Just rooted my new Galaxy Tab 4 8" (SM-T330NU) using odin's method. And it worked !!
Now i'm trying to find a way to flash a custom rom (or the CM roms) to remove the installed crap from samsung, any one has a link for me ?
Not yet. As far as I know, they're still working on a custom recovery that will be supported for this tablet. Please let me know if that's changed.

Download official rom from:
Code:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-P5100
or
Code:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/?
and flash it by Odin program.
Personaly I think Android without root is *** Generally Tab2 have horrible lags and should bee boost by custom modifications...
I recommend you use new custom roms with KK 4.4.2
Ok i am thinking about root could you give me some links to a tutorial of how to root this device an what i neeed to get kitkat

Easiest way is to just flash a custom recovery with Odin and installing a custom Rom.

No. Sammobile is for official (Samsung) builds. One can use Odin without root. Sammobile even gives the steps to get it done. Achieving root grants you access to ALL files (system and otherwise) so one can flash custom ROM's and other mods. Of course, having that kind of access means you can brick your Tab as well. I really suggest reading as much as you can about root and custom ROM's before you do such a thing. Knowledge is power when it comes to the root game.

Hi im wondering if anyone else is having this issue. I just flashed Omega rom 7.0 with no problems but then i flashed the new bootloader using Odin and it was successful too but for some reason when i check the bootloader version its still the old one.
I figured it out. Make sure to power down completely first and then boot into download mode and then flash thru Odin that way.

What is all about that new bootlader? Do I need to flash it? What has changed?
Thank you!
If you want to use the stock kernels you have to flash the new bootloader. Things like screen casting to a smart TV can only be done with stock kernels.

If you really want to have stock rom instead of gennxt rom, you can initialize your firmware using kies. I did it. Previous it was not possible but now yiu can do so as G7 is available through kies. This lrocess will also unroot your device.
ok thanks Bro… I am trying… .

You have to look for a flashable .tar file so that you can install it with Odin.
Here you go for CWM

Hi guys, I rooted my tab but I been trying to find the cyanogen mod rom that I can use on this tab. Anything newer than this 5.1.1 is better I guess.
Can anybody point me to latest best rom out there?
Thanks,
