Update using official patch file
You must be runnning the stock FRF85B release with stock recovery. Copy that file to the root of your sdcard, rename to update.zip, launch recovery (power on with volume down held), press power and volume up when the warning triangle icon appears then select 'apply update.zip'.
Download: Google
Update.zip to flash with custom recovery
This is the totally stock FRF91 repacked as update.zip. The radio hasn't changed since FRF50, so if you are using it, you can keep it and install the noradio version.
Download:
- without radio image: multiupload (md5sum: 041b1e21433e636340ca6b56f141a315)
Root
To root FRF91, just flash this update.zip (contains busybox, superuser.apk, su, unsecured boot.img) (md5sum: c6c27598c210576792d6d56738a2edde)
Addons pack
Just flash this update.zip (md5sum: 7cf8074d3685681728043f367e6b35fd) contains :
- cyanogenmod 6.0 kernel (2.6.34 overclockable to 1113mhz using setcpu)
- dev tools in xbin
- hudge apn list
The three updates can be flashed at the same time (I mean without rebooting between the flashes), just flash it in this order: base system, root then addons and reboot

Q. Why there is a need to repack the firmware?
A. As you may know, the stock kernel in the stock firmware has the emmc hard brick feature enabled which is believed to be the reason of 2 hard brick incident reported in the forum. And even worse, the emmc hard brick bug (mmc_erase) can be called @ anytime after the system is booted with a buggy kernel, which means that your device can immediately get bricked after the first reboot.
Q. So is it okay to flash the ROM via odin with a different bootloader (i.e. boot.img)?
A. Theoretically, yes. But the problem is that when we repack the odin package with a modified boot.img. The download counter will rise and a yellow triangle will appear on every boot.
Q. So is there any way to flash the stock bootloader but without letting it get booted?
A. Yes. There is a way to do so. After you have successfully flashed a package via odin, the odin bootloader (based on BCT partition) will invoke the recovery bootloader to finish the install process. And if you are not using the stock recovery, the process will get halted and then leave you at the recovery (CWM) screen. And then you can flash a kernel via CWM at this point.
Q. Is there anything that I should aware of?
A. Yes. Just like flashing any firmware, After flashing the ICS package, it is important for you to backup all the important files before flashing.
Guideline 1 [For people who is willing to use CWM6 (provided by Adam77Root)] (prefered way) :
1. Turn on your device and connect it to a computer
2. Place the kernel file, superuser file (which can be flashed via CWM) and new_sec_csc.zip into your internal SD card first and make sure all your important data on /sdcard are backed up (You are free to select any kernel but make sure the mmc erase part get disabled from the kernel completely)
3. Turn it off and remove the external sdcard from the device
4. Download the ICS firmware files which contains GB kernel and CWM6
5. Put the device into download mode and flash the above package via odin 3.07. Place the package file (*.tar.md5) into PDA part (You can now flash with pit file as well, however the internal sdcard data will get wiped so it is important for you to make a backup for important files before flashing) (DO NOT attemp to flash any ICS package via odin 1.85 as there is a high risk that the download process get stuck in odin v1.x series, and you have to unbrick your device with nvflash tool if error occurs)
6. After the device is restarted, it will get into recovery (CWM) mode. And the script provided by Samsung will be failed to execute due to a assert call. (Don't worry, you can execute the script again by using the patched new_sec_csc.zip)
7. Backup any important data in /sdcard (external sdcard) now if you didn't do so. You can do this @ 'Mount and storage' -> 'Mount USB devices'.
8. 'Wipe cache' and 'Wipe data / factory reset' (make sure you have all your important data on /sdcard backed up and your have removed your external sdcard device)
9. If the above stage has wiped your CWM flashable zip file as well, you can mount the device to a computer via mount menu and you can place the zip file to the phone as mass storage again.
10. Install the CWM flashable zip file (superuser, new_sec_csc.zip and your kernel file) from sdcard (For an unknown odd reason, all the packages you gonna install in this step will have signature verification error, but it is safe to proceed. Just switch off the signature verification from the menu or choose to 'Install untrusted package'.)
11. After you flashed kernel, you are free to flash anything and free to reboot now.
12. If you have used a pit file for flashing the package in odin, a message will be appeared in notification center telling you the filesystem on /sdcard cannot be recognized. Just click on it to format the sdcard and then you are free to use anything now.
13. If you are still afraid of breaking system integrity as you were not using the samsung recovery script to finish the update process, navigate to 'Options -> Back up and reset -> Factory data reset' and totally reset the device there.
P.S. If you accidentally pressed reboot the system now in CWM 6, don't worry, the system will not be able to boot into normal mode. And you can redo all the things since the beginning.
Update #1 : During testing the flash process, I have found that the repacked firmware cannot be flashed with odin 1.83. It is important to get all the ICS firmware being flashed with odin 3.07 (or 3.x sereis) instead v1.x series. Otherwise you have made a risk that your partition (PIT) table is messed up so srsly that you have to use nvflash tool to restore everything. I will tell this to cooleagle to get everyone knows of it.
XXLQ9 :
Stock package with GB kernel and CWM6 which is based on safe stock GB ZSLE6 kernel (just extract the file in the splited zip files) : http://www.mediafire.com/?uq5tg9o7nli04b2 and http://www.mediafire.com/?b5i571br0x07c38
CWM flashable package :
- Superuser CWM flashable package : http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip or Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip in attachments (But you will be unable to update with the 3.2 RC3 build, use 3.1.3 one if you want)
- My own kernel (flashable via CWM) : UnknownzD_Kernel_with_superuser.zip (with superuser, good for first time install) and UnknownzD_Kernel.zip in the attachments
- Patched Samsung install script (the one which failed to run) : new_sec_csc.zip in the attachments
Odin v3.07 : Odin307.zip in the attachments
Credits go to Adam77Root for his CWM image and someone(!?) who has uploaded odin 3.07 to xda forum. Will try to check his name later.
Short change log about my kernel (The longer one will get posted when I start another thread for it) :
4 IO scheduler added
Voodoo sound patch added
Full fp calculation based on hardware fp opcode only (which should makes the device consumes less energy while providing the same performance level)
MMC erase function tootally disabled
Default.prop get modified to increase the performance
Based on ICS 3.x kernel src code released by Samsung
If you gonna use my kernel, please make sure that you have efs_backup.img backed up safely after flashing my kernel package, as it contains your device's IEMI info, which can save you from future disaster as you can use the unbrick tool with it. You can backup the efs_backup.img by :
1. Flash my kernel in CWM
2. Mount and storage -> Mount USB devices
3. Copy the efs_backup.img from the sdcard to your own computer (it is vital for you as you can use the unbrick tool later)
Now I am stuck @ finding a proper file host to upload the files.
waiting for this!

BusyBox?

You can root it on your own with superuser zip file. And busybox binary is not yet dropped into /sbin/ as I believe it comprise the system integrity back in GB kernel. Init.d will be supported in near feature. All the things that I changed is just inside the kernel and recovery and provide a safe envrionment for user to continue to flash their own desired kernel. Nothing more.
For kernel development, I will make a separate thread in dev section later.
Sorry I have to postpone the release as I have to repack everything with the nordic release (XXLQ9) now.
Ok, I'm sure you know I asked just for general information. I supposed your answer yet
Anyway, I'm sure its a good job. With the new version (nordic) I suggest you to upload releases to dropbox our something easier. Anybody could make a mirror in other servers later :thumbup:

Yea I just saw the PM, it is really useful for me tbh. Thanks for your help.
Okay after many hours of testing, I am happy to release the ICS XXLQ9 package with GB kernel and CWM 6 (based on the one posted by Adam77Root) that should be able to let you flash your own kernel after flashing it. Download links will be up shortly.
So after 5~6 times of srs bricking, I finally get it working correctly after working overnight.
Ok I have released the ROM already, please try to use it if you know how to use the unbrick tool. This is because I want to ensure that the package can be flashed safely in Odin v3.x instead of v1.x series.

Rooting Nordic ROM is quite easy, that is if you are on GB (if you are on ICS you will have zero free space in system space), so when you are on GB you need CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839900 use CWM to wipe data and format system.
Flash Nordic ROM (Odin), than CWM, go to http://androidsu.com/superuser/ and download binary only (ARM), now use CWM to install SU binary.
You need SU app from Play Store and you are rooted.
Nice work! Thanks!

Basically the things you mentioned above are included in the package / guide already. Tbh this should not be dangerous. But I want more people to test it first because last time when I released the GB kernel, a lot of people complained about the things that do not occur on my phone.
oh btw about the zero free space in system space, I believe it is just a bug in the filesystem. You can fix it easily by using e2fsck, which is actually included in my kernel script.
This is just explanation about staying stock. Your work and effort is well above this. Thanks in name of all flash addicts
So after many times of tests, I guess it is safe to use the build already, just make sure you have everything backed up before updating (actually you should do this for any fimrnware update). If you have found any problem, just report the problem here. I will repack every stock firmware following the same method until Samsung acknowledge that the MMC_CAP_ERASE is removed from stock kernel.
If you have found your device bricked after using any ICS update (for example, unable to flash the device any more via odin protocol), please let me know via pm please so that I can guide you to fix your phone in IRC.

When you are updating the ROM from GB to ICS better to wipe data or else you face some Force Closes and other issues....

The wiping cache part is actually a part of odin download process. Everytime when you flash a new firmware in odin, the odin bootloader will invoke some scripts stored in /cache within recovery mode, and then wipe out these scripts / the whole partition as they are no longer needed.
However the wiping /data part is actually an essential part of firmware update and you should do it on your own if you are using CWM based firmware. This is because if you flash a firmware via odin, the data partition gets wiped after the device rebooted.
tbh it should be safe if you didn't wipe the /cache partition but not for the /data partition. Just some usls scripts and T9DB left behind in /cache. But incompatible binaries may still stays in /data if you didn't wipe it.

Yes...when I have installed the rom I read the message status 7 installation aborted set_perm ....I checked file updater script in meta inf...I formatted system data cache then mounted all and flashed the ROM bit nothing...
resolved changing philz touch recovery to cwm 6.0.4.4 with flashify...bit the signal line is off.Already patched to enable full GSM functions....any idea?
This is a modified version of @jrkruse stock BPB1 deodexed ROM with all(or most) of the stock BS removed.
INSTRUCTIONS:
I've included the links needed if you want to use xposed. If you chose not to use Xposed, then skip that step in the flashing process.
I have only used Safestrap to install this ROM, but FlashFire should work as well.
1) Flash https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911973868
2) Flash https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24349802275799067
3) Flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3510618&d=1445173511
4) Flash https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911971238
5) Flash https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911970805
6) After first boot, open Lollipop Recovery Control and install the latest Safestrap.
7) Open up Viper4Android and install the driver. Then install http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3405269&d=1436940172 and run the Viper fix in the app.
There is no need to flash any Viper zips with this ROM. This ROM has all the same apps as BOK3 V5, but obviously updated to the BPB1 apps. The only app added is multiwindow. I don't use multiwindow, so I can be certain that all aspects of it work, but everything seemed to work normally when I played with it.
Note: Don't pay attention to the 1- prefix in front of some of the ROM versions. I prefix all my flashables in my ROM folder with a 1-, 2-, 3-, ect, so that I have them all in order when I flash them instead of having to remember the order every time lol. I forgot to remove those prefixes when I uploaded the ROMs.
THIS PROJECT IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED.

Sorry for the late reply. My wife just had a baby. You need to remove super user before you apply the update. The update wont work with SU. Its batter to do it with stock 100%
Brilliant. Took a bit of trial and error since I've not worked with this tool before but got my tablet updated to 4.4.2 at last. Thanks so much for putting this together, I really thought I'd be stuck on 4.2. Just gotta figure out how to root now, that doesn't seem to be working.

Does this allow the Tab to make and receive calls over GSM? Is this unbranded firmware not Vodafone firmware?
You need root access to install custom recovery via adb in fastboot, so you mean get root, install recovery then remove SU before flashing?
Okay so the first dump (4.2.2) is stock firmware from Hungary Vodafone used by mtktools to flash, please not this does not have super user so your device is allowed to update to the 4.4.2 file.
Second file is an update to 4.4.2 for those that missed out on the OTA release because they had root.
Third file is a custom debloated 4.4.2 flashable through CWM.
Never install SU on hungary 4.2.2 firmware as you will never get to upgrade to 4.4.2 firmware.
Updated with new files please check post #1

There is no scatter file for MT8382. Vodafone changed it to lock people out of backing up. The original scatter file provided is the real device code. Why are you asking for MT8382?

Extract the files and re-ZIP it as a zip file. I made a mistake. It won't affect install

27/4/2017: New RR5.7.4 With Updated SU, BusyBox, Gapps and DivineBeats9.0. Please note this is a TWRP recovery so replace DATA and SYSTEM into one of your own backup's of RR5.7.4! Let me know if this works for you please and be careful! Make sure you know what you are doing!
Install Stock Firmware 4.2.2 using SPFlashTools:
-Make sure you boot into recovery and factory reset before first use!
Install Update from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2:
-Make sure the device is stock! No root or you will encounter errors. Custom recovery works fine, no issues.
-Place Update.zip on root of SD-card or internal if you dont have an SD-card
-Apply Update
-Reboot
Installing Custom Recoveries Using SPFlashTools(Doesnt matter which android you are running 4.2.2 or 4.4.2 they both work for each firmware):
-Install either 4.2.2 or 4.4.2 OR TWRP3.0.0.0
*You might find that if you install 4.4.2 CWM on 4.4.2 firmware the next reboot will cause recovery to revert to stock. To stop this install CWM 4.2.2 (Yes it works), then try to reboot and it will ask you to "stop stock recovery from installing after reboot?" Select yes and dismiss Super user question as you'll get stuck in bootloop.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU FACTORY RESET AFTER INSTALLING ANY FIRMWARE! INCLUDING STOCK RELEASE!
