I did a search and was unable to find information on flashing stock Gingerbread 2.3.4 for the Verizon Galaxy Tab 7 (SCH-I800). Is this possible, and with root?
I would love to get a more stable build onto this machine. It crashes alot. also something more responsive would be great too Now that its out for the Sprint Vs. Does that mean its possible to get it on ours?
There hasn't been an official release of Gingerbread for the Samsung Galaxy Tab SCI-I800 (Verizon model). I'm getting very, very impatient and annoyed by it too, especially not that the Sprint model (VERY similar to ours) has already gotten that upgrade and we're still waiting without any details about when to expect it to come to us. VERY annoyed.
Flash the Sprint version that's rooted on here.
Hell, how can one root first?
I have tried NUMEROUS methods at rooting my Galaxy Tab, just to try and get the bloatware off of my device in hopes at making it work smoother, but that didn't work. Anyone, ANYONE, know a fool proof method at rooting the VZW Galaxy Tab 7? z4root, gingerbreak, etc, all didn't work. Ended up having to reset my device just to correct most major issues that the failed root attempts created.

Just rerooted mine (my original z4root stopped working after the last update) and after combing through who knows how many posts and methods, I got it to work with version 1.7 of superoneclick. For some reason 1.9 would get stuck in the middle, but 1.7 had no problem. Good luck.
Can we really just flash the Sprint version? That won't break anything?
Thanks!
It will not connect to 3G but it works fine on wifi. I have been running it for 3 weeks.
Awesome... I don't use 3G anyhow. Thanks a bunch!
I got my tab finally rooted. Now need to have fun!

There's also a leaked VZW stock rooted 2.3.4 in the dev section...
That stock vzw rom... Is it stable?
Sent from my rooted SCH-I800 Galaxy Tab
Why would a stock rom not be stable? Besides the thread is several pages long with folks posting their experiences, me included.
It is very stable, with all the bloat and everything. Suggest BTL Confidence & Paranoia v01 if you dont want any of the bloat. Stable with some minor bugs.
yes the BTL confidence and paranoia is a great rom, I have the sch-i800 verizon model too.
looks like i missed the boat on that one.

Use SuperOneClick.
Make sure you have USB debugging on.
Super no click for GB
Unfortunatly I have tried super 1 click 2.3.3 (with debug on and sd card out) and it dosen't work on the I800 2.3.5
I am going to try cubed 3.
all this just so i can use a six axis controller....

HOW!!!!!!?????????
Hello, I just got a Rooted Verizon Galaxy Tab and I don't know how to do custom roms on it. I can't even find any custom roms for it as it seems there are only GSM devs currently. It is currently running a Custom Rom and I did a Factory reset and the play store wasn't on it. I downloaded and installed the APK and it force closes. I don't know what i'm doing. I'm a pro with the Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V, I'm learning about the HTC Sensation, I'm not a total noob, but I don't know what to do with this tablet and I don't want to do anything to make it worse without some tips.
Thanks for your help.
Just moved from a trusty moto atrix to the Samsung galaxy s3 mini, this forum seems a little quieter than the atrix one primarily, I'm guessing because of the age of the device.
I'm running pre rooted ALL2 flashed using Odin. Just can't live without root! Super thank full for the peeps that worked that out.
I'd like to check that I'm on the right page so can anyone comfirm or deny the following statements:
- Now I'm running a pre rooted FW will I still receive OTA?
- I will loose root when installing OTA if available?
- is there anything that you think I should know?
Thanks guys

you can upgrade you phone to 2.3.6 (without Root), if you want to use JB version you need to root your phone,
Make sure you've backed up what you need!
you can follow this guard http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/ (Upgrade to 2.3.6)

hello fellow samsungers;
hope you are enjoying the festivus.
I recently purchased an S2 9.7. This thing is hot, but I digress.
I am coming from a rooted Nexus 7 running CM13.
I know the doose and donts, however, I still these few questions:
1) other than the obvious warranty loss, will Galaxy apps not run outside of Touchwiz?
2) do I need this knox feature? Can I get rid of it? I'm fine with stock authentication and encruptions services.
3) can a restore a samsung app on am android that is not running Touchwiz?
4) I can use the same chainfire su and busybox root apps on a rooted galaxy.
thanks!
1,2,3 are wrong, You can't do that. 4 is ok but at this stage there is not much to do due to the lack of development.

1. You can not use Samsung apps without Touchwiz.
2. If you are rooted you can and should freeze or delete all of the Knox apps.
3. See answer for #1
4. If you root using the methods on this S2 forum you will have Chainfire's SuperSU. Any root apps will work.
