You could try that prerooted firmware or you could go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and search for your firmware and download it. Then extract the recovery.image. Take note that what you find there may be an updated version than what you currently have.

---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ----------

Extract the recovery.tar.md5 from the zip. Flash it using ODIN as outlined in the OP.

Let me know your results please.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
i have the firmware on the pc, how do i extract the recovery?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
You can use 7zip to extract it (it works better than the Windows utility). You can also use tar if you know how. You may get an error about info at the end of the file, just ignore it. Send me the recovery.img.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
I flashed and it booted to Android system, then I used ADB reboot recovery and (I guess) the stock recovery appeared, then I rebooted and it won't pass the samsung logo lol
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
Here is the recovery
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Flash this stock recovery and make it works before we continue. I have not modified it, only tar'd it so you can flash it in ODIN.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
It won't boot at all now?

EDIT -- and it looks just like stock recovery
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
Done it already :)
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
I still cant get it to go to recovery.

I tried turning it off a few times and hold the power and volume up at the same time. Nothing..
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Have you tried holding HOME, Volume Up, and POWER.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
adb reboot recovery didn't work too, last time it showed a recovery

---------- Post added at 11:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 AM ----------

Just did that, blank screen (Nordic recovery)
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Did it bootloop or just not show the recovery menu...with the older zImage you have to hit the down button to get it to show the menu.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
Yes. Still nothing..
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Can you be a little more descriptive.

Nothing - as in bootloop or blank screen or stuck on Samsung logo, or it looks like recovery menu isn't showing.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
It turns on 2 times saying galaxy tab 3 then goes off again..
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
It got stuck there, no bootloop... that was on the nordic... I reflashed the modified one and pressed vol up, home and power and same thing happened :(, and after a while i notices that there was a REALLY thin green line from side to side of the blank screen O.o

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

Ok I reflashed Nordic, adb reboot recovery and I got the "Android system recovery(3e)" it has the selection difficulties
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
I don't know what to say guys, I didn't modify the Nordic recovery at all. It should work.

My suggestion would be to download and update to the latest firmware for your region. losElvis, the recovery you provided was built in June, but I see that there is a later firmware version on Sammobile.

Sorry I can't get it working for you...it works great on my T210R.

---------- Post added at 12:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 PM ----------

Yes, that one is untouched and has the old zImage (hence the navigation difficulties).
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
Nordic actually boots but with the weird controls haha, gonna try to boot the modified again

Modified just booted :D there goes my noob question: Theres no backup/restore option and Install zip and etc... its because its not CWM?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
No, this isn't really a full custom recovery with all the extra options. This modified stock recovery will allow us to flash zip files signed with the google test keys, so we can flash mods and maybe custom roms (not sure what else).
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
Alreaddy on it.. Here is the new recovery file from the new update for the nordic. Do your magic..
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
Is it likely that we get CWM or TWRP? :(
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Here is un-modified newer Nordic recovery. Let's make sure it works first.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Someone better than me will have to figure it out. If we are indeed limited by the size of the recovery, it will be difficult.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] trazfer:
This didnt fix my navigation issue. I think ill do an experiment later.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
It still dont go to recovery.

Just says galaxy tab 3 2 times then just shut off again..:crying:
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
I would flash the whole firmware package and see if that "magically" fixes your recovery issues.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
I did flash the whole firmware with odin 3.07 and then flashed the new nordic recovery, but no luck..:crying:
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Did the recovery work before you flashed the nordic recovery (immediately after flashing whole firmware)?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
no, the recovery did not work. The only time i have seen recovery todag was when i flashed T210_SAMSUNG_RECOVERY_SUPERSU-1.55_BUSYBOX-1.22.0.tar.

But it had navigation problems, Later i tried the universel root with that recovery, and got kernel panic...
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
Don't you think there should be a thread going on about this recovery? That will maybe bring more devs to work on this tab
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Yeah, we probably should stop congesting this thread.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
Yes, thats a good idea. A recovery thread and a root tread.. None of them work for the sm-t210:crying:

Its a big problem that we cant get some custom rom yet..
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] FiliBrushedRed:
Mine is a SM-T210 and it worked xS that's so weird...

What about this?

http://builder.clockworkmod.com/
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] gr8nole:
Already tried that builder and compiled one from CM sources myself...neither worked
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] loselvis777:
I now made a new thread for the recovery. Now i just need one for the root..:eek:
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] trazfer:
I flashed the original firmware of t210r from sammobile and used the attached recovery. i flashed the universalroot signed and it worked.

i tried the modified recovery with navigation fix. but the navigation issue still persist. and i tried to flash the universalroot signed and it failed with error called STATUS 7

THEREFORE, the recovery attached is the only modified recovery that is working that i know. just sharing what i tested.

On my german Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (SM-T210) it shows signature verification error, when using stock recovery.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] Jamison904:
Yes, you are using stock recovery. You need a custom recovery.

Rooting my Samsung Galaxy SII was no problem, even a chinese tablet could be rooted easily by Bin4ry's script http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460.

If Samsung continues to make it harder and harder to gain root, then I'll switch to another brand.

Back to your answer: If I understand you right, there's no way around odin to flash pre-rooted firmware?

Any chance to use a temporary cwm, like it was possible on the Galaxy SII?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] Jamison904:
Root and custom recovery are way different. This will give you root. You will still have a stock unmodified recovery. Look at the other threads in this section that say recovery. Read them and choose one and follow their instructions to gain a custom recovery to flash mods and ROMs

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] :
I know the difference. But I don't want to increase my flash counter and on the galaxy s2 it was possible to gain root without using Odin, one way was a update.zip with a temporary cwm, you could then root. So maybe this is possible as well...
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] Jamison904:
At this time this is not an option. It is either this or use Odin to flash a recovery then in recovery flash the latest SuperSu.zip or my ROM.

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] tunka74:
its possible install recovery without root and after install your rom?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] MasterPhW:
Of course it's possible to install a custom recovery and then the custom rom, which already has root without rooting the stock rom first.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] Jamison904:
Sure. Download CWM and extract it. Then moved the recovery.img to the root of your internal SD. Then open terminal and

dd if=/sdcard0/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] tunka74:
emmm terminal= adb? its possible with odin or other? or guide for instal cwm with adb?

and after i can enter in cwm and instal infamus rom?

I read couple of pages on this thread. I am wondering whether it is possible to root the SM-T210R without formatting the device?

I want to do this and then install "GL to SD" program to transfer large programs to sd card. Apparently, rooting is the only way to do thi.

Thank you for your help.

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] Si14:
Thank you. Sorry, I am not very familiar with the steps.

So, if I understand correctly, "Flash" means I lose my current data and it installs a new "ROM"?

I downloaded the two firmwares given in the first post of this thread (each about 1GB), but have not installed yet. Are you referring to those two? If that is the case, I assume with 1GB of size, they will install a new operating system.

Thanks again for your help.

2- Sorry this might not be the good place, but do you know how I can get install (or move) large apps to sd card in Galaxy Tab 3 (7inch)?

3- after following the steps given in your link, does my device consider as "ROOT"?

Triangle Away/ Modified reset

Hiya, So my tab is running quite nicely, but I just realized... samsung got a little smarter.. and implemented a feature not implemented in my old yp-gi1... the blocking of OTA updates on modified devices. How can I remove that modified flag, and does TriangleAway work on my device? and does anyone know if the SM-t210/t210R will receive a JB 4.3 or KitKat 4.4 update soon?

Hi,

If I understand properly.. applying this pre-rooted firmware on my SM-T210 will make me lose warranty. But if I later update to an original stock firmware, then I would lose root and re-gain warranty from Samsung ? Am I correct ?

And in such case (ie with prerooted firmware), we can't have anymore OTA updates ?

Last question (for now..) : is it possible to update to prerooted firmware to gain root, then apply rootkeeper to save root, then update to original stock firmware to reestablish warranty and then ask rootkeeper to re-root the tablet ?

Reading the 37 pages of this thread, I'm starting wondering if chosing this tablet was a good choice compared to some chinese tablets wat same price (but with no expectation from warranty ..)..

you know this is getting anoying so i finally fixed it and got it back to stock, but i bought a 8gb one so my gaming is limited, with 32gb, im gonna try it again but this time i think i know where i went wrong, i DL the t210 one instead of the t210r, and used that one first t210 into a t210r which gave me the gittery flickers, so ima test it out again and try t210r first,

Having the same flickering problem howd u fix ?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] afadel:
I fixed by using Samsung Kies software (download it from Samsung web site).

Then you put the tab into download mode and in Kies you go to Tools->Restore original firmware (or something similar).

That puts the original firmware back and you obviously lose the root.

I don't know the flicker is happening and haven't tried yet another way to root it as the tablet is not mine and the owner wanted to play with it a bit before (he hadn't even seen the tablet since I bought it for him hehehe).

Odin is a pc program, you run it from the computer (windows, for Linux or Mac you'll need to use a program called heimdall by glass echidna...). But once you download it to the computer, just run it from the download folder.
