Hi all, I need some help with this. I have the Galaxy tab 7.7 SCH-i815. It's not unlocked or anything, because I'm not sure how to do this.
Anyway, for the longest time now I'm getting a notification prompting me to update the software, but when I try to do this, it will say that it was unsuccessful. The current Android version is 4.0.4. See the attached photo for details.
How can I get it to install the update? It's driving me nuts!
The same thing happened to me. LP11 (the new update for the i815) is not better than LP10 (the one you have now)
So just ignore it, you dont need the update, they are both android 4.0.4 and LP11 has worse battery life.
But if you really want to get it, you need to reflash the stock 3e recovery.

I made a mistake..................:crying:
I let one of my tablets (Galaxy Tab2 7.0 P3113) Wi-Fi only do a upgrade to JB from ICS.
Well...............I HATE JB ok, it's way too funky and does not seem to work right (Swype 1.4 keeps popping up saying Not working or something BUT it still works).
Google search for me (IMHO) sucks on JB (with the Samsung UI overlay of course).
So I have been looking, I called Samsung, they said they would re-do my tablet with a 7-10 day turn around to downgrade it (free I guess) if I ship my tablet to them.
OK BUT I would like to see if there is a STOCK Samsung image of ICS rom from the GT P3113 Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 out there that I could get.
I hope I am getting the correct one now but not sure.
Is there a way to just flash the firmware rom from a sd card? The tablet is NOT rooted.
If anyone can help me I app it.

You should be able to flash these with odin.
Edit: but be sure to backup your stuff first as this will factory wipe your tab.

You can flash the firmware yourself using Odin, but this will void your warranty.
Unless if you give it to samsung.
Forum members:
I recently user rooted my device per the forum excellent instructions but now am unable to to update the firmware for the android OS. When I get the popup notifying me that an upgrade has been downloaded, I go through the drill of rebooting to the Odin screen and then reboot but am then advised that the upgrade failed and something about using Kies. I user rooted the device in anticipation of installing Ubuntu but haven't done it yet. I intended to be able to dual boot depending on what I am working on. I use the android OS most of the time and it works ok but will not upgrade itself. I have searched the posts regarding the inability to upgrade android when the system is rooted but haven't found anything that I understand or that tells me whether or not it is even possible to upgrade the android OS when user rooted. Can anyone answer the question succinctly and if it is possible point me to instructions on how to do it. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

Hi. That's right, you can't make OTA official updates anymore if you rooted the tablet.
You can however download the new firmware version from sammobile (official non-rooted) or some custom version from XDA, then flash it with odin or mobile odin (for official), or CWM (for custom "zip").
Here's a tutorial for Galaxy Note, but it might work for your tablet too - anyway it gives you an idea of how that can be done. The written procedure is here.
going through the same issue...
I am having the same troubles as the person who started this thread. I rooted my samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 from the instructions that I found on this forum. I also installed ClockWork Mod recovery as per the rooting instructions. Now that I am hearing that I will be unable to update to jelly bean (official) because I rooted my device what can i do to work around this problem?
What if we reboot into Clock Work Mod recovery and use the option to restore device to stock firmware? If we did that option it would restore the tablet back to its factory resetting and then could we upgrade to Jelly Bean using the "software update" option?
Or is downloading a firmware from sammobile the best option?
I am really not sure about what to do next...
Hope to hear some kind of response on what to do next...
You can get JB stock from sammobile and flash it with odin. Or you can get a custom JB rom from xda and flash it with cwm. There's nothing complicated about upgrading, both ways are good. I would pick the second one, this way you stay rooted.
Hi,
I installed Electron's ICS rom on my Verizon GT 7.7. It works great! However, now I'm getting constant update notices to install the update that Verizon is trying to push out (for the reduced battery consumption). This update is for honeycomb, so I'm sure I don't want to install it. The tablet is working great and I wouldn't want to mess with that right now anyway.
Does anyone know how to disable the auto-update checking, or freeze the update process? I saw in another post that someone was able to freeze the process, but he didn't say what process it was. I did some searching on the interwebs but came up with nothing.
The tablet is rooted (the Electron ROM came pre-rooted).
Any advice would be appreciated!
Hi,
I own galaxy s4 i9505, had stock firmware i9505xxugnh7 on kitkat, then installed custom rom and after a month decided to go back to my stock firmware. since im pretty new in this world i spent a lot time on these forums, but nothing helped me. Downloaded the same firmware, then newer etc, tried to instal via odin, every time says fail., and when try to turn on the phone says firmware upgrade encountered an issue.
dont know what to do anymore. if someone with more experience can help me, step by step, would be really really grateful.. losing hope here.
p.s . really sorry for my english, not my first language
As in the title states I have the galaxy tab 2 7.0 and recently I installed CWM and a ROM and everything looked like it went right however after I reloaded my tablet nothing seems different it jus seems to return to stock setting and now I cant do the OTA software update which means now certain apps and games I can no longer uses as it says my device isnt compatible. My goal was to simple update from Jellybean to at Least Kitkat.
Can someone help me. where did I go wrong?

Well after a short research I found a ROM called Resurrection Remix, loaded with 5.0.2 (or Lollipop) however now everything is force closing and I barely got my laptop to see it as MTP again after installing a new Binary (glad that did that trick for that) but I cant get it to boot into CWM Recovery bc I cant access the app the only thing it will let me do right now is change the Binary.
How can I fix this issue?
Edit: Okay so I got that solved with doing a factory reset twice, booted in CWM, loaded up the GApps. Now just wondering if there is away to make it not seen with phone options like the dialer or msgs as its jus a plan old tablet, doesnt take a sim card and has no carrier. I do have the source code but I am not tweaking that til I get a better understanding of it.
After a lot of research and tries (amazingly without bricking) I am now running an even newer version of a CM 13 Marshmellow
