Galaxy Tab - ****Noob Rooting Guide****

************I have gifted by tab to my bro and bought a xoom so i dont have tab to test my rooting method and don't know if it works with latest gingerbread release*******************
Rooting Guide for Noobs
Disclaimer: The application is made by CLShortFuse and i am just creating a guide to root your Tab
Prerequisites:
1) Kies Software downloaded from HERE and installed and Tab connected even once
2) USB debugging enabled
3) SuperOnceClick downloaded from HERE
and a Galaxy tab
Process:
1) Connect your galaxy tab with debugging mode disabled and sync with Kies even once
2) Disconnect it and enable debugging mode from Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging
3) Connect the tab again to PC and click on home button so that Tab comes out of Kies connection
4) Launch SuperOneClick.exe
5) Click on root and wait for 5-10 Mins
and the Tab is rooted........
Note:
I have tried unrooting the device and rooting it again and this is not working. so this is to let you know that you will have to reflash the firmware to root the device if you unroot it again using this software and try to root until some one finds a solution
Indeed. Couldn't be easier
and what about lag fix??

did you get locked galaxy tab?
Can someone perform a check whether Tab is able to connect to Samsung KIES application after performing this routine?

Disable the USB debugging mode and reconnect it to PC, you will be good to go with Kies
Beleive me, that i tried all possible combinations. I even reinstalled the KIES.
It recognizes that Glaxy Tab P1000 is connected and asks to switch into into PC Studio connection mode.
oh ok...... i will check it when i am back home in the evening......

Has anyone tried this yet? I am also from Portugal and I've only seen the Vodafone locked edition, something that kept me away from the tab so far...

Yea, I tried this app, and it didn't work. I also tried a manual method (ADB and some hex editing) of changing the unlock code, that I found in the Captivate forums... also did not work.
So far, there's no way to unlock this thing
Thanks for the suggestion though

New member here ^_^ and also got some question [Q] :S

Hi there people in Galaxy Tab section,I'm a new member in this section.I hope you all can teach and tell me if I don't know some thing in the process of rooting,flashing,or unlocking bootloader because this is my FIRST TIME using the Samsung devices (Actually,it's my mom tab lol) but I'm advance in rooting,flashing,and unlocking bootloader of Sony devices
Well,my very first problem is I installed Kies (I download Kies through Samsung official website and it's the latest one) and every necessary thing I've installed (automatically installed by Kies),and after I reboot my laptop and finished the installation,I open my Kies application and a pop up says Kies is not responding (I use Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium)...
So,how do I fix this problem?

Did you try to re-install?
Did you reboot system?
Did you try checking/cleaning registry?
Did you check the error message/error details button etc?
Why on earth are you using Vista? Install Windows 7.
Did you contact Samsung or Microsoft about their software?
PS. This is XDA not Samsung/Microsoft support

Well,thanks for still replying to my thread :#)
It looks like I'll never ever install Kies due to problem with Vista (I think),but I wanna ask another question : Why would my mom GT-P1000 won't connect to my laptop?I installed the USB driver (searched,googled,everything) and still it won't connect...when I plug in the USB,the tab promp want to mount sd card or not,but on laptop,there is nothing (yep,totally zero reaction)..

[Q] Wierd USB Sync/Charge Issue

Hi i have a GT-i9500 that recently has started acting really weird, the symptoms are.
Computer does not detect the phone, not even as an unrecognized device. It doesn't matter if its on, recovery or download mode.
After it goes to low Battery mode it won't charge with any 2.0 or 2.1 Amp Charger (tried car, iPad and Samsung original). It just charges with 0.5 amp charger (Huawei G510) or connected to a USB 2.0 port.
I have seen issues where the phone display a warning in the screen when charging with the power off, this is not the case, there are no warnings, the device works perfectly normal if you leave out the usb charging and syncing issue, battery lasts as it always has, no overheating, etc.
Changing charger or cord gives the exact same result
The issue was noticed after updating to 4.3 I9500UBUEMJ8
Developer options are enabled, so is USB Debugging
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Check the huawei charger and it is not charging either, it just works with the laptop USB, any ideas?

Yes but that doesn't solve the problem of the phone not being detected by the PC so i can't use odin or KIES so firmware changing is hardly an option unless i use something like mobile odin

Well. I think u are wrong but anyway the firmware u are using uses Kies 3 (android 4.3). Try to install Kies 3 and the drivers again. How u updated ur phone to MJ8 if u couldnt use Kies?

I used Odin, I had no problem until then but 2 weeks ago it started acting up. I read around and found that some people have been having charging issues after 4.3 tought it doesn't look like a widespread issue.

I dont think its gonna work that way.?!? ,But i might be wrong ?!? But the best thing you can do is either ask your friend's/family or go in a computer shop.. if they can borrow you a laptop/pc then root it while you can .Have a nice day.
