Hello,
I'm looking to return my P5110 UK tablet to stock. Unfortunately I cannot get hold of the firmware as they all seem to be hosted with Hotfile which has shut down.
Can anyone help provide a mirror?
Thanks.

go to samsung-updates.com and select your tab and download the desired file
there is also a way to download the file from upload.net along with hotfile so you can choose
Tried that but clicking either of the download links for my tab just opens another page of the same thing (and uploading)! I can't believe downloading Samsung firmware is so difficult, it seems nearly all links are Hotfile.
Don't Samsung themselves offer firmware files?
Thanks.

Thanks, found it.
I think at the d/l speeds it might be done by the end of the week!!! Oh well, better than nothing.
Hopefully I'll find a quicker mirror in the meantime.

Well this is turning into a nightmare. Who would think firmware for a Samsung product would be so hard to find. The only one I have managed to download for my Tab 2 is not playing nice with tablet (took 15 hours to d/l). It was the firmware for 4.2, not sure if that is the problem as I had ICS before. Anyway, gone back to Samsung Updates, pretty much every single file is just showing as "uploading" on their mirrors. God know how long that will remain.
I have searched on google since yesterday morning for a firmware file, 99% of them are hosted with Hotfile which is obviously dead. You would think Samsung themselves would make these files available
I picked a good time to decide to unroot my tablet. Figured firmware files would be easy enough to get hold of!!!

Hi there,
Long time lurker, first time poster and overall Newb.
I was wondering if anyone could please provide concise instructions on How to restore my phone to stock Galaxy 3 2.2 Firmware.
I have it Rooted (via super one click), OC3 Mod 2.6.32.9 and Kyorarom Infinity (v0.4.1 JPU) currently and am having major issues with stability.
Yet How can I restore it to Factory so that Kies recognises it?
Ive tried the hard reset with the button pressing but it just loops back to oc3 mod. Do i need to "unflash" it somehow or reflash it to a base package?
Please Help.
Regards
Take a look at the stock ROMs here & download suitable one for your region.
BTW, you should have posted in the Q&A subforum.
Yep cheers, ill give that a crack, and copy that on posting elsewhere. tyvm
Hi guys. The link provided above seems to be broken, well the links embedded in them are broken. Can anyone advise me, which stock firmware i need for a Samsung Galaxy 3 bought in New Zealand, and provide an active link?
Thanks a bunch
look over here
Is there a way to tell, which firmware i need as stock from the above link, by looking at my phone physically? Or checking somewhere in settings? Im guessing its region should be North America...
physically theres no chance given
just use the settings -> scroll down -> telephone info
you see the versions here

flashing any of these will allow you to connect to KIES, that will tell you if you need another version

KIES:
in my former days I had the thought that KIES is really necessary and tried a lot of eclair FW versions from the link above (samfirmware), but none of them established a succesful connection with KIES.
Therefore I upgraded manually with ODIN and uninstalled KIES.
I dont miss a thing until now.
Good luck in finding a fw which connects with KIES.
I read anywhere that XXJG1 or XXJG7 is one the rare fw which could establish a KIES connection. Maybe I am wrong...
A feedback from anyone which of the fw versions can connect to KIES would be very helpfulin this topic.
Cheers

I can't seem to find the original, stock firmware for this device.
I just want to go through the actual upgrade process for the thing, and hsve looked through the development section of this forum...they're all rooted, which stops the official upgrade process....

has official stock 4.1.2
maybe on sammobile?
I downloaded it a while ago, but can't for the life of me remember where. I'll update my post if I find it tho
I downloaded mine off SamMobile. Took forever and several attempts due to the horrible Hotfile hosting. But I got both the 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 images. Both work perfect using Odin. You have to unzip them before loading into Odin
Thanks so much!!! Ugghh...hotfile...but yes, much appreciated. Downloading overnight,

Recently I believe to have bricked my phone (Stuck at Verizon Logo) I have looked around and downloaded all of the stock roms to flash onto my phone using odin in hopes of restoring it to a working condition but for the last week I havent been able to find any files that would download i would continuously get download errors from all the websites tried this on multiple computers on multiple wifi's so after a week of no phone and lots of frustration i have come here..... any help would be appreciated I just cant seem to find any actual .tar files to flash I beleive that im just missing something very obvious. Sorry if this is a dumb post
Edit: The one time I found a .tar file odin kept instantly crashing i re downloaded odin and it was still crashing

Which version of odin are you using? You don't have a mac do you?
Download the actual firmware for your phone from the official Samsung website. sammobile.com. Don't be downloading stock firmware from file hosts, or dropbox. You need to register for free on the official sammobile.com and then attempt to download your firmware. The firmware is a large file, so make sure to have good WiF/data connection. And yes, make sure you're using the latest version of Odin. Good luck!
normally I can just google and find it somewhere but this one is really giving me a hard time. I work on cell phones daily and I believe flashing this via Odin would fix the issue. But I can't find a firmware link thats not going to take 8-12 hours to download.
Does anyone have a faster download for the stock sprint firmware for G920P on 6.0 or above?
Thanks

I spent almost a whole day downloading this from a website that throttles download speeds if you're not a premium member or whatever. Lol. And then spent about an hour uploading it to my drive so that I could share it with everyone that has a J727P. Lol. I haven't been able to test it on my phone yet, but this is the Boost variant for the J7 Perx. I did open the archive in 7zip though and all of the files are present. Let me if it works and whatnot.
**EDIT!!**
I removed the link to the Sprint J7 Perx firmware and have added link to download the Boost Firmware. I'm sorry for linking the wrong variant!! I had scoured the internet for the firmware right after the update and didn't test it myself to make sure it was for Boost. The firmware in the link is indeed for Boost Mobile though. Carrier ID/Code is XAS instead of SPR. Sorry again to anyone that my tomfoolery has inconvenienced!!!
*****Correct J727PVPU3ARC2 Firmware For Boost Mobile*****
This link will direct you to the Boost Mobile Firmware for J7 Perx on updato. I don't have an actual ISP atm and get super crappy (super with a cape) upload speeds or I'd personally upload the files to my Google Drive and share them here like I did before. However, to my knowledge; updato doesn't throttle d/l speed, make you pay to have access to faster d/l speeds, or charge you to d/l firmware so you should be able to d/l the files fairly quickly. I use PDANet to tether my data connection to my PC and was able to d/l this firmware in roughly 15-20 minutes give or take. So, hopefully it's a little faster for those of you with an actual ISP! Although, for almost 2GB of files, 15-20 minutes isn't so bad compared to hours when downloaded from another firmware site that throttles d/l speed in order to coerce folks into paying for a premium membership. lol.

I tried this on my phone, and it worked but switched my carrier from Boostmobile to Sprint, do you happen to have the Boostmobile firmware? Or does anybody know how I could switch the carrier back to Boostmobile without losing the latest firmware update? Thanks.
I decided to download the BST (Boostmobile) firmware ARC2 myself from another website, and it is 100% working back to Boost mobile, about to root.
*BTW when I used the file Elaine uploaded, I only used the first 3 files (the BL, AP, CP) not including the CSC file, so Idk if that had anything to do with it. For the BST firmware I did use all 4 files, I don't think this would matter but I am not trying to experiment further with this! lol
Now I have to get good at removing bloat ware without bricking the phone, cause I have soft bricked it like 10 times now. So many crap apps that will mess with phone functionality it isn't funny.
So verr sorry, guy!!!

I AM SO SORRY! I downloaded the firmware I had previously provided right after the update came out and didn't realize that the Carrier ID/Code was SPR instead of XAS. I didn't test it before I shared it because I was just so excited that I had even found it and was able to share it with the xda community for our phones. I have provided a link to download the correct firmware for Boost Mobile in case anyone else needs it or in case you need to download it again for whatever reason in the future. It is in my original post on this thread as an edit. Please accept my utmost sincere apologies!!! If I would have taken the time to check the firmware personally instead of just posting it willy nilly, this would have been prevented and I am truly sorry for that. Thank you for letting me know that it was the Sprint variant instead of the Boost Mobile variant though! I'm very glad you said something so that I was able to post the correct firmware for others to avoid the misfortune that I negligently bestowed upon you. Good luck in your quest to learn more about removing bloatware as well! I'm more of a PC person than a Phone person, so I think that maybe I should stick to PCs and fixing those. Lol. Have a good day!
