Rooted 4.3 as per this details

Please read the instructions clearly and flash, i will not responsible for any Brick/failures on your Tablet.

Stop by and thanks to @[NUT] without him we don't have the root now.

Copy Paste from his Forum and modified for SGP351

Requirements:

Special features:


In the following guide I suggest you use an external SDCard but that's just good practice, you can use your internal storage or even an USB OTG storage device in TWRP if you like to install, that's no problem!... If you are modding and the likes, best is to have an external sdcard, just for safeties sake.

for SGP321\SGP311\SGP312 click Here


SGP351: How to update to 10.4.B.0.569::

  • For SGP351: Download the files here (SGP351 latest 4.3.zip and SGP351_10.4.B.0.569_US Stripped.ftf), save it somewhere you remember; (mirror)
  • Put 'SGP351 latest 4.3.zip' on (the external) SDcard1;
  • Put 'SGP351_10.4.B.0.569_US Stripped.ftf' inside the Flashtool/firmwares folder;
  • Create a backup of your phone in CWM or TWRP and don't forget to backup the contents of 'SDCard0';
  • Flash 'SGP351 latest 4.3.zip' in Philz, after flashing the ROM,
  • do not reboot but go back to the main menu, then go to reboot->power off;
  • Flash everything in 'SGP351_10.4.B.0.569_US Stripped.ftf';
  • Reboot to system without clearing (dalvik-/)cache.


The first boot will be considerably slower and after a long wait at the boot animation you will see Android optimizing the apps on your phone.

I have done this myself, using this method and I have not found any problem yet, again! :fingers-crossed:

Enjoy! :laugh:

@`SBR` you can modify the guide, you won't be needing the supersu_fix for this ROM, your package will work just as good, the fix has been applied to the update 2 package :)

I'm a bit pressed for time and can't support all devices at once with these packages, so exactly THIS is why i created the DIY thread, so people like you can do the same and help a fellow user get a proper rooted ROM with dual recovery :good:

Dropbox links are inoperative due to too much traffic generated, so i can't (better we can't) download the files required to root XTZ (SGP321).

There's a possibility to upload them to another service, like MEGA or GDrive?

Uploading to MEGA, so when it's done (cca. 20 minutes) I will share the link here!
