SGH-I497 update - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if there is either a Lollipop or Marshmallow update for the tablet? I have been looking for the last few days and either this tablet isn't listed, or they want you to jump through looking at a bunch of ads to get access. All I want to do is upgrade from the 4.1.2 that AT&T thinks is good enough.
Thanks for any help.

This might not be the correct thread for your device. This thread is for P3100, P5100, and all its variants.

thats not correct, this is a galaxy tab 2 forum. the sgh-i497 is also a tab 2 variant.
to answer OP question: there is no custom rom for your device available, i think.

Figures, thanks.

Question about two different stock rom options

hey guys, i tried searching the forums but ended up having to post this question. is "GT-P3113_XAR_1_20120412104938_ldcgx9tzmx.zip" (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645295) the same as "IML74K-P3113UEALCB-stock.zip" (dead link found here: http://goo.im/devs/jcase/IML74K-P3113UEALCB-stock.zip)?
just curious if they are the same because i will be reverting my galaxy tab 2 7.0 back to stock rom to send it in for repairs.
just thought i'd ask here since xda developers are the best in the biz right now.
thanks in advance.
The thing is you need to be sure it matchs your region you bought it from.
Check samsung-updates.com, they have the latest in different areas directly from the samsung kies servers.
Hope this helps

just bought the galaxy tab 2 7.0 from Costco. I think I need the one from goo apps but link has been disabled. Wish "jcase" could reupload it.
**UPDATE**: the model # on my original box says "GT-P3113TSSXAR". SW-VER is "UEALD3". so yes, i do need the version that jcase had uploaded. damn.

Rooted Stock JellyBean On Galaxy S3

I was wondering how one would root the galaxy S3 and flash stock Jellybean on it, would it be possible? I have only rooted my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 before and it was very easy, but this is obviously more difficult. Is there a way to do it? I have the gt-I9305t Model, on Telstra 4G.
Do you have the S3 or the S3 LTE.
If the i9305 LTE there are several threads here that describe how to root, this is the one I folowed; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914394 but I would recommned this; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935570
Make sure your actual phone model is the supported or you can brick it.
If you do not have the LTE then head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1685, I would follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488 or just go through the thread as there is probably just a rom you can flash via Odin which is pre-rooted.
It is all very simple, just make sure you do some reading first.
EDIT: Sorry, just saw you posted your model number. the 9305t is different so just search the forums as the ones I listed will probably brick your phone.
Why have you opened another thread for some thing that is already available click on c.f. root cwm recovery thread by aus dim this thread will be closed for sure. You don't even have to use search it's on the first page of this forum
It works for all I9305 and I9305t
There is no stock jelly bean Rom like cm at the moment.

[Q] Unsure how to root Galaxy Tab 2 P3110

Hey Guys,
I've just purchased a Galaxy tab 2 P3110 (7.0) and i would like to root the device, and put Cyanogenmod 10 or 10.1 on it, as this is christmas present for a close relative and want the added features Cyanogen offers. I already have this installed on a Samsung S3.
I've seen quite a few different guides on the forums and other websites, all with differing ways to root the device and install custom ROM, can someone please provide a recommended guide to follow.
Check the 7 tab development thread.
Basically you need to download a program named Odin and use it to flash the proper cwm recovery to your tab. Then you boot that recovery to install the rom. You don't need to root, rooting is only if the rom you use is not rooted, like stock rom etc. You also don't need to unlock the bootloader or anything like that.

Kies is just so that you have the correct usb drivers so that your device is recognized by windows. You can also just install the drivers stand alone or Kies.
get odin and the file from the chainfire topic on the dev section
flash it and voila
quite simple, purchased mine last week and already flashed a lot of things
Amongst a slur of guides to rooting your Galaxy Tab 2 7" 3110, this video helped my a lot.

Hey Guys,
Thanks for all your great help so far.
Not sure if this is applicable but figured i would check before i do it. I've noticed on my device its listed as a P3110, but on a few of the instructions and the CF-AUTO root its listed as model number GT-P3110, from what i have its a plain tab 2, without phone.

yeah we just drop the GT- from the front of the model name as a sorta shorthand the 3 Models for the 7" (not counting the verizon that uses a different model number string) are the GT-P3100, GT-P3110 and GT-P3113 and the 10.1" versions replace the 3 at the beginning with a 5 so they are GT-P5100, GT-P5110 and GT-P5113 they are the same thing whether they have the GT in front or not, its just quicker to not type it out everytime.
BRILLIANT

Thank you guys for all your brilliant help the last few days, hopefully i can return the favor when it comes time to other people asking the some questions
I got 10.1 up and going nicely took less than 10 minutes to get it all happening

[Q] Absolutely Lost - Tab 2 10.1, but the Sprint released version. SPH-P500 ..

I'm just looking for a working custom ROM for that model. The others don't seem to want to install for me. I'm rooted, have recovery taken care of, but need a ROM that's compatible.
Thanks.. Sorry for my noobness.
Your best bet will be Google, don't now if there is any development in XDA for sprint network tabs. You cannot use anything that says p51xx or p3100, these roms will brick your network tab..

Thanks for the reply. So far my Google-Fu has been pretty weak, but I'll keep at it.

Model number problems

People I need an expert opinion here. Let me first say if I'm posting in the wrong place apologies. I have an old international Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 and stamped on the rear case it quite clearly states "Model GT-N8010". I'm trying to install a custom ROM but each one I try for that model states the model is wrong. I have successfully installed one that said it was for the N8013 and another Cyanogen one supposed to be for the N8000. I'd REALLY appreciate thoughts on what the hell is going here. Thank you for reading.

Hi John,
The N8013 firmware is the same than the N8010. It is just the US version whereas the other one is the international one, that's the only difference.
You can even flash the N8000 firmware, it wil work properly but as it is a 3G version you don't really need it on your N8010
