[Q] Install EURO Rom...how...? - Galaxy Tab General

Hello,
I know this has been discussed so many times and in so many places. But I need help...
My tab came with middle east version of the firmware and it has so many things in there that I dont want. I want to install the latest European version of the firmware and I dont really care about Arabic support.
I tried this once (got the firmware from SAMFIRMWARE.com - XXJMA) and tried by luck with Odin..all I got in the end was a brick. I got samsung to bring my Tab back to life..but now I want to do it again. Could some one PLEASE give detailed descr. on how I can install the European firmware on my tab? Appreciate your help.
PS: I AM a noob!

Hi first things first make sure your tab is unlocked sim lock off
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

My tab is unlocked and the sim lock is off.
I beleive my mistake was something to do with the PIT file and repartition.

what i did was flashed JM6 first then JMA
Just select the whole JMA.tar file as PDA. No repartition, PIT, Phone or CSC.
Flash. If it doesn't reboot after flash, reboot into recovery so it completes the install. Done.

thanks for the info..but if you look at http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm it says I need to use P1.pit for both the versions. Now i am confused. Please comment....

sorry yes use p1.pit

OK. Thanks...to summarize..
1. Switch on USB debug on tab
2. kill Kies
3. Start Odin (after going to download mode on the tab)
4. select the pda file (.jar) and the .pit.
5. Ensure repartion is switched off
6. start! once this is done, repeat for the second pda file.
Some more questions...
a. Now I dont understand why I need to use the JM6 first and then the JMA. Why not directly try JMA?
b. Also, I am right about the repartition? Last time I remember when I selected the .pit file, the repartition came on automatically. But by the time I realised it, it was too late. The process had already started and it never ended.
c. How long does it normally take for the update process to end?
Thanks for your help. Hopefully this time I wont brick the tab.

im interested in this thread too. I dont really know how to flash to Euro firmware. If there is any people want to share what they did, I appreciate.

Anybody? Please help us noobs!

you have to create an account here . there, on the bottom of the page you'll find a PDF file with everything what you need and also a video..enjoy

JMA is an update of JM6
that 's why you need the JM6 first
To flash it in JM6, I ve used Odin
set the pit file , the PDA PHONE and CSC
for the JMA refer to the JMA thread

1. Would someone please guide us to the JMA thread? I tried and couldnt find anything!
2. Also, there is no CSC file specified in samfirmware.com. I can see the download links for them on the website, but how do I know which one to use?
3. I just noticed on samfirmware there is a JMC version available now. Is that another update to the JM6? Can I go directly to JMC without the JMA ?
These questions should prove the 'noob' tag!
:EDIT!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884343
a. That has clearly explained the way to do it..but my ONLY question now is how do I know which CSC file to select.
b. The author mentioned something about 850 + 1900 and the modem. How does that affect the whole process? We would like the whole range.

JMC: *** Flashing Guide ***

READ BEFORE YOU FLASH: THIS FIRMWARE HAS A PROTECTED BOOTLOADER THAT WILL PREVENT YOU FROM FLASHING SAMSUNG OFFICIAL FIRMWARE.
MORE INFO HERE
I don't know if this process actually flash boot and spl because JM6 doesn't seem to have them, but you're on your own and I don't recommend you to do it.
Ok I'm going to make a detailed guide of how this worked for me because succeed depends a lot on which firmware you have in your tab. It's a good idea to start with JM6 since you can flash it completely if you have an older firmware or JMA (I guess you won't be able to flash it in the future if a new firmware is released). You won't lose your internal SD Card data but your phone will be factory reset.
1) Download JM6 from HERE
You'll get Odin 1.7 + PIT + PHONE + PDA + CSC.
2) Download JMA from here: HERE
3) Download JMC from here: HERE
4) Start Odin 1.7 and select:
*PIT P1_SMD_MAP.pit
*REPARTITION YES
*AUTO REBOOT YES
*F. RESET TIME YES
*PDA: CODE_P1000XXJM6.tar.md5
*PHONE: MODEM_P1000XXJM6.tar.md5
*CSC: CSC_P1000OXAJM6.tar.md5
5) Put your TAB in download mode: Turn it off, press POWER + VOL DOWN
6) Press start in ODIN and wait until process is completed. Your tab will REBOOT in download mode.
7) Now press POWER + VOL UP and when you see SAMSUNG logo RELEASE POWER BUT KEEP PRESSING VOL UP in order to enter recovery and let the TAB flash dbdata, it'll reboot and boot into android. (unplug your USB cable because Odin won't recognize it on some systems)
8) Open Odin 1.7 again or press RESET and select:
*PIT: NONE
*REPARTITION NO
*AUTO REBOOT YES
*F. RESET TIME YES
*PDA: JMA.tar (from JMA file obviously)
*PHONE: NONE
*CSC: NONE
9) Repeat 5), 6) and 7)
10) Open Odin 1.7 again or press RESET and select:
*PIT: NONE
*REPARTITION NO
*AUTO REBOOT YES
*F. RESET TIME YES
*PDA: P1000XXJMC_P1000OXAJMC_P1000XXJMA_HOME.tar (from JMC file obviously)
*PHONE: NONE
*CSC: NONE
11) Repeat 5), 6) and 7)
I have an AT&T TAB and this process worked for me.
If you need 850 + 1900 you only have to flash MODEM (PHONE button in ODIN) from HERE (modem_bell_i9000.zip) with No PIT, no repartition, no PDA and no CSC.
I hope this helps anybody and sorry about my english
EDIT: If for some strage reason you get the !!! --- !!! screen in your tab, don't panic. You can start the whole process again, Odin will detect your phone, it's a download mode anyway.
EDIT2: I always choose to wipe all my data. I use Titanium backup and I can get most of my data back from there. It's better to have a functional tab than a brick full of useless data. Wiping will always be safer.
EDIT3: Made some modifications to step 7. What you need to do is to enter recovery and that's it. It wasn't clear. Now I think you'll get it right. I didn't test it without step 7 but some people seems to be doing well without doing step 7. Maybe device is entering recovery automatically and flashing dbdata on its own (this is to be expected but sometimes it just doesn't happen).
What about rooting the device before you flash...?
Working great!!! However, I just didn't do step 7 in any of the 3 updates. What exactly do you mean in step 7? Which of the 4 options should I choose in Step 7?
Thanks

When flashing ends your device should install dbdata in recovery mode. Maybe with this procedure dbdata is flashed automatically when flashing JM6 at the beginning it's not necessary to do it manually.
If dbdata is not flashed you will not be able to boot android. Your device should display something like this when that happens (in recovery mode):
E:copy_dbdata_media:cant mount DBDATA: copy default media conent failed.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But I guess you're ok
Just ignore step 7 if your device entered recovery mode automatically after flashing ended.
OP , did U enable the voice capabilities ? And what was your initial firmware ?
Do U feel confident to say that you can str8 go from whatever FW you have to JM6 as a full flash , and not anymore move your way up from JJ4 (russian FW ) ?

If by voice capabilities you mean putting a sim card, yes, I tried and it works fine. I didn't test it that much, just a few calls and a lot of gprs. My initial firmware was jk5.
If I had a firmware older than JJ4 I'd just try to flash JM6 directly. I'm guessing here but I think that flashing JM6 the way I flashed it (following another guide in another forum) is like a full flash, it shouldn't matter what you had before.
Maybe someone with more knowledge could throw a light in here. What I can tell you is that I'd do it. I'm one of those guys that learn the hard way, and I've never bricked a device for good.
You're like me then. I do not even have my Tab yet but my fingers are already so much itching. In the meanwhile I am reading and learning. I am totally new to Samsung but I've had my hands busy for the past year with my Nexus One, so quite confortable playing with rom/kernel/radio world .

Flashing for morons
Monrad, thanks, this is a super post.
Just for me and all the other morons in the world. Can you also please give a basic run through of what you've done. I have the following questions.
1) You have 3 waves of activities in your post: JM6, JMA, JMC. Generally, what is each wave doing?
2) Please would you also explain what the fields in Odin1.7 are for?
*PIT -does this set the partitions on Samsung tab?
*REPARTITION -if PIT file this is automatically selected
*AUTO REBOOT YES -why do I select yes
*F. RESET TIME YES -what's this one for?
*PDA: CODE_P1000XXJM6.tar.md5 -PDA is core PDA firmware?
*PHONE: MODEM_P1000XXJM6.tar.md5 -what does this do? load modem drivers?
*CSC: CSC_P1000OXAJM6.tar.md5 -I'm not sure what CSC stands for and does?
3) With regards to getting my dirty hands on the right firmware, when I go to http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm, I look at the latest firmware for Europe. At the bottom of the list are 3 downloads:
a) JM6, b) JMA, c) JMC. What are the differences between these firmwares. I understand that J = 2010, but don't know how to decrypt last two digits.
4) Which PIT should be used in Step 1 of your sequence? What are the PIT files at the bottom of the page (in Flash Tools Section) of http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm
5) I bricked my tab. I got it alive again, only by loading the JMA via Odin 1.7. Basically I put my Tab in Download Mode. Started Odin1.7. Used the Eur Pit file (referred to in my Step 4), and then loaded JMA.tar (extracted from JMA file mentioned in my Step 3). With all the check marks checked in Odin. That was it, and my Galaxy Tab rebooted and seems to work totally fine. Why would I do the other steps mentioned in your sequence? What benefit is there?
5a) Note when I do *#1234# I get:
PDA: blank
PHONE: P1000XXJMA
CSC: blank
the PDA and CSC show blank....is that why I should first load JM6 and follow your sequence? What functionality do I currently not have because of these blanks?
6) A question on rooting my Tab... what are the benefits to doing this?
Thanks for dealing with my long winded post! I really appreciate what you've done so far.
You are a good man, Monrad!
I followed steps and got my AT&T tab updated.
A word about wiping data: I had my Tab fully set up with original AT&T firmware and then I started installation I got into lots of trouble. Instead of recovery mode it went into blank screen with vertical white line (I suspect it did dbdata update behind it though), then it rebooted and my apps started crashing.
The only way to fix it was to get to setting and do factory reset. After that everything went by the book.
So you may want to clarify that data must be wiped from Android, unless you have some other way.
Thanks again
How and where do I find the Dbdata file ?
When I go for step 7 i get the "can´t mount" and "media content failed" messages.

Great man. Thanks.
Edit: didn´t help. I still get the same errors.
I now seems to work. But my *#1234# says jm6 even on the jmc firmware?
Anybody knows what is the differences between JMA and JMC ?
You don't need to flash JMA. You can go straight from JM6 to JMC
You can skip oen unnecessary step
Can i do this on my euro Tab from Denmark?
Im on JM6
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Just did the update from JMA on a euro tab, I took the firmware from samfirmware not the one on the first post. I don't know the difference but the size is not the same..
Everything works fine, even without doing a factory reset, all my applications are working fine.But I don't see any differences between JMA and JMC
Guys
Currently i have
PDA: P1000JPJJ1
PHONE: P1000JXJJ1
CSC: P1000OJPJJ3
Its currently arabic firmware. Can i use this guide & update to this Euro fimrware? I dont need arabic. I am not rooted as well. Will this guide work for me?
i have a problem, all ok till JM6
and tab after start fine
but for JMA or JMC no dbdata in recovery
help me (for now i'm back to JM6)

[GUIDE] How to use Odin for GT-I9070

Odin is the saviour tool for all Samsung devices. The method for flashing by Odin differs from device to device.
This thread will give step by step instructions on how to flash a stock rom from Odin on the GT-I9070/p :
A. Download Odin tools from here : http://d-h.st/3zJ
Pass : shaaan
B. Download the stock rom from www.samfirmware.com
Setting up Odin :
1. Make sure you have installed the necessary drivers for this device. The drivers can be installed from within KIES or seperately. (I will upload the drivers shortly).
2. Run Odin as administrator.
3. Setting up the files is divided in two types depending on the firmware type :
a. If the firmware is a multi package file, put the files in the corresponding sections.
ie. CSC file in CSC section, PDA file in PDA section.
b. If the firmware is a single package, add the single file in the PDA section.
4. Now that Odin is setup, put the phone in download mode. To do that, power off the phone and press 'home+power+volume down' buttons together. Keep the buttons pressed till Download mide appears.
5. Now that Odin and the phone are setup, connect the phone to the device. Odin will detect the device and show something like 'com port (1)'
6. Flash the device.
7. The flash will take 5 minutes for a full flash on average.
8. When the flashing is complete, DO NOT remove the device until Odin shows ' PASS '.
9. The device will reboot. Remove the device, go to recovery mode and do a factory/data reset.
That's it. Happy flashing peeps..!!
Awesome guide mate - messing around with our device without Odin is risky !
This should be sticky. A lot of people is asking how to revert to original FW, or similiar questions that is connected to reverting. And it is almost at the end of forum, and thay cant see it.
I pmed the mods to do it. But they won't budge..
Please pm them..
Nice guide!!!
And adding images would be a nice option.
And plz add a point which tells which buttons to press like
"Re-Partition" ,"Auto Reboot","F.Reset Time" ,"Flash Lock"......

From what I was able to find in other guides it is ONLY 'Auto Reboot' and 'F. Reset Time' to be checked.
All others to be unchecked.
There are some posts not to bother with that .pit file that is inside Odin .zip file.
Odin package from sammobile got 2 .pit files for 8GB - GT-I9070_EUR_XX_8G and GT-I9070_EUR_XX_8G_20111220_KL6 and one for 16GB
(at least paired with XEO region XXLD1) not only that one we got in link form 1st post.
I was also able to find some info that if you use .pit check also 'Re-Partition'.
Now I am curious about if It would be good idea for me to actually Re-Partition my phone - bought it used (not new) and my PC detects only 4GB of internal SD. Will it increase custom binary counter? (so far it is at 0 and I would rather keep it that way)
Is it going to fix that issue so I will be able to use all 8GB (minus system partition)?
If so how to use it and what .pit file to take?
.pit only, re-partition only and run it once, then single-package as PDA with reboot and F. Reset on another flash run?
Or maybe all at once?
BTW you guys ROCK.

It is normal to have 4GB on internall SD. The rest of it goes to system partition, application partition and RAM I think...

googled a bit more and found it out too :crying:
BTW - both of those 8GB .pit files are identical (according to 'comp' tool in windows) so there is no reason to use re-partition - other than sth went totally wrong and you are trying to recover from brick or sth serious as this .pit file is already on your device.
Just flashed unbranded stock for XEO region - original one was branded.
NOTE to anyone who is still thinking about safety of this method:
After initial reboot - when it was reconfiguring in recovery mode - or however you will call it (just before odin should say 'pass' - still in that little font screen) windows started to reinstall usb drivers - odin log in bottom corner said 'disconnected' and even then my newly flashed ROM is working as it should. I would rather keep it connected till Odin confirms all went as intended but in case of similar issue - do not get heart attack

nope it can also be used to flash custom Roms and kernels though flashing custom kernels via odin will increase your bin counter !
Hello guys...
How are you? I´m new on the i9070 threads!!! I´ve had others phones before, like SG2, xperia sola, live with walkman... so, i need the password to descompress odin... i search on thread but i don´t found it...
SORRY I found the password... shaaan
Of what I understand, can I test an unlimited number of stock firmware and the binary counter remain 0?
If I flash an unbranded firmware can I use SIM cards from other providers?
Now my phone is branded and I can not use SIM cards from other providers.

Flashing a stock rom on my i9505

Hello, i recently purchased my galaxy s4 from online which came from Honk Kong, Because it is from there i believe it has the honk kong/chinese firmware on it (I9505ZHUAME3), I live in Australia so i want to flash it with its firmware (I9505XXUBMEA),so i have downloaded the australian firmware and kernel files, my phone is currently not rooted (i dont believe i need to root for a stock firmware?), Just wondering when i put my phone in download mode and open up odin, do i only need to put in the firmware file into pda or will i need to get a csc file or whatever the 'phone' button file is for aswell. Just making sure as i only got it the other day and dont want to screw it up. Thanks in advance!

This should answer all of your questions. If you are still unsure, let me know.
"How to do it:
Step 1) Turn OFF your mobile and go to Download Mode by pressing and holding the Volume Down + Home Buttons together for few seconds followed by Power button then proceed with volume up.
Step 2) Now open ODIN on your PC and connect your Galaxy S4 to your computer.
Step 3) Once your phone is successfully connected to your PC, the ID:COM box on ODIN will turn blue (or yellow) and will show the COM port number.
Step 4) unzip the downlowded file (from second or third post), u will get a Home.tar file.
Step 5) click on pda (in odin) and choose the file "Home.tar"
Step 6) check "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" options and make sure that "Re-Partition" is unchecked
!!!!DO NOT CHECK "Nand Erase All" IN ANY WAY!!!!
Step 7) Click on Start button in ODIN window to start the flashing process. The process will take few minutes to complete.
DO NOT UNPLUG USB CABLE WHILE EXECUTING THE PROCESS, YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE!
Step 8) When the installation is completed, you read a "Reset " then a "Pass". your phone will restart (first boot will take a longer time so don't panic)"
