[Q] Help identifying root.. - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I rooted my samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 nearly 2 years ago and I want to unroot it now but I'm unsure which procedure/program I used to do it in the first place. Is there somewhere in the CWM recovery or Superuser that I can find this out?
I have found a couple of different unroot procedures but I don't want to unroot with the wrong one and be left with a paper weight....
Cheers,
smoose

No no, you got me wrong. I am already rooted, the thing is can i Flash ClockworkMod Recovery and Custom ROMs like CM7.2, Dardroid 0 .3 in V10e Firmwares? Im confused because they require V10c and I got V10e.

Hey Karan:
Have you rooted P698 with Cusom ROM? Which one did you use? I have been thinking to get this phone but have been holding back because I don't see any community support/custom rom for it. Any suggestion?
Pls do no flash cwm or rom 7.2 by jst on ur p698 bcause it will brick it bt can still b rcovered though!

I cannot promise you it will work but you can flash p690 official kdz on your p698 and you can enjoy p690 mods.
Hope it helps.

I totally agree with you. DON'T DO CWM on P698. I brick it and replace one from shop.

If you are on android 2.1 download an apk (app) from google called z4root, open it on your phone and click on root.
If you are using android 2.2 download a program on your computer called superoneclick root, turn USB debugging on (on your phone), connect your USB and click on root.

Hey bro.. I saw this but it didn't say anything about the build version.... I have the MF3 the latest and greatest. Meaning... from what I read, there is nothing out there at this present time. I don't want to try the MDL is it might just mess it up some more. So until it is confirmed that a certain flash will work for MF3... then I'll just wait. I gonna have to go caveman (no phone) for a couple of weeks/months... but its all good. Maybe it will humble me to not rely on portable technology... LOL!
