Can I root Gtab with new Touchwiz? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

Can I root Gtab with new Touchwiz?

What method in particular are you concerned will no longer work? I'm not aware of any.

I'm actually curious about this as well. Mostly, what I would like to know, is if it is still possible to flash CWR via Odin, as listed in this thread, and apply the root exploit zip that the developers created.

Yep, I flashed CWR using that method immediately after accepting the OTA. I haven't reflashed that root exploit but I've flashed other zips and it works. Unless those binaries are no longer working in this version (which I'm sure is not the case), it'll work fine.

Cool sounds good. I'll probably give root a try later tomorrow, and let you know how it goes.
Thanks!

Roots just fine
I rooted mine after the update and it worked like a charm.

Would u Plza send me a detailed root guide, my tab is still as it is since I bought it from amazon, it will b great if u can send
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App me a link thanks

Yeah, once you have Clockwork installed, you can just flash the root zip which adds the required files to your tab's filesystem.

Rooting for 2.3.3

TBH is in the process of right now releasing a leaked Moto build of Gingerbread 2.3.3. As of right now, they have been unable to root it, as all known root methods appear to no longer work. Anyone want to tackle it?
obviously not gonna be easy....if TBH can't do it.. I doubt anyone can
Don't think anything is impossible. They just got the release yesterday. It sometimes takes a collaboration of several devs to get root.
If my download ever finishes I gonna try like hello and throw everything I have at it. Lol.

i have an idea about getting root but im not sure if it will work or not but pretty much instead of rebooting after installing 2.3.3 you install the su.zip file found somewhere on xda and you should have root but im not 100% sure

That will soft-brick the phone and you'll have to SBF from RSDLite. You can't install any other zips directly after installing a ROM or it won't pass the signature verification on reboot.

well the nexus s/one use a method which requires the bootloader to be unlocked in order to obtain root so technically speaking they are the same in this case
so far though i have been reading about a gingerbreak exploit from the same guy who released rageinthecage exploit
maybe if we contacted him he might release gingerbreak so we can have root access
that sucks

Search the market for "Superuser" and there is an app that has comments stating it worked for GB on N1.
I downloaded it and ran it and it seemed to have done the first part of what it needed to do fine... but now the next step is flash this .zip update that is on the memory card through recovery...... I don't want to be the genea pig as I need my phone atm...

looks promising, says in his quote he didnt want to release till more 2.3 devices were out ( so they couldnt fix his exploit ) but hopefully he will release it soon ish

[ruu + update.zip][MR1 aka First OTA] May 12th OTA - 1.13.605.7

(DO NOT FLASH THE OTA or the SIGNED RUU ON A ROOTED (even if it is just ENG s-off) DEVICE)
This is the same as the OTA released on May 12th 2011 and is the MR1. Confirmed by me this morning. This file will wipe /data.
Not responsible for damage or losses caused by this firmware. Use at your own risk. Flash it was an RUU (like in the root guides), not using recovery. This will wipe your data.
This should not be flashed to a rooted device, as it will likely brick. Fair warning.

Ok thanks for the heads up. I just want to be clear on my options. I haven't rooted yet because i haven't really found a reason to. But if i absolutely have to in order to get this update i will, because i truthfully don't want to have to wait on VZW, because i have a feeling we'll still be waiting for a while. I'm not totally new to the rooting world, i've done it before on my G2.
So for this particular file, i need root correct?
Also if i try to install this is it gonna wipe all the data from my phone? Because honestly i rather if/when it was possible just upgrade the phone instead of having to start from scratch all over again.
non rooted wipe?
Will non rooted users' devices wipe after renaming and installing the .zip?

Nope. Just drag it to your SD and rename it to what is said above. Boot into the bootloader mode, hit the power button and it should do it automatically.

You have two options for a non-rooted phone:
Either download this file, rename it to PG05IMG.zip and copy to the root of your sdcard, use ADB to reboot to the bootloader and flash it. It's signed and untouched so you'll be upgraded to the latest version without having to root. However this will wipe your data.
Second option is to root, flash the radio only RUU, and use clockworkmod recovery to flash the stock, deodexed version of this rom, which will not wipe data. Details are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1042004

No, you don't need to be rooted for this specific RUU file.
Use Astro to back up all your apps then drop this file to the SDcard, reboot to Hboot and let it do the magic.
Then go to market download Astro and install all the apps you backed up.

Ideas for rerooting 6.2.1 update

Okay so the Kindles 6.2.1 update brought about gingerbread 2.3.6 from my understanding which patches the zergrush exploit. Here are some of my brainstorming ideas on ways that we can obtain root again.
1.) Some sort of flashing software to downgrade such as Odin/Heimdall (these work on samsung things so im not sure as to the viability of using these utilities on kindle.
2.) Perhaps there is a way we can use the OTA update method that amazon uses to issue a fake OTA update with a rooted image. This method to me sounds good but would probably require alot of work: like discovering how the amazon OTA updates are issued and ways that we can abuse and attack that process.
does anyone else have any ideas that might be considered?
As a first, is there anyone, who has successfully been able to use ADB/fastboot on firmware 6.2.1? I've tried the usual driver mods - no luck. Same thing on Ubuntu, which is weird - a Linux machine should have seen the KF without issues.
I can adb, just can't zerg. I looked for exploits for a half hour and came up blank.
You need to be root to idme. I'm at a roadblock :/

If you have a fastboot cable you can use that to modify the recovery. Then you have all the access you need to root, theme, whatever.

Thing is.. not everyone has a factory cable.. I plan to buy the parts to make one when I get a chance.. but I'm sure a method will come about.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
now I dont know much about how to find exploits and stuff but I did download the stock update file and if you change it from .bin to .zip the structure looks like any other update zip just wil some extra stuff in it like the recovery image and such. could we just take the boot.img system directory and the other main system files from the rooted 6.2.1 and replace them in the stock update file and try to force it to re-update? once again just a thought after looking at the file.
It will fail the signature test in recovery if you tamper with the file. A factory cable is a useless method for rooting because nobody has one. We are looking for a method that doesn't require a cable

Lost Root after New ROM install

Ok, so... I'm not new to rooting, but i AM new to rooting a nexus 7.
I had it all rooted and installed Baked's new ROM, and it gave me superuser permission when I booted into the OS the first time.. but then I restarted the nexus and bam. root was gone, superuser no longer worked... had to reload my backup of my original rom, root is back again.
I'm running CWM touch as recovery (latest update) had OTA voodoo rootkeeper (which won't help though because its a fresh install right?)
Can anyone tell me what is going on? I'm a bit lost... usually when you root. You are rooted. period. This is a new game to me.

update youre superuser or supersu app. i suggest you get the supersu app from the market since superuser is a bit buggy on jelly bean. open the supersu app, itll ask to update the binaries, do it. no need wasting your time "rerooting".
No worries, glad I could help Unfortunately, I've not ventured into the different ROM's yet. Should really....... So I can't recommend any. Sorry Though I do like the look of the ones that have the real tablet UI, might try one of them in a few days.....

with any nexus device, there really isnt a "rooting". from scratch all you need to do is fastboot oem unlock(bootloader), fastboot flash a custom recovery, and either flash the su binaries or a custom rom in your recovery. no root toolkits needed. thats whats awesome about any nexus.
