How to root Galaxy Tab P1000 GingerBread 2.3.3

I`m sorry if I open another thread of how to root galaxy tab , but I`m trying to ask about another way to root galaxy tab running gingerbread 2.3.3 besides using odin to flash chainfire kernel , thus using custom root method. Is there another way ? Another simple way , like a simple apk to run like gingerbreak (that does not work) or superoneclick (that still does not work) ... u get the point. Waiting for replay`s and please if u want to give a replay , don`t just post if u want to rant or complain about another thread about root. I want to ask if there is a possible way to root ur tab with a simple apk and if not if u can remove root after u used odin with chainfire. Thank you and have a nice day .

Fail ... I said for 2.3.3 GingerBread not Froyo

I tried again , it freezes at step 6 so does it mean that it doesn`t work ? HELL YEAH!

Srsly no one can give me an answer ? Or an ideea or smth ?

The chainfire kernel is the only root method for all stock gingerbread roms. Overcome preroots their rom.

Yes it's difficult to find this answer here.
You need this, google it
Google_Android_Tablet_Gingerbred_2.3.3_Rooting_files.rar
Use odin 1.7, should be included
Don't do repartition, don't add pit files, even if they are included.
You win not loose data by doing this. Should not.
There is NO space in that filename. It shows wrongly to me here

Again , sorry to be a nag , but I already said it in the 1st post , I asked if there is another way to root gtab 2.3.3 without using odin or if u use odin if there is a way to unroot. Please take that into consideration when u post please ... Thank you , and again ... sorry to be a nag.

Sorry for wasting your time by writing my insufficient answer.
The mistake is mine of course. I should have took more time to read and to properly understand your needs and probably do the google search to find the direct link.
Maybe you shouldn't stop just by being upset and blaming us for answering you incorrectly.
Complain to andministrators, they should do something about it.
Anyway, for others reading this threat, there is an answer to this question.
You will find it out right after you do what i wrote in previous post.
That is put that string in google.
Will try to remember not to answer your posts anymore. And once again, sorry for wasting your time.

Really no point in doing that ... I asked a simple question and expected a simple and concise answer . Is that too much ? I didn`t said u wasted my time but if u ask smth and u answer with smth else what`s the point ? Did u said smth about unroot option ? Because I asked about this because there are some that might need to go with gtab to waranty and when they see root ? There is a point into the way I asked really , if u understood smth else I`m really sorry , but ur sarcasm sucks . Btw no everything u need is in need of a simple google search to find the direct link. That`s why I post here , where the questions are answered , BY PEOPLE THAT KNOW THEIR STUFF. Sry for the caps , abbrevations , and the attitude . Thank you and have a nice day/night to all.

Talk about self entitlement....I doubt you will get anywhere with this kind of attitude

I dont normally say this, but my god, you're a ****.
There is currently NO way to do what you're asking. There is your clear answer.
Now please go away.

Right ... right ... Can you please enlighten as to why am I a "****" ? Because I clearly state my question and expect a decent and adequate answer ? Is that why I`m a **** ? Then clearly all the people in the world are "dicks"! Excuse me for using the word "****" because I`m paraphrasing mister copper7op because he clearly thinks he lives in a perfect world. Mister copper7op you sir are the "****" here because you came to my post and insulted me . I did not insulted no one , I just stated the facts. If you don`t like too bad for you really . As a side not or P.S. thank you for the answer about no actual solution to my question in the post .

it is same to me T.T....i cant root my gtab 2.3.3 sad..

[Q] How does root apps or method works?

hey there.. i just want to learn @ask on how do root apps work like what they do to gain root nd how methods do to i really like to now just like to help ppl or learn more for my own use plz i really want to know.. WOW im so curious!! hehe thanks

Just my guess, I think they get root by requesting it, then the dialog appears and you allow it. Its then saved that that app can have root permissions. Don't know the technicals of how it request it but download some tools, and take an app apart and explore it.

Rooting is equivalent to to #su access in the Linux world. Which gives you complete control of your device by accessing the /system, /bin, bootloader and recovery images. By doing this you can greatly increase the options for our devices.
It's done by exploiting a security flaw in the firmware.
Some tools that require root access would be Absolute Tools, Screen Cast, Titanium Backup. If you are using a game or a productivity app that is requiring root access delete it straightaway.
And this is a forum, you don't have to use SMS short hand.

Ohh .. wow that's hard.. nd I can do this by my self?

If you're asking it - no, you can't.

Can i ask u why???.. because u look like u now ??

Because:
If you want to make Android apps, root or not - you need to learn Android development, install SDK, install Eclipse, read a lot of literature, make your first "Hello world" project, complete some more tutorials, think of a simple app that you want to make, and Google a lot while making it. And of course, you need to know some programming before, on whatever object-oriented language - since Java is quite simple to understand if you know C++ or alike. Then you need to decide, what do you want to make a root app for, and Google your way to understand, how should your app ask for root privileges on execution. Then you should learn how to sign your app.
If you just want to know how to modify apps, how is Android built, how do you make changes to files etc - you'll still need to understand all the above, but you'll also need to read some decompiling guides for using smali/baksmali, learn how to use apktool and various Java decompilation code viewers, perform some simple modifications to practice, and then do some more complicated work that you set your eyes on.
And to look for exploits that allow rooting, you need to be a VERY experienced programmer, easily navigate tenths of thousands of lines of C code, know your way inside drivers, etc.
And if you need me to write you all that - it means you're nowhere near starting it all, means you can't "do it yourself" any time soon, or at all.

Oh wow... thanks man.. nd sorry if i got u mad.. haha.. nd i just wanted to now if i could make a root ap.. lol.. im just a 15 noob kid.. nd thanks u really now

Great post to use when rooting for the first time

Thank's guys

This is the only tool you need to root and gain an unlocked bootloader.

Download the advanced ace hack kit and read its manual. Don't use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader that will only give you problems later.

[MINI GUIDE] Easiest Soft Brick Escape - For the Desperate User

Over the internet there are various guides teaching the lesson 'how to get out of a soft brick.' Some guides can be hard to follow and very hoarse leaving a noob feeling like he/she has destroyed their device. Fear Not.This is a comprehensive guide for less experienced users who happen to find themselves in a soft brick.
Dictionary - Soft brick - the phone can still boot, and be flashed easily but in its current state is unusable.
- Hard brick - the phone cannot boot and requires additional devices to do so (USB Jig, Riffbox).
This is the quickest escape route on the interweb and you will be done in no time. Here we go:
First Download Flashtool. Here (You may download any version from the previous versions tab.)
Install Flashtool.
Find the stock firmware for your device. For the x8
E15i android 2.1.1 http://www.multiupload.com/VKNI6Q6ET5 (2.1.1.C.0.0 latest firmware)
Dictionary - stock firmware - latest version of software released by the manufacturer
After downloading the firmware. Extract the file. You will be left with a firmware file with .ftf as the ending.
Go into 'my computer' then 'flashtool' folder then 'firmware'. Then copy the .ftf file into that folder.
Close the folder.
Now to make sure that your phone is recognized by flashtool, go into computer then flashtool then drivers.
Now Install the driver for the x8.
Connect your x8 to your computer.
open the Flashtool program.
Click the bolt icon in the top left.
Select the name of the firmware you downloaded (2.1.1.C.0.0) in the left panel. it will highlight blue.
Click ok (bottom right).
A box will appear telling you to put your device into flash mode. Follow the instructions it gives.
Once this is done the box will dissapear and firmware will flash.
Finally device will reboot and phone will be back to normal.
Congratulations you have unbricked your device.
I hope you found this useful. Please thank me using the button if you appreciate my efforts. #
This is my first guide. Tell me what you think. Anything I could improve.

Very good guide, cause didn't know yet about this..very thanks..:thumbup:
Sent from my XPERIA X8 using xda premium

nice and quick guide, i guess that what a paniced newbie search for!
suggestion:i think you should add about the installation of drivers,as many users come here telling that their phones is not recognized by flashtool
also change the 4-noobs at the title, is kidda disturbing...put "for" instaid of 4

There is about 100 threads about that. Just color of text and size is diferent!

guuuuuuuyyyyyyyyyyysssssssssss,dont attack him because he want to help,if you dont like it,ignore it!

I know what you are talking about,but as long as there are so many who make a new thread for asking help for a brick,I prefer having similar threads with the same information that will help people rather than having stupid threads that are useless after all.....

Thankyou for everyone's support. I have changed the '4' to 'for' in the title as suggested by stamatis16.
also
As someone who studied psychology, I know that people learn in very different ways. A guide from someone else may not help a certain person. Different fonts evoke different responses and speeds of learning. Different colours do similar things too. So in response to the 'there are millions of guides' argument, I say . Everyone learns differently and this may help someone desperate more effectively than any other. I know that when I needed this help none of the guides were as simple as the one I have composed.
In addition to this, please remember, I am spending my personal time to aid others. So negative flaming saying that my posts are 'not really helping' is always a let-down.
Thankyou once again for the support.
Special thanks lyhengboy stamatis16 for comments.

Guys, think of it this way. Its better for someone to make a new thread which will prevent 2000 threads asking the same topic.

Hmm OP can we merge this topic with the existing one with Lucas? You can always PM him for ideas
For now I agree that it is somehow odd to create extra thread for the same purpose for noob knowing that there is already an existing one. Very nice purpose but we need to be organized as well hugs.

I can understand that but I have clearly highlighted in my post before this one why I made a new thread. Please read it if you have not.
Also I would like to have my own 'branding' if you like, of guides and reviews. I try to spice each one up differently to combat that argument.
Thankyou very much for being kind when posting. :laugh: Sorry if I come across as rude, I do not mean to be this way.
Q:Hmm OP can we merge this topic with the existing one with Lucas? we need to be organized as well
A: I would be very sad if you were to delete or move or zap this thread for the reasons you mention above. I have spent great periods of time composing and tailor making this for certain users. As a RC I hope you can understand my reasoning.
Thankyou once again.
EDIT: I have changed the title to make it seem 'different'. I also want to mention my 'dictionary' feature. I think this is different and may help my argument.

I fully understand you. Thy will be done

Can someone with a soft bricked X8 let me know if its possible to boot into safe mode?
Hold menu when booting.

Thankyou. I was a bit scared when you said you wanted to remove this post and 'merge it with another.' Great to know you are so supportive.

Yes, please do not merge this. I have benefited allot from this post. Merging it I think will take out the time put into to this. Plus, other people may not see this. I am happy the op decided not to merge.

Na it was just a suggestion to make the forum more organize.

Thanks, man
I don't have a soft or a hard brick. But I acknoledge you made a great guide and thank you anyway.
It was also useful because I am still considering if I should root my Galaxy Ace Duos GT-S6802 or not. And this made me realize that even if it bricks, it can be reverted. Do you have any idea if a hard brick is reversible? Also, in worst case scenario, can I simply download the software from samsung site and install it? Thanks. And sorry if I broke any rules here, I'm still a noob (still scared by the introdutory video haha)

Buddy,
Apparantly no such app exists,
Just be smart and know what you are doing to your device,
If u want to keep your system safe from data corruption and improper manipulation just dont root it,
Also keep your system backed up constantly using titanium backup or other backup app
If you dont know what rooting truly does please google it,
that is the best answer you can get,
you can pay a expert and im sure they'll just tell you the exact same thing
