Good Morning,
I'm having the hardest time rooting my galaxy tab 10.1 I just bought. It came with android 4.0.4. I followed this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBd9gMFCCrA
and this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI4ZredrFNc
I couldn't find a video on here dealing with rooting android 4.0.4 maybe I didn't look in the right place.
The first thing that is different in all the videos I've been watching is when you turn the tablet off. and press power button+volume down buttton the screen that show on everybodys video I have watched so far has 2 icons that show up one on the left the look a box one on the right that looks like an android symbol. Yet on my device all I get is the screen that says download mode. Just wanted to point that out might be the reason why this isn't working for me.
Ok so when I get in to download mode another thing that is going on is on the screen it says custom binary download 3 I assume that is on there because I have tried 3 times. anyways I load up the recovery tar file in odin. I have my device in download mode and connect to my computer I hit the start button it goes all the way through and says pass and the device reboots. I shut the device down.
The next step I'm trying to get in to the clock work recovery by holding down the power button + volume down and it is suppose to take me in to the recovery every single time I do it it takes me to the stock android system recovery <3e>. In yellow letters on the screen it says # MANUAL MODE #
---Applying Multi-CSC...
Applied the CSC-code : XAR
Succesfully applied multi-CSC
I have no clue what the above means but I cannot get this system in a clockwork recovery mode to save my life.
If anybody can help me are like me to the correct video that I'm suppose to be following I would really appericate. Thank You In Advance.
Just flash a CWM recovery using Odin, then once it's on there use the rooting zip and that's all there is to it.
I'll find the link to the files and update this post with the details.
But first, you need to tell us if it's the Wi-Fi only or 3G.
Better yet, give us the full model number to make sure you're in the right forum.

I am having the same issue! I am running ICS 4.0.4 and cannot root for the life of me! I unrooted to get the upgrade and now I cannot root again. I've tried everything short of throwing it in a wall and using my extended warranty for a new one!! I am so fed up that i barely use the paper weight anymore!! I truly have no use for it unless it's rooted! I want google now, which is not on ICS, atleast not MY upgrade! Please, someone, ANYONE help!
BTW, I have the WI-FI version and I've already tried odin, mobile odin, rom manager, and even the update.zip and CWM recovery, NO LUCK! HEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPP!!!!
**********When trying to flash CWM Recovery through ROM Manager, I get "An error occiured while attempting to run priviledged commands!"
**********SuperUser and BusyBox are not working!
**********No matter how many times I flash update.zip, I get nothing, nada, zip!! Please help!!!
******BUSYBOX ERROR MESSAGE******
There was a problem opening a shell with root access. This is either being caused by superuser/supersu or by a device that is inproperly rooted.
Try removing superuser/supersu permissions, uninstalling this application, reinstalling this application, and then regranting superuser/supersu permissions for this application.
Right, which tabs do you guys have, specific model numbers, GT-P7500 or GT-P 7510 etc...

Yeah me too! I thought It was just me. I have the GT-P7510 WIFI Only. Sure would love a fix for this beast.
Make sure you've got a CURRENT root package for your tablet. I had an old one that I downloaded almost a year ago and tried to install that after the upgrade. It looked like it installed correctly, but didn't actually get root permissions set on the su binary.
I installed SuperSU instead and it worked just fine.
Try
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyTab10.1/rooting/GalaxyTabHacks.com_SuperUser.zip
as that claims to be current.
This is not a tutorial, I will not explain how android works or how to flash or how to root. I just want to explain what I did to get my S6 Edge SM-G925X working as a WiFi Phablet.
I'm not responsible when you do something wrong to your device and brick it!
Don't ask for fully functionality - the radio parts on the board are missing and so you will not get mobile calls or sms texts or 2G/3G/4G data connection.
Yesterday I got a S6 Edge LDU (SM-G925X) but was not able to really turn off the retail mode software (even with the right passwords found by google). PingPong root didn't work and CF-auto-root I didn't want to use because of tripping the knox flag (it would not really matter but I didn't want to)
So I decided to replace the ROM with a regular S6 Edge stock rom.
I went to sammobile and downloaded the oldest available German stock firmware for the SM-G925F since I'm from Germany. This version: G925FXXU1AOE3_G925FDBT1AODO_DBT.zip
I took the oldest one since I wanted to try PingPong root later again.
I suppose any other firmware should work as well but when it is to new, PingPong root will fail.
The *.tar.md5 file I renamed to *.tar and removed ALL files inside except these five:
boot.img
cache.img
hidden.img
recovery.img
system.img
I flashed the .tar file with ODIN 3.10.6 (3.9 or 3.10 didn't work).
After that I had a S6 Edge without any retail mode software
Then I used PingPong root to root the device and now I have all options and no annoying retail mode. Fingerprint sensor works good else I tested nothing until now.
Now I enjoy my new cool Phablet device but I'm not really sure whether I love the edges or not
I recommend you to turn on flight mode to save energy since the LDU has no radio hardware but the ROM is for regular S6 Edge and tries to connect to mobile network permanently. You can still use WiFi, NFC, Bluetooth.
Don't ask me to upload this or that or to explain it step by step. You should know what to do from what I wrote here ore leave your device alone! (sorry noobs)

Same here. I'm getting the "complete(write) operation failed" error.
Anyone could help? tried different things suggested on the internet, sadly none of them worked.
Try to delete *.bin files right in tar archive with Total Commander. It has full-featured trial and can modify tar without repacking.
I just bought a S6 Edge LDU (LRX22G.G925XXXU1AOC6_LLK) off ebay in hope of getting rid of the Samsung Retail Mode and using it as a wifi device. I followed instruction that I can find on XDA, but mission has not been successful so far. Here's what I have done.
1. Trying to disable Samsung Retail Mode but failed. Password 5444 or any other passwords that I can find just doesn't work, even the menu in Samsung Retail Mode is different: There is no "“Configuration settings”, instead, there is "Store Settings" which asks for password. Without Samsung Retail Mode disabled, the phone can't be restarted nor power off, and the entire Developer Options is greyed out (which means no USB debugging mode, therefore Odin wont work when the phone is on).
2. Flash modified rom for G925F (G925FXXU1AOE3_G925FDBT1AODO_DBT.zip, with cm.bin and sboot.bin removed) succeeded, but the phone stuck at Samsung Logo page with no light on, it also seems the recovery mode is gone, only download mode is still available.
3. I flashed stock recovery for G925F, G925T with Odin. The flash succeeded, but the phone still stuck at Samsung Logo.
4. I tried to fix it with Smart Switch, but after entering model SM-G925X, then the serial found at the back, the program just close it by itself.
Have you disabled Samsung Retail Mode before you flashed the rom for G925F?
This doesn't work on my g925x. I think it's due to the Factory Reset is still locked by Samsung. It will give "MDM does not allow FactoryReset " message when I was trying to wipe data and factory reset via stock recovery. I was able flash a G925f to the unit which changed the baseband version and Build number to G925F, but retail mode is still there and running.
I also can't find a way to disable Samsung Retail Mode. The password 5444 or galaxy just doesn't work.

how are you able to install g925f? i tried to flash base the first thread. Bricked it and now it doesn't boot up. Which version of the firmware for g925f and did you flash similar to the instruction given by OP?
After trial and error I got it. The demo version i had would not work with any of the passwords that i could find online. There were actually 2 part demo software on it. The only thing that i could get odin to flash to my g925x was cf_auto_root then i downloaded root browser from play store. Then i used root browser to manually delete all whole folders and files that had any reference to demo stuff. That pretty well wiped about 99% of it. Security settings still wouldn't let me do a manual restart, power down or do a factory reset. I still could not get odin to flash any other files until the other day when i found these files . https://www.mediafire.com/folder/79cjpyg0s604p/LDU_FIX . I then tried to flash AP and CP files and they both flashed woot woot (they are still the only ones that I can get to flash) upon reboot I could now do a full factory reset, power down, restart, etc... it has been wiped clean Hope this procedure helps. Let me know .
Thanks for that information. I was able to flash the ap and cp but still stuck on the Galaxy s6 edge live demo boot screen. i can't even go to recovery to do a reset. If i understand correctly, it's power+vol up+ home..it would just go directly to the galaxy edge boot screen.
When i use odin to flash ap and cp, it went successful and i was happy thinking that it will actually boot into lollipop. Bummer..

How long did you wait for it to try to boot ? It takes a while for the first boot after a full flash . Also, did you use cf auto root, if so which one ?
i waited at least 30 minutes. Also i didn't root. Do you mean cf auto boot?

2.)I tried to go into recovery mode by pressing Power+Home+Volume Up but it wont enter that mode.
3.)I tried to Use Odin with the fone variant with full AP,BL,CP,CSC and pit ODIN loads all files and give me a PASS message but after this when the fone restarts it tries to go into recovering mode(top lefthand in blue) but it just turns off with a vibrate.

Ah, you beat me to it. Also OP, don't forget to boot into recovery and wipe the data otherwise you'll be stuck in another bootloop, I don't know why but I have to do this on all devices when flashing stock ROM.

before having this issue, my phone is working fine with with android 6.0.1 (PDA G906SKSU1CPF3 | build: 2016-07-10),
than 2 days ago i decided to upgrade it to (PDA G906SKSU1CPL1 | build: 2017-01-03), all the firmware i get from sam mobile.
odin process is working fine, and pass it until my phone showing my homescreen, and i can do anything even installing some aplication from playstore. just looks like it working fine, but im not tested all sensor with this firmware.
the problem is starting when i restart my phone, my phone is having bootloop, no recovery mode, and having same screen distortion like yours, in the bottom right corner.
after that i doing flash again, trying get back to G906SKSU1CPF3 version, but not working good. odin pass it, but bootloop issue still happen. after that, i trying download all android 6.01 and one version of 5.0.1 at sammobile, and flash it one by one, nothing work with my phone. trying to install twrp recovery with odin, is also not work. it confused me, because i dont know what im doing wrong
the phone work, after installing android 4.4.2 G906SKSU1ANFI | build: 2014-06-29. it can fix bootloop, and in this case, i can use my phone again, but with old firmware, screen distortion issue, and not working motion sensor..
installing twrp recovery 3.0.0-0 v4 can be done with odin with this 4.4.2 firmware, but twrp v5 and above is not working.
i get this recovery from https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/recovery-twrp-recovery-v2-8-7-0-t3199011
after that, i using twrp to wipe my phone, with hope it can fix the problem, but nothing happen even after wiping system, and reflash again 4.4.2 with odin. until now still having same problem, but at least i can use my phone
hope you discover better solution, and share with me, because im not sure this is hardware problem.
it sound like the recovery image is corrupted, try SmartSwitch, is a tool from Samsung. Use Emergency software recovery n Initialisation

I have a similar problem with my Sm-G906S too......
--------Post deleted as I have posted the solution I found on the following thread.------------
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ner-thread-t2807639/post77083953#post77083953
My phone is/was a Samsung S5 Neo (SM-G903M) running Android 5.1.1.
I was trying to root the phone to use Titanium Backup, I got a CF-Auto-Root file and used Odin to load the md5 file. I need this root to backup my phone, so I don't have any backup.
The first time, I followed all the instructions and when it reboot I got a red pirate, bootloader locked and the log:
/sbin/unzip: permission denied
/sbin/chcon: permission denied
Then, I tried another CF-Auto-Root file and now my phone is restarting and can't load (bootloop).
1) Is there a way to extract the cache.img and recovery.img file from a stock rom and use Odin to load them?
2) Is there another way to fix this phone with root or not?
3) My wife was the same phone,is it possible to get some file from her phone and fix mine?
It's probably better to flash whole rom if you got warning for bootloader locked but yeah, you can extract from firmware. Open tar.md5 as archive and extract what you want. Make a new tar with the extracted files and flash with odin.
[Solution]
1) Download a stock rom from: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G903M/
2) Untar cache.img and recovery.img
3) Download tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.10.7 from: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446269
4) Unzip and copy cache.img and recovery.img to tar-Tool folder
5) Use the batch.bat to create a tar.md5 file from cache.img and recovery.img
6) Download Odin
7) Follow these instructions:
7.1/ Extract it somewhere and launch it in administrator mode.
7.2/ Put your phone in download mode.
To do it, press & maintain 3 buttons (Menu, volume down & power). Then push "Volume up"
7.3/ Quit Kies. Connect your phone to your PC. Odin will detect it in ID :COM
7.4/ Select "AP" and select the file created by tar-Tool in folder "AllFiles"
7.5/ Verify that only "Auto reboot" & "F-reset" is ticked. Click on Start.
7.6/ Wait till the phone reboots.

In my opinion u need to flash the stock firmware ur mobile was running before the root with odin....u can download from site samsung firmware.You will have to find the exact firmware u were running and your country.thats only way from my opinion.Then try again with autoroot and please download the cf autoroot file only made for lollipop version.I hope u have flashed the correct cf autooot file.
i am very suspicious of my fiance of two years now that she's cheating on me, she has changed passwords to every account that she has, plus put a pin lock on her phone, i have been searching for ways to retrieve her text messages without installing any software on her phone or having access to it, so far i am not having any luck. we have a 19 year history together, plus a beautiful 18 year old daughter & this is eating me up inside. But i finally burst on this page from Google and found the God eye who changed my whole story for good! He help me hack her FB, her emails and her phone number and i got to see all his messages and apps from her phone. only for me to found out she's cheating and have a son out there without my consent but i thank the God eye for letting me know all this and am moving on fine with my life and my daughter. He's also involved in any sort of hacking issues. Hurray!! Get to him on (Godeyeviewhacker AT hotmail DOT com)

The solution I wrote solved my problem. And guess what? My phone is rooted.
Gentlemen, I tried flashing cf-auto-root for M variant (firmware is at UBU1BPK1), but after ODIN Pass! it reboots and just show the message "Recovery is not seandroid enforced".
After that, it reboots again to normal firmware, not rooted.
I even tried un-checking the "auto reboot" option in ODIN, and doing a manual reboot to recovery mode (as it was supposed to force the cf-root to install).
But it just repeats the same behaviour. I kept holding vol_up+button+power and it kept rebooting trying to enter recovery but just showing the message "recovery is not seandroid enforced".
At the time I released the buttons, it rebooted to normal firmware, not rooted.
Tried different Odin versions (3.10.6, 3.12...), nothing did the trick.
Any tips? May I have to try the F variant? (my phone is dual sim, don't know if it'd disable second sim slot)
I've also enabled "USB debug" and "unlocked OEM" under developer settings.
Couldn't find "reactivation lock" option under account settings / security settings.

Just to add that I finally got it working.
Flashed a different country variant (BVO - Bolivia), that has BQA1 firmware and also have the same Modem/CP Version as my ZTO (Brazil) in BPF1. I was afraid of choosing a different variant from Brazil with different modem version, and being not able to use my local area signal provider.
It worked like a charm. I wiped data/factory reset. Then I flashed the BQA1 firmware using ODIN 3.12.3 (last version). Logged in google account (didn't logged on samsung account, neither choosed a lock screen).
Then, flashed cf-auto-root from autoroot.chainfire.eu for g903m BQA1 and it worked like a charm!
Genuine Hacker
I really have to thank Kieran for her review I read on veronica's blog. I've been in search of a genuine hacker for a while to help me hack my husband and a website but I was scammed repeatedly by fakes. After reading kiearan's review on black butcher, I thought it was just another lie but when I dug dip and read other reviews, the hacker turned out highly recommended by other people too. I contacted the hacker and decided to have faith in him. The hacker delivered and I was really impressed... he gave me full access to my husband's phone and hacked the website I wanted without any problem. Now I see why everyone is talking about this hacker and I'm going to join the train. For us looking for reliable hacker, you can imagine my joy after being scammed to finally see someone truthful to get it done. His contact is Blackbutcher.hacker at outlook dot com. contact him and stop being scammed by these fakes out there. My sister also tried him to boost her credit score and clear her credit card debt and he delivered so I can guarantee he's real and knows what he's doing. Thank you black butcher.
Hi Guys!
I have bought a slightly used S7 (G930FD) from a local shop and found out that the phone's status was custom and it was rooted to 7.0.0. I tried the factory reset but the status is same. Then I downloaded Odin 3.13 and downloaded Oreo 8.0.0 from Updato for my country.
But after uploading the files in ODIN and connecting the cable with the phone, I pressed start button, a second later "FAIL" appears and on the device in the download mode, it appears "Secure Check Fail: Bootloader". What is this? I have tried by checking the re-partition and using the Regular CSC file instead of Home_CSC, but on each instance, it fails . What I'm doing wrong?
Another thing I noticed that during the Download mode the phone model is displayed as G930L but on the Android settings in the phone it says G930FD.
Any opinions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
