Newbie questions! Please help! - Galaxy Tab General

I am new with my Galaxy Tab and with all this and...
1. I was wondering if this would be the best way to SIM UNLOCK and/or VOICE CALLS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876178&highlight=unlock+sim
2. Does rooting create lag? Do I need to root with the lag-fix? Or can I just apply the lag-fix after rooting?
3. If a galaxy tab is rooted, is it possible to unrooted by deleting all and returning everything to factory reset?
4. What does flash and reflash means? What is it for?
5. What are ROMs for?
6. What are boots?
7. Whatever you do to your Galaxy Tab (Flash,ROM,VOICE,ROOT,etc) is it possible to factory reset it and put it back to normal how you bought it?
Thanks in advance!
Btw, is a T-mobile tab

Few questions from a Fellow Note 3 User!!!

Hi,
I had a few questions about flashing my phone and potentially updating to kitkat.
I would appreciate having my answers in same form as questions thanks!! (sorry for being so picky)
1. I heard Kitkat does not allow you to backup apps or modify folders in the sdcard is there a work around to this? (the reason is because I use a program called Es Explorer to move files from folder to folder.)
2. I have a Canadian note 3 (SM-N900W8) I want to get the S5 layout and features such as Ultra Saving Mode onto the Note 3 without losing any of the key features from Note 3 like s pen functionality. Is this possible if so please leave a guide to performing this
3. To get the S5 features onto my Note 3 will I have to first update to Kitkat or can I stay at 4.3,?
4. Will I be able to get OTA software updates on my Note 3 even after I port the S5 features?
5. Before I do any flashing or modifying How can I BACK EVERYTHING ON MY PHONE to ensure NOTHING IS LOST.
6. Finally, will I have to first unlock my phone to flash or mod it?
THANK You!
I appreciate your time.
You can get all of that by flashing ported s5 rom like the RC elite rom , and no your device will be modified so no OTA but you don't need it anyway
Before flashing backup your stock rom in the custom recovery so nothing get lost
Make sure to backup your IMEI before flashing anything.
Go to Play Store and enter 'IMEI Backup' to search for IMEI backup app.
1. It works perfectly fine for me on KitKat
2. Yep the rom link and guides is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-canadian-v17-rcelite-t2840523 (imo the rom is very snappy and good! All the full S5 features and look without compromising on SPen functionality )
3. You have to flash kitkat first
4. Well you can't get OTA updates for the Note 3 firmware, but you will get OTA updates for the rom!
5. You can do a nandroid backup, copy all files to computer or backup with KIES 3
6. Nope

[Q] My NOTE 3 does not sign in

Hello.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 LTE and rooted it. I saw a thread how to get the Galaxy S5 Settings list view. I downloaded the SecSettings.apk for the Galaxy Note 3. I installed it into system/priv-app and gave it the correct properties. Then I deleted the old SecSystem.apk and odex and rebooted my phone. Just so that you know, I have a handwriting protection for security which was preinstalled from Samsung. After turning it on again everything looked normal. As I am about to sign in with my handwriting My Phone does not log in. If i try to put in the pin, no keyboard pops up to put it in. Only Google speach recognition opens and it loads and loads and loads. I can not use my phone to change anything, because I can not log in. My phone is not turned in to debugging mode and first it says settings stopped and then it says android.phone stopped and then it says systemui.xxxx stopped. For a second i can then see my homescreen. Then it locks again. I have important pictures I dont want to loose. How can I save them before flashing my phone with odin and wiping everything? What can I do(anything)? Can I put a new rom on there without loosing any data or how do the tools work on kies. My phone is locked and i wont be able to unlock it. Reasons are given. I am about to cry. I dont have enough money to buy another one and I dont want to loose my pictures. PLEASE HELP. URGENT
PS: Ask me any question if it helps you to solve my problem
Flash offical firmware. It will not wipe internal memory unless it stuck at samsung boot logo where you need to do factory reset from recovery. Or flash a custom rom

[Q] [G901F] backup of the tel

Hello,
I ordered a Samsung Galaxy S5 Plus G901F, so I'm waiting for it.
I wondered if there is a way to do a complete backup of it?
As I read that CMW Recovery was not 100% fiable, there is another way? maybe with adb? Or maybe it works with standard recovery ?
And also a way to save my IMEI?
I asked because maybe I will install Cerberus and try to send me an sms which wipe all to test if it's work well.
Thanks

I'm running a rooted stock rom but after I flashed back to NJ4 I LIST MY SD. The device recognizes it but will not mount and my WiFi is locked and disabled. I've reroot and reboot so much it almost does it automatically.

I can't find any specific lyrics for that build can you help me out please and good looking out!

Samsung Tab A7 SM-T505

Hi everyone, I have a Samsung Tab A7 (T-505) that does not allow me to unlock OEM to be able to Root it as it belongs to an association, therefore with Kies active from the beginning (witch cannot be disabled). Do you know another method, or do you know a method to be able to TOTALLY delete the software and restore it with other stock without factory blocks? Thanks to anyone who wants to help me.
