Hi guys
I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to flashing a rom such as ICS or any latest rom that is available for my Galaxy Tab so i really need help with this to avoid problems. First how do i know whether my galaxy tab is GSM or CMDA ? i checked my WIFI settings and it says GSM/WCMDA what does these means ? I can use 3G if you needed to know.
And what tools and applications do i need ? to flash a rom such as ICS or any latest stable rom. i just factory reset my Galaxy Tab GT P1000 already as it's causing problems for me such as freezing everyday and restart by itself.
Currently my Galaxy Tab is on 2.3.3 GingerBread Android. The stock version of it was Froyo i guess that is 2.2 right ? and yeah i updated my tab from Kies few months ago to gingerbread of course. And yes i already rooted my Galaxy Tab few months ago but i just factory reset it today i guess the root is gone now ?
What are the latest and stable ICS/JB version for my Galaxy Tab GT P1000 ? please do guide me to successfully installing them.
hope someone is able to help me with this as i am going to flash it today.
thank you very much
Edit is highlighted by blue font. Mistake highlighted by red font.
I was just about to write a guide for my niece, here goes: -
Please read other guides to be more understanding of flashing. Below is a quick step only. Just in case the good long guides are too long and too complex. Hopefully with a short guide + long guide, it's easier and cover both sides / requirements. Sorry that it was too short for dc2mx, hope he recovers well.
pre-requisite. --->>> magic action.
Hold power button 8 seconds and it will FULLY SHUTDOWN. Don't let it be ON whole night. Battery does not charge during DOWNLOAD mode and not charge in RECOVERY mode. That's why I write in step 16 about this magic 8 seconds fully shutdown.
Hold power button 4 seconds and it boots up.
Hold power button 12 seconds will shutdown then boots. Not adviced. Because it becomes boot-loop.
OK, may some filenames are wrong, but they carry the same meaning. Hence please forgive my short-coming or spelling mistake or naming error.
make sure battery is 100% charged up.
no need root, hence skip rooting step.
download this file >>>GB-Stock-Safe-v5<<< link is provided another time by http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981 - thanks thanks thanks to priyana priyana priyana.
make sure to install USB driver first, then plug in TAB to PC, wait few minutes to let it recognize, install and stable_lise <<<stabilize>>>. Takes time. No need to copy anything into it. This is just to ensure that the drivers were installed properly and that it successfully recognized the device so that FLASHING can be carried out.
reboot holding VOL_DOWN to go into DOWNLOAD MODE. You should see the word DOWNLOAD with a big triangle symbol.
direct use Odin software to flash the >>>GB-Stock-Safe-v5<<< OVERCOME RE-STOCK version 5 (the file is TAR format), download link above. See more details somewhere else. Sorry for being lazy uncle.
make sure to select a file named <<<<mr.pit>>>> for the pit section, MUST.
select the <<<<rom file.TAR>>>> format for PDA <<<I wrote WRONG previously into phone section|>>>, MUST. Very terribly sorry to dc2mx and anyone else affected.
select <<<<modem.bin>>>> for phone section else can't call, but not need now, later will have, can skip. Unless you wanna stick to 2.3.3
tick 3 items, A = re-partition, B = auto-reboot, C = F.reset.time. MUST.
click FLASH, wait 2.5 minutes, finished, auto reboot. You should see the USB connect YELLOW highlight successful before able to click FLASH.
then reboot again into Download mode and Odin again to flash the KERNEL only <<<002001-Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar>>> because it contains most importantly CWM (clock work mod), which is a TAB_self_rom_flashing. (newbie term).
Then download a CM9 or CM10 or whatever you want. as for me, as of writing I'm using alroger's 8th November version. Thanks to alroger, humeros, cdesai, and so many more.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869477 Put into TAB's internal sdcard. Fastest flash. My external SD is cheap type, hence slow.
Flash it via reboot holding VOL_UP to go into RECOVERY mode. Select the file/rom that you chosen.
You'll see flash progress go to 10% then reboot.
Then reboot loop non stop. Hold power button for 8 seconds for it to shutdown fully.
Why? because flashing the first 10% puts in a new kernel with new MTD partition and everything behinds it can't recognize it, can't find it hence boot loop.
Enter RECOVERY again, reboot holding VOL_UP. If failed again. Don't worry, keep trying, I had to try 10 times. My first manual reboot went into CWM successfully but I didn't understand and realize, hence did not flash the file again. Then reboot normally, obviously it just boot-loops. Tried to go into CWM the 3rd time but not succesful, it just boot-loops. try so many times, with full shutdown and wait many minutes in between. I think around 10 times or more later went into CWM finally. God bless.
Reboot again into RECOVERY and flash one more time and WIN, DONE.
finished.

Hi thank you for providing with this guide but it doesn't answer any of my questions i am asking but anyway, i am confused with step 4 i have already downloaded GB Stock Safe V5 from the thread you linked. what do you mean by install and Stable_lise ? i have my USB Cable connected to my Galaxy Tab and it shows as Removable storage. What do i need to copy in it ?
If it's possible can you provide much more detailed and clearer instructions ? which are definitely newbie proof.
EDIT: Nevermind i got what you're talking about but i did those 11 steps then now Odin says FAIL on the application about something unable to write partion or something like that. now my Tab is frozen on Do not turn off target screen, Did my Tab just got bricked ? how do i restart it ?

thanks for this, it helps alot
can you provide links to the files?
I see there is a link for the >>>GB-Stock-Safe-v5<<< but I don't see links for
OVERCOME RE-STOCK version 5, the kernel is there but no OVERCOME RE-STOCK version 5..
thank you again
oh, and I suppose that "stable_lise" refers to stabilize?
See my signature for overcome new links.
(Actually same as his link)
It is GB stock safe v5, should no be called Overcome version 5.

So i was unable to turn it off. it was out of battery today, thought it might turn on if i charge it back. but i was both right and wrong it does boots up but now it gives me a Phone and a yellow /!\ Computer icons now, Anyone knows what is happening ?

Hi there. The phone-exclamation-pc thing is another download mode.
At least you still have your bootloader.
Just make sure in the mean time you powered it off and charge it for over 4hrs. You don't want the power to run out.
In the download mode, is Odin detecting the tab? if so, you should still have very good chance to revive it.
Now, question:
- did you use Odin v1.7 included in the GB-stock-safe-v5 package or using other? Remember it is important to use the correct Odin version.
There should be little reason for the flash to fail on repartition if you follow the guide. If you haven't got it, see my signature, and go there to get the PDF guide and jump to page 7.
If you have already followed exactly, then there is a chance you have a damaged internal NAND chip. There are ways to go around that, but lets not go there first.

Yes, i already connected my tab to power charger now. Of course i used Odin v1.7 that is included in GB-stock-safe-v5 package. but during Odin process i waited about 5mins then i went to see how is it going, then there's a FAIL in red above the first box. and my Tab is stuck a Do not turn off target mode.
I only did those instructions cx5 provided. So now i am stuck with Phone /!\ Computer icons screen. What am i going to do next ? And do you mean this guide ? https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7k...EyNS00Yzg5LWE0MTktYmYyMjA1MThmYzQz/edit?pli=1 if yes, i haven't read it yet.
This is what i did yesterday i downloaded GB-Stock-Safe-v5, Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar, and CM10 P1000, md5sum: 157da0dc187216fa924da45182e1307e
What are the differences between P1000L and P1000N ? which CM10 files are right for my tab ?
Are these files that i am going to need ? please do refresh this thread every 5 mins or so. since i need help i will be here too. thank you
UPDATE: OK i just connected my Tab to power charger. but when i unplugged it. it turns off. i guess i need to leave it there for 4 hours to charge it ? i can't check whether Odin are able to detect my tab since i unplugged it and it turns off.
UPDATE2 Hmm my tab is blinking, it was on Phone /!\ Computer Icons screen. but now it's blinking, i meant it went to Phone /!\ Computer Icons screen then back to black screen every 10 seconds. is this normal ?
yes, try charge for more than 4hrs and hope the power goes in.
cx5 instruction seems correct, but it is best to look at page 7 of the guide for 100% accurate placement of the files.
the P1000L/N are Latin American tab that has different touch screen driver.

Hmm ok i think i know what went wrong during Odin process. cx5 said select the rom file.TAR for phone section, MUST. but i just read this guide https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7k...EyNS00Yzg5LWE0MTktYmYyMjA1MThmYzQz/edit?pli=1 and it says click PDA and select GB_Stock_Safe_V5,tar and then click Phone.
i didn't click PDA as cx5 instructions didn't mention it. and that's why i am getting FAIL on Odin ?
Anyway, i guess i leave it to charge for 5 hours. then Test whether Odin is able to detect my TAB or not. see you in 5 hours later Priyana. hopefully you're online as i am not sure what to do next after Odin is able to detect my tab.
after charging, boot to download mode again, you may get that same screen like before.
In your PC prepare the Odin exactly like the page 7 of PDF.
Connect the tab to the PC and if you see the tab detected, just flash away, hopefully no error, and it should reboot itself if I am not mistaken, and you get stock GB rom.
Then just continue with the guide, to flash Overcome Kernel 4.0 tar.
After that you will have a CWM recovery, ready to flash CM10

OK so i am currently charging my Tab and it's blinking from Phone /!\ Computer screen to black screen every 10sec above. Does this screen disappear after fully charging it ? it seems that i am stuck at this screen now. but i can't turn it off and go to the previous hold Volume down and hold power button Do not turn off Target download mode.
Or Does Odin is able to detect my Tab on this Phone /!\ Computer screen too ? since you said it's another download mode please do correct me if i am wrong
yes Odin should detect it at this screen too.
If it doesn't, it will be very hard to fix.
I am surprised that you can't turn it off. Doesn't sounds so good, as it may deplete the batt completely.
Did you try to press the power button for a few seconds (5-10 seconds) to force it off completely?

Yeah my Tab was turn on for a whole yesterday. since i can't turn it off as it froze at Do Not Turn Off Target download mode. and today i saw the screen was off. then i went to turn it on but nothing i guess the battery is depleted. so i went to charge it and tried turning it on. it does boots up but now showing me this "Phone yellow /!\ Computer screen.
Okay, i just tested trying to shutting it down by holding Power button for 10seconds. but it seems that i can't turn it off. but the Tab itself is a little hot.
I have another question to ask, now i am stuck in this screen, and i have no idea it's charging or not. is this normal ? or usually it shows it's battery charging notification ?
UPDATE: It seems that my Tab is now turn off? it's not showing me the "Phone yellow /!\ Computer screen" now. it looks like it's turn off. nothing there just black
just leave it like this with the charger for maybe 8hr, since it has completely depleted before.
Battery charging animation I heard resides in the kernel.
So if the tab is flashed incorrectly, the battery animation will not be there.
It should still be charging (hopefully). The only way to be sure is to leave it charging for really long.

Ugh.. i know that it's just 5 hours+ But i was trying to turn on my tab to test whether Odin can detect my tab. but it seems that it won't power on. i guess it's dead ?
Damn i should have waited for your reply first priyana before doing anything. i just didn't do a important step which is "click PDA and select GB_Stock_Safe_V5,tar and then click Phone" instead of "select the rom file.TAR for phone section, MUST" which i thought click phone and select the tar. but it wasn't my fault as someone here posted the instructions that is misleading and missing the important step. Oh well....thanks for nothing,
Anyway, priyana, i really appreciate you are trying to help me. thank you very much buddy
Don't give up. Just continue charging. Many have experienced worst. I don't believe yours is bricked.

Erm.. i can't even turn it on so i guessing it's dead. i don't think i am able to bring it back alive though
Custom ROM: FXP312
I have zero percent battery.
when i plug in the charger, red led shows up for 5 minutes.
afterwards, the phone boots up comes to home screen and shuts down because of low battery(0%).
this keeps on repeating.
how to fix this?
cant connect to flash tool.

so which method worked for you?

Yes that lack of off line charging for some custom ROMS almost made me send my phone in to repair. This was made worse by the fact that the build of CM I was on didn't allow you to boot into recovery (you could only reboot into recovery)
What I did.
Take the back cover of and have a pen ready so that you can use the hard power off function.
Prep your computer with flashtool open, drivers installed etc. – so that you can flash doom kernel as quickly as possible (you may only have 20 or so seconds).
1. Charge your dead phone, but AS SOON as begins to power up use your pen to power it down until it vibrates three times,
2. At this point you’ll hopefully have enough charge to enter fastboot mode, if not repeat stage 1. you may have to repeat stage 1. three or four times. If yes, flash doom kernel – do it quickly.
3. Go back to stage 1. But instead of powering off, see if you can boot in to CWM recovery, because the SP can be charged in CWM – if you can get into CWM all is good.
thanks both of you !
now im able to get into cwm but theres no led light indicating its charging.
hope its charging.
ill update you in 20 minutes
If you can get into CWM see if you can flash the offline charging fix appropriate to the ROM you're using (just to be sure).
so i got my battery up again!
but i have another question now.
after i installed doomlord kernel i had to reinstall fxp323.
else it was bootlooping.
now the doomlord kernel is gone.
how do i keep both?
Doom lords kernel is only for stock ROMs, I don't think cm kernels allow you to charge in cwm which is why I recommended it. Just flash the offline charging fix and you'll never have this problem again.

Hi Guys,
I have used my T-mobile Note 4 for years since it came out. I have replace the batteries once, but like a month ago when there was an update my phone keep restarting and turning off. I then had to get another phone because of that I still cant get it to restart even after I bought a new battery, updated the firmware. can some one guide me the right way to do this right. I think I am not doing the flashing the right way.. with oldin, and the correct firmware. after I do that I get this installing updates andriod show and it stops and reboots again. please help. thanks
- this phone was never locked before
- Replaced the battery once
- one day when there were a bunch of apps that needed update with probably 35% battery I let it update and after that it kept rebooting
- So installed the twrp recovery.tar.md5 from here that didnt help
- So then from sammobile I downloaded the latest firmware and installed it, that didnt help too
So the question is can I just wipe the whole phone and start fresh? -

download and install this using odin

if that didn't fix Im afraid you have to do the factory reset using TWRP factory reset or android recovery reset

Thank you for your response, unfortunately this didn't work for me I did install the latest firmware , but the phone doesn't go to the stock recovery mode for some reason and keeps rebooting. it does say Recovery booting... but it shuts off. so I have no way to do that even if I keep pressing the volume up, power and the home buttons pressed then release the home and power and keep pressing the volume button.

So I tried this yesterday evening,
- I did install the latest firmware which was suggest in by one of the comments above :
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651442761499080
- then flashed it with philz recovery and did the factory reset and rebooted it but no luck.
- when restart the phone, its shows the Samsung note 4 logo then shuts off.
im afraid to say that your note 4 might bebroken now. If you go to the note 4 reddit, this has happened to many people and has something to do with the solder degrading after a few years iirc. Best thing you can do is buy a motherboard replacement for around 60 on eBay if nothing else works. I have replaced 3 note 4 motherboards for people i know that this has happened to.

- Ran into another issue where I am getting this 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.'
- For some reason the Oldin froze and I had no way to stop the download process.
- I tried using Kies to install the recovery but cannot, I did look for SM-N910T ...but nothing.

^^^This. I just had to replace our two Note 4 after years of service over the last two months. Same symptoms as yours. It is most assuredly hardware related.
Even "better", from the two replacements sent by TMo, one failed within the week. The replacement just abruptly shut off and doesn't turn back on unless the battery is removed for 20 min. or so.
However, once it turns on it freezes. Try to boot to recovery, it freezes before even loading it up. One time the screen display even corrupted on me.
So, tldr, it is time for a replacement MoBo. Good luck!

You have a bad battery, replace with this one dont buy off the eBay they are fake

The new battery may initially help, but it sounds suspiciously like the mmc is beginning to fail. Wakelock app set to option 4. Only thing that worked for me.

Good luck, my friend!

Why is it that the When I restart the phone show the Samsung Galaxy note 4 powered by Android screen and then when it has to go to the next screen the Samsung (pink) only the S partially shows, freezes and then the blue light comes on and the light now stays on, screen go blank and stays that way even if I do a restart by pressing the volume down + power,
