The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is one of the most appreciated Android
based tablets available on the market, so its users might want to learn
how to properly use its performances and capabilities. For that there
must be applied a few custom operations that can provide access to the
internal system and more control over the same. And the first to begin
with is the root procedure. Therefore, during the following step by step
guide we will be checking in how to easily root the Galaxy Note 10.1,
model numbers GT-N8000, GT-N8010, GT-N8013, and GT-N8020 by using the
CF-Auto-Root package.
Gaining root access for your Galaxy Note 10.1 must be granted if you
want to remove the factory restrictions out from your tablet. In this
way you can unchain the OS and gain access to the internal files of your
device. A rooted system is opened for improvements and customization
operation meaning that once this tutorial is completed, you will be able
to power up the performances of your Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1.
In a few words, you will be able to install apps that requires root
access in order to work properly, flash custom recovery tools, update
the tablet with custom ROMs firmware, change the user interface, improve
the battery life, apply customization and maintenance operations and a
lot more. Of course, rooting the Galaxy Note 10.1 is not an official
procedure, which means that you need to apply a suitable guide that has
been developed for the version of your handset. Luckily for you the
present tutorial can be performed for the N8000, N8010, N8013 and N8020
variants of the Note 10.1, so you have nothing to worry about.
But, as usual when we are dealing with unofficial operations that aren’t related with Samsung, we will start with a backup
process. It’s true that for rooting the Note 10.1 with CF-Auto-Root you
will use Odin and it’s unlikely to lose your personal info, but you can
never be too sure; therefore just before heading on applying other
tasks, complete a backup operation for saving all the Galaxy Note 10.1
data (text messages, recent saves, market apps, EFS,
and so on). You can then return to the present tutorial and resume the
rest of the pre requisites and then the actual root procedure.
Also, because by rooting we understand that all the factory and
default settings and restrictions that are applied on the internal
system of your Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 will be removed, by completing
this guide you will void the warranty of your tablet. That’s why you
should be careful in what you do and always follow a suitable guide that
can be used only for your handset. Else, you can end up in bricking
your device. The warranty can be restored though but only if you decide
to revoke the root access and reinstall the factory restrictions; this
can be performed by downgrading to the stock ROM or by updating your
Note 10.1 with an official software released by Samsung.
Now, let’s see which the rest of the preparation tasks are. I have
mentioned and explained the same during the next list, so don’t skip
this section. Don’t worry, the root procedure will be explained just
after the pre requisites, so you are almost done.
