HOW TO ROOT coming from ICS STOCK FIRMWARE?

Hi all,
I have European Version of the Galaxy Tab 8.9 P7310 Wifi only.
I at least waited for the official Stock ICS Update to finally go and root my phone now. My first impression is that I made my life a little bit harder now.
As is can see so far in the forum there is only the possibility to flash CWM recovery from odin and after that go root as described in suwandiapr thread here:
**NEWEST P7310 ICS FOR USA RETAIL**[STOCK ROM]GT-P7300/P7310 odin image at One Place
Now I have a few questions. Can I use this method described in the thread for my European Galaxy Tab as well?
Can I use a CWM 6.0.0.8 file to flash with odin? Or only the versions shown in the thread?
Should be possible to unpack the "recovery.img" from a flash file prepared to be flashed from recovery, right? For example the one in the TOOLKIT thread from nirogu325 that is inside the Toolkit package
[GUIDE & TOOLKIT][8.04.12] One-stop Guide for 7300/7310
Finally, is there a possibility to flash root file from stock ics recovery. Becaus only possibility if have in stock recovery is to choose option "apply update from external storage" and when I choose this option the phone will show me "E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard]" and I have no access to my data in /sdcard folder.
Thanks for your replys.
Feels like people aren't searching....
I answered similar question yesterday...
I would recommend to use the stock ICS file for Odin flash. If you want, you can follow that up with an Odin-flashable recovery & a root.zip flashed from recovery.
see e.g.
Odin-flashable recovery (I still prefer the slightly older 5.1.2.6 - for a more complete and logical menu than 5.5.0.4; and more reliable than 6.x)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30839339&postcount=52
for root package:

Edit, to answer your other questions.
- There is no Odin package for cwm 6.0.0.8, so you can't use that directly over stock ICS.
- you can not use stock ICS recovery to flash anything at all, no root.zip, no nothing. Reason is that it does not mount sdcard correctly
- all of this will work on p7300/7310 of any region
Sorry fred_be9300, I searched a lot before opended this thread. Maybe not good enough, but I just want to get sure that I do everything correct before bricking my device.
So, thanks for your answers, this helped me to be completly sure what I have to do.
I sucessfully flashed the CWM with ODIN and after that installed the root.zip from CWM Recovery.
It was easier than I thought before, verything worked fine for me. Now I´m happy with my rooted Stock ICS for the moment and hoping for some more cool custom roms!
Thanks a lot!

How about package from my thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582943
It works for me..
That a busybox and su binary fix.. You can use that package for implementing v6 supercharger from zeppelinrox..
Got it done.. Shameful how easy it was to do after the kies update.

Have you tried a custom rom yet? Most of them have built in root.

Probably whatever was the first root package you tried, has messed things up. It may be preventing the other packages from installing properly.
It might work to run an unroot package to clean up; not tested that myself.
I vouch for the success of installing ICS + CWM5.1.2.6 + kk_root_ics. Try it clean, if nothing else works.

Thanks @ upconvert & fred_be9300
after a wipe i used v2 from here and it works very well!
Right back atcha
Thanks for my first "thanks!" I've been desperately trying to help people so I can shake my xda noob status and participate in the dev forums. I've been into android modding for a few years, but on a different forum that was more active for my phone. It's nice when someone says thanks!

Wow you really picked up an oldie!
I would recommend you move on to a newer ics *for p7300* though. The one you are on now, was ported in August, from the initial p7500 (tab 10.1) ics release. When used on p7300, it tends to give battery miscalibration issues after one or several charge cycles. The thread you linked is full of the complaints.

At the moment i´m just glad it works but thanks for the info! Have you got a link?
There's about half a dozen roms to choose from. I can't post links, cuz I'm a noob to xda, but the 8.9 android development forum has all the threads. Look for the most recent version of each and browse the threads to see what people thought of them.

SGH-i957 ATT LTE - Incredibly slow...

Hey guys I can't find any other threads with people experiencing the same thing that I am, so I'm posting a new thread.
I have a new SGH-i957. I rooted it and installed twrp 2.1.4. I created a backup of my stock rom. Then, I wiped and flashed CM10 by nvrate. Everything was going fine and everything worked awesome.Then, I decided to try out Dan's [ROM] [3. 2][4.0.4] DannoRom_2.0.6 Oct 16. I made a backup in TWRP, then Flashed. Once it loaded it was mind blowingly slow and everything froze up. So, i rebooted into recovery, did a full wipe, fix permissions, etc, then restored my CM10 backup. Now, it's doing the same thing. everything is incredibly slow and unusable. I tried the same process to revert back to stock, and i get the same thing. I've tried re-flashing different kernels, from stock rooted, DaGOCkernel, and DaG's 1944mhz oc. All have the same result.
I've tried restoring to danno's stock telus 4.0.4, and it's the same as well. It seems like no matter what I do, it doesn't help. I can't use my tablet at all, and I'm wondering if there is anything i can do to fix this. Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.
Did you flash another radio other than what is included with the 4.0.4 rom?
I found that to be the source of my issues with extreme lag making my tablet unusable.
I did a full wipe, caches, flashed Dans ics 4.0.4 rom with the stock radio... Then wiped again and flashed nvrates build... Tablet works great.
Btw, posted this in the wrong forum lol

That must be it! I flashed the i717 (note) radio. Sigh.
Is the stock radio included in Dans ics 4.0.4 rom od do i need to grab it separate? If its not included, do you know where i can download it?

That's your problem. The radio is included in the ROM. Wipe, flash...that will fix it. Then you can wipe and flash nvrates ROM and it will keep that radio.
Hope that helps

Thank you so much! Hopefully this takes care of the problem!
Admins/mods, sorry for posting this in rhe wrong forum. If you could move it to the correct area I would appreciate it!
ALL SET!
ok so I grabbed a modded radio from HERE and flashed it after flashing the latest AOKP release from Dan, and everything is now golden!
Thank you again for cluing me in to the radio fix. I thought I had a shiny new brick.
Mods, feel free to close.
Flashing the Rogers radio solved my problem.

[Q] Where to find newest CWM-Recovery?

Hey,
I hope this is the right thread.
I have problems with the newest MIUI, as I can't install GAPPS and I get an error (status 6).
Reading through threads, I read that I need to update my CWM-Recovery.
Thought on the official site I only find: recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-galaxys.zip
But I can't install this one either (status 0) and the version number is quite different from the current one I have (cwm recovery 6.0.2.8) - I think I need to try 6.0.3.2 if that is the newest.
Does anyone know where I can find this version?
I only found one for I9001, but that is the Galaxy S Plus and I'm not sure if I could use that aswell.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
Albaniax
What kernel are you on right now?

Re:
Hey mate,
I already read, I need to upgrade my kernel to a new AOSP ROM.
My current one is 3.0.71.-01982-g41ece4e
I think I can do this with Odin? Do I have to wipe/delete all data everything before?
At the beginning of installing MIUI, I have went with this one (in German): androidpit.de/de/android/forum/thread/456654/Installationsanleitung-Android-2-3-6-JVU-Root-Bilder-und-Erklaerungen-Einfach-und-Kurz
So I went to stock, then installed the "CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS".
Now for a new kernel, do I install this only as a PDA without re-partitioning & Moden/CSC?
Thanks,
have a look at this thread
look at this thread, this kernel based on kernel 3.0.80 and includes CWM 6.0.3.2
and u can flash it with odin, select the files with *.tar
Semaphore JB 2.9.26

CWM stopped working [ROM][GT-N7000][4.3] CyanogenMod 10.2 experimental builds

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the great rom. I really appreciate it.
After flahing my second version (August 1)including full wipe I somehow managed to destroy cwm. I can still boot the OS as well as download mode but instead of CWM there is just a black screen. I also tried to flash a New CWM with rommanager and twrp with goomanager. It didn'change anything.
What can I do to get a working recovery if possible without full wipe again (too much work)? This way I'm unable to flash anything.

No need to open a thread for a already known problem that is discussed in the 10.2 thread in General.
If you install a very early experimental build you could at least read in the related thread. Or consider installing a Stock Rom.
And as other members you have to install a new Rom with PC Odin to eliminate the problem. I made this already two times - and now use an older 10.2-kernel as workaround.
But please use the thread in General for further postings related to CM10.2, ok?
I'm sorry I was coming from CM 10, CM 10.1 and for a year or so I was no longer forced to care about such problems for quite a while. So I couldn't find the thread you linked. Xplowild closed his thread and I was a bit lost with so many threads.
Thanks for your help!

If you have problems with CWM you should check here the points 8 and 26 to 30. I have the some problem but unfortunately I have no clue how to fix it, even with those tips, but maybe it'll work for you. And if you'll find any easy way to install CWM for stock recovery <3e> please let me know, I've been struggling with it for quite some time now.
Also remember to choose right CSC when installing stock rom - you can check what your code is here.
