Alrighty , cheers mate , just being cautious of not bricking my tablet.
Hey Guys
Strange. I have Problem entering recovery mode on my device.
With my former galaxy tab :No Problem. So let me clarify a few things.
When i turn of my device battery icon appears. Correct?
While the battery icon is flashing i press down simotanely both buttons power and volume up. Or first volume up and then the power?
I tried both versions and 2 things happen. If i don´t release the power button it just keeps restarting again and again.
If i release the power button- the system boots to os.
Perhaps i have the timing not right i don´t know.When exactly do i have to release the power button. When the big Samsung Galaxy tab 7.7 screen is seen?
Sorry guys but would be nice if you would post the exact procedure. I really need root to get my back up from titanium running.
Yahoooo.... our very own Galaxy Tab 7.7 development forum. Rooted mine last night and did OTA update this morning. Surprisingly it didn't break the root. My firmware is now LA2. I made sure I have the original firmware to revert to stock before my root and I strongly suggest you to do so just in case you need to send it in for service. Make sure the firmware matches the original region of your Tab.
failed to mount /sdcard (no such file or directory)
i already put the root.zip to the root of sdcard... but can't root my device successfully...
firmware is la1... hk ver
please help!!
As it says in the guide in first post, you need to use an EXTERNAL SDCARD!
I said I already put the file into the root of the SDCard... but still can't root my device...
/sdcard = internal storage
/sdcard/extStorages/SdCard = external storage
Thank you for the clarification!
Having problems getting Keis to recognize the device. (I have the HK 3g model from Negri). Not sure if I need a special version of the software. Device manger sees it as SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device with and Exclamation point on the driver. Kies Version 2.2.0.12014_18.
I also tried copying the files via Root Explorer and Logmein Resque. It says that it copies the files successfully but they do not show up in /sdcard/extStorages/SdCard I can however copy the file to /sdcard. Very Strange!
Try to use sammy's own file explorer. It should work. I think root explorer works only after root.

Our you can change the permission xml file to add support for any file managers to modify files under extStorages

Is there something wrong with my English so you guys won't understand what I am trying to say?
... I mean I've already put the root.zip into /sdcard/extStorages/SdCard, and it tells me no such file or directory found....
Firmware is LA1....
What's wrong with my device?
++++++++++++++ Advice for the new Galaxy Tab GT-P6800 & GT-P6810 user ++++++++++++++
WHAT DO you NOT make WITH YOUR NEW GALAXY TAB GT-P6800 & GT-P6810.
AFTER YOUR have rootet your device, you should NOT uninstall busysbox.
If you uninstall it nevertheless, the WIFI module of the devices will no longer work.
See my rooting guide above..does this apply to all device firmware ?
is there any guide to uninstall the busybox properly ?
this is a working root for ICS :laugh:
- Download these 2 files ( CWM.zip and root.zip ) and put in your SDCARD:
- Reboot to recovery: (Hold Volume Up+Power till it reboot to recovery)
- Choose apply update from external storage.
- Choose CWM.zip and wait until CWM recovery appear.
- Once the cwm recovery appear: Touch the screen to choose and navigate the options
* This cwm recovery is only temporary cwm recovery.
Once you had install the cwm recovery, navigate and;
- Choose install zip from sdcard.
- Choose zip from sdcard.
- Choose root.zip ;and Yes - Install root.zip.
- Once done, choose reboot system now.
* Your device is rooted without permanent cwm recovery: If you don't need cwm recovery. You can stop at here.
