So I been trying to root my phone for about an hour now. I rooted, un-rooted then rooted again, and it seems to have work (obviously you can't tell when your phone is rooted, but oh well). I'm kind of a noob in the Droid 3 section, but then I went to the Market place and downloaded the "ROM Manager", downloaded the CM9 recovery, and had the app boot into recovery but to my surprise, it doesn't work for some reason. I don't under what else I can do, am I rooted? Do I need to manually install CM9 recovery? I just want ICS on my phone, and this is driving me crazy.

Do you have Super User app on your phone ?
Yup. I do, I have no idea where it came from though.

Does it open? Look up the thread for boot two roms at once in the genreal section. Follow that and you will have ICS. You should wait tho, as a new build will be up tonight for ics.

Yup, it opens and shows the applications that I allow, does this mean that I'm rooted for sure? I'll definitely wait for the new ICS rom tonight, just want to make sure if I can boot into recovery. I tried using the "X" and power button but it just gives me the triangle with the "!" logo inside.

I believe in the droid 3...you hold the Power + M for recovery. Not the X.
Root checker is an app that will tell you if you are rooted. You need to either install the droid 3 bootstrap or safestrap to get cwm recovery.

Its kind of either or.
You can hold Power + M, and use the volume keys to select recovery, or you can hold Power + X and it will go to recovery as well.

It gave ya the right screen. But that takes you to the stock recovery. To install roms you will need Clockworkmod Recovery or Safestrap Recovery.

Go with safestrap. Especially if you're new to this.

Well for me from manager doesn't work.. the recovery it installs does not start from app... never tried other way . Uninstaled RM and installed only hashcode's safestrap so you don't need to start in recovery.: it will give you the option to open the cwm menu from boot by pressing menu button when prompted and if nothing done then start normally..
:in hashcode's blog are: instructions for flashing cm9 with safestrap
Good look

Make sure boostrap is uninstalled before trying safestrap that may be causing the issue? Like a failsafe built into the app so you wont accidentally try flashing to different recoveries?

I do not have boot strap installed. When i go to the boot loader and choose recovery it takes me to stock recovery. So i dont have bootstrap installed

That's not how Bootstrap or Safestrap works. The bootloader will always invoke stock recovery no matter if safestrap or bootstrap are installed. The locked bootloader of the Bionic prevents Stock Recovery from being replaced.
Do other root apps work on your phone? Maybe try grabbing SetDNS, or the free version of Screenshot ER?
I finnally got it to install

Hi bros
I am using Galaxy. TAB P1000GSM, I don't remember exactly the using history, but one day after flash new firmwares my TAB got into the bootloop state until now.
I had tried to flash any kind of firmwares with any solutions which I found on XDA included the Overcom Experience.
With any Gingerbread and newer firmware, my Tab was flashed completely without errors but always got into the bootloop state.
Finally I flash a 2.2 stock firmware, and after flash completed without errors, the Tab boot normally to the setting screen, but the touch screen and all soft button did not work, except the power and volume buttons.
I there anyone got experience with this problem? Pls give me some advices to save me Tab? You will save my life:thumbup:

when in recovery mode use the up/down volume to scroll and use the Home button on the screen to select. Clear the data then clear the cache. Then go to advanced and clear dalvik cache.
Thanks! But my Tab in recovery mode can be used with volume key, but both home key and power key do not work!

No, I mean there are two sets of ROMs/kernel (drivers is in kernel)
one for the P1000 and one for P1000L/N
but if you are sure you are P1000 and already flashing P1000 kernel/ROM, then no, I cannot recommend a P1000L/N kernel to use.
Unless you also have doubt about your P1000.

I used Overcom method already, the Recovery worked well, but the Tab went into the bootloop state.
Assuming that my Tab now has wrong bootloader and it is locked. So is there anyone can tell me how to fix it?

Might be a good idea. Flash overcome kernel, then immediately flash cm9,

If you are rooted and have no recovery just get Rom manager from play store and install recovery from it, the app also has a reboot in recovery option

This is the easiest way.
Procedure for our newbie friend.
1. Download rom manager from play store.
2. Open the apps then click flash ClockworkMod Recovery (need internet connection to flash)
3. After flashing click Reboot into recovery
I suggest that use the old clockworkmod(Version 5.0.2.6) because base from my experienced i always have a hard time rebooting using the touch version. It's like there is a time out, i ended always into bootloop and it takes an hour to reboot.
I flashed safestrap for the razr when it first came out but now I want to use cwm. I don't know how to uninstall it. I get the red ! dead andrord when I try and get in to recovery.. I need some help I have look for the answer by searching but don't see anything. I am still new to this and need a little guidance please...

Uh I removed safe strap on my device but I can't remember how. It might have involved full wipe or something like that. It is probably not the exact way to do it so don't do it if you don't trust me.

Right? You can unlock BL while on safestrap I'm sure, so I don't see why not.
Unless I'm just dumb and SafeStrap isn't installed to the phone's recovery partition...
Just wanted to say thanks for the help. I installed cwm recovery flashed the cm10.2 and the safestrap is no more...
