So a friend of mine updated his p1010 to the official Gingerbread following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410035 but the instructions in the guide says that root comes with CWM in the second post...
I would just like to confirm if this is true since it goes against the procedure I went through with my Optimus One (root first, then install CWM, then install roms). I don't see where root access can be gained in the guide above.
And i think GB cannot be rooted with z4root so how do you root an official p1010 on gingerbread? Could it have been possible to root with z4root, install CWM, then flash a rom already on GB with no other changes?
See if THIS answers any of your questions
Yeah that guide only talks about z4root which is part of my question...
Does z4root even work for Gingerbread? My experience in the past with GB and z4root makes me say no... So what else can I do to root a stock GB Galaxy Tab p1010?
You didn't look far enough. That thread contains ALL the information you need. I wrote it based upon my experience and I am running the GB KPI firmware which is most certainly ROOTED.

Try the fugu root method?
What is that?

Search dev section. Fugu root kernel should be with a KF1 1 click. You will need a kk4 kernel. Alternatively you can just flash corn or samurai kernels they have root in cwm.

First, thanks for your help...I have been working on learning more to do that fugu method and now under stand I have to get that KF1 click flashed first...
Second, I see you are running ICS on your captivate? Is it rooted? Or did you have to root it?
Somewhere I read that custom ROM are already rooted? Does that mean if I put ICS on my captivate it will be rooted?
My phone is the AT&T captivate Galaxy S....
Thanks again, I am trying to decide if I should continue working on rooting my gingerbread 2.3.5 or just put on ICS?

do you even understand what 'root' is?
it sounds like you dont.

No just flash the fugu root kernel THEN use the kernel for the rom you are using (KK4 or w/e)

Roms are rooted. Like I said you could try Samurrai Kernel or Corn kernel (kk4) I think both offer root in CWM. Don't jump to ICS untill you get a hang of everything else.
Thanks again...yes I understand root...

Yes, I do know what root is...we have two captivates I897 that was running 2.1 unrooted. I upgraded both to 2.2 and rooted both phone from what I have learned here on the forums.
I have finally been able to upgrade both our phones to GB 2.3.3 and have both ROOTED via the Fugu method thanks to your post and explanation. Sure do appreciate you time.
We are now looking to get two B&N NC ereaders and use them as Android Tablets...I am looking to buy one 8, 16, or 32 GB bootable micro SD card pre-loaded with Android 2.3X Gingerbread or CyanogenMod
7.1.0.
I am going to check here to see if I can find any. If you know where to get one please let me know.
Thanks

Hello,
My Galaxy Note is unrooted and running a stock GB ROM:
Android version: 2.3.5
Baseband version: N7000UBKK1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-N7000UBKK3-CL702304
Build number: GINGERBREAD.UBKK3
I'd like to root my device and also flash an ICS ROM (ICS StuNNeR). I've been reading a lot of tutorials here, but I'm still confused about which method is best for me.
My current ROM doesn't seem to be "directly rootable". Do I really have to downgrade it first? Is it necessary to root the GB ROM before flashing the ICS ROM?
Should I follow the guide Another Way to Successfully Flash AOSP/AOKP/CM9 ICS Roms from Gingerbread? But do I have to root the GB ROM first?
I'd also like to backup my current ROM, but I haven't found instructions on how to do that.
Thanks a lot,
Tiago

This might help. If not look at the stickies in the android development section and go through all relevant posts there. For flashing a rom from gb to ics I suggest u wait until OTA update and then flash roms cause many notes have been bricked due to the leaked kernel. If u want to still flash an ics rom then follow the guide provided by the dev.and yes u have to root ur phone before u flash a rom.

Hi guys, i am new to all this!
I really want to root my phone but i dont understand any of the step by step guides i have found.
Can anyone simplify things for me and tell wat i have to download to be able to do it?
Easiest is to root a JW4 ROM. Flash it to your phone using Odin and flash the CF-Root 4.4.
Search for the files above.

Well, to each their own preference.
I found overcome method for restocking/ cwm recovery install to be 100% solid.
The ROM itself, maybe I have grown out of it.

You can download the firmwares via sammobile or via Samsung kies

Then root via this method =) (there are known problems with the 6.XXX touch recovery)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394
You now have root!
Then if you want the latest version straight from Samsung (4.1.2) flash this through CWM:

Autoroot with stock recovery and mobile odin works best for me. I'm a noob too. Have flashed perseus kernal and pandoriams latest 4.1.2 and works great
