Cannot update Galaxy Tab !

This morning connected my Galaxy Tab to KIES and it prompted that there is an update !!
it took ages to download its binary files then finally after it got done, it gave me a decryption error !!
I have changed my sales code to gain access to market, could this be the problem or do i redownload the files !!
Isn't there a way to UPGRADE fw via OTA? or placing update.zip in root of sd nd flashing from recovery? (similar to HTC devices)
how do I upgrade to the latest version? help please
Cheers
Jackie
PS: Please find attached the firmware code : current and new !

Are you UK based Jackie? Just guessing as you said cheers! I've seen nothing this morning though have read there was an Android Market update which I had already downloaded and applied, maybe why I'm seeing no update.

no I'm based in UAE !! that's just teh way I speak !!

Ah right, nice to read it all the same, Cheers!

so anyone has any idea?

Jackie,
I don't bother with Kies.... It put my SGS in a right mess and couldn't be used until I sorted it out with another ROM and a different PC software upgrader by the name of Odin.
Your best bet is to go on over to samfirmware.com and check out the latest ROM's available.
I'm sending you also a link which although was written for the SGS and Froyo it's still relevant for ROM files for the Tab and how to use Odin.
See here:- How to use Odin to Upgrade the SGS to Froyo

First, what ROM version do you currently have installed?
Next, look at the list of ROM's available see here.
You need to find out if you are on a European, Asian, Arabic, etc ROM and decide if you want to stay on that list or opt to another nation list.
For European lists JMA is the latest. There's a topic on JMA here.

PDA: P1000JPJJ2
Phone: P1000JXJJ1
CSC: P1000OJPJJ3
is what is being reported on *#1234# and samfirmware says this is the Arabic firmware and the latest for Arabic is P1000JVJL1 December 2010, not that I'm interested in any of the region specific apps - just wondering what has been fixed in these firmwares and also if flashing would delete all my data (I'm guessing it would)
I don't mind flashing a European firmware too, so which would be best?
PS: Tab is currently rooted with OCLF set ! =)
Cheers

Hi may i ask if you do firmware update does the tab have to be sim free not lock to a network as im on t-mobile uk, i dont want to brick my tab
thanks

It should not delete any data.
The browser and camera have been improved.
The browser now scrolls smoother.
The camera focus's much better.
No idea what other improvements have been made.
It does not really matter which firmware you wish to use BUT bear in mind a number of users who have performed a lagfix have had issues in upgrading the ROM.
You MUST ensure you remove any lagfix applied otherwise you stand a good chance in bricking the phone.
Also, ensure you have access to the Recovery and download mode.
You will need this if you 'brick' the phone.

You need someone who is on a T-Mobile locked phone to answer this. I have heard of users on carrier networks who have run into issues.
Basically, unless you have a sound knowledge in what you are doing I would not attempt it until you get good solid advice.

seems like a long procedure, I'll hold off until i'm done with my exams....
also should I try KIES again? just in case ?? o.0

You can try but I'd still make sure you have access to recovery and download first, just in case anything goes wrong.

Aight !! thanks a bunch !! will do

Got a similar problem... info says its P1000XXJID, valid euro firmware... Bought the tab in Hungary (Middle of europe), carrier free, and after looking at samfirmware.com's ROM list I was wondering about the updates.
Kies tells me this version can't be updated...
Can anyone help me with this problem?

Many, Many of us here in UK are having problems and are unsuccessful when trying to update/upgrade using Kies.
Hopefully Kies will get fixed properly to allow us all to use it.

Even ActiveSync was better... at least it didn't offer the SW update...

to trick kies to update u could use kies registry patcher. I have sucsessfully updated via kies from jj3 -> jj7 (when no updates was availible)
read thru this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=863386
Use the info from check fus and paste it in registry patcher, reboot pc - start kies - connect phone - something should happen.

[Q] [4.4.2] Sound Not Working

Hi All,
I've just updated my Note 3 (9005) to KitKat 4.4.2.
Since updating everything is working except the sound.
In fact whenever a sound might play the phone hangs for a second.
Im certain ive flashed everything correctly, tried multiple ROM's but nothing fixes it.
Anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: After double checking, the modem/baseband file doesnt appear to have worked? currently showing MI6, what can i do to update it?
EDIT 2: After looking into it, this may be causing my issues....if anyone has the most up to date baseband for O2 UK then could they please send it?

Sammobile has the latest O2 firmware you can grab it from there.. Have you been able to flash back to 4.3 then?

OK, ive downloaded the latest O2 update.
This is in 1 single file, not the 4 that the KitKat update came in.
Can anyone tell me how to flash just the CP/Modem/Baseband from this one file??
EDIT: Flashed Modem.bin file through ODIN, flash completed successfully, but baseband still stuck at XXUBMI6, please can anyone tell me why this wont update?

It could be that O2 have locked your handset? Only thing I can think of, off the top of my head... you can try the leaked firmware (link in my signature, if needed again) - it has the 4 files. Flash only the Bootloader, then the ROM itself and see. Note of warning, playing with bootloaders is a risky game, and you can brick very easy if it goes wrong.
EDIT: Yes the official XEO is 1 file not 4 files like the leak

Thanks for the speedy reply.
I've tried updating to 4.4 and that's how the sound stopped working?
So my bootloader has already been updated. Don't know how to check though?
Do baseband/modem/cp need to be updated sequentially? e.g. MI6-->MI7 etc.
Thank again for all the help!

The baseband doesn't need updated sequentially no, you can go from MI to MK if you choose. It's probably O2's basband.
Can you dial *#1234# into your keypad and post the results ?

Yup it's O2's baseband, - remind me again, you have root?
From what I can see, O2 are up to MJ in terms of baseband - Sooo we need to find you an up to date baseband to flash (modem basically) - Now modems can be tricky if you get it wrong or get the wrong one. Have a look around and see if we can find you a more up to date one.
You could (not saying you should) unlock your phone and then use the NA2 baseband which I currently use (I am also on O2 but with an unlocked handset) - Not 100% on Sim unlocking so you'd have to have a nose around and see what's what.

Also need to Note, Sound issue may indeed be hardware based, but we will see soon enough.

I thought as much TBH.
I am rooted, i've downloded the latest O2 update and tried to flash the firmware but it didnt take, im still stuck at MI6.
I'll see what i can do re: unlocking the phone.
If you can find a more updated Baseband from O2 i would be eternally grateful!
Thanks,

Upgrading from Android 4.3 to 4.4.. How to?

Hi,
Are you talking about upgrade from stock 4.3 to stock 4.4.2? if so there is no need to root , just go to Sammobile.com find the rigght firmware and flash it ( Odin)

Thanks!
On SAM Mobile now.
How do i find out which country the phone belongs to along with knowing the correct firmware to get?
I should note i got the phone from Australia, however i cannot see Australia in the firmware list for GT-I9505.
Thanks
Just an update.
Not sure if its possible to flash to 4.4 because I've just been on SAMMobile.
Clicked on FIRMWARE
Then clicked Check Your Firmware.
Which i did. The phone is unlocked so i just chose vodafone.
Then it directs me to a 2013 update which is android 4.3.
So does that mean i can't get one for 4.4？

Hi mate ,
For Australia seems like the newest firmware is 4. 3 but you can flash a firmware from other " similar" countries like UK , check other countries that you may consider closer to yours
for example
BTU means unbranded
Model: GT-I9505
Model name: GALAXY S4 LTE
Country: United Kingdom
Version: Android 4.4.2
Changelist: 481100
Build date: Fri, 14 Feb 2014 03:15:30 +0000
Product Code: BTU
PDA: I9505XXUFNB9
CSC: I9505BTUFNE1
MODEM: I9505XXUFNB9
CSC: I9505BTUFNE1
Language is similar and if the modem gives you problems ( it should not) you can always flash ( odin) another the only thing you may lose would be maybe any specific carrier service that is on your current carrier rom you have in your phone and your CSC will be from UK ( in this case)

You can try installing Kies 3 Connecting your phone and see if it promotes an Update

Ok guys thank you.
So if i were to get the latest UK one. How likely is it my sim would still work in it?
I currently use vodafone in AU and uk also has vodafone. So would i be better off getting a vodafone uk firmware or just an unlocked one?
Cos the s4 is actually unlocked already.
If you could perhaps link me to the correct firmware id really appreciate it. I just really dont wanna screw this up.
Any info you require i can give you. I know for sure it is a GT-I9505 and that it was purchased unlocked in australia.
Thank you.

Hi,
Sim will work ok
Your choice vodafone or unbranded should be fine ( unbranded is newer) , unbranded ( no carrier stuff on it) has nothing to do with network lock
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=30963 (vodafone)
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=31852 ( unbranded)
back up your app , data , contacts , pictures , music and use this app to make a backup of your EFS folder ( there is your imei info) just in case

Thanks so much for that! Awesome.
And to update it with the uk firmware, do i just refer to this guide?

hi
they basically say the same ...... there is only one way to flash stock , in your case you do not need to flash the PIT file
from sammobile:
Instructions
Extract (unzip) the firmware file
Download Odin v3.09
Extract Odin zip-file
Open Odin v3.09
Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
Add the firmware file to AP / PDA
Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
Click the start button, sit back and wait a few minutes

Ok thats everything i need thanks so much.
Just one last question.. Can this process be done using a mac or am i better off using an XP based machine?
Thanks guys

Hi ,
Odin is windows based , it should work in a XP machine as long as the samsung usb drivers are updated

Ok cool.
I will use an XP based machine.
Ok so i now have odin and i now have the 1.54GB firmware package.
I can do the update as per the instructions.
But you suggested getting the latest USB Drivers for my device...
How would I find these drivers?
Is it just a matter of having the latest Kies right??
Thank you.

Can i install 935F stock rom on 935FD Device.

hello, i am from India. I recently bought a new Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Duos. FEW DAYS AGO (ABOUT 2-3 DAYS) i updated it to latest version over OTA. I tried to root it by CF Auto root but something broke and it transferred my device in bootloop so i downloaded and flashed a stock rom G935FXXU1APB6_G935FOLB1APB6_XSP_FULL using Odin. My device started but i figured out that the rom is Singaporian version and its a March upgrade and i could not update it also. I am also having wifi connectivity issues. My old rom was perfect. It was preinstalled by Company. Please help me or please give me a link of my model's official stock rom rather than Sammobile ( i tried sammobile but my connection refuses and also speed too low )
UPDATE: Also my carrier works.......

Download and install USB drivers for Samsung Galaxy S7 edge in your computer.
Make sure to take backup of any important files on your smartphone.
Enable USB debugging option by pressing Menu > Settings > Applications. Navigate and tap on Developer Options to ensure that USB Debugging is enabled.
Ensure that your Galaxy S7 edge carries more than 70% of charge.
Highly Credible Leak Points At Early Samsung Galaxy S7 Launch Date
Unzip Odin on your computer and install it.
Unzip firmware zip file in the same folder as Odin.
Switch your Samsung Galaxy S7 edge off and boot it in Download mode: press and hold Volume Down and Power together and then press the Home key. OR, check how to enter Download Mode.
Open Odin and connect your smartphone with your computer. When connected successfully, one of the ID:COM boxes will turn yellow with the COM port number after a while. (In case you don’t get it, try another USB port. If that doesn’t help either, then re-install USB drivers).
On your Odin, select files:
Click on AP and select file with AP in its name.
Click on CP and select file with MODEM in its name – ignore if you didn’t get any such file.
Click on CSC and select file with CSC in its name – ignore if you didn’t get any such file.
Click on PIT and select the. pit file – ignore if you didn’t get any such file.
Click on BL and select file with BL in its name – ignore if there is no such file.
Make sure to check Auto Reboot and F.Rest Time. Check Re-Partition only if you selected the. pit file.
Click on Start to initiate the update process.
When Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update installation is successfully completed, you will get a PASS message.
I don't know if factory reset is necessary after flash, but I did it, just in case. I attached Odin which I used.

Unless you know what you are doing and about files source/files you are flashing, then not much.. but if you are not sure, then Smart Switch can download official f/w for your specific model & flash it for you.. simplest, no brainer to recover to official f/w.

Hi
I have G935FD device, which I recently bought (the second hand one).
I notice that I have issue with GPRS data transfer... it looks like, from time to time when GPRS is active SMS sending is not possible any more (up to next power OFF of device) .
At that time I'm able to see only one GPRS range indicator.
I'm able to receive calls from both SIM cards.
I did not check am I able to call from both of them.
According to my google investigations issue is pressent in Android 6.0, which I have right now.

Hi
Below information for anyone who have the same issue as I.
I download the newest official ROM for Android 7.0 for Poland (G935FXXS1DQHI).
I used ROM for single sim, not dual sim.
Since that I don't have any issue with SMS or GPRS any more.
MMI codes started to work back.
I still have dual sim .
Simple , now it works better !!

I got a used GT-935T phone very recently in India, which was still running android 6.0. On browsing these forums, I found out that we could flash stock rom on it without rooting, so I did so using Odin. I flashed the stock rom of Android 7.0 for t-mobile 935T, which was what my phone was supposed to be.
On further browsing, I also discovered, that we could flash any stock rom on the phone, irrespective of the region. So I decided to download the latest stock rom for India 935fd. I did so, but whenever I'm trying to flash it using Odin, I'm getting an error - repartition failed.
I've not checkd the repartition option.
can someone help me?

OTA android 7 update for g935fd not working

Hey guys,
The OTA update for android 7 has come up in my s7 edge duos. I have tried downloading it twice........it gets to 100% and says there an error and that it's the wrong version.
Not sure what to do.........any ideas

Download and flash the rom through odin.
Did you ever flash a different rom? Which brand is respectively CSC has your phone?

Never flashed another rom........bought the phone off amazon.com............it's zn international version, but looks like the supplier got them from UAE.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the supplier may have gotten from UAE but the csc may not be from there.
you can try downloading the Rom from samfirmware and flashing that way.

Thanx for the reply guys, how can I find out the CSC on the phone? Also if I flash with odin, Will that erase all the data on the phone? And will it trip the knox?
Why is it that the update doesn't work? How come the software on my phone doesn't match the update it's downloading? Is it something the supplier/seller has done to the phone? Like modify the software?
Thanx guys

Install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ and you get all necessary information.
If you flash with Odin Know won't be triggered. You can keep your data with the three following requirements:
- The firmware you flash must have the CSC included you use at the moment.
- You need to use HOME_CSC file instead of CSC file.
- You may not tick re-partition.
Keep in mind to only flash firmwares designed for the Exynos variant.
Sellers on Amazon sometimes get phones from a different market and flash then a firmware fitting your market. This is rather a replacement than a modification (since the whole system is still official) and Knox is not triggered. However, one effect is that OTA may not work or gives "phantom" update notices. There's no restriction aside of that and you can just use Odin to remain updated.
You can post screens from all pages of the app I mentioned and we can see what's going on.

Hey Andiling, really appreciate your help pal. Here are some pictures you requested. Thank you
