I would like to 'ROOT' my....
Samsung Galaxy Tab2 10.1 GT-P5110
Android Version 4.2.2
.... & run a custom ROM to remove all bloatware.
Only must have is USB tethering.
Can anyone point me to somewhere that i can safely get everything i need?
A idiot's guide would also be useful as this will be my first time.

I had a Galaxy Tab2 GT-P5110.
Unless you are enjoying it (and making use of it) you may as well try anything to improve it.
It was the worst tablet I ever owned, from suspicious load times to pathetic battery life and yes... bloated to the hilt.
I sincerely wish you luck. I quit messing around with it about a year ago. Maybe you can save it?

Thanks guys
This thing has sat in a drawer for the last year, just want to give it a chance before i splash out on something new.
Any recommendations for a good replacement in case it goes belly up? Only want something for browsing/mobile tethering, everything else is done on my trusty desktop.
