updated with odin; everything went smooth (md5 check etc.) at first reboot after installation tab is freezed on samsung logo without going ahead: whats wrong? never happened before on tons of odin updates with several devices....
[Galaxy Tab S General] marti201:
Just a simple question, I've never flashed anything before.

I just downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and got a .zip archive. It has a .tar.md5 file inside. Which one do I need to put in AP?
[Galaxy Tab S General] NeWONEx:
And applications in settings has changed to single menu as in AOSP. If you can take screenshots! Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S General] meawww:

Hm i came from lolli phoenix rom. Try to factory reset then use odin
[Galaxy Tab S General] roselanguste:
When you not sure about flashing, then take the easy way for updating Firmware! There is an other PC-Programm from Samsung for this, named Smartswitch! Its an easy Programm there You can nothing make false! And it Updates also Rooted devices without Problems! Samsung-Smartswitch is almost the easyest way to do this!

(Please forgive my not so good English!)
[Galaxy Tab S General] marti201:
I'd love to update it through SmartSwitch, but the firmware is not available in my country yet. Last year it took almost 5 months after the first country that received Lollipop to get it in my country.

If you've flashed a Samsung device before, please tell me which file I have to put in AP - the .zip or the .tar.md5 inside the archive?
[Galaxy Tab S General] roselanguste:
The .tar.md5 in AP section (Mark only by AutoReboot and F.ResetTime, not else!) But when You take a other Firmware as that for Your country, i am not sure, but that could maybe a Problem!

Roger's 805W

Rogers 805W install,

1) Wipe Data/Cache

2) Flash T805WVLU1BOD7

3) Rename the "T805XXU1CPH5_T805OXA1CPH6_T805XXU1CPH5_HOME.tar" file by removing ".md5"

4) unpack tar (I use 7zip)

5) repack the tar without modem.bin and sboot.bin. (Again I used 7zip)

5) Odin new file.

6) do new device setup/check apn settings. Roger's APN Settings

Then go about your business with flashing recovery, root, yadda yadda. Seem's to work ok.

[Galaxy Tab S General] stinka318:
Flash this and you will lose recovery and root it will be back to stock....
[Galaxy Tab S General] NeWONEx:
No, you just want to copy all your data somewhere sdcard or your PC and download the rom. Use TWRP to wipe System, Cache and date. Then use Odin to flash the firmware.

BTW your modem and bootloader are going to update by flashing full firmware.

You can flash TWRP and root your device.

[Galaxy Tab S General] roselanguste:
Sometimes the Updates are not in the hole country by the same time! It comes sometimes region by region!? But You can workaround that with Kies and Smartswitch! Both programms are from Samsung, and Smartswitch is very easy! Only Start Smartswitch on a PC, and then Plug the Tab-S with USB-Cable on the PC, and after a few seconds You become a message from Smartswitch, that there is a Firmware-Update avaible, and that You wish to Update yet! - Click yes, and Smartswitch makes the rest for You! Even on Rooted devices with Custom-Recovery! And You can make a Backup of the hole System also in Smartswitch, before updating Firmware, that You are can go back, in case something goes wrong! Very Easy!

[Galaxy Tab S General] jokkeri77:
I also tried to root my T-805 using CF Autoroot (6.0.1) but got the nice message ("recovery is not seandroid enforcing") after flashing it with Odin. Quite a new feeling neither being able to boot into recovery nor to download mode. :eek:

I managed to get it working again after an initial panic phase :) by doing the following:

1) Open back cover and disconnect battery for a few minutes

2) While holding the home and vol-down keys, reconnect battery (and keep holding the keys)

3) Additionally to home and vol-down keys, press the power button until the prompt to enter Download Mode appears (volume up)

4) Flash stock rom

There may be easier ways, but this worked for me. No root for me, but relieved to at least have a working tablet again... :)

Not sure what you're waiting for here?

To flash the adoptable storage patch you need to install twrp.

Once you have installed twrp you can flash supersu.

This will give you root. You can then flash the adoptable storage patch.

Go to the twrp thread in the dev section for more info.

Hello,

I have huawei mate 8 4/64GB Chinese version (Build: NXT-AL10C00B197, EMUI Version: 4.0, Marshmallow 6.0)

I have noticed when i try to add a new contact (From the Dialer / Contacts App / Whatsapp) doesn't matter, the app crashes.

Tried Cleaning app data (contacts) , tried factory reset and nothing seems to work.

I also noticed that this happens in other apps like google maps for example when i try to type an address.

So i thought maybe its a language problem, The Chinese version comes with Hebrew support built-in, so i changed it to English (US) and the problem was solved (GREAT!)

But does any one knows how to make it work with Hebrew support ?

I can use English but its not the best solution.
