Hello, I was wondering about how to root my tablet, it is a 10.1" onn surf walmart tablet, I wanted to root it, but all the guides I could find are either outdated, or the wrong model (or both!) and I’m kinda at my wits end.I have OEM unlocking and usb debugging, so i can root it i believe.

I wonder if there is any software or app that can dump the ROM file? because I can’t seem to find any archive of the model, and like i said, the ones people talk about are the wrong type and i don’t wanna risk breaking anything.

thank you.

    You can just go into the uninstall screen to uninstall and then disable preinstalled applications. Disabling them causes Android to hibernate them, essentially - meaning they don’t ever fire up on their own again, and since they’re installed in the system partition, you don’t necessarily lose any space by them being there, because you don’t gain any space back by removing them.

    There are multiple ad-blocker apps that use your phone…as a VPN loopback, which can then intercept and block ads for the whole device. I don’t know of a particular one to suggest, as I run my own adblocked network from home and rely on a similar, but ultimately different method.
