***WARNING***

Before you do this, remember that it's your $500+ toy and your responsibility, not mine. I'm just this guy, you know?

Here's a quick way to get Clockworkmod on a locked (and even unlocked) Tab:

-Get this ODIN flashable CWM 4.0.0.4 for GTab 10.1 WiFi. This is only for the WiFi model and will boot to a black screen on any other model. If you have an LTE, you must use the image in this post.

-Follow this procedure, but instead of flashing the file listed there use the one you just downloaded

Congrats, you are now running CWM. If you want to return to stock retail use this image instead.

Image creation procedure detailed in the last three steps here.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] dsh897:
Nice thx bro. Some really good stuff from you lately
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] mzimand:
Pokey,

Once I do this mod and have CWM running will I be able to flash files via CWM?

I have a locked bootloader and am not able to select a zip to flash when I am in the stock recovery.

I guess what I am asking is if I do your mod will I be able to use CWM to flash the root zip so I can root my tab?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] agozie:
Super thanks!!

It worked like charm in my locked retail 10.1!!! I've also installed su, busybox etc. Titanium backup works with su!!

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] agozie:
Yes, Just did it!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] mzimand:
Did you have to flash the exploit zip after or were you rooted after odin installed CWM?

Did you have the debugging mode checked when using odin?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] agozie:
I installed the exploit zip after odin using the CWM. I put it in download mode as described.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] mzimand:
Has anybody else used this method on a retail tab with the locked boot loader?

I only see one person posting that it worked for them and am wondering if anybody else has been successful?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
Is it necessary to flash a new kernel after flashing CWM in order for it to stick? Or does this permanently flash CWM?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pokey9000:
This flashes CWM permanently. This gives the same result as the other locked root procedure if you ODIN this file then flash the stock rooter .zip.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Muuhmann:
ok, i just did it myself and everything worked flawlessly.

Just run Odin, choose the zip from OP in the PDA field, leave everything else as it is.

Put the tab in download mode and flash using odin.

After that download the root exploit and flash the zip using CWM.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Itaintrite:
Stalls on SetupConnection for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] morkon:
does the locked tab allow you to flash a kernel?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] badboy68:
will this work on the first galaxy tab sgh-t849

model: gt-p1000?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pokey9000:
Yes, only the stock locked recovery prevents you from flashing a kernel, so replacing it with CWM lets you flash whatever.

Maybe this process works for the original Tab, but the image I posted here is for the 10.1 only.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] morkon:
so the ability to flash kernels means if ICS doesnt make it to the 10.1, we can get it through CM or some other ROM? Thats the only thing keeping me from buying the tab, i want to make sure its future proof, software wise.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pokey9000:
Samsung could lock down ODIN or start requiring signed kernels and ramdisks by updating the bootloader with an OTA. Even the nvflash unlocked retail and I/O Tabs aren't entirely safe since the security fuses can be blown from software. I can't see a reason why they would ever want to though since they'd piss off a lot of customers.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] morkon:
alright thanks a lot. It seems a bit odd that samsung even locked the bootloader in the first place, given that they dont lock their phones down. I'll probably end up getting one. Thanks for the help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] nikhilv.13:
noob question, but this isn't going to wipe my data is it?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
Just flashing CWM will not wipe your data, but if you plan on flashing a ROM, or the TW update then you will be required to wipe
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Cygnust:
Sorry for the noob question but how do you get in downlaod mode ?

I can't get into ?

Thanks

[edit]

ok got it, for the ones searchinng, you have to press volume up (left one) + power then when you have a little menu with two icons recovery and download simply press volume down (right one)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] nikhilv.13:
Beautiful :) Time to root my tab :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] dongabo:
this post should pinned... i have seen some ppl with locked tablets looking to root it...

people like me used this tread to unlock it
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] ipnekgs:
This worked on my locked tablet. Thank you very much.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] mzimand:
This was super easy and works great. After getting cwm on my tab I just flashers the root exploit and was rooted.

I just wanted to thank everyone and let anybody that was thinking about trying this that is worked on my 16gb retail tab with locked bootloader
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] KING SKILLZ:
when i go into odin i dont see an option to flash from sd card, or see this pda field? first time attempting, thanks for any help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
Odin is a program used on your PC
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] KING SKILLZ:
so i change the first download to an exe.?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] KING SKILLZ:
never mind got it working.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] SS2006:
Is there any benefits in this method over using ROM MANAGER to flash...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Kevin Gossett:
With ROM Manager you have to be rooted first to use it, with this method you don't.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] hackermail:
Hi everyone, I recently picked up 16g wifi retail tab with locked bootloader and I wanted to try this method. But I use a MAC and don't have a windows pc. Is there a MAC version of odin?

Thanks!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] taha_e:
Can this mod be done on 3g version? does it matter which rom we are using?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Raistlin1:
Will this method work on the new TW ROM that was just released today? (mine was sideloaded at the NYC event, I assume they are identical)

I would love some confirmation before I try, would hate to mess something up. I never rooted my Tab and it was purchased with the bootloader locked.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] cleblanc92:
Here's a "possible" lead. I don't have a MAC so please read into this before even attempting:

http://www.glassechidna.com.au/2011/devblogs/heimdall-suite-1-3-0-and-anti-squish-graphical-update/
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] knight4led:
Heimdall is accepted as a basic mulitplatform replacement for Odin. It basically works the same.

I have a Samsung Infuse 4g and I've used Odin on XP and I have Heimdall running on my Mac at home. For my purposes they have been interchangeable.

I haven't tried Heimdall with my GT10.1 yet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] OneStepAhead:
Thanks for this. I was having a hell of a time getting fastboot to work on my Tab 10.1 under windows 7 x64. Since I have an HTC device and a Samsung device I think the drivers conflict with each other. Add the Pdanet drivers into the mix and you've really got a problem. It seems I can only have 1 device working at any given time. It's a PITA. Enter: Odin. Problem solved.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] notfaded1:
I would also like answer to this question

Will this method work on tab that got locked by doing ota update to TW?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] njfoses:
Follow this method as it is a little more step by step. You shouldnt have any issues http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-hacks/how-to-root-galaxy-tab-10-1-the-easy-way/
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Claus72:
I have a GT-P7510 from Italy. I don't know if it has locked bootloader.

Can I use this procedure?

What is the version of Odin?

It's normal for reps to not know their stuff, just as for L2 support. Some L1s barely know how to use a computer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jitb:
They should get well train before to handle the service calls, right?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frosty5689:
the TF is fairly new and something completely different to ASUS's other products so some rep might have not had to do any training on it yet. Or there's the thing with some reps absolutely hating to want to setup RMA process so they make up bull**** to avoid having to set stuff up. Just call again or ask for L2 if they give you bull****. Always ask for their name and identification # first.

I have two TF101s. The right speaker blew out in my original one about 6 months ago.

Can anyone help with this issue i know there are many threads none have helped me.

Thankyou in advance:confused:
[HD2 General] tictac0566:
There are several possible reasons that the flashing process fails. Or, as it seems, the connection from your device to the PC - which might be a driver issue.

Normally, HD2 turns on ActiveSync if you want (you can select when a popup screen offers this) as soon as the device is connected to a PC through USB.

If the flashing process doesn´t run via SD card, there are also various possible reasons: Sometimes, cards bigger than 2GB don´t work, or your card is not formatted FAT32, or the naming of the ROM file is incorrect (should be leoimg.nbh). Or, your device is not a Telstra device after all?

Anyway, in order to help, there is more information from your side needed, otherwise, it´s a bit like searching a needle in a haystack.
[HD2 General] ubejd:
Like tictac0566 said

Try 2gb sdcard - make sure its fat32 formated.

Make sure battery its not under 50%.

Most important Make sure the rom your are trying to flash its for your hd2 ( best way its to download from htc - web support with serial number ).
[HD2 General] tazwik:
sd installation

i down loaded the rom. the oiginal rom is in exe extention. how do i used it to install from sd card. i gotthe rom from tmobile with serial number? where can i downlead the seperate rom file.. any link for .nbh file
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
The exe is actually an executable zip file. Rename it to. .zip from .exe and you can then open it with winzip or winrar or whatever,and inside you will find several files,one of which is ruu_signed.nbh which you extract and rename leoimg.nbh and flash with.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] champers:
