Rockin my Tab!

Thanks for the great guide! I did happen to mess it up, but after much trial and error, finally got the Tab to respond and flashed. If anyone is wondering, it is a Bell (Canada) Tab, unlocked to work on Rogers network, and now running smoothly as a phone as well!

In case it helps anyone, make sure you do NOT have anything else selected when you do the second flash in Odin! That's how I managed to royally mess mine up. It was stuck in limbo, with Windows not recognizing it, and Odin adding and removing it every few seconds. Could not be flashed due to this. Then, the battery died since I could not get it out of download mode. Leaving it on the charger (factory) for a few hours charged it up, even though it seemed not to be working. Then I connected it to the PC, and left it there for about 15 minutes, again, even though nothing seemed to be working, until Odin "saw" it. At this point I made sure I followed the directions properly and in less than 10 minutes was a happy camper again!

Best of luck to all that try this, it really is worth it.

Many, many thanks to all of the people that had a hand in posting both the guide, and the rest of the help in this thread!

will this allow 3G and phone calling on Tmobile?
[Galaxy Tab General] StarLog:
This allows voice and 2G on TMOUS.

If your near a hotspot or wifi AP, then you can do video like fring.

Hope this helps, it works great for me.
[Galaxy Tab General] StarLog:
Try going back into download mode and delete data.

Then follow the directions again.
[Galaxy Tab General] StarLog:
I am running ATT branded SGT, with TMOUS SIM, and all I get is voice +2G

We will have to wait for roto or some other chef to fix this.
[Galaxy Tab General] deniro0311:
Not at the same time. Grab Roto's modem switcher, and you will be able to bounce back and forth between "2g calling/2g data" and "no calling/3g data".
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
You will never get 3g with your setup. You will get voice plus edge, as has been stated many times in this thread. It's a hardware limitation that no chef can fix.
[Galaxy Tab General] magnum_touchpro:

[Galaxy Tab General] Alcibiade:
Forget it guys. Now they will block your data access on AT&T if you use your "normal" SIM on your tab

Camera not working most of the time

I followed this guide and everything works well on my At&t Tab except for the camera. Sometimes it works fine but many times the phone won't take photos, then the camera application freezes and when hitting the camera icon again to start it I get an error message saying "Warning - Camera failed"

Even rebooting the tab won't get the camera to work again.

Is there a solution for this?

Yep, It's Still In Russian Language!

I think you left out 1 MAJOR procedure, and that's the direction how to change the language back to English, from Russian. At 38, I don't think I'll be able to pick up the entire language, but I guess now is not a bad time to start.

UPDATE...............I figured it out.

Modify, or Add Onto, the original HOW TO: Go to Settings>Locale & text> Top selection is you're language location. You'll find your language easily and you're done!

Followup???? Can this be an additional add on, if I've already got 2.3.3 Gingerbread, installed?????? Reason I ask, immediately after I installed Gingerbread w days ago, I had the capability to make and receive calls and it wasn't through an SIP. Today it was not working and so I had to do this.

So my question, can the phone capability only portion of this process, be added if I'm running AOS 2.3.

It sucks cause I went back to the information page, to see if the OS had changed,m and yep, I'm back to 2.2, with Froyo.........Insert Sad face here!

[Galaxy Tab General] A. Nonymous:
I just got the notification for the OTA update today. I'm debating on taking it just because I lose root and there doesn't seem to be any way (yet) to root GB. I don't flash ROMS or anything fancy on the Tab and it's mainly my fun device. I find I use root for three things

- Backing up with Titanium

- Disabling Sprint nag screen

- Changing the icon size so they're not so large and cartoonish by editing the build.prop file

I know losing root will break Titanium. This is my device I use for fun so I think I live with that. I'd prefer not to, but I can live with it until the device gets rooted again. The Sprint nag screen and the cartoonish icons that are on the device from the start I can't live with. Does the update change the build.prop back to the default pixel density and make the icons bigger? Does is bring back the nag screen from Sprint?
[Galaxy Tab General] guillaumeux:
Me too with Sony MBW600, but when it was not connected you can use it hands free with the speaker... But everybody can appreciate your discussion...
[Galaxy Tab General] guillaumeux:
Just a question, what do you change in the build.prop to change the icon size ? Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
You root GB by flashing tge chainfire CF-Root v3.3 kernel. You also get a proper clockwork mod recovery tool.

T Mobile Galaxy Tab

I would like to know that once the voice feature is added, will I lose the 3G data speed and getting only edge?
[Galaxy Tab General] rangercaptain:
At&t tab with at&t sim card will get 3g and voice. T-mobile tab and t-mobile sim card gets voice and EDGE, which is 2g data. You can add an app that will let you switch to 3g data and no voice. I don't know about verizon or sprint tabs.

Upgrade your gsm tab (it has a sim card slot) to gingerbread, then flash a modem for your region/carrier.

Hi,

I'm new to this, and made some reading here in few threads.

I have a rogers Galaxy Tab, and I recently upgraded it

via Kies to Gingerbread (the original upgrade).

I flashed the modem successfully to JM2 (as one of the members

here with Rogers Tab with Gingerbread said this is the modem to use).

I don't see any voice call icon, and there's no data connection with Rogers,

only with wifi.

I know I'm missing something here, but I don't know what ... :-(

Any help will be appreciated.

Oh, just tried to call my number and I did see that there's an incoming call

(before the call didn't go through), and when I rejected it and wanted to go

to see the call details I got an error message: "Dialer is not supported on this device"

I tried to install the app, Dialer One, and it can show the call log, but can not make

a call.

Any ideas?

By the way, I have a Fido SIM, and text messages (and now income call) works fine

No need to go that extreme.

Usually PIT file goes to PIT (DUH!), and only needed if instruction calls for "re-partition".

ROM file (in TAR format) or Kernel file (in TAR format) goes to PDA.

That depends on what are you flashing. The rom or just the kernel.

Modem file (modem.bin) goes to the PHONE part.

[G Tablet General] kmclaren:
Hi Folks. It seems that it only took me 4 days to get a brand new G-Tablet bricked. I installed dxTop Pro and it crashed my unit. When it came back up I am in a Force Close loop for dxTop Pro since this is the shell I was using.

I can't seem to get the unit into safe mode. Is there a way to do this on a G-Tablet? I am running the stock TapnTap with just the Enhancements Pack.

Any Help would be appreciated.

Also, this unit seems to be a hackers dream and a users nightmare. I am a big techie and I don't mind hacking around with this thing to get it setup properly. However, I would like to get it to a point where it runs reliably. I am starting to think that this is not going to be possible. Has anyone had a G-Tablet running where it is not problematic? If this thing is just going to be a hackers testbed then I am going to return it before it's too late.
