Hi!
I flashed my P1000 Tab to Firmware 2.3.3 from Overcome before I sold it to a friend. He now wants to resell it on so I want to reflash it back to a standard Samsung ROM so they in turn can do updates in Kies etc.
What is the easiest way to do it - go back to a factory ROM?
I have had a look on Overcome and they say to go to the samfirmware site but I'm not sure which one I want as I seem to be going around in circles.
The tablet is in Australia so it would need to be a ROM for Australia.
Can someone point me in the right direction of what I need to do and where I get the ROM I need etc?
Thanks

Not sure where you'd find one but there were Roto backups of the Telstra ROM floating around somewhere. I don't think theres any ROM dumps for Optus (I've been looking for one for ages) anywhere, but you might be able to try using one of the stock Euro ROMs and see what Kies will do with that.
Remember, however that neither Telstra nor Optus ever released a Gingerbread update and are unlikely to at this point, so Kies probably won't be all that useful.
Hi
So I downloaded this files called P1000NUBJP7_UUBJP7_UBJP3, but now dunno what to do.
Do I install it via Odin somehow, the file above contains a PIT file and also a .rfs file which I guess is the firmware as it is 250Mb.
When I try and add the item for CSC and PDA in Odin there are none in that archive!
Thanks

Please Help.
I have the US-Tmobile tab (SGH-T849). As you can see in the attached file, it has the JJB Firmware.
It is rooted with Clockwork Recovery installed and Sim-Unlocked.
Strangely, I cannot find this JJB rom on the Samsung website (USA latest "JJx" is JJ3) - so I guess mine is older than Oct 2010. Anyway, I want to flash the latest EURo ROM (JMC) that is available to make voice calls with this device.
Tell me what ROMS I need to flash to get from JJB >> JMC, Please?
What I could find in the forums so far is the examples to first flash JM6, and/or JMA and then higher. Is that the upgrade path I need to take and if not, what ROMS do I need to flash?
Thanks
I second this. I have the tmo tab, looking to go up to jma but so confused about all the pit files and such. I have read over and over but nothing its clear enough about the type of tab it works on and I have a feeling I cant just flash the whole jma.tar to my tab as is
I third that.
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA App
I fourth that.. Any expert here to help us?
Hey guys
I'm running the P1000JXJJ1, FroYo JPJJ2 firmware on my Tab, and samfirmware states P1000JVJL1 is the latest one !
so I was advised NOT to use KIES, and ODIN was better !!
My tab is rooted with OCLF set, Just a quick question, Odin will delete all my data and also I believe that I'd have to re-ROOT the device right?
another question is since I didn't have market out of the box, the product sales code has been changed to XSG.
thanks a lot guys in advance
Cheers
Jackie
if u use oclf, undo oclf b4 update firmware, kies or odin works fine for me, i'll only use odin when i screw up with my tab
and will I have to re root the device and also will ODIN delete all my data?
Hi,
searching for something else I accidentily found this thread.
Maybe my experince might be of any interest: got the galaxy tab 3 days ago, installed KIES and instantly got a message to update the firmware to Froyo JK5. I followed the suggestion to save my data which I regret later, because it took very long (had already copied a lot of videos to the internal sd) and couldn´t stop it. To cut it short:
the update was successful and nothing deleted, just everything in place. Also synchronized Outlook contacts, though at 96% it got stuck - waited a few minutes, then broke up and all contacts had been transferred fine.
(don´t know, if firmware is different for other countries...)
Odin will not delete your data if you did not choose to repartition, no need to use pit file to repartition if you are just upgrading fw from the same region..safest is still via KIES
To correct some mis-information from above. Flashing with Odin can delete your data, it depends on what components are included in the image you flash. If you flash an official ROM with Kies you should not loose your data but there is always a risk of an issue occurring during any flash that could lead to data loss. Unless you flash a pre-rooted custom ROM you will loose root and SU during a flash. These can be re-applied easily to the SGT using the Super One-Click method.
Redardless of what flashing method you use, if you use RyanZA's OCLF you must undo the lag fix before you flash, otherwise you will certainly loose data and possibly end up with a corrupt system that won't boot (I had first hand experience of this early on in my flashing days with my SGS!). You shouldn't really need to apply a lagfix to the SGT as it doesn't seem to suffer from the same lag as the SGS.
Finally, flashing with Odin can lead to product code being changed, especially if the ROM you flash isn't intended for the normal product code of your device. There are various ways to restore your poduct code, look in the Samsung Galaxy S forums for suggestions on how to do this as the basic construction of the ROMs is very similar between the two devices from that point of view. Also, be aware that people with SGS devices have reported loosing their IMEI while flashing with Odin. If this happens you will end up with a WiFi only device unless you backed up your /efs folder before you flashed. There's lots of info in the SGS forums about this and it's worth a read if you are new to flashing. I haven't heard of anyone with a SGT loosing their IMEI yet but it's worth taking precautions.
Happy flashing folks!!
thanks a bunch guys, I'm now running the latest version !!
was just trying to install the latest gingerbread theme from the forums !! will let you all know how that went

Go to the Android Development section.
Look up Overcome and BOCA for the Galaxy Tab. Both a great however I prefer BOCA. The current release is 2.3.4 but 2.3.7 is in the works.
If you follow the instructions for BOCA you will have a GTab that feels like it was newly born again.

Yes. Follow the instructions on the magrathea site or overcome
Use overcome instructions to instal stock GB 5. It tells you the pit and modem to use for your tab.
Then install the overcome kernel and reboot. It will root the tab and format the storage.
Then you install the Boca zip over the overcome kernel.
If you just want overcomes Rom follow their instructions. They make it simple

thanks guyz for da info..
so i dont need to flash stock rom like i always do with my SGS before installing any custom rom?
Hi Guys,
Ive searched the forum, to no avail...
I would like to flash my Apollo with FroYo, but for safety's sake im trying to find a copy of my original firmware so I can flash it back and use KIES if needed.
If I type in *#1234# I get:
PDA I5800XXJG7
Phone I5800XXJG3
CSC I5800XXJG5
Does any kind person have the relevant files handy for upload please?
Also, If I flash a new firmware should they all match the original (ie the I5800XX part).
Thanks for your help
I posted the same question a week ago. I didn't get a straight answer. I had the same firmware before i flashed to XXJPM. Your firmware is XXJG7, but I didn't find it on samfirmware. I found XWJG7, but I think that is not the same, because there is xxjpf and xwjpf - the first one being older. To update via kies when the official update comes u need an official firmware, XXJG7 is official since u got it with your phone, but u cant find it, can you? So you need any official firmware, but i don't know witch are official except XXJG7... Anyway don't bother with this, you can flash froyo without backup, i did it and nothing went wrong but be cautius and folow the steps closly and when the official update comes it will be avaliable to flash via odin. until then flash any non official froyo
I have this rom and am uploading it now its I5800XXJG3 - csc xxjg5 - phone xxjg5 - pda xxjg7 will post a link soon
here you go
megaupload.com/?d=OYHZW0WX
Thanks
I see the numbers are slightly different, does it matter?
I have also read that flashing the bootloader can cause hard-brick issues, is it better not to flash the bootloader?
i did not flash the bootloader just to be on the safe side, not sure what the cl447760 & cl460190 mean all i tell you is kies see's this as the latest firmware for my phone the uk .
i got the phone three weeks aga at the carphone warehouse it is unbranded and unlocked
Thanks again for your help. I have now upgraded mine to the standard XXJPM FroYo with ODIN. Just out of interest, is there a way I could have got the old firmware off my phone into files like you uploaded?
i think you can dd them to the sd card but not sure how to do it , i googled for ages to find my that firmware on some random site because i did not like froyo after i flashed it
ive gone back to 2.1 until i can find a fix for icons not staying on the home screen from apps installed on the sd card after a reboot. other than that i was pleased with it.
Hi,
Would anyone be able to upload the stock rom included on out-of-the-box Optus GT-P1000's? If not, are there any copies of Telstra's GT-P1000T ROM anywhere?
Thanks heaps!

Do a search for "telstra rom galaxy tab"... Not original as it is a rotohammer backup but it is telstra stock rom... Its also pre-rooted...

Thanks for the quick reply. Do you think there's any chance I'm going to find the fully stock ROM as opposed to a pre-rooted Roto build? Or the Optus ROM?
Not for the Telstra rom... Optus were, apparently, testing a gingerbread rom for gtab however when that is released is anyone's guess... Vodafone was also supposed to be releasing a gingerbread stock rom however this also has faded into history...
I spoke to optus and Samsung today re Gingerbread on the P1000. Optus had no comment other than to say they would pass my request to management. The guy from Samsung seemed annoyed with Optus for sitting on the firmware update for so long.
Optus CSC
Been searching both XDA and Whirlpool Forums for an answer to this but does anyone have a copy of the Optus CSC file for flashing through Odin.
Thanks

I've been looking for the same thing for a while.
I'm not sure of your situation, but I would say that a CSC file is probably not absolutely critical. A CSC file only deals with region-specific settings. As long as you enter the APNs manually to get your 3G working (check out AusDroid for your APN) you should be alright. It's possible you might have problems with Optus's included apps, but they're not all that great anyway..
I take no responsibility for anything you try, but I've done quite a few flashes without CSCs and I haven't bricked yet. Your mileage may vary.
Problem is I flashed to overcome before I realised I needed to backup my original firmware.
What I am trying to do is return it back to Froyo 2.2.1 but I can't remember what version of the firmware it was.
I have downloaded firmware from samfirmware but I cant get Kies to update my firmware it just says my version is not updatable through Kies.
Hence why I am looking for the Optus CSC.
I too would like to update to the stock, Optus firmware (even the old one would be fine)
Got a reply from Optus support yesterday and they said they had "no information" on the Tab's Gingerbread update "at this time". They announced in April that the Galaxy S and Tab updates were being tested, and the S has had its update for months, but the Tab's still got nothing.

CheckFus Downloader will allow you to download any rom you choose for your device.
Ive used it on my Galaxy I9000 and I9100 and it works perfectly.
It downloads encrypted kies roms, and decrypts them for you, ready to flash with odin.
Ive downloaded both the telstra and optus roms, but as yet im unable to flash them. Currently have Overcome 4.1.0 on my GT P1000 and for some reason, it stops while flashing the Hidden partition. Have tried repartitioning, and using different pit files, but no success as yet.
At least check fus will get you the current rom for your device, which kies will be able to update once again, verifying its a stock genuine rom.
Check Fus Downloader Website
Hope this helps you out.
I need one. Anyone?
If you need to reinstall the stock rom, you can do it from samsung kies, it will grab the latest rom for you.
You can also download it from samsung mobile website (do a search), but you will need to register
Kies would not work with my tablet, referred me to Smart Switch, which didn.t work either. Downloaded a stock ROM and tried to ODIN it, hung part way through. So, not having a ROM or as recovery, IreODINed TWRP and am flashing Ultra Lean ROM. Back where I started....

Is it then fair to say that there is no way to bring stock Android to a Tab A T580? I hope I am wrong, there is tons of bloatware in the T580, and it gets in the way of several applications, specially games.
Any suggestions on how to stock-ROM a Tab A T580 will be hugely appreciated. Cheers
I would be interested in a stock ROM for my sm-t580 as well. (USA version). I spent a good portion of today looking for one. I confirm also that Samsung's website was of no use! Unless I'm just missing something. But again spent most of the day lookong all over the net.
*Edit* - noob mistake. I got Samsung Kies to work this morning.... When it asks you to choose model number and serial number... Make sure you type it exactly. It's case sensitive. Give it a shot found my stock SM-T580 firmware and is downloading now.

Just to be clear... By "stock SM-T580 firmware" do you mean
1) The original firmware that comes with the tablet when you buy it? or
2) Clean, unadulterated Android (Stock Android)? ==> I am looking for this, anyone can help with that? TIA
The stock firmware is readily available at many firmware hosts.
UPDATO.COM, SAMSUNG-UPDATES.COM, SAMMOBILE etc.
All these have the firmware for the t580.
