It worked ok on my P-3113. Im on stock JB

Theres no CF-Root for Tab 2 but CF-Auto-Root.

Get the right version for your tab, and it is all rainbows, and puppies. It worked when other root options didn't . Chain is a huge developer for android.

CF Auto-Root worked great on mine with both ICS and JB.

It worked fine on my device, did it today with the latest OTA update. I just rooted without flashing a new rom. I have not encountered any problems as of yet.

When I bought my wife's Tab 2 (P3110) before xmas, it was running stock ICS. I rooted with this and had no issues whatsoever. Took all of 5 mins to do it, although have rooted previous android phones, this was my first time flashing using Odin.
Works great, and from there you can easily install custom Roms using ClockworkRecoveryMod.

Anyone know if the 5110 can be rooted when already on jellybean.?
Sent from my GT-P5110 using xda premium
Yes it can definetely be rooted after jellybean update, i know because I just done it about 2 hours ago and just about to flash cm10
I used odin and chainfires autoroot then used rom manager to update recovery.

[Q] Dual Boot OTA ICS and SCV7?

I am on rooted OTA ICS with bootmenu installed. ICS is on 1st system and I already did a full backup. How do I flash SCv7 and keep original ICS rom intact? I am guessing to install on 2nd system?
Figured it out! Works really well and super easy to switch between roms. SCv7 is lightweight and fast.

Use a app(assuming you are rooted) called ROM Manager, then there will be something there about insralling cwm.
As for the apps, use Titanium Backup or Root Explorer, they have free lite versions.

Hello flashers anonymous!
Long story short......I flashed an updated kernal for the version I had. It bricked my phone. I odined it back to life. My phone automatically updated itself to 4.1.2, the rom I was running is based on 4.1.1, can someone send me a link for the .tar file I can use with odin to restore my phone back to 4.1.1? I tried to search for it, but I wasent sure which one is the most current version. Thanks everyone.

Follow the "recover from soft brick" directions. There is a 4.1.1 download link on hotfile. Worst case scenario you reflash everything through odin, and lose you root/unlocked bootloader. But that is easy to get back. Something to note is that goo.im is having problems with their servers, so you may have to google the file names on the threads....

Possible to flash 4.2.2?

Hey all, I updated my Tab 2 the other day. It was urooted, stock pretty much just out the box. I hate the new update, is it possible to root my device on this new firmware?
I rooted my Tab 2 P5110 on the latest 4.2.2 using CF Autoroot. It's running like a dream
