Galaxy Tab - ****Noob Rooting Guide****

[zakzad]

Hi guys,

I have a question regarding the GT-P1000. I did searches before but Im just wondering about one small thing.
I have this GT running 2.2 froyo. Is it possible to install CWM on froyo? and which makes more sense , is it to root the device first and then upgrade to gingerbread or the other way around ?
Thanks in advance.

It is possible but cwm is tied to the kernel, so you have to find a cwm kernel that match your froyo, which will be difficult.

Follow my signature to overcome method.
However, jump to the page 7 of the guide.
Instead of rooting then upgrade, you just upgrade to GB-stock-safe v5, then install overcome kernel 4.0 and you have cwm.
Then use that to flash overcome ROM if you want GB rooted ROM.
Or directly flash cm9/10/ AOKP/paranoid/miui or anything.
All per rooted open source android ICS/JB.

Why don't you just flash a rooted Rom for P1010?

How do you root the gt-p7500 4.0.4?

 

[priyana]

ask in P7500 forum?

 

[Joe-Tech]

I don't know if this is the right place, but my question is " do you guys have a root method yet for the new samsung galaxy tab 3.8.0 (SM-T310) looking everywhere but can't find nothing yet. Thanks looking forward for an answer.

 

[priyana]

You mean the stuff that is just released to the market 3 days ago?
Doubt you can find a mod yet.

Since @Joe-Tech is asking about his Tab 3 8" I will ask the same question for the Galaxy Tab 3 7" (SM-T210R) WiFi only tablet. Will this method work for rooting?

you have your own forum.
Methods in P1000 forum should be used for P1000 models only

Now that you have the tab recognized by the computer, you don't need kies anymore. Its just for drivers. Now you need either heimdall or odin to flash a custom rom. Just a little more research for you.
