I would probably root first. There is always a chance that the new updates will block root and it will take a long time to root again.

If you want the OTA you'll need to have a stock recovery and not be rooted.
If you don't care about the OTA and would rather flash something from one of the devs then go ahead and install CWM and root.
It's easy enough to go back to stock and all the tools and files you need are available in the dev forum.

Doubt it. There still isnt a complete guide to rooting/restoring the galaxy tab 10.1. The dev forum just has crude bits and pieces of the process layed out in a sloppy manner.

Oh hi troll.
Here is a quick guide for the OP:
CWM + Stock recovery images here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1150732
Root here: http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/tools/su_busybox_misc-sam_tab_10.1-061611.zip
HC 3.1 OTA here: http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/sys-backup/hc_31/hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip
To install a 3rd party rom flash CWM via Odin then flash the rom of your choice (all of them are pre-rooted except for the a couple of the older euro TW leaks).
To return to stock, flash the 3.1 OTA via CWM, then use Odin to flash the stock recovery.
Done.

[Q] Can I root without custom kernel

Hi I have an I9000 and I have upgraded the OS to 2.3.5 using the stock firmware from samfirmwares.com I think it is using Odin. The question I have and I have googled it and searched and read this and many other forums is can I root my I9000 without flashing CWM and a customer kernal?
On my 10.1 tab I just have a zip file I drop in root and reboot to the recovery menu and update it and it's done. I want the same for my I9000 (just for Titanium backup and SU) and I want to stay on the stock rom.
Thanks
Brian
Nop that isn't possible!
Only way to root 2.3.5 is flashing a custom kernel.

It is not a single-click process but two.
First of all use CF(the least complicated kernel) that applies to JVS to obtain root(from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108 ) and then flash the stock kernel(from perkas stash-- http://perka.zapto.org ).The result would be your phone has root and only the stock kernel.
Best wishes.
Thanks thats what I wanted I'll do that then. Why do you flash twice though? why CF then perka?
Thanks for your help

Twice because----
1)the CF would root your phone
and since you don't want anything other than the native/original kernel,
2)flash the kernel as suggested.
You could as well not go for the second flash but simply remove the minor tweaks and reboot for them to be removed.
No big deal/difference really.

The latest Gingerbread is XXLC2. Yes, you can flash an ICS Rom, but I'd wait a bit if I were you. You need to learn quite a bit before being able to cope with Beta ICS Roms.

First you need to flash an older Rom so you can successfully root it. THis is how it's done:

There are ways to improve your Note's performance without root, yes. But you won't be able to significantly improve it. Too much bloatware in stock Roms that you cannot successfully remove.
Thanks
Thanks so much for the reply, but i m on 2.36 already, do i need to flash?
I suggest you to stay on LB3 and wait for Official ICS to release. however ICS AOSP ROMs are available Here . Before you flash any AOSP ICS ROM you need to root your device and other all details are available on above linked Development page.
But my phone's model is N7000B, will that affect?
Well, I think flashing ROMs these days is pretty easy. I am no expert but I've had no problems with flashing different ROMs as such and I flash new ROM every week or two. I am currently using Imilka's AOSP, which is generally pure ICS Android. Before this I was using CheckROM HD, great battery life and performance, based on GB.
GB ROMs are a bit easier to flash and have better performance and stability than all these ICS ROMs (apart from Imilka's AOSP, I find it just too good).
Open up the Android Development section for Note, read a few threads thoroughly, decide your ROM and go for it.
Rooting instructions are very well explained by Dr Ketan in his threads. You can't go wrong about it.
To summarize:
1. Flash an older rootable GB ROM through PC Odin.
2. Install ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM). See Dr Ketan's guide.
3. (OPTIONAL) Install Titanium Backup and backup all your apps and their data. (Use batch operations)
4. Boot up into CWM, scroll to backup/restore and create a backup of your current ROM. This is a VERY VERY IMPORTANT step. Just in case anything goes wrong or you're not happy with your new ROM, you can go back to your older, original GB ROM with all your data and settings intact.
5. Choose your ROM.
6. Read it's thread thoroughly, especially the installation instructions. Do just like the creator says. If there's a video, follow it!
7. (OPTIONAL) Restore your data through TB.
8. Enjoy your new ROM.

How to"re root" a500 after receiving ics ota from Acer

I did some searching and did not find a direct answer to this. Feel free to lock this thread if this has been answered.
I flashed back to my original stock ROM from when I rooted my device. I went through the series if updates, to this morning and and updated to ics. I have lost root access. So the question is.... Is there a way to root my device on ics without downgrading. I got to have my AD free and battery saving app

I have same situation. I had rooted HC 3.2.1. Yesterday I made the update to stock ICS. I have to say that I am not happy with this new rom. It is not so smooth and fast that I expected. I am intrested to install some nice and fast custom rom. How to do it? What is need to be done to root and install the ClockworkMod??????
Worked perfectly and easily on mine. Acer_AV041_A500_1.033.00_PA_CUS1
I used the method as above, coming from the stock ota. And it worked I was able to use the battery saver and TB. I don't have a custom recovery, in order to do a back up for the time being but that is okay for now.
Edit: I see there is a bunch more threads started with this same topic so feel free to shut this down.
Hey did you unroot before installing the OTA ICS update? Also, what about recovery?
Acer_A500_041.205.01_COM_GEN2
Just to clarify, the root method for the ICS leak works on the US ICS OTA? (Acer_A500_041.205.01_COM_GEN2)
I just want to make sure, as I am being offered the OTA update from stock rooted Acer_A500_7.014.02_COM_GEN2. I want to make sure I can re-root if I do the update. Otherwise, I'll just wait for a CWM-flashable rooted version. Or has someone already posted that that I've missed?
Yes I was rooted. Then went back to my original stock ROM and stock recovery then went through all the updates. I updated this morning to the stock ics from Acer. Then used the thread above to root again. However I do not have a custom recovery at the moment but root access apps are working just fine. Which is all I need for now.(I live in southern Michigan)
thanks. A question about your custom recovery...Does Acer Recovery Installer no longer work to install CWM again? Or have you just not attempted to re-install CWM?

okay cool thanks. What did you use to unroot? For flashing back to stock recovery I will use "Acer Recovery Installer".
I tried using iconiaroot which I used to root but it still won't unroot my tablet. I even tried restarting and still nothing.
I lost root when doing the updates to clarify. And no I do not have a recovery at the moment, which I don't need because I am running ics with rooted apps that is all I need. I have no reason to flash a custom ROM. I will let the developers work with this for a bit and I will probably check it or later

Okay great thanks. Glad to know it still worked, flashing the ota update with still having root. Only thing that worries me is I flashed back to stock recovery using that program an went I booted to recovery, it was exclamation point inside a triangle. Hope that doesn't affect my update process.

I hope a root option comes out that doesn't require a ROM like gingerbreak. Maybe it's not possible for ICS or there aren't any developers interested in working on it, I don't know, but I'll wait.
It shouldn't your stock recovery is different then a custom recovery ie cwm. You will have to find another thread or something to flash a custom recovery. If your wanting to have a custom ROM. I have no need for it. So to put this into a nut shell.
Flash back to stock ROM (honeycomb)
Flash stock recovery.
Except the ota.
Use the link in first post to"re root"your device.
You will have a stock ROM from Acer that has root access. No recovery.
I Hope this makes it clear as mud:sly:

Wouldn't Rootkeeper be able to restore root after the update? It worked when I updated my Razr to the leaked ICS.

okay. sorry for all the questions, but does it matter what version of HC I'm on? You say flash back to stock, is that just if I was running a custom rom? I can't find the sdcard I have my backups on but I'm running completely stock 3.2.1 HC. Just rooted and running CWM.
No ICS Update for me, Rooted 3.2, Need Help!
I thought having my tablet simply rooted wouldnt cause a big issue, i didnt flash it, im still running 3.2 gen 2 but no update for ics has appeared, when checking for update it says im up to date, ive checked several times, tried looking into it seeing if i had to unroot somehow which ive found no program that will unroot my tablet successfully i do not want to wipe because last time i rooted it wiped and i lost alot of important data i couldnt back up. Someone please advise me or send me the Canadian/USA Update Zip or other location for the official ics. Thanks!

flash rom with stock recovery?

simple question. can i flash flexreaper rom with stock ics 4.0.3 recovery? or do i have to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery first? i have limited access to a pc and just got rooted this morning
You should be able to. Be sure to flash the honeycomb kernel parts immediately after flashing the ROM.

simple answer: no you cannot flash much of anything with the stock recovery.
If you want flexreaper then yes its best to flash the patched bootloader. Have the rom on yr sdcard ready to install once you've flashed the bootloader/custom recovery.
You can use the locked bootloader (3.01) with some of the flexreaper roms but be warned, its not the optimal solution. If you go this route you will need acer recovery installer to flash a custom recovery first.

No I never had the Hc uid I updated to ota straight out of the box. I have my current uid tho. it's not that I'm against flashing I just have limited access to a PC and to install programs and go through the whole process with someone elses PC is basically unreasonable.

[Q] I just want to be sure

Hey Guys,
I'm quite new on the forums, so forgive me if I ask questions that have already been answered a lot. Yes, I've read loads about 'how to root the Samsung Galaxy S4', but I just want your guys confirmation about my ideas.
1. I know for a long time now that you can use the CF-auto root to root your S4. But I'm wondering if it still works after such an amount of updates. Currently my phone's build number is I9505XXUGNG8
2. After my phone is rooted, I would like to have CWM as my costum recovery. I know that a really easy way is to install the ROM manager app from the playstore and from there, flash the CWM recovery. Again I was wondering if it still works that easily for the S4
3. After my phone is rooted and has CWM, I think I don't receive any OTA updates anymore right? (even when I just stay on the official TouchWizz rom)
If I don't get these updates anymore then what is a good way to get the newest Android TouchWizz versions? Can I just use the official TouchWizz roms from Sammobile that will come out in the future?
Already thanks to everybody who comments on this thread!
I hope that I can teach other people also something new.
Anyone?

1. Yes
2. I'm not sure. I always flash first non stock recovery with Odin.
3. Yes, You don't get official updates anymore. If You use latest rom from Sammobile You will loose root. Instead You can use prerooted stock roms easy to find on S4 forum. Or alternatively use any of custom TW based roms. Imo Omega rom is closest to stock.

If all you want to do it install a custom recovery and root the stock rom, you might consider just flashing Clockwork Mod Recovery in ODIN. Then using ClockworkMod to root the phone directly from recovery. It's 1 less ODIN step and it gets you to the same place.

Thanks for your reply! That is exactly what I want to do.
Just to be sure, should I do it this way?
1. Download CWM_6.0.4.7_Non-Touch_GT-I9505.tar
2. Flash the CWM_6.0.4.7_Non-Touch_GT-I9505.tar file with Odin v3.07
3. Download UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip
4. Boot into CWM recovery and flash the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip from the external SD-card (Because I would place it on the external SD-card)
Then I should be rooted right?

Yes.
And you can replace the version of CWM you mentioned with any other recovery that makes you happy, as long as it's a .tar install file for ODIN.
Why the non touch version?

Thanks A LOT!!!
I prefer the non touch version, because I'm then just a little bit more confident that I don't misclick because of touch (although that probably won't happen) and I think that the volume keys are therfore just a little bit more accurate to navigate with,
Also, if I have CWM installed and rooted my phone, can I then just install ROM manager to keep my CWM recovery up to date or do I have to flash a new one to get an updated version?
