can some body tell me how i can install custom rom on my galaxy tab from bell? i have rooted my galaxy tab but when i downloaded the rom manager, it doesnt have the correct flash for recovery, can some body help out please?
Please search first.
Having said that, are there any custom ROMS available for your specific Tab? Have you looked around the development fora?

there are some custom roms for the tab, im having problem flashing cmw mod thats all, it doesnt have the galaxy tab bell version under the flash choices
CWM is not the only way to flash roms. There's also heimdall. Which Tab specifically do you have? A model number would help.
model#:gt-p1000m
You should be able to flash any gsm rom, other bell users might be able to verify, using ODIN, Heimdall or cwm. !st thing I'd do is read up on ODIN ver.1.7. Then read up on Heimdall. The more ways to flash you know the better chance, if something goes awry, you can fix it.
Being a gt-p1000 variant means you are a gsm tablet. Only flash gsm roms, wifi only and cdma roms WILL brick your tab.
Also be a good Idea to check you don't have locked bootloaders.. Check here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071 . look for bootloader patch.apk
Will check if bootloaders are locked and ask if you want to unlock or will say bootloaders are good to go.
Find the rom you want to install, read up on how to install - each chef generally has instructions.
Have fun....
Go to the overcome thread, doesn't matter which one for a tutorial on how to flash using ODIN, it has pictures for those that like visual stuff...

Please at least take 5 minutes to go read some threads instead of just jumping in and assuming you can just install CWM and be ready.

I rooted and installed a custom ROM on the wife’s tab not long ago. Can't give you specifics as you build is different, and my way might be the best (still learning) but it worked.
Flash the latest firmware if you haven't got it already. Do this using Odin and the appropriate rom. Search the forums on how to do this. It's very important to understand how to flash with odin.
Root it. Do by searching for an appropriate root zip, boot into recovery and install. Or other option is to use the SuperOneClick root programme by ShortFuse. I think it works on the P1000. Again, search on forum for how to root. Good to search for “root” and the build number you have.
Find the rom you want and put a copy of it on the tablet somewhere. Reboot into recovery and install zip from location. Most custom rom's come with instructions on how to do this so read carefully.
I know it isn’t detailed but I hope it helps you.
I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S GT i9000M Model and I wanna root it so I can have the newest firmware and cool features etc...
I have Odin installed and I know how to make my phone is detected in ODIN via USB (in download mode)
Before going any further and destroying my phone I wanna know some step by step for rooting my phone.
Like , I know nothing of the process... Could someone provide some good recent tutorial with the newest (not Beta) firmware I can get ?
My phone is currently 100% Stock.
Let me know If you have any advices, or good links to provide me...
N/B. Obviously I did some researchs... All I found so far are tutorials that says like : Your phone must be already running X.XX version (which are not supported on the s1) and be Rooted. Nothing really helpful for my stock galaxy.
Thx in advance

Yeah for rooting I think its best to leave someone alone for that, if you can't figure out how to root the phone then you should prob not be messing with it in the first place.
Just read the sticky notes and they are pretty easy to explain how to do it.

yes,good luck.

I have a M version and i can tell you, it doesnt matter. All canadian models of phones are VERY close to international, so you can use all their guides.
So to root:
1. Download either devil kernel or semaphore .tar file from respective threads. Flash them under PDA in odin, no re-partition. Leave everything else.
2. Your phone will not boot, DONT WORRY. Since recoveries are packaged with the kernel on this phone, all we are after is the custom recovery. We dont need the phone to boot.
3. Download Cyanogenmod 9 nightly/rc2. They are virtually bug free and not beta.
4. Flash it from your custom recovery!
5. Now when you flash cm9, it will change your baseband. You will have horrid signal, so flash back to a KG3 modem. You can find it, there is a big thread. And if the modem says nexus s cm7/9, its okay, it will work.
6. Wipe Data/factory Reset from recovery.
7. Have fun with it
OK, I walk into a client yesterday and hands me three of these. The desired end result is to get them all running on ICS becasue Jelly Bean isnt certified to use a piece of software that they need to run.
Well, he tried to this on his own and managed to soft brick it. I can get to Odin but any attempt at trying to push what I think is a valid ROM to it triggers a reboot as it should but then it just sits on the samsung screen.
The version of Odin I am using is 1.85
The ROM I am trying to push is: cwm_recovery_espresso10att_childofthehorn.tar(Only one i could find that I thought might work)I just want to get this one to boot.
Something that I have noticed and not sure if it is an issue is the drivers. Not all of them installed but Odin did see the device. I cant currently get the device to power up so I cant tell you the exact one.
As for the other two. Is there a tried and true method to downgrade these two devices? What ROM should i use? Is there a way to backup the current ROM as a recovery point. etc.
Sorry for all the questions. I spent most of the day yesterday plowing through google and this forum and it appears as though this is not a very popular device thus not a whole lot of information on it.
Also should this work on the two that curently boot up.

Thanks in advance for any insight and/or advice.
Why are you trying to install ATT ROMs on the t-mobile tablets? If you want ICS stock for the t779 then go to sammobile.com, hit the firmware tab, and select the ICS ROM for your tablets. You will need to register there to see the downloads. Use odin to install.

you can find official tmobile firmwares at sammobile and then use odin to install. If you need to root when you are done follow instructions here
there is an official ics rom there

Hey guys. I'm french Canadian (please understand my bad written )
and thanks to the phone I choosed (s5 active g870w telus)
I'm becoming pretty much bilingual I've checked all over
around The Web and over this forum. And can't find an accurate
answer . I know I picked the wrong phone for rooting but
as a construction worker it was a good compromise.
DONE AND SEARCHED
My Samsung Galaxy s5 Active g870w from Telus
is still on 4.4.2 since there is no and there will not be
any update for a while.
I managed to used the g900w8 version of
Chain fire auto root method using Odin 3.09
to get roots.
I have also succès to flash Unity 2.0.1 rom.
So far I figured that my version can count as
the Canadian version of the s5 small g900w8. (I may be wrong)
I found a stock Firmware (that accualy make my
lies in russian ) Wich I used a lot lately due to all
my soft brick.
My goal is to be able to upgrade to a nice custom rom
on lollipop. I was hoping Fusion. And as for the recovery
TWRP would be my choice if it was possible.
Now I am stuck trying to install TWRP. I have followed
multiple guide. I have tried to install from TWRP manager
the version 2.8.6.0 klte. I have tried 3 times and after the app
installation I tried to reboot to recovery using Quick boot,
i always end up in Odin mode.
I then tried to install using Odin flashing the same version
Downloaded from TWRP.me site. Then it let me load into
my stock version. Then if I try to reboot in recovery
it still stock.
I even tried to use safestrap both version at&t and Verizon
and both soft bricked me.
I have read or scan about every thread and none talk about
S5 a g870w. Beside the att version Wich are locked.
QUESTIONS
My Questions and I really beg for answers even if
You have only 1 answer.
1- Is my phone g870w compatible g900w8?
2-is it compatible to any other versions?
3-when looking should I only look for Canadian version or I can also
use either g870 from at&t,Verizon or international. Or I look for
International g900. Since I guess my bootloader is unlocked .
4- Since only at&t and Verizon are supposed to be lock I guess
I can't use safestrap... so are TWRP and CWM the only options?
5- Can someone help me troubleshoot my installations. ?
6- After I install my recovery a a g870w on kitkat 4.4.2
Should I be able to flash lollipop base custom rom?
7- Is it possible that there is no option for me beside
Unity and stock rom.
BOUNTY
It might not be much but I offer a 20$ minimum bounty for who ever
take me outta this non ending bulls*"t.
Thanks guys. And please I swear I have search and read a lot
just Google my model number and you'll always end up on me
Searching and I seems to be the only one g870w talking about
recovery or custom rom. All I found is how to root...
Jon
1- Is my phone g870w compatible g900w8?
No, it is different flashing anything that isn't designed for your exact model number ( even the AT&T ones which are one letter different) won't work.
2-is it compatible to any other versions?
No, only firmwares for your exact phone will work without someone modifying something specific for you.
3-when looking should I only look for Canadian version or I can also
use either g870 from at&t,Verizon or international. Or I look for
International g900. Since I guess my bootloader is unlocked .
Flashing any other model number but your own risks bootloop/bricking as they although look similar can have different firmware partitions amongst other things.
4- Since only at&t and Verizon are supposed to be lock I guess
I can't use safestrap... so are TWRP and CWM the only options?
If someone can have a look at TWRP is possible that they can make a version work for you: ideally I would say with it being so difficult as so few have your model I would go to stock: root and use xposed, and leave the rest.
5- Can someone help me troubleshoot my installations. ?
Sure, happy to help but don't know how much can help when you are trying firmwares for different versions.
6- After I install my recovery a a g870w on kitkat 4.4.2
Should I be able to flash lollipop base custom rom?
Unless someone has made I've for your model type I doubt it.
7- Is it possible that there is no option for me beside
Unity and stock rom.
Yeah unfortunately this is quite likely.
thanks for taking the time.
Now I'll go private with you for personal things.
but before maybe few extra questions will help the very few others in
the same painful situation.
about compatibility you answered no.
What made me search so bad is that I've seen
other members(g870a) claiming they we're using
g900 roms I'll search for a link.
-Does it mean even tho its risky or
it means that American version have more luck ?
-am I still able to use a recovery like safestrap?
-can I hang myself?
- and if I'd like to have TWRP and a know custom rom
would it be a lot of works for Des.
Is it "askable" are some working for money?
I hate stuck to death I miss my note 3 like crazy. .. damn

Google search for:
"Return to stock J3109"
Or
"Stock firmware for J3109"
You'll probably find it at Sammobile .com or samsung-updates .com.
Then do a Google search for
"How to flash stock firmware in Odin"
Make sure you get the newest version of stock or at least the version equal to yours but not any that are older than what you already had.
If your device does not boot but does vibrate when you press power then you can get a debrick.img from someone with your exact model number that has a rooted device using terminal emulator to retrieve the debrick.img from their while it is on stock firmware. Then you can find instructions for unbricking Samsung devices using an SD card to boot from.
