Rom Upgrade for P585Y (Tab A 2016 with S-pen) - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Hi,
Does anyone know which ROM upgrade I can install on my P585 tablet? The stock ROM is fine but since my model is 16 GB, I can only install like few apps before it being full. I would like a newer android version. The tablet is now usd for my son's class. I have removed the S-pen since my so chewed on and lost the previous pen. No longer using the tablet for myself.

The GNote is a beast but help me open it up!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!
Hello, Guys I just got my GNote International GT-N7000 a couple days ago its already running hooked up with calling and data, Its a beast but I wanna get it running at full potential! I'm fairly well at the rooting and getting things going after I get a push in the right direction. I have been reading but what I have searched in the last two days has me more confused now then when I started.
Here is the Rundown on my Phone and its current firmware.
International Ver.
Gingerbread 2.3.6
Kernel
2.6.35.7 N7000XXLA4-CL886827
[email protected]#2
Build
GINGERBREAD.XXLA4
I have read that this phones firmware cannot be rooted then I read that I have to downgrade. Can someone help me out I would appreciate it a lot. I went to the place where it had the files I would need to downgrade to and there are 3 different XLA4 files I don’t know what one to use? This phone is an entire different experience than all the tablets I’ve rooted, and I have rooted many.
Here is what has me confused, I have to do things in this order because my firmware is newer her is what I have to do? - correct/
1 I have to downgrade to an earlier firmware correct? Which one - would be very helpful.
2 I see three different firmwares that show on the download page that is the same as mine XLA4. On this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 it has the following, which one do I need there's 3.
N7000XXLA4 --------------------2012 January-------N7000OXALA4----------------Germany-----------------------------Download (Non Wipe)
N7000XXLA4------------ 2.3.6---2012 January--------N7000DREKL1------------------Austria (3)-------------------------Download
N7000XXLA4--------------------2012 February--------N7000OJVKL1-----------------Turkey-----------------------------Download
So that’s 3 files, I don’t know which one to use, if anyone can help me out I would be very thankful. Why does XLA4 have so many files? I just need to know which download to use to downgrade my phone. So I can use some Roms and see what I like and CWM.
This is crazy I’ve never had this much trouble rooting something. I’m starting to get frustrated 2 days and don’t even know where to start, information has my mind going in circles. Especially the 3 different ROMs for XLA4 downgrade.
My Current devices I have rooted are the Asus Transformer Prime, HP Touchpad, and Nook Color, but in the past I’ve done rooting with the original GTab from Viewsonic -First tablet ever owned, Nook, Streak 7, ZTE warp, Galaxy Tab 10.1, HP Touchpad, Asus Transformer Prime – Driver and now the note. I have never rooted a phone before besides the ZTE Warp and it was very simple, one click deal, The GNote seems very complex unless I’m missing something here, and it is a different beast. So I really need some help with this bad boy, if you can help thank you very much.
if its new use odin to flash it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535025 3*Files Wipe N7000XXLC1_N7000OXALC1 Open Europe latest build + cwm kernel ant you will have all you need as base

Should I upgrade to Nougat?

Hello
I've been using rooted official Rom
1-I find it pleasing enough but I want to upgrade ... should I do it? what new features am I going to get besides the looks
2-the only reason I rooted my device is to be able to use multi windows on all apps... does nougat have that feature or will I have to re root my device? it's has been really hard for me to get this this before.
also I've been crazy with my previous phones ( Note 3 and Note 1 and Nokia N8) with Roms... but i didn't try them on S7 because I want the security of the samsung online features and the ability to find my phone and if it's wiped everything is wiped
thank you

Help with Asus Zenpad 8 Z580C. Flashed wrong firmware & apps aren't working?

Hi all.
I bought a Zenpad 8 about 2 years ago. It came with Lollipop and when Asus finally released the Marshmallow update, it bogged down the tablet, so I found this thread here and used the instructions to downgrade back to Android 5.0. The tablet ran much better, and I loved it.
Last month, I dropped it and broke the screen, so I ordered a new (seemingly identical) one from Amazon. When I got it, I saw that it shipped with the Marshmallow update already installed. I immediately went through the steps again to downgrade it, but when I went to reinstall all my apps afterwards, many of them were not available to me in the Play Store. They were listed, but said they were not compatible with my device. So, I did some digging.
Turns out that the model of the new tablet they sent (found in the SETTINGS/ABOUT menu) me is a P01MA, whereas the old one is a P01M. The product listing and the box & sticker for both tablets all say Z580C, but when I Google the P01MA number, it looks like that number is for the Z580CA version (with 4GB of RAM & 64BG HDD...which my device does not have). It's very confusing.
Anyway, the upshot is that I cannot get the new tablet to revert back to the stock firmware, both the manual and OTA updates from ASUS don't work (I've tried every file for both listed tablets - the Z580C & CA), factory reset goes right back to the 5.0, and many of my apps are still listed as incompatible. I'm guessing that the P01M and P01MA are slightly different hardware versions of the same tablet and I screwed up by assuming they were the same devices. I have looked, but I cannot find a RAW firmware specifically for the P01MA Z580C model. Any ideas on what I can do? I'm fine with either MM or Lollipop as long as all my apps work properly. Thanks!

Help with changing / upgrading Tab S2 T710 Nook version to Stock Firmware

Hi, I just purchased a used Tab S2 T710 from Ebay and received a really nice, like new tablet but it is has B&N Nook version of Android 6.01. At least for now I would like to change it to the stock Android 6 as the Nook version lacks much of the stock widgets and installs all the Nook stuff. Which I don't need or want.
I think I can just use Odin and flash the stock firmware but I need to find the firmware which so far I have not found.
My current Build No. T710XXS2CRH1
Can some knowledgeable person help me confirm and point me to the right firmware, Please?
I am open to updating to a newer version of Android but not sure which to choose.
Thanks
OK, update to stock firmware android 6.01 via Odin, all went well but Nook remained the same.
How do I get rid of Nook and it's apps to get normal OS.
What do I need to change?
Really want just get a original Android default apps instead of Nook
Thanks
