a root/rom/kernal section for the galaxy tab. can someone point me in the right direction? i have the tmobile galaxy tab (because of the 250 price tag), but have a rooted samsung fascinate (didn't want to add yet another device to my big red account...lol). also, looking for kies for tmo.

thanks

Not sure about TMobile but I would check the XDA Developers site. I'll look around.... if I find anything I'll let you know.

Android Forums & Windows Phone Discussion @ xda-developers

Heres the link for the Galaxy Tab:Samsung Galaxy Tab - xda-developers

I've been there. But I appreciate you taking the time to look that up. Is there a one click root method? I was looking for Z4root but it doesn't seem to be on the market anymore.

You can find the download for Z4root here:http://forum.androidcentral.com/mot...ooting-backing-up-installing-custom-roms.html

Its the same installation on the Tab as on a phone.

Ok, I have found the root guide at xda. It says to connect to kies once then gives a link to kies but I have no idea which version to get for the tmobile tab.

SAMSUNG

ok, i figured out how to get z4root to work....so i'm rooted, installed rom manager and used rom manager to install CWM. now, i'm interested in flashing Roto JMI Pre-Rooted Firmware v2 with odin. just wondering if i should hold off a couple of weeks for honeycomb?

You could always flash back if you don't feel like waiting. I'm waiting because i have Sprint and there's nothing I can do. If I did have the option I would wait.... but I'm not in a rush...I'm happy with my Tab the way it is for now. I usually give new devices a few weeks before I start messing with stuff. I only rooted mine the first day so I could bypass the activation screen.

i was going to get the sprint tab, but they don't keep them in stock at the sprint store so i walked next door to Tmo and got theirs...i'm to impatient, i guess.


i still can't figure out which version of kies to get from the samsung site, from my post above. i have looked through my tab and i don't see numbers like those anywhere on my device.
