I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab II 10.1 (P5100) with Android 4.1.2.
I tried the file that is uploaded at the first message of the thread and I got an error message:
Has anybody managed to root the P5100 with this method?

This method is old and written for the original ROM, Honeycomb. It doesn't work for anything newer than that. Several YouTube videos have methods.

Anyone figure out Rooting Newest OS on SCH-i905 10.10 Tab?
Guys. Nothing is out there. I have the Verizon Galaxy tab 10.1 sch-i905 and I get the verification failed.
The methods I see to turn off verification are for older tablets. I need to root this device so I can install Kali linux on it.
Please anyone that has the ACTUAL method help me. I'd pay for your time.
This guide was written for Honeycomb, so you'll have to skim through the posts to see how others have modified this method to work with ICS. I no longer have a Tab 10.1 so I'm unable to help troubleshoot
Maybe this will help?

ezTab NB-1460 10.1" Root please
Hello everyone,
I purchased an 'ezTab NB-1460-8GB' 10.1" from a stall.
I was told it has a Samsung screen and hardware, but custom (China) made case and charger, hence cheap.
It worked OK for sometime, I added a few programs, downloaded stuff and it become very, very sluggish, I tried to reset it to factory settings, but it did not work, so I would like to root it and update its software.
At the moment it has the following:
Can anyone help me please?

This method will not work for you. It's very specific for a particular device and android version. Sorry but I don't know where to send you to find what you need.

You could try framaroot or towel root. I'm not saying that they will work but you could try it.

Olivier,
Towel Root worked, thank you.
Did not try Framaroot.
Any late ROM recommendations?

Sadly no since you don't have a real galaxy tab 10.1. But now that you're rooted you can remove all the bloatware and install greenify.

I used Kingo to root. http://www.kingoapp.com/
For ROM, try nameless. The homemade works great!

I've tried this numerous times and am not able to install the TWRP.
There is no error message or symptoms of issues but when I restart, it's the stock recovery.
I have the SCH-I905 running 4.0.4 Kernel 3.1.10 (if that makes a difference).
Is there something I'm missing, or am I in the wrong thread?

Tab not recognized
Needing some help guys. I've tried numerous cables, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, reboots, factory resets. I can't get my computer to recognize my tab. Keeps saying USB device not recognized from any USB port I try. Is there any possible way to root without a PC? I've tried towelroot, and any other .apk I could find with no luck. Any help is appreciated

45If this is some sort of duplicate post, please delete it, but I could not find something like this anywhere. I want to share my method for gaining root access + installing CWM recovery on the Rogers Galaxy Tab 10.1. This should work on other variants, those who can confirm please comment and I'll update the post.
Update:
Now confirmed on WiFi model AND Verizon Model (thanks Rockaholic94 and badogg for testing).
Rooting:
1. Download this file and rename it as "update.zip"
2. Put the update.zip file on the root of your tab's SD card
3. While your tab is powered on or off (doesn't matter), hold the volume down (volume up on VZW Model) + power key to bring up the option to select recovery mode or download mode.
4. Choose the recovery mode option (box picture) by hitting the volume down key then selecting with the volume up key.
5. Now that you're in the factory android recovery menu, choose "Install update from SD card".
6. Highlight the update.zip file using the volume buttons and the power button to select.
7. Confirm Superuser is in your list of apps
Let it do its thing and it is now rooted.
Installing Clockworkmod:
1. After confirming the Superuser app is installed and you in fact have root access, download ROM Manager from the Play Store.
2. Open ROM Manager and choose "Install Clockworkmod Recovery"
3. Select "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" to make sure the right recovery is installed, and wait a minute or so as it installs.
4. Towards the end, ROM Manager will prompt you for root access to complete the install.
Congrats, you now have root access and CWM Recovery.
This was tested on my 3G device running 3.2 for the record, but it should work on 3.1 also. Please let me know what devices you've been successful using this method for, and remember the "thanks" button too.
Guide was written by myself, but I grabbed the root file from this post on Android Authority. Props to whoever the original owner of that file is... Also, not responsible for bricking devices etc etc etc.2I'm not a huge ODIN fan myself. I only have experience with ODIN from my 7" Galaxy Tab but I like simple methods that don't require a computer. I completed this method by simply using Dropbox to transfer the root file to my device, the built-in file manager to rename the file, stock recovery to flash it, then CWM via ROM Manager from the Play Store......... NO WIRES 2
Actually this does not work with ICS but there are other threads that have root methods for ICS. Also a few YouTube vids on rooting GTab with ICS.
Sent from my SCH-I905 using XDA Premium HD app2Method no longer works in Stock ICS
Stock ICS no longer allows update.zip (default /mnt/sdcard [=/sdcard] location) to be loaded via Stock Recovery main menu update from external (SD card).
External storage is defaulted to "/sdcard", which is not the external USB Host drive (standard recovery mode, that is), neither does it seem to be the highest non-root accessible location. I will probably go the ODIN/CWM route now, as this super easy method now seems to be locked out by Samsung's finest.
EDIT:
ODIN/CWM did not work out, as first a scrolling CWM menu, and then, after pershoots bootloader installation a scrolling wakeup screen.
/sdcard is present, (soft)link to /mnt/sdcard (or vice versa, still have to look) when ICS is running, but it looks like it is only a temporary link, created during boot-up. Standard recovery of ICS does not see /sdcard, or maybe looks for another filename (i.e. not "update.zip") to load. I am not sure, but the end-result is that standard recovery in ICS does not allow for this method to work as described.
