Is it possible to install CWM on Galaxy Tab 10.1 without the help of ODIN? Can one simply install ODIN through the recovery mode for GT 10.1?
Are there any tutorials available online? I searched, but could not find any.
Use an update.zip to root it (find it in a sticky at the dev section), install rom manager from market, and flash cwm from there. When I did that though, my wifi module became corrupted somehow and a factory reset fixed the problem.
Btw: I have a 7500. Don't know if the update.zip works in other models, but it should. Read the thread carefully!!
EDIT: Search the dev section for a thread by Lorddeff07.

hello there
i did root my galaxy s2 but when i install rom manger from market
no clockworkmod
how to enter recovery mode in sgs2
please advise
You install recovery by following the instructions contained here.
ROM Manager doesn't support the SGSII yet.
You posted in the wrong thread also.
thank alot
I've been searching all over the forums for hours and I can't seem to get a viable solution to my problem. Here's what happened:
New Samsung Galaxy S2 AT&T
I used the cyanogenmod wiki site to flash clockworkMod recovery:
not realizing that there was a separate page specifically for the S2 for AT&T....so end result is ClockworkMod recovery 4.0.1.4 instead of 5.0.2.3 using Heimdall suite. I don't know if this makes a difference
So with reboot my back and search buttons wouldn't work so I did a factory reset, now I'm stuck in boot loop
Went into CWM recovery, did clean wipe, but it won't let me flash any zip files (gives "no file or directory" error and installation aborted)
I never flashed any ROM's, just the CWM recovery
I don't know what to do. Please help.
I apologize if this is answered elsewhere, but I made an honest effort to search for it.
just follow this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309301 and flash 3 .tar files in odin...
Thanks for the reply zking. I actually saw that thread but wasn't sure if it was applicable. I'm a little confused. I've flashed CWM recovery before on other phones (G1 and G2) without any problems, but those required that I rooted them as well. The cyanogenmod site for the SII seemed (at least to me) to have indicated that root may not be necessary to flash a ROM. Is this true or am I just misinterpreting?
So as it stands, my phone is not rooted. Can this be reason I'm having a problem with CWM recovery? It's not giving me a mounting error, just says file doesn't exist, when I know it's there. Is it looking for .tar format?
and when you say flash 3 .tar files in odin....which files are you referring to (may be dumb question)
First flashed the required firmware from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
than root accordingly as mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126522
after rooting as per the above method you ll have CWM recovery installed...and you can start using it accordingly.
Don't listen to zking. He's getting you to flash more wrong firmware to your phone. Go to the AT&T forum and download the correct cwm from there. The AT&T version of the phone doesn't work with I9100 firmware.

hello, I have noticed that when you install rom manager and flash CWM with it, It makes the sch-i905 (SGT LTE) go into bootloop. I believe this is because the one that rom manager flashed was for wifi only... can someone explain to me how to possibly flash a clockworkmod recovery to stop the boot loop? or am I wrong and there's something else I have to do? Thanks for all the help in advance.
ROM manager isn't all encompassing when it comes to supporting the flashing of various ROMs and recoveries on all Android devices so what you're finding is what others already know; it doesn't support the GT 10.1 models well.
About the only reason I'd use ROM manager on my tablet would be to run the fix permissions from within the OS itself. Instead though, I just do it in CWM and I do not have ROM manager installed.
Dump ROM manager on the tab and use the latest CWM that pershoot distributed instead:

There's a link to his blog site in the original post in that thread. Download links for your tab version (SCH-i905) are there as are instructions for using Odin to flash it.
The app itself doesn't direct the files properly on where it needs to be pasted
I know I've asked twice but I was in the wrong forum and I need help. So I've been searching around everywhere for a fix to this, but the problem is that I'm trying to root my Gtab 10.1 and I cannot get past the flashing CWM Recovery. I did it through Odin it says passed and everything but when I try to boot into the recovery, instead appears the Stock Recovery. I've been searching around everywhere and someone told me to go and download the lastest CWM Recovery from Clockwork's website. I did however it is an .img file in which I have no clue how to make into a .tar file. (I know I'm a complete noob) but please help me I'm stuck with no where to go
I'm running Android 4.0.4 ICS ftw
Ok so I flashed the twrp for my Galaxy Tab s3 and everything went as planned but then when I go to boot in recovery mode it just boot loops till I just force it to stop and ten it will boot back in to my os but it will not allow me to boot in recovery mode to flash the supersu file any ideas guys? Really need to root this tablet and in a hurry so if anyone can shed some light on this that would be great also can not find the stock rom for this Tablet on any of the sites either
Has anyone rooted their Galaxy Tab S3?
I'd suggest reading the twrp/root thread, and finding the correct version of twrp to flash. I had to flash one of the versions that was posted later in the thread (I am running the firmware that shipped with my wifi tab S3) https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s3/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-0-1-samsung-galaxy-t3581359/post72228835#post72228835 Good luck...
edit: or flash this firmware from http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=1D0F4E90377111E7963AFA163EE8F90B. It should get you running then you should be able to follow the instructions from the twrp/root thread. (not sure what thread I saw this in to thank them....)
