Looking at your user info, I'm guessing you have a verizon CDMA tab. The CDMA tabs are a little trickier to root than the GSM ones I believe.
Your best bet is to flash a pre-rooted ROM. As they are already rooted, all you have to do it setup odin/heimdall/ROM_manager. That is what I did with my sprint CDMA tab. There should be plenty of rooted ROM's to pick from.
good luck

is there one that is 100% stock

You simply flash a rooted gingerbread kernel. Find Chainfire's CF-Root v3.3 kernel. You flash it through odin.

Thats for gsm i need cdma vzw

I'm going to assume you're on the stock firmware for your VZW tab from your signature.. From what I know you shouldn't have to mess with the bootloaders to get your Tab rooted. You can purchase the VZW bootstrapper app in the market to get rooted froyo, or you can check the development section for OldMacNut's VZW Gingerbread leak that is rooted. So just depends on what you want to do with your Tab. SuperOneClick should also work if you just want to root the stock froyo setup.
Thanks, yes it is a stock verizon gtab, my ultimate goal is to upgrade to gingerbread, thank you for the info

Thanks
Checking it out now!
If you want to go to the stock, go to the thread by ramad mentionned above and flash UGKG3, it's the latest and greatest stock bell firmware, as well as being rooted and deodexed. I'm running it now, works great.

Ok ill take a look at that too. How long have you been running that on your phone? Will I be able to update my phone in the future via kies if I wanted to?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
You can update using kies, it's detected and read by the kies client. I've been running it for a few weeks, never a single problem. It has busybox 1.19 installed in the bin folder, but you can just install an older one to sbin or xbin if you really need to. I really recommend it, I had a lot of trouble trying to root the stock 2.2.3 on my own.

Nope

Thanks again. Just one more question: how to flash? I have a first GB 2.3.4 for CDMA (ported from GB Sprint, I believe so) flashed with Heimdall but there is no correct CWR installed. Should I install Galaxy Cubed 3 or similar ROM first? Or how to install this ROM using Heimdall? Sorry but I can't find the answer on the forum mentioned above....
I've asked some people about how to flash this with no help. And as you can see no one really cares to much about the VZW SGT, well the SCH-I800 anyways. Rite now i'm happy with just having root.

[Q] Rooting and installing a customer rom for T849

I was wondering if rooting your tablet using Z4root is the same as rooting using odin? Also if rooting this way is fine, what steps can I take to flash from my crappy froyo to a custom ics rom and which in youre opinion goes well with this tablet? Thanks fellas!

Restock to overcome.
There are plenty of threads where I responded to T849 (I own one)
Just search.
Edit: here you go

BTW: rooting isnt equal installing custom ROM. In fact they are mutually exclusive.
And to install custom rom you will likely need CWM Recovery, and the easiest and sure method to do is by following Overcome method.

[Q] Optus branded GSM P1000

Hey guys,
I've always had bad luck with Samsung devices, so I figured I should ask here before I start flashing.
It's a GT-p1000 on 2.2, I want something newer - Jelly Bean, ICS, whatever. Something stable.
Baseband
P1000XXJID
Kernel
2.6.32.9
Build
FROYO.XWJJ4
I know how to root, I know I need to install ClockwordMod Recovery. Which ROM can I definitely use without bricking? I've read mixed things.
Cheers
