Very disappointedof my GT-P5110

So..i buy for my wife brand new Samsung galaxy tab 2 10" and after 2 weeks of use problems shows up
1. my home button stop working ...i said i can leave with that i tap more often back back button !
2. my lock screen disappear .... when i press power button my last page comes up ....i restart 2-3 times nothing ....i check if lock-screen it's enable and the slide option it's on.
i have the stock ICS 4.0.4 i didn't do any upgrade or something similar.
i see a loot of peoples talk about JB 4.2.2 why my tablet don't find any updates ?
i read about update to some rom....but there so many things to do : new soft like odin, superuser, su, clock ...etc i'am afraid not to damage the device..but most off all my wife will kill me !
and the big question it's can i do something to fix it?

It's 2 weeks old man, take it back under warranty

It seems that your device's firmware has bugs so try to update it to official 4.1.2 , it will solve your problem and also note that there is no official 4.2.2 fw released or leaked for 51xx

Surely(if your device has an update in your region or country),update through OTA in update options found in settings--->about device---->software update or otherwise download a rom from sammobile and flash through Odin

The first line is saying your device is tab 2 10.1
second is explaining which variant your device is
Third is saying the android version which your device is running(it's ICS)
Amd the last line is saying about the kernal version,kernal build date , kernal build time etc...

which one?
so ...i go to sammobile and look for new firmware for my gt-p5110...the problem is there are like 7 country which one to use?
i will try to use kies after i solve my MTP driver problem !

No don't, there is a odin flash counter which if shows unofficial with flash count avoids your warranty

Just do a hard reset in settings. Backup and and recovery or something like tjat.
My tab was ok with ICS. But as told before have you tried to update via settings over the air?

MDH8 FW corrupted my sound

Well, I already have read that the last FW from samsung done troubles with locked bootloader and sound problems. I tried today flashing MDH8 rom like a stupid asshole. Then I decided to go back to the previous one and at the end I succsessfully reverted back to Omega MH1 but the problem is that All my sounds are gone.. Alarm, music. notifications nothing makes a sound..
Has any body also had it?
What can I do to solve that? Is it possible to solve it for now? Thanks.
Edit: guess Ill have to flash Stock MGG or MH8 trough Odin and then pray to god..

Any body?

It's safe. I was on Stock MH8 and rooted using latest CF-Auto Root and then flashed CWM and installed CM10.2, no troubles at all.
However I heard that once you flash a custom ROM it triggers flash counter and you can't go back to Stock ROM again. Don't know if it's true but another member mentioned it in another thread.
It's probably worth sticking with stock until we know more about it.

Original firmware would restore the stock kernel. Are you sure you're flashing the correct firmware? Flash a 4.3 firmware, not 4.2.2 (via Odin)

[Q] Rogers i337m - No Wifi after multiple flashes. Newbie :(

Hi All,
I tried unsuccessfully to root my i337M from Rogers (Canada). After multiple tries using Odin and finally trying to return it to stock, I now have no wifi (won't turn on) nor any sound.
I assume that the modem (fw) is not the same now after multiple flashing as the ROM that I flashed. I have been searching and have not found a way to remedy the situation.
Is there anyone who can refer me to the exact steps that I need to take in my situation?
Thanks in advance
Larry

Can you boot it into Recovery mode? If so do a factory reset and see if that cures it. If not, grab official files from sammobile.Then use Odin to flash it ( I have the same phone with Fido )http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-I337M/RWC/
Then see how it works as that should fix it regardless
---------- Post added at 04:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 AM ----------
Then use TowelRoot to root it ( one click and no Knox 0x1 problems )

Thanks Harry,
I did it, thanks. I'm selling the S4 and was worried I semi-bricked it
Thanks again,
Larry

Looking to go back to stock Rogers as well... I downloaded an NI2 firmware from SamMobile and flashed with ODIN. Now I have no WIFI (can't enable it), and I see this is pretty common and will be trying a few things. However the fix for this seems to vary for everyone.
I am downloading an MK6 firmware now as this is what I think was on there when I bought it a long time ago and will try that. Is there a confirmed fix for this?

I found flashing another kernel did the trick, I flashed talexop and it works perfectly now.

Can we Downgrade Galaxy A5 from Lollipop to KitKat?

I'm looking forward to upgrade my A5 to russian Lollipop via Odin, the problem is if one day for some reason I need to downgrade back to KitKat, is it possible to downgrade? I mean if it is possible then does this recommended (to downgrade)? is there any consequences of this (like loosing warranty, bricked, etc)?

No, i would not recommend to try to downgrade. Several guys including me have hardbricked their device doing so.

also i hard bricked my device after downgrading.so you better dont do it

Be a Man and update it and downgrade it as much as u woold like me; but be smart and follow strictly the instructions. Sometimes, u will face problems that s how we learn to solve em. u ll need luck courage and a mind

I had already said in another post that this phone, more than others, has been a bit "tricky" and problematic.
also because of what has happened to others, do not. not that brick is sure, but is 70%
otherwise, try the new deodex http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/deodex-deodex-thread-samsung-galaxy-a3-t3174124

If you want to downgrade back to kitkat, you need to factory reset you're device including internal storage before you flash 4.4.4, if you encounter issues with no imei/baseband unknown. You will have to flash again.

I disagree. I downgraded both my A3 and A5 from 5.0.2 to 4.4.4 since that the damn lollipop is ubber laggy and keeps on freezing it.
Before downgrading make sure that you do a clear dalvik then wipe cache then go to odin mode flash it twice. The first flash even if its successful will boot loop your device. The 2nd flash will work like a charm. Mine is doing fine again.

hello
your phone doesn’t get bricked unless you try to “wipe data/factory reset” in ClockworkMod Recovery while trying to install a new ROM.

Ehm.... what the hell are you talking about ? Rooting and downgrading firmware is something totaly different.
I'm on the french 5.0.2. lollipop firmware at this moment, i downgraded a few times before from this lollipop firmware to KK (simply because root is only possible on KK, but then i find myself wanting lollipop again).
You want me to explain ? Well its simply firing up Odin and flash the firmware. Very simple. But this in on the SM-700F, not sure if its different on A3 or A5.

You tell me you was on 5.0.2 and you succeed to downgrade to 4.4.4 without brick, only with Odin and original 4.4.4 firmware ? I'm on french 5.0.2 and have SM-A700F too. ..

Yes, i told you that. And it works perfectly. Maybe you should try it yourself if you want to downgrade. Its very hard to brick a device with original firmware. You have to be a total idiot to do that like flashing firmware from another device or something.

But you have done that when the 5..0.2 was available on your country ?

Normally when an OTA or update is available officially it's impossible to return back to an old version

I only recieved a small OTA on KK. Lollipop not available in my country.

Ah OK I see. 5.0.2 is available here in France and I have done it OTA. So for me it's impossible to go back to 4.4.4.
