Firwmare of SM-T113 on SM-T110 ... is it possible?

Hello,
Is it possible to root the T-110 and install on it the T-113 firmware? Because it's 4.4 (KitKat) and the T-110 is only 4.2.
Thanks a lot.

Hi
You can root the t110 lite and a recovery is also avaible but there not much custom roms,view the sample threat,a xda ling,whos not lazy,has all stuff from any tabs,inc. T110,sampled with links and tools on 1 place..i have this device,too.. is bricked since any time,but i want awake it with new life.. bye
Short answer: No.
Long answer:
SM-T110/SM-T111 uses the Marvell PXA986/PXA988 chip.
SM-T113/SM-T116 uses the Spreadtrum SC8830 chip.
The two use different chips and therefore are incompatible.

Samsung A5 2017 Root.

If I root my new A5 with something like kingoroot ( assuming it can do it) Will I lose OTA updates?
I have all my stuff backed up with Titanium so need to root to restore I assume? Then I can unroot?

As far as I know, you will lose OTA and it will probably trip Knox. However, if successful, please let us know here. I'm sure people would appreciate it.
You will definitely need to be rooted to do a proper restore. But you might also want to try Samsungs Smart switch. It is able to transfer apps and data between devices. It was a bit of a hit or miss regarding app data though

I think you'll have to wait for someone to make working TWRP recovery for Ax20.
6.0.1 ain't that easy to root without custom recovery.
I used the Samsung switch software in the end.
For now, both Windows and Android version fails to root A3 2017 (A320F/FL).

no root for SM-A520F available yet
I think we have to hope (and wait) until someone compiles TWRP for SM-A520F on a marshmallow kernel base (since there are no official ports even for A510 (2016 A5) i dont think this will happen).
or until chainfire releases a A520F 6.0.1 cf auto root file (he did so for the 510 model, so this is more likely)
until then we must live without adblocker and full backup on that phone

This had supposed to be good for back up & restore, but I couldn't get the pc the recognise my chinese Elephone P8000

Have a wicked Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 and so far the only way to root the phone is with Odin. Waiting to have a Kingroot rooting exploit up and running hopefully soon. I want to install Titanium backup, Adblock, Screen Recorder (record any video with full sound ripping video off my phone (then edit and distribute by phone off a public wireless using a torrent app like FLUD) and Pimp my ROM
try block-this as adblocker...works as good as adaway...

Doesn't look to me like anyone's interested in anything for this phone ROMs nothing : that's ashame seems like a good phone
For me Its like a flagship device. I dont want any custom rom tho I want stock 8.0 instead of stock 7.0
Just flash your devie via flashtool, and you will have Oreo on your device, anyway, the root will be erased.
