You don't need sdk to install cwm. Superoneclick has adb in it.
But to answer your sdk question: developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Sorry dude. Start reading the stickies. Get used to the idea that you need to figure out the simple things by actually reading stuff. After some personal input, people are of course prepared to answer any questions you have might have.

First off, this thread is in the wrong section. This is not development related.
Second, since its been asked anyway, you could start off by searching and reading stickes as suggested by androidsjonnie
And my suggestion is to decide on a custom ROM to use and follow the install instructions provided for that ROM. AFAIK, by default samsung rom's, cannot be flashed using clockwork recovery. you will have to rely on odin for them.
And if you just need clockwork recovery, you start by downloading ROM Manager.
**** Topic name !
Read Stickys and learn to use the Search Function !
don't be hard on the iPhone user! we all know how they are..
If you've read the info on ClockWork recovery.. It needs a compatible Kernel to work.. so checkout the kernels at the dev't section..

You could use that above.
i picked up a used first generation(7" SCH-I800) VZW Galaxy Tab on Craigslist a couple weeks ago and have had a series of problems while trying to root it or even connect it to my computer.
im looking for Verizon specific instructions if anyone can make that happen.
i have a Windows 7 64bit PC and every time i try to install the drivers it fails. i do NOT have the Kies option in the USB connect menu in settings, only Media Play and Mass Storage. i downloaded Kies from Samsung website and installed it, and again the driver failed to install properly.
i know theres a bunch of people out there with rooted/rom'd Verizon branded Tabs. i'd love to figure out how you guys are doing it.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
nothing? nobody here has a rooted Verizon Tab?
I've got the same tab. Been trying to root it for weeks. Z4 wont work, superoneclick hangs and the tab turns off but only goes into standby and doesnt really get rooted. I would deff make a donation to anyone who can help, I cant wait to get rid of all the verizon bloatware on this thing!

Im going to be real with y'all this to me is the most weird root i have ever had to do. I have rooted every android device i have owned with no problem but this just doesn't make sense to me. How do I root this blasted thing? No one can give me a straight answer some say zroot that doesn't work some say superoneclick that doesn't work. Is it the fact that its the sch 1800 from verizon? I don't understand why this device is so difficult to root can some one point me to a video or a direct like so i can read up on it cause its not making sense to me.
Thanks

Hey,you can flash kernel to have root via Odin for your PC. It is easy.
Then, I heard about Unlock Root app for PC which does rooting by two - three clicks via USB-debugging for 2.2-4.0.3 . (I didn't use it, I have pre rooted 4.0.4 )
Then you can just flash a rom with root,cwm,ext4-filesystem.
That is the way to taste Android 4.0.4 that is really awesome
Sorry, I can't paste links right now but I wish I helped you
A good start for you would be to flash the overcome ROM.
Here is a copy of the Installation Guide (with images)
Here is a link to the Overcome website
Simply follow the instructions and you'll be fine with a brilliant new rooted ROM.
If you want to go to ICS then I can recommend Cyanogenmod 9 - there are several ICS ROMs based on CM9 out there so I'll leave it to you to search them out; however my advice is start with Overcome to get a feel for the PC tools and CWM recovery.
Good luck

Hi all; firstly sorry for my bad english (Because I may not explain my wish well);
I want to root and later unroot my s3 mini but I didnt find any consistent information about it.
Someone wrote about this topic but I couldnt trust them (for example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2yoxhfzq3sm21aj/Root-i8190-Signed.zip)
Is there a reliable/tested/working root and unroot file (like root.zip , unroot.zip) for s3 mini and anyone trying this?
Please help me, I will be very grad if you do.
Thank you for your help in advance
***not rooted flash roms; only need root and unroot files.

You need CWM to root it. Altough i'm not certain that the method above will work.
I am sure you can't brick your device if you fail.

Download Odin 1.85 or 1.87 and the kernel Speedmod.
Use Odin to flash the kernel;
Put your phone in download mode.
Put the kernel file in the PDA slot.
Flash and let it reboot.

That's why XDA has a search function.
Before you go any further, I highly suggest you read and understand what you're doing to avoid anything going wrong.
