I have a question to the people who applied OTA update: In my case after applying update Kies says that "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies"... That's strange for me, because was installed original update. Why it is happens?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Have you marked the usb debug mode? It is on or off?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
Tried to enable it - same result:

@Ailir

Kies will never recognise your tablet if you do not select correct CSC for your PDA.it need to be on pair.For e.g you cannot put firmware (pda) for Taiwan and select CSC code for Ukraine.If you don't have phone dialer on menu to input the code *#272*IMEI# for manually selecting your CSC,go to Google Play and download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector&hl=en ,and select the correct CSC for your firmware,and Kies will recognise your Tab after that.Cheers!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
Thanks, but with CSC all fine - I am flashed 4.0.3 firmware which contain my CSC (SEK) (In this case Kies says that no update available now) and then apply OTA update from Sammobile with same CSC (SEK).

One thing what I have - maybe new version of firmware does not uploaded at this moment on the Kies servers, that's why it is cannot recognize updated firmware.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Yes, you are using a firmware that you shouldn't have yet :D
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
^_^

can u upload a rom for italy tnx!!! can i flash a rom of greece with my tablet that i bought here in italy? if i flash the rom to my rooted tab it will back to stock rom? tnx ^_^
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
There is no firmware available for Italy, sorry. If I had the hidswver of Italy I could try...

You can flash any rom you want but if I were you I flashed nordic XWBLH3 (NEE) because it have multi CSC and it have yours (ITV)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Easy way to find HIDSWVER and Product Code of your rom.

1. Install Samsung Kies and connect tab to it (only first time)

2. If you have windows got to regedit and look for CURRENT_USER/software/samsung/Kies/DeviceDB/ and find the folder that have HIDSWVER and ProductCode

with this two maybe we could find your rom in samsung servers :D
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
ah which means i can upgrade to 4.0.4 official even if i dont have an upgrade for my country?

i take a picture from kies...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Yes, you can upgrade to 4.0.4 in few minutes.

And you can also have your country rom for backup. Go to regedit (in your windows pc) and look for hidswver.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
i found the HIDSWVER P3110XXALD4/P3110OXXALD5/P3110XXALD4/P3110XXALD4

i want to restore to stock my tab becoz i had a problem when i rooted it i forgot to open command prompt after it rebooted...

now my tab is very slow and laggy and when it is in standby the screen backlight is flickering...huhuhuhuh.. i've done wipe data at restore factory from cwm but nothing happened...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Ok, tomorrow I will seach for your rom. But I may need also your productcode. It it in the same folder of regedit.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
thank you so much i hope i can fix my tab soon... here is my productcode GT-P3110XXXITV

tnx again...:laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Something I remember. You can also use kies to restore your firmware.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
really? how can i do that?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
I have send you a PM
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
OP updated with Italy (ITV) 4.0.3 firmware.

I have look for it in samsung servers and after that sammobile and samsung-update.com also found it and posted the links.

Is that a coincidence?

Maybe not :victory:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
How you look it? It is for me still secret how to check Kies servers...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
aheheh thanks... finally my ican restore my tab now i hope it will work smooth like the first time i open it ahehehe:p
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] necktru:
I have CM10, and I want to test this 4.0.4 rom, how can I know what CSC is my tab?? Im from Peru
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
If you ever used kies in the pass, you can see it on regedit. If not you can try install from play an app called samsung galaxy S / S2 Csc. At least will show the three letters of your Csc.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
I finally update my Tab to ICS 4.0.4 BLH3 NEE (with Mobile Odin, and keeps my root). I see an increase of battery life time and some games are not crashing like before + I erase some apps that I'm not using and (Samsung stuff, and services) and the occupy memory it's only 275 - 289. I will make some Antutu Benchmark to see a new score (in ICS 4.0.3 BLH2 I get 5421 score, no OC).

I hope to see Jelly Bean soon on this device :fingers-crossed: and the official release. I can't see no release update from Samsung about JB, but maybe will not be the next year :angel:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
I am glad you did...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] pmb86:
Update to ICS 4.0.4 BLH3 NEE

Are there any UI, changes, new apps, on this rom? I'll try to flash with MobileODIN, but i'm satisfied with BLH1.Is the update really worthed?Same on Samsung for not realising ICS 4.0.4 for Romania at the same time with the rest of the regions.:(
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
The Romania Samsung division SUCK!! They don't know nothing (that's the official response I get in a mail), and I even don't see the Tab 2 on samsung.ro site... so that's the care of customers they give!

In other words YES there are some UI changes and the system it's much more stable, and the battery life it's much more bigger, the same with the sound, it's louder now, new apps no, just the Samsung stuff that I don't use, but you have the Play Store so you have there apps.

So if you have the MOdin go to BLH3

. Noroc! :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
tnx for uploading the itv rom... im downloading it now :o
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
We can upgrade with or without mobile Odin.

Everything that you need is in the first post.

Enjoy :cool:
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
yes i saw it aheheh thank you much... do i need to wipe data and restore factory before i restore to stock? i already done it before for now there is nothing on my tab!!!
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Do it after.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
i will use odin to restore bcoz i've rooted it badly...
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Yes, use pc Odin and after go to recovery and wipe.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] lolz_09:
tnx man now my tab run so smooth the idon didnt say pass by it say reset tnx again :laugh:

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] paul p:
Which rom should I use as a base fw for flashing new 4.1.1 ota? UK P3110XXBLH2 would be ok? CSC of OTA says Korea and i'm confused..
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] pmb86:
Meanwhile, i see that there is an 4.0.4 ICS OTA update for Romania on SamMobile.I think that this the official 4.0.4 for our tab.Do i have to update to this in order to keep my guarantee if i have to send my tab in service?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
I can see next CSC's in the 4.1.1 patch: BTU, DBT, ITV, KOR, XEF, XEO, XEU... Will try to apply it to the 4.0.4 BTU now

P.S. BTU 4.0.4 contain same CSC list as it present in the patch. Applying patch and...... it is works, my 3110 now have JB :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] paul p:
Nice, gotta flash it when back to home.

Btw. does it still look like other leaked OTA? I mean phablet UI and stuff..?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
I am unhappy, in About shows 3100 model :(. But it is works anyway
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Bog2:
So... it's fake? Do you see a speed improvement over the ICS 4.0.4?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
Not sure... Becouse it is installed onto 3110 without any troubles. Also all works fine, speed is okay. Seems like it is not fully port from the 3100.

But there at least two issues what I unlike:

1. Don't like bar on top of the screen (Why it is needed, it is loosing work area on the screen)

2. No rotation of home screen, it is always in portrait mode.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
So you installed with stock recovery, right?

Put here some screenshots!!!

Did you rooted before?
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
Yes, installed with stock recovery, device was no rooted

Kies issue

Hi,

I've installed P3110XWBLH3 - 4.0.4 - NEE on GT-P3110-COA (Romania) but Kies doesn't recognize the tablet anymore. Does anyone have this problem?

PS: I can still manage card and internal memory with windows explorer.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
There is an OTA for COA, but I don't know if it was officialy released or if it is a leak provided by sammobile. So I think that for Kies the last version of COA is not the 4.0.4, therefore Kies doesn't recognize. But this is not a problem.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] Ailir:
All fine, this firmware still not present on the servers. It can be easy checked by link:

http://fota-dn.ospserver.net/firmware/COA/GT-P3110/version.xml
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Exactly. For COA the <latest>P3110XXALD4/P3110OXXALD4/</latest>. So be happy and don't complain about Kies.

P3110 Spain

Hi!

Great post, thank you very much!

I'm new in XDA, and I have some questions, hope you can help:

Actually I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3110, Spain, HIDSWVER P3110XXALD4/P3110OXXALD4/P3110XXALD4/P3110XXALD4, and ProductCode PHE (spain). It's rooted and actually i have stock ICS 4.0.3

1.- What is the stock rom of 4.0.4 for my device?

2.- I think mobile Odin Pro is the best solution to keep root. I saw that you mentioned that mobile Odin will be able to install OTA Roms. In that case, wich is the best rom to install?

3.- I'm worried if my tab crash, Could I recover my tab to original stock rom with stock recovery i anything happens?

Sorry if my questions are so simple, but i'm new with android devices.

Thank you very much!!! :D
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] nfribeiro:
Install Baltic LH3 using mobile odin. It have your CSC. Product code did not changed for me (PORTUGAL)

Later I will search for your full PHE rom for garanty purposes, if you want.

Un saludo.

Hi i did go to Xperia Developer thread but it said i can only ask questions in General forums.

So here i am i really need help, i rooted my Xperia Arc and almost nothing is working, i can't turn on the Wifi, mobil network works for a second then the phone shuts down mobil netorks, keypad, etc.

When i start my phone i get: unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped, when i try doing something else i get alot of "unfortunately" messages. please help.

I followed every instruction for rooting i have the 2.6.32.9- DooMKernel, almost all apps are gone and the superuser app have 0 apps in it.
[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
Hi zobar,

There are General & Q&A forums for the Xperia Arc and you'll get users there with the same device, whereas this is a general forum for anything to do with any phone, regardless of make/model/os.

Do some reading in both the General & Q&A sections in this forum...

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=962

If you can't find an answer then start a thread in the Q&A forum, as that's where all questions should be posted. The only place you can't currently post are development forums, but they're only for releasing development work anyway.

Hope you get your problem sorted :)

[General Questions and Answers] KingAmir:
Straightforward answer

Before a more experienced member rightfully closes this thread I will try to help you.

Download flashtool. A simple google search will sort that out.

Install it. The program will have a picture of a lightning bolt as its logo.

Find the stock firmware for your device. Search for that in google.

After downloading the firmware you should see it has a .ftf at the end.

Go into computer then flashtool then firmware. then drag and drop the .ftf into that folder.

Close the folder.

connect your arc.

Open the flashtool program.

Click the bolt icon in the top left.

select the name of the firmware you downloaded in the left panel. it will highlight blue.

Click ok (bottom right).

A box will appear telling you to put your device into flash mode. Follow the instructions it gives.

Once this is done the box will dissapear and firmware will flash.

Finally device will reboot and phone will be back to normal.

Hope it works for you. :good: Please thank me with the button if you appreciate my efforts. Please post in more appropriate places in future and someone will answer quicker. Sorry if this isn't what you wanted.
[General Questions and Answers] zobar:
Thanks alot im going to try it out but, wil that make my phone normal? not root anymore?... if so that kinda sucks, i wish to have a rooted phone.
[General Questions and Answers] KingAmir:
yes it will make it 'normal'. From there I suggest following a youtube tutorial about rooting properly. This way you will avoid bricking your device again.
[General Questions and Answers] zobar:
DO you have any good new karnels? or any guides please? i followed one and bricked it so maybe the guide i used was bad? :S
[General Questions and Answers] KingAmir:
-

Did my unbrick guide work? SO your device is ok now? :eek: I hope so.

Here is a mini guide about phone terms. Sorry if you know this already.

Rooting is simply giving your phone administrators rights. No roms or anything. Once rooted you could install clockworkmod which would allow you to install a rom that would work on you STOCK kernel (the one that comes with xperia).

A kernel is a set of instructions to a phone. different kernels or custom kernels (not stock) enable you to flash some more advanced roms as not all roms will work on STOCK kernel.

Also, in most cases, different kernels allow overclock and undervolt. These things allow you to make your device run faster.

Unlocking your bootloader is required to install a custom kernel.

Unlocking a bootloader can be difficult and

if done wrong, can brick your device completely.(make it useless like a brick)

This is why I did not do it until a few days ago - because I was scared.

If I was to recommend a rom, I would say cyanogenmod (cm for short). They focus on getting the galaxy nexus android - pure version.

You flash kernels with flashtool. But you MUST have an unlocked bootloader to do this.

If your device is fixed now i would say google cyanogen mod 9(ice cream sandwich) or 10 (jelly bean). CM10 is less stable (not everything works) than cm9. but cm10 is more fun. make sure you look at guides for your device and not any random one.

Sorry for the lecture. Thank if you found this useful. I appreciate it. Sorry if this isn't what you wanted.

---------- Post added at 10:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 PM ----------

if you do not understand anything or want to ask anything else please feel free. Also you can check out videos of roms for your device on youtube and choose one you like. then look for tutorials on xda or youtube.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] panzermensch:
What is Video Hub and why is it always running even after I kill it? What is the purpose of it running all the time? Same question for S Suggest; why is it always running and how do I make it stop?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bigb252:
I disabled those stuff right away. If you're on stock TW, just press and hold the icon (as if to move it) and drag it down to 'app info' tab. When the application information comes up, hit force stop then disable it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rsf2:
Excellent advice. In addition if you want to disable system apps and you are rooted, I recommend the often referenced here Titanium Backup. The paid version lets you freeze (disable) any app, even one's that the above method will not let you disable. Doing this for a fair amount of services that you aren't planning on using can really help out with battery life. If you are rooted, I also recommend the free ES Task Manager as it has the ability to selectively disable services from auto-starting on boot.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blue265:
You should also notice a lot of apps that are always running not just those two. Its how Android works, it keeps it in memory so that it opens quicker. Its not supposed to cause battery drain but there's lots of debate about this. Definitely freeze anything you don't need or at least disable if you don't use. But you'll see a lot of things running in the background using a third party app. Usually its not that big of a deal unless they are using CPU
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] panzermensch:
I tried this, but there is no option to disable. The only other option is "uninstall updates"

I don't want to go in ham fisted and brick the tab so if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.
