Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You find the stock firmware for Samsung devices at sammobile.com Also see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/general/link-original-firmware-images-tab-4-7-t2978495 and this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1

are there any other links avaliable as those links dont work

The first one is working for me. Here's the second one, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1
Edit, hmm not sure why that's not working, Google galaxy tab 4 10.1 xda

i dont need the second 1 as thats just the general page for all the info, i accessed that as soon as i came onto this site, i just need another source for the firmware so i can load it into odin and get my tablet back up and running again

Have you tried sammobile.com?

right i'm getting it now, do i install this via kies or odin?

Odin, you'll download a zip extract it using 7-zip or winrar. Use the .tar.md5 file in odin

[Q] unlock or flashing question

i have samsung mesmerize and want to use it on boost does anyone know the unlock procedure or my next question is i have located the rooted samsung prevail files for odin is there a way i can flash these files to the mesmerize
For sure you'd need the modem.bin file. Open the odin file as a .tar and see if it is in there. I too am interested in this.
If you find info for how to do it with a fascinate, that'd work on your mes too

Ok I have the files there is an. Ops file a pda.tar file a boot.tar file and a phone.tar file its using Odin multi downloader v 4.42 I noticed on the Odin used for mesmerize and fascinate their is a pit input where the ops is at on the newer version so my next question is do I use the pit version of Odin or the ops version and in what order do I want to flash the files as for boost being cdma it is and some of their phones use the aim method as well not sure as to why though. I have two of these mesmerizes so I would like to unlock them both but don't want to brick them any help would be greatly appreciated and I will keep everyone posted to the results of this

I will like I said I have two of them and the recovery files for mesmerize so if it fails recover and try again I have been scouring the internet trying to see if a ops file can be converted to a pit file or vice versa
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I have been able to flash back the mesmerize several times but when I try to flash the pda file from the prevail odin3 stops and then my phone has the phone triangle computer logo and I have to reflash I think if someone who knew more about the files could compose a pit file from the ops file compatible with odin3 this would work like I said ill be the test dummy lol worse can happen is inturn it into a paperweight but even that's hard to if u have adb

These type of things are usually wild goose chases that are never successful. Frankly, I'd just get a Boost Mobile phone.
Any Progress?
I have been searching for the same exact thing... and stumbled on this thread after posting quite a few times myself.
If anyone has been able to get it to work I would love to know.
Thanks,

What to do... what to do...

I did not make a nandroid of my stock system (30 lashes with my own strap). Consequently I've been looking for the stock firmware to download. It is apparently only available through hotfile.com and I can't complete a download (been trying all day). Does anyone have stock jellybean for the gt-p5113 that can pm me to make arrangements to share through dropbox or something.
Thanks
Edit: I'm in the USA so I need what seems to be the general version.

Bro its not necessary that you flash original firmware!!!
Go to development section and download a Rom say ripper Rom.
Its good and flash it via cwm recovery!!!
And if you do not have recovery installed than install it.that will take 5 minutes at max
Enjoy.

I realize this is kinda ocd but I'm really upset that I didn't make a nandroid before I flashed cm10.1. Consequently, if I ever need to return my tablet to Samsung I can't revert it to stock. I'm just trying to get a working copy of the firmware (jellybean for gt -p5113 USA version) to have on hand. I'd like to try other roms but I want the ability to revert to stock first.

Bro first flash any Rom,you can download that as file hosting sites for them are good.so you get your device working.
And later when you get stock firmware via hotfile just simply flash that.

Thanks it's working fine with CM 10.1. I'm just being a little crazy about not having the backup and trying all day without getting a download. I suppose it will eventually download if I keep trying. Sorry for the bother. ( and I'm not a bro I'm a grandma LOL)

No reason to start 2 threads on the same topic. Mods will most likely close one of them. Hotfile is as good as it gets. I suggest you check your internet connection. Downloading by phone is not the best way. And if you use a pc then make sure your computer does not go to sleep before the download is finished. Almost all the files in the links I gave are US. Cellular South is Mississippi. Not sure what the XAC region code is.

I'd be happy for them to close both! I feel dumb for even asking. I'm still trying the download... if it fails again I'll try on my PC. Thanks for your help!!!

It's in the T-Mobile Note 3 forum, Original Android Development section, or just go to the twrp website and search for hltetmo. You should be able to flash over your existing twrp using the existing twrp and a .zip of the new one.

Can update with Goo Manager. Get from Play Store.

[Completed] Is it possible to ota update with custom recovery

Since 5.x it's not possible. You need to be 100% stock. See your device's forum if you don't know how to do that.
