US Tab not Updating? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

I've got a wifi-only USA 10.1 Galaxy Tablet and it won't update. It says no update available. Is this true, or am I missing something?

I'm wait for this update as well, still nothing yet. I'm in Boston.

have you tried using KIES yet?

I am in VA and the minute I plugged the tablet to my laptop with KIES it notified me of a update. The upgrade went smoothly and everything is working perfectly.

Thanks for the info. I was expecting an OTA I guess.

I can't get KIES to recognize my Tab. I plug it in, and it acts like it's trying to connect, but the media scanner on my Tab starts, crashes, and then the Tab connects via MTP.
I'm really confused, and I'm about to just download the ROM and work from there.

Download Samsung Kies from the Samsung website and connect your Tab to the computer. It should prompt you that a firmware update is available. While the update is being installed, your Tab will not show as being connected to Kies. Just wait until your device boots up again and disconnect. My device was the same way and didn't receive the OTA update right away.

Don't update it. It just causes more problems.

Maybe uninstall Kies on your computer and re download & install.

It is working, it's taking forever on my crappy internet tho.

You've had issues?

OTA reports no update available. Kies recognizes my US Wifi model, but just says "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies." Does this on several different PCs. Any clue?

That's different. Are you sure you're running stock 3.2 with stock recovery?

Yep, never rooted or anything like that. Tx.

That is really odd. I hope someone with more expertise chimes in and can help you. I don't know much about kies...

Before upgrading my Tab I received a small software update on the day the update was released. Then I was able to get the firmware update through Kies.

Yes. Battery life is worse, wifi disconnects often, YouTube lags when playing HD videos, and you can't watch Netflix in HD.

Kies - device not supported??

Hello,
I just got my galaxy tab from Bell in Canada.
I installed Kies from one of the links provided in the rooting threads. I did however manage to root the device without syncing with Kies.
However, whenever I try to connect to Kies with my galaxy tab (after selecting the Kies mode on the GT) it says that the device is not supported.
I've tried pretty much everything without success:
- uninstall/reinstall kies
- uninstall/reinstall drivers
- install homeswitcher
Not quite sure what the deal is here..
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Same here, (Bell Tab) and it works fine with my Galaxy S.
I suspect some of the firmware versions aren't entered into the Kies database just yet.
It is good to know that I am not the only one experiencing this.
Thanks!
I posted about this a couple days ago, same problem here. Never got mine to work. Good luck, my post pretty much disappeared, lol. Must not be important enough for people to really help with it yet. Let me know if you get it!

There's probably not enough people with this problem to make it worth looking into.
I'm guessing as numbers increase, this might become more of a pressing issue.
Hopefully it won't take too long to get this fixed.
Very true. Time will tell.

Installed Kies on W7 and Vista - no result
Kies refuses to recognize the Galaxy Tab Canadian version even after I installed on Windows 7 and Vista.
I even rooted it (I can use Android Commander on it) but Kies simply refuses to see it.
Kies Mini supports it
I finally managed to install the Kies app from Samsung to help with backup and upgrades.
In my case I bought the device from Canada so I registered with Samsung Canada and then in my account I selected the device, switched to Software tab and downloaded the Kies Mini for it.
It seems to work, at least I did a backup from it.
Strange as it may sound all my Kies "not recognised" problems went away when I installed Windows Media Player 11.
I had the same problem about not being recognised with Kies, but only after my tab was rooted. unrooting was no help, it was fixed by unchecking "usb-error" in the subtab development. hope it might help.
Im having the same problem with Kies and Kies mini on my tmo tab.
Any new solutions??

Maybe they're preparing to launch an update and giving us an additional option if we don't want to wait for the staggered OTA update?

OTA Released (Root for manual update) - Flash on Market MAR18 (Leaked)

Motorola XOOM users on the Verizon Wireless network: starting tonight, a maintenance release is rolling out to you in phases, so watch for a notification on your device that will tell you when it’s ready for download. The update includes required enhancements to support Adobe® Flash® Player 10.2 (coming soon); it also includes a fix for a bug we identified with Daylight Savings time, so be sure to install it!

At least this shows how quickly updates will come... I guess.
how will us with wifi only get this?
Any update is good news at this point I think. I wonder if there is any harm in updating, ie will it remove the ability to root and what not? I wish they would provide more details on what exactly the patch does. Also, it clearly says on the Verizon network, what about those not on it and are only on wifi?

MY droid always popped up updates even when I was only on wifi. I imagine we'll all get it or someone will post the update.zip anyway.
I'm curious if the Tegra 2 versions of flash (10.1) floating around will have something to interact with, and start functioning. They have with everything else. As soon as I get the OTA (no 3G), I have a folder full of them in my Dropbox.

Question of the day. No dialer :/
yesssssssssssss
Glad to see an update but there is nothing listed to get excited about except a possible problem with the upcoming daylight savings time switch. Who cares about the flash update since it does not actually include it. But this will be a good test run to see how the updates are sent out and applied.
Cann't wait for the update to start

You can force a check by rebooting. Not the best method, but it works.
Why do unlocked xooms need to get relocked?
I understand why you need to be on stock boot.img but i don't understand why you need to have the device relocked to get the update.
It makes no sense.

According to the system update tab this didn't happen in 3 reboots since the announcement. Still last check at 5:20. Really want to see if any of the 10.1 Tegra versions work after this. I've been frantic to have Flash lately (PlayOn/Netflix).

It might have a minimum time between checkins. Mine said 9:20am, then showed current time for last checkin when I rebooted.
So would it be fair to say that those of us who have rooted should wait until this update is released to see if in fact we really do need to revert back to stock/locked condition? Because I'd really be pissed if we had to lose all of the data on our Xooms just for this update, when very few of us have actually changed anything with the boot.img, etc. I mean back when I first rooted my N1 but before I flashed custom ROMs, I never had to wipe back to stock to receive OTA updates, so why would that be the case here??

Verizon rolls out EL01 Update for its Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 4G LTE Version

If you are a owner of Verizon’s Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 4G LTE, get your device updated as Verizon has started rolling out EL01 update of Android 3.2. This major update includes TouchWiz for tablets along with many other bug fixes and performance improvements.........
http://mirolta.com/2011/12/29/veriz...r-its-samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-4g-lte-version/
We'll see how long it actually takes to get it... Verizon support website still says "coming soon."
Looking forward to getting this.
Will I be able to get this update even though I'm rooted?
ELO? Sweet!
Does it play "Don't Bring Me Down" while it's booting?

you can get the update but you are going to brick your device into reboot hell if you do. you need to go back to stock and apply the update properly and then you can reroot it.
and yes going back to stock via the odin file will wipe your device clean including the internal storage.
I wonder how long it will take to get a manual download. I am really looking forward to this update and it hasn't hit my Tab yet.
I walked in my office one day a week ago and my Verizon Tab 10.1 was in the middle of downloading an update. I knew one was coming so I assumed this was it so I just left it alone and walked out. 4 hours later it was still downloading so I figure it was hung up. I cycled power and it rebooted with the same 3.1 and when I checked for updates it said none available.
I have a stock 3.1 unrooted GT10.1 4G LTE. If it ever shows up again I'll repost.
Has anyone gotten this update yet? I switched out my wifi only tab for this one. I should have looked at the lack of development on this one first I guess, but it is nice to have 4g when you need it. I am on sprint for my phone with no 4g coverage and I am amazed at the speeds I get with Verizon LTE 4g. Also the wifi on this tab seems to be a bit stronger. Could just be my imagination but it seems to hold a connection better
I got the update but have a slew of issues. Wifi will not get IP address you have to static Auto rotation will not work and no USB storage. I also noticed the camera will not work at random times until I reboot same thing with games and apps. Thinking about using odin3 and restoring to 3.1

Dude I am so confused!! LOL! This is what happened on Friday I installed CMW wrong and tab wouldn't boot so I installed http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7718-romleakodineg01-factory-stock-odin-image-vzw-lte-tab-101/ got it back on first boot it asked me to update to 3.1 so I did and rebooted then it asked to update to 3.2 and I did thats when everything went wrong... I called VZW support and they stated that I should not have received any updated yet.... So I just did the above again and this time I checked and it is 3.1 I did receive another message about an update only 11mb so I updated and reboot. Right now I am on 3.1 and I have not been notified to update. I really do not know why it updated me to 3.2 but I know whatever happened 3.2 didn't work well at all.....
That is weird about the 3.2. I had a wifi only tab with 3.2 and it ran well. I wanted the 4g/3g option so I decided to go with verizon. I will say between the two the verizon tab seems to be better overall. Better wifi signal, There is not much on the dev side but hopefully that will change over time.

Ok, so you were prompted for the EL01 official update from verizon? So that means it's being sent out correct? I have not been prompted and I have been checking system update many times a day and nothing. When did this happen? And if anyone reading this gets prompted for the update, can you please choose "install later" and then with some kind of file manager go into /cache and look for the update file, that's usually where it's stored until you choose to install it. If it's not there please look around for it maybe on the virtual sd card. When you find it please copy it and pull it and post it please. Thank you very much.

You neither could nor would want to install the att firmware on your device.
If it could and you somehow managed to flash the bootloader you would end up with a locked device forever.
Flashing the system.img is possible, but why when the MM software is already available for your device?

Like I said:
1. I would like to use the Numbersync feature so I can share the same phone number across all my devices.
2. I would like to install the Samsung Gear app from the PlayStore so I can pair the tablet with my watch.
Instead of messing with the SM-T817A ROM, I'll probably just pick up a tablet from AT&T.

So if I have the Sm-t817a tablet will I eventually get the MM update? I bought it off Craigslist the other day and didn't care about the LTE but it was perfect condition 9.7" for $300 . I don't really care about rooting it or anything and it sounds like I'd be screwed anyway if I was bit I have my Nexus devices for that.

So, How did it go? I got the update a couple of days after you and everything is perfect except for the keyboard. Very Often, while I am typing, the system inserts spaces and misses characters etc. It can be a real pain in the a$$ to type on the tablet now.
Well, here we are, 17 days later; and the typing problem is Long Gone. Weird... But, Good !!
BTW
I performed a factory reset before and after upgrading just to be safe.
Anyone else ever receive the update? I'm still stuck on Lollipop.

I finally got the update. I didn't have my AT&T sim in the tablet anymore. As soon as I put the AT&T sim back in and checked for the update, it pushed out. Not sure if this will affect anyone else or not.
won't find the update
I've tried doing the update OTA and it hasn't found it yet.
I've tried to do it through KIES and it says that this device is supported by Smartswitch and won't let me do it that way.
I want to do it through Odin, but I cannot find the update file.
Does anyone have a link or copy of the rom so I can get mine updated?
Thanks!
After talking with AT&T, the only way to update this tablet without AT&T service is to go to Best Buy and have them push it for you manually. Alternatively, you can call Samsung @800 726 7864 and they have a way to push it from the cloud or something.
Yes, old thread, but this tablet is STILL the bomb and many people are buying them used off of eBay only to find the last owner never bothered to update to Marshmallow.

I was in the market for a new e-reader (OG Nook Book just wasn't cutting it any longer). Ended up with a Tab 2, but the Nook version due to the additional $50 discount. Was surprised it came with MM, but now I'm trying to figure out how I can get Nougat on it. This tablet really is the bomb!
