I have Samsung Galaxy Tab II 7.0 (GT-P3100)
It came with ICS 4.0.3 upgradable to 4.1.1
While playing around with it, I rooted it, installed a Custom Recovery (CWM) and a Custom ROM (CyanogenMod 10.1), Android version 4.2.1.
Now everything is just fine except a few bugs that are normal in Nightly Builds.
I want to re-install my Stock ROM because I want to sell it and the buyer wants official stock ROM.
One of my friends has the same handset (GT-P3100) with same baseband version (P3100DDLG1)
The only thing that he did was that he updated his one to official JB update OTA (4.1.1)
He also rooted his phone.
Now, I want you people to help me, how can I copy his Tab's ROM and install that on mine.
I want instructions to be easy and porting procedure simple.
Like the way I install updates for CM 10.1
Thanks.

Wrong forum, my friend: you have the Galaxy Tab II (GT-P3100), while this is for the Galaxy Tab 7.7 (GT-P6800/6810/I815).
But the answer would be the same.. You don't want to port a ROM (that would be trying to make a Galaxy Note 10.1 ROM run on the Galaxy Tab II 10.1, for example: make a ROM run on a device where it wasn't meant to run): you want to "transfer" a ROM between two different devices. And that is quite easy. Your friend makes a CWM backup. You get that backup on your tablet, and restore that backup. Then you'll have the exact same kernel, system and data as he does. Then, you factory reset to erase the data, and you'll have the ROM as if you'd just installed it fresh. You'll probably still be rooted, though.
A more straightforward way would be to simply download the ROM you want from SamMobile and install it through Odin.

Thanks for the Answer Brother...
Actually I'm new to XDA forums,that is why I'm a little confused between "forums", "porting", "posts", "topics", "transfer"...
Anyways I know how to make the Backup of ROM in CWM although I don't have any idea where are the files stored on the tablet.
I mean when my friend creates a backup via CWM, where will be the "Backup ROM" stored (path)
if you can help...
Thanks in advance.

Its the right forum.
Backups are stored in the clockworkmod directory
clockworkmod/backup
learnt a lot

Hi,
I want to know if there is any way to restore my tab to stock firmware? I can't find any links for GT-5113 ROM.
The reason to store the stock ROM is that I have installed CM9 on my tab and now I am unable to install Infected / Cleanrom. It hangs on Samsung boot screen after installing these roms via CWM.
Thanks.

As you realized AFTER the fact, creating a thread in development means you have something to offer to others,
not asking questions. FYI: I stopped using CM9 ROMs a long time ago because they frequently contain MANY
hidden bugs, only work properly when loaded with certain kernels, certain CWMs ... bottom line is you're
just one of the latest victims. Try a factory reset. Then ODIN the CWM in my Root thread. Then install
the ORIGINAL v1.0 CleanRom. It's the best of current custom ROMs and NO, we still don't have a stock GT-P5113.

Thanks, will try both the suggestions one by one.
The only problem with ODIN at the moment is that you can't reset the flash counter, I already have it at 3
Solved
Hi Glenn,
I was able to install CleanRom, by installing the CWM posted in your thread.
Thanks.

When you flashed the 5110 rom, did you have a problem with the language (Mine is currently in a foreign language)?
if so, when you flashed the Clean Rom did your tablet revert to the proper language?
Thanks
You can restore to stock using my guide. (link in signature) It should now be in English.
Ok. Here is it. I have seen a stable build of Galaxy S2 GT-I9100G, REMEMBER IS (G)!!!! Don't reply me with the answer of S2 without the G, I'm asking the[G] Version. So the stable build was here http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=i9100g&type=stable for the [Direct Download: cm-9.1.0-i9100g.zip ] So i wondering if it really stable and safe. So, here the Question.
1ST:Is it safe to flash? Will it brick? Worth it? And what Android version IS IT?
2ND:Is this CWM Good, Working, and Safe to flash?So, i'm giving 2 link, (Not downloaded from here)=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631934 and i found these word=This is a kernel including ClockworkMod Recovery for use on Samsung roms.
Don't use this kernel on aosp based roms like CyanogenMod!!!) And this link is where i'm downloaded the CWM and flashed it, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683800 because of GT-I9100G_LP7_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.5.0.4 it make me think it is the same from the first link i gave that have LP7 hacked, and i wonder it will it be also not support cynogenmod.
3RD: If the CWM at STEP 2 is not supported, What CWM that is work for SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 GT-I9100G and Flash able to cynogenmod with not PROBLEM!
4ST: Anyone have this on their Galaxy S2 GT-I9100G? Is everything WORKING FINE? Is the Performance and Battery Good?
5ST: Do i need to factory reset the phone before and after? And can anyone tell me the step if you can?
My phone is rooted and my battery is so bad and i wonder is this rom good for battery and performance. I'm afraid of bricking my phone because of the CWM. I installed cwm on galaxy 5 and it died. So This is important information to me. and PLEASE ANSWER ALL MY QUESTION CAREFULLY!
Dear Moderator or OP, Please Delet the same post i posted at general in Galaxy S2 Gt-i9100 forum.
Hey guys, sorry but I cannot seem to find any information on this.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, i9100, and I want to root it.
The problem I am having is that I am a [noob] yes I admitted it, but I cannot seem to find the ROM for my device.
I attached a screenshot of my device's about section.
Now I know that the steps are to use ODIN, and then download a CF root, but I can't seem to find my ROM. I am from an island called Trinidad & Tobago (Caribbean) and I have updated my device to ICS.
Can anyone please explain to me, what the hell do I have to do to root this device? I want to install a custom rom, if anyone can vouch for a nice smooth rom that looks great!
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
ZetaJynx!
This method needs to have an external card to your sii. Put the files both in external and internal card too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719

Now if u want to install a custom rom install first a custom kernel for samsung ics 4.0.3 (not aokp aosp) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702166 and after install rom. U can do this using the temporary cwm u downloaded before. Is the safest way this because custom kernels had injected cwm and not using temporary cwm. Read well the instructions of the developer before installing , also check before installing a custom rom if it has a safe kernel because excists a brick bug at samsung roms 4.0.4 and +.
So I am a total newbie to android, its roms and rootings, recoverys etc.
I had bought a Tab 2 GT P3110 with Android 4.1.2 and build version DDCMA4.
I had installed some apps and games but i now i require whatsapp on my device. There is a method to install whatsapp but it requires root.
Also, I dont like Phablet UI and I need Tablet UI. I heard that this can be achieved on the stock rooted rom with Xposed.
So, I need to root my device. I saw several forums but they give the method to root on 4.1.1 but I have 4.1.2.
Anyone who has the solution may reply to this post. I need a working method but not just a reference link to some other thread about rooting.
And last, what is CWM recovery and do i need that for rooting galaxy tab 2 3110.

It is the same method for both.
And no you do not need cwm to root. It is for installing ROMs and mods.
I'm leaving WiFi, or I'd walk yout hrough. Either way, i would be pointing you to the developer forum for the cf auto root thread.

I also had never rooted anything. I tried CF Auto Root and is an excellent method, rooted mine and my sister's in about 30 seconds. Really really easy.
Yeah.. It seems I never saw the FAQ for 3110. I tried the CF Root method and it was very simple.
I used the cwm method and would highly recommend it, so easy to use and simple to install roms afterwards if you want to
You should consider flashing a custom rom. My p3113 was lagging really bad because tw was so heavy and took up most of my ram. Now the tablet is running extremely smooth.

edit: this roms are based on android jellybean 4.1,4.2 depend of version, tab will works smoother but not all options are working, u can read about this in threads.
Thank you. This is my second tablet. I had one (lepan) a year ago, but had to get raid of it. My phones were( and is) HTC and I am familiar with android kitchen. I am not sure if the kitchen support this device. I read that scary stories about the ICS brick and I did run the app to test my tab. It does have that brick bug. I do not think that I will "mess" with this tab. It is working good so far. Thanks.
