Sadly no....
Either Kies the update to the device,( for unrooted stock devices) or use the stock rooted version from the "note everything" thread...(pending a rooted device of course.) Or you can Odin push the .tar image from another PC.
"Bigfau" has 3 stock rom variants, all rooted, and all stock. these are zip files, so I'm guessing you are already rooted with CWM ?
If so...you can just download/flash these variants....g

Yeap you will, there is just one problem. Kies is region bound, so where EU gets official ICS update, and you live somewhere in the middle east? You won't get the update till there is an arabic/regional firmware released via kies.

Only problem is, updating via Kies makes you lose your root.

Nevermind Thanks... I found a really simple tutorial. Sorry for the dumb question...
Hi,
So I have the Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7500R (R is for Rogers Canada version) and it states that it is a 4G device but NOT LTE - only HSPA+ so not REAL 4G but thats what the box says anyways... Lol.
Can I use this file to root my tab? Do I place the .zip on the root of my SD card and then just flash from STOCK recovery or is this an ODIN file?
Also... Once rooted, how do I get CWM? Do I just need to D/L the Rom Manager app from the market and flash recovery from there?
Please advise and sorry for all the questions. I have rooted my old SGS, my SGSII and my Galaxy Nexus (among others) using different methods and I just want to ensure this is done right the FIRST time with no problems.
Thanks in advance...
I would suggest you do a backup before you flash the recovery, I havent heard many with the Roger's tablet.

I have already successfully rooted and flashed CWM with ROM Manager and everything is working like a charm.
The Rogers version of the tablet is marketed as a 4G (even says so when I have my SIM card in) but it is NOT an LTE device so really it is a GLORIFIED 3G/3.5G device.
I followed all steps I found to root the 3G model and voila... ROOTY TOOTY GOODNESS!!! Lol.
It is quite confusing so I hope a MOD can make a sticky somewhere to keep Rogers Tab owners from flashing the WRONG root files and such.
To flash the rooting file, can I go into recovery then choose update from a file and that's it? Or do I have to go through long tutorials?

Would you like to share how you rooted? I have a P7500 Swedish version (P7500XWLB1) ; running 3.2 or 3.23 (latest version). I have access to that rom if somethings fail. But SuperOneClick does not work and I just want to be able to rot and unrot. How do I manage that without CM and stuff like that?
I have not found a post or guide to rot and unrot the latest version, most guides are for 3.1, and I also would like to be able to unrot so I can use Kies once it comes.

I don't think that will work since Voodoo needs some sort of entry so you (or it) can flash the new/old root access.
This at least requires a hacked recovery or CWM since the Samsung-official one does not allow unsigned code to be loaded.

Maybe factory reset, reinstall voodoo root keeper and try again???? Update should have worked based on the steps you took. I've never heard of an ota not installing because of root.
So I did something really really dumb and did the OTA update to 4.3 then tried to "downgrade" to 4.1.x using oden and now I cant use my device. Does anyone have the OTA update for 4.3 available for download that I can try to fix my phone with?!?
go to sammobile. com and download it there.

Meat & Potatoes:
I tried ODINing my GN2 back to stock 4.1.2 tonight - I rooted it a couple months ago. Did not install a custom ROM, just rooted (the process also replaced the Recovery).
Tried ODINing back to stock using the files and information found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207
When I run ODIN, it simply fails. Tells me "0 succeeded / 1 failed". Phone still works, I just can't get anywhere in the rolling back to stock bit.
Longer Version:
I've had the phone since the end of January 2013. I rooted it for a couple of reasons, mostly to get rid of bloatware, but also for an app or two that needed root access. I've had zero problems with usability or stability of the device before or since the rooting.
I couldn't tell you which root process I used, but I know it came from an XDA thread, and it automatically replaced the recovery with something touch-based. I'm not sure of the name of the recovery. It did not replace the ROM - I've had less than desirable results from using non-stock ROMs in the past on a handful of other devices, so I wasn't about to risk it.
Since VZW is rolling out the 4.3 update and it looks like a good deal, I want to get my phone back to non-rooted, non-custom-recovery'd state so I can install the update. I'm also doing it because I'm hoping they get the phone up to 4.4 down the line so I can use HCE and GWallet.
Currently, I'm downloading (very slowly, thanks sammobile, for not hosting files on your own servers) the stock VZW 4.3 package from Sammobile.com in hopes I can do something with that and just go straight up from where I am, but I'm not holding my breath since the OTA fails due to the custom recovery.
Any thoughts on what I might try differently to get ODIN to work?
Guys I had the same issue. What I did to resolve my issue is:
1. Get the Verizon upgrade assistance installed on your PC . Here's one from scoobysnack (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47368638&postcount=7&nocache=1&z=2813086102250963)
2. Boot to download mode
3. plug in USB and wait for the update message on your PC
4. Update should take about 30-40 min depending on your connection speeds.
5. once updated, your phone should boot back to normal, but you will LOSE everything and have to start all over.
Hope this helps.
