Does anyone know where to find the procedure for unlocking bootloader?

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (AT&T i497)
I have tried everything... For whatever reason I can't gain root... loads recovery (CWM or TWRP) no problem but cannot seem to get it to take SU.... Have they changed something recently... I did my wife's tablet fine back in November using this method but for whatever reason mine is being difficult... Recovery says it can't mount data... I can't find the zip file regardless if I put it on the ext-sd or on the actual tablet main tree.... I just don't get it....

Hello guys,
I have clockworkmod recovery installed on my espresso10att and thought I could flash the appropriate auto root file via recovery but it says the install fails? Does this have to be flashed via Odin? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You nee to flash using odin.
If you have installed clockworkmod allready you only need to flash SuperSU in recovery instead using this root method. Get the flashable zip here http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
Note never flash p5100, p5110 or p5113 stuff on a AT&T Tab 2! Different devices!!

Thanks Andi! It did take me a while to figure out exactly which device I had as I went through a period of trying to determine if I had one of those P51xx's. I currently have CWM 6.0.1.2 Is this the most current version available for this device? So as I understand what your saying, since I have a customer recovery, all I need to now do is place the flashable SuperSU file on my device so it can be flashed via CWM? I really wish there were at least a couple decent ROMS for this tablet but from what I have read there are not?
Thanks again!
Jason

Awesome post
I want to say thank you, 2 years ago i wanted to remove the bloat ware on my AT&T Samsung galaxy tab-2 10.1 SGH-i497. had no issues, matter of fact this was 2 years ago. well I accidentally factory reset tablet, it boots up and goes through set up until it gets to google & location, hit the next arrow and a message comes up saying "unfortunately, Samsung setup wizard has stopped". I can get to the down loader and tried to reinstall as you described and get a successful message but when it reboots it does the same thing, please tell me there is hope and my tablet has not become a brick.

Did you try any of the roms for sgh-i497 or just p5100? If these two models are the same then if the rom has a script that checks your device variant you can remove it and flash it. Should work. I have the 7 inch wifi version so i really dont know any of the 3g models. Check the unified section it should have roms that work for all versions. I would recommend installing a marshmellow rom with no gapss. Best performance i could get out of this thing was with Orion OS

88Check your device model ! Settings -> About device -> Model number. See the third post for exact supported model numbers. If your device is a totally different model, it will not work (may even brick) !
CF-Root is the root for "rooting beginners" and those who want to keep as close to stock as possible. CF-Root is meant to be used in combination with stock Samsung firmwares, and be the quickest and easiest way for your first root.
Donate
CF-Root has been available for many devices and has clocked over 8 million downloads. This is not even counting custom ROMs that already include it. Don't be a leech, buy me a beer (and use the "Thanks" button!). Imagine if every CF-Root user has donated me $1...
What's installed
- SuperSU binary and APK
- Stock recovery
Installation and usage
Flash the CF-Auto-Root package as PDA in ODIN (details on how to do that are in next post), and your device should reboot into a modified recovery (signified by a large red Android logo) and it will install SuperSU for you and restore the stock recovery, and reboot back into Android.
If you don't get to the red Android logo, boot into recovery manually ("adb reboot recovery", or boot while holding Power+VolUp+Home).
Using this root increases your flash counter. You should run Triangle Away (see below) after rooting to reset the counter. Note that if you want to run custom kernels or custom recoveries, your flash counter will be set to 1 at every boot. Either configure Triangle Away to reset the counter at every boot (Play version only) or only reset the counter when you need to go into warranty.
Did you see the red Android logo during rooting, but SuperSU does not appear? This may sometimes occur due to left-over files and settings, however, you can usually install SuperSU from Google Play at this stage and it'll just work.
Not included - Triangle Away
Triangle Away can be used to reset the flash counter after installing CF-Root. The flash counter keeps track of how many custom firmwares you have flashed, as this voids warranty. (No idea what this about ? Read up on it, you will want to use this !)
Not included - adbd Insecure
As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)

[CENTRAL] CF-Auto-Root
For requests for new roots and generic discussion - please keep device specific discussion in the thread you are viewing now.58ODIN Installation (detailed)
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip the attached Odin3-vX.X.zip file
- Download and unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)
- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5
- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked
- Click the Start button
- Wait for Android to boot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
- NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode and root your device. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install root and such, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, hold VolUp+Power (for several seconds) to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.
New to Samsung? Unfamiliar with Odin? Think all the above is a hassle? Get used to it. It's very simple, and us Samsung folk use Odin (or Mobile ODIN) for everything! It's so very very convenient once you get used to it. Notice the 30 second comment above? For experienced users, the entire process indeed takes only 30 seconds!
You may now optionally want to install and run Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.50Download

2012.10.26: SuperSU v0.967I have updated all the CF-Auto-Root downloads. The scripts have been slightly improved, the roboto font is now used, and SuperSU has been updated to v0.98 !
There is no need to flash the updated version if you are currently successfully rooted (you'll have gotten the latest SuperSU from Google Play updates already).
