Thank You

And we have a winner! So technically I had to put the zip file on the internal memory. The directory /sdcard is on the internal memory. I am used to putting the zip files on the external sd card. Thank you very much.

Thanks to all who replied in this thread.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] charles-2012:
ShinTenken, could you clarify the steps you took to make this work? I'm struggling with the same issue on a stock 6210 with ICS. Thanks and best wishes.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ShinTenken:
Sure!

Sorry for the late reply, work has been consuming me as of late. I'll be glad to tell you the steps in which i took. Here goes:

1. Download and install Odin for Windows. Link to download can be found with an XDA Forum Search.

2. Download and install Kies for Windows. A quick Google search will lead you to the official download.

3. Open Kies. Plug in your Tab Plus. Let Kies install the proper drivers.

4. Eject your Tab Plus from Kies. Close Kies.

5. Unplug your Tab Plus from your computer.

6. Check within your settings and make sure you have the box for USB Debugging ticked. (Make sure the box has a check mark inside)

7. Turn off your Tab Plus.

8. Enter Downloading Mode. (Hold down the Power button and the Volume down button simultaneously. Continue holding the buttons down until you pass the Samsung logo and you feel some haptic feedback. Then release the Power button while continuing to hold the Volume down button. You'll soon be greeted with a warning screen. Follow the onscreen directions to continue.)

9. Once in Downloading Mode, plug your Tab Plus into your computer.

10. Open Odin.

11. Your Tab Plus should be seen by Odin as indicated by one of the white boxes on the top turning yellow.

12. Click on the box labeled PDA.

13. When the box comes up to select the file, put the .tar file from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1785862. Post #3 by Vivified. Use the file from his post.

14. Once you have selected that file, hit start on Odin and let it do its thing.

15. Once you get the completed message on Odin, it is safe to unplug your Tab Plus. Let it reboot.

16. Get the ICS Root Package form here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1777003. Post #1. Section 4, by StrumerJohn.

17. Take that zip file and put it on the INTERNAL SD CARD. I know, I'm used to putting it on the external card myself. For some reason with this version of CWM you must place it in the /sdcard directory. And ONLY that directory.

18. Enter Recovery Mode. (Steps are basically the same as Download Mode, except switch Volume down with up)

19. Once in recovery, select Install From SD Card. Navigate to the zip file you put on there. Select it.

20. Let the Root Package do its work.

21. Once it has completed, select to reboot your device.

22. Congrats, you now have root.

Confirming initial state of 6210

Thanks for your detailed post!

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus wifi-only p6210 and have applied Samsung's KIES upgrade to ICS 4.0.4. I now want to root. Just want to confirm that your procedure is applicable.

Best Regards!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ShinTenken:
No Problem!

Yes indeed. Since you already applied the update via Kies, you can skip that step in the process. You should already have the necessary drivers by virtue of the fact that you updated via Kies. Follow all of the other steps, and you'll be enjoying root.

You Are Most Very Welcome!

It is truly not a problem. Ever since I first started on the Android platform, these XDA Forums have been an indispensable tool to help me get the most out of my devices and the platform. I have been helped COUNTLESS times by the awesome members of XDA years before I even registered to join. Learned so much by just reading. Now if I can help anybody myself, I'll be glad to do so. We're all here to learn, teach and share with each other!

I hope you other guys who asked about root are now enjoying your Tab +'s rooted. :good:

Perm rooting procedure

ShinTenken - I've successfully completed the ICS update detailed by StrumerJohn and am about to try your method on GT P6210 with ICS (UK/EU 4.0.4). Your procedure seems quite different (and shorter) than the method outlined by StrumerJohn here ...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1777003

I want to use CWM for full backup/ restore (Nandroird) and also am interested in Elements HD. Are you able to do a full backup and restore using CWM after your procedure? TIA.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] wavepsyche:
UPDATE: Got required answer.

While ShinTenken's procedure did do a Perm root, I was stuck with CWM 6.0.0.8.

I've since flashed CWM 6.0.1.9 via Mobile Odin and can backup/ restore properly.

My Tab 7+ now seems ideally setup for exploring Elements :)

Can you help me I put the root zip file on the sdcard.An went i go to CWM and choose "install zip from sdcard" --> "choose zip from sdcard the only file that comes on is clockworkmod.The root.zipdoesnot show up.I need help please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] archa1c:
This is a fantastic guide.

I was able to follow it without issue through all of the steps, and everything behaved just as described.

I have CWM recovery on my tab plus, and I placed the root.zip on my tab's integrated storage.

It was discoverable in CWM, so I selected it and ran the root (got the cute little text output about the root pack having only one speed "GO!")

Rebooted tab.

Unfortunately, I launched the Root Checker app, and it says I do not have proper root access.

I have no idea what happened...

I've been through it several times now, and still no root. WTF?

Edit - FYI- My CWM version is 6.0.0.8

Try to use Framaroot APK

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2130276

Try with Frodo method.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] tcbeachy:
If I remember correctly, I had to use Odin to install a CWM recovery. Then in recovery I installed root.zip followed by the Super User apk. That was to root the stock ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] ronouel:
GTP-6210 Success with Framaroot

Galaxy Tab 7 Plus Wifi with ICS (previously upgraded from Gingerbread via KIES- US version) - total SUCCESS, zero issues I can see.

Removed external SD card first

Enabled USB debugging

Enabled install of non-Play Store Apps

Copied Framaroot to internal SD card via OTG USB cable (could also have used external SD card)

Clicked to install

Ran Framaroot

Checked box for Superuser first

Tried one exploit that came back failed (no damage), then picked another (can't remember which one, but it was not Frodo) and it rooted immediately.

Double checked with Root Checker and all is good.

I was afraid to root because of all the long forums on the different methods (and pitfalls) but was forced to do it when the copy/paste function in Android stopped working, and rooting was the first step for the only real solution. Also someone had written an app called "GotBrickbug" which scanned the tablet then assured me that if I attempted to root, I would brick the tablet. WRONG. Since a tablet that cannot copy/paste is almost useless, I did it anyway and it was a success..

A million thanks to the developer!!

Do those of you that installed google now also feels that its extremely slow?

On my bro's sensation or on my mom's galaxy note it works super fast with not even a tiny lag..

The easiest way to notice it is on the boot up..

Long press the search button to load it up and count the seconds for it to load completely.

On sensation it takes barely a second,

On my dhd its about 6-7 seconds..

Please test it too on your dhd, cuz if its also that slow im dumping this device

Do you mean voice search? Or just normal Google search? Either way it takes less than a second for both.

Have you tried adding your network's APN settings? Do a google search for your carrier's APN settings then add them under settings - wireless and netwrok - mobile networks - access point names.

my GS3 was working flawlessly for more than a month, and i use it as GPS everyday, to and from work. I use waze.

anyway i dont know what went wrong, today when i was driving, it started disconnecting every couple of minutes, in waze, in google maps...

i have GPS monitor app installed which shows in notification bar how satellites its connected to, so i could see it going to zero and back to 13-15 which is usually the case...

i have not installed any new app which should affect GPS, the only thing i installed and then uninstalled was "Apartment guide" app.

is anybody else having this issue? what can i do apart from reflash OS? by the way i am on wanamlite ROM.

thank you.

Hello all!

Here is my question,

Is there any way to open up one specific app through a proxy, so as to spoof your country location?

I'm trying to use Pandora but I live in Canada and it is not available here.

Would it be neccessary to root my phone?

I have not gotten around to it yet as it's a pain in the ass, (LG Optimus Lte Telus, P935)

Any info and help would be greatly appreciated!
[General Questions and Answers] Duckman5:
Yes, it's possible. And you more than likely need to root your device so that you can edit the iptables config. A quick google search reveals:

http://www.appbrain.com/app/proxydroid/org.proxydroid

Just try pointing it at an open proxy based here in the US. If that app doesn't fit your needs (it appears to only work for Pandora over WiFi), I'm sure there is no shortage of others.
[General Questions and Answers] Hemmy12:
Would it also be possible to change my location within my build.prop file?

I had the AT&T Galaxy S III when it came out, but ended up returning it due to the very poor LTE speeds I got in Chicago. Anyway, I did notice some lag throughout the home screens.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simmo3D:
In my experience with using both.. quad core version does seem to have a slight speed advantage. Also the latest stock ROMs seem to imptove performance, which is something the US versions dont receive (well.. as often anyway)

Thanks. That's what I thought.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ceo.mtcl:
There are tons of other thread exactly on same topic. Unless you ask our old friend jamedandmandy everyone will unanimously agree that international version is faster.

I own both, and I think international one is tad bit faster in every way.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanky887614:
the simple fact is

the international version should be faster as its a quadcore

the us version is a dualcore

the only other difference between them worth noting is the us version has 2gb ram compared to the international version that has 1gb ram

You can always reset the camera app by going to settings>applications>camera and clearing data, then it will ask any initial configuration options again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
As far as I know the CM10 camera app does not support this just yet. You can only save to the internal storage.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
This is true. There is an AOSP camera mod that allows you to change the save location to the extSD and it replaces the stock camera.(It's basically the same thing with just a few mods added in)

It is a 3rd party app but it isn't at the same time. It's quite buggy ATM tho, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1746611

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xFrozen:
I'm interesting in finding a good ROM/kernel combo for Jelly Bean. I know every phone and user has different battery life, so there is no definite answer to what's best. Therefore, I'd like to see what people are getting to try out.

Information I'm looking for:

- ROM (including version)

- Kernel (including version)

- Total up time

- Screen on time

- WiFi or mobile data (3G/4G) !!

- Brightness level

- Sync on/off

- type of battery: standard 1750mAh or extended (specify mAh)

- % used

- Apps mostly used (optional)

A few things I'd like to say: I care more about stats using mobile data (3G/4G) more than WiFi. Why? Because a phone in my opinion should be independent of WiFi for the most part. You might have great battery life with WiFi, but it might not be so great with mobile data. I mostly use my phone outside, where WiFi doesn't exist everywhere.

I'm hoping to achieve 4h screen on with 16h total up time, mobile data on and no WiFi, brightness at 40%, sync on, extended 2000mAh battery. Has anyone gotten this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] peachpuff:
That should be doable, some people have posted 6h on screen time with the stock battery, but who knows what they're actually doing when the screen is on. If you're constantly going from website to website you can drain the battery in 2 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xFrozen:
I remember I achieved 6h screen on time, mobile data on, using MiNCO ROM, but that was entirely just watching 720p videos (local, not YouTube). But I mostly want 4h screen on time consisting of mostly Facebook usage, web browsing, instant messaging, some gaming, and maybe 20-30 minutes of video.
