I am a bit confused. When I am in recovery mode, do I have to select "install update from SD card" or "instal zip from SD card"?

Thank you very much and sorry for the dumb question.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
Install zip from SD card.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] vickstix:
somehow unrooted after it was rooted

So I used this method on my samsung galaxy tab 10.1 wifi Adroid 3.2 and it worked perfectly. I was using an app that required root access for about 2 hours, and it was working great. Kept getting a notification that superuser binary was out of date, while I was working with the other app.At first I just ignored it, then I finally clicked on it, and it started updating, but it hung up, when it got to the part about geting root access. I waited and waited, and it kept trying to gain root access, so I finally killed it, and rebooted. Then I went back to the app I was using before that, which needed and was granted root access earlier, and then it no longer had root acces anymore, as well. So, I ran the update again, and still can't gain root access anymore. I also had purchased the clockworkmod app, when I installed rom manager. I paid for it, because I didn't know how to manually install it. But it got an error, when I tried to flash it. :( Any ideas as to why superuser could have unrooted my android, and HOW can I root it again?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
There is an app in the market to repair superuser after a binary update.

Superuser Update Fixer

Try that first. If it doesn't work you might as well un install it and go back to install update . zip again.

After you get everything back install OTA Root keeper from the market. That way you can backup root and restore it if needed.

Thanks in advance for anyone that can help me !
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
Are you rooting ICS? This method is for the HC rom and I think that's the only time I've heard of the signature error.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MGriffith:
I think the error is because they are trying to root a GT with Jelly Bean... this update will NOT work on JB ROMs

Thanks Michael, but I did install the update fixer and it still wouldn't root again, so I uninstalled superuser, and installed it again with update then installed the root update again and it rooted again, except now some apps say they can't gain root, and two apps are able to. So I gave up. :confused:

thank! :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
Did you put it in the root directory.

If you copied it over using your usb then you should know where you put it. If you downloaded it it would be in your download directly. I keep a copy on Dropbox so I can pull it off when needed.

And after root make sure you pull OTA Root Keeper from the play store to save root.

Does the root method work for the indian p7500 with android 4.0.4 on it?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
This root method was developed before ICS 4.04. I was never able to get it to root ICS but it doesn't mean somebody else hasn't gotten it to work.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mahendru1992:
So what method is recommended for rooting the tab with 4.0.4 roms?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
To be honest I have no idea. I've tried various methods described in the stickies and even some YouTube videos with no luck. I have always just used Oden to go back to 3.1 HC and then use this method to root it. Then used OTA Root keeper (from the play store) to retain root and then let the Tab install the OTA updates, then used Root Keeper to restore root each time. After getting the last update which is ICS. In can then flash any of the JB ROMs since I have the ICS radios. (Needed for 4G) sounds complex but it's really not. But it's a clean install.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] eushaun99:
Use this http://db.tt/XwaGyTwz. It works for my p4 so I suppose it should work for your Verizon (if I'm not mistaken you have the Verizon version right?). I actually found another pretty neat way to root it. In stock ics, flash cwm recovery, then flash any zip (a simple example would be this modded YouTube apk http://db.tt/wOpgQ2UG). When you reboot, it will say root access lost, fix? Then select yes and cwm will root your tab for you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
Thanks and I pulled the zip for next time. Where did it come from? As far as CWM goes I'm not aware of it rooting the device but it does alert you when an update wants to overwrite recovery and gives an option to stop it, which retains CWM recovery, otherwise you're back to stock recovery. I'll check it out.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stinky73:
I think easiest way to root is download appropriate Odin flashable cwm recovery from droid basement here, http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3054 then simply use either root.zip mentioned a few posts earlier or go here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2390454 for Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_ root.zip

Whole process takes about 5 minutes. Then best to install SuperSU from play store, open it and let it uninstall Superuser as SuperSU is more stable (but you don't have to do this, just my advice)

Do this all the time on 7510 and 7500 variants in Europe but should work with all the north American models as well.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] eushaun99:
Which zip do you mean? The root zip was from some rooting tutorial I forgot where was it. The YouTube zip is from XDA. I also didn't notice it too, until I flashed stock ICS and cwm recovery with Mobile Odin and flashed a random zip file. Upon reboot, it said root access may be lost, which is true since I haven't rooted it, and there was an option to root my tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MichaelMcC:
In your previous post you had a link to a file, "root.zip"..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stinky73:
Here's a root.zip i use just renamed so i know what i've used it on....

Anyone know of a thread where this works on ICS versions as I have been combing over thread after thread after thread for the past two days and cannot find anything that will successfully root my Verizon Tab10.1 SCH-I905 and would love to finally be able to do this! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Gil81:
I'm looking for a guy right now for the same thing... so far a found an older stock rom to get him back up and running as he flashed something bad and is down...

I have also found a working CM 10.1 rom for you're device on droidbasement... since I don't have this device.. I'm learning as I search, so it's slowing me down... but once I get the specifics I should be able to put something together..

My PC is down right now so I'm doing this off my tab, so that's not helping.. lol

I can link you to the droidbasement rom if you'd like... you need to be on the latest ICS stock rom for LTE function to work after the CM 10.1 install... which you probably are it looks like...

I'm not sure how stable it is as I haven't run it, so read and proceed with caution.... or hang tight and I might come up with a rooted ICS kernel you both can flash that will root you're stock roms...

Let me know what ya think..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] yakatoy:
Thanks for your quick reply! I will hang tight to see if you can come up with something that is pretty stable as I am still learning a lot with rooting. Thanks again!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Gil81:
Wow... this tab doesn't have a lot out there... but I did find a way for you to root and stay stock or even root and keep cwm recovery... whew.

With that said... Man I don't have this device and the threads are ancient, but I read through most of the thread and it looked solid.. as well as sounds solid.. It comes from a known kernel/rom Dev that is a genius.. lol

Here is the link.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1888755

Now when you go to that thread it is talking about updating to the latest version... if you're on it. Then just skip down to the part about flashing cwm recovery via Odin... Don't forget to put the root/superuser zip on you're sdcard before you Odin the recovery...

Because it looks like once the recovery is flashed you need to boot to it before the tab boots and replaces it with the stock recovery..

I'm not sure how to boot you're device to the bootloader to pick recovery, but on the Wi-Fi only version.. you hold the power button and the volume down button until you see the Samsung screen, then let go the power button and keep the volume down button held until you see the bootloader screen. It will then show a page ( landscape ) that has two choices.. the one on the right is odin/download mode and the one on the left is stock or custom recovery ( depending on what you have )..use the volume down to switch between the two and volume up to pick/choose...

I guess when you Odin the recovery you can not check auto-reboot...but I always have, as I've not needed not to.. as for the other settings in Odin for this device... I'm sure you can search and find what they should be... but the only thing I ever check is auto reboot...

I know this sounds sketchy.. if you don't feel comfortably just hang tight... I'm not done looking yet... but my little boy is up and trying to give me a stroke... lmao..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] yakatoy:
The biggest issue that I am running into, and same with the link you mentioned, is that it keeps giving me a "E:signature verification failed" upon flashing. Any idea how to circumvent this?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Gil81:
Stock recovery won't flash zips...you need cwm or twrp recovery for you're specific device... You will also have to use Odin on a PC to flash it.

So ive just turned on my phone to browse the web using ICS Browser + and on each and every page i open i get a voice telling me which page im on........

If i click a link then the voice reads out the link and im taken to the next page......

If i click the search bar on my home screen and type 'dinosaurs' (example) and hit enter im taken to google and the voive says "dinosaurs - google search"

Ive killed all programs/rebooted my phone and still it persists..... even tried on stock browser too.

Im on International stock 1.28 if it makes a difference!

Any idea whats going on and how i can turn this off?

UPDATE - played around with a few settings and i made sure that the 'talkback' feature in 'accessibilty' was turned off but still i got the voice.

Remembered that i installed 'Widgetsoid' a little while ago and tried turning off its notification ability in the same menu as 'talkback' and the voice went away.

Perhaps there is a conflict here and having 'widgetsoid' allowed in this menu somehow enables 'talkback' to run even if its not checked in the box........

Very strange lol
[HTC One X] Meltus:
Haha I had the exactly same problem when I first got my Galaxy Nexus, It's incredibly irritating and annoying.

It's a bug in ICS; when something is ticked in the Accessibility menu other ones randomly activate too! As far as I know, there's no way to properly fix it. ><

Unlock your Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket Instantly

I've notice that there are free apps in the Market that are able to unlock some versions of the Samsung Galaxy S series. Unfortunately after much research I forced to the conclusion that the Skyrocket is not one of the supported devices by those free apps.

Shopping around for an IMEI unlock code yielded nothing less than US$24.50. That was until I turned to Ebay. There are several solutions offered there but the one that appealed at an unbeatable price and 100% success rate was from the seller "aprivate".

Your phone will be unlocked via USB with a few clicks of the mouse Instantly. Absolutely seamless service.

Head on over to ebay and search for the seller aprivate or check out their website UnlockClient.com Unlock solutions are NOT limited to the Skyrocket but you can get all your models unlocked their instantly too.

They have great offers which despite my extreme satisfaction is another reason that I am taking the time out to write this review.
