trying to unroot my tablet back to stock. when i get into recovery to flash the stock rom, i get an error. unable to find package. what gives?

the error is (ro.bootloader) now im stuck in bootloop. neat.

full error message: assert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader") == "P7100BUKB7"

E:Error in /sdcard/hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] skeeter123:
first, the obvious: where did you put it?

Next, google "galaxy unroot tab to stock". Look for the youtube video by zedomax (or close to that wording) as to how to unroot. I'm not at my computer right now so I can be a lot more help.

Good Luck!

Nicely BAMF'D Forever!

Aha! Had a very similar issue! Use the ota zip file that is referenced in the video. Follow it to the letter with odin...

Keep us posted my friend..

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] happyhourtx:
followed to the letter. still no luck. tried 7 times. same result.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] skeeter123:
well, crap. If I recall, I was in the wrong bootloader screen or the downloading screen.... I do know it was really easy to mess it up...

Do you still have root? Still bootloop if you try to let it just boot? ( I apologize if my questions seem basic) it's probably something very simple....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] happyhourtx:
still rooted. no more boot loop. ive re-downloaded the zip file. same result. what am i missing??
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] skeeter123:
I'm back at my pc. Do you have a webcam that you can point at your tab? PM me
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] happyhourtx:
well. i was able to re-flash the overcome ROM. so at least i have that. going to try and flash the latest overcome, then try to once agaon flash back to stock.

Hi, I am a new user of Galaxy tab though.

I see there are some nice themes that I want to install.

The installation part seems easy.

[Download the zip to sd card, use CMW to install it, reboot and done]

But what should I do if I want to un-install the theme? Thanks!

Scare that I bricked my Tab
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] FillTheVoid:
Make sure that when installing themes they they are made for the ROM you are running.

To "uninstall..."

Flash a nandroid backup you made before applying the theme OR

Reflash the ROM you are running without a wipe.

Hey Guys

I'm currently searching for a STOCK honeycomb ROM, but I'm not very successfull. I don't wan't the TouchWix UI, just the stock experience. Is there anything out there? 3.1 would be nice...

downloading Bonasai 0.1.5 right now, but that seems kinda old.

I'm not very happy with my tab at the moment, its just too slow and unresponsive, even with the new OC kernel :/ Any suggestions?

i'm sorry, where do i find the link for Stockretail.tar.md5? i've combed the OP and can't find it

also, is it just me or is the stock US rom (wifi only) quite different from the stock rom for 10.1 purchased in Canada?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] lgsshedden:
yes it is, you need to use the rom for the 3G plus wifi GT-p7500: check the Team Overcome rom which will aloow you to re-stock and install the latest KI1 firmware from Europe and then root and install the Team Overcome rom.

it is still early days for the developers and many of the earlier roms were based on KME which the Rogers 4G model never had as it was only released after the update to HC 3.1 and the concurrent shift in firmware.

I have no idea what the default firmware version on the Rogers 4G model is, as I soft bricked my Tablet first day trying to weave through these options, getting it wrong and then having to ressuce the system using Team Overcome.

So, if you have not yet flashed, satisfy my curiosity and post the firmware that is the default and then do a nandroid backup before you start (again, another rookie error on my part). Anyways, always good to learn through trial and errror.

Tried several different roms, only to find that the variant we have is not as flexible with some of the roms posted, especially watch for the "wifi only" signifier that does not apply to the Rogers 4g model and anything KME -- again, does not apply.

p7500ruxkh4

Ok here it is,

Im reading and reading about the rooting.

I tryed to synch my tab with kies to root my tab following this THREAD but it doesnt work

Someone suggested me to check here instead

I have a p7500 16gb 4G(well in fact 3G++) and wi-fi (p7500ruxkh4)

Im in canada (quebec province) and am with rogers

data plan, locked sim

honeycomb 3.1

kernel is 2.6.36.3

Now i want to use some apps like titanium backup and some others that need a rooted tab and thats it. I dont want to change kernel or rom or whatever else.

In this thread, there is 2 P7500 rooting method, one for the 3G and one for the 4G.

On my box and in my "task bar" its says 4G but for what i know, its more 3G++ than real 4G,

So WICH one of the tuto do i follow ?

Also, at http://www.samfirmware.com/ i cant find the stock firmware for my p7500ruxkh4

Now about CMW and Odin, since i just want to root, do i have to dl thoses programs ?

Also in the UNROOT tutorial, you guys talk about the filesfordummies, but for what i read, this file is for the p7510 and not for my p7500 right?

So if i want to UNROOT my P7500, what is the proper steps to follow ?

I know, theses are probably noob questions but after searching on the net, i think i should ask you guys first instead of trying and brick my tab.

Thanks in advance for your help

Can't flash stock rom. I'm looking to sell my tab since i got the 8.9 and I want to put it back to stock.

I'm trying to flash the file call hc-3.1 ota Full_Sam_Tab_10.1 and it's not flashing. Anyone have advice.

I have the us wifi only version..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] kmmxracer:
Is this zip file even the US version? There is no indication. Another member said he flashed it and it ended up being the European version.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Broken:
Agreed, flashed and kies will not update. Really want a STOCK US ODIN OR CWM.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] AceTrader:
The ROM in the OP which is mentioned as US Stock ROM is not Retail version. It is for I/O tabs. So if you flash that you wont be getting the update.

If you want a Nandroid backup of UEKME you can download it from here:

I just use stock rom and use root just for titanium. Can someone provide this file or give me instructions on how to edit the existing zip if possible? Thanks.

sent from my CM7 nokia 3210
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] ysr84:
Ok from my little experience....

Root your phone using the 3G method only put the root file in your tab folder and using the recovery mode flash it....

You will get rooted... Now you can unlock it and do titanium backup and stuff....

Also, make sure before making any changes do a backup using CMW...

I have no idea which ROM is compatible With these tabs.

Don’t bother doing anything else or anything to do with the P7510…

And remember if my directions helped you out… Press the thanks buttons…

wtf no recovery mode

I have a google io edition tablet. A long while ago, i was getting funky boot loops into some sort of recovery mode. i'd get some text in the top right, which would display for a while, then reboot right back into it.

Apparently i installed the wrong thing to fix it because now when i try to boot into recovery i only see a USB symbol and the download mode option. I do not see the recovery mode option.

When i select the USB symbol, i get the following text in the top left corner:

Fastboot USB download protocol
Bootloader Version: Unknown
Baseband Version : %s
Serial Number : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Lock State: UNLOCKED

I tried the rooting steps here and via nvflash, but cant get into a recovery mode to install the zip.

Otherwise the tablet is working fine, just no root.

How can i get a recovery mode on this thing?

tia,

dan

EDIT: I should also add that I've tried to (re)install stock recovery and cwm via odin. I always see "success", but still no luck. Also adb reboot recovery just reboots. No recovery.

Maybe a n00b question,

Is it possible to make a nandroid backup with CWM without root?

Reason why i ask this is because i want to have a backup of my original stock rom without root.

I can download the a stockrom but i don't know if that will change my CSC code?

Or does this rom has multi csc?

The stock rom i downloaded is:

P7500XWKG9_P7500XXKG7_P7500OXXKG3

So when i flash CWM with odin can i create a nandroid backup???

At the moment i have stock 3.1 on my TAB.

Please see attachments
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] AceTrader:
Yes, you can create a nandroid with CWM without rooting the tab.

It is always a good practice to have the nandroid taken before you modify anything.

Quoting from BarryH_GEG on 31st October 2011, 05:16 PM in this thread "http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1327257"...... "AT&T markets HSPA+ as "4G." Rogers does the same thing. So it's officially a 3G Tab capable of 21MB down on a HSPA+ network. Rogers and AT&T call that 4G the rest of the world calls it 3G or 3G+. I'm using a phone SIM in my 3G UK Tab on AT&T and get 8MB down in fake-4G (the only real 4G is LTE) cities"

I was so glad I used CWM to make a backup before I tried this 4G root method. I got a BLack boot screen and had to reflash CWM with ODIN so I could recover.

I've downloaded a stock ROM from samfirmware but this is a tar and tars don't show up in CWM. So, I've put the tar into a zip, and tried putting the contents of the tar into a zip as well as the contents of the tar and rar (boot.img, bootloader.bin etc etc) into a zip and CWM fails to install the ROM.

Is there a step that I need to carry out to create a zip of a stock ROM from samfirmware?
