Hello everyone,
I am a long time read of xda and a new forums user.I would like to thank "pzyduck" in the link above for his bringing us all the jelly bean for xt910 phones.
Reason for my post, the retail uk rsdlite jelly bean install worked perfect however i lost root, even though i used ota rootkeeper app.My problem is i need to establish root again.I have made backups of ota rootkeeper, superuser and system cwm from my previous install of ics and i was wondering is their anyway to get root back from my "motomizor app" stormbird backups?If anyone can help me with any good suggestions please reply and if successful i have no problems uploading my backups so other users can establish root again.
Try this if it works fo ya :thumbup:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231142
Hit the thx button if i helped ya in anyways
Rsdlite wiped my root. This thread you provided won't help much. I was thinking of something in the terms of using terminal emulator and my backup and file swapping in order to establish root again somehow.

I did google that and all tutorials I found were for the WiFi version. I have honeycomb 3.2 installed. I have another question, after rooting, will I still be able to get notified of new official updates through Kies?
Thanks in advance!

Flash via CWM. Also why Kies? Kies is horrible, very poor support from Kies.

Is there a different rooting file for the 3G version? Could you please provide a link for the rooting and unrooting files?
Thanks!
No, it's all the same. File is attached.
Thanks a lot!
I must have CWM recovery installed, or I can do it over stock recovery?

No. Stock only accepts Google signed files. Rooting is not part of Googles "master plan"

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.

As he said it will be no problem I personally updated to 3.2 while i was rooted with no problems

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

Ok, I flashed through stock recovery and everything is working like a charm!

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 plan to buy s3 but i have a question in mind. I dont like to install custom roms and only need to root the s3 in order to install Titanium Backup Pro.So if i root it and not install custom recovery and no other mod just superuser and titanium backup pro will i be able to get fota update. And also can i easily unroot it and go back to as it was before?
Don't root, BUY the games, get updates.
Cracked games are bad mkay?

Using cf.root you can keep the phone as close to stock as possible and have root, you can still get official updates through KIES but OTA downloaded updates seem to be giving ppl problems.
To slaphead20 and burden010 just cause the guy doesnt want custom roms doesnt mean hes cracking games or doing anything illegal. I only rooted my stock rom so I could fully use titanium backup and mybackup pro, plus custom roms arent that far from stock at the moment anyway so give the guy a break.
edit :- I see OP has edited his post maybe he did announce he was doing something wrong.

Thanks and im very sorry people. Will surely read the rules before posting.
If you have only a rooted stock Rom then you should be fine for receiving ota updates. Worst that might happen is you will loose root.

Hi to all,
This is my first post here, hoping for some help-
I install ics 4.0.4 and trying now to upgrade to 4.1.2 cm10 rom or to any other you can tell me about that's working good..
and i'm getting this message over and over again.
I get it everytime now when trying to install something from recovery.
And another thing,
In superuser i have a line in red saying - root shell- and from that point on i cant allow any root app to work.
Any help? (-:
Thanks..

Is JB 4.1.2 supposed to be better or something?
I have been avoiding the constant incesant prompt to install the new update 4.1.2 as I did not know what it had to offer.
IMO, these phones are running on what now are obsolete, outdated hardware. they're meant to be ran by bigger processors & more ram. case & point - to ask em to run the new stuff, one could expect them to run slower.
So I accidently hit "install" about a month ago. My google search takes 10 seconds to upload. so does my text and my maps. I'm not fond of it one bit.
Thats my experience. is this supposed to be a better version than ICS? It seemed like ICS ran a whole lot smoother on the razr. any opinions?
thanks
I've tried several methods to root my phone and I just want to make sure, before I try this one, that it will work with my phone.

Hi,
I mostly was active on Desire HD, Galaxy S and HD2 threads so far.
I just got a Razr few days ago and been reading and searching but cannot find way to root it.
It is XT910K model, from South Korea, running ICS 4.0.4., system version 67.42.46.xt910k.kt.en.kr with firmware configuration gas_asia_spydericskt_p009, build number 6.74-27_sa-46.
Does anyone knows how to root this version of the Razr?
Thanks.

For those who want to remove the superuser in Chinese, just flash the superuser from Chainfire with recovery, this will replace the Chinese.
