Hi:

I have an XTZ and decided to get this tablet over a newer one such as a Samsung S3 9.7" as I *much* prefer the 16:9/16:10 aspect ratio over 4:3 and I couldn't find anything else. I have a couple of questions about it.

1) If I never will use LTE, is there any reason to get the SGP771 over the SGP712? This is from a usability/issues standpoint as well as rooting/roming/etc. I will most likely run stock but I like having root so I can do what I want with it (e.g., my XTZ is rooted stock and I'm just fine with that).

2) I've just begun reading these forums but I see references to newer firmware than I see download threads for on this site. Is it just totally stock firmware or is there some other site or file host that has newer rooted, stock images? I know about I saw a reference to "mega" but I have yet to figure out what that is and I see tools like XperiFirm over in the cross-device section. It's been a 2 years since I last did anything to my XTZ (it's still on one of the early Lollipop releases :eek: ) so maybe I already learned all this and forgot :confused:
