[Q] Defy+ BL 9.10 ??

Hi all,
I own a Motorola Defy+ GB 2.3.6. Recently (sometime in April '12) got a official update from Motorola. I want to root my device, tried many tools available in this forum like Superoneclick, DoomLord, etc.. But these tools were not able to root my device. I read many posts mentioning successful rooting of Defy+ DFP-231 BL7.
When I checked my device BL version, it showed V9.10 (in the boot menu). I am wanted to know if I could be able to root my device.!
Since I am not able to root my device, I was thinking to flash the stock sbf with a rooted SBF using this method.
I want to know the risks involved in this method. If I flash a custom ROM without taking a backup of the stock ROM (I'm not able to use nandroid woithout root privileges), and something goes wrong, will I be able to restore my device to previous state (stock ROM) ?
Any answers/suggestions are appreciated..
Thanks..!

[Q] installng cwm

Hello, I'm new to rooting but also to this tablet. I am thinking of rooting with c.f. auto root but would I be able to use Rom manager from the play market and install cwm or would it be incompatible with chainfires way? Hope I can because I don't want a brick haha

CF Auto root works fine, BUT ROM Manager is not yet compatible with the N8XXX series. If CWM is already installed it can use it, but it will not install it on the Galaxy Note 10.1
Install CWM manually or just use Mobile Odin which is what I do

Thanks for the info
Could you please tell me how I flash it to my device or a tutorial on here? Sorry for such a noob question but I have to start somewhere :laugh:

To root you can use Framaroot app its on xda search for it or search for universal root.
You dont need Cwm for rooting you need it to flash custom roms there is an alternative called twrp also but i couldnt find it
Go to this link there is a user 'cybermaus" message him and ask about cwm or twrp he was going to make a rom for your phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1899245&page=20
RESPECT the dev and dont bother him too much
HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU:laugh:

Succesfully rooted my lenovo a560

Root for Gnabo Rom on 10.1 N8013 without cpu - Is Framaroot Safe?

I have lost the data USB cable for my Note 10.1 8013 and I want to get root so I can install CWM recovery and Gnabo Rom. If there's an easier or safer way please let me know asap if this is it please confirm I have the steps right.
I've been online for hours and it looks like my best option is Framaroot. I have only rooted 2 devices before and always using Odin and Chainfires auto root.
First question is if it is successful will it allows me to install the custom rom that I want? I'm trying to figure out how or where in the process to install cwm recovery and make sure I don't brick the tablet.
if yes that it will work to install gnabo rom then based on the Framaroot thread I understand that I am good to go using Framaroot 1.9.3 Sam, frodo, legolas or aragon exploits?
instructions as I understand them:
I Dl fr 1.9.3 on device
install with file explorer
Install supersu
then try the exploits until I hopefully see success?
then reboot
How do I get custom recovery? This is where I'm totally lost at
then follow instructions told Gnabo Rom? - already have zips on sd
Normally I can reach a few of the guys from the Tmo N4 to help me because I'm such a new but they're all tied up and I basically only have today free to mess with this.
