Samsung Galaxy Tab How to Root Guide

4:28 AM
Here'a are some steps and procedures on How to Root The Samsung Galaxy Tab.

Rooting the Tab opens up a world of possibilities that would otherwise be out of reach. Root access gives you complete control of the system, which means you can do much more with the device than Samsung and your carrier probably want you to do. It lets you install awesome root-only apps, uninstall apps that can't normally be removed, do complete backups (Nandroid), flash custom ROMs, apply themes, change boot animations, and more.. 

Rooting the Galaxy Tab Using Z4root:

There's more than one way to root the Galaxy Tab, but the easiest method is to use a one-click root app called z4root. One-click root apps aren't new (Universal Androot, for example, has been around for months), but z4root is what I used to root my Tab so it's what I'm recommending.

Here's how to use it to root the Galaxy Tab:

1. Download z4root from Android Market (direct link) and install it.




Z4root-qr

2. Enable USB debugging on your Tab by pressing the Menu button then tapping Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging.




3. Open z4root and press the "Root" button.





4. Don't panic when the Tab restarts. It's supposed to do that.

When it's fully booted, you won't get any kind of confirmation of your success. Everything will look exactly the same. Open z4root again, though, and you'll see this:


Rooting the Galaxy Tab Using Super One Click:

Requirements:
  • Download KIES Software downloaded from here
  • Download SuperOneclick from here

Procedure:
  • Connect Galaxy Tab to the computer and sync with KIES once, with debugging mode disabled
  • Disconnect from Computer
  • Enable debugging mode (Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging)
  • Connect again to PC but click on home button so that you do not connect to KIES this time
  • Launch the SuperOneClick.exe program which you have downloaded above
  • Click on root and wait for some time
  • That’s it your tab has root access now!
Have fun!
