it depends on how you rooted your phone in the past.. but basically yes.

[Q] Just a few questions..

Hi,
I just baught myself a Google Nexus 7 and coming from Apple's locked iOS from an iPad Mini I want to know a few things..
1. What are the latest Android version for stock Nexus 7? 4.22 or 4.3?
2. I want to root my Nexus 7, are there any beginner guides on how to do it or is there any complete packages available for download?
3. I'm on a Mac can I as easily root my Nexus 7 as if I were on a Windows machine?
4. I want the latest, speediest and most stable ROM where all stuff works. Can you point me in a direction of which to choose from?
Well I guess that's it for now.
Thanks again.
Rasmus, Denmark
The latest version is 4.3
To root check the stickies here, there are some guides. They should work for Mac too, because you just use fastboot to unlock the bootloader, flash the recovery and then you root via flashing a zip in recovery
There's no best rom. Just check some roms in the Dev section and check the bugs. If there are (nearly) no bugs and you like the interface/additional features flash it. Otherwise use the stock rom, it's great too :good:
The obvious question is, why do you want to root? Do you need it? Because if you are just a beginner, you should better read much and then (if you still need root) root it

Thanks for your help and answers. I have owned a couple of android devices in the past, but that was a couple of years ago and then I used fastboot
Thanks again.

Just one question more. If I choose to flash and root a stock image (4.3). Will I be able to receive OTA updates from Google in the future or do I have to root the device again upon an update?
Thanks.

I guess it's better to be on stock rom without any modifications to prevent issues with the updates
And as far as I know it's impossible to update on an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery, but I'm not sure

I have been able to take an OTA while rooted and running a custom recovery. It should be no problem.

Yes, I'm running 4.4.2 kitkat with x-note 11 rom installed and it works just fine. It's the same just once you get kitkat there's no turning back to 4.3.

Once you root, Knox is tripped on Kitkat. There is currently no way to fix & you need root or a custom recovery to install custom roms......

AFAIK, Xposed doesn't work YET on TW based roms.
I don't know if will work on S5 with non-TW roms though.....
I've been using Xposed on my rooted S5 with 4.4.2 for more than 6 months without issue so far.

Yes, yes, and yes.. Just don't try to go crazy with 50 modules... It works if you work it.

AFAIK, Xposed doesn't work on TW based Lollipop roms.
(see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811)
It does work though on Jellybean roms (Android 4.x).
I have _Alexndr's Devbase rom installed (Lollipop) on my S5 and it works very well.
I even have it deodexed.
I'm using rooted touchwiz 4.4.2 and xposed works just fine......There are issues with touchwiz 5.0.+ at the moment... .

Some variants of the Tab E do not yet have custom recovery so this root method is supposed to be used for them but will work for other Tab E Variants. I personally use a Tab E Verizon which has no custom recovery yet.
Sm-t377v
I have a Sm-t377v running 6.0.1. Will this work for that?
If not would you know of another root for this one? I can't find anything myself...although I'm new to rooting devices lol so I may just be blind.

No you are not blind I have an SM-T377V and it is not rootable on marshmallow 6.0.1:crying: also on lollipop some people get bricked when they use this method.
My brother asked me to root his device, he has T377V, is there still no recovery created for the Verizon version?

tried a lot of versions of the KingoRoot and King Root apk's and zero have even come close to rooting. T377AUCU2BQK2 build Just updated to android 7.1 two days ago. I tried months ago even while it was still on 6 something.
Ideas?
Much Respect!

Any AOSP ROM for the Exynos S8?

I really want to root and install a stock ROM on this and I was also wondering if there were one click root tools like there are for Nexus devices.

In answer to the name of the post, yes there is lineage os for the exynos variant but it is in alpha stage right now, calls aren't working and it might be a while till you get a daily driver.
As for one click root, I've never heard or come across any. Current methods of root include, using Odin to flash chainfires cf-autoroot, or flash twrp and install supersu or magisk.

Can you help direct me to some instructions? I've come from Nexus devices mostly and I remember them being very easy to root so I just don't wanna mess this up.
