[WIFI Only] [How-to] GT-P1010 Gingerbread Update - Galaxy Tab General

I know a lot of people are going to have problems updating to the latest gingerbread build.
PLEASE NOTE: This update will remove root but you can root again with CF-Root from second post.
ALSO, THIS PROCESS WILL WIPE DEVICE!
1) Put your P1010 into download mode (by holding POWER and VOL-DOWN):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2)I went ahead and used ODIN tool to downgrade/upgrade to the latest FROYO firmware before Gingerbread:
P1010XWKC1_OXX
(OEM Flash Guide here)
You should have the same tick marks and files loaded as in my screenshot. Be sure that the box is yellow on the right and you can initiate the firmware install by clicking 'Start'.
3) (VARIES) From there, after restart some people will experience a force close followed by a reboot loop. You will need to flash this kernel via ODIN:
P1010ZHKF1-kernel
(Flash this the same way as above but UNCHECK Re-Partition and CSC!)
4) You will then be able to boot into Froyo.
5) You will use ODIN again to install the Gingerbread update and flash just the PDA (leave CSC blank and leave Re-partition unchecked this time).
P1010XEUKPG
(Flash this the same way you flashed the Kernel in step #2)
6) After it reboots, you will have 2.3.6
7) (Optional) steps in post #2 to install CWM Recovery and Root.

I recommend installing CWM Recovery and CFRoot in the thread below:
ClockWorkMod Recovery for P1010
After you install CWM Recovery, you can do a nandroid backup and never worry about brick again! (=
Also, you can use ES Explorer to mount root and get rid of the Samsung bloatware (AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!)

For those wanting to remove the bloatware (AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!):
You can remove the bloatware with ES Explorer, there's an option to enable 'Root Explorer'. Download the latest version from the Market.
See below:
screenshots are from my Galaxy Nexus but it's the same for any Android 2.2+.
1) Go to the 'Settings' screen
2) Change home directory to '/'
3) Tick the 2 marks on the bottom
4) Browse to /system/app
5) Delete whichever app you don't want, but do it with caution (I usually move these files to /sdcard and move back if it causes any type of force close)
If you totally borked out the system in such a way that you can't boot, you can always move it back in recovery via ADB (much more complicated process but it's possible).
Also, why not do a nandroid backup before messing with deep system files?

Nice! Great topic.

Updated op! =)

this is the best christmas present so far.
edit: worked, almost. thanks ! rooted flashing Skin1980-CF-ROOT-P1010-BETA.tar .

It's THE EU ROM but it works with my US P1010.

No restart issues?

If you followed those steps, the ROM runs stable without any FC's or reboots. I even have setCPU installed on mine.
Also, it's good to note that I'm running CF-Root kernel from the thread in 2nd post.
Plus, you could always downgrade if you run into issues. Just remember to always BACKUP YOUR DATA!

nice!
wow this is good news! does this modded skype work on this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16889575&postcount=1262

I cant try it now as I'm not home. I hope someone could try as so I won't have to think about it until I get home..

@blue_algae: neither the front or the back camera works. tried v11 and v12. so far no luck

Could you attach the logcat here? or if you could send it directly to theos0o, that'll be great. he's the modder of the skype apps I pasted above.
could you also try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153285 this works for me using froyo.

im getting excited about this.. is it really for the p1010 wifi only device? because from what i can see in this subforum is the devs working on the p1000 only. another thing, please don't tell me this is an official update. i don't think the bad sammy will update this little tab.

Depending on where you are freon yes it its the official ireland uk update and makes massive difference as well
Much better tab.

skype is working
@densets, skype is working for both skype mods I posted earlier. you just need to enable 'use valid preview'. for droidrx's version, set the app to 'crop' so your video is centered.

phew.. relieved by this news, nevermind if it is not going to be released here in malaysia, at least i can still skype with my family w/o much trouble into getting the ffc to work.

just rotate the camera and try out different settings.

sorry for the newbie question, but what's the password for the 2.3.3 file from sammobile?
edit: already found it, my bad

Interestingly, I've followed the guide exactly as mentioned above (had KC1 and the HK kernel from previous flashing) and flashed the PDA for XEU 2.3 from Sammobile, and I'm now stuck in an eternal bootloop. I like the new samsung boot music though, better than the previous one
Any suggestions?
Edit: I wiped data and cache from recovery, flashed KC1 and the Kernel and it boots fine. Checked Kies to be sure and it's offering me FW upgrade to KM2. Should I accept this FW upgrade or just persevere with flashing the new 2.3 firmware?

I just tried to install this from stock and didn't work. Very similiar to the last versions of this ROM, in which you had to install over another custom ROM to work. Is there possibly something I missed? I did the normal:
1. put Ultimate on root of SD card
2. put update.zip on root of SD card
3. applied update.zip to get into CWM recovery (did it twice, as normal)
4. selected Ultimate ROM zip in CWM recovery
5. stuck on Samsung Galaxy Boot image
try one more time with a full reset.
did you install from stock froyo or eclair?

do you have to flash a 2.2 rom then flash this one?
Same here. Phone stuck on Galaxy S screen.
Restored phone to 2.1
Master cleared
Rooted (First attempt)
Did not root (2nd installation attempt)
Installed ROM
Data reset
Reboot
*** UPDATE ***
Installation worked when installing on top of a ROM that was already installed.
I flashed from stock/masterclear and it worked correctly for me. Pretty nice. love the dock bar and the animations. Doesn't appear the home button works though.
I installed it over an early version of firefly, and it worked. Home button seems to be working for me. Flashing this ROM almost makes me feel I have a new phone, or something. I mean, it looks and just feels different than anything I have flashed previously. I like it so far, first impressions. Going to drive it around for a few days and see just how well it does under usage.

[AT&T][UCKB2]Heimdall One-Click -Total Stock- **now with or without root

Introduction
This package will totally reset your Captivate to UCKB2. This is the current version pushed out on new Captivate devices today. This package is intended for use on AT&T, however it will work with the Rogers SGH-i896 if you reset APN.
Note: this is stock rooted, I will put up a non-rooted version soon.
This package includes:
Repartitioning: Repartition to stock KB2
Reloading: IBL/PBL, PARAM, SBL, SBL2, Kernel, Recovery, FactoryFS and modem
formatting:Cache and DBdata
This package does not wipe:
EFS(Where your serial number and carrier information is stored)
Data(where your market apps are stored)
SDCard (where your pictures are stored)
You may use this code to reformat the Data and SDCard *2767*3855# There is no way to do this from Download Mode. The code will leave the EFS untouched.
Download:
Total Stock:

Your device will end up as it came from the factory:
How I created this package:
I obtained the stock 2.1/2.2 bootloader which Trae uploaded
The stock Captivate part.pit came from my device using Heimdall(Download Pit option)
Uploaded the KB2 firmware to my device with bootloaders from nerz
Performed "wipe data" in recovery mode
Exploited the root prompt at the battery charge sequence using UART and grabbed the stock, wiped dbdata/cache partitions and params.lfs partition
Created a Heimdall tar.gz package using Heimdall 1.3
Finally, I used my Heimdall One-Click *BETA* packager to generate this one-click
This procedure can be reproduced for any custom ROM in the future.

Nice work!
Trying this out now on Win7 from Pinnacle 1.2 (RFS) will let you know results. I have been waiting to try UCKB2, thanks Adam!
Just wanting to be sure before I try and brick my phone lol.
When coming down from gigglebread, we need to use the froyo bootloaders i assume.
I dont know if its from running this in windows, but the flash bootloaders check box is greyed out for me. i clicked the details box and i am able to change the true false values for the flash column.
can i assume that i need to have the bootloaders set to true as they are set to false by default? also should i just true them all?

You wont brick your device if you don't flash bootloaders. Follow the instructions. If it wont boot, then flash again with bootloaders. This is a safety feature. If your device wont boot after flashing, then check flash bootloaders and flash it again.
Thanks for the quick reply Adam. Worked like a charm. Always a god job from you.
Adam... this is EXACTLY what i've been looking for. My wifes captivate hates every rom I've tried and I wanted to get her back to stock.
THANK YOU!
Adam,
Can I use this to go back to stock from CM7?
If you see this message:
Code:
Local and device PIT files don't match and repartition wasn't specified!
then your partitions are changed and it won't work and do not try it on Windows or Mac. On Linux, you can use this to correct the repartitioning problem and flash it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17485056&postcount=23

This package worked great on both of my Captivate phones. You and Ben have done a great job along with all others who have supported the project. It will be awesome once your able to get the re-partitioning to work properly on Mac's along with Windows.
Great work. I didn't think it would work because one click unbrick didn't recognize my phone. But I opened the file, plugged in and it detected my phone. I didn't actually flash it, but I figure if it sees my phone, it should flash with no problem.

[Q] OTA update keeps failing to download

My wife got me a brand new A500 off ebay a couple of months ago for a Christmas gift(for me it's only three days old). So far I love it but it will not take the OTA update that it keeps bugging me about. The download starts fine but then stalls out mid download. I looked here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113878 but did not see my current version there. Can anyone point me in the direction of the OTA I need to download and flash with recovery? My build is Acer_a500_1.145.09_com_gen1 I'm running 3.0.1. It looks like it's trying to download 4.010.11.
Further info:
According to the log the file name is Acer_A500_1.145.09_4.010.11_com_gen1_1311243587838_bd1ab95c.zip
I can't find that file anywhere on the net.
The reason I would suspect is because someone replaced the stock recovery? Off eBay you say, was it brand new and never used? It sounds like it was used or someone tampered with it?
If that's not the case, then you can just install the update manually. Download the update you want and put it on your external SDCard and then enter recovery (using power and volume). The recovery will install the update for you.

It said it was brand new. My wife would not buy something like this used. The weird thing is it knows it has an update and it starts to download and get's up to half way downloaded and then it just stops. It shows that it still is pulling data but the downloaded file size doesn't increase anymore after it stalls.
Ive been looking into rooting it and since I'm on 3.0.1 it appears Gingerbreak is all I need. The next question is what rom should I get and how do I go about installing it? I've never rooted droid before and most instructions on XDA are written for the experienced level and not the new guy. I'd like to stay fairly stock but rooted.

Yes, if you want to flash 3.2.1 stock with root read the instructions in the download. The download has everything in it.
The soft reset everyone talks about is using the paperclip in that little hole next to the USB port.

I flashed stock D5803_23.5.A.0.575_R11D_Nordic Generic_1288-5411.ftf and then flashed recovery to TWRP via fastboot but i still get the same error 7 when trying PA after that.
My next attempt is to install that NUT dual recovery and try flash PA after that.
Camera and modem not working
Got it installed (finally...). You need a working TWRP recovery.
What's working:
- WiFi
- Paranoid OTA seems to work; no further build available to try (doubt that it will work without recovery though; see below)
Not working:
- RIL (so no phone or SMS)
- camera
BT and GPS not tested yet.
To be able to flash you need to
- modify updater-script located in META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script (which is actually a text file) of the ROM zip
- open it in a text editor
- replace "aries" with "z3c", save it somewhere (delete .txt if it's saved with this extension; filename must be "updater-script")
- open the zip with 7zip (recommended; dunno if it works with other archivers)
- replace the updater-script with your version in the zip
- place the zip onto your device
- enter recovery
- Factory Reset (no need for a full wipe)
- flash it
- flash MM Gapps directly afterwards (OpenGapps not recommended - use Slim Zero Gapps instead)
- if you want root, flash SuperSU BEFORE rebooting (see below)
Recovery will be lost and can't be installed with TWRP Manager or Rashr after flashing (Didn't work for me - please report if you got it working and if so - how. Maybe with fastboot, didn't try that yet)
Happy flashing...
I'm sure issues will be fixed quite fast in later builds as everything works already in latest Carbon ROM (find it on testing.myself5.de). Maybe @Myself5 can help with that...(?).

I flashed and it's same with you.It's not okay for daily driver.Also it overheats a lot.
Nice, they said they already fixed the mobile radio bug internally and will be releasing a new build soon
radio is fixed and currently fixing camera
From PA's official Google+ post:
We are also announcing that with the help of Sony and their Open Devices Project we will be able to support all 22 Xperia devices on the SonyXperiaDev GitHub Instance. This initial Sony release is for the Shinano family, but the Rhine, Yukon and Kitakami platforms are expected to follow shortly. This is really exciting news for us and it allows us to give you the Android experience we all love on a much wider range of devices.

If this is the case, maybe the camera will actually be usable? What do you think guys?
P.S. We should contact a moderator to move this thread to General forums, this is not development.
where is the zip file ?

It's removed for the meantime
That's because it had so many bugs
Wait for some more days for a better build
Anyone have mirror for last version?

[Guide] How to ROOT + TWRP + Install Nougat on Canadian LG D852

*** Important: Your Warranty Is now Void. Always take a Nandroid backup. I am not responsible if you damage your phone or lose any data***
Hello everyone. I created this guide for the Canadian D852 since I didn’t find anything that was straight forward. Credit goes to all the developers who made it possible for us to keep using our beloved LG G3.
This is my first attempt to create and share a guide. I hope it will be useful to other users. If you find any error or have suggestions, please send me a message.
Download all the files before you begin. Do not forget to copy your ROM and GAPPS to your SDCARD before you install TWRP.
Go back to Lollipop using LGUP **Always use USB 2 port. It won't work with USB3**:
Download your kdz (d85220… not d85230). I downloaded mine from:
https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-d852-firmwares/
Follow these instructions (works with D852 don’t worry):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64624353&postcount=3
Choose the kdz from your provider. For example, I have an unlocked Fido phone but I want to use it with Bell. So I used the Bell 20k KDZ.
When selecting a file to flash, type *.* and press Enter in the filename for your .kdz to show up. If you do not, it will only show .tot.

Root your phone using this method:
Enable ADB debugging.
Unplug usb cable.
Go to Settings > About Phone > Software Information and tap build number until you are presented with "You are now a developer".
Back to Settings screen.
In Developer Options, enable USB Debugging.
Connect usb cable.
Click OK when asked to allow USB debugging in android.
I use the root.bat method. If it doesn’t work go back to step 1 and try again.

Install TWRP using Autorec:
Copy the rom and GAPPS to your SDCARD before you install TWRP.
Download the file from here:
https://mega.nz/#F!rtI1naZT!LJIKUVpv8fYjrvhpykA4_A!2o433RBZ
Transfer the file to you internal or external SD card.
Head in to Settings -> General -> Security, then scroll down until you see Unknown sources. Tick the checkbox, then hit OK on the next prompt.
Install APK via the file manager.
Open App.
Grant root access.
Wait a few seconds while it does some backup.
Wait for prompt to say that it is ready to flash.
Click the button to Flash TWRP.
Wait for it to be done.
Phone will reboot into TWRP
Update TWRP to the latest version if you want.
Download and install Nougat rom. Tested with CrDroid v3.6 and open_gapps-arm-7.1-nano.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/rom-crdroid-t2955012
http://opengapps.org/
**I’m not sure if it’s necessary but I did it anyway** Flash Dene Hybrid Baseband via TWRP (don’t forget to wipe cache and dalvik after) if necessary (mobile data is unstable etc…).
https://mega.nz/#F!rtI1naZT!LJIKUVpv8fYjrvhpykA4_A!2tJFBLLK
Source: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/canadian-d852-stock-bumped-rooted-rom-t3056843
That’s it! Enjoy Android Nougat!
N.B. That is the only way I was able to get a stable mobile data connection. Only flashing baseband did not work for me.
Thanks, barguin, for a very informative thread.
How is the battery life on this Nougat ROM? I will be switching from Fulmics MM, and my provider is Fido.
Battery is very good. I can do a full day easyly.
Regards!
@barguin: thanks for the quick response. Did you try Exposed for Nougat? I know that Exposed is frowned upon in the CrDroid thread, but there are a couple of modules I would like to try. Thanks.
I do not use exposed...sorry.
Thx

Personally I had some problems with lg flash tool.
There is no need to enter download mode! LGUP will do it for you.
I read the heading in this thread and it said something about not downloading the D85230 file .. and my phone is D8530g as shown in the screenshot .. so is the D85220 file gonna damage my phone .... Sorry for the newbie question !
Sent from my LG-D852 using XDA Free mobile app
The D85220 file will not damage your phone. Instead, that file will install an older Android version on your phone, namely Lollipop (this step is required to gain root). You are currently on Android Marshmallow, and you will end up with Android Nougat if you complete all steps correctly. The procedure is meant to work like this, one step back, two steps forward.
The "20" or "30" in the file names (on that website hosting KDZs) have the following meaning:
"20" = it's a Lollipop file
"30" = it's a Marshmallow file
"40" = it's a Nougat file (I can only wish, there is no such Nougat file).
But seriously, the procedure requires more than a modicum of familiarity with flashing and with using various pieces of software. There is potential for bricking your phone.
No offense, but, judging from your question, I would suggest that you should enlist the help of a friend who is a bit more knowledgeable on this topic.
Guys .. Can I use the ROM on D855?! If not, so how to flash the ROM without getting any issues?!!
Thanks.
Do not flash the rom on the D855 it's only for the canadian variant.
Did this on my d852 and it's stuck booting on Oreo, Nougat, and stock Lollipop. Happened after I installed TWRP, any fixes?
edit: i think it was the roms.. got 3 bad ones i guess lol. fulmics worked.
Just an FYI, I followed the LGUP instruction for my Bell D852 but it was soft bricked, doing the flash using "refurbish" instead of "upgrade" did it for me and I was able to finish rooting my device!
How to root symphony i60.... please reply me
my phone no sound
I do not hear sound from my phone after installing CRDroid. the programs are working. YouTube is opening but I can not hear the sound of the media being played.
I do not hear the sound of the media played when I plug in the phone.
please help me.
Thanks alot man, this was super handy!
Edit: Seems I've got that problem where shutting the phone off bugs it and it won't turn back on unless you remove the battery and put it back in. It also resets the time. Kind of annoying. Seems to happen to some D852s after installing TWRP.
