Hi
I accindently installet the wrong firmware on my TF300TG when jelly bean came out to TF300T.
That ment that my 3G hasen't been working since, but most other things is working.
Now that JB has come to TF300TG I would like to have my 3G back, Is that possible?
I have tried to upgrade to JB for TF300TG but the upgrade proces failes with error 2.
Can anybode help?
Shall I root the device to get it back or what?
Regards

In your case, if you want to unbricked your TG, you must unlocked and rooted your device.
Why unlock ?
Cause you need to flash some files from one recovery ( TWRP is actually the most efficient)
Why root ?
Cause you need root access and once time you are unlock, you can root

Hello, rooting is very easy. Just follow the instructions here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089
However, make sure you follow according to your model, mine is 7500 hence follow the 7500 instructions.
I cant be bothered waiting for the official update, so I've decided to root and install Overcome Series ROM here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348533
If you're very concern with warranty void, you can still unroot and return back to original stock 3.1 ROM, as if it is brand new from the shop(scroll down abit in the first link above)
Hope this helps...
Rooting is easy. Just look in the sticky in 10.1 development section! I rooted my 10.1 3g tab using the update.zip from stock recovery. It took about 3-4 minutes..Good luck!

Hi All,
My UK model Tab2 10.1 purchased fully unlocked , has the following:
Baseband: P5100XXLE4
Build : P5100XWBLF1 (4.0.4 firmware build).
I want to try Jelly bean, but I need to be able to get back to XWBLF1 in the event of problems.
I cant find a downloadable image of it, by any of the usual suspects(e.g. samfirmwares) to flash back with odin
I cant find a tool that will "reverse odin" my XWBLF1 firmware to my pc so I can revert if necessary in the future.
Can anyone either point me in the direction of an appropriate image or firmware backup tool please ?
Many thanks in advance

Hi
the best solution before to try anything else is to root the device and use cwm to perform a nandroid backup
so you could roll back to your stock rom in all case
in the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" Android Development section u can find all information how to root the device and upgrade to jb
bye
please im not professional in android i need someone to tell me how to update my mobile lg l5 from ics 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 or jelly bean ..and when i update it by wifi it says to me i have the latest version installed ..anyone tell me how to do it manually instead of waiting for an official update ?
Edit: Before you going to do anything take off battery and look under your battery what type LG L5 you got. This guide is for E610 and E612.
You will need this guide:

in the guide he is saying he isnt sure it will work for 4.0.3 versions and this is my version :S any way to upgrade to 4.0.4 ?
Okey these guides will work for you.
The first guide will update your base firmware to V20A_Rooted it will update your 4.0.3 to 4.1.2, and will get you a unlocked bootloader and cwm installed.
After you installed the V20A base firmware you go to the Second guide.
That guide will install Android 4.1.2 CLEAN and with no keyboard errors, its all working fine and i am using it to.

thank you too much but one last question if anything went wrong can i return my phone to the way before i updated it with this guide or there is no way to install again official firmware ?
If you want to keep your files you will need to copy them to your pc.
Use Titaniumbackup to update apps.
You can backup your contacts/music etc to your External sdcard.
And if there is something going wrong and you want to go back there are unbrick guides enough i will help you if anything will go wrong. But i did everything and its working very good.
If you need any help ask me.
Edit: List of all firmwares: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=12 this list contains all versions, so if anything is going wrong with v20a its easy to go back to V10L ore V10A/V10B

Hi Everyone,
I would like to flash a V20 baseband on my Australian P705 as I'd like to upgrade soon to one of the custom JB 4.3.
I am currently on Slimbean 4.1.2 with baseband V10e.
I don't want to brick my phone or have any issue with it by flashing the wrong baseband on it so could someone please advise which V20 baseband would be the one to use on my phone from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335273
Also, I was wondering if I flash a V20 baseband, could I go back to V10 if needed?
Thank you for your help!
And sorry, I would have posted the question on the thread above but I am a new member and restricted in the thread I can post in!
Anyone would have an idea? I just really don't want to use all signal!
Thanks!
I risked myself to install V20e baseband.
I had signal from my phone provider but in "About Phone", in the Baseband line I had "RRO" so not sure why or what it means.
I also installed Slimbean 4.3 which didn't seem really stable and I lost root privileges in the process and couldn't find a way to root a LG L7 using JB 4.3 so I went back on baseband V10 and Slimbean 4.1.2 until we get a more stable JB 4.3.
I'll keep you up to date if I find a working solution.

Yeah I knew that, it's just between JB 4.1 and JB 4.3, we need to upgrade the baseband from V10 to V20 and there are plenty of V10 versions and plenty of V20 versions with different letters (e.g. V20a, V20e,...) and I wasn't sure whether I could use any of them without any trouble or not.
I tried V20e temporarily on JB 4.3, I could still get signal from my phone provider but the baseband didn't seem to be properly recognized in "About Phone".

Hey mate, any luck with this? I'm in the same boat as you, except I haven't tried any of the various v20's yet... I'm on v10e also, so logic says I should upgrade to v20e - but there even two of these - one says "PL" and the other for "GBR"... I'm with Vodafone AU and have no idea... I don't want to brick and am a little worried :/

Hey mate,
I think I upgraded for V20a but I can't remember. Baseband is just showing RRO in About Phone but it's working with Optus in Australia and overseas.
I remember I had to upgrade the Baseband first before upgrading Android otherwise it didn't work!
I am also using Slimbean 4.3 Beta 5.2.
It's working OK.
To be honest, don't bother, it's not worth it playing with custom ROMs!
At least not for the L7!
Battery life is even worse than out of the box (even with Greenify), features from newer versions of Android don't work because this phone is not compatible with them (I'm thinking of Photosphere which was the main reason I wanted to upgrade)
In my opinion it's just a waste of time! I'll try a custom ROM of KitKat when stable but if it just keeps getting worse on my L7, I'm just gonna go back to stock!

Thanks. I ended up trying the v20e (both of them) with Prime KitKat rom. I installed all this before I read your reply and all is good - except for the network reception. I'll go back and try the v20a now. This phone isn't my daily driver, just a mess about so I'm keen to try KitKat out on it while I wait for OTA on my Note 3. So far, other than the current mobile data issue, this Prime 4.4.2 rom seems pretty good Thanks again
Recently i bought my s4 its the 9505 version and on the device its unlocked but it has som crap software from France's network,on the phone the firmware installed is I9505XXUAME2 and its says there isnt a new update (kies and ota) but i think there must be a new update so am i right and wich is the latest update for the S4 s600?

Hi,
MH1 is the latest.
Do you want to upgrade?
Try THIS ROM
It is pre-rooted,de-bloated and does not affect your warranty.
i meant more a stock solution (odin,ota,kies) as i dont want to root for now,if im going too root im flashing then a GPE room for sure but for now until i get bored of TW il stick to stock so should i upgrade and is my firmware old?

The firmware linked is an ODIN flashable packagre, it is pre-rooted and is still stock official meaning you get OTA's, TW and all the stuff you get in an official rom...
ok i thought its old because its missing some features(semi transparent statusbar,yellow icon in about phone mine is blue,HDR recording,smart pause toggle,legebility in display options) and because my phone is from france's SFR network i thought ill flash the I9505XXUBMEA using odin?
so i did the update to I9505XXUBMGA_I9505OXXBMG3_I9505XXUBMGA but one question when i go in stock recovery it shows a android guy with an open chest and a red triangle and below it says No command. and with yellow letters
