You are better off using the testpoint unlock (Free with s1tool) than the official method.
Bonus you get to keep your DRM keys. (Think Fifa 12 being fully free or not is certainly influenced by this).
(It seems to be fairly easy to get into a total mess that flashtool cannot recover.)

Ok... sorry to be a complete idiot but what's s1 tool and how much. Plus I see something about test point, a USB cable and a paper clip lol sounds good??!!
Again sorry to be an idiot, I have experience with android but never had a phone with this bootloader locked crap!!

Your kernel determines your touch capabilities. Stock supports two.
Change to a kernel that supports more inputs if you really want it.
Why do you need more than two touch points?

Isuues with Galaxy Tab 3

My another phone galaxy tab 3 is lagging very much. Dunno why but even after the restore factory, it continues lagging. Do you guys think rooting will help me out? Need some experts advice.

First of all, try to use Greenify in order to hibernate unwanted bloatware , or try to shut them off using 'app info' for each app (can be reached from system->app management (see attached pic)
Anyway, rooting your device will allow you to completely remove unwanted apps, and to flash custom roms which, most of the time, performs much better than official ones- but in a cost of potentially voiding your warranty...

Thanks for your precious reply. Lemme try your suggestion and will let you know hows my device performing.

Should do better than that! I run stock and all is fine. Quite smooth actually. I have removed bloatware now as well. I'm wondering if something is wrong with your tablet. I bought an asus with a quad core and the thing was slower than a turtle. I took it back and got my samsung t310.
Yes stock ROM is fine, with rooted tab and custom kernel runs really nice. The only thing about the rooting is that you loose OTA and with KK comming soon I hope developers will find a workaround !
...enjoy ur Tab 3
