The new US 3.2 ROM seems fine once it's installed properly. The problems people had were from a corrupt OTA update process. If you're using Odin after a bad install, you may as well use the new 3.2 ROM. The link to it is here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1345995

If Samsung releases an even newer update, you'd still be able to receive it via Kies as there are people out there already using it successfully so they can't pretend it never existed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Hawk777th:
My Tab is not rooted can I still use Odin to flash this?

Seems they have taken the update off of Kies.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gbrethen:
Samsung response

"We are working on a resolution and will provide more information shortly. In the interim we have chosen to discontinue availability of the update."

It should be available shortly...according to Samsung.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
You don't have to root to use Odin and once on a working correct ROM you can go back to Kies or OTA for all future updates.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jastop:
Took the plunge after I got wacked by the update issue

My tab was hosed after trying to do the update while connected to WiFi using a DHCP assigned address.

Somewhat hesitantly I decided to take the plunge into the ROM world, first by flashing the captured OTA, then by going to a custom ROM.

If your here your probably smart enough to do it, as long as you follow the directions. The guide at p7510.teamovercome.net is one of the guides that are easy to follow. You can use it even if you choose a different ROM.

Do your backups, first with Titanium, then after you have the custom recovery installed, with nandroid, and you'll be good to go.

The overcome ROM seemed really good. But I finally settled on the Task650 ROM that among other things fixes the browser bookmark sync issue that was driving me nuts.

Thanks everyone for contributing to the site and making it my tab again.

I wish I had done this a month ago.

BarryH_GEG, i have downloaded the new 3.2 firmware from this link http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1345995

but it doesn't include pit file, only PDA file. Do I need the pit file or just not check the Re-Partition and simply put theTAB into download mode and flash this firmware to the corrupted "zombie" Tab or do I need the pit file? Your help here is awesome, I am "newbie" and scared to do this but I can't afford to send the TAB for repair and wait 14 days, I am leaving for trip this Sunday and need TAB to be working.

Thank you for help
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Broken:
Use this pit file
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] carlitos66:
Hi Broken, and BarryH, and others who helped with this thread, thank you very much for all the help, I did it. I am now running 3.2 with no wi fi problems. Last question, I still don't have any live wallpapers and the nice deep blue honeycomb home screen is also missing. Did Samsung deliberatelly removed it or can I get it somewhere else?

Thank guys one more time

Does that PIT file work on the 16gig Tablet?

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 AM ----------

Ok, I flashed the 3.2 using ODIN, I didn't use PIT file. All seems successful, but what's new? Looks the same.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] animatechnica:
the names says 16G_32G
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nandihno:
So if it ask you for the password which it will if you come from odin simply get into recovery and wipe all then reboot

Note rooting using this new recovery 3e works the same ;-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
That's part of the fun. Samsung doesn't release change logs so we have to figure out what's new, different, or gone.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] animatechnica:
Snappier performance, app zoom so phone size apps can enlarge to fill tablet, allshare enabled, hw accelerated ui and browser...netflix plays smoother etc...

Battery life is also excellent lots better than 3.1 roms

Kies wi-fi not connecting ?

Anybody able to connect with Kies wi-fi since the update ?

My TAB was one of those that aborted mid-OTA and I have since flashed the update with Odin without repartitioning. Just wondering if it is just me or if everyone has a problem.

What I am seeing is that I start Kies wi-fi on the device - It detects Kies on my laptop. I click connect, and get the Accept Connection ? question on my laptop. When I click Yes on the laptop, the TAB goes into "You can now sync" state - but I get an error popup on the laptop saying "No SIM card detected - sync disabled" or something similar. Kies just sits there with the Connecting spinner turning endlessly.

This worked fine prior to the 3.2 update

Edit: I did also allow Kies to update itself a day or 32 before the 3.2 update hit - so it could be a Kies issue on the laptop too.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] marcchelala:
Actually they did mention something on their website. AllShare and DLNA stuff, DivX capability, zoom apps made for smartphones. But that was all...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Nacho Zits:
Can you link me to this info ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jojo_1:
I've got 16GB US version of galaxy and sadly received OTA. No I'm trying to reflash 3.2.

I'va got problem with going into download mode.

I've tried pressing volume-down + power in all sort of combinations, but managed only to switch on/off my tab. I couldn't get download mode icon. I see only Samsung logo and screen turning off/on.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

SOLVED sorry to bother
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] marcchelala:
Actually, since samsung pulled the OTA the changelog was also taken offline :-$

bricked Galaxy in africa

hi all i bought a 10.1 in states on a business trip and on using this week received a message saying upgrade available to 3.2 you all know what happened next ! i was at my wits end trying to work out how to fix till i stumbled across you guys i downloaded the ODIN etc and then worried should i shouldn't i attempt to do it yesterday took the plunge and it worked ! and now up and running better than before a very sincere THANK YOU TO YOU ALL :D ! because in Kenya would of been stuffed without you !

---------- Post added at 08:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------

thanks pal worked!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nikosal:
Same issues here, updated OTA, wifi not working etc.

But I don't believe we have to send the tab to them: in a live chat, a technician told me they are working on a fix (many other users have reported the same). They (samsung) are absolutely vague though on a schedule.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nandihno:
Infact the US 3.2 is excellent..there are no issues..

Samsung bug lies in the delivery of the rom..and not in the rom itself.

So all of you should just use odin and flash away.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dregus311:
Task I can't ever post in the dev forum cause I haven't posted 10 times yet. But your ROM's are rockin! Keep up the good work, and hopefully soon I will be able to post some helpful post in the dev forum. I have found little things here and there pretty quickly after loading your ROM's, but just haven't been able to post to the forum to inform you. Once again man your latest ROM is awesome (Galaxy), I am hoping that Pershoot or someone else will be able to release a kernel for it. Pershoots current kernel worked great with exception of the Auto rotate issue.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Hawk777th:
So has the update been re-released yet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
A little dramatic, no? Unfortunately, stuff like this happens to every manufacturer. It's happened to me with HTC, LG, and Motorola. The update was only available for a day so we don't know how many people were effected. And it only effected those that updated OTA and it was only the U.S. update that had the problem. You chose to buy a U.S. product for use in Europe so sending it back here for service sucks but it's the price you pay. I have a UK SGS2 and P7500 that I'll have to send to the UK if they need service. I can't ***** at Samsung because I knew that when I bought them. And they're not going to reimburse you for shipping as you're using a product outside its intended country of sale. They might also charge you for return shipping.

If you follow the instructions for using Odin you can restore your Tab without sending it in. There were a lot of novices that were apprehensive but were able to do it without issue.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] FC360:
I bet if you sent it to Samsung UK they would fix it anyway, they just like being awkward. I'm starting to get annoyed with this update, it's been released and has been floating around for a few days now but has caused some wifi problems which is stopping me from updating. It seems to be taking them quite a long time to fix the problem and let people know that's its all fixed and is now safe to download the update, including the fact ppl who have already updated and can't connect to wifi have to connect it to a PC.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] loftwyr:
Are you sure that was a person and not one of the tech bots they're using? The style seems like a bot to me.

It's a live agent picking from a list of canned responses (with some AI to suggest the most likely ones), to minimize the amount of free-text typing they have to do, and it helps them by suggesting conflict-reducing phrases. Pretty standard call-center app these days.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Lord Wayne:
After performing the upgrade, I noticed the auto rotation is noticeably slower response. Has anyone else experiencing the same problem? I am a complete newbie so, I may have done something wrong (besides not backup up all my apps)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
My Tab just told me there was an update to 3.2 available. Of course, now I'm afraid to take a chance after the last one caused so many problems for people.

Does anyone know anyone about this new version? It wasn't available for me before this morning.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nandihno:
Yes that's what i said on another thread

It said there's an update but I will seek to download the Odin file instead and compare

I have kmm rooted yet it said there's an upgrade

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19587302
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
Just like last update (3.1), it will be a new version (same saga as 3.2 update). For those already on KMM, you should receive a small download to update to the newer version. For those of us who are still on 3.1, it will be a 66MB download.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
But has anyone actually downloaded the new version yet without having any problems? I would hate to have a non-working Tab especially during the upcoming holiday weekend...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] foxbat121:
Just did. Took a looong time to finish the update process. It is KMM version.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] :
The new firmware can be downloaded from Samsung twitter.

http://twitter.com/#!/SamsungUpdates

What region is XAB?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ProximaC:
I saw there was an update available and to be safe I connected to KIES with a cable and let it do its thing. It's working perfectly well now. No WiFi problems or anything else.

I wasn't brave enough to let it download over the WiFi after seeing all the issues with last weeks update, but over KIES this one worked for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nikosal:
A few posts above, I served you with the full transcript of my yesterday chat with a Samsung technician, who instructed me to send my Tab to their Service Center to be "physically" examined and repaired, as the fix would never arrive OTA.

Well it seems that it arrived. Kies (on my mac) said there is a new firmware update, I did it through the cable (tab was still insisting no OTA update was available) and my tab seems to work ok (auto-rotation, wifi) being in 3.2.

I really hope this is end of story.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
I downloaded the update over wifi and so far have not had any issues. The update itself does take a LONG time to complete though. There were a few times I thought there were problems during the process because it stayed so long on a percentage.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nikosal:
I believe the firmware was over 300 MB, saw it on their tweeter site, although I did it through kies. The whole procedure took me something like 30 minutes.

Are we talking about the same thing?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
My update from 3.1 was just over 60Mb.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] biggiestuff:
So does the 3.2 update wipe out everything on the tab? Backup is highly recommended correct?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ansextra:
It didn't wipe out anything on mine. I'm still trying to figure out what has changed other than being able to run apps not optimized for large screens.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
From catastrophe to all-better in eight days. And I think we've all learned that what's said by minimum wage contact center agents should be taken with a grain of salt.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] drew999999:
First off... Thanks to everyone that posted info on how to get back to 3.2 through Odin. So I just hooked my 10.1 up to Kies (currently on KMM via odin) and saw that KMN was available. Is this the version that everyone else is getting today?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ken4G:
New update is released! Boy it sure takes a while to upgrade after it reboots. crosses fingers...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kh0annguyen:
Mine is rooted and the update failed. My tablet is unaffected. But it says I can't update. How do I update?

Edit: Update had to be done through Kies which had no problems. Just took a while. Lost the root though.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] unpuertomex:
I keep hearing the different time or estimates everyone has post on how long it took to upgrade their units I decided to actually time mine. It only took 12 minutes (see results below) via KIES and I was only rooted.

Time Spent On Upgrading Via KIES

From the KIES Firmware Upgrade Progress Bar

Start 6:58 - End 7:03

Actual upgrade (Big Android on the tab)

Start 7:03 - End 7:07

First Reboot to yellow installation screen

Start 7:07 - End 7:07

Pulsating Samsung logo

Start 7:07 - End 7:10

Android Lock screen

Start 7:10 - .15

Don't know why but the lock screen would let me in for about 30 seconds.

Total time to upgrade: 12 minutes. :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] flintdragon:
I just upgraded to KMM over the air without a hitch. Took a long time.

No KMN in sight though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] media_11:
so I downloaded and installed 3.2 OTA. My tab is rebooting. It has been stuck at this black bluish screen for about 35 minutes now. About 60MB data shouldn't take this long to install. How long does it take to reboot after install?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] unpuertomex:
Mine via KIES took 3 minutes...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] media_11:
I was going to use Kies but I find it very buddy. I don't like the fact that I need 2 different Kies. Kies for my tab and Kies mini for my samsung galaxy phone. WTF samsung...My tab is still stuck at rebooting screen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pcgeek86:
For me, Kies won't even connect to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 7510. It's really aggravating .... I've cleaned up all orphaned devices on my system, re-installed Intel USB drivers, etc.

I'm running Task650's ROM ... should I be able to update from that directly?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] media_11:
I am not sure If you can update directly from Task650. You should still be able to manually flash the update via clockwork. Its so frustrating . I am still waiting for my tab to reboot. I think its brick. Why the F samsung can't seem to get this update straight up? They can't even deliver 3.2 properly and we are expecting ICS?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Are you on the latest version of Kies?

http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/d..._mdl_cd=GT-P7500UWATUR&srchword=GT-P7500/AM32

Have you gone in to "Tools>Troubleshoot connection" to have Kies reinstall the Samsung drivers?

Are you running Kies as Administrator?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] media_11:
So It has been over an hour and my tab was still stuck at rebooting screen. I switched it off and tried to reboot it and it got stuck at reboot screen again. I am going to see if I can fix this via odin. Its going to erase all the data. What a mess. I should've kept my iPad 2.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] media_11:
After almost 3 hours trying to update to 3.2 and almost bricking my tab, I had to flash 3.0 via odin to recover it. Trying to flash 3.2 manually. Instead of going to 3.2 from 3.1, I am here sitting and using 3.0 haha. FML
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] linuxJockey:
I was also stuck at the boot screen. Then I remember a notification on Kies that said to unplug and plug back in at the end. I had already unplugged the USB, so I plugged it back in. Booted the rest of the way after that. Running smooth.

Just my $0.02, hope it helps.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pcgeek86:
Thanks for the suggestions.

1. Yes, I updated Kies to 2.1 last night. I was on 2.0 before that.

2. Yes, I've attempted to have it re-install the Samsung USB Drivers. I even went into device manager and killed the device and checked the "Delete driver software" checkbox.

3. Yes, running Kies as Administrator

Kies knows that the device has been plugged in, but it just sits there attempting to connect -- never actually does.

What are the directions on flashing 3.2 with Odin? Where is the download link for the KMN 3.2 firmware?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kbm25:
Windows XP issue?

Don't know if this helps, but I tried to update via Kies on a Windows XP machine and I kept getting an error during the download that closed Kies on the PC. I installed Kies on my other laptop running Windows 7 and had no problems updating.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pcgeek86:
Thanks, but I'm running Windows 7 64-bit already (have been for a few years). XP is all but completely dead to me; unfortunately I have to deal with it as a systems engineer, for work-related purposes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abialystok:
The Odin won't recognize my phone, (SGS I9000, if it wasn't obvious).

i've searched the site for threads that show the same problem but every time the respondents are talking about something called kies.

now, i don't have this thing on my computer, and from what i understand it's a program used to connect the phone to the computer through Wi-Fi, without a USB cable.

I, however, have no Wi-Fi in my room, therefore i'm using a USB cable. so, what do i need to do to make the Odin recognize my phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Woolf:
Kies. Go to Samsung site and download. It is for updating your phone with official firmware and backing up your data.

You need the drivers from kies for odin to work. Once you have Installed kies, shut it down and launch odin.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abialystok:
thank you very much!

just one more thing, i need to download a file called speedmod-kernel-k15h-t24-300hz.tar

the RAR has that name but the file inside is called Zimage.

Is that normal?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bubble-be:
Yes, it is.

Odin will open up the tar to flash the files contained within. zImage is the standard kernel format.

Read up on flashing before you continue, though. As long as you're not flashing bootloaders, you're not in any real danger, but it could save you a lot of frustration nonetheless.

You can install the drivers seperate as well -> SAMSUNG USB Drivers for Mobile Phones

Ok, thank u very much!

i've got a new problem now. i started installing a stock rom with odin and it's stuck on the same situtation for hours now..

i wanted to show u a picture, but apperantly i can't do that. oh well..

i placed the files in the correct places(the PIT, PDA, PHONE & CSC files) and pressed start after the program recognized the phone, and it just stays like this...

after i pressed start and until now this is all that was written in the "massage" section:

anyways, i just left it connected with the odin running for the night, and when i woke up this morning i found out that the battery was drained during the night and the phone stayed sd it was before...

any idead what did i do wrong?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] nirmalsudharjanan:
Is there any problem if I charge my phone continuously throughout the night ..

I heard that it's not good to do so..is that right?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sunil.s125:
Yes

It will definitely decrease the life of your battery..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] obsidian_eclipse:
It wont harm the phone as a one off every now and again. Lipoly batteries charge in about 1-2 hours and dont trickle charge. Once charged the phone switches off the charging circuit, when it drops a few percent it begins charging again. Lipoly batteries have a limited number of charge cycles (usually in the region of 500) before the capacity is reduced, if you charge once every day then you get a good year and a bit out of the battery.

The more charging the battery receives the less life it has. If you charge a few times a day then the life could be as little as 6-9 months before it degrades. The process is gradual though and not like a cliff edge, however, as the battery capacity is reduced there is a greater likelihood that it will loose charge quicker and switch the charging circuit more often causing further reductions.

Best practise is to charge once a day until it registers as charged, then leave it ten minutes and unplug it. I always reboot my phone once a day after charging to ensure that any rogue programs have shut down and therefore not causing any drain.

Lipoly batteries last longer when they are holding a charge. Try not to fully* discharge them too often.

*Never ever 'fully' empty the battery, you shouldnt even be able to as it should shut down the phone to prevent damage. (When the phone reads 0% it is still holding nearly 2/3 its charge!) A discharged lipoly battery has a safety cut out to prevent usage when severely discharged as they will explode.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ficvic:
I charge mine whenever the battery drops below 10-20%. So far the battery life is same. Phone is about 6 months old.
