[Q] Will it be possible to revert to ICS from JB? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
Being a newbie, I would like to get some feedback from the more experienced users in this great forum. As JB seems to be just around the corner for the N8010 series I'm interested in learning whether it will be possible to revert to ICS from JB if that's wanted/needed for any reason. I personally find Samsung devices to be 'flexible' when it comes to flashing ROM/firmware via Odin, which is great compared to other brand tablets I've had my hands on. The reason for my title question is that my local Samsung support centre (Sweden) tells me there is no going back once JB is installed. Do you think this is a fact or merely something they have to say to all customers according to some policy? From what I understand there is no bootlocker or signature match (correct me if I'm wrong here) on our devices under ICS, and I don't see any reason why Samsung should introduce something like that under JB which should stop the possibility if reverting. Anybody who knows or have any thoughts?
Rgds,

Its easy. Just flash an oficial ics fw with odin, I already did this and I had no problem. Just get the fw for your region from sammobile.

You will run into problems with things like Titanium backup getting confused and not restoring properly.
Honestly the rumor is that the JellyBean OTA may be coming shortly. You should just wait for that. The cm10 rom is the best developed now but you lose s notes with that.
I recommend just rooting with the 8013 Odin in Development and leaving it at that for a while. Other than cm10 the other roms have proven to be a bit unstable. Always be careful. With ICS flash the wrong combination of recoveries and roms and you could have a paperweight on your hands.

Thnx for ur feedback.... But Im only planning on using stock roms.... So can i flash stock n8010 roms from sammobile on the n8013?

I would not if i were you. Honestly until JB gets released you arent going to see much of a performance pop flashing any stock roms.
Better just to chill and enjoy your tablet. Run it on Apex Launcher. Makes it faster.

Thnx again.... The weird thing is that no where could i find a post of how these 2 versions differ except that one is the US version nd the other international..... If they have the same exact hardware, nd they only differ in the region released nd model no. then supposedly flashing one model's rom on the other should not cause any problem.... Am looking 4 strictly technical input on this.

The exact differences between the two models are still unknown. Apparently on the Tab2, the difference was IR ports, but 8010 has them.
I'm not sure why you're so concerned, considering that more developers have 8013 and 8000 units, very few people have 8010s.

They never seem to do so for USA devices.
There is a Kies dump (effectively a full return to stock package) for UEALH2 available in the Development forum.
I know people have flashed the leaked 4.1.1 on their 8013 and in settings it even showed up as a 8010 but yeah I wanna know if the ROMs work
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
For a custom stock based rom for the 8013, i recommend checking out the rom in my signature. Extremely stable, and has jelly bean animations
I bought a N8013 @ best buy in the USA two weeks ago. I am now back in germany and flashed a german DBT N8010 ROM (LH2). Everything went fine. WLAN, BT, ... everything is fine. I would say that I have now a "real" N8010 machine Even Kies accepts my tab and does not say that it is not qualified for updates...
So, to answer the question: Yes, you can flash a N8010 ROM on a N8013 machine.
But what about N8000 and N8013? Are those interchangeable?

I bought my N8010 (sales in China) and there's no 5GHZ WLAN support in OFFICAL firmware (both CHN and TW ROM , it can't recognise the 5Ghz access point of Cisco E3000)
But it DOES SUPPORT 5Ghz WLAN after flashing N8013 ROM JellyICS (This rom isn't stable enough for daily using for my N8010, all google apps go crash.)
So I guess (just guess) N8013 Rom supports 5GHZ WLAN natively but N8010 doesn't (at least in CHN Version Rom)
I have the 8010 uk version and it works perfect with 5Ghz radio on my asus rt n66u

My N8013 have just flashed with N8010 UK firmware. It stops recognizing 5ghz airport and OTA updating feature. However, using new 4.1.1 is great. it's compromise.
N8013 JB update?
Is their any word on when Samsung will release the JB update for the N8013???

[Q] GT-N8010 Latest Update

Does anyone know where I can get the latest GT-N8010 update for the UK or similar?
I'm rooted with CWM6. I assume I'll have to un-root my device and then inject the ROM with Odin, too?
Try sammobile. They have the latest official firmwares which you can flash with odin.

Yeah, I actually noticed that! I injected the ROM last night. Turns out that the S-Note is gubbed for PDF's. I had such good luck with it before, as well.

I've got the n8010 in the uk. I've never flashed another rom or rooted yet and there is not update available for my device via ota or kies, so im guessing there is no update officially yet.

The updates official. It was downloaded from sammobile. It's just that Samsung always tend to take a lot of time before actually releasing updates. They're special like that.

[Q] US AT&T A2 soft bricked while OTA and another question

hello
well to make it short i bought the atrix 2 from the US early when it came out and then i came to Dubai and all the annoying bloatware for AT&T have became more annoying by (NOT WORKING) when i was leaving i called them and they gave me the unlock code so im using the phone in Dubai, UAE and its working great, im on Victory Rom (Best rom ever) clean and elegant.
---------
now i found there is official ICS firmware for UAE Retails and it has the same number as my phone MB865 so my question is: can i flash that firmware to my AT&T phone ? and incase that is not possible, if i want a clean ICS ROM (made from the official OTA update not the leak) where i can find it ? and lastly if all is not possible what is the cleanest quickest and best ROM and will it work if i update to OTA ICS ?
sorry for taking too long and Thanks in advance
----------
that was what i wrote earlier but now i tried to do OTA and the phone stuck on the dual core technology screen so im thinking to Fxz but i dont know if i should do it for GB 2.3.6 or ICS ?
thanks a lot

To be very honest with you and AFAIK no one had tried to fxz to ICS from GB.but in theory it should work.
But this is what I'll suggest fxz to 2.3.6 and try OTAing.it should take you to ICS directly.

Ok so get this very clear if you phone it's AT&T one(it has AT&T written on the bottom) then you can't flash any other firmware.your only option is the AT&T firmware( from here).
And there are lots of ROMs that you can try.
StockyEd is pure OTA version of ICS.
Others are Numa, swifty trix ,scv7.Also we have CM10.

n8010

Hi,
okay why is it that their are ...pretty much NO roms for my tablet n8010? All the roms I see posted for the note 10.1 are not for my model, I have seen one which is stable for the jelly bean update but It wasn't running that well on my tablet, why is their such little choice for my model and also when will jelly bean be out for my version?

1. The devs are likely waiting for JB to compile ROMs for your device
2. Only Samsung and Jesus know when JB will be out for the N8010 (and N8013)

But its risky to try out roms which arent specifically designed for your device, right? I used a rom from this site and it changed the model nunmber to n8000, even though the rom was supposed to be for my device...lol...I guess Im just going to wait for the official jelly bean rom out here..

The reason you do not have roms for 8010 is because none are available the jB for 8010 is out for Germany but an OTA and hence the complete firmware is not available but there are some post where you download the OTA and follow some steps and install it.
Would I recomend you to do that no, if it was the complete firmware i would say go ahead.
Wait for sometime it should be out soon ( I have been waiting for couple of months form the Indian firmware of Note 800 to be out still no signs)

[Q] Samsung Galaxy 7.0 Jelly BeanUpdate

Hey,
I have recently purchased A samsung galaxy 7.0 tab 2 since my other tab has crashed due to A recent issue.
Anyway,
I am wondering when samsung will launch the jelly bean update for the P73110?
I just bought the device yesterday it is smaller then my other device(8.9) but so far A great experience..
Thanks,
Spudster
Jelly Bean 4.1.1/4.1.2 already has rolled out to a lot countries...

Look cm10.1 on my T2
Update
Alright
Are these official updates? and is it safe to flash it though odin?
I don't want to brick my 7.0 after I did it with my 8.9 A few months ago.
I had clock mod and installed the wrong mod by mistake on the 8.9 obviously I don't know how to use it right lol
And as long as it also dosent void the warranty and brick it I will do the update.

Huh, the threadstarter owns a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0-inch?
You might have misread his original comments, he actually meant his Galaxy Tab 2 was a replacement for his earlier 8.9 inch tablet.
Anyway, back to the point, Jelly Bean has been out for Galaxy Tab 2 for a rather long time already, mostly version 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 depending on the region. Samsung has commented that version 4.2 will be the last update for the Glaaxy Tab 2 range.
Sorry the Modell number P73110?
It confused me sorry guys, @op please remove the 7 from 73110.
Ok.
Is it safe to flash firmware from other regions? (im from australia)
Should I root again or not?
I Had A Temptation to Install a Custom ROMs On My last Device Voided Warranty And Bricked The emmc Chip.
Might Be Best Not To Be Safe.
Bump
So Is It Safe Go Flash A ovefseas Copy?
Ya go.
I might just wait for the update in australia, I'm not taking another chance And I birck again lol.
And they have no info in there database.

Apparently it voids your warrantly, Flashing the stock OS. Its not worth it.
