[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shawn:
My phone has been having major issues with charging lately. My charger is a little wonky, but its been doing fine. Last night it was on charge, underclocked to 1k mhz. It went from 84% to 79% whole idle and charging. I thought fuel gauge might be off so I reset it. Went to 69% then charged to 74% turned it off and charged ALL NIGHT and turned on to have 76% is it my battery or charger?

Edit: charged some in school, and the app "Battery Monitor Widget" showed +23mAh for an hour or so last night while on. In class right now, and its still losing charge at -323mAh. Not sure what to do, as I really need my phone.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Hello *,

I need to install ICS or anything newer on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G P7500XXKG7. Stock roms stopped at Honeycomb.

I know there are lots of howtos out there, but I've read lots of them and I'm still stuck with Honeycomb.

I've successfully rooted the tab. I've installed Rom Manager (not sure if it is absolutely necessary, but those guides seem to lead you in that direction). I can "adb moo" all day long and all the rest.

My problem is that Rom Manager does not recognize my tab model and so does not install a recovery itself. I've downloaded what I suppose to be a recovery compatible with my device from droidbasement.com, untarred the recovery.tar.md5 file, obtained a recovery.img file, adb-pushed it in

/mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/download/download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.1-p4wifi.img

so that Rom Manager may think that's the p4wifi file it downloaded itself and it may use that... except it doesn't.

The question is: how do I manually install the recovery in Rom Manager without using windows crapware? I "only" have linux (heck, shouldn't be windows users to complain they "only" have windows? Android is linux based after all...), I can copy files wherever it's needed, I only miss one information: where should I copy recovery.img file in order to make Rom Manager recognize and boot into it?

Thanks in advance

Lucio.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
First, currently there are stock ics 4.0.4 roms. You can download them from sammobile.com and flash it via odin. Second, you have the 3g version, so you should be downloading p4, p4wifi is for the wifi only version. Lastly, you don't need to untar the file. Just flash it via odin or mobile odin. Though i recommend using odin since mobile odin fcked up my tab before.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Thanks for the news. Can you please provide a link to my firmware at sammobile? I've searched for it but I couldn't find it.

.

You see, Odin does not work without windows... however that shouldn't be a real problem, seems that heimdall is a good alternative.

I know, but I was trying to trick Rom Manager (which apparently does not support p4) by overwriting its p4wifi recovery file with the p4 one (it does support p3, but I don't feel like trying random bits).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
Just go to sammobile.com, click firmwares, key in all your details and enter. Keep in mind that u have to be logged in to download.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Already tried that. The problem is that XXKG7 does not show up in the results and I don't know if I can safely use the rom for a different model.

I can't post links, but if you wanna try, just select Tablet/Android/GT-P7500 - Galaxy Tab 10.1/any Italy option (though mine is from H3G).

Is there a way to search by "XXKG7" on sammobile? Tried the search box but it finds nothing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
I believe the XXKG7 is 3.2. The model number is different in ics. Besides, you can also use other countries rom. The only difference is the language. So if the rom has italian language, then you can use that also. On a side note, i wouldn't recommend using your countries rom because of the deep sleep problems. Head down to the development forum, there is a stock ics rom from czech republic which fixes the deep sleep problem. I'll try to find a link for u. Give me a moment.

Edit: here it is. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2219964

download the rom from that thread and flash it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Thanks for looking it up for me. I've downloaded the file (7z format), unzipped and obtained a .tar.md5 file. I abandoned heimdall, it seems it does not support my device, and borrowd a windows notebook from a friend so that I can use Odin.

Odin recognizes my p4 when connected in recovery mode (but not in download mode, e.g. when "Download" is flashing). Anyway I assume this is ok.

Now the problem is: Odin shows 5 file choosers, namely PIT, BOOTLOADER, PDA, PHONE and CSC. Which is the correct one? Where should I put the file I downloaded?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
PDA is the one you need :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Thanks. Unfortunately it does not work. Here is the output from Odin:

<ID:0/023> Added!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> P7500XWMPJ_deepsleep.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished successfully..

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1 )

Now I suspect that the fact my device is being recognized only in recovery mode is not ok at all... even then, I do not know what to do next...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
There is another way. Toldo has made a flashable zip of that ROM in his stock ics rooted, deodexed, and zipaligned thread. Here's the link. q.gs/4BYrw. Flash it from any custom recovery. Make sure to make a full wipe just in case to avoid any problems. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Sorry to ask probably trivial questions, but how do I install a custom recovery given that Rom Manager does not support my p4 (any p4), but it only p4wifi?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
ROM manager isn't the only way to flash recoveries. Use Odin or mobile Odin to flash. (In Odin hit PDA also.) Or if you know how to use adb or terminal(which I don't think you know given this question), rename recovery file to recovery.img

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 PM ----------

Download cwm recovery from droidbasement
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucrus73:
Odin doesn't connect in my case, recall?

I do know how to use both adb and a terminal, I stated that in my 1st post, but you led me down a different path.

What I do not know (what I didn't know until your last post) is the place where I should put the recovery.img file. Now the dd command you posted shows the correct place is the mmcblk0p2 partition, which is basically what I was asking for in my first post. So, before calling my words into question, please take the time to read what I'm asking for:

Ok, maybe Rom Manager is not exactly required to boot into the custom recovery, but the question seems very clear to me anyway.

Whatever, it doesn't really matter, you helped me a lot after all, it's only a bit troublesome writing lots of details in the questions only to find out that people do not bother reading them...

Now that I know the correct place, the next question arises: how do you know that's the correct place? I mean, fstab says nothing about it. Where the fact that "power+volume down" boots mmcblk0p2 and not something else is written? Or is there a magic dictionary of tablet models and corresponding recovery partitions out there?

Yes I know, already downloaded that, it's where my 1st post recovery.img file came from... :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
If you know how to use adb, just do the commands I posted. I copied them from kasper_h's infamous AOKP thread, so I don't think there will be anything wrong.

I'm sorry I didn't read your first post thoroughly. Its been awhile that I last read your first post that I forgotten what you wrote.. :(

If you want to know more about mmcblk0p2 stuff, I suggest you ask the experts in this forum since I don't know sh*t about this stuff. :D

Thanks in advance. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DubelBoom:
I'm also looking for something like this :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
That is because generally the memory cards are less. So you can't write it so quickly to them.

A normal user can't determine whether his card is good enough or not. So samsung decided to leave it out.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarionCast:
I'm not asking why this is happening. I'm asking if there's a way around it. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Use Directory bind

Then bind DCIM folder. Then you need not to select ext sd card for single shot too. Whatever you will capture, it will save to ext sd, though camera understand it is in internal memory.

Ok heres an interesting question im a big gameplayer and not many games run on samsung galaxy ace now i have it rom'd already with 2.3.5 and its stable fast enough and everything works BUT the games are boring and theres not alot on offer from google playstore so is there a stable rom that wud help gameloft games run better and wud open up more google playstore apps and games
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper The Ripper:
Do you think it is an interesting question, really?

Galaxy Ace has got an ARMv6 processor, Adreno's 200 GPu and only 278 RAM mb, so you can't ask to your device for playing games as GTA V... if you want play games buy a console

Stocks rom are the best for gaming. You can play amazing games as Aralon, Earth Legend, Mass Effect, Enernal Legacy, Chaos Rings and other so don't ask for oranges to apple's tree xDDD

Could you write in a more formal style? Sometimes I don't undestand soz, cud, ov, iv,...I think you write quite quickly ;)

That's simple, definetly I am sure Dark Knight Rises isn't compatible with S5830, well I posted a link where you can check if your device model is compatible or not.

I asked you if you have other device, when Google account is activated, most of the app recognize it especially the browser which automatically offers products relatec with the devices associated to the same account...

Dark Knight Rises need ARMv7 processor so, I don't know how you buy it?

If you have a galaxy s3 I9300 just flash the Siyah kernel. It will Root your device and you can make some nice adjustments in the STweaks App. Why it didn`t work with the chainfire Kernel I don`t know. What did Odin say exactly?

You could try to flash it with Odin 1.85, It`s the most common used one.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Siyah gives you more control over the Kernel, so that you can make several adjustments (like over or underclocking of the cpu, so you have better batterylife), while CF auto Root sticks to the Stock Kernel with just Root enabled.

Did you enable USB Debugging before flashing with Odin?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgeskhater:
Yes usb debugging is on
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikep99:
Status normal does not necessarily mean you're not rooted.

Are you sure you have the right file for your phone, and did you read and follow instructions of what to do if the root doesn't "take" first time (re-flash auto reboot unchecked/reboot recovery to trigger installation)?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Ok no one is rude here, but if you were familiar with the XDA Forum then you would know that there are many guys who ask questions like you do and some of them just flash random stuff that is not even intended for their phone and then come asking for help. You are not special and no one knows what experience you have with flashing something on your phone or if you even read the Chainfire thread.

Then second it`s CyanogenMod and not Cyangene mode

third: I already explained to you the difference between CF Auto Root and the Siyah kernel and if you want a kernel that saves battery then flash the Siyah kernel and make adjustments to your CPU/GPU, there are enough tutorials in here on how to achieve greater battery life with a kernel that supports adjustments like underclocking. There are also other Kernels like Perseus that enable high customization to the Kernel that you just don`t have with a Kernel that is fully Stock.

Also did you try all the tips that we gave you?

- Turn everything off that has to do with Kies

- Download Odin 1.85 and use it instead of Odin 3.07

- make sure you have USB Debugging on
