The Galaxy Tab has been out for some time in Canada.
I know many 3rd party roms are available here,
but wondering what kind of official support Samsung and the Canadian carriers are giving users.
Has Bell or Rogers ever released an update to the original firmware?

Im sure that this subject has probably been covered before but
My galaxy, when plugged into Kies gives me the message that the handset cannot be updated. The versions installed are:
PDA: I9000XXJF4
Phone: I9000XXJF3
CSC: I9000TMUJE6
My question to all of you is, is there an update to this firmware and how do i upgrade. The network provider is T-Mobile UK...
Thanx in advance
No there is no official update from Samsung, we are all waiting for the froyo release. So you cannot update officially until now.
But there are leaked testfirmwares like JPH or the newest JPK. Look at adroid development. There you will find downloads und tutorials to upgrade to these leaked testbuilds.

The latest official 2.1 update is JM1 which has been out since August. I guess T-mobile have not released this update for t-mobile branded phones.
thanks for the replies
I have seen another Galaxy S on T-Mobile UK using the JM1 firmware. The only difference was the purchase point for the handset, mine was direct from a T-Mobile store, the other came from the Carphone Warehouse...
t-star
carphone warehouse handsets are generally sim free with no network restrictions so thats why it will be on JM1 using a firmware released from samsung
Tmobile as of yet have released no new firmwares
A friend of mine has JM5; he hasn't upgraded for sure. Too ..... U know
I see where some Focus owners have a different firmware version then myself(reports of ver. 2124.10.12.2)..
I have a AT&T Focus with the debranded NoDo update and show firmware version 2103.10.10.1 purchased in early February..
Is there a firmware update being released to users by Samsung which is again some Carriers are blocking????

I haven't seen where Samsung has issued a firmware update. Someone tweeted to expect an update soon, but that's about it. I have the same version as you, but the differences may be because of different manufacturing dates.
Hello,
Wondering if I can update my girlfriends Canadian S5 (SM-G900W8) with the tmobile 5.1.1 firmware, or another country? The 5.0 update is causing quite a few problems on her phone, wondering if I can use another countries firmware because it will be a cold day in hell before Rogers, Bell or Telus sends out another update.
Thanks!
Yes, you can update it with with another country's firmware.
I currently own an Australian Optus carrier variant of Galaxy S7 Edge (OPS) and want to install an Australian unlocked variant of Galaxy S7 Edge (XSA) since unlocked variant has recieved 2 updates since its launch but carrier variant has received none..
1. So my question is will this trip my KNOX Warranty and will it disable my Samsung Pay app use?
2. Also, if I install another country's Galaxy S7 Edge firmware that has the same model number, will this trip my KNOX Warranty and disable Samsung Pay Use?
3. Which country (code) receives the fastest new updates for the device SM-G935F?
4. Lastly, can I install a Galaxy S7 Edge firmware with a different model number? I want to try South Korean variant firmware..
You can flash any official Samsung firmware, and it won't trip Knox.
Someone else asked this earlier today: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/to-flash-generic-australian-rom-to-t3364559
Also, Samsung Pay isn't in Australia yet, and won't be for some time.
The Aussie carrier devices should get the latest update soon hopefully.

Thank you for your reply. Just one more question! I heard that if a phone is rooted, Samsung Pay app is not usable on that device afterwards so will it be the same for installing the other firmware? I know that Samsung Pay is not yet available in Australia but I would like to use it when it's launched.
Correct. Samsung Pay won't work on a rooted device.
Also, if you root, you will trip Knox. You can't use Samsung Pay on a Knox tripped device.
Even if you go back and flash stock firmware, this will not reverse Knox. This is permanent.
But if you just flash Samsung unbranded firmware over your Optus firmware, this is ok. Samsung Pay will still work.
Just to clear up something else, does your handset need to be unlocked before you can flash another official samsung firmware?

hello , i am using s7 edge G935FXXU1DQFG (united kingdom vodafone) , i didnt received oreo update yet, my question is can i download firmware of any other country instead of this united kingdom vodafone ?
I'm seeing conflicting information on how to flash our phones with official software and have a few questions:
Where is the carrier-free US S8 (not plus) variant firmware? I've searched, what even is the CSC for it? XAS, TMK? XAA?
I found a thread that seems to have the EXACT process for flashing any carrier firmware, it says to download the G950/G955W firmwares, which ones? There's some for Bell, Fido, etc. The op failed to provide links.
Has anyone actually successfully debloated their US carrier S8 with a non-carrier firmware, a firmware simular to what we had on the G930U? If so, could you post your EXACT process, down to the very download links you used?
I'm using a T-Mobile US Galaxy S8, and my friend has a Sprint Galaxy S8+, we both want the carrier-free firmwares flashed, but things seem to have changed a lot in the many years since we've flashed phones (the last phone I used Odin with was the Note II!)
Thank you
I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to the US variant of the S8, but I can tell you this much, the SM-G950W is the canadian model it seems, and XAC is the unbranded non carrier firmware for that model.
