Hey, ok so I want to know what's the best hack for my new device
Hi all,
Okay so my Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has arrived. I did some searching and it seems like there are a million options as far as replacing / hacking the rom.
So, all I want to do is have root access, and be rid of any bloat that’s built in. I prefer whatever is most tried and true, and whatever does not have any iffy components still. Like, I want everything to function without glitches, I want to get the most out of my hardware, and other than that, I really don’t want a 100-step process.
So, recommends? What’s available that’s very reliable and what does it offer me?
Unfortunately, there is not lineageos for the tab a7 lite, just the regular version. Check out the XDA thread for it, I saw a few GSIs, and honestly I'd advise you keep it stock, and root it if you want, because samsung has a lot of nice features for tablets, like multitasking.
It looks like Lineage actually might be available although I don’t need it.
I gotta tell you I can’t make heads or tails of the xda forums. Every post has a half dozen abbreviations and I have no idea what I want. What’s the difference between root and TWRP.
TWRP is a custom recovery, which lets you flash magisk and root. The majority of the time, you will want it to root, but occasionally there is a rooting method without twrp
