rooting galaxy tab 10.1v (working)

hi, this is how i managed to get root working on my tab, everything went fine for me till it came to booting into recovery then nothing use to happen so i combined two separate guides to get it working. thanks (bcmobile and 411tecknology)
the command in "(getting root 5) )" worked for me as i was getting stuck with "fastboot flash recovery skitzandroid-recovery.img"
i unlocked the bootloader by firmware upgrade the the following
for all those people like me with no experience in dos commands or linux, hope this works for you​
PREPARE:
1) With your Tab in fastboot mode (step 1 of “GETTING ROOT” below), make sure you have a working fastboot implementation:
working dir\\fastboot devices
If all is well, you should see your device serial number. If there is a problem, you won’t get any response.
2) Downlad the two files attached to this thread
3) create a folder in drive c naming it "root"
This will be referred to as the working directory throughout the rest of this guide
4) Copy skitzandroid-10-1v-root.zip to your working directory (DO NOT UNZIP!) c: root
5) Extract the skitzandroid-recovery.img file from skitzandroid-stock-recovery.zip to your working folder. Your working folder( c: root) should now have 1 IMG file and one ZIP file.
6) copy fastboot files to the the folder that you are going to use as working dir ( c:root)
7) Copy the skitzandroid-10-1v-root.zip file to the root of your sdcard. You can eithe drag/drop, or run:
working dir or c:\root>adb push skitzandroid-10-1v-root.zip /sdcard
GETTING ROOT:
1) Power off your Tab and power it back on, while holding the VOLUME DOWN button.
2) When the DOWNLOAD / FASTBOOT icons appear, press VOLUME DOWN again to select FASTBOOT icon (the one with the USB logo) and press VOLUME UP to confirm selection.
3) Confirm you are now in fastboot mode and do a:
fastboot devices
If all is well, you should see your device serial number.
4) Open a terminal / CMD prompt and CD to your working folder
keep doing cd.. until you get to "c:>" then
cd/root
5) Run the following command:
c:\root> fastboot boot skitzandroid-recovery.img
..and wait. It might not look like anything is happening but it is.
6) You should now have a recovery menu. Use the volume rocker (up/down navigates menu options)
to select “Install zip from SDCARD” (or something like that)
7) Navigate to the root of your internal storage (/sdcard), select the skitzandroid-10-1v-root.zip file and press (tap!) the POWER button to confirm selection.
Once complete, use the Volume rocker to select “REBOOT” from the menu and press (tap!!!) the POWER button to confirm selection.
9) YOUR’RE DONE. Press the thanks button on this thread to continue
TESTING:
Check your apps menu to confirm the existence of SuperUser app.

whats wrong with this?

Nothing!
I used it on UNLOCKED 10.1v (not from Vodafone) and had no data loss!
Great, Thanks

I do not understand: 3) Confirm you are now in fastboot mode and do a:
fastboot devices
If all is well, you should see your device serial number.
Where do I enter this data?
I mean - fastboot deviсes

once you start your device in fastboot mode and connect it with the computer to make sure your device is recognized by the computer you open command prompt take it to your working dir.. (ie. c:>root) in our case type fastboot devices and hit enter, if your computer recognized your device you will the serial number under it.

im sorry> can you help me?
When i write in the command line "fastboot.exe devices" nothing happens....

assuming you have installed sdk if not please do so, then staying in sdk go to
(C:\android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools ) by clicking your mouse in desktop
(not cmd prompt). above eg.. is how i installed sdk on my desktop yours may be different, now in platform-tools you will see two files called fastboot copy them both to to your folder called ..root.. and you are set to go.
bottom line is if you want to start fastboot from any folder in cmd you have to have these two files in the folder.
also if you know that your device is detected by your computer dont worry about step 3. all it does is tell you that your device is connected.

I have all turned out, the problem was the drivers. I copied the driver from pdanet and it worked!

and when i write "fastboot boot ......etc......" it says <waiting for the device>
please help

You need the drivers installed for fastboot, have you installed them? Please have a look at the [Guide] Unlock your bootloader thread. it contains all the details to get fastboot working.

thank you...finally did it
another noob question...how do i enter in cwm for installing another ROM ???

The easiest way if you are rooted is to install rom manager from the market. It has an option to reboot to recovery if you have CWM installed. It also allows you to update to the latest CWM recovery if there is one.

i've tried putting the TB Galaxy 1.0.9: Honeycomb 3.1 + TouchWiz UX and i made a mistake... in cwm i've uploaded the zip file only with the update and not the rom itself.since then the tab won't start...it stop's in the beggining at the "samsung galaxy tab 10.1v"...any ideea...what can i do ?

Download latest rom and instructions from samfirmware.com using odin Get ur tab into fastboot mode with 3 button recovery and start from scratch.
It should work out

Do the following. If you have not yet odin.
Download the full rom.
Follow instructions in how to get into fasboot in sticky thread.
Once in fastboot you can load recovery via it, to do that download the recovery from droidbasement.com/blog, search on pershoot's website for recovery 4.0.4 if i remember correctly then type
fastboot boot recovery.img
where recovery.img is the name of the file you downloaded from droidbasement.com
Recovery will then load give it a minute or so.
Once loaded you can push the downloaded full rom via adb. That is part of the android sdk.
Like this: adb push romfile.zip /data/media/ (this will take a few minutes)
Then in cwm instal rom.
I hope it helps. Btw, remember you need to flash the wipe script of the rom before you install the rom if you are comming from stock.

10x everybody it worked!!!!!!!!

Still me, posting in yet another thread. Still can't get the proper drivers. Pda method is not working. Which version of PDanet should I use ? The latest ? This is ****ing irritating...
I'm used to have to struggle to get things work at the beginning, but with my Magic and Hd2 it was a matter of hours...not weeks ! I'm sure it's something stupid but everybody deserted these guides topics...
I'm actually considering posting in the Dev section just to get attention...
Also, pershoot blog's advices are a joke : with no tags, a not working search field, no categories, try to find an info ! Knowing that the word "Recovery" will pop about 3 times per subject, I'm good to spend the week-end searching...

Hello,
I have been successful with rooting on win7. With win xp - after a few day struggling - fastboot did not give a go. Hope this helps

I just can't get the "Adb Original" signature from Pdanet. I always get standard Adb. I add the galaxy tab lines in the .inf file but still...
Do you guys edit the inf file with Wordpad or another tool ?

I thought this process caused problems with 4G not working and other various problems mentioned in the firmware thread?????

Not sure but maybe after doing this and obtaining root you can flash over to decrap rom or revolt rom and maybe that would fix the issues? Just a thought

When I downgraded, the data stayed intact. However, do a backup anyways.

I believe the users that have a failed downgrade had a problem with the .TOT file being downloaded properly and they probably had the phone in CDMA mode only when the phone should be in LTE/CDMA mode.
But if anything, they may have unplugged the phone before the program finished because the phone looks like it's done being flashed but the flash program says it's 80-90% complete.
Make sure you DO NOT unplug the phone until the flash program say it's safe to do so.

A note to all. If you have the drivers installed form earlier. UNINSTALL THEM!
Then restart. Install Verizon's drivers when you first plug your phone in while in 'Mass Storage' and THEN install those drivers. I had some problems getting it to work but that fixed it a bunch. Also, if you are getting a 0x800 error while trying to install the DLL, open CMD with Admin privileges and then 'regsvr32.exe "C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Models\VS290.dll" and it should install correctly.' I would suggest rebooting after this then running the tool.

You can try to update the drivers.
Reboot.
Turn on LGNPST.
Plug the phone to a DIFFERENT USB port.
Make sure USB Debugging is switched on on the phone.
Wait for the phone to install.
Voila.
I think LGNPST may have a refresh problem but that is what repaired the issue for me.

This Method works and is the same way I recovered my last Revo. Not sure what may have caused the issues for that phone. Using this method on the new replacement has been successful and still no problems with the phone. Did a S1C and rooted successfully and installed CWM using ADB without a hitch. Then came decrap 1.1 Life is great.

Having problems installing "VS910.dll" file. I keep getting an error. Tried Crax0r's suggestion and no dice.

You have to unzip the directory. Once that is done then the option will appear. If you still need help tonight then you might find me on irc. Im sure i can help you there. Message me if you dont figure it out.

Yeah I had download Bitzipper Trial to unzip....but when I right click the vs910.dll file I get this error "The module"C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Models\VS910.dll" was loaded but the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80020009"
Edit: Sorry, I get the error when I right click and get an option to register....not Install...as the instructions says.

Flashing 6.0.1 with Encryption Enabled?

Hey guys!
FIRST - A HUGE thanks to everybody that has done the legwork and research finding the MM files and also those that have uploaded them for download!
SECOND - I have the 925A that I've been running on Cricket. Since Cricket does not officially support the Edge, I've been having to periodically flash the past updates or I've used Odin. Because I am running a Cricket SIM, I cannot do OTA updates.
However, I just recently enabled encryption on my device. Will this affect me trying to do further updates by flashing? Do I need to disable encryption? (I thought I read in the past that this is not possible.) I obviously don't want to brick my phone.
Also, I am currently on OI2 and I've seen that it seems PD6 needs to update from OJ9. All of the posts I've seen say to OTA to OJ9 before flashing. Since I can't OTA I would have to flash OJ9 first. I can't find the file for OJ9 to download. Any help finding it would be appreciated.
Listen, I again want to say thanks to everybody who contributes here. I have been a lurker here for quite some time since I first bought my Nexus 5 and the amount I have learned has been invaluable. I wish I knew enough to contribute in some way. Just know that everybody's work does not go unappreciated!
EDIT - I realize now this probably should have been posted in Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting. Can a Mod move this if it is necessary?

Instructions on how to get 6.01 on G925A
1. YOU MUST HAVE OJ9 update on your phone.
2. Check "about devices" under baseband version.
3. Download all files from this link
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B04l-XMi07VKdkY0ZExzeEVHcFk
4. Open adb fastboot (MAKE SURE YOUR PHONE IS CONNECTED TO YOUR PC)
5. Put this file (SS-G925AUCU3BOJ9-to-U3CPD6-UP) in your main PC directory C:\ and change the name
SS-G925AUCU3BOJ9-to-U3CPD6-UP to OTA and place a copy of OTA in your phone main directory.
6. Shutdown phone.
7. Restart phone by holding down the POWER, HOME, and UP button at the same time. DONT release until you get an UPDATE LOGO on your phone.
8. Go to your computer in the adb fastboot and type adb devices
9. Then type adb sideload DO NOT HIT ENTER YET!!
10. Go to your main directory on your computer where you put the OTA file and drag it on the
adb fastboot after adb sideload and hit ENTER.
11. This process will take 1hr so be patient and let the phone reboot.
12. Once the phone reboot, you will have 6.01!!!!!

when you downloaded the files, one of them was the SS-G925AUCU3BOJ9-to-U3CPD6-UP. Rename this file to OTA and put OTA file on your computer directory C:\ (so the adb fastboot application can find it).

He can just drag it from the download location without renaming. It works.

Thank you very much, works wonders on my S6 EDGE G925 AT & T
Everything went perfect me.
Thank you.

Thanks, but unfortunately I am on OJ7, and I tried to update OTA telling me I am up to date, I don't know how to use odin and I need to instal marshmallow im my device. Any help ?

My baseband version is G925AUCU1AOCE so I dont have OJ9. Can you please tell me how I can update to OJ9 first?
When I check for update, it says my device has the latest firmware (which is obviously wrong).

How To Guide [OneUI 4.0 Beta 1 & 2](EXYNOS) Update.zip for S21 / Plus / Ultra - Download OTA Link

So, now that we have OneUI 4.0 Beta 1 rolling out to countries (ofc only 7), it has come so far in Germany & Korea (as far as I know). So the rest of the world wants an update.zip link, so don't be selfish and please, if you have one, capture the .bin file and share it in this thread.
How to capture:
I:
Install HTTP Canary app: https://m.apkpure.com/httpcanary-—-http-sniffer-capture-analysis/com.guoshi.httpcanary
1. Load canary
2. Start the update download but don't pause it.
3. Go back to canary and start that and it will grab the link.
(easiest method, by AndrzejDwo)
II:
Follow this: https://www.androidjungles.com/how-to-capture-ota-update-url-for-android/
If someone uploads it to the internet, you'll find the link/s in the second post in this thread.
[UPDATE] New link for the S21 Ultra (Exynos) - down on the second
[UPDATE2] You can watch a tutorial that I did back when OneUI 3.0 Beta was a thing on my S10 (the process is similar): YouTube
* This thread was made in order to centralise the update conversation / OTA links.

This is where I'll put the OTA /update.zip/ links for the S21 / S21P / S21U:
How To:
Rename [name].bin to [name].zip and paste it into the adb folder
Enable USB Debugging from the Developer Options
Reboot your phone
./adb start-server
Trust the computer
./adb reboot recovery
With vol-up and vol-down go to ADB Update and press the Side/Power button
./adb sideload update.zip
!!! Remove ./ if you're using Windows
!!! Obviously Google Pay and (possibly) other banking apps don't work

If we side load the update via ADB can we still register in the UK on Samsung members and receive future beta OTA or not?

Well, I don't know, I don't have any experience with that, since I live in an unsupported region.

For s21 ultra exynos

Sideloading through recovery: Using Android Debug Bridge (ADB)​
Make sure you have the latest version of ADB installed.
Rename the downloaded .bin package to update.zip.
Now reboot to the recovery mode. Inside the stock recovery environment, you can scroll down using the volume buttons and select an entry using the Power button.
Select apply update from ADB and connect the phone to the PC using a working USB cable.
In the Command Prompt/Terminal window, run the following command:adb devices
Wait to see that the daemon has started and that your device is found. Then run the following command:adb sideload PATH_TO_update.zip

Change the CSC, I have DBT and I don't want to lose it.

You can just put the zip file in the same folder as the ADB then just do sideload update.zip

So, I added a how-to video (of OneUI 3.0 Beta on my S10 from "back-in-the-day") as well as the OTA link for the S21U. Don't forget to change .bin to .zip

Thank you for creating this thread @KokosTech !
I have one suggestion. Write which build can upgrade to which build. For example, like here.
I will be making a video guide on how to install via ADB as soon as possible and if I have your permission may I post it here?

Thank you for this. I've done everything right I can think of but can't get it to install. Someone suggested renaming the file on pc but doesn't work. I get update.zip.zip

Do "cd C:\adb" and the "adb sideload update.zip"
Also, run CMD as admin if still doesn't work.

SD-card method ?

How To Guide Install One UI 5.0 (Android 13) beta on unsupported countries

Hello everyone!
One UI 5.0 beta is out, so I have put together this guide on installing it on your Galaxy device. I will show you how to sideload the beta even though the beta programme may not be available in your country or may be full.
❕️ If your device has an SD Card slot, check out the SD Card Method.
NOTE: When you sideload the beta, you will not receive OTA updates automatically. You must install the stable One UI 5.0 when it's released (or downgrade back to One UI 4.1) via Odin.

Exynos or Snapdragon?
I have not been able to find the S21+ Snapdragon variant yet. Either nobody is trying to catch the update file or it's not yet out for it.
As for Exynos, it's in the thread I've linked.

I just checked.
Unfortunately there's no update file for SM-G9980 online yet. It either hasn't been released or no one who got the update is capturing & sharing it.

Hey guys,
I'm trying to sideload via adb on G996B, from AUIE > ZUJ1 on non-supported beta country.
Everything goes fine until 47% on terminal, when starts verifying partitions:
...
Verify partitions...
Verified system image...
Verified vendor image...
Verified product image...
Verified odm image...
Unable to use metadata to correct errors
E2004: prism partition fails to recover
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (status 1)
Install from ADB completed with status 503
Installation aborted
Then, I can only reboot system back to One UI 3.1.
Someone managed to install after this error?

I believe the common mistake is people updating from the October security patch. I was also getting an error at 47% until i downgrade to the September update before sideloading. Try that and remember to always backup your device.

Oh you're using an s21+? I do not think anyone has even captured the one ui 4 image for your device yet, i guess you'd just have to take your time and wait.

Then it should work, maybe you'd need to back up, factor reset, and then sideload if you want it that bad. But I'm not sure about it because I really don't see much about the s21+ on here. I was having that 47% error on my s21. Reset with "AUHD" (s21 exynos) and then the sideload worked after.

I'm trying to install the update following all the steps, but it won't work. Using powershell I type in adb devices and it recogizes the command. have put the update.zip in platform tools folder, I go to recovery and type in again adb devices and it says that the device is connected, then I type in adb sideload update.zip, and get this message "adb: failed to stat file update.zip. No such file or directory. Can someone help me get this setup, don't know what I'm doing wrong.
