Rooting Assistance Please! - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone,
I just recently switched over from a Apple iPad to a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 and I have no idea on how to start the rooting process.
There does not seem to be any clear step by step instructions on how to root your device for novice users.
I have a P3113 with 4.2.2 loaded on it and I would like to root it to use the sixaxis application to sync my PS3 Controller.
Can someone provide me with a step by step instructions with all the latest files please.
Thank you.

Have you looked on YouTube at all?

[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:

[Q] Installing CWM on n8000

I've been searching for methods to install CWM on my note 10.1, I've just found Odin method and manual method, and my doubt is: Can I install CWM directly from Rom Manager? Do I need to ROOT first? All other methods are too hard or too risky to a noob like me!
I want to install Cyanogenmod and I need CWM.
Someone could help me?
Nobody is going to help me? :crying:
No, You need to install CWM first then the device can be rooted. until now the safest way to install first CWM on the device is via Odin. then you can do everything include install new updated CWM via CWM itself. You only need is samsung drivers and Recommended version Odin to your device. At first I'm a little scare to install CWM via Odin but Now It's Fun. You Should Try with Caution of course. LEARN with Caution for the first timer.
God Bless
I'm N8000 user. My ROM was XXCMG2 Deodexed By Darkman installed via CWM 6.0.3.6
Just follow zedomax's guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831152
It looks complicated, but it really isn't. Watch is video and follow him step by step, and you'll be rooted in no time.

[Q] Root & Flash Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830

Hi, I managed to successfully root my fone last week but when I tried to install ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.3.7 from the SD Card I am now getting the blue screen with the phone eventually booting up ok. Does anyone have a simple step by step guide as to the steps I need to do to revert this install and start again with an older version of CWM? I'm a newbie to the rooting/flashing of devices but fairly competent following guides and installing files etc. so any help would be greatly appreciated.

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.

[Q] Root & install lollipop on stock P5110

Hello,
I'm new to this site but am used to installing custom ROMS. However, I have recently obtained the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5110 and would like to install a Lollipop ROM.
I know that I have to root it 1st & then install a custom ROM but I am having major issues where once I have rooted the device I can not load a Lollipop ROM as it just gets stuck.
PLEASE can someone help me. Am I using a recovery image that's not compatible with the rom? Step by step instructions with download links would be greatly appreciated.

You will want to use either Odin or Heimdall to flash the latest TWRP recovery from @Android-Andi's recovery thread. Make sure before flashing you make a full backup and wipe (at the very least) system, data, cache, dalvik cache, android secure (if this is an option).
Have a great day!
