[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] bittersound:
hmmm, not as recent as LB2 then :(

I guess I could always take it to an authorised service centre for an official firmware upgrade...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] lanwarrior:
A couple of quick questions:

1). My GT7+ build number is P6210UELA1 and it's rooted with Gary's method. Will the firmware update remove the root?

2). What does this firmware fixed? The only problem I have are:

- Lag after using the device for certain time (moving screen, etc.)

- Apps that are tablet-optimized is not shown as such (Mint, TripAdvisor) and shown in "phone" mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] k_t_b:
1. AFAIK, none of garyd's root options are compatible with standard firmware updates. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

In order to upgrade your firmware, you'd need to restore your tablet to stock first and then upgrade to the latest firmware.

2. AFAIK, the issues you are experiencing will not be remedied by updating the firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] lanwarrior:
Thanks for the information. Do you know if I can re-root once I downloaded the latest firmware? I.e. download latest firmware, lose root, with new firmware re-root.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] k_t_b:
Yes.

Before I recently switched to an older firmware (so that I could use garyd's custom kernel), I had updated to the latest LA3 and rooted using	p6210_CWMR_20120107.zip from [GT-P6210][CWMRecovery][ROOT] ClockworkMod Recovery and Root (07-Jan-2012). My tablet was running fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] painter_:
This information is incorrect. If you are rooted using Garyd9's method you will still receive firmware updates. There is no need to downgrade.

You will loose root and recovery. As long as it is a honeycomb update all you have to do is re-flash CWM and the root script and you will be ok.

I think that the same method will continue to work once ICS rolls out since gary is pushing the su binary into the os before it is booted, but we do not know what Samsung has in store for us with the ICS update. Maybe they could do anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] k_t_b:
Thank you for the correction and clarification, painter.

I was basing my reply off of garyd's "Post-installation Notes and Issues" where he says that "This recovery is NOT compatible with firmware updates via Kies" and that he recommends to "restore this tablet to a factory state" before updating the firmware.

I have not attempted the procedure differently, so I really don't know if restoring is necessary. I also never attempted to update the firmware after rooting with this method.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] garyd9:
to avoid the same question over and over, I pre-answered with the safest answer.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] scumball:
I had this firmware on my US P6210 from UK eBay seller Digigood - and the same result in Kies.

I installed CWM and took a backup, then used ODIN mode to install the KK2(?) firmware that was available here a while back. That then showed up in Kies and enabled me to update to LA3.

I think UEKJC firmware is a weird one. LA3 has a better/newer Marketplace (works in Landscape) - other than that feels the same, but shows up in Kies so makes you feel more 'official'...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kzoodroid:
If you have to reflash CWM then Kies is putting the stock recovery back on the device before doing the update. This would make sense as that is how you can do it with an HTC device and a pc based RUU executable through a USB connection. However you can't get the OTA updates from the carriers without first putting the stock recovery back on as its not part of the OTA update.

i know what i want now. i rooted my phone so how about some suggestion

best way to backup phone

what are your most used apps would like to try some you use

i looked but cant find in setting menu how to make the ringtone play normal
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dr.ketan:
- Get CWM backup, to full backup your device, if you have used ghost/acronis for your PC, it is just like that. another is titanium backup, My backup Pro

- Its depends on your taste, As i always have >100 non stock app on my device, difficult to say which one you like, just search market for different category

- I don't understand your question, but i guess you saying about ascending ring tone??

if yes, there are some mods/ROM available to disacble it. find in development section.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] offenberg:
You dont need to root your Note to make it better. It is perfect as it is. Dont listen to these guys wanting you to root :) unles that is what you want of course :)

You are already late m8

If you had carefully read 2 post above yours, you cud find, he has already rooted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Innerstation:
thank you dr.ketan your advice was most helpful about titanium backup. it's a little hard at first but now i understand. i'm coming from a regular phone so this is all very different and exciting for me. i bought it to join 2012 lol

Sorry friend. My bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gobucsxxxvii:
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? My phone seems to get confused about if it should be connected through wifi or 3g/4g for data. For example, if I am at home and connected to my wifi, then get in the car and leave without disabling wifi, the phone acts as if it does not recognize the 3g/4g connection at all. It will just tell me I have no network connection since I am out of range of wifi. Same happens when I am connected with 3g/4g and I walk/drive by a wifi area and I do not join the network. The open app that is using data will then loose its connection and tell me there is no network connection. Simply disabling my wifi and restarting the app does not work. I often have to reboot the phone or turn off my mobile data signal and then enable it to establish a connection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gobucsxxxvii:
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Webluke:
I have this problem also, I will have something like streaming music playing then when I am out of range of wifi it dose not go to 3g on verizon. If I don't have any thing using wifi and disable it before going out of range and starting a stream no problem, but when it happens I switch to airplane mode then back and it works fine.

Your not the only one who has this problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jnn1:
Same here. Not sure what's causing it. I have to go into airplane mode, which itself seems to take ages, and then turn off airplane mode to establish 3g connection.

I thought it may be a mess up from aokp, and after a clean wipe and flash it seemed fine, but then started showing the same behavior , failing to comnect to 3g after exiting wifi zone.

Does anyone have an answer for this problem? Is it a hardware glitch or software or app caused problem?

Any help would be dearly appreciated too!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Known issue in AOSP right now..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jnn1:
Thanks for the info. Glad to hear it doesn't seem like a hardware problem, though I have yo admit I didn't see it on the aokp wikis ... Would you know if it's a problem for an unknown minority our a more general one?

So, I guess, then stock room should be fine? I was only on stock for a few days before flashing aokp. Going back would be a nuisance, but if I can have armless transition from wifi to 3g, then I guest I should -( ...

Any talk on when it may be solved in the aosp community?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joediep:
Hi all I recently purchase this device and thought i did all the research but I tried to use the device on AU KDDI network today with no luck, so i am wondering what network will it work on in japan. NTT Docomo and Softbank are really the only two options left but I still have a year on a 2 year contact with AU. Any help please, thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firipu:
It's quite complicated to use non Japanese phones on Japanese networks. You have to enter the correct APN settings etc.

Only for softbank it's easy. Get a smartphone unlimited plan, give in their non-softbank phone apn (plus.softbank; user: plus; Pass: softbank) and enjoy your phone.

If you use Docomo you have to go register you phone's IMEI on their network in store. Then they'll also make you pay the most expensive tethering unlimited plan (around 8000yen/80euro/month). They prefer not to allow non-Japanese phones on their networks, so they might just say no.

For AU, I have absolutely no idea. Contact your AU shop. Be very careful to use your phone without the correct settings, because they will charge you insane amounts of money to use mobile data. And when I say insane, I mean bat**** insane... I've used 400.000yen / 4000euro worth of data in 2 weeks time. If not for my unlimited plan and correct settings, I'd be bankrupted. There are quite a lot of stories of foreigners getting screwed from all sides by Japanese providers because they used the wrong settings. Again, be very careful :)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bayhota:
has anyone got one of these? I was looking into getting a headset or headphones that operate like the apple headphones with the mic whilst someone calls or acting a means of listening to music. See this, looks cold, but not sure you can use it to speak to someone whilst the phone is in your pocket.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Monjaro:
the tsettu

i think its just a bluetooth device that you plug your standard headset/headphones that came with your phone, i think the bluetooth device comes with headphones with the mic attatched anyway
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Czechbiker:
Get MW600, I've got one and it works brilliantly
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rashkae:
That's how all headsets with a mic work, ever since they first came out in the old days. "that operate like the apple headphones" makes it sound like Apple invented this, which they did not. They were about 10 years late to the party.

I find the bluetooth headsets are great, like the MW600. Great sound, no wire dangling into your pocket, works great for calls.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andoridkiller:
I got these with my phone for free, Its not he livesound ones though its just smart headset and the first time i used it compared to my 30 quid soundmagics it was ok, but once you let it burn in like all other headphones it improves dramatically, and the sound quality and bass improved and found its nearly as good as my 30 quid soundmagics.

Just saw this over at SlashGear:

http://www.slashgear.com/samsung-galaxy-note-ics-upgrade-pushed-to-q2-with-added-apps-22219524/

Doesn't really say which versions will be getting ICS (US/International). The image and video show the international version so I'm thinking it's more likely that we will have to wait a bit longer here in the states, or possible just have to wait for the Ronald Reagan candy of choice version of the OS...

[Xperia Arc General] Lusterboi:
I'm hoping they release the ICS for arc s by the end of this weekend, the suspense is killing me slowly lol. I check this forum and sony blog post every morning.
[Xperia Arc General] doomed151:
As they said late March to early April, that could mean the update would between 15 March and 15 April.

[Xperia Arc General] Flo95:
Hasn't HTC also updated a device?

Sony is behind - again :(
[Xperia Arc General] progosu:
I'm very enthusiastic about ICS too but doesn't it mean that we won't have our devices rooted anymore? I've linked tons of apps via Link2SD and my Arc don't have enough space to hold them all.
[Xperia Arc General] mhyke13ph:
I'm worried when we will have to upgrade to ICS, AFAIK a lot of apps out there is not yet compatible with ICS, until the developer will upgrade the app.

But I'm also Excited because lots of optimization and features will be available to us, specially that Adreno 205 Driver will be included(I read it somewhere)
[Xperia Arc General] doomed151:
I think otherwise. Almost every app I tried is fully compatible with ICS.

Also, Sony has announced the neo L in China and it launches with ICS on board. It uses the same chipset as the arc (MSM8255). Perhaps we could port it when someone gets and uploads the filesystem dump, that is, if the device comes out sooner than the ICS update.
[Xperia Arc General] rec71:
There's nothing on PTCRB yet and updates usually appear on here well in advance of the update actually being pushed. So it could still be weeks away assuming they haven't had any serious issues they need to fix first. It's been 4 weeks since the beta and not a peep from the Sony devs here on XDA which is a shame.

Did you really think that sony would get ICS before samsung and HTC? Sorry sony lovers but you will never get an update before samsung
[Xperia Arc General] CrazyPeter:
I don't think it will be a problem. I also have an Asus Transformer TF101, and that got ICS a few weeks back, no application compatibility problems, and it's REALLY quick (it was quick before anyway).
[Xperia Arc General] sinkster:
Is that all samsung/HTC devices or Nexus devices? I think we should know...
[Xperia Arc General] Retardo25:
Never get an update before samsung? Wasn't the Arc the first phone to sport Gingerbread?
[Xperia Arc General] frankie99969:

[Xperia Arc General] zed011:
By XDA sure, by sony no. I doubt they will release another major update after this. Look at the X10, got gingerbread update and that was it.
[Xperia Arc General] doomed151:
There's 50% chance they will do it and if they do, Jelly Bean will probably be the last major update.
[Xperia Arc General] Poker gypsy:
Nope it was nexus s
[Xperia Arc General] Retardo25:
Yea, nexus was first, of course. But I think even you understood my point.

Samsung's fleet was updated later...

and isn't Jelly Bean only for tablets :confused:
[Xperia Arc General] CrazyPeter:
No tablet Android and phone Android are now one and the same and forever will be. Not even Apple can claim to have achieved this, as whilst they call their tablet and phone OS iOS5, it's a different beast internally and just marketing gimmicks.

[Xperia Arc General] Poker gypsy:
I'm sorry I was thinking about the x10 did that thing ever get an update?
[Xperia Arc General] Poker gypsy:
So can you please tell me who makes the nexus s?
[Xperia Arc General] xperseus:
Come on, man... Although it's branded Samsung, we all clearly know all nexus series are branded as Google phone, and Google phones will always got the update first.
[Xperia Arc General] Retardo25:
Keep digging. ;-) Man, are you making a fool of yourself.

If you would have bothered to read my post you would've seen that I wrote that the hardware is samsung's (well not really to be honest, they might piece it together and slap their name on it), but the software is Google's. You were talking about software updates.. We've been over this right?
