So I just got my Refurb Tab and did the OTA update and was on 2.3.5. I proceeded to step one. Flashed fine and things seem good. At first Ti Backup said it didn't have busybox access so I downloaded BusyBox from the market, rebooted and now it works. Now is this just the stock Rom but rooted? Is it considered a Vanilla Rom then? Just trying to get my terminology down here. On my fascinate you root but are still on the stock rom, then flash a vanilla rom or some other rom (ex: CM7 or whatever) but i thought i read somewhere on here or another thread that this was considered a "vanilla package" didn't make sense to me so figured i'd clear it up.

if you do, you have root.

Is any possible way to get Modem.bin from this firmware (2.3.5). I accidentally flashed Modem from leaked 2.3.4 and now stuck with S:i800.0.3V.EF01 baseband and can't make my Tab all stock. I would really appreciate it. Thank You!

So I've been having problems getting my Tab to update, so I did the process starting from DJ11 without applying that update first.

What problems am I likely to run into?

not working

I am unable to get this to work. Just bought device last week... VZW, stock out of box, android 2.3.5... tried superoneclick and ODIN too... the Samsung Keis Software doesnt see the device either... although it seems to work just fine.
[Galaxy Tab General] jaestreetss:
I have been trying for days but heimdall gives me a error saying device not detected i think the error number is 12

What am i doing wrong?

Edit. I know my drivers are installed right because my computer recognizes my tab and also i have tried this on more than one computer getting the same error
[Galaxy Tab General] fitterdave:
it worked for me.

okay, just adding my 2-cents, because I finally rooted the damn thing (sch-i800). if it works give me a thank you, note, or whatever.

I am using Heimdall 1.3.2 and had all kinds of problems. Most of these are dealing with the error code 12.

So here is what i did different.

I used the Utilities tab on Heimdall, downloaded the stock PIT off my Verzion Tab, and used that when flashing all the other files.

I only wanted Root so I used my own PIT, and the zImage from this thread.

Bingo, I now have root.

Now its time to add goodies (or more likely soft brick it a few times till I get it right.)

[Galaxy Tab General] computerist:
You just need to reinstall heimdall. Not all of the components got installed.
[Galaxy Tab General] USMCsilver:
brick, Galaxy 7.0

I think I bricked my device.

I can hold the down arrow, and then use the Heimdall Frontend and then click start and get the files to load.

The green bar shows a file transfer.

No matter when I hold down the "volume up", all I get is the "SAMSUNG" into screen lit up. It'll sit there for eternity. Nothing else will happen.

I've tried to reboot with "volume up/power" and I still get the eternal SAMSUNG logo. If I hold "volume down", I get it the triangle w/ the Android sweeping, and it saying "Do not turn off Target!!!!!"

I can then run the Heimdall Frontend again, and it detects the device, and xfers the files again. I'll do the "volume up" and still don't get anything past that but the "SAMSUNG" logo.

Help...please... :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
It is not bricked if you can go download mode.

Maybe you just didn't flash the right ROM files.
[Galaxy Tab General] USMCsilver:
Well...

I just did something different.

In the Zadig program, I picked a different "device" that had something to do with "USB Video Device".

The tablet started talking to me...I waited. Talked some more. Waited some more. Just clicked to wipe devide...it's thinking...

We'll see what happens in a minute.

I am good to go. I have the "superuser" app in the drawer.

Time to figure out what exactly that does. :)

US Cellular Tab - converting to process to fit my uscc tab

Can i just download the us cellular kernel EJ06 from samsung's website and use that kernel with the other files (params,dbdatafs, factoryfs,cache, recovery)? does anyone know if this would be compatible or would i need to learn how to rebuild these files from scratch for US Cellular SCH-i800 galaxy tab 2.3.5 ? Any pointers.

By the way, i did successfully apply this procedure to my tab and now have it rooted, but would like to revert back and have the US Cellular version of this rooted procedure.

Thanks for this great post. i learned alot through this process, but have ways more to go. I guess i can now root friends' tabs if they have a verizon tab. lol
[Galaxy Tab General] hgwelsh:
Worked Well

This worked really well, thanks:cyclops:
[Galaxy Tab General] axtn95:
Worked really great with cubed!

For those who get error 12, Windows thinks it has the correct drivers installed when it doesn't. So plug in, let windows try to install drivers successfully. When Windows finishes, open the zadig.exe and itt'l prolly show blank, click options, then "list all devices" and in the list find something like "Modem", select that, re install drivers.

Turn off the tab if already in download mode by holding power. GO back in download mode by volume down and power (It might show a new icon instead of downloading, means the error soft bricked the tab, but doesn't matter, continue like normal) and plug in and retry!

If you need help feel free to PM me!

I'm trying to root my Verizon galaxy tab sch-i800 running on 2.3.5. using the method that uses C++ 2010, Heimdall and Galaxy Cubed 3 rom. However I'm using a 32 bit dell computer and C++ won't install. Is there a link to a C++ file that I can use to run Heimdall that will work on a 32 bit computer?

Resurrected my Verizon Tab! Fix for black bootscreen/no recovery page?

Worked like a charm, thanks dsb9938! Brought my old Verizon tab back from the grave.

Just in case there is a fix I haven't found by searching... I am having the issue with black/no bootscreen after startup logo and inability to get to the recovery page (flashes gibberish or nothing at all) as posted here: http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1334073.html

If there is a fix for the startup screen/recovery page cool. If not, I'm just thankful to have a useful device again.

Thanks again!

E. Rooting for 2.3.3/2.3.4/2.3.5 (Thanks to russian forum-user with nickname may213):

1) Download attached file called upd_1.zip and copy it to your sdcard

2) Turn off your phone

3) Press POWER+HOME BUTTON

4) Select update from sdcard, select the file upd_1.zip

5) After the update completed - reboot

Problem solved!!

I find this article "How to root Samsung Galaxy Ace on Froyo & Gingerbread

"acetips.wordpress.com/2011/09/29/root-ace-froyo-gingerbread/"

I follow the note:

"Those who are getting errors and cant root their phone , Download this file “AceGingerRoot.zip” and use it instead of “upd_1.zip”"

download the file “AceGingerRoot.zip".

and successfull!!!!

I don't know why, but again, it's successful!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
I'm sorry, I thought my problem solved.

coz I saw the update completed and the superuser icon in the app drawer.

But when I try to open Titanium Backup, it says my ROM is not rooted.

Still need help!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
and my phone is locked to my carrier,

does it affect the rooting?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
really need help!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so frustrated!!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
Lol. I had the exact same problem! Are you intending to install cm7? Whatever I did that update pack would not root for me... I ended up flashing clockwork mod ace, a recovery just for the ace. I've heard that the regular ROM Manager can brick this phone. Then installed cm7 without having the root permission in Gingerbread. You can do it just by placing the Rom on the SD and using the install zip from sd option. You will want to make a backup before you do this. Also check if you can find your providers APN values online for setting up mobile data. Worked for me. Do I like cm7? It is good, very customizable. However, do not expect something as polished as the firmware without a bit of effort to figure out the options.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
And no, being locked to a carrier does not affect rooting your phone.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] droidtwoseven:
you can try CF-root
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
You should also have a look at the topic on this forum "(Q) GTS5830B root?" I think it may be applicable to you. Some stuff about changing the script in the update.zip pack to match the model of your Ace. :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
yes, I got the problem exactly same as this thread""(Q) GTS5830B root?" " but I don't understand how to solve it using the method mentioned in that thread.

Actually, I'm not only just a noob, also, ace is my first smartphone.

I tried to figure out all the new words, apps, systems I had to use to get my Ace to customize as my wish.

I'll managed to solve my problem by figuring out the approach that thread mentioned. If I can't, I'll probably try CM7(another new thing to learn).

Thank you for your hint, at least now, I saw the hope out there.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
I've tried these 2:

1. edit "updater-script" by changing "GT-S5830" to "GT-S5830T"(my model number), it doesn't work, aborted.

2. delete the "assert", it worked, update completed.

But,

Still,

when I try to open titanium or root uninstaller,

they all say "it is not rooted" after updating was successful.

I just don't get it. WHY?????
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
I tried to unroot, coz I thought maybe I can get rid of the useless superuser app got from updating "“AceGingerRoot.zip” ", and then I will give modified "update.zip" another try.

However, it's so funny that the superuser app is still there after updating unroot.zip successfully(at least that's what the screen says).

Can I recovery to the stock state by using the recovery mode? so I can get rid of all these stuff and start again!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
Okay, you have EXACTLY the same problem I did. You could try SuperOnceClick. It never worked for me, but it might be worth a try before giving up. There is a good Tutorial on it here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

When that didn't work I just installed CyanogenMod-7.1-RC1Cooper-Grif_07 and moved on with my life. You can get it to look just like Gingerbread, but you will loose all your Samsung stuff, and your GPS might not be able to get a fix. Sorry...

---------- Post added at 09:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 AM ----------

Yes, if you made a back-up before you started. It is really easy, it just takes a few min... Without a backup you would need to download the original firmware.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
Could you tell you where you got the cm7 and the tutorial? I need to make sure I can install CM7 on my ACE. THX.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bluecard:
I've heard cannot get backup by using clockwork recovery if it's not rooted. Am I wrong about it?

and I thought SuperOnceClick is for Froyo and not for ACE?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] -SGA-:
When I installed I was so MAD that I was ready to smash the phone, so honestly I never backed up before installing CM7. You can go ahead and try. The worst that can happen is nothing. If you're flashing CM7 and you absolutely hate it you can always reset back to the factory ROM by downloading and installing it. There is a full Tutorial here including links to everything you need! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1263292

SuperOneClick worked on my P500h running 2.3.3...

I can confirm that the lapdock does indeed work as a hdmi monitor and usb mouse / keyboard, I had some spare time and tried it out.

I just spliced a USB A to a micro USB female, works great on my ps3. I just connected USB Rx Tx and ground, Don't bother connecting USB +5vdc red as it sends power up stream and may damage whatever your connecting it to.

here's a video of it in action.

[Atrix 4G Accessories] zanzee:
The lapdock keyboard and touchpad work just like a normal USB keyboard and mouse. I just used a ps3 as a good proof of concept. But it'll work on anything else that has HDMI / DVI and USB. I'm going to use mine as a cheap rack controller with a KVM.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] phantoms8:
@callen81, I see there are 2 HDMI to micro HDMI connectors on dealextreme. The one you've posted is $5, and the other one is $4.10. The cheaper one also has a smaller form factor. Maybe it'll fix without any modifications. Anyway, I just wanna ask is there any reason why you've decided to purchase the expensive one? Thanks!

Here is the link to the cheaper one.

http://www.dealextreme.com/p/hdmi-male-to-micro-hdmi-female-adapter-66079
[Atrix 4G Accessories] SpeedBrkr:
Awesome find callen81!

If I get a "Gold Plated HDMI Female to HDMI Female Adapter/Converter" (search on dealextreme) coupled with the HDMI Male to Micro HDMI Female Adapter, I should be good to go right?

@callen81: Out of curiosity do you happen to have Rock Band 2 with a Rock Band 2 Guitar? If so, I'd love for you to run the auto-calibration test on the Laptop monitor and let us know what the Video Response Time is (aka input lag). If it's under 16.6ms, then it is considered sub 1 frame lag. If you don't have this, I'll do this test myself when I get my Laptop monitor up and running and report back!
[Atrix 4G Accessories] shanghei:
Any chance you can take a pic of the splicing?
[Atrix 4G Accessories] zanzee:
I don't have Rock Band, that HDMI micro female to HDMI male looks identical to the one I have. Looks just to be cheaper? As well I just used a hdmi female to female gender bender for a wall plate and it seems to have worked fine. A HDMI extension cable would probably be ideal.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] shanghei:
Where did you get the female micro usb as well? FRom video it looks like the hdmi adapter takes up almost all the room so I am just wondering how hard is it to fit them plugged in at same time
[Atrix 4G Accessories] mamoranto:
Is there anyway to make an extender (female to male) for both the HDMI and USB connections? I would love to be able to use my atrix as a webcam for skype or goggle talk since the screen blocks the view of the phone when the lapdock screen is up.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] zanzee:
I had to file both the hdmi and micro usb female plugs down a bit, far as an extension cable for the atrix itself it wouldn't work as more then usb data is sent though the usb plug.
[Atrix 4G Accessories] acoustique:
Mac Mini?

All the more reason to pick up the dock while its being sold for $50 on ATT.

Someone should connect this to a Mac Mini and you would have your very own PAAH (Portable as Hell Hackintosh)

Latest&Greatest Series presents:​

DROID RAZR TIPS&TRICKS​

I just wanted to post a couple of helpful tips&tricks for those who are new to the RAZR or Android OS. If I helped please "donate" your time by clicking the thanks button!

​

Access the number pad

Long press the 12# or 123 button on the keyboard. This will only work if you have the standard keyboard installed.

Access the scientific calculator

When using the standard calculator, rotate the phone to landscape mode. The calculator will change to a scientific one.

Remove numbers from the call log

If you have made a call to a number that you don't want anyone seeing in your call log, press Call log on the Home screen. Then press and hold on the contact you want to remove. When the Menu appears, press Delete.

Save images in browser, email or text

To save an image in an email or in the browser, long press on the image and a menu will appear allowing you to save it.

For images inside text messages, you might have to press and hold on the message itself, rather than the image.

Allow swear words in voice recognition

By default, the phone will recognise swear words, but insert x's instead of the word. To change this, go to Settings - Voice input & output - Voice recognition settings. Then untick Block offensive words.

View all camera settings

While in the Camera app you can view all current settings by pressing and holding the little Gear icon in the top right corner of the app.

Swipe right to dial contact

From the Contact list or the Messaging list, swipe from Left to Right to call a Contact.

View CPU and battery information

To view information about your battery and CPU go to your phone dialer and type in the following code: *#*#4636#*#*

Disable the screen lock

Go into Settings - Location and security. Then under Screen unlock settings press Change screen lock. Then chose None.

Rejecting a call with a message

If you receive a call you cannot take (eg if you're in a meeting) you can send a text reply rather than just reject the call. When you receive the call, scroll up from the bottom and select a reject message.

Search music on Youtube from Music Player

While in the Music Player, long press on the song title of the music and you can search Youtube for more music.

Zoom when using the camera

Use the Volume keys to zoom in and out

Feel free to comment with your own tips so that I can add it to the OP!

Have fun!

If I helped please hit the Thanks button! :)
