ROFL YEAH I forgot to add that inorder for the file not to get taken down, there was a root ception ROFL.

I'll take your offer up on those cookies btw :P I am starving like a duck atm.

I was replying to you via PM all this time, oh well, the thread works out too :)

Now that your rooted, we need to find a way to flash CWM which should be Mobile Odin, Surprisingly let me check on the version from the website. Chainfire did mention that he managed to get it to work properly with his 10.1 (He had his bricked too)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
I do think I just get the jist of it, the flashing shouldn't be too hard right? Just gotta get Odin to work.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
:( I could use a batch of some home made or some badass Chips Ahoy or something. Anything to munch on would be epic atm.

Naw flashing isn't too hard, I suppose this is your first time in flashing? You can't really brick it if you do it right, Infact tablet's are hard to brick by Samsung, unless you flash like a 7510 firmware on a 7500 I suppose :P

Good thing the CWM is only 5MB, and it's an all rounder.

Then again I am confused greatly as Mobile Odin should do the job of flashing, doesn't matter if it doesn't support the device, most flashing methods are similar via Odin.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
Yeah, idk what's going on. When I launch Mobile ODIN, the first thing it says is:

"Device model not supported!"

Then it asks to generate a dump file, which I did and submitted to Chainfire's thread.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
What's the version number of the mobile Odin?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe T:
Hi,

FWIW, last night I experienced the exact same issue, I'm running Task 14. I tried multiple usb cords, and tried to connect my tab to both my Macbook and PC. It's definitely a problem on the Tab side. Odin 1.85 DID recognize my tab. I did not have the recovery files and it was late so I'm going to download those files and try to flash it tonight. I'll let you know how I make out.

***EDIT*** OK, so I had my wife turn off USB Debugging and plug in my Tab. PC recognized it! She then unplugged, and turned USB Debugging back on, plugged it back into the PC, and got MTP Connected! It was a simple fix for me, hope it works for you also galaxytabevo.

EDIT 2* Oops, saw you already tried what I did. This might be the most useless post ever! Sorry.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
Version 2.30, just updated same issue
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
lol, thanks for the help anyway
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
Quick question, when you stock it in download mode, does it recognize the tablet in Odin? I never did ask you that thinking you tried it.

Download mode is the Android buddy when you do the Power+VolDown combo
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joe T:
Alright, this is pissing me off. My tab's doing the same thing again. It worked fine until last night.

Odin works

ADB works

Kies will not connect

Still stuck at "MTP Initialisation"

I'm assuming OP has the exact issue. I've tried multiple USB ports, 3 different USB cables (1 brand new), 1 pc, 1 Mac. My GNex connects fine with MTP. This is frustrating!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
No download will not work, since it still says "Waiting for USB Cable..."

It won't recognize it
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
If Odin works, then either a factory reset or a nice reflash of stock firmware would fix the issue :) That should fix that, Since the USB Charge script conflicts with a few scenario's.

@evo The biggest concern right now is getting CWM to be installed. Question is by what method now...I need to think about that. The only safe way to push CWM is via Odin, and that's what bums out big time, I'm still trying to figure out what's suddenly causing this hell hole, not only you but many are lately complaining about their USB's not working. Most from task's thread, what's going on there? Might have to look up his thread for a solution

I bumped into Chainfire and he mentioned the code for 10.1 is already in there but there are high chances of bricking it which is why he disabled it. FML

---------- Post added at 07:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

Well, Looks like I was right, if you search on the thread of taskROM you will see a flood of "MTP not working, USB not working, USB Charge not working"

Only problem is you haven't flashed anything evo ;( or have you? Stock ROM? Custom ROM? So why has this been happening trickles me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
Honest I have no idea lol. I only have it rooted cause you gave me the file, and it wasn't working before either so idk. Sometimes when I plug it into the computer, it begins to charge and I know for a fact that charging using USB is disabled on the tab so maybe somethings wrong with that code telling it what is for charging and what is for syncing? Samsung wasn't helpful either they just want me to send it in
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
What ROM did you flash before this? You haven't mentioned that buddy, since you have USB charge, I can assume it's task14
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
LOL no rom....all stock. All that's done to it is that it is rooted. This is why I'm so frustrated, its like it has a mind of its own
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
That really confuses me then o.o How does a stock ROM do this to itself, I can agree if it was a custom ROM or something but USB charge was never there for HC in the first place it was to save it from being charged if it gets bricked I suppose.

But anyways seems like the sammy centre is your last option :|

If removing the drivers and reinstalling them didn't work. Then yeah :| Its probably factory defect
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:
Yeah I'm just thinking of leaving it stock and getting an iPad soon, when I get some cash. Can you do one last favor? Do you have a zip file that has the stock 3.2 with no root? I can't seem to find it. I do appreciate your efforts in helping me, even though I failed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
Ah no worries, you haven't failed, this is something they messed up on their side and needed to fix it before launch, Samsung was just too arrogant to rush tablet's to get into the mix with the iPad fanatics.

As for root there are unrooting apps on the market. That should save you major time :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxytabevo:

Oh point me twards a nice stable, fast, customizable Rom & Kernel if you don't mind I'm looking to flash as soon as my phone gets here! Please and Thank You!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d12unk13astard:
Welcome to our forum man, check out calkulins el29 2.9.2 rom after you get rooted. It is imho the smoothest rom and the best to start out with. Stay away from ics builds at least until you are more experienced with how things work on this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MikeC84:
Unfortunately there aren't many kernel devs for our phone. I have made a GB kernel with some added governors / IO's but haven't released it because I don't even use GB anymore.

Waiting for final build of ICS so we can get source.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
Hello everyone,

I am a bit confused about the new update, its the first time a major update comes out since i got this first androis device.

I read that they release the updates slowly, to carrier free devices first then its upto the carrier to release it to their customers. Am i correct so far?

If that is the case, i have 3 friends with sgs2's using Orange carrier here in Switzerland, all 3 got their 4.0 updates, some through kies and 1 directly through his phone.

On the other hand i have a carrier-free sgs2 since it was released back in may and i still didnt get the update till today. Unfortunately i dont know anyone else here in Switzerland that is using a carrier-free sgs2 to see if its the same with them.

So my question is, is it normal for a carrier-free sgs2 get the update after carrier specific device?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
your phone has to be running switz official rom in the first place for kies to work.

europe official ics is out already use odin and flash.

using odin is as official as kies update mind you. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
Thanks for the reply atfish,

How do i know what "rom" am i running? for what country or region? because i bought mine off a store here in Switzerland.

I dont know what odin is but i can google it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
Use Sttings -> About Phone to get all the information about what firmware is installed on your phone and yes, you should definitely google for Odin.

Concerning the upgrade to ICS you can wait until your provider (Swisscom like me?) is kind of ready or as said by atifsh use Odin and flash the ICS Open Europe version - this is what I did ;).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
Hello frxp,

I am not part of any carrier, when i got my sgs2 i paid the full price and got it without a contract so i dont have to be locked to just the one since i travel alot.

But the carrier service im using is Sunrise (its a horrible carrier but i get 75% of my final bill as part of my company deal so its waaaay cheaper then anything else), so is the update connected with what carrier im using even if i didnt get the phone with them with a contract?

I mean do i have to wait for Sunrise to upgrade their customers for me to get the update as well even if im using a

carrier-free

phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
Hello JJegan,

Thanks alot for the thorough reply and will follow it.

I nust have one last question, what does "provider" stands for?

I thought it the provider is the same as the carrier. Like in Switzerland we have Swisscom, Orange and Sunrise.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Provider as in who provided the phone .

Eg my phone was sold by O2 with O2 firmware and codes but its unlocked and i use it on TMobile network . Still has all the same product codes from O2 and Kies would recognize it as an O2 phone for any update .

Not that it actually is as its custom GB rom most definitely not ICS .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
hello,

sorry for reopening an old topic, but i still didnt get the update yet and i want some clarification.

please check the image i added with this post.

i still dont get how can the update be out for switzerland for Sim-Free phones and i still didnt get it. im trying not to upgrade manually and do it through the normal update process.

so does anyone know why my phone in particular is not having the upgrade yet when its supposed to be out for the whole country?

thank you in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
ICS update is not supposed anything .

Its released by the vendor for provider supplied phones up to the vendor when .

Stock Samsung roms are released as and when by Samsung you ask Samsung when .

Nobody on XDA can tell you when Samsung are releasing an update .

Sim Free is nothing to do with updates it simply means the phone is not locked to a network .

Kies has the update when it gets the updated .

You can use CHECKFUS to double check if its on the server .

Alternative is to join XDA DEVELOPERS forum and flash generic stock Samsung firmware yourself .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimAnd:
My SGS2 is PDA:I9100XWKI4, phone:I9100XXKI1, CSC:I9100OXXKI2.

Sam has an empty field for "Country/Carrier", so I have no idea where it belongs. I just know I don't have ICS. It seems to me that they go by PDA.

I can see that there are multiple Open Europe firmwares with 4.0.3:

I9100XXKP8	4.0.3	2011 December	I9100OXAKP8

I9100XXKPA	4.0.3	2012 January	I9100OXAKPA

I9100XXLP1	4.0.3	2012 January	I9100OXALP1

I9100XXLP2	4.0.3	2012 January	I9100OXALP2

I9100XXLPH	4.0.3	2012 February	I9100OXALPH

I9100XXLPJ	4.0.3	2012 February	I9100OXALPJ

Which one may I use? What are the differences amongst them?

Is there a rule here? Is the earliest the best one, because for some reason it goes firs? Or the latest one, because some errors were resolved?

What I understand is that if I use some of there, data will be wiped, so I have to restore backup and reinstall all app? It's a lot of job...I'd like to avoid it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
the last three letter and number tell you the year, month and version released.

L = 2012, P= february, J= 10 the version released.

Always use the latest because it has the most bug fixes and less FC= Forced Closes because of incompatibility in apps.

!st time you go from Gingerbread to ICS, it is recommended you do a comperle wipe, to avoid bootlooping, you will only lose apps that you have download from the market or play store as it is known now. If you have backed everything up to your google account, the back up will be restored when you sign back in to your google account.

After that you can use no wipe versions which will not require you to reinstall your data or apps but some of the apps may require to clear the cache because of how the data was first stored may not work with ICS, the app itself will work fine.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TimAnd:
OK, can you please explain why P= february? In mine current I9100XWKI4, I assume that K is 2011, what is W and I?

Then the best option would be:

I9100XXLPJ	4.0.3	2012 February	I9100OXALPJ	Open Europe

But, CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_LPJ-v5.3-CWM5.zip has problems mounting secure storage, same as LPH. I should wait LPQ or LPS Open Europe then.

What's the best way to upgrade: ODIN, Kies, CWM Recovery?

I'd like to go without wipe first time, to try to keep apps, if it doesn't work, I can do it again as you wrote.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Odin is stock roms

CWM is custom roms

KIES is official upgrade path .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fxrb:
Best is to use this thread by Intratech. What I do is look for a ROM with CSC equal to AUT (= Switzerland) or a Multi-CSC containing AUT (amongst many others). At the present time this results in XXLPQ. The method to use in this case is ODIN or even better Mobile ODIN.

I am not absolutely sure but I think you can interprete the 3 letter/digit version number as follows: 1=1, 2=2, etc, A=10, B=11, ..., Z=35. Then you get:

LPQ = 21.25.26

KJ3 = 20.19.3

From this one can tell that LPQ is kind of > then KJ3 and therefore LPQ is the newer version. This 'rule' is take from this thread by Chainfire and to me it makes quite a lot of sense ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smokie Smokerson:
My question was simple... how do i know what "Vendor" my phone is from/using so i can have an idea when it will be released.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
F**** its simple if you dont know as the purchaser then all you can do is estimate from the Product Code if its not been changed and that requires a simple search on XDA or via Google .

Or look on Sammobile.com

Or contact the vendor and ask them the question .

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Breakthecycle2:
So, all of a sudden today, I went to use my PDAnet and for some reason, it is not recognizing the phone. I reinstalled the usb drivers and it's there. USB debugging is checked (i unchecked it and then checked it again). I read I may need to reflash a stock Google image, so I downloaded it and when it bootloader I get the following:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\Users\Administrator>cd c:\android/tools

c:\Android\tools>adb shell

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

error: device not found

c:\Android\tools>

I can't mount it as a disk drive on my PC so transfer pics or files or anything. Any idea what I could do?

The only different thing I have done was used a different USB cable because my damn cat chewed my other one. It does charge through USB.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
if you're on bootloader (fastboot mode), adb is not available.

search tags: fastboot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] weirddan455:
To flash the stock ROM, you want to turn the phone off then hold the volume down + power button to get into the bootloader then use the fastboot command (not adb). Do a google search for galaxy nexus return to stock for the exact command. I think there's a thread on here somewhere too.

If you just want to copy files over, you don't need any drivers or anything. It uses MTP but I just did a format of my Win7 PC and I can confirm it works natively. It shows up in My Computer under Portable Devices. You can also use adb with your phone on, not in the bootloader, to copy files but it's easier just to copy and paste in the Windows GUI.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lucidman:
I have been on the T-Mobile Walmart $30 plan for a while (100mins, 5GB/data, unlimited texting) and it has worked out perfect for my needs. When I signed up, I bought a Samsung Vibrant off of Ebay and have had no problems over the last 4 months or so. Now, my wife wants to do the same thing and get off of AT&T. I have been keeping an eye on Ebay for a Galaxy S II, but am getting nervous about being screwed over with a blacklisted phone, especially since the SGSII is going to cost a lot more than my Vibrant did.

From what I've been reading, it doesn't seem like there is much you can do to try to avoid getting ripped off from an Ebay phone. What really got me nervous was reading about someone that got a phone and had it working on T-Mobile for just over 45 days before they blacklisted it due to the previous owner not paying on the contract they had. That (over 45 days) would make any recourse through Ebay/Paypal pretty hard.

Does anyone have suggestions other than Ebay... and other than paying $600 retail to T-Mobile?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] absdotan:
I have purchased used SGS II T989 from people posted their ads in craigslist.org, I strongly suggest this over ebay or something else since the cost with this is lower than e-bay and you have the opportunity to test the device before paying. I put a SIM into the phone, made a phone call, checked wireless, verify that a stock ROM is installed, etc. Pay attention if this is LOCKED to tMBO (or unlocked).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lucidman:
Thanks, I've been checking out Amazon marketplace as well. I haven't seen a T-Mobile Galaxy S II come up on Craigslist in my area. When you mentioned to pay attention if it is locked or unlocked, are you saying that because if it is unlocked that may be a clue that it is banned from Tmobile network?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
You can get a brand new in box galaxy S2 for 425 — 475 on Ebay. That's your cheaper safe route than dropping 600 + tax at a tmobile store.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] androidsyrup:
Its sound beginner questions. But after search I couldn't find the answer that I'm looking for.

Here are my problems...

1. When I open the kies, it says there is a new version 2.2.0.12014.18. Do you want to upgrade?

When I say yes...its keeps on downloading even though max. file size is 63Mb it went over 1.5GB so I have to cancel it.

2. When I go to Samsung download site and choose kies 2.0 for PC, at the end of scanning file it says it's not safe to use it. It may be a malware or virus contains it...so asks me either delete it or choose action for it.

What should I do?

Ignored and install it or should I wait for new version of kies come out?
