[Q] Pushing 4.1.1 ROM on 4.1.1

Hi,
I have Samsung Tab 2 7" P3100
Originally had 4.0.4 which worked great.
But got OTA update n upgraded to 4.1.1
& Now it started giving me trouble, Wifi Connection is very unstable.
Connected to Wifi Network keeps popping up every 5 mins.
I cant even install things properly without worrying of it will fail or success.
so i rooted the device and reset the whole thing (Rooted to make a Titatnium Backup n all)
Problem still persists, Still the Wifi Trouble.
Without a Proper Wifi its not even worth having a Tablet.
So my Question is: Can i Push a 4.1.1 ROM from Sammobile on my current 4.1.1 ??
or should i just downgrade it to 4.0.4 & than do a upgrade via Kies rather than OTA update.
( I am thinking something in OTA messed up, so a proper ROM from sammobile might help)

Yes, you can trying to download them from sammobile.com and start to installing from odin. Make sure you have backup for your ICS 4.0.4 before replace with JB 4.1.1
Good luck..

I cant update or install apps keep saying insufficient storage and I cant find the problem so start over running android 4.1.1
weird...
What kind of stuff do you have on your device? Do you have a bunch of songs or movies on the tablets internal memory/hard drive? Go into settings and apps, what available space does it say?
Also are you sure you tried the rooting process correctly? Its done from your micro sdcard...
So not sure how you got that error...you may have to delete some stuff to free up space.
Also if you really want to root your tablet, upgrade to jelly bean first and then root your tablet using cf-root the auto root exploit.
Here is a good link to help you root your tablet after you update to jelly bean.

To download JB from Samsung official you will need at least 330mbs of free space.
If you root your tablet while its running ICS android 4.0.4 then you will not be able to update to jelly bean with the Samsung official update, you will get an error message and the process will abort. This why I really suggest you upgrade to JB first before rooting. If you ended up rooting your tablet while your tablet is running ICS 4.0.4 and you want to update to jelly bean then you will have to use CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly build. If that is your situation let me know and I can help you upgrade to JB.
I hope this has been helpful

Even after factory reset your root will not go away why u dont delete some useless stuff from your internal memory
Or you can use app like link2sd to link apps to ur external sd card but for this u should have proper partitions on ur external sd card

there's an option on cwm to release unused space. look for it that should give you about another 1gb of space.

[Q] Update stock rooted galaxy tab

Hey all, I have a bought a galaxy tab 2 on android version 4.1.1 a while ago.
Back then I rooted the tablet so I could run whatsapp etc. on it.
After some research last days I noticed there were a few updates for the tab, and I decided that i want 4.1.2, (but still with root)
now my question is(since I can't update over the air):
How can i update my tab to version 4.1.2 while keeping the root acces and without losing or need to reinstall my apps?
because if i download the stock 4.1.2 ROM and install it, I lose all my apps and I need to reinstall it (from my experience with the htc legend).
thanks in advance!
Make a backup in CWM and install the ota; it seems that usually with this device OTA's will install properly when rooted.
You know, it's a sad day when your cellular service is faster than your home broadband.

No, that is the problem. It is not possible because it will say taht my device is modified. But i decided to try cyanogenmod on it. And if it doesn't suit me then i will install stock 4.1.2.
but still thanks

[Q] Total newbie on Android, some simple quesitons.

Hi people of XDA-Developers, I have a few questions to ask about Android, I've been an iOS user for around 3-4 years and I was very familiar with jailbreaking, iOS softwares, and almost everything. I knew what to do on exactly every situation but then I got bored of iOS and then I thought of switching into a better OS and I thought Android was good. Now I'm in Android and I don't understand a single thing about it. Compared to Android, iOS is a lot simpler, easier but also boring. You can play around with the Android but I really don't understand much. By miracle I didn't brick my phone after attempting to Root it, I was so lucky that it worked because I didn't know what I was doing . So here are my info and some questions.
Phone:
-Samsung Galaxy S4 (T-Mobile)
-SGH-M919
-Android 4.2.2
Questions:
1- Ok, so I have Android 4.2.2 on SGH-M919 which is on T-Mobile, I bought the phone on the US but then I left to another country (Panama), I want to upgrade from 4.2.2 to 4.3 and I want to know if it is already available because some websites say that it's coming on the 18th of November. I want to know if it is available.
2- If so, why can't I download it? When I do software update it says that: "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available", I already used Triangle away to reset the times flashed and it's already on the "System: Official" (it was on "System: Modified") , I've already erased the cache and even factory reset.
3- I've seen somewhere on Google that you can manually update it (with Odin and/or with an external SD card)
4- Not that I really care THAT much about updating but what I want to do is to flash it to a ROM, in this case, the PACman ROM. But it says PACman 4.3 and I don't know if it is possible to use the 4.3 version on the 4.2.2 Android and I won't risk it so I want to know if there is a way around it. I really want to flash it before moving everything from my iPhone to my Galaxy.
I would really appreciate if you answered these questions, the simplest way possible, please and thank you in advance.

IIt is available from some carriers now via OTA upgrade and more carriers are releasing it currently.

You can run PACman 4.3 on the S4, but going from 4.2.2 to 4.3 you should do a full wipe first to prevent any install issues. 4.3 is just an upgraded version of 4.2.2 and is still in the JellyBean series.You can find the PACman Development thread here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295673

Ohh now I get it, now I updated from 4.2.2 to PAC 4.3.1. I think I understand how this works. The PAC 4.3.1 is just like an update, I thought you had to be on the same version to flash ROMs. Thank you for your response :good:
There's one more question, now that I have PACman, it comes with Trebuchet, I want to know if it's possible to organize the apps in my App Drawer in a custom way, not my name or by the date installed. If yes, how. If no, is there a way around it? If yes, which one. Thank you in advance.

[Q] Update strategy for rooted One Mini

hey there,
I have a rooted One Mini which runs on Android 4.3 at the moment. A few days ago, I have recieved the update info for Kitkat 4.4.2.
Now I know that I can not use the regular update on a rooted phone and for the time beeing, I don't even feel the need to upgrade. However, I was wondering about the general problem:
First, I thought about doing a full backup (Nandroid), then flashing back to stock, getting the official update and then flashing the nandroid backup back. However, I realized that makes no sense, since a nandroid backup contains all partitions and therefore would simply overwrite the updated system...right?
Now the question is: what is the most convenient way to stay updated on a rooted phone? Do I really need to flash back to stock, do the update and then go through the root process again each time?
thanks for any info and clarifying!
brokaaa
normally the devs here are much faster in providing an updated ROM then many carriers are with giving you an OTA
I'd go back to stock and take the update. 4.3 was a mistake in my opinion. Att skipped it completely and went from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 all in one update. Lol or just flash cm11 which is a better choice yet seeing as its already pretty stable and very fast.
