SM-T700 (wifi) Rooted needs OTA updates access - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

Hi all
Recently I've rooted my german Samsung galaxy tab s 8.4 wifi with Kingroot 4.60 version.
Its acting very strange with restarts, killing apps etc. Well I guess it's a big mistake for even thinking of rooting at all.
I basicly rooted just to get rid of all these massive package of samsung bloatapps but now my OTA updates are blocked for ever. Even after unrooting my device the OTA update doesn't work for me.
I'm pretty new and yes call me "n00b" but please bare with me.
I need to fix it with your help and suppot.
Is there any chance to get original (not rooted or modified) OTA updates on a rooted SM-T700 wifi? I want to keep it original as possible though. I never flashed any android so I still need the opinion of an expert before totally killings my tablet.
Any step-by-step tutorials for a noob? Would be very thankful for your support.
Config:
Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 wifi
Updated from 4.4 to 5.0.2
It really wouldn't bother me if I purchased my device on my own BUT it was a lovely birthday present of my little Sister so I really feel bad for messing with it. :crying:
Thanks a lot

Confirming lack of ability to upgrade past 4.2.2 on Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110/SM-T111)

Hi all,
Just rooted my device for the first time today using TWRP and flashing SuperSU. I was hoping it was going to give me the ability to upgrade my device to a stock android version of Lollipop. As I'm looking around it seems like that is not supported by the community. I have used the search bar and haven't come up with much, except a few old threads when Lollipop was just released.
I found this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755532 that suggests nobody has modded it past it's final android update 4.2.2. The only difference it seems is it gets rid of some of the uninstallable Samsung and Google apps.
I just wanted to confirm that there is no development going on past 4.2.2 for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110) before I flash a new ROM from the list.
Thanks.

I would also like to know, I bought the tablet today for my son, but never checked about the android version, and now i can't update the kids mode on it,so being to get it to update would be brilliant, if not i'll have to take it back and exchange it for one that has a newer version.
Maybe in the future:

Stock Lollipop for Tab 3 8.0 Wi-Fi

Hey guys. Sorry if this question has been asked a few times, but is there a stock rooted Lollipop ROM available for the Tab 3 8.0 Wi-Fi? I've tried searching the Internet and thought I found a couple of leads, but they turned out to be infested with malware, which resulted in me having to uninstall some randomly installed programs along with other steps to remedy the situation. My main purpose for wanting to install Lollipop is to improve the performance of my tablet, as it has a tendency to get a bit laggy. Thanks in advance.
Not that I am aware of. Depending on your region, the highest Stock Android version was 4.4.2.

915A - No root? No TWRP or CWM??

Am I just missing it, or is there no root or recovery ability for the 915A?
Marshmallow 6.0.1 ****ed mine up when it got pushed down, and Samsung's backup software (all 3 of them) failed to capture my apps and settings properly. Really wish I could've had a better backup ability.
Does or has anyone checked to see if the update to MM 6.0.1 has unlocked the bootloader on the SM-N915A like the Verizon variant?
How does one check?
Att have not released any M updates.
Mine updated to 6.0.1 the same day I bought it . Several small updates happened first. 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 then a small one, and finally 6.0.1. Since I had just bought it, resetting was a simple thought. But so far, no problems, I bought a PowerBear to make it last longer. :fingers-crossed:
Mine had a lot of issues after being updated. MMS didn't work at all. SMS worked sporadically, but would sometimes delete whole threads. Couldn't get a signal in many spots. Google Play Services wouldn't run and couldn't be fixed. Tried a cache-wipe and every other non-destructive method, but nothing worked. Ended up having to factory-reset, and since then the phone works as it should, but none of the backup methods captured key settings. Basically all it did was save contacts and APK's. Lost my 2-factor keys and everything.
I am with you! Since the update to MM, phone has been very laggy/unresponsive. Lock screen lights up for no reason sporadically and I have LOTS of dropped calls/deadspots. VERY irritating! I wish this release would have been tested a bit more before it was OTA pushed out
Hey all! Good news! A 9-year-old bug called the "Dirty Cow" exploit still exists in the Linux/Android kernel can easily grant root on any Android phone!!! See the video below.
http://www.xda-developers.com/9-yea...-dirty-cow-can-root-every-version-of-android/
So there's another bug to exploit for root and even possibly unlocking the bootloader! The bug has been fixed recently in Linux but hasn't been rolled into Android yet.
Could someone make this Windows compatible? http://androiding.how/dirty-cow-root-android/

Samsung's OTA update to Nougat not playing well...

Please help...the wife has the T-mobile S6 Edge running Nougat that Samsung pushed OTA and has caused all sorts of crashes and lock ups. Being that she is not rooted and doesn't have any custom recovery, I am at a loss of what I can do for her. She is hesitant on letting me root the device and bringing her phone to the Modded side, but im close to convincing her after the last time the camera froze up on her!
So...she is running the following:
Model Number: SM-G925T
Android V: 7.0
Baseband: G925TUVU5FQE1
Build #: NRD90M.G925TUVU5FQE1
( i can provide more info if needed)
Can I root this devise and roll back to Marshmellow? Please provide any info and links i will need to refer to so not to brick the wife's phone!
P.S. I do have some experience with rooting, but every device is different and my current device is the OnePlus3, and they made it very easy....and Im not very active on Samsung devices, so would need to catch up on the problems people might have faced while doing this......Samsung I have learned does not make it so easy.
There are tons of links under the s6 Development forum, check over there for root guides & Custom ROMs

I would like to know if I can get Android 8.0?

I feel your pain, my friend. Since we never even received 7.1 we will probably never get 8.0 or 8.1....Samsung is a business that needs to sell new phones. As a consequence, old phones like ours "normally" only get 2 version updates. Ours started with 5.1 was updated to 6.0 and finally to 7.0.
