are best.
smt810_cf-autoroot_v1
sm-t810_stock_recovery
I flashed 1st file, all went well, but when i install supersu app, it says it needs to update binaries, but it fails
looks like the superuser app in system app doesnt have correc permisions???
Shouldn't need to install the superuser app. It should already be installed.
Root again and watch the process. Particularly watch to see if the system and cache partition successfully mount or fail.
This is why I need screen shots and vids.
OK, i will try again with pics.....they do mount, but the superuser app in /sytem/app doesnt have proper permisions...that make sense?
Can you post a screen shot of root validator so I can see what got installed.
If the partitions mount as you say then there may be a problem with the supersu script.
You should not have to install any superuser app or update the binary as the exploit uses the latest binaries.
I will be turning in for tonight so if you can get the screen shots of the process where it mounts the partitions and where it installs the supersu files and a screen shot from root validator that will give me something to look at tomorrow.

Ok the supersu script didn't run. I will fix that tomorrow.
Good night.
Test 2.
Watch for the supersu script running in the process. You should see the supersu installer script run after the partitions get mounted.

Check with root validator for root.
its good to know you got 5.1.1 Root for working for T810...
are you going to do on T710 as well?
Thanks
I will be uploading versions for all models with their own threads now I know things are working.
Gonna update twrp to 2.8.7.1 too.
It was displayed in portrait mode. Touches were mapped as if TWRP was running in landscape mode.
Is XAR for North American Devices ?
Are there any drawbacks to installing the 5.0.2 XAR version ?
Because I need both Root and TWRP..
Can I use the SamFirm tool on this forum ?
Thanks.
Good to see you back! Any plans to work on twrp??? I would love to test
