Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow: This tutorial will teach you how to install CyanogenMod 13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 device. This version allows you to port the latest version of Android, Android 6.0 Marshmallow to your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. The first devices to run Android 6.0 Marshmallow are the Nexus 6X and Nexus 6P. In other words, for the many previously released Android devices, there won’t be an Android 6.0 Marshmallow update for quite some time (and there is no guarantee that your device will get updated). You can, however, choose to wait for the official Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 OR you can get Android 6.0 Marshmallow on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 via the CM13 ROM. Check out how Install Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 CM13 Android 6.0 Marshmallow if that’s your version.

Instructions

In order to install CM13 on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 you first need to download the CM13 ROM and simply flash it using a custom recovery like TWRP or Cyanogen recovery (which is available for most devices) with a factory reset/wipe data. The necessary downloads are available for you below. Before you continue, you should note that you would be required to download and install the necessary Gapps package for your version of Android. Currently, we have a Gapps 5.1 Lollipop Download page but for this ROM you will need the Gapps 6.0 Marshmallow Download. We also have CyanogenMod specific Gapps packages that work with most custom ROMs.

  5. After selecting the .zip file, do “Swipe to Confirm Flash” on the bottom of the screen to begin the custom ROM installation process. This may take some time.
  6. Once your ROM is successfully flashed, you’ll see “Wipe cache/dalvik” option, select it and then do “Swipe to wipe” on the bottom of the screen.
  7. Now flash the Marshmallow Gapps file similarly like you flashed the ROM file.
