Man I'm lost too. I'm no noob to rooting and stuff but this stuff makes my head ache. I'm still not seeing exactly how to find the appropriate RUU. I have a US wifi only flyer with Honeycomb 3.2 on it.
Nevermind, I started reading instructions and I'm half way through the process now. I'm on stock honeycomb, unlocked bootloader, recovery installed, and super user app installed. Just waiting for the gingerbread firmware to download, but it takes 6-8 weeks off this stupid filefactory site. I thought I might pay to download quicker, but $12 for a month...what else am I going to download off there to make it $12?
I gotta go to bed soon, looks like I'll have to finish the S-OFF procedure tommorrow. EDIT My tablet is rooted...do I need to go any farther?
Edit again, I'm just going to do it. I want nothing stopping me from flashing ics when it you guys release your awesome project
I have the Galaxy Tab P1000L
I been trying to root it with Superoneclick and with DoomLord Zergrush, I keep failing all attempts, as I did research on this, I found out some info that says it is not possibe to root Gingerbread 2.3.6 (what I have) and that I need to dowgrade to 2.3.5 or to froyo (which is it?) , but SamMobile does not have Froyo available for download anymore...
So basically, I need to know how to root 2.3.6, main reason is I want to be able to change my Tab's HotSpot channel, and I read that this is only possible on a rooted GTab.
Thanks a lot for any help on this, I am new to Android, so trying to learn as much as I can.
( Secondary question: On a quick note, is it possible to upgrade to HoneyComb/is it worth it?)
Hope someone can help, I tried several things yesterday with no success, I had to stop for the day.
My P1000L is from Mexico Telcel with Gingerbread 2.3.6, I would like to downgrade to root, then either re-flash rooted firmware or move up to rooted Honeycomb if that is considered a better option, I am honestly not happy with Gingerbread WiFi performance at all, it wont auto connect to my home WiFi or hold a HotSpot sharing for long before it defaults to AndroidAP +default random password, bfore with Froyo I didnt have that problem. Just want to try custom firmware before I give u on it...
Thanks for any help on this.
Waited a few days but no answer, it must be too newb of a question, the fact is I am a newb at this, i'll try to do my 10 posts so I can do proper searches, this forum is huge.
At this point my better guess is to try downgrading to stock telcel P1000L firmware and then take it from there, GB 2.3.6 just not root friendly at all...
Still, if anybody can offer even a direction to go with this I will appreciate it very much...

Hi, First of all i'd like to thank anyone who has spent their time to come and help me today..
Right my problem. So i've flashed my galaxy tab 2 GT-P3110 Wi-Fi (UK). I wish to know how to revert it back to the original settings (fresh out of the box)
i'll be honest, i'm not the best at of all this. The wife's not happy with what she got (i know right)
wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_2_7.0_(Wi-Fi):_Full_Update_Guide
i followed these steps accordingly. I managed to flash it into cyanogenmod first time. I just wish to go back ics
Any help will be greatly appreciated

I have a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1. It came to me as a pt 5113. When I rooted it and updated the software to 4.3 using cmworld nightly it changed to p5110.
I wanted to downgrade because I wasn't able to use a lot of things and felt limited. However, my tablet won't turn off until it runs out of battery and I'm trying to just return it to the way it was before I tried to downgrade but it's not letting me. So I think it might be bricked. I don't know if it's a soft brick or a hard brick... I'm just so lost. Can anyone help me find how to straighten everything out if it can or provide me with step by step instructions.
Is there a way where I can just start fresh and just turn my tablet back to the way it was when I first bought it?
You might have better luck getting an answer in the Galaxy Tab 2 forums:
