I have done extensive due diligence but there are a dozen conflicting posts on XDA covering how to go about this. Off of XDA are just a million sites with AI generated copy that's absolutely incorrect.

So, I have a new Galaxy Tab A7 Lite. I want to root it and have the superU app, etc. and I will then de-google it.

So, like I said, there's a ton of conflicting methods listed. Also, many provide instructions like "Now flash the device," or "put it in xyz mode" but they don't actually say how. Instructions are supposed to be instructive, not referential.

I'm not incapable; far from it. I rooted my Zenpad a few years ago. It's just I had comprehensive directions.

So, would anyone be up to the task? I'm offering $20 because I know this is a bit of a todo and I respect the value of your time and effort.

Thanks, all.

P.S. I should first make sure, rooting does not preclude keeping updates, right? If it would prohibit updates then I think I might not want to do it.
