I tried not wiping data and cache, only dalvik cache, no issues. I was coming from stock rooted ICS.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
It is not mandatory to wipe data, but I recommend always a clean installation when moving from ICS to JB. for a better performance and battery life.

Hi I am new here but Ive been following xda for quite a long time. Previously Im on rooted ICS 4.0.4 but today I just flash my G TAB 2 P3110 to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 French (which is featured in first post)

Now its all working fine but I lost my root functionality, I want to root it back but this time my tab is in Jelly Bean so the rooting procedure might be different.

My question to you, do you use this OP in your JB 4.1.1 XEF to root your tab? If so, I think there is no problem since I previously root my tab using this OP on ICS 4.0.4. Just need conformation since brick will cause a pain. TQ
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] NeoAven:
Great!!

thank dude :D, now my gt2 is on jb... :good: updated without problems
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
For all people with root problems or doubts in how to do it, you can root your device after upgrading to XXCLK5 using CF-auto-Root.

Just flash CF-Auto-Root-espressowifi-gtp3110.zip with Odin and after go to this thread and install and run triangle away in your tab.

This app will reset flash counter and will return your binary to Official.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] elsoft74:
Yes, i followed the same process and it worked.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Fotonista:
Hey thank you very much... :victory:

Just rooted using CF-Autoroot. Well can someone share me what apps that very interesting to use? Either apps or games... Im bored because I don't know what to do with my tab as Im not a gamer nor apps collector.

Currently in my tab has:

EZpdf reader

Root associate apps such as busy-box, triangle away, rom manager etc..

thats all.

So I update to JB 4.1.1 but when I start my Tab I have a weird glitch on my screen before Samsung logo appear, the first problem.

The second problem I see on Antutu Benchmark that the screen resolution it's changed to 600 x 976 from 1024x600 that was in ICS 4.0.4.. so what the .. X?! How can I remove the upper status bar .. it's any way? :eek:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] karaern:
I think you have a bad flash. Just download the latest version (french one for 3110) .

Dont think you can remove notification bar in jb. Actually its pretty useful. :cool:

If I want to revert back to Malaysia's ROM, CSC: XME, where could I possibly find that ROM? I have searched at SamMobile but my country was not there :(
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
The weird glitch on startup is normal in this firmware and does not affect the rest, that is great.

I will take a look, but no promises.

Meanwhile, you can also send an email to SamMobile and ask them to include your country rom in their database.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Fotonista:
Hey, thank you very Mr. I'm really appreciate your willingness to help me :highfive:

BTW, I've got an update notification today. So this is the update description I took from SamMobile

PDA: P3110XXCLK7

CSC: P3110XEFCLK2

Version:

Date: 2012-11-23

Regions: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom

This is the zip's name: P3110XXCLK7_P3110XEFCLK2_XEF.zip

I have several questions, updating via air seems fail so I use KIES, KIES download the firmware file too slow. I have experienced this when upgrade from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4. and just now form 0% to 1% took up longer that I expected. It works eventually but took up so long.

So now I have rooted French 4.1.1 flash via Odin and I want to update my firmware manually.

1) What is the correct OP to manually apply this update on my rooted JB? ( I used CF-Autoroot method)

2) From the link above the update zip is 700++ MB of size, is this OTA or new ROM? Perhaps 4.1.2?

Thank you. BTW, from my observation, our current French 4.1.1 got many glitches and untidy UI and customizations. Hope this update will resolve everything.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
I received this update too 8.9 MB ... do I lose my root privileges if I update OTA? :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
Back with news. Well i took a shoot and update to the new patch. It s the 4.1.1 version just with some updates. The glitch from the start up it s gone and the resolution its back to 1024 by 500. No other changes that i can see.

PS I lost my root by doing this update OTA :(
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
If you update by OTA or Kies you will lose root. You have two options:

- update by OTA, Kies or flashing entire rom by odin and re-root again, using cf-auto-root by odin and triangle way to reset the flash counter, or

- update by mobile odin using this md5 and select Enable EverRoot' and inject Superuser (SuperSU). Note: This is only an update so I think you don't need to "Wipe data and cache", only "select Wipe Dalvik Cache".
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] psaez:
I have the option of the update too, 8, 9 mb as a security update...

I hope they launch a new rom with the security update included or we'll have use Odin...

Thanks for the information, Bog2

The new rom that you ask for is already in the first post...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
Is that the 8mb update already?

What do you mean? We already have the jelly bean XEF full firmware with the update embedded to it?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Fotonista:
Apparently no, the update not that 8.9 MB... it is about 705 MB.

---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 PM ----------

Why your screen res too small? it suppose to be 1024x768 right?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
The firmware link that I posted in OP is the full firmware (XXCLK7). It is a new upgrade for the previous 4.1.1. rom.

If you decided to upgrade through OTA it will be only 8mb.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
So I did the OTA update and did lost root. Also, screen resolution is still shown as 600x976 by antutu benchmark although I think antutu itself is bugged since it can't authenticate my tablet.

Where did you check that? Antutu? It still shows the wrong resolution for me even after the OTA update.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
Weird... very weird...

So I was using the XEF XXXCLK5 and applied the XXCLK7 OTA update. Lost root (as expected) and rooted again with CF-auto-root (which triggered flash counter to 1 as expected) in order to get Mobile Odin working again and also Triangle Away.

After that I flashed the full XXCLK7 rom (with wipes, everoot and mobile odin integration, same as a did before when upgrading from ICS to JB) but now I can't search for updates anymore because my device is tagged as "modified". What the?!

One more thing: just noticed after rebooting in recovery that there's an image of a fallen android robot on the ground with a red triangle comming out of a hatch in his body... what the?!

Hey guys, I've just flashed the latest Jelly Bean version via Odin, followed the instructions from the topic and the device just restarted with jelly bean (obviously) and all my data and apps wasn't wiped, the first boot showed something like 'Android is now optimizating your apps' and boom.

Is it normal? Problems in the future?

PS: Sorry for my bad english ;)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
This roms are non-wipe, so you must wipe yourself.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
Same here... I done the update OTA (stupid me) and rooted back using cf-auto-root by Odin and Triangle Away to reset the flash counter but I go back to the ICS 4.0.4 using Mobile Odin until a new release of JB for my country appears and when i open Triangle Away app It's say that I modified the Tab and I have a flash counter of 1... WTF?! Before that going from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 with Mobile Odin it was ok... my tab it's still in warranty.

Can I make a factory reset and not get that warning in Triangle Away.. I don t wanna lose my warranty...:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Enter in Download Mode and see if the flash counter is 1.

A factory reset won't do any difference, you will have to use triangle away again.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
I still have the glitch on the boot.:(
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nmga:
Me too ... :(

Because this was the first time i flashed a rom with mobile odin I got to thinking that it could be anything related to this ...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
Guys, DO NOT FLASH THE OTA UPDATE if you're still in warranty.

I've been trying to get rid of the "custom" status since I did the OTA update.

I tried going back and forth from my ICS 4.0.3 ALD4 ZTO stock ROM and the JB 4.1.1 CLK7 XEF and I have been dealing with flash counter and samsung updates issues eversince.

Even though my flash counter is at ZERO I still can't search for updates. The search dialog takes forever to display any results untill I have to close it myself without any results given.

Besides that, this is the weird recovery I got since then:

UPDATE: KIES won't look for updates either. It says I have the latest firmware (it even displays the actual CSC and PDA version) but when asked to search for new firmwares it says I'm not using a samsung device thus it can't look for updates.

WHAT A FU*K?!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Renan8p:
I've flashed the XXCLK7 XEF and the samsung updates are still working
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
If it says you have the latest firmware, it is normal that we can't look for updates.

Did you try to do it in your device (settings, about your device, updates)?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
How did you update (ODIN?) and did you rooted? What's your device status?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Renan8p:
Yes, Odin. Where can I check the device status?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Settings, about device, status.

Did you rooted?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Renan8p:
It says "Official". I never rooted the tablet
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
Yes. When I went back to 4.0.3 stock ZTO it said I could not look for firmwares because my device was modified. So I upgraded to JB XEF and even though I reseted the flash counter with triangle away (the flash count changed to 1 even though I always use mobile odin) the update check dialog never closes unless I click on it. Besides, device status is "custom" despite what is shown at that photo I posted.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
So I`m not the only one, it has happened with 3 people already. Must be something wrong with mobile odin and this new firmware, I guess...

Do you also have that weird recovery background image with the red triangle?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
I think you both should try the following:

Flash again the first rom for your device using PC ODIN, namely the 4.0.3 rom. This version have all the partitions of the new 4.1.1, including SBL.bin and MLO.

Wipe data and cache

Root it again using cf-auto-root

Reset flash counter using triangle away

Then post the result here.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] king200:
Things I should have don'e differently:

Used Mobile Odin but also was running script to swap, a bad thing. Sdcard and ExSdcard. That causes boot loops that were difficult to stop. Android came up ok and, after freezing the Smanager, Odin knew where stuff was.

I lost my TWRP recovery and got the funny recovery mentioned and pictured in prior posts. It would not flash my TWRP zip file. I want back and used desktop Odin to reroot. I probably had not lost root. I should have just used fastboot to flash the Twrp.img file. Important because my Nandroid backup is done with Twrp.

The counter was incremented by 2 but Triangle reset it. Don't think it makes a difference. I won't be getting ota updated, /system/app/FotaClient is disabled and not that I have a better feel about how to do it, prefer flashing manually.

Is it worth it?...there's gotta be another post to give my opinion.

how long takes the installation from "Flashing OTA Files" mode?

I am updating by the "Flashing OTA Files" mode and still flashing to 10 minutes ago
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
Yes I do have that dead Droid with the red triangle on recovery background in JB 4.1.1. But I downgrade to ICS 4.0.4 from that french JB release and I just don t know why it's change my CSC from Romania to Switzerland AUS (before that all was OK). The dead Droid from recovery background has gone, now it's the normal one (green and the blue thing inside of him), and when I search for updates via Software update it's ok (in JB just take a looooong time for search and nothing happen).. but the Triangle away it show me that my tab it's on Counter 1 and the Binary are modified, I hit the reset flash counter and all it's fine...

PS I just don t know but I think it's something wrong with the JB release (maybe it s a RC, or something....) or the Mobile Odin it's doing something wrong... OR me... I don t know, but before I update to JB I done update to ICS 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 with Mobile Odin and no problems with counter numbers or other stuff...

I just hope that I will not crush my Tab because it's in warranty ~ 2 years and the service stuff will not accept my Tab :((
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
About the CSC Switzerland AUS that you have now, if a the rom that you are flashing does not have your previous CSC, system will chose the first one of that rom. I think you can change it by using this app from Play. That are several reports of successful changes on Galaxy tab wifi
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
Wow THANKS for this nfribeiro!!!! I done installing that app that you recommended, changed my CSC to COS (Cosmote Romania, that was my original firmware), it's restarted and reinstalled the ICS 4.0.4 version of my Tab. All it's like out of the box, no problems in Triangle away, now it's official release and counter it's 0 (zero) :good::fingers-crossed::cowboy::laugh::cool:

Thanks again for this! When you come in RO I will give you 1000 beers :P
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
Thanks for the feedback!

What did you use to downgrade from JB Did you use PC Odin or Mobile Odin? I've only used Mobile Odin with and without everoot and this is what happened:

1- if I downgrade WITHOUT EVEROOT, flash counter shows 1 and I can't update because my device is "modified". So I have to root in order to get Triangle Away working but I still can't update because my device status still appears as "modified"

2- if I downgrade WITH EVEROOT, flash counter shows 1 and I can't update because my device status is "modified". I can't update even if I reset the flash counter with Triangle Away.

So, no matter what I do, my device is now always "modified" or "custom", eversince I used CF-auto-root after installing that 8mb OTA update. This happenes even though flash counter is reset with Triangle Away,
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
So, my steps to downgrade from JB to ICS. I redownloaded the official ICS 4.0.4 COA (in my case) putted on my SD card fire up the Mobile Odin selected the .zip file, then Mobile Odin extract that zip file, reselect the md5 ICS 4.0.4 file from SD card

I SELECT

the EVERROOT (all 3 fields) and

WIPE

(all 2 fields) and hit the Flash now... All this was done in JB 4.1.1 rerooted after that 8.9 MB update using

nfribeiro

steps.

Now in ICS 4.0.4 I saw that my CSC it's in AUT not COA so the Triangle away indicate that my Tab it's modified and 1 in counter. So with the

nfribeiro

help, with that app Samsung Galaxy S / S2 / S3 CSC I changed my device CSC from AUT to COA. The Tab restart itself, reinstalled the ICS 4.0.4 and ta daaa.. it's like out of the box, and rooted too! No dead Droid in recovery background and 0 in counter field of Triangle Away and my binary are official.

--------------------------

That's all I done and thanks for

nfribeiro

help!

PS I don't go again to that strange french JB 4.1.1... I dont know what's that but all my troubles start with that .zip file! When I will see more releases for other countrys I will update.

GOOD LUCK!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
Pretty much the same here... except that CSC did not change for me as far as I am aware though I never actually checked it.

I'm going to try something new and flash my stock firmware with PC odin although I have no idea it makes any difference compared to mobile odin. Then I'll root with some other method besides cf-auto-root.

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Bog2, check your device status in settings, about device, status and see if it is normal?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
In Settings > About device > Status > Device status it's Normal. Why?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Because I made some tests, because of you guys...:cowboy:

1. Reflashed XXCLK7 with pc odin. I lost root and got the dead android in recovery :(

2. Flashed CF-Auto-Root with pc odin. Got flash counter to 1 :( but no more dead android in recovery :o

3. Then Used Triangle Away to reset and flash counter :o but device status was always "changed"

4. Wipe, wipe, wipe... and device status was always "changed" :silly:

4. Reflashed with mobile odin the previous JB (CLK5) and flash counter increased again and device status always shows "changed" :silly:

I didn't flashed 4.0.4. I went directly to 4.0.3 (because this rom have a bootloader inside, such as 4.1.1 XXCLK7), then rooted using the method to root without increasing the flash counter and then upgraded again to XXCLK7 using mobile odin.

Now always is as before. I cannot stay with ICS anymore...

Pros:

- Device status normal

- Flash counter 0 and binary official :victory:

Cons:

- That glitch on the startup, before the logo.:rolleyes:

- No new bootloader because mobile odin don't flash this files (but this is not a disadvantage)

So, the trick is always use mobile odin and never root JB using pc odin because you won't get rid of status changed and in my case, continuous increasing in the flash counter every time I checked (chainfire mention this on his thread) or flashed something

Let's wait for other roms and/or other ways. Stay tune!!!

Over and out!!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
We can't thank you enough for your time and patience :)

My aim really is to get the tablet working fully in stock mode no matter what because my tablet is still in warranty. I will try your steps right now and see what happens but please tell me something: did you make it reseting your tab to "normal"? And did you accomplish that even after rooting? Last but not least, what is this rooting method you mentioned? Is it the one made with a .bat file through command prompt?

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Renan8p:
Now I'm confused, my device status says Official, and my samsung updates still works but I got the dead droid in recovery and I don't know how to check the flash counter. Did I lose my warranty?

Edit: My CSC changed too
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
If you return to 4.0.3 with pc-odin you will get device status normal. The *.bat method as you call only works on the 4.0.3. Then, if you flash the last firmware with mobile odin, you will maintain that device status in normal-

The problem is that not all the files are flashed with mobile odin such as sbl.bin (bootloader). This file may solve that glitch issue in the reboot but maybe (I am not sure) can also avoid triangle away to reset flash counter. And sometimes the firmware version is the cause for the "modified" status.

But one thing we can be sure, we can always return to 4.0.3 and everything will be fine.

Now I am thinking on the supersu pro with the OTA survival. To try it we must purchase that app, downgrade to LK5, do the OTA and maybe we will keep the root. Sounds good but this app costs 2,37 € :(
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
You lose your warranty when you root or when you flash a firmware of a different country of yours. I am Portuguese and if I go to assistance with a french firmware, they will notice for sure.

To solve it you will have to flash your firmware again or you can root it and change CSC.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] zunga:
AT LAST! :) :) :)

I flashed my stock ZTO 4.0.3 with PC Odin and absolutely everything is now stock! :D :D

Flash count is 0, device status is "normal" and samsung updates work!

I'll try rooting with the "bat" method now.

NEWS: YES!!! back to stock and rooted! Device status: NORMAL :D

NEWS²: after a few reboots, device status changed to "modified" but I was still able to search for updates on the tablet. Besides, I reboot again and it went back to "normal". :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Renan8p:
How can I root this rom without changing the device status? Also, if I root it to change CSC I'll lose my warranty too, right?

Btw, sorry for so many questions...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Great News!!!

I downgrade to XXCLK5 and install SuperSu Pro from play and then I've enable the OTA survival mode in settings.

Then I accepted the OTA and lost root. But I went to settings in SuperSu app, disable Superuser, then enable it again and the root is back :victory:

Yes, this works on the tab.

Status normal and flash counter 0!!!

Update: got the dead droid on the recovery.

Reflashed recovery bu mobile odin and got dead droid again and Status "Modified"

I give up!!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] karaern:
Just cannt understand why younppl are tring to get normal status when either way you are modifing the tab:confused: any way you will have modify it for better tab usage or just leavenit as it was in the box.
