[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Maybe because I was too "forward" by using CWM 5831. Have put it back to 5504 and will re-download the 2 non-rooted backups again, because I had an md5 checksum error on the HC 3.2 stock recovery. If the ICS one works I will venture into ICS rooted.

I can always go to a good ROM (does CM10 now have the working camera's, that you know of?) if everything else fails, or RTFM, whatever comes first.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bertiespeed:
You are extracting the rar rite? Just making sure is all sorry cant be more help. Only thing i can think of is just bad downloads ?I haven't flashed cm10 for a while now and honestly haven't been following it lately so not sure I'm happy with task ics.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Success!

No, that's OK. Have been a UN*X guy for decades now... Know rar/tar/cpio/etc like the back of my hand. Did do the wipes multiple times too.

Recovery to your unroot HC went fine, but still the scrolling wake-up screen. Had applied the pershoot bootloader fix for scrolling recovery screen, but that resulted in this wake-up screen doing quick scroll. HC recovery did not help that, so now I am doing OTA ICS update as we speak, to see if that fixes the fast-scroll wake-up screen.

Hope ICS OTA does a full reset (I did notice that the CWM backups on ICS are ext4-based, not FAT-ish) and puts EVERYTHING into factory-state, will do a full reset/wipe after the ICS update to make sure Polaris comes back too.

Still hoping the OTA will do it's thing.

Thanks for the help

UPDATE:

ICS update OTA completed, but failed during 2nd stage of the update. Got Kies-P.O.S. working and ran firmware update there. Success.

After the full update and Stock RecoveryManager wipes all was good again, even sleep no longer had the fast-rolling unlock screen!

Conclusion:

ICS update (not sure on OTA update though) does replace bootmanager and all related stuff (download over 400MB!!!), and yes, Polaris was there too.

My unlock screen and stock recovery manager now work as specified. Now to find another path to get the tablet rooted...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Have other people tried my "solution" way of fixing the scrolling unlock-screen?

i.e. unroot to stock HC (recovery from CWM) and then run Samsung Firmware update (Kies or OTA)? If OTA does not fix it, try Kies (spit spit) firmware upgrade as well.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lexcyn:
I tried using both your rooted and non-rooted backups and neither would restore. I kept getting an error on restoring \system. I even wiped everything before trying to recover.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
I had to perform the download multiple times (checksums and/or system failure), and the way the file is transferred to the tablet does make a difference. Direct USB and Wifi seem to be the only valid ways to get the directory over. I tried via an USB stick in the OTG port, but that did not work.

I had some issues with the ICS ones, so I did it the hard way, via HC and then upgrade. Takes a little more time, but in the long run you save time.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lexcyn:
I am direct wired using USB ... so I'm not sure what is going on. I think I am just going to download the USA image of ICS and see if that works.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bertiespeed:
When I get home from work tomorrow I'll see if i can figure out what going on with them.

*Edit*.... I noticed the time stamp on the rooted ics (folder) is labeled 2019.09.10 if someone could rename the folder to 2012.09.10 and let me know if that works thanks.!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
I don't think that would make any difference, as it is just a label/name. I think the recovery process does not put any value into the name. I will try your rename on another tablet, and will also try a "funky" name like "restore_01" to prove names are not everything in this game... :laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bertiespeed:
I had a restore problem once in the past and this worked but ..... I downloaded the ics rooted backup rite on my buddy's tab last night who's running cm9 did all the extracting and folder moving via root explorer on the tab and restored it with out a hitch. I can't get any of these errors to happen for the life of me lol.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Yeria:
I have a question... if anybody could answer this, it would be great.

I'm running CM9 nightly on my GT-P7510 that I bought in Canada. Is it ok to flash US version on my tablet? It seems sammobile.com doesn't have the Canadian version..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
That is why your Avatar is BertieSpeed, and not Murphy. :D

The way files are transferred -SHOULD- make no difference, but I have seen quite a few 'this should not/cannot happen' things in my IT professional life, to dismiss it.

But thanks again for making the restore available. It saved my canadian bacon!

If I need a stock one what is one I could use?

Since the 4.0 update is rolling out, I can't wait until we see devs compile an awesome ROM from the OTA source code. we may all have a working camera/stable ROM very soon! hooray!

Why only Canada?

I think you can wait a little longer *just this once.*

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] animatechnica:
Thats becuase canucks make for great guinea pigs....if the upgrade only bricks 5% of tabs then it's safe to roll it out to the US :p
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] decatf:
So is there any substance behind this?

I'm no expert but it seems to me like this press release could only be saying that Samsung has made ICS available to mobile carriers.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] thecoach1999:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] scaryshark:
I was looking around the interweb and i havent come across anyone who has been updated to ICS. Can anybody in canada with another samsung device listed confirm if they have recieved ics - excluding gs2 owners of course!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jmitr:
Mobile syrup updated their post. They contacted Samsung Canada for details and were told the update will be rolling out starting this week.

Let's try to keep this thread clean guys, only update here with a screenshot if you have got the update, or a link proving someone else has, asking if anyone has it yet over and over again will just muddy the thread. Of course, questions asking how to revert to stock, check for the update (ota vrs kies etc) are fine.

I'm not trying to play moderator btw, I would rather see this thread kept short then explode when we can all use it to discuss what the update brings (s planner etc) when it actually arrives.

How to revert back to stcok rom?

Hi, How do i revert back to Rogers stock ROM.

Thx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Alas, not yet

Roll-out starts this week, but I think it will be probably in the order mentioned in the first post. I have not seen it yet (here in Canada) for my P7510 over Wifi, and as I am not able to connect to the POS Kies, I will wait patiently for about another 2 weeks, and will then decide to choose an alternate ICS ROM, containing the -working- Camera drivers...

Fool me once...

If you have issue when connecting to Kies, just go in settings -> Application and uncheck "Unknown Sources"

Should work after!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
By Jolly - Alas, no

You might have a right-ho solution there. I tried about everything else, as specified in multiple threads in multiple fori (forii?). That one I had not thought about as I make use of some alternate sources for apps (like the infamous Samsung App Library).

Let me check and I will 'thanks' you when (if?) it works... How come nobody else has told me this before? Ah well, working with a stock ROM is not all it is supposed to be, but I need the Camera to work, or I would have gone to an ICS non-Sammy ROM.

Still crossing my fingers on/for the soon-to-be official update.

- Edit -

No, this one did not work either. All is recognised and well, but the Kies spinner keeps on spinning and spinning (Greg Morton low-flow toilet skit), and will not see it. Can do about everything else, and Kies over WiFi does work, but Firmware update is not supported there. Drat. I hoped this was going to be the Holy Grail. Debugging off, full cold reset, reinstalling drivers, connecting over Wifi to Kies and then attaching USB cable. And now "Unknown Sources"... Nope, none of them work.

I will just have to wait for the OTA, but I will have to be patient and forgo the "Gefingerpoken" on "Das Machine", until my patience runs out...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dannycalgary:
So I tried reverting to stock from the unroot package in bertiespeed's sig but am running into issues when it goes to restore from the back up that is provided. It appears to pass MD5 checks, then does the boot image, but when it comes to the system restore, it crashes from what I can tell and restarts clockwork recovery...

Does anyone have another PDA file maybe? Or even a stock 3.1 canadian wifi tar file would be great at this point.

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] RileyGrant:
All you people reverting to stock do realize that within hours of the ICS update rolling out, someone on here will make a version for you that you can install in recovery just like any other rom and will already have root prepackaged, right?

Very aware but I will be in Europe for 3 weeks starting tomorrow and will get intermittent wifi access and if there is a chance of getting the real thing OTA I would like the ability to try.

Tablet or Tablet += Phone

Everyone is welcoming ICS 4.0 with so much pomp and pageantry but the question still begs to be asked so am gonna ask it.... Will this update finally allow us to make phone calls with our tab 8.9 and 10.1 or will it still be just a crappy telephony not supported blimey notification.

If that feature ain't supported then whats the point celebrating the upgrade... (Personal view)

Any1's who's heard or knows sumthing about someone whose heard could educate us, or for those of us in canada: please test this out after the update and inform us if we are meant to celebrate or be complacent. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] khemical7:
Well, i can't get connected via usb to look for the update, so i guess it's up to someone who can to let us know when it's in, and hopefully package it up into an file we can use odin to flash

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
HC 3.2 only works with MTP, and methinks Kies has an issue there with some versions of the P7510, one of which I am a lucky owner. I have installed, reinstalled, cleaned, jumped through hoops, poked and prodded, to no avail. Ah well, hopefully the OTA will come soon enough. I am not sure if the/your P7500 is included in the ICS-path. I heard conflicting stories. What's a 7500R compared to bare-bones 7500? Rogers?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] khemical7:
I'm not actually sure if there's any difference at all between 7500 and 7500R. All of the stuff i've used has just said 7500, havent had any problems other than this kies issue

Personally I would wait for XDA to release a rooted and cleaned up ICS ROM.

You just might get stuck with some weird bootloader that prevents you from flashing your rom.

remove pershoots' oc

Hello folks.

I'm running the "stock" rom, rooted and oc'd

So I read that I need to revert to stock rom in order to get the OTA ICS.

Another member asked how to unroot - I got my answer on that from one of you - now downloading stock rom from SamMobile.

Now my question is, do I need to "remove" pershoots' kernel before going stock rom or does ODIN + Stock Rom will remove that?

If I do need to remove the OC, can you help me on how to do that?

Thank you
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] vsniperii:
if your on the stock rom it should update without you making any changes. Will loose root and all your mods though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] afuhnk:
Awesome. I thought I had to unroot and un-oc.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Towle:
I may work, but I'll tell you, I personally would never accept an OTA while rooted. It's a brick waiting to happen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] khemical7:
So i see lots of people reverting to stock and getting ready for the ota update, can anyone point to a proved instance of it actually being downloaded and installed? Is ANYONE on official ics on their p7500 yet?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Towle:
It hasn't even been officially announced yet. And I think it's only the 7510 that's supposed to get it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] afuhnk:
Ok back to my original question then.

Will un-rooting (Odin + SamMobile P7510UEKMP) cancel/remove/undo Pershoots' kernel all at once?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Towle:
Yes, that will return you to complete stock. rom/kernel/recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] afuhnk:
Thank you very much for clearing that up.

Now to wait patiently for this ota upgrade.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jmitr:
Errrr, yes it has, By Samsung Canada on their website (.ca not .com) and the "official" announcement simply said Galaxy tab 10.1, it did not name a specific model. Why do you think everyone on here is so excited and there are 9 pages of waiting????

Speaking of which, I am sure one of us Canuckleheads (Canadians) will post on here with a screenshot and detailed info when the update actually hits, really posting "any news"..."anyone have it yet" etc is not needed.

The original announcement said May 01, then they updated to "starting this week", then Bell and Samsung both announce the Bell S2 May 03 (tomorrow), so I expect the first tablets will be........sometime in the future!!!!!!!

Patience guys, soon we'll all be *****ing about what the update broke!!!!!!!!!

carriers?

I'm not sure I understand the concept of updates through carriers.

I have a 10.1 wifi only tablet. No carriers involved.

Why should I "wait" for a "carrier" when I don't have one (other than my wifi connection).

From what I understand, when I push "check for updates", I am assuming that my tablet connects to Samsung directly.

Why am I getting "No update available"? Rhetorical question, as I'm sure Samsung is holding off for some reason that no one here knows.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Towle:
There's absolutely no reason we shouldn't have the update. Samsung just wants to make as much money as they can off of the new tab, as ICS is the only real upgrade from our tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xdapao3:
The exact same holds true for my unlocked, "carrier-free" G.Tab 10.1 3G.

Wi-Fi or 3G, this carriers-slow-down-the-update-process is BS since in most markets phones, smartphones and tablets are also sold in "carrier-free" versions and in some markets, like Italy for example but I believe in most of Europe as well, the carrier-free versions actually make up the BULK of the market.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] afuhnk:
a bit off topic but...

Kies... I can connect / sync / import and export just fine over wifi but "Cannot start service on the device" when connected via USB.

I was trying to see if kies would find the update but it says that firmware upgrade is only available when connected using the usb cable.

Damn you, Samsung!

-- Edit

Stock Rom, Unrooted (rather: de-rooted). USB Debugging + NonMarket Apps UNCHECKED.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Yep, welcome to the club. My old stock 16GB P7510 never ever wanted to connect to Kies (was not recognised by Kies over USB only, but was by everything else) whatever I did, and a new stock 32GB P7510 connected just like that on the same host. No update yet, tho. After having done a factory reset on the 16GB it seems Kies can now detect that machine, but now the roles are reversed and the stock 32GB P7510 is no longer detected, but the 16GB still is.

I can only say that Kies is really a POS and the whole setup there stinks.

The good thing about this is that I can confirm that, when it still worked, no new firmware was available over Kies/USB -TODAY- for either one... Not very rewarding that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] afuhnk:
Well.. After a "troubleshoot connection issue" + reboot, it no longer says "Cannot start service..." BUT it's been trying to connect to the device for 45 minutes now.

Maybe they are f**** sh*t up on purpose. So they can tell Apple "look, drop the lawsuits, our product and support is **** anyway"
