I picked up a galaxy tab 4g, box says p7500r, it was from someone local to me. I powered it up and everything looked fine.
I get home and notice there is no 4g connection, I check the about tab and it is listed as a 7510
I tried flashing the kernal and recovery for a 7500 that was listed in the look here first thread, but I am not having any luck.
How do I get this thing on a proper 7500 rom?
Thank you for any help
Mmmm weird, sure you have a sim slot card???
ok, i found a p7500r rom and flashed via odin, seems to be working now.
guess i needed someone just as smart as me!
Pleases delete
Jejeje nice you got it working and welcome to the tabs world and the cra....ines of hc better you take a look on the development section!!!
I have a 7500r (rogers) tab. You can flash cm9 p4 without any issues. Works great

OK so i've had my tab for about two weeks and i can't get a clear answer as to what my options are for flashing my device. I see many JMC and JJ6 and I'm really lost. I know there are many models of this tab but i want to know for the American tmobile tab specifically.
the firmware i have says JJB...What are my options as far as to flashing to a new firmware?
Is there an official upgrade?
I will only use it for data and not voice calls, so i want to have 3G. I would like a fix to the lag in the calendar and browser.
Can any of the firmwares help me?
I also installed Kies with drivers and it doesn't see my tab? Do i have to be in download mode for Kies to see my tab?
Thank you very much for your time.
Same boat as you. awaiting some guidance as well.
Same thing here. Kies doesn't recognize my tab and I'm on JJB. Changing your IMEI works though, allowing for 3G and bypassing the T-Mobile redirect. I'm on the old school 5.99 T-zones plan and getting unlimited 3g .
same here there is very little guidance and very helpful people but I can't seem to just get a simple question answered here or there to feel comfy enough to flash my new tab, I know you want rotojme because there are no bootstraps installed. I know the koush clockwork mod kernel installs ext4 file system which is great but I can't remember where to put the files I need to adb? lol Im a mess cause its been since the g1 that I have ever adb anything.
Has anyone using JJB taken the leap of upgrading to a better firmware? How did you do it?
Any advise would be appreciated.

Seems like it is safe to flash the new roto jme rom. It.s in the development section.

JJB is possible
Happy New Year.
New roto's rom is working great. So far I flashed 6 units no problem. They were all JJB. Here is bottom line.
Current status, No voice and 3G possible.
Users have 2 options.
1. 2G(EDGE) with Voice by flasing (Euro Rom)
2. 3G only (with IMEI Mod)
I appreciate Rotohammer's hardwork for this.
If you need more detail, check out following blog at
sooparkhero.blogspot.com
It will go through step by step tutorials.
Can't wait for there to be a tutorial on how to flash a T-mo tab and get 3G. That's all I'm waiting for.
I went through the same mess with mine. I finally just flashed the full jm6 for samfirmwares.com and then just the pda piece of jmc. Since then i used rotos pre rooted jme. Again by just flashing the pda piece. The day after i flashed jm6 is wheb all this talk about different bootloaders came up, so im not sure which boat i am in but i could care less. This jme is ridiculous compared with stock tmo firmware. I am happy enough.with it for this to be the final state of my tab. Lower the lcd density a bit for a better looking tab and remove the contents of your efs folder(AFTER backing it up) for the imei mod that frees you from the webconnect plan and you are set
Issues with roms
There has been some issues with new roms. The issue is once you flash into one of these roms you can't revert back to old one. Here is related link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071
Professionals recommand not to use these roms until they are modified and further tested.
After installing CWM recovery, kernel, root, and CM7 on a Vzw Tab, is it possible to fully restore it back to stock so that Samsung will honor the warranty?
Friend of mine's Tab is having some screen issues and the warranty expires in about two weeks.
Is it possible or is he SOL?
Thanks

Yes he can. There is a stock ROM EC02 that is flashable using a program called Heimdall. It takes you back so Verizon would never know.

I have an AT&T Galaxy Tab and that link doesn't work for me. I've tried everything I possibly could to try to get this thing back to something I can use that doesn't reboot when I try to use the keyboard. I've done search after search and it never provides me with any information that's helpful to getting it back to a workable condition. I've come across the link above numerous times and I've tried to use those instructions over and over with no success.
I really think it's worth pointing out that constantly pointing people to these directions isn't helpful to those trying to restore a non-Verizon Tab. It's done zero good to me with my AT&T Tab.

But I clearly asked about a Verizon Tab and he replied with Verizon Tab-related info. That's a helpful thing.
On the other issue, the last thing you want to do with an AT&T Tab is try and use CDMA (Verizon/Sprint) ROMs. This is probably why your Tab is screwed.
Stick to GSM/ATT ROMs and you'll probably have better luck.
I've tried to find AT&T ROMs and none have worked so far.
Every time I search on this subject here I get sent to the Verizon fix.
I had the same problem, for some reason the older versions of Android that was posted on here haven't worked for me. Pretty much all the links provided in the instruction posts on turning the tab into a phone had Froyo 2.2 links. However I downloaded the Gingerbread rom 2.3.3 and flashed it and it works now:

Hi all,

I made a backup first on my external card and then I try to install the custom rom Cleanrom. And since then I'm stuck on the Samsung Logo! Impossible to go on recovery or do anything. !!
Please Help what Can I do?
Ok some news , I succeded to acces to Odin mode and I don't know why
Finally I've try to root again the samsung to be able to access to recovery. I let you know

You need to have a kernel that supports overclocking, you can find some kernels that supports that in the galaxy tab 2 dev section
Sent from my ST18i using xda premium
Ok but there is only 2 kernel availaible Infected Rom or CleanRom and I don't see any info if one of theses have overclocking possibilities :s
There is no overclocking available for the Tab 2 yet. One of the developers will have to modify a kernel first. Secondly, ROM manager is mostly for phones only, it is not compatible with this tablet so don't use it. You seem to be one of those that just fire ahead before looking first so make sure you read the OP in the ROM your installing first so you don't mess up again. 3G models and Wifi only model roms are not interchangeable.
Thanks for your answer !
I've installed CleanRom 1.1 on my 5110 and it seems to work fine
So I'll wait now. This custom Rom works better than the default one

Wrong, There is no overclock kernel for the 10.1. Theres plenty for the 7.0

Wrong, They will work but the user will lose that 3g functionality.
We have 2 valid stock ROMs for 7" one for P3113 model ( without GPS module ) & the other from SAMMOBILE for P3100 ( Turkey ).
P3100 factory ROM works on all P3100 phones in APJ region...this may not work in US or Europe models.
But if you bricked your P31XX, these ROM's will help you to get back on track provided you are able to boot to download mode correctly.
Hello all,
This in in regards to the new uk 4.0.4. I followed the guide here from scaryshark and I was using Mobile Odin lite that doesn't have the wipe options. I am doing the install on the canadian p7510 wifi and I was going to do the wipes after the fact as suggested later in that thread. After I did the install and rebooted my tablet it did the "Android is updating" thing and it worked perfectly and I have ICS and all of my stuff, apps and settings and everything seems fine. I just thought I'd let people know. I had to post here as I don't have enough posts to post in that thread I mentioned. Thanks
Did anyone get this to work the same as I did?
I just did it. All worked good, but I lost root. Oh well I'll manage...
Sent from my amazing 10.1 galaxy tab
No matter what root will be lost. I've tried it with both the 7500 and 7510 firmware and the non-wipe update method works great. So why is everyone saying do it with wipes (Outside of coming from anything other then stock HC I mean)?
Actually, I was on stock HC and used mobile Odin for upgrade (I was anxious). In any case it's better if you wipe because there are less chances of encountering a problem. That said, I rooted the tab and set it up the way I want it. I use apex launcher and I have to say that this thing is FAST!

The vibrant i was rooting needed to be reverted back to stock in order to root. I launched odin and download mode on the phone and put in the tar and pit files to revert it to stock. After doing this, the phone was soft bricked, when i turn it on it only shows the Vibrant screen and then turns off and on again. Recovery mode won't boot up, it gives a fuzzy screen, however Download mode still works. I tried multiple times to use odin and flash a stock rom again, but it resulted with the same vibrant screen turning on and off again.
I reinstalled and updated drivers, tried using the command prompt to launch recovery(this led to "error:device not found"), tried one click unbrick programs, all to no avail.
Is there any other solutions? Thanks
First thing I must ask, what is the device model number? Does it have front camera?
I must ask these questions as there have been a lot of people posting in this section with a T-Mobile Samsung galaxy s 4g (sgh-t959v) or with the Telus galaxy s vibrant (gt-i9000m.)
If you indeed are in the right place, T-Mobile galaxy s vibrant (sgh-t959) you can try the vibrant AIO toolbox. You can DL it in this thread

Toolbox is no good :/ still have the same issue. usb debugging may not have been turned on...i'm pretty sure it was on because the phone was upgraded to gingerbread via kies before
edit: yea it has a front camera and it's a t959
No its a t959v, the t959 never got upgraded to gingerbread and doesn't have a front camera unless you added it.

I am not the original asker but I as well have a problem and I don't want to start waves of simillar questions. Soft Bricked my phone yesterday by overlooking a most likely common mistake. I flashed CLM Recovery but accidently selected the wrong model UGHHH! Now I get the T Mobile Screen and I can get into download mode, thats it. I am aware of this Vibrant AIO ToolBox but Im not sure how it works and I am aware of ODIN which I have also never used. I downloaded ODIN and it does recognize my device. It looks pretty simple to use although I may be wrong. One of my major problems is I can not download any Stock OS Roms because the range at about 200mb and I am currently staying with a relative that has dial up. I dont know if I could get something faster through email. What I would like is step by step instructions on how to get my phone back to stock or somewhat functional. Any help would be greatly appreciated as we all know how hard it can be without your phone. Thanks, J

Your also in the wrong thread. Don't flash any files from this section. This is for T959 not T959v.
You can find files to flash your phone back to a working state over in the Samsung Galaxy S 4G section of the forums.

Head over to the SGS 4g section and look through the stickied threads. They should have the files you need as well as instructions. The steps for your device are probably identical to the vibe but I don't want to steer you wrong. Your biggest problem will probably be getting Odin to recognize your device. Try different USB cables and different com ports. You might have to manually load drivers on the computer. Good luck.
No tickee, no laundry!
Be careful with odin
what stock are you trying to flash? 2.2.1 or 2.2? Because some stock can fry your motherboard, like my vibrant, and then the phone is unusable....

what files did you put into odin to upgrade to 2.3.5? the newest stock rom the t959 officially got for odin was 2.2.
if your phone can still get into download mode, you can use the vibrant AIO to return it to stock.

Try plugging into charged and see what you get.
You also might try a jig to see if you can get it back in DL mode. Also try heimdall one click.
If all else fails go to

They do JTAG repair and also sell the jig.
