Hello guys, first of all, happy new year
Im searching for a great guide to unroot my Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 P7510, but i can´t find a guide with a clear way to solve this or i find several guides but every guide is different, so i´m very confused what to do now.
I purchased my Galaxy Tab 10.1 P 7510 in the Netherlands, but i live in Germany and now i have to get it in the original State like i have purchased it. Im not sure which stock official rom i have to download, on samfirmware.com there are two Roms, one is dated with june and the other one with july: http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p7510.htm
So which one do i need? What does csc mean ? I also saw this on the xda forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167250 But he says he does not recommend it : "Pre-release TOUCHWIZ rom, not recommended!"
I rooted the tab with this method from galaxytabhacks.com : http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-root-galaxy-tab-10-1-the-easy-way/
But this method seems not to work i think : http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-unroot-your-galaxy-tab-10-1/ Many people say that they are not getting official updates andymore or cant update to touchwizz, but touchwizz was always on my tab.
Im really afraid of bricking my tablet so i need your guys help.
What i understood is that i have to install a stock rom first of all with odin or clock word mod recovery. For me personally CWM is easier, but i have no clue which Rom to install, because the roms on samfirmware.com are .rar !
And then i have to flash to original recovery with odin? How to do that?
Also many people say that they have still the superuser app after unrooting. Whats with that?
i hope you guys can help me. thanks already for reading....
Hey I unrooted as I had to send my tablet in for repairs. I flashed my nandroid backup and then used my root access to delete super user and then unrooted and used stock android recovery to reset user data etc.
Check out this link for how to unroot.
Having a nandroid aka cwm recovery backup makes it much easier.

I used this link that you said didn't work successfully. What seems to be the problem for you?
Sent from either my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi or Motorola Atrix 4G
Thanks. But as i said on that link is only the ota rom without touwhizz and also i cant find my backuo i was sure i made one but i cant find it.
Ah this is so sick

I loaded the P7510 root files on it (BAD IDEA for anyone reading).
I tried to "re-stock" it with the P7500 stuff and it wouldn't work. (when I get home I will try to find the right .pit file and try it again)
I tried to push a new rom with ADB and flash it and so far no joy.
If anyone has any ideas I am open to them.
if anyone has the t-mobile 10.1 tab.... CWM recovery seems to work. I need a full system backup to restore my tab. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

What version of the CWM do you have? I found that 4.x and 5.x versions create different file types for the nandroid backup and they are not compatible.
I can create a backup for you tomorrow for any of the CWM, just tell me which one you need.
[EDIT]
I have a unbranded 10.1 3G and the backup would be from a modded Overcome ROM, but at least you would get the tab back to work.
[/EDIT]
I think it needs to be the T-Mobile ROM. I can flash stock roms for the P7500 if they are the same. Anyone else try any roms on the t-mobile tab?

Didn't the T-Mobile just release? Your the first post I have seen for it. What the model? P7500 or something else?
Also, FYI or not, this does not belong in the Dev section. Please read the rules for posting.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=1053
It was meant as a combined warning and cry for help I figured since this is where everyone comes for info on root... the warning should be here too. The model number is SGH-T859
you may need some one else to do a t-mobile rom dump, and reflash either through cwm or odin. Did you check the samsung firmware site for a recovery image? As a last resort, you could exchange it for a new one. And of course make a good backup in the future to go off of.
BTW, that is odd that your model number is so different from the normal gt-7xxx. Just to be sure, this is a galaxytab 10.1 or 8.9, right?
Yeah it is a 10.1 .... t-mobile always has a new number but it does surprise me that the p7500 stuff isn't working... I will try again tonight. If anyone has the T-Mobile 10.1 tab please send me a system backup
Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums and Read THIS
Moving to General
Not surprised the model number is different considering the LTE from Verzion is different as well.
ok so I got it to work with the 002001-Overcome_CWM_Recovery_v5.1.2.3.tar here
I am making a backup. I couldn't get the "re-stocking" part to work. It looks like we need a .pit file. But if you want the CWM recovery that should work.
So far my wifi hasn't come back :'(
I am going to try a few more things and report back
Wish I'd seen you're posts sooner. I pretty much followed you right off the same cliff. I was hoping that an easy solution was at hand. I'm much more a noob at this stuff, and am having trouble communicating with the tablet at all, much less doing anything to problem solve it. I do have CWM v4.0.1.4 working and would be happy just getting the stock kernal back on it. Guess I have a lot of reading and learning to do this week.
If anyone can help, I'd (we) would really appreciate it. I have a long hospital stay coming up on the 14th and this tablet was going to make it a bit more bearable. Is there a way to remove CWM so I could do a return to T-Mobile? Just a thought...
Thanks for any input.
Hmmm this is for the new 10.1 4G model? I have a stock one I had been waiting to root til I could find out if existing methods worked or not
can u pls send me your stock boot.img?
would like to add support for it.
thx.

Yeah, don't root it yet. The current root methods don't support it. Man, if you could provide pershoot with an image and/or me with a nandroid backup that would be fantastic. I don't mind waiting for the excellent developers here on XDA to do their stuff (it's always worth it), but I've got about a week to get mine up and running again.
Thanks for whatever you can do.
I got mine to root just fine, using the process in the stickie. I used odin and then cwm to install root. Stayed on stock rom and used Ti backup to uninstall bloatware. I am happy as can be
Sent from my SGH-T859 using XDA App
point me to the recovery image you used, I'll dump a nand and upload it (asking for link just to ensure you get exactly what you need)
HI
Hi, I have a model like yours, t-mobile model: SGH-T859, if you send me a step by step I can send the files you need to get your table
Anyone has a solution for this right now?
I am stuck with the same problem
Thanks
Thanks for posting this info, I am sure this post has saved a lot of ppl from jumping off the same cliff.
Hi guys
Sorry but i am a noob to all this so have proberly stupid questions.
After flashing to a customer rom i went back to a stock t-mobile rom. Problem i now face is when i try to download apps from other companies that are not on the app store eg mfortune they are unable to detect the type of phone i am using so i get "sorry we do not currently support your device" despite being able to do so before rooting and flashing. Is there a way i can change this with the release of skyGo on android this month i want to be able to download it. As it will be only on the galaxy s2 and HTC phones for some time i dont really want to wait.
Any help please???
Did you do a full whipe? Adding some details like model number, the rom you flashed and the one you came from may get you some more useful results.
As for the skyGo app, it won't take more than a day for it to pop up as an APK somewhere on the net.
Hello
Thanks for the reply i am currently in work so i cant look at my phone but will update on which firmware and kernal version i am running
I did however follow this guide to root reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobile-phones/how-to-root-your-samsung-galaxy-s2-50004972/[/url]
Not sure if that helps i did not however use the guide to flash the secure kernal maybe thats where i have gone wrong.
I will update the thread with the info later.
Thanks again
I bought my S2 last January, and even that I didn't really care about rooting, I've came across these " Make the best out of your s2" articles and I decided to give rooting a shot.
I managed to root it and flash insecure kernel on it and everything was alright. However, I've heard that ICS4 can only be updated via KIES if I'm not on Root/insecure kernel, so I went ahead opened the application " S2 Root",and unrooted successfully. Nevertheless, I wasn't able to get rid of the kernel, which is perventing me from updating.
I've have searched on the forum, and I came across an article suppling stock roms, but it was all on multiupload, which is down since a while.
I'm aware that I can update to ICS4 using odin, but I'm more into the official way since I didn't really see a reason in rooting ( after I did ), well I'm certain it's because I'm just a casual user, who wants to call, or just play with some apps.
Some Info about my phone:
Samsung Galaxy Sll ( Of course )
JPKF3 Built!
I'd really appreciate if someone can link me to the above stock rom ( I've searched and find none), or just tell a method where I can remove this kernel in any possible way.
Much appreciated, and thanks in advance.

if you wan't to upgrade you don't need to unroot, just flash firmware trough odin (addicted to your country)
also to unroot just flash with oding (stock firmware) and wipe data/factory reset and done,
threads are everywhere in general just look around

Since this topic is started might aswell use it instead of making a new one...so my question is:
From what I've read, in order to install CM7.2 on a Galaxy S2, you also need to install a custom kernel...so if I did all that, and want revert back to my original ROM and kernel, I just flash a stock ROM from Sammobile? Or the Kernel will remain the custom one (if so, how do I change it back to the stock one)?

Nope your kernel won't be left until you flash a Rom which has no kernel, but all Samsung roms out there have kernels inside the flashable tar or zip, you ain't smart if you don't provide a kernel which is made specially for the Rom
