Is it safe on latest update?

G'day,

I have an unrooted retail tab 10.1, with the latest updates already installed (it came that way). Meaning i have he latest touchwiz interface. I watched the video and i noticed the tab used in the video is the older interface.. is it possible to use this root on the latest retail software?

My tab version:

GT-P7510

Android version 3.1

Kernel version 2.6.36.3

build # HMJ37 P7510XWKG7

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Heppieboeddah:
Yes it is possible
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Tiemen86:
Thnx!

Dankjewel! ;)

Rooted succesfully :)

Thank god someone who can post a root process that isn't a cluster f*ck. I've been waiting for this exactly. I do just have one question I can't check my build or anything left my tablet at home today. I have a 10.1 from Best Buy and I did the firmware upgrade that was released shortly after. Pretty sure it will work but just would like double confirmation. Don't want to brick it the wife will be pissed lol. Once I get home I'll post it's info as well.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Heppieboeddah:
If it doesnt work it wont harm the tab.

But it works.

Just follow the guide as described
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Onumis:
Where do I check to verify the root worked?

*edit never mind just installed rom manager and setcpu to test.

Hi,

With a brand new 10.1 tab that has not gone through the setup process (e.g., choose language, etc.), can I flash the custom recovery, do a nandroid backup before rooting the tab? Would there be any issues?

Thanks in advance for the feedbacks,

Clockwork mod?

I have the clockworkmod premium version. Can i flash the recovery of the latets version?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] albundy9999:

Can i run this on my tablet to.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] albundy9999:
Someone was able to root without flashing the custom recovery. All the person did:

Just download tabrooteasy.zip to the tablet. Unzip it. Extract Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip to the root folder.

Shut the tablet off. Turn it on holding power and volume down. Select the install zip icon. Install the zip you just extracted. Done.

Does it really work that way?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Kasha:
I've rooted the device using this method and everything works great, except for one thing - Superuser says "binary outdated" and when I try to update it, it says "Gaining root access... fail!". I don't know if it's necessary or not to update, but it doesn't let you remember the choice for the root access for the application, which is a bit of annoyance.

Other apps work fine. I've re-applied the zip but to no success.

What might be the problem?

Actually, I found the answer, it's here:

Hi guys great tutorial, simply best ever. Quick question I have been using my tab for a while now so downloaded apps n set it up just right, but now wanna root my tab.

My question is will rooting delete my custom settings and apps or am I good and can go ahead and root. Read the whole thread, no one mentions about backing up an unrooted tab. As most backups can only be done on rooted tabs.

So will I loose my data and apps? Plus help.

Thanks.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] andrewilley:
Do Samsung's updates revert existing rooted machines to a non-rooted status, or once you're rooted is it safe to allow updates to occur?

Andre
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
After I rooted and updated to latest firmware, I re-ran the root zip file.

I used root checker to check root, and I still had root, but my superuser keeps failing to gain root access. So I'm not too sure. Maybe it's just a superuser problem.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kaimerabellerophon:
Will this method of rooting works on 3g wifi model? If not please suggest some solution.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] species8472_rules:
How did you accomplish this as the stock recovery cannot access /SDCARD (at least on my Tab)?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] rickyq12:
it's only for the wifi. You could probably find a root method in the 3G/wifi threads. OP says wifi only. I have the wifi only and used this method with no issues.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
I rooted on stock recovery as well. If I remember, I think I selected apply update from SD card, then choose zip.

On the latest firmware, this method seems to root, but PREVENTS superuser binary from updating. Shouldn't be much of a problem, apart from the regular pop up to update the binary as all my root apps work just fine.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] yash1229:
Will this work on the GT-P7500 3G + wifi 16 GB model?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
I used this on my 3G model, seems to work fine. I'm not liable for any damages if it doesn't work on yours
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] djR3Z:
Did you just swap the recovery for the 3G recovery? Or did you use the one included? If so, do you still have 3G?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
I have no idea what you mean by swapping recovery. I used this on my stock recovery, and I still have 3G/H+/GPRS

I took a lot of risk by resetting back to factory default and trying every single root, all seem to work fine, including allidoiswin.zip

This root.zip seems to be similar to the 3G root.zip

EDIT: If you meant installing clockworkmod recovery than rooting, no, I did not flash CWM before applying the root.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] predator21:
thnx for the guide bro
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dalhoff:
didnt get my tab rooted, when i open Titanium Backup it says it need root access.

But i follwed the guide and all things completed like in the video !!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
Did you run superuser and update your SU Binary and download busybox after running the root?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dalhoff:
I installed busybox, but havent run the superuser thingy where do i find that? And by update the SU binary do you mean the .zip file?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
Super user should be automatically installed when you root it.

If you can't find it, go android market and download.

SU binary is related to superuser. There will be a prompt to update it if its outdated.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dalhoff:
Well superuser was installed ive updated it now and the SU Binarys updated as well.

Titanium Backup still tells me that it cant get root access :mad:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
Try this.

Go into superuser and press the wrench icon at the top right.

Look for "automatic response" which is located at the top.

At the pop up, select allow and save that setting.

Try launching your root apps now and let me know the result.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dalhoff:
Now ive got it to work, dont know why i didnt update the SU Binary before but its up to date now and im rooted :)

thx for you help acefiredx
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] acefiredx:
You can try Root Checker from Android Market, though its buggy.

I used to have a similar problem like you, but I found a way to overcome.

Everytime before launching a root app, go into superuser and update the binary.

Select check for binary updates, then select update anyway.

After doing that, try running root apps and root checker

Stock ROM for P7500XXKG3?

I'd like to root my tab 10.1 but it's a UK 3G model purchased from Vodafone. There seems to be no branding but it may be possible some stock apps have been removed at Vodafone's request.

The Bootloader version is showing as P7500XXKG3 but samfirmware doesn't have this version firmware available so that I can download it and keep it as a backup to unroot.

Does anyone else with a UK Vodafone 3G tab, or anyone with some idea know if an alternative firmware is suitable to restore the unit to 'vodafone stock' or a pure 3G stock firmware?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cardsharp234:

Looks like 2 of us here have rooted it without issues. I've been using my rooted T859 without issues for almost a week now. I understand being worried but no issues here. After you Odin CWM onto the tablet you can do a nandroid backup before rooting for extra security, that is what it did.

i'm probably getting the 32 GB for christmas from best buy (the only thing i told the wife i wanted), so i'm reading everything so i can to be ready to hit the ground running on the 25th

should i update OS first (if there is an update) and then root, or root then update? or doesnt it matter?

i mainly rooted my htc aria phone to get rid of att bloatware and be able to install 3rd party apps right from sd card, but dont most new gadgets let you install 3rd party apps like swype and amazon market right off the bat? is there bloatware on the samsung tab to get rid of? just seeing if its actually worth doing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dcorrea:
Meant to say just rerun the root.zip through CWM and it will re-root the tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AceTrader:
Get the update first. Then root.

Even if you root first before update, the update will unroot your tab.

Yes, you can side load the apps if you allow the installation from unknown sources in the settings.

Yes lots of bloatware are there. it also depends which all you use.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dh4645:
thanks...and i meant amazon app market. ha. need that free app of the day...when its a good one.

so the root method on first page still works after update? lots to read in the next 1.5 weeks.

does titanium backup pro do the same things as backing up with nandroid does? or would it be worth buying?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AceTrader:
Yes, root method is same after the update.

Titanium backups the apps and all its data(like game progress, settings etc.)

Nandroid backup backups the entire tab as it is(including rom).

Titanium is very useful if you want to flash custom roms and then restore all your apps and settings.

I rooted my tablet on the weekend. Very easy instructions. I was rooted within 10 mins. For some reason my PC would not let me connect to the tablet via USB, so had to use dropbox to copy across the recovery CWM file.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] andrewilley:
So after an OTA update, CWM will still be installed, yes? Which presumably means that 90% of the work is still done - all you need to do is to reboot into CWM Recovery and reinstall the same Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip file again? And you won't even need a PC if you've kept the zip file on the tablet.

Or have I misunderstood?

So I ran the latest Samsung firmware update on my daughter's tablet first :) and it installed OK and it did remove CWM as expected...

... however root does still seem to be active (Samba fileshare is still working fine for example, and I can run the SuperUser app and SU notifications pop up on the screen when needed). Is there anything particular I should check with regards to root, as it does look to me like it has survived the update. (I assume re-running the root ZIP won't cause any problems if I just want to be certain)

Andre
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AceTrader:
If su notifications are working then you still have root. But you can confirm again by typing su in Terminal Emulator app.

Also there is no harm in re-running the root.zip
