[Q] [Samsung Galaxy R/Z] How to root? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering how to root my device. I have spended some time searching but I have not found anything. Should I do the same as with the GT-I9100 SII? If not, is someone working on a rooting method for this device? What should I do?
I am new to android, I used to be an apple consumer and the jailbreak stuff was a lot easier as the number of apple devices is a lot smaller.
Please help!

[Q] 10.1 4G Roms and Kernels?

Are there any roms or kernels for the 4G gtab???
I saw that they finally got root and CWM but havent been able to find anything else.
I'm trying to get a Dev system configured for building Tom's but I'm a noob and can't seem to find any honeycomb specific material, I also have a WiFi Tab 10.1 so I would be able to test both a 4g and wifi rom

Well if I actually knew how to develope anything on these devices I would help but sadly I just know how to use the great things that all the devs make.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

oooooops sorry didnt realize galaxy tab had a Q&A yet

Want to learn developing

Hi community,
my plans are to learn how to develop my own customROM and perhaps Kernel for my own device.
But I dont want to do this with my new mobilephone and my old ones (LG o2x, HTC HD2) are giveaways for my mum and girlfriend so there isn't a mobilephone left to do this.
Now I've considered to buy a cheap and used Android mobilephone at ebay but there are so many different devices.
My question is if there is a device with which it is easy to learn developing and which pardons mistakes.
Sorry for my bad english and thanks for your response
best regards

I would go with a Nexus S (GSM version)
Very simple to use, pure Google and I would assume it's relatively cheap now. Also has ICS and JB

Questions should be asked in Q&A forums, not Development forums.

[Q] Roms etc. Help

I recently purchased the galaxy s3 and am quite happy with it, put adw launcher pro made a few tweaks got the jellybean update and am satisfied with everything it does.
My question is what is the need for flashing new Roms or rooting the device? What is the purpose and benefits?
I'm new to all of this and would love some briefing!

You would be better off asking here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1708
This forum is for International Galaxy S3 I9300, not I535 Verizon. Anything you do from these forums can brick your device. Good luck and welcome aboard!
I appreciate the reply, I tried re posting this post on that thread but it said the forum is closed. Do not many have the samsung gs3 for Verizon?

Fact is advice or firmware from this forum may brick a phone that is not a I9300 .

Instead of spending time here, head over to the forum specific for your phone model & carrier.
In general, most samsung phones (including your model) can go back to the stock state using odin.
Do you know how to do this?

Again, go to the forum for your phone and all the answers will be laid out for you.
Need ten messages to seek help with viper4android, which is stupid. Thanks for understanding.

You do not need 10 questions to read any existing threads, or (if needed) ask a question in a Q&A forum. Questions do not belong in Development forums which is why the 10 post rule is in place.

I seem to be getting no help around here (debloating questions)

If anyone is interested and able to help if you could please reply to this topic that would be great. I've had many questions over time that all get over looked, despite no Google-able straight answers to be found.
Thanks. Im on a galaxy s5 neo

I'm not a new member though... Have asked for help on the forum specific for my device to no avail. I then decided to ask in this more generalized area hoping someone would be willing to help.
The questions I have are actually not newbie questions they're pretty complex I would say.

Bloat ware on Samsung devices are more or less the same, you can look at any of the several lists for the s5 that are available all over the place including right here on xda. Pretty simple, especially since you claim you're not a noob!
