One thing I had to do to get things going is to put the folder on the Desktop, rather than in the Downloads folder.

I was having ODIN crash on me when attempting to update. And not just crash the program, but the whole PC.

Oh shoot I forgot.... Mainly as I do it as force of habit. When messing around with ROMs and Flashing I always turn off Windows UAC, Antivirus and Firewall not to mention I run all Programs like this with Admin rights, all of which have a hand in protecting things you download into your downloads folder!

This is why People tell you to extract to a folder on your desktop!

Hi !

This rolling screen problem in CWM is very annoying.
I have tried all the solution proposed here, and it doesn't work for me :-(

I have this version galaxy tab 10.1 3g ( GT-P7500 - VIP Croatia )
GT-P7500_VIP_P7500BUKL1_P7500VFGKK4_P7500BUKK4


And when i said i have tried ALL versions of CWM proposed here ( even famous 5.5.0.4 ), and screen rolling problem persist.

Luckily, i have found original stock ROM to download ( about 500 mb ), extract recovery.img, make recovery.tar.md5 and flash it with ODIN.

Stock recovery.img works OK.

Any ideas how to solve this ??
Does anyone have some smart suggestion, because it is obvious i can't try any other custom ROM, because of this screen rolling problem ??

Can somebody try to explain me why is this happening, maybe i can help.

Cheers !

Did you try "ClockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4_P75xx.tar" from the first post?

I also own GT-P7500 and only the above custom recovery doesn't cause rolling screen problem for me. Any other custom recoveries I tried do.

I also want to know what causes this problem. Apparently there is something in all those custom recoveries that causes it, except in the above one, but what?

Had success, with 5.5.0.4 with the European stock no recovery rolling or ROM boot rolling. Flashed Cyanogen 9.0, Kernel 2.6.36.4, no probs in recovery but the flickering screen appears on boot up but will go away & the ROM runs (as you would expect L a d from cm) if you press the lock screen.
Also noted that a soft re-boot no flickering takes place.
Would using the info at this : - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1484304 & make a recovery from the ROM you wish to flash be possible?

not a noob but not an expert so I'll ask

None of the above fixes the scrolling screen issues.

We need a dev to do a new root that fixes the scrolling screen issue in recovery.

Would you be able to give details on your particular issues, maybe we can help!

Is it only CWM that rolls?
Is it the whole system that rolls?
Is it just after the screen goes to sleep and you turn it back on that it rolls?
Is it the immediate rolling at boot up and you hit the power button twice and it corrects itself until it is booted up again?

What have you done as far as Mods! Roms/Kernels/CWMs
Have you returned to stock & lock and are you there now?

I can confirm that the file ClockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4_P75xx.tar fixed the scrolling recovery issue on my P7500 tab on stock Android 3.2.

Thanks to all those who have contributed.

I followed the guide and it worked out installing the original stock rom for the gt-p7510 and CWD 5.5.0.4
That ROM though has no 3G support, only wifi.
I installed the official stock rom with 3G support with the above mentioned CWM version but the monitor keeps flickering. I also tried other CWM versions but still the same problem.

Flashing the original firmware (vodafone Italy http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=3&o=1&m=GT-P7500&r=1) that overwrites the CWM with the original Samsung recovery will solve the problem but you dont get all the goodies CWM comes with.

Hope someone will find a workaround for that, ICS is way better than Honeycomb.

You can also install a different cwm via rom manager I.e. the one from overcome when it gets to the rolling screen just leave it and it will reboot eventually with cwm fixed. no need to revert to stock or use Odin.

Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA

    isimobile along with pershoot has found a faster and better way of fixing this!:good:

    I suggest you use isimobile's method found " HERE !!"
    Don't forget to thank him!!! or we'll fallow you home and poop in your driveway!

    If for some reason that does not work try my method!





    Sorry Mods I wasn't sure which forum I should put this in please move if incorrect!

    A little history before I continue!

    I recently decided to Root my TELUS GT-P7510/16GB/WIFI so I went to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development Forum and fallowed S0ckM0nk3y's [ACSyndicate] [How-To] Root/Unroot The SGT 10.1 GT-P7510 USA Retail WiFi Only
    .
    Everything was going fine until I was to put it into Recovery Mode (At this point Its CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.7) to Flash Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip, but as soon as it booted into Recovery the screen was scrolling as shown here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhGm6kq_4dg&feature=player_embedded by castiel19.
    There is nothing you can do to correct this except fallow my Guide (OR) download and install the only CWM Recovery that works for us with this problem which is ClockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4_P75xx.tar
    ... I have tried all of them and this is the only one that works....For me anyways!

    I was not satisfied with this as I Purchased ROM Manager and it shows that the latest update for my device is V4.0.0.4, so I decided to try all I could to find a solution and I did.... By accident!


    Before You continue, Please back up all your personal stuff to your PC or any other media but do not leave anything you can not loose on the TAB it will be gone if you continue!



    Meat, Potatoes and Gravy!

    Follow S0ckM0nk3y's Guide HERE you want to follow the Unroot part!

    Click on the very first Blue DOWNLOAD link in his guide which will open another forum with a similar layout and click the first Blue DOWNLOAD link at the top of that guide save it to your desktop. The file is called sgt10.1_root_unroot.zip and it is 381MB. Once downloaded, extract to a new folder on your desktop, now open that new folder on your desktop and extract the ODIN3_v1.85.zip!


    Put your Tab 10.1 into Download Mode by using S0ckM0nk3y's guide.
    Open Odin3_v1.85.exe that is in the folder that you extracted the two downloads too on the desktop.
    Click the PDA button and choose P7510XABKMP_P7510UEKMP_HOME.tar.md5.
    Plug the USB into your PC
    Plug the other end into the Tab
    In the Odin Software on your PC the box below ID:COM should be yellow with stuff in it click the start button it will take a few minutes. 1min 59sec for me. once finished the Tab will reboot and do some stuff then it will reboot again to the OS.

    Your Unrooted with an to up to date stock ROM!

    This is optional but recommended! Power off your device now, and then put it in Recovery Mode.
    Once Android System Recovery comes up click "wipe data/factory reset" then click "wipe cache partition" then click "reboot system".

    Now Root using HERE and install any of the appropriate CWM Recovery versions without having the rolling screens!

    I will clean this up later it is 2am and I have to Tow a car 800km tomorrow! There are fellow members that need this so it was rushed sorry!

    I would like feedback on this as to wether it works or not for you!

    I had my wife follow this guide with her Tab that was doing the same thing and it worked for her first time, but i'm more worried that my wording might not be understood by some and if that is the case it may not work for you and i would like to help you understand!


    Update: 1

    I can not confirm this but thanks to "isimobile and vladin79" it also works on 3g P7500 version!

    Update: 2

    P7510XABKMP_P7510UEKMP_HOME.tar.md5 is now included in S0ckM0nk3y's Package! Upated this guide to reflect that change.

    Update: 3

    After you fallow this Guide and all goes well but then you notice that when your screen goes to sleep then you wake it up and it is scrambled in the center of the screen and the only way you can stop it is to reboot, follow this Guide! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1680738


    Major Update: 4 Major Thanks To "isimobile"

    Please Read his post Here I am going to test it and will post back!

    Hi Guys,

    I had the same issue, so I used this method to run ICS, thanks bugs9477!

    I then had some issues and I then reloaded 3.2 HC, then when I tried to go back to ICS, the rolling recovery was back. So with pershoot's help I got it working again in a shorter method by just flashing the bootloader.bin in odin not the complete ROM. See Below.

    This will work for first time users as well.

    odin.jpg

    Installation instructions:
    • Download bootloader.
    • Start Odin 1.85
    • Select BOOTLOADER and choose downloaded file
    • Put tab in download mode (press power+ vol down, vol up to select download mode)
    • Connect tab to PC with USB cable
    • Press Start.
    • Tab should restart itself.
    • done.

    You can download the file from here

    Hope this helps out.

    OP maybe update the first post with the instructions if you do not mind?

    Hi Guys,

    It should work now! I was just a dumb @ss sorry :eek:

    The md5 should now match and it should work.

    A while ago in pershoot's thread he posted a link to a US ICS bootloader variant and a version of CWM that worked with it. Later, he pulled the recovery because using it was causing problems. However, it doesn't roll, and installing that bootloader causes the ROM not to roll. Knowing that this recovery DID not roll with the pershoot bootloader, which is still fine and available in his CM9 p4wifi folder, I used that recovery to flash a different non-rolling recovery.

    I am using TWRP now which doesn't roll (2.2.2.0 for P7510) so what I did was this (for US ICS base...the bootloader may not work if you're not using the US stock rom):

    1) Download the latest TWRP flashable zip for your device and make sure it's on the root of your tablet
    2) Flash the pershoot bootloader variant with Odin
    3) Reboot to download, flash the (broken but doesn't roll, I think CWM non-touch 6.0.1.1) recovery with Odin
    4) Reboot to new recovery. DO NOT TAKE A BACKUP as something is wrong with the recovery.
    5) Flash your zip to root. Do NOT exit recovery. Then, immediately after, flash the TWRP recovery zip.
    6) Reboot.

    You should be good from there with non-rolling ROM and non-rolling TWRP 2.2.2.0 recovery.

    The only down side to this method is that you can't take a Nandroid backup of your unrooted rom. That didn't really matter to me though, if I wanted to go back to unrooted I'd simply flash the stock firmware.

    Please don't yell at me if this doesn't work for you - it worked for me on the US ICS (LPL) base and you should have some idea of what you're doing before you undertake this even though it isn't really complicated. You can find the TWRP flashable zip in the Dev forum easily, and the bootloader in pershoot's CM9 folder (droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm9/p4wifi/). You may have to dig a bit to find the recovery though...I think pershoot said the recovery in his CM10 folder works. Check his thread/posts (his kernel thread) to be sure

    EDIT: Come to think of it...I suppose you could probably just Odin the newest TWRP with that bootloader. LOL

    I have P7500 model, which is 3G version. I decided to root it and installed several CWM recoveries, but all of them caused a scrolling screen when booted in recovery. Then I came to your guide and installed the ClockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4_P75xx.tar from your first post. It worked like a charm and the screen was steady as a rock. No more scrolling. Then I used it and rooted my tab.

    Thank you so much for your efforts!
