Intro

garyd9 originally ported ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.0.x to the Tab 7 Plus (all variants) in late 2011. Gary's since moved on to bigger and better things, and so has ClockworkMod Recovery. As of ClockworkMod Recovery version 6.0.0.x backups and restores should be faster, take up less space (due to file-level deduplication), and there's a swanky new look (though a bit iOS-y).

wtf is "recovery" anyways?
Recovery mode is a minimal, alternative mode of booting which allows you to install software from zip files, backup/restore your device, and perform low-level operations like factory reset and formatting partitions. All Android devices have a recovery mode (it's part of the stock AOSP environment), but the default recovery mode is very limited. For example, it only allows you to flash zips which have been signed by the vendor's private key.

ClockworkMod Recovery was developed by Koushik Dutta (@koush), and is much more flexible... If you want to flash CyanogenMod, you MUST have a non-stock recovery. Right now that means ClockworkMod Recovery.

Flashing with Heimdall
I recommend flashing with Heimdall; it's open source and cross platform, whereas Odin is a leaked internal tool from Samsung, and only works on Windows. I absolutely cannot give guidance on using Odin. As of this time I recommend using Heimdall 1.3.1 (1.3.2 has a known bug which prevents flashing some files from completing successfully).

You can use the GUI (heimdall-frontend), or flash from the command line. In Linux it's easy:
  1. Unplug your tablet from USB
  2. Turn your tablet off
  3. Hold Volume Down and press the power button, keep holding Volume Down for 5 seconds
  4. Plug your tablet back into the computer
  5. Type:
    Code: 
    sudo heimdall flash --recovery p6200-clockworkmod-6.0.2.7.img

After that you should now have ClockworkMod Recovery installed.

Booting into CWM
There are a few ways to get into ClockworkMod Recovery:

  • Using adb, type: adb reboot recovery
  • From CyanogenMod's power menu: hold down the Power button for a few seconds, then navigate to Reboot -> Recovery.
  • With the tablet off, hold Volume Up and press power, keep holding Volume Up for 5 seconds

Disclaimer
I've tested backing up and restoring to CM9 and stock a few times, and it seems to work well. But please back up your stuff with other applications, like Go Backup or Titanium Backup just in case something goes wrong with restoring.

Using Mobile Odin simply place the .tar.md5 in the recovery field and flash away!

Edit: There's something wrong with the .tar.md5 you posted for Odin for the 6210. I got an error about partitions when I tried to load it in Mobile Odin. I downloaded the .img file instead and went ahead and created a .tar.md5 from it. I was able to load the new .tar.md5 I created into Mobile Odin to flash the updated CWM. Thanks for this! Here's the mediafire download for the new .tar.md5 I used to flash:

I cannot mount the SD card on the computer from the recovery.
Perhaps it doesn't work that way from clockworkmod recovery, but if i remember correctly my nexus one and kindle allow that.

That never worked on our device. The internal storage cannot be USB mounted, and I've never seen an option to mount the removable one on the P6200/P6210. Can you clarify a bit?

Will this work with ICS update?

Yes. I posted in the first page that I have tested backing up and restoring to/from the stock ICS release.

Ok, it's possible I made the file incorrectly. Like I posted in the first post, I do not use Odin, and never have. The only support I can offer is trying to create a new one and hoping that works. I suggest you try Heimdall in the mean time.

Thanks again AORTH!

have you contacted The guys at Clcokwork to get this in the app, hopefull save a lot of people using the CWM recovery installer app, even though its a stickied thread warning.

thank you!

I haven't contacted them. "They" don't have a "contact." It will happen eventually, I guess. Honestly I can't blame koush for being hard to reach, I bet n00bs bug him all day, every day with retarded questions.

    I have successfully flash the .img on my P6200 using Heimdall WINDOWS version.

    what i did was:
    1. Download and extract Heimdall Suite 1.3.1 win32. I extracted the folder to C:
    2. Download the clockworkmod heimdall flashable image & put it in the same folder as hemidall suite. (mine was p6200-clockworkmod-6.0.0.8.img)
    3. Put my P6200 into download mode (power + volume down) & plugged it in.
    4. Install the driver using zadig.exe as noted in the readme. BUT for me, P6200 usb driver is stated as Gadget Serial in the list. (not samsung usb composite)
    5. Open up command prompt and run as administrator and cd to the Heimdall folder directory. (mine was C:/heimdall)
    6. type: heimdall detect
    7. make sure it says device detected
    8. then, type: heimdall flash --recovery p6200-clockworkmod-6.0.0.8.img
    9. done and my tab reboots.

    Download links for ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0

    Here are some download links for CWM 6.0.1.0, which has a few important fixes (including the weird emmc "missing slash" bug from 6.0.0.8):

    P6200/P6201/P6200L: Mediafire (md5: 4554f940ac0064dba3e1c5e12469efd2)
    P6210/P6211/P6210L: Mediafire (md5: e71feb63ee44a7e809b6c2e7ae6d6e7d)

    Flash from Heimdall. I still suck at making Odin images, maybe Vivified can make (and test), then I'll mirror them.
