Gingerbread update on Sprint 2.3.3 - Galaxy Tab General

Last week Sprint sent a msg that said firmware was ready, I hit the button and in about 10 min it was all done with just a WiFi connection. Seems to do everything its supposed to. I also own a international SGT GT P1000N, I have Kies and it does not show the firmware as ready, wonder when that will come out. Anyone out there know?

I have been thwarted (yes thwarted) in my attempts to get my woot sgt wifi only no contract tablet to do the 2.3 update,over wifi and also by trying to.download it and load it manually from rrcovery mode. How is it that you could do it over wifi only.
Do you have a Sprint contraact for 3g service? I read that it will only work the update over the air if your cdma is valid that is if sprint is recognizing you as a customer. Def wont do it for me over wifi.

[Q] VZW software update

So I have the R800x and just got a pop-up notification stating there was a software update available. I could not get the update because the phone is not activated and currently just on wifi and it said the update had to be across the network not wifi. Any whoo, anybody else get this? Im thinking its the 2.3.3 update.
I'm getting a download error so I'm not sure. Could be lots if things.

I've randomly been getting this since I got my phone but it never updates or downloads anything. It just prompts me that it will turn off wifi in order to update, turns off the wifi and then nothing...

You can always try the SE update software. I just checked on my phone and it said no update available. I have noticed that if you turn you phone off with Wifi on and turn it back on the phone with ask you every time to check for updates.
Mine also does this. Every few days it pops up and tells me there is an update and when I click ok out turns off wifi, does nothing then turns wifi back on. Does anyone
know if there is an update in on 2.3.2 currently.

I tried a few days ago with SE update and said the software was up to date.
Are you on Tmobile with R800x and if so how did you get GSM turned on?

I'm on verizon had the phone just over a week and every few days it tells me there us an update. Its an automatic pop up can't remember exactly what it says but it tells me that wifi will be turned off to download the update. I click ok and the pop up goes away and wifi turns off and nothing happens then wifi turns back on. Also when I try to check for a new update it has just been saying checking for update and uses my cpu 100% but never finds one and hasn't told me it is up to date.

Ok so I just checked for an update and it seems its working right now and telling me I'm up to date. This is the first time its actually told me that. I'm still on 2.3.2.
Sent from my R800x using XDA Premium App
As for me, when I check for updates it always says on my R800X that I am up to date (running 2.3.2). I am assuming that in theory it has the update available but since it's not the tweaked verizon version so it just stops you from updating. So pretty much we would have to wait for OUR 2.3.3 (Verizon Tweaked) At least that's my opinion.

Try turning the wifi off then do the update from the settings menu.
I was having the same issue, said there was an update and then nothing ever installed. Just for fun I ran SEUS and it said I was up to date, I reinstalled anyway and i haven't been prompted for an update since. Its only been about a week so who knows.

Has anyone ever had this data problem?

Alright this is just stupid. So I wake up this morning using facebook and browsing xda over 3g. I pop up power menu and turn off data, and leave phone for 30mins. I come back, turn on 3g and nothing. I've went to network settingsand fiddled with all the options there; 4G, txting, calling, and wifi work. I also had the "error: 67."
Only things I've tried is cwm wipin and flashing. I currently am away from home so can't just odin =/

Maybe try switching modems? Sfr doesn't include a kernel so try changing to a different kernel also, some of the newer kernels and roms have the modem flash in the install.
Also j would call sprint and ask if there has been any changes to ur data or hotspots plan, they should be of some help in that end. I'm kinda curious as to how that would happen tho.

This happened to my wife's phone went into see what modem I put in and it was gone there as nothing but characters re flashed modem all set.
I get this all the damn time. Especially around my area. What works for me is re-entering the MSL & resetting it to default. It reactivates the device & you'll get your data back!
When I called Sprint about this, they told me that it was because the phone "jumped" to a different tower that wasn't so close. Hope that helps!

Your bill is paid, right? I thought I had a problem like that one time but turns out my payment wasn't taken out when it should have.
But since you're getting an error it has to be something else.
I believe error 67 refers to wrong vision username/password. Have you tried something simple such as Update Profile? Worse comes to worst you can always do an rtn reset...
edit: CWM doesnt write to those areas... Neither does Odin.

New update to start rolling out today.. 5.07.651.1

Looks like the connections Optimizer is making its way to the OG Evo4G.. so says sprint..

Interesting
Hmmm, curious on how this will be implemented, and the benefits for the evo.
There some good info on the bottom link I provided, sprint has all the claiming 50 percent savings on your battery if you're using the optimizer. I'm willing to try it

Is this setting going to put us on a roaming network, even if a Sprint network is available, because of better speeds or strength?

what makes this optimizer special? My EVO will automatically toggle my 3g/4g/wifi already. I just leave on all of my radios...when I get home my wifi turns on when I leave wifi turns off and 3g comes back on....and when im in a 4g area my 4g automatically turn on.
So I dont get what makes this any different?
I believe it will automatically turn your radios On only when you have service available. Ie. when you enter a known 4G area the phone will recognize it and will automatically turn your 4G radio on. No need for you to have it on all day scanning and wasting battery. same goes for Wifi connections.
It will be interesting to see it work. I'm willing to try it. Sprint is pushing this service to most if not all of their smart phones.

It is sprint's idea to try and offload as many users from their network as possible. Which if it automatically selected the best network. IE wiFi or WiMax then they are not hammering their network as hard.
Haha touché
Good point

I notice it doesn't have a full change log. Is there going to be radio updates? Hboot? Looking down the list none of the updates show these, when they were added.

only for non rooted phones ????
so when will the devs add this to their roms
I hope they update android and/or sense.....I know they didnt state that in the update notes but back in January when we got 2.3.5 that wasnt in the notes either.
So I'm hoping for a surprise to hold me over until my upgrade in November
I would suspect that it only has the sprint optimizer, which really is just a way to offload consumption on their cell towers..
Just curious did anyone receive this update yet?

Wifi connectivity problems

Im having trouble staying connected to wifi at home, it stays connected as long as im in the living room close to the router but when i go into the bed room which is about 20ft away it disconnects and then reconnets several times. The router connection is 5ghz and only me and my wife use it.

First, make sure you've turned off "Auto Network Switch" in the advanced section of Wi-Fi settings (go to Wi-Fi settings and press the menu key and select advanced).
Second, turn off WiFi Power Save mode in the ServiceMenu. Go here for directions.
I done what you said i entered the codes you said to enter on my dial pad and it didnt bring up anything no services menus...nothing. but i did go to wifi and then advance and unchecked the box you said to uncheck and waited to see if it would kick me off and it did it still kicks me off wifi while im in my bed room.

If you're rooted, you'll need to go to /efs/carrier/HiddenMenu....
Open the HiddenMenu file in a text editor and change OFF to ON
Maintaining capitalization of the word ON
Save file.
Then reboot. Try those dialpad codes again.

Dial pad codes worked like a charm went in and changed the band to B4Enabled*. Now im gonna hang out in my room for awhile and see if i get kicked off my wifi. Thanks a bunch for you help i just hope this works oh and yes i went to text editor and then carrier and deleted OFF and replaced it with ON then restarted my device then went back into carrier to make sure it saved and all is good. Just hop it fixes my problem. Thanks again.
Now i need to tryn figure out how to make my call signal better....lots and lots of fun this phone is
When it kicked me off before it took awahile before it would connect back. While in the process of typing i got kicked off but connected back veryfast. Strange because im only about 15ft or so away from the router. I have noticed a big difference though, before my bars would fluxuwait from 1 bar to 5b now it usually stays at 5.
Anyother suggestions i can try
Go into your router settings and check/change the frequency(2.4-5) and the broadcast channel to match what the phone is using
Turns off the power save mode worked for me. Thanks. Now I don't want to flash to a custom to anymore. Thanks.

I just upgraded my wifi from 3megs up to 12 megs. Im still having trouble downloading files that are 1g and up. I downloaded speed test.net and checked my down & up down reads 10.92m and up reads 2.23m but when im downloading a file say its 1.25g it slows waaaay down to like .94m is it supposed to do do that? Im the only one connected to my wifi at the moment.

12mb/s is a pretty slow speed. It's going to take a long time to download it. When you're downloading a file the speed you see is Mb/s not mb/s. Megabytes and megabits are a lot different.
AT&T service person came out today and upgraded my internet, from 3megs to 12megs. I asked the tech how fast it would download a 2g movie his answer was, " it should take about 15 mins at the most". Wireless is just a f#@$in scam the co$k [email protected]$!ers will tell you anything so they can get ypur money! The highest they offer in my area is 12megs funny thing about 15 miles from where i live they offer 50megs. Its just a rip off!! Im feed up EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD IS A MONEY RACKET...MONEY MONEY MONEY......IM SOOO PISSED
