[Q] Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016 (SM-T580) Root help

I'm hoping to root this 10.1" Galaxy Tab A 2016 model (aka SM-T580) which is running android Oreo 8.1. I can't seem to find a guide that says it will work on these tablets which are running 8.1. So can someone can either guide me themselves or link me somewhere that can. Preferably a no PC method. But methods that do require a PC are fine too. I'm familiar with ODIN as well as Android Fastboot etc.
I found this method but it doesn't specify if it will work on Oreo 8.1 or not -

I made THIS little guide after rooting my T585 running Oreo end of last year. Your T580 is basically the same (just without LTE), you simply need to replace any gtaxllte downloads with the gtaxlwifi versions. :good:
I have since then updated to Pie custom roms and everything is still running fine
Good luck :fingers-crossed:

I guess if you installed the Magisk Manager app it might be able to root your boot image ... you'd have to extract it, let Magisk patch it and then flash it via adb.
Just a guess though, I didn't try it on this device. Flashing Magisk through TWRP is so much easier :angel:

Apparently not. Methods vary according to which version of Android you have. I think eveyone has 8.1 by now, and I'll assume you have it also. So far, the following is the easiest method to follow. Here's the tutorial from You Tube that I know works. You can use Magisk 18 (which I have provided) or 18.1, both work for the device.

That's not even the current version - 19.3 is and can be downloaded via the original Magisk thread.

Have you rooted your device? I don't know if the 19.1 version works. I know the 18.0 and 18.1 do. Try it with the version 19 and let us know.

TB-8304F1 Tab 8 - Stuck on Android 7.0
Hi, apologies if this isn't the correct way to do this.
I too have a Lenovo Tab E8 which I just purchased and found I cannot upgrade it beyond 7.0
Details are:
Model : TB-8304F
Kernel: 3.18.35
Build: TB-8304F_S000030_190227_ROW
Does anyone know if there is a way to update this to a later version of Android. I have never rooted any of my android devices so this will be new to me.
Thanks, Shane
No, there are no available roms for this device so operating system cannot be updated beyond 7.
The only thing possible is to temporarily root (which resets after each reboot) and install some apps with root access. SetCpu did not work for me to increase speed

has anyone had luck unlocking the E8 as the website won't allow me to enter the serial number

To block OTA Updates
Can you simply move the DeviceSoftwareOTA, SystemUpdatesUI, DeviceSoftwareOTAContracts and DeviceSoftwareOTAIdleOverride folder in /system/priv-app/ directory to /storage/emulated/0/ internal storage directory.
Or, can you delete the system app folder, DeviceSoftwareOTA, SystemUpdatesUI, DeviceSoftwareOTAContracts and DeviceSoftwareOTAIdleOverride permanently.

" confirm that I managed to root my Fire HD 10, 7th Gen, 5.6.4.0 636559920 (automatically installed Dec 12th), and install TWRP & Magisk.
The intentional bricking made me also nervous, but if you follow the steps, it works."

Downgrade from Fire OS 5.6.8.0

Hi there,
I've got a Amazon Fire HD 8 7th gen running Fire OS 5.6.8.0 which I'm trying to downgrade and to attempt to root and flash TWRP with no luck. Does anyone knows a guide to get it rooted or get rid of the Amazon OS and install a regular Android version?
Thank you in advance!

This is not going to work for lem2405 as they provide the hardware and fw version of 5.6.8.0. The link you provided states: "Fire HD 8 7th gen (2017) -- up to Fire OS 5.6.4.0 build 636558520 only" clearly will not provide a solution.
Hey guys,
any update on the issue? My HD10 also runs on 5.6.8.0 and I don't want to brick it. Is the limitation "up to Fire OS 5.6.4.0 build 636558520 only" still valid?

In that thread, the first post says "NOTE: If you are on a firmware newer than 5.6.4.0, a downgrade is necessary, this requires bricking the device temporarily. (The screen won't come on at all)"
after downgrading the firmware through bricking, multiple people have reported in that thread of success un-lock of 5.6.8.0. i suggest reading the last few pages; starting from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-fire-hd-8-2017-douglas.3962846/page-32
Thank you, I just saw this thread and thought, it's over after a certain fw-version. I'm gonna read the mentioned pages and try to downgrade first.
cheers

if urs is HD10 2017 (code name suez), u are better off reading its specific thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-fire-hd-10-2017-suez.3913639/page-66
again there were reports of successful unlock w/ 5.6.7.0 and 5.6.8.0 in the last few pages. BEFORE doing the full bootloader unlock, plz note there could be other way to root access (no TWRP or custom rom though) like this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tut-root-hd10-2017-hd8-2016-2017-easy-supersu.3726443/ or this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/hd-10-2017-offline-rooting.3734860/
check around as HD10 2017 got hacked for root access very early! good luck!

How exactly would you downgrade through bricking?

How to root (, eventually downgrade) and unlock the bootloader of my Fire HD 10 7th gen + what operating systems can you install on it?

Hi, how can I root my Fire HD 10 7th gen? I have troubles downgrading it. OS version is 5.7.0.0 . I wanna install a different operating system, other than the crappy Fire OS. If I can, what systems can I install and how?
