How to root Tab 4 SM-T530 with ubuntu (no not install ubuntu touch) - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have a Samsung Tab 4 SM-T530 i am wanting to root this device. all tutorials i have seen require a windows based application like odin to root this.
I dont own windows os i have Linux Mint which is built on Ubuntu. how can i root my tab 4 from this os.
or are there any apps i can install on the tablet directly to give root.
any ideas and solutions would be helpful. i dont want to brick this tablet as i use it for many things.
Hi i have a samsung tab 4 10.1 SM-T530 am looking for android 6 CyanogenMod 13.0 all i can see is thsi post for CyanogenMod 14 https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/rom-slimrom-5-0-1-alpha-0-7-t2963906/page137
where is the old thread that was for 13.0 i know there was one because i saw it in this youtube clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU_HZ6mUWHM
also when i want to install this i need to root my tab 4 SM-T530 but i dont have a windows operating system. all i have is ubuntu linux. so i cant install anything without rooting first. so annoying.
if anyone can help with these things i would appreciate it thanks..

{Q} Custom ROMS (AOSP/CM) for Galaxy A8 (SM-A800F)? Any possibility in Future??

Hello all
I was wondering if there will be AOSP/CM ROM for this device, not a single ROM is available and no dev is interested to work on such a great device.
Such a totally crap device, still stucked on 5.1.1 since launch, no dev is interested in the development either, where android n announced already, we are still waiting for Android M update, i wasted my money on such a **** device, will never buy a sammy mid range in future, m totally fed up with this
I think because there are few developer with that phone and they can't test their work. You can port ROMs such as CM to you phone by your self. There are tons of guides and forums. All u need is a linux OS (such as ubuntu, debian and others) and sources.

yep, I'm on kali and I use windows 10 to play games, so the only thing is: take care when partitioning. After you installed ubuntu there is a bootloader called "GRUB" and there you can choose if you want to boot windows or linux

Lenovo Tab7 HD TB-7504X - Update to Android 8?

Hello,
a friend of mine owns the mentioned tablet in the subject. As we want to use both a specific app (Skydemon) on our tablet, unfortunately now it seems that this tablet is not compatible with its version 7 of android with this app (other tables are working fine with android 7 and skydemon), I am searching for a custom rom. In my opinion lenovo itself does not offer any more uprades to this tablet. Is tehere really also no custom rom available for this device?
By the way, what exactly is version 7504X? Is it a Tab7? Tab3 7? Tab 4 7? Lenovos name convention is really confusing for me ...
Cheers

[SM-T510] (2019) Search for Nethunter/ Kali Linux rom and guide

Hello guys,
this is my first post. Since today I´m a proud owner of a Galaxy Tab A (SM-T510 with 64 GB ROM and 3GB RAM, newest stock android build T510XXU2ASK5, never connected to internet yet).
I want to install Nethunter OS or Kali Linux (if possible) on this and read many hours in the internet but there are some questions:
Has anyone flashed the SM-T510 with Nethunter OS? (if this isn´t possible, a way to just use the kali apps is fine too but not my first choice)
Is it possible to flash directly to the ROM instead to a SD Card?
Which type of processor has the tablet? I think it is amd64 not arm, right? Maybe I could try to flash a Nethunter Image for Galaxy Tab S4 but I´m sure this doesn´t work cause the processor is not exact the same... (https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-nethunter-download/)
I found this thread about Kali Linux installation but I would find a direct installation better https://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/hardware/devices-kali-linux-installation-t3414523 (If I can´t install directly, can I use this guide for my device after I rooted it?)
A few years ago I flashed Android on a SD-Card for my HTC Kaiser 130 (still working fine), so I have a little experience about flashing and so on but flashing this tablet looks a little bit more difficult to me, so I want as much information as possible cause I have only one try (in the baddest scenario)
I hope you can help me.
Thanks for reading! (I´m from germany, so I´m sorry for my bad english)
Edit: I have found UserLAnd and will try it now, if someone has a better suggestion, feel free to post it
Where'd you get the idea that this was an AMD64 tablet? All Samsung Galaxy Tab As are ARM, The T510 has an Exynos 7904 or 7885 SoC. And I've never heard of anyone porting a Linux distro to one.

Thanks for your answer lewmur, I just read it is a 64bit proc and thought it is amd64, my last tablet is some years old and I just thinked the technical development is quicker... ^^
Hmm... sounds like bad news, I just googled yesterday and it is a Exynos 7904, yes you´re right. That means it is closed source, damn.
In this thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-m30/help/hope-custom-rom-development-m30-exynos-t3910256) I found someone who maybe has kernel source, I will write him. Maybe where is a way to build a Nethunter image by myself. I have tested UserLAnd on the tab and I don´t really like it, it´s not smooth.
On monday I will go to the shop where I buyed the tab and try to give it back, maybe they have goodwill, then I will buy online a nexus tablet, looks much more easier.
Thank you anyway, maybe someone has some more good tipps for me.
I have downloaded this
nethunter-2021.3-generic-armhf-kalifs-full.zip
and flashed it with TWRP on my Rooted Device and it works on SM-T510 Android 11 StockROM

Galaxy Tab S2 8 inch - SM-T710: potential numpty questions

Hi Guysmy Galaxy Tab S2 8 inch - SM-T710 is running andriod 7.0 , which seems to be the last support ed / issued version.
I have started to notice that a few apps are crashing when I try to open them...
My Oneplus phone run Oxygen 10.1.....
Is it possible to format / wipe the Samsung, and install Oxygen 10? or is is a case of living with it till it becomes unusable ?
Thanks
You can flash oxygen os if someone has made a port of it, converted it to run on a tab s2 I doubt that's been done though.
There are loads of other custom android versions available I'm running lineage os 16 which is android 9 on mine. I've tried android 10 versions but none work correctly.
Many thanks. I will look into lineage os 16. Are there are how to guides that you would recommend?

Can I install kali nethunter on Nexus 4?

I repaired my nexus 4. (I bought a secondhand broken device to install a kali nethunter)
I wanted to install kali nethunter, but I don't think it's supporting my device anymore as the version has been updated.
I tried to download version 1.1, but I couldn't find a possible site.
Does anyone have a solution or 1.1 version?
Just yesterday I installed it on a Galaxy Note 10. The list of compatible Galaxy devices ends with Galaxy Tab S4 (Oreo). I'm running Android 11 on a rooted Note 10, lol. What I did was flash the "Generic ARM64". It flashed fine but not a whole lot actually works though. The kali-terminal is probably the best thing about it. You have a Nexus 4, it looks like Nexus 5 and above are on the list. I'm not saying you should, I'm just letting you know that the Generic one worked for me.

Nexus 4 has ARMv7 so Generic might not work.
@131101 It can also brick your phone, just be careful.

Doesn't ARMv7 support ARMhf?
Let's us know what you decide to do. I should have mentioned to be careful of the ARM version and that it's the same as the version you install, if you install any at all.
Oh yeah, I forgot to meantion that you can and probably should extract the zip file and find the .apk's and install them rather than flashing the zip. I have a rooted S8 with a locked bootloader and I can't tell the difference from the phone I flashed the zip on and the one I manually installed the apk. Most things don't work equally on both, lol.
