Install A CWM Or TWRP Recovery on The Sprint Galaxy Tab 3

A Sprint-branded version of Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 3 is available and known as the SM-T217S.  This is a device that has almost the same specifications of a normal Galaxy Tab 3 but is exclusive to Sprint subscribers. The Sprint Galaxy Tab 3 initially ran on the Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, but Samsung has recently rolled out a direct update to the Android 4.4.2 KitKat for this device.

If you own a Sprint Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T217S and you would like to be able to tweak and apply mods to your device, you are going to need to install a custom recovery and root your device.  In the guide below, we are going to show you how to install two custom recoveries in your device, the ClockworkMod6 or TWRP 2.7 recovery ma nweta ya ohere mgbọrọgwụ n'ihi na Sprint Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T217S.

Note: Both custom recoveries, the ClockworkMod6 and the TWRP 2.7 basically have the same purpose, so just pick one according to your own preference.

Note2: This method works with Sprint Galaxy Tab 3’s that are already running on either Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean or Android 4.4.2 KitKat.

Before we begin, we thought we’d give any newbies a better idea of what it is to install custom recovery and allow root access on their device.

What is custom recovery?

• Installing a custom recovery on your phone will allow for the installations of custom roms, mods and others.
• A custom recovery will allow you to make a Nandroid backup. If you make a Nandroid backup, you can go back to a device’s previous working state anytime you want.
• A custom recovery may be necessary to flash certain files such as SuperSu.zip, which is also necessary to root your phone.
• If you have custom recovery you can wipe both the cache and the dalvik cache of a device.

What is root access?

• A rooted phone has complete access over data which would otherwise be locked by the phone’s manufacturers. This allows you to do the following:
  1. Wepu ụlọ ọrụ mmechi
  2. Make changes to internal systems
  3. Make changes to the operating system.
• If you have root access you can also install different applications that can help enhance device performance, remove built-in applications or programs, and upgrade device battery life.
• Some apps need root access to perform properly. You also need root access in your device if you want to used mods or flash custom recoveries or custom ROMS.
