Hello XDA!
As the name of this thread implies this is the last resort to rooting my GT-p1010 1st gen Galaxy Tab. It is currently running some version of android 2.3.6. I say some version because a while back my father was successful at achieving root access, then something went wrong. Eventually he got some random ROM on it that has the KERNEL VERSION 2.6.35.7-CL1131.15SE.INFRA@SEP-39#1 I have no experience with dealing with kernels so I would not know if it is stock or not. I have hwo ever rooted and install and custom recovery and ROM on my kindle fire, so I do have experience with this type of thing.Let me get to the point:
I have tried the newest version of Odin and this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1386643. I keep getting "Can't open the serial(COM) port" I also am positive that I have all of the correct drivers install for the use of Odin.
I have also tried a manual root and used both GingerBreak and psneuter with no avail.
I have tried installing Z4root and the GingerBreak.apk file as well.
I have tried each method under numerous circumstances and variables!I have also done some extensive homework on each of the failed attempt I have.
I probably should not be posting this thread here, but I want it to get as much attention as possible. I have been working on and off this for 3 weeks and have decided that it is time to come here. ANY REPLY IS MUCH APPRECIATED!
