Brand New P3100 Need help updating to JB - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Everyone
I have just purchased a brand new unopened P3100 Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 3G and wifi.
if I press *#1234# Based on SamMobile I have the POLAND XEO Region model.
I want to update my baseband to 4.1 but im afraid to brick my device.
I rooted 4.0.3, installed Sungsonic HD, and everything works great except I cant hear anything when I make phone calls and they cant hear me either. But my voice recording app works just fine and so does Google Now.
I live in the US of course and just want to take advantage of SungSonic HD.
Any advice on how to upgrade my baseband?
Can I just download the Hong Kong 4.1.2 and flash it in Odin?
Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Yes you can flash.
Just put firmware file in pda in odin.(if a single file is there in package and if it have three files modem,pda,csc then put them in respective columns in odin)
If pit file its in firmware zip put in pit in odin
(if there is no pit file do not check re partition)
Check auto reboot,f .reset
Hit start sit and finger crossed.
Try at your own risk

So what your saying is I can flash the:
"TGY" Hong Kong 4.1.2 OTA through Odin
onto my
"XEO" Poland Unlocked 4.0.3 Stock GT-P3100?
I mean yes I know there is always risk in flashing. But I can always odin back to the poland 4.0.3 XEO if I flash the hong kong 4.1 build?

[Proved] Unbrick the N9005 from 4.4.2 upgrading

Hi all,
I am generally not a XDA active reply user. I worked on a lot of Android fixing project. And here is one of mine result.
Please read the whole thread before working on it.
I know everyone is frustrating in upgrading to 4.4.2 but brick during odin process (ext4 fail) and stuck in 4.4.2 bootloader.
PS: This method is currently work on HK note3, but i think this method would work on all note3, Please try this will your own risk, I would not be responsible to all trouble according to this method. Varied N9005 would require different N9005 4.3 Firmware, I personally use HK Firmware because Mine is 16gb Note 3.
Here is the method to solve this problem:
Before working on it, we have to prepare the following things:
1. Odin 3.07 (Yes, 3.09 does not work)
2. HK firmware odin pack (Pit, BL (DO NOT WORK WITH IT, AP, CP, CSC) (Sorry for it is a Chinese link)
OR Workable N9005 4.3 firmware
3. 4.4.2 leaked firmware
4. 4.4.2 rom (I used sweet rom v.7 to fix it)
5. 4.4.2 recovery cwm @Chenglu
5. Samsung driver (bullshxt)
Now lets get started:
1. Flash the 4.4.2 firmware BL by odin.
2. Flash the HK Firmware AP, CP &CSC (Do not use the HK firmware BL)
3. once it done, turn to Download mode again and flash 4.4.2 recovery cwm by odin
4. Run Recovery
5. Wipe everything
6. Flash 4.4.2 rom ( I flashed sweet rom v7 currently)
7. Boot to system and do all the setting ( The sound and the signal are not working)
8. Boot back to download mode
9. Boot the 4.4.2 leaked firmware's CP ( DO NOT WIPE AFTERWARD)
10. Prepare coffee and cookies
11. Enjoy your device!

Please edit your title to reflect that (at least at this point) your fix should be considered primarily for the Hong Kong Note 3 bricked by writing XEO 4.4.2.

Actually not, its to all varied Note3 but I do not have all sources given to it, it is generally working on all Note3 who fail in flashing to 4.4.2(to any error in progress during Odin upgrading)
And I did a lot of researches, This problem is not only reflect to HK Note 3 only, there are a lot of people would upgrading to 4.4.2 and stuck in Download mode with UDC start (Not able to downgrade).

Well, if/when people will post in this thread reporting that the method (which is highly similar to methods that were already posted by other users, most notably Volrath and rinuvimal - which you have not credited anywhere) - then we will know that the method is applicable, and to which specific models!
In other words people using the method on untested models should be warned that they are just doing something that might have never been tested on their model.

Okay, i changed it, in term of a reference instead
Hi guys, I had the same issue with the 16GB Honk Kong version, and this is how I have finally resolved, trying the methods you suggested and others, and finally got it back to life this way (I'm posting in case this might be useful for any of you as well)
1.- Flash bootloader from N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_N9005XXUENA2_OXX (Leaked Kit Kat version)
2.- After reboot, flash bootloader, CP and CSC from the same version (N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_N9005XXUENA2_OXX). Flashing bootloader again might not be necessary, but this is how I did it, and how it worked, so I cannot confirm otherwise
3.- Flash AP from N9005ZHUBMI7 (Honk Kong version)
4.- Enter recovery mode and wiped system, cache and dalvik (just in case)
4.- Flash autoroot (n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.6-kitkat(0113).tar)
5.- Flash CWM recovery for KitKat (n9005-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.6-kitkat(0113).tar)
6.- Installed the latest version of SweetRom (SweetROM_V7.00_NA6_4.4.2_N9005.zip) from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2487425
So long it seems to be working correctly, battery consumption has increased, but this seems normal every time I change my ROM. Thanks again for all your help, and hopefully this will help someone else resolve the issue until the official version for the HK 16GB version is available.
My friend wants to ask this question because he is unable to post a reply with a photos attached.
Is my N9005 32gb Baseband/Bootloader from Hong Kong also?
Kindly see my ScreenShots beloe please. I just don't know where my Note 3 came from.
Thanks in Advance & God Bless

I think you are using a Custom Rom so there is a posibility it won't be accurate kabayan. But according to your bootloader and baseband its the same as my Hongkong version. And my advice hide your IMEI nexttime.

Seems I have had some success. Although, I found a couple of the instructions difficult to understand. Thanks for posting this, as I no longer have a brick.

Baltic 4.4.2 kit kat OTA update

Hi all, got an update this morning for the baltic variant of kit kat.
27mb
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Details from my Note 3
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Downloading...
Off the 3 official kitkat 4.4.2 roms I have tested, Switzerland & Poland & Baltic, I find the Baltic one the best.
At least I get to use kitkat before the BTU variant is released,as long as I use the official sam-mobile firmware, basically I can test the different country variants of the new kitkat 4.4.2 without fear of tripping knox, and I still get the OTA updates.
Did you check your CSC?I had Netherland 4.4.2 PHN-N9005XXUENA6 and after i see what you write here i flash Baltic SEB-N9005XXUENA6 for the OTA update.Everything went ok but after i get the update now it's Poland new version CSC:NB1 (XEO).
Before update...
After update...
But here you don't see the CSC.You must install phone info and there you can see what country you have.

Hi orly.
Didn't see that, weird? why would an update change the CSC back to Poland, my CSC also shows N9005OXXENB1 and kies still says its an official version?
So to try to understand process I did a wipe cache and wipe data in recovery and it still shows N9005OXXENB1, so I re flashed Baltic ROM again and it now shows CSC N9005OXXENA5, now when I plug my note 3 into kies it says it wants to change it back
Just realised that the CSC has changed but both were the same XEO!
See screen dump.
Yes it's like mine.But the problem is that i have the Baltic CSC and now i have the Polonian CSC. Only with OTA update.

To see CSC put in *#1234# in phone dialer
I will flash the Switzerland ROM again after tea and report back, I am guessing that the first kitkat ROM you flash is the CSC you get stuck with unless you root, and the CSC variations are only small software programs that are country specific like the Switzerland ROM. As I flashed the first official Poland ROM I am stuck with XEO.
The core features like like say having 4G in settings are ROM specific not the CSC files, which is why I swapped between all the 3 kitkat versions I have tested..
My first rom was a baltic 4.3 with that one i bought the Phone.First time i have Baltic CSC then uk CSC after flash i made a full wipe and then Netherland CSC. I verify in kies3.
Phew..
So I flashed the Switzerland ROM again and my CSC is now N9005PHNENA2, I tried hard reset from menu and hasen't changed, plugged into pc for kies and says its latest? So I was wrong you can change the CSC it appears?
Which is great as I am waiting for the BTU variant this month hopefully.
I told you. Only on my s3 i need a software for change csc. It mean That you flash a old firmware. You didnt trip Knox?

Hi orly.
No my Knox fine, as long as I use official 4.4.2 ROM's. Now on latest Poland ROM.
@gadjet Just to clarify, you flashed the official polish rom with odin and knoxx wasnt tripped? If so what odin version did you use?

I have never been rooted on my Note 3, and I only flashed official firmware from samfirmare.com, not posted ones on XDA just in case, I use odin 3.09
You can see from my previous screen dumps while I flashed different variants this week, and I include a screen shot from my note 3 as of today with the latest Poland ROM.
I've flashed Official Poland 4.4.2 Feb 2014 too... just curious can you install an application from APK files ? I seems having problems not able to do it short while after Factory Reset... already enable in setting thou but still the Install bar can't be click...
? SM-N9005 @ Tapatalk ?
Yes you can.But first you must enable from settings unknown sources.Everything it's ok no wifi drop or something else sayed somebody.
New Poland ROM has same problems for me as first Poland release, i.e.. screen off f-ups and wake lock problems, phone does random lock ups when switching screen back on, and no buttons seem work for a few seconds and screen blank, capacitive buttons sometimes light up? I had to hold power button down for 10 seconds once to get a re boot!
So I am flashing back to the Baltic ROM again.

Want to un-root (to enable OTA) for my Gear 2

The problem I'm running into is that there is no stock firmware for the United States that I can find anywhere for me to unroot my Gear 2 ending in "NE5". Samsung-updates is the same way. No USA firmware. There has to be something I can do.

the thing with firmware for these devices, they dont carry a gsm/cdma chip, so it doesnt matter what firmware you use, juas as long its in the desired language you use nativly, any english speaking country will work , uk, australia, new zealand, canada, take your pic, but saying that any ota updates would be placed in sammobile anyway after a day or two, so its pretty pointless really to sacrifice root for ota when u can flash it manually via odin

Successful flash of SM-G920F - Anyone

OK, no matter what method I try I am unable to achieve a successful flash of my phone. I have tried it via odin with many different firmware versions but all seem to fail almost immediately. The only way to resolve this is to use samsung switch and reset phone to stock. The problem is stock firmware is german vodafone full of vodafone bloatware, I want to get rid of it and flash a UK unbranded firmware but no matter what I do I am unable to achieve this. I can see from the forum that there are many people out there with the same flashing problem but with no real responses on how to achieve the goal. There must be people out there that have achieved this task but don't seem to be offering up much help?
ok

Is your phone international unlocked out of the box? I dont believe it was, because as far as I've read international unlocked phones come with "unbranded" firmware. The unlocked ones I know can be pretty much flashed with "any" international firmware, which is what you are trying to do.
If you dont know for sure. Odin the stock German Vodaphone. Let the phone boot. Boot back to stock recovery, then factory reset and clear cache.
Then let the phone boot...Download phone info app by vndnguyen (free version is fine)...Open the app, go to CSC Code tab. Then that will tell you the active CSC code and your firmware CSC code...you are looking for the line that says Available CSC Codes. If it only lists German Vodaphone (VD2), then I believe you are stuck til the phone is unlocked.
Anyone, jump in here if I'm mistaken. I am using this as reference as, I've checked my G920F. Mine is unlocked tho and I can flash any firmware from any region with no problem. Hopefully I've answered your question.
I had no luck with the firmwares on the firmware page either.
If you are on OI9 check http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/guide-android-6-0-marshmallow-beta-how-t3277533
And try flashing the first stock firmware https://drive.google.com/folderview...sharing&tid=0B40ItdHKfkyQd1hJQXVDU3dDU2c#list (not the android M one!) via ODIN.
Basic process is:
Download the above file, extract, there should be 4 files inside (AP,BL,CP,CSC), simply select each one to go in the relevant box on ODIN, then go into download mode on your phone and click start...
N.B. Be aware that the above firmware contains a PIT file which will reformat and resize the partitions on your phone, so make sure you have a copy of the stock firmware that works before trying the flash (i.e. the one which Smart Switch downloads). You can grab it from your windows %TEMP% directory during the smart switch download (it first downloads a file to TMPxxx, then extracts it into a directory of the same name, its these files you want. They should be the four files beginning with the type of ODIN file you are flashing (AP,BL,CP,CSC). The files get deleted after the firmware has flashed so make sure you watch the process. If things go wrong you can re-flash these files via ODIN
As far as I was led to believe and when I purchased the phone it did state factory unlocked. I was able to put in any sim when I received it and didn't have to go through any aftermarket unlock process?
I have the same problem i have a unlocked G-920F with egyptian CSC and firmware 5.1.1 .when i try to flash BTU 5.1.1 via odin, i have the same problem and only way to recover is via smart switch.BTU firmware is from sammobile

its BTU firmware of 5.1.1
and flash this firmware you'll have 4 files AP,BL,CP,CSC,put it in the respective boxes in odin.I have tested this right now and it works
Press "thanks" if i have helped
Well downloaded the app for CSC info and it states available CSC codes are...
ATL, AVF, CNX, CYV, MOB, MTL, OMN, SIM, SWC, TCL, VD2, VDC, VDF, VDH, VDI, VGR, VIP & VOD
Any ideas?
Ok, tried to get stock firmware when samsung smart switch was downloading and installing but couldn't see where the firmware was being downloaded to? Tried windows temp etc but nothing appeared during download and install?

Just type in %TEMP% into you windows explorer address bar and it will take you there. arrange by date modified and you will see the size ticking up during the download, before the flash starts it will extract into a folder with the same name, the md5 files can be grabbed from there
No probs here

Magic, have had great success. Now on the BTU firmware and everything is up and running. Got the stock as well just in case but if this continues to work won't be reinstalling stock. So a big thanks to those who helped

Glad you are sorted

Serious connection problems with SM-G920f

Hi everybody, I do not know if there is some discussion open yet but I can not speak and write so much in English.
I come to the problem already written on the SAMSUNG ASSISTENZA forums without solving anything, the only solution to bring it into service.
Ok I have a Samsung S6 SM-G920F which now works only with 2g network, with 3g and 4g network does not work, has field but does not surf.
These tests have been carried out:
Tested SIM sim card on another phone works.
Try other cards on my phone do not work.
Done Update ITV has solved nothing.
Tried other roms I now have French Android firmware 7.0 (I've read that many have solved) flashing and hard reset all the same problem.
I have no root.
Other evidence, removed the board inserted another card nothing.
Changed APN manually.
Restore Factory Settings.
Restore network settings.
The problem has never been resolved.
Here you are a lot better in the world, maybe you know how to do it and thank you.
Sorry for my English but I used Google Translate
Did you tried to flash only modem...?
Maybe that can solve the problem, not shure....!
And better to flash the stock rom that device had when you bought it

Ok ok, understand, perfect.
I noticed unpacking the firmware ITV Italia no brands that until December had a modem, modem.bin then in the next releases the modem has always been updated, since December I got the problems.
As you said you might be the file modem.bin thread that does not work well.
I tried with Odin 3.12.3 to mount the only modem.bin file in CP .... just do not install me Odin is stuck before downloading it on the phone.
Do you know how to do it and why do not you install me?
I'll try to do this and then if it's okay I'll go to the Firmware BTU or DBT .... I think the modem is the problem too because the rest of the phone works and goes only in 2G/Edge
Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!
Ciao vforvlive
Then I tried how you said to wipe ... install the DBT 6.0.1 firmware of the latest in germany and then wipe again nothing works .... only working with 2g network.
I just noticed that H + just keeps the uploaded arrow down there is virtually no data exchange.
I also tried to put the modem.bin file when my phone worked with odin not installing me.
It's absurd I changed 20 firmware nothing ever does the same thing.
It is not even the antenna or some other thing because in 2g it normally works it obviously travels like a snail.
