How to Root Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 3G/LTE SM-T321
The procedure your Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 3G/LTE SM-T321 is about to go through will be very eventful. What do we mean by this? Let yourselves be surprised by following today’s guide!
If this is the first time you’ve performed a rooting, don’t worry; the procedure isn’t hard to follow. Everything of importance is detailed in this post. But what about the tool used for your tablet’s rooting? The name of the app we’re using is SRSRoot. You will see your device in a completely new light once this app’s done its magic on it. The first info we’ll give you on this tool is that it’s powered by an SRS Server. The app is actually freeware and it can easily unroot a device. It offers the same novelties to every gadget it’s installed on. But it needs a Build ID to function; if you want, you can use this one: KOT49H.T321XXU1ANBB. If you know a better one, you can use that; the SRSRoot works with every one of the available Build IDs.
The benefits of this procedure
When you want to root your tablet without getting affected by viruses or bloatware, the SRSRoot is here for you. Its many properties make it an excellent pick. For instance, there’s the great possibility to improve battery life. The gadget has a quad-core 2.3 GHz Krait 400 CPU; the latter’s speeds will receive plenty of improvement. Released earlier this year, your device sports Android 4.4.2 KitKat. This operating system doesn’t get damaged by the rooting. Available as Samsung SM-T325 with 3G/LTE and Samsung SM-T321 with 3G only, the gadget gets to play with new features.
A rooted device welcomes admin and superuser permission. Customization tweaks, custom ROMs and root-only apps are also part of the deal.
To get the new stuff, your tablet’s warranty will be sacrificed. To retrieve it, a dedicated tutorial is all you need to use. To have root access on a tablet that’s about to get upgraded means trouble. The upgrade will not only revoke that, but also delete the system partition. An upgrade won’t do away with the tablet’s data or internal external SD cards.
