Stock ICS LE1 Firmware rooted and latest CWM recovery v6.

Tip: Doing this on custom rom is not a good idea :\
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] scottx .:
Why's that ? Most who use this run custom ROMs.

Sorry if this is a noob question, I just got my tab last week and rooted it. What is the purpose of resetting the flash count?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] mymeatb18:
Well before u start slamming ur head against a wall how about u read it and tell me if u find the purpose of clearing the count.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] John_Br:
When you've flashed a custom rom and need technical help because of a problem, your you will lose your guarantee because the counter is not zero. It is not allowed within the guarantee to flash the tab.

Grtz,

cm 10.2 can't see flash counter

hi there

i'm on cm10.2 with cwm recovery and cm kernel. I wanted my warranty back for some repair job.

When i boot to download mode i just see an android and "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" is written under it. There is nothing else on the screen. What should i do??? How can i see my flash counter??

Also i read in the link below that samsung keeps 2 flash counters one for rom and other for recovery

link : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2107324

so will triangle away take care of both??

also once the steps i will follow is

1) install triangle away in my cm 10 .2 installation and reset the flash counter.

2) flash stock firmware from my region from sammobile.

Anything else???

Thanks and sorry for the long post :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
for starters which device do you have?

there are some which dont have a flash counter, e.g. Galaxy S Wifi 5.0

can you maybe take a photo of the device on the DL mode screen, so we can see it clearly?

Regards, My1
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] a1shakes:
here's the pic

I have a p3100 tab 2 running cm 10.2 with stock cm kernel and cwm recovery.

I have used odin only once t flash auto-root , cwm was through rom manager and everything subsequent was through cwm.

And here's a pic of the screen
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
did you enter the DL mode normally by the key combo? coz on my P3110 (the same just without 3G) I have a DL counter and everything.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] a1shakes:
finally got it

Yup that was it. I was using the reboot to download mode. now by using the keys i got custom binary: YES(count=1).

So now as i am having cm 10.2 right now. So i should probably use triangle away to reset the counter and then flash stock samsung from my region to get back warranty. Anything else i'm missing.

or is it better to use triangle away on a stock rooted rom with stock kernel.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] My1xT:
I'd rather get first on a Samsung Stock with Root, and such then run TA then check your counter and flas non-rooted Stock and Wipe. IF the System Status in the Setting->Device info -> Status is Official then be Happy.

I didnt use TA on customs since I didnt use Customs (especially non-TW ones) on my Note 2, which had several TA sessions...
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] Nick_Slaughter:

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] MrCHUPON:
[Q] Is there a "dual-boot" or "safe partition" recovery like Safestrap out there?

Hi all, first post here so I'm preparing myself for mallets to the head.

I do apologize if this question is redundant, but I did a few cursory searches trying to find out whether or not there exists any type of utility that allows you two "partitions" (in quotes because I'm not entirely sure that terminology is technically correct, but it's the closest analog my Windows-raised brain can muster) so that you can use one for your stock ROM and the other for flashing Custom ROMs and basically wreaking any kind of havoc you wish?

Safestrap is what I use for my Droid Bionic. It was mentioned here in another dev thread, I believe. It locks down one partition, which it calls "non-safe", not allowing you to flash anything to this area (although you can restore any backups you took of this non-safe partition), but you are free to do whatever you want on the other partition. (It uses CWM as its base I believe.) Its existence has saved my hide many a time when I was feeling mischievously experimental with my Bionic and I'm hoping I can use it to test out the handful of A100 custom ROMs out there (while keeping my daily driver safe) before I "settle" on a good one.

(Caveat is that I'd have to replace TWRP which I like quite a bit.)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
As far as I know nothing like that is available for the a100s, its pretty much all used in one way or another. Closest is the backup and restore of twrp and cwm recoveries. A500 has dual boot now, but we will likely never see that on our stuff. I won't say never, because you just never know and this is xda after all.

Hi all, i have problem getting the free promotion Transformer movie. But I am able to get the US$25play store credits. Anyone knows why?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
Anyone please?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dannydeez:
The pop up on your screen told you why you cant download the movie. Your location says hong kong, for some reason google must have some kind of restriction on which countries can download certain content.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
My Nexus7 is imported from US. I used US VPN and already received Google Play $25 credits. So for movie is different? I thought this is the same bonus for US Nexus7.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dannydeez:
The only thing I can think of is that google can still tell what country you are downloading the movie from.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dottat:
Or he chose Hong Kong during setup... and needs to change his location that way. Also, you might want to disable GPS too :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
I didn't turn on any GPS when i turned on the US VPN. Or maybe my VPN failed? Any other better VPN can share? Or I need to reset factory again? @@
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vmallder:
Hello,

I am in the process of rooting my Kindle Fire. I have followed all of the directions in the How-To guide and I've run into a problem that I can't solve. I've had several problems along the way, but with perseverance I've been able to get past them.

I'm on step 6 of the section entitled "Rooting the stock software". Since its getting late, and this process has taken me much longer than I expected, and I haven't decided which ROM I want to load, I decided to just root the stock software and call it a day. I am down to the final step in the process of rooting the stock software and I'm stuck.

When I execute the command in step 6:

adb shell idme bootmode 4000​

to set the bootmode back to normal, I get the following error:

/sbint/sh: idme: not found​

I have searched the forums for a similar error and haven't found any posts by anyone with the same problem.

I am doing this from a PC running Windows XP

All of the adb command have worked just fine up till now.

The "adb shell" command works fine. It seems to be the parameters to the command that are causing it to choke.

My current $PATH is /sbin as indicated by the command "adb shell echo $PATH"

Does anyone have any ideas? And what exactly is "idme"?

Thanks in advance, and I will be posting (once I'm finished with this process) many many thanks and kudos for the wonderful rooting instructions that are posted on this forum.

Valerie
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
idme is the program that reads/sets a number of device parameters from/to the NVRAM. Things like the serial number, wi-fi MAC address, and others reside there. In your example, idme is setting the bootmode that tells the bootloader how to proceed in the boot process. The following should explain the problem you are having and how to work around it...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29186989&postcount=157

I've reported the problem to the developer and hopefully it will be resolved with the next release.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BretonGirl:
As far as I know they are a different build than the other tabs and will not be updated. You might be able to do it yourself with Odin.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pershoot:
if you do not want to lose your unlocked and fastboot enabled bootloader, do not flash the odin package as is. remove the bootloader.bin from the package and/or create yourself a CWM zip and flash.

you can use any of the HC zips i created in the past as a guide if you go the CWM route. i believe you can also find CWM flashables for it in the dev section.

however, if you get a rolling screen, you will have to modify the LCD output accordingly in the kernel and use that, so it will be compatible with your current bootloader. you can reference this in the galaxy-2636 kernel sources on my github.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] IamRhinoceros:
Short answer: The Google I/O Version of the GT-7510 is supported by Google and not by Samsung. Samsung will not be updating it or posting an OTA update. If it will be updated, it will be directly from Google.

--

Longer answer: I spent about 3 hours on the phone with 6 Samsung techs on 16AUG2012 to get that answer. The group in charge of wifi tablets doesn't handle the Google I/O tablets, and they refer you to the cellular group. The cellular group then tells you that since the tab doesn't have a cell chip, it's not in their realm. In the end, Level 2 support on the cellular group had the answer above.

His recommendation was to "search the internet" for a custom rom and flash with that. He then reminded me that the tablet is out of warranty, so flashing isn't going to void anything. I agreed, but I can only imagine how many devices he's caused people to brick if he tells everybody that.

He also went on to say that Google is preparing their next flagship tablet and it won't be a Samsung device, it'll be an Acer device. When probed, he revealed it will be smaller than the 10.1" tab and it will be out sometime around holiday season 2012. I then told him the Nexus7 was already out and he was really confused.

If anyone else wants to try, the phone number for the cellular group is 1-877-652-4507. If they try to forward you to 1-800-SAM-SUNG, just ask for a manager or level 2.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stinky73:
What do you mean by stock? Vanilla android as in 3.0 and 3.1 as we originally had with these lovely I/O tabs, (so the last "Google supported" roms date from over a year ago now) or the later touchwiz offerings from Samsung not rooted etc? The I/O tab is a 7510 but with a nice exclusive back panel.

If you're still running3.1 you really are missing out on using the potential and power of this great device and can use any 7510 roms on it....

Mine is running 4.0.4 admittedly with touchwiz ( though Samsung have now 'toned it down' and it is far less cartoon-like) and it still remains one of the best performing and my most preferred tab (have zoom, transformer 101 and transformer prime ( complete cr*p).) It is rooted but of course you don't have to do that but even so gives no problems with films or dem that I have seen..

I downloaded latest Gt-p7510 ics rom from Samfirmware and flashed through Odin and it is now really flying and everything works tres bien:)

Screenshot attached showing movies works if that's what you mean by DRM etc...

I really can't recommend it strongly enough.... it's one of the earliest and best tabs which easily runs the latest iteration of android

Enjoy!! ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xTONEx:
Even tho the official Roms for this device have been close to untouched, there was some Samsung things in there stock. When I had to ship my io tab in I had to use a special number but it was still Samsung. All past updates have been thru Samsung not google. The guy I spoke to also told me the io tab was suppose to b updated to ics. But that was months ago and we see how that turned out. Just flash the one for the retail tabs and take precautions for ur bootloader. I flashed it and now I'm not locked anymore but I also don't have fastboot anymore (which I don't care about anyways.) All DRM stuff will work fine with the retail roms and touchwiz on ics isn't all that bad either

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Macrodroid:
"then its version dependent (he is using a different base rom then me) unless its an option in "suite tools" (which is just j4n87 and monarx code by another name ￼ )

if it was a simple fix id implement it (or would have already), i doubt he actually *fixed* anything to make that work...probably just works as is

id like to clear something up now before i put it to bed as well: very few people are ultimately responsible for the vast majority of things that work in sense4 on this phone...chrisch and the virtuous team deserve the lion's share of the credit for things like: m10 resizing, full button backlight fix (well original one, there are other vivo/w ones now), and many .35 kernel related fixes no longer needed...and myself (this isnt an "ego" thing...its just reality)

people can say they dont/havent taken anything from my roms specifically, but so many fixes that arise in other roms are taking bins/libs/mods from ---...beyond compare :good:

i have read stuff posted in *other* forums...i dont sit around f5 ing them, but i read them when stuff is pointed out to me...and i get shots taken at me indirectly or otherwise for just asking one thing: that people properly credit where they get stuff from...as this is a huge issue in the android world, that many refuse to follow"

I'd like to provide an opinion on this post (won't say the thread or dev, but you know who you are)... If this seems out of line or inappropriate, then by all means have it deleted...

[Rant]

Lately I see this kind of talk more and more in the community... Android has been around for some time now, so there's bound to be occasional reuse if mods/hacks implemented elsewhere... sometimes the original creator of said mods has gotten lost over the years... But, when I hear devs gripe that someone used "their" lib or soneone copied their "jar" file, I can't help but think of Apple... Google owns the source, devs modified it. The mod itself doesn't constitute ownership of the file... Xda is supposed to be a community built on sharing sources to enhance growth. Some devs are definately more knowledgeable than others, but that doesnt mean that other "less skilled" developers don't contribute.

This isnt a shot at anyone, just saying we all need to learn to share the toys and help those less developed to grow with the community... Taking these "ownership" stances and "Apple" tactics doesn't justify the means to that end...

Nuff said...

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
This is a very good point, but also keep in mind there are a lot of people who take something from another ROM that was made by someone who slaved over it and finally figured out a fix and then stick it their ROM and claim it an original fix. Credit is more of showing respect than anything else. No one benefits from this stuff other than the end user. But don't do stuff to make the devs wanna leave and leave us in the dust.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
you clearly missed my point :rolleyes:

its not the ownership and usage that is a problem, its properly crediting where you get stuff from

heres the simple fact: if you take a fix from someone else's rom, you credit where it came from..

how hard is this? i mean really

since your singling me out, ill single out eclipticsense or whatever its called now

for awhile during its updates, whenever something was fixed...there was never credit to who the fix came from

ie, lowveld fixed browser downloads for the sense 4.0 defined roms...i implemented it the fix from the desire s...hawk took the browser.apk from ukb and didnt say where it came from just mentioned that it was fixed

etiquette dictates you go: *credit to lowveld for browser download fix (in your op)

and the vast majority of the tweaks implemented recently in that rom came from just take the methods from ukb and changing "tweaks" to "suite_tools" in the defintion

in some cases it was just taking apks from ukb and changing that line...like taking the mms.apk from ukb and actually having duplicate methods in the smali (tweaks and suite tools lol)

but was there credit to either pkmn/venom for the code i implemented? no....was there credit to me for porting it in (and in many cases modding it to work right)? no

virtuous team wasnt even mentioned in the credits over there until recently, despite all the things they fixed prior to m10 resizing

if that rom had been released on xda or rootzwiki with the op in the shape its in, it would have been reported and closed quickly...but since its on its own site, that can exist

i had no problem with sharing stuff w/ hawk...and in fact never said no when he asked to use something for months, whether it was lockscreens/fusion/etc...all i asked (about 20 times) was that he properly credit where he was taking stuff from, and time after time he didnt...i did find it amusing to diff his updates vs ukb updates and see that 90% of changed bins/libs/files came from ukb, but w/e

the tweaks implementation was the last straw and i was finally done

if you dont site work on a term paper/essay/research paper you are in a world of trouble....think of a rom that way
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Krishna.tungal:
That's absolutely correct. the person's hard work need to be recognized, Stealing is not good...

mentioning where it came from gives some more push to that person and he will be more productive :).
