Hello,
I have a galaxy tab 2 10.1 GT-P5100.
the ROM is my carrier's ROM that removed the dialer.
Now I want to root the tab, and then change the rom.
I found a guide on how to root the device, but now I am really confused, because, I want the official rom and not CyanogenMod(yet :laugh
Now, I don't know what to do: I found a website "SamMobile" with many firmwares available to download, and I don't know what to choose.
I don't even know if I flash a firmware will that change my rom, or a firmware is a different thing.
Is flashing firmware the same as flashing rom?
Maybe if I flash a new firmware, I will have the same rom? is that it?
Is there a way I can change my carrier's rom to "stock" Samsung rom?
I'm really confused here:silly:
Thanks everyone who helps!

Its quite simple on the samsite use the check firmware on the top of page..,you put in your device,country etc and it will give you the latest firmware for your device.
once flashed root it.

Thanks it was really helpful but I still remained without some answers maybe you could help:
1. So for an official firmware I don't have to root?
2. The problem is my country latest firmware is ics 4.0.4 and without the 3g apps (dialer, ,messaging) , can I simply choose firmware of another country?
3. If I update to a firmware of another country will it also change the rom and I will have the dialer app back or upgrading firmware doesn't change rom but only the Android version?
Maybe I should just root and change to cyanogen? Will it add the telephony?
Thanks, sorry for the long annoying post.

1)I dont quite get this question?.if you flash Samsung latest firmware you can then root it and then you can modify as you have root.
or you can flash any other firmware you want from any country as long as you get the language.there are lots of firmwares from different country's that are multilingual.Basically install the firmware of your choice then root device.
2)i am not sure but for 3g you will or may need your country's base-band for it to work but everything can be modified once device is rooted.Example: install a firmware that you want but it is not for your country then flash correct baseband for your country.
or just install a custom rom that contains all you need..look here for roms etc http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203309
3)if you update it does just that it will not change rom but fix a few bugs or add something not in last version.It wont take anything away.it basically is a update for improvements.
hope this helps but have a good look at all the threads related to your device and you will no doubt find what you need.

You are really helping , I really thank you. I will try to explain you my question more:
For changing roms, you need to root device, and change recovery and then change rom,
But for a firmware updating manually by downloading firmware from Sammobile, using odin and download mode, I do not need to root nor change recovery?
What will happen if I update firmware of other country that has Android Jelly Bean 4.1.2 over my country's firmware (my country has only 4.0.4)? Will it brick my device? or it will just update to 4.1.2 and I will remain with my same carrier rom without dialer ? or it will also change the rom of the matching firmware?
I hope you understand now because I am starting to understand thanks to your help
(So firmware is not rom!)

Firmware is rom. You don't need custom recovery if you flash stock rom=firmware using Odin. You don't need root to flash custom recovery. You need custom recovery (like CWM) if you want to flash a custom rom (like CM).
You can flash another country's stock rom using odin, but it will wipe your device. Wipe as in clean, not brick, if you flash the rom for your model.
And how is it that your carrier removed the dialer from P5100? Why would anyone do that? Are you sure your nodel is not 5110?

Thanks!
My model is P5100 - there is a sim slot. My carrier did that probably because of tax issues (If a device is "phone" you pay much more taxes in my country) , so my P5100 is only for the internet.
So I can simply choose another firmware(=rom?) that did not remove the dialer?
I also saw in the "Frequently Asked Questions - Galaxy Tab 2" here, that you need to choose rom with the correct "baseband"confused.
How do I know which firmware from which coutnry will fit me and will make the dialer work? or it doesn't matter here?
Can I follow this guide and it will work?
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/460859/20130424/galaxy-tab2101-p5100-android412-xxdmc3-jellybean-release.htm
(All I have to do is simply flash the official firmware with odin in the same way you flash CWM recovery for example?or it's a bit different?)
or the best thing to do would be root, cwm, and install CM? Does that unlock the tab? I mean, will I be able to use a different carrier's sim with CM?
Thank you very much !

I'd highly recommend going for CM, though it's my personal opinion, and there are people quite happy with stock rom. For me the performance of stock was unbearable.
If there is 4.1 rom for your country, you should flash it (preferably using odin), before flashing CM. That way you will take care of the baseband and bootloader problem. If there is no 4.1 for your device for your country, you should try to find a rom from a different country, but containing your country's region configuration. For example I live in Poland (region code XEO), and because there is no 4.1 for Poland, I've flashed spanish (or was it french?) firmware, that had XEO. If there is no rom with your region's configuration (unlikely), then flash 4.1 rom from a country near yours.
Bare in mind that flashing a 4.1 stock rom is not necessary, but users claim that it reduces the possibility of certain bugs in CM 10.1.
And as for guides, I'd recommend using those you can find here, on xda, as you will not find better devs and specialists.

Ty again,
I've looked in SamMobile official firmwares, and there are 4 different criterias:
Product code,PDA,CSC,MODEM. which one of them do I need to match to my country? I mean, which one is supposed to be identical to my country? I checked Poland and France, and the only criteria that matches is "MODEM", the rest are different, so I think you need to find firmwares with only "MODEM" identical, or I'm wrong?
*Is there an international baseband version, like there is on Galaxy s3 i9300 for example?Can I make my tab be used with any sim card of any carrier in my country like the s3 i9300? or it's a different thing on this tab?
I dont understand something: If for official stock firmwares, there are different configuration, how come the same CyanogenMod fit all of the countries?I mean, there is no PDA,CSC,MODEM choosing when flashing CM,
Or, flashing CM does'nt change your current baseband version and that's the reason?
And Last thing - I saw that there are 2 ways of rooting this tab:
1)http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657056
2)http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957165
Which one should I use? because my tab comes with 4.0.4 and the 1st method says it's only for 4.0.3, so should I use the 2nd method CF-auto root? will that work too?
CM is just so goddamn awsome that it works on every device, no matter what country it is...
And what is your country? Maybe I'll find a firmware for you, because I seriously don't know answers to most of the questions you've asked in your post...
As for the rooting method, I've used Chainfire's auto root, and it did its job.

So I will be able to use it on any carrier? Nice! ? I was sure it only changes the appearance. (I'm really a noob that's why I still use this nick )
I am going to root it and change it to CM now
I'm from Israel btw.
btw, using download mode for flashing is only for official roms ? what will happen if I try to flash a custom rom with Odin and download mode?
Thanks again!
I've no idea what will happen when you flash cm without using CWM, but it is not a good idea to experiment with this things... Do exactly as the dev of cm explains in cm thread.
I did it! first time I changed a rom lol.
At first boot , the tab was stuck at the CyanogenMod boot animation so I entered recovery and re-booted and it worked.
btw, installing stock firmware is done the same way as a custom rom? Via CWM>Install zip from sd card? (stock firmware is much larger than CM 10.1 => 750MB+/- vs 150MB+/-)

That answered some of my questions, thanks.
Please see screenshot for my mutiCSC firmware. I am running Android 7 but haven't changed CSC since I got the phone in December 2016. I got it with Marshmallow on it. Everytime I upgrade firmware with Odin I select Home CSC so my CSC never changes.
Since the solution is in the CSC (afaik), which CSC do you recommend I flash with Odin? I understand how to flash with Odin if CSC not in my multiCSC firmware (tick re-partition, etc...)
My home network is Vodafone (CSC is XVF which is not part of my CSC).

If i got it right you are not root, right? if you are root there are other ways....
Yes you need the right CSC to make it work , in this case Vodafone XFV.
When you change to a different CSC is recommended to check re partition to adjust to the possible change in partitions
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930F/XFV/download/G930FXXU1DQD2/131635/
Download the firmware and extract the correct CSC from it , if you do not want all the vodafone stuff you could download and unbranded firmware and use the BL ,CP , AP from it and the CSC (XFV) from Vodafone and flash it all together
BACK UP FIRST .......

Hello amazing XDA devs,
I need a bit of advise and help with flashing oreo firmware on my device. I have already done a lot of research already but have failed to find any satisfactory answer. So here is my story,
I purchased my galaxy s8+ from korea. Model number is G955N. I wasn't able to get volte signal on it hence, rooted it and changed the csc to India.
In the process I also had to update my BL to AQL3.
I am now trying to flash an indian firmware on my korean device. i.e. installing SM-G955FD firmware on SM-G955N device. I undestand hardware of both the devices (korean and indian) are same. So, there should not be any problem in this cross flashing of firmware. However, ODIN doesn't allow this.
Here are my few queries which I hope you can help me with
1) Would it allow me to flash *FD firmware on *N device if I use prince comsy odin or some other custom odin?
2) Do I need to flash *N oreo BL if I decide to flash any other custom oreo rom which supports F/FD/N variants?
3) Where can I find *N oreo BL and AP to flash if only option is to install custom oreo rom?
4) If I flash oreo firmware for *N variant, would I loose my csc changes and I will have to start all process again to get back volte signal?
I know this is a long list of question. But, I am sure a lot of people have these queries and it will help all of them in understanding the process and upgrade their devices if these questions can be answered.
Would appreciate your help on this matter.
Thanks,
I got it..just flashed the oreo rom from twrp and everything seems to be working fine.
hello. which custom did you flash ? also need it. thanks
I have my G955N made 2 sims aleady.
I observed that the developer did the following steps:
1. They made it support 2 sims: IMEI guru software
2. They flashed custom that supported G955X:Renovate ICE in xda
3. They changed 1 slot sim tray with 2 slot sim trays.
4. I observed that BL and CP are of G955N but AP and CSC are else from G955X.
Thanks?.
I don't find note 20 ultra Dual sim firmware. Does the N986b/ds use same firmware as the N986b without loosing dual sim function? Reason I'm thinking on flashing is cause I have a xfa version and network reception is really bad and thinking on flashing btu. Do u guys think that a new firmware might help? (all other devices I get 3 bar at home and with note 20 ultra sometimes I have no network)
Check here for your required FW.
N986B is the Global Exynos model (it is Dual-SIM = DS); in case if any regions are single-SIM for this particular model (I'm not aware as such), the N986B FW will still be the same as for DS.

It's possible I think.
But..... only try other Exynos region FW (cannot flash FW for SnapDragon variants on N986B without running into problems).
Check on Note 20 threads regarding properly changing CSC.
Also, there are some .xml modification solutions that enable you to activate extra 4g/5g bands - worth a search & try.
(Sorry I don't have the links to hand, but recall seeing these discussions before on N20 XDA forums).

When you un-compress the firmware download you will get five files. Each go into a specific part of ODIN - can't mistake it - but if you want to keep data intact you will need to flash Home_CSC. This will NOT change your regional CSC however.
You also need the "hacked" version of ODIN found on this forum easily.

If I flash that 5 files will I still be able to get Ota?
When I flash should I use CSC or HOME CSC. So that I keep getting updates? I think that if I flash UK international firmware, will sort alot of my issues. It feels in my country software is never very stable.
Flashing CSC will delete your Data but flashing HOME_CSC will not delete your Data.

Will both ways I still get Ota even if I install btu firmware? (is there any benefit on me flashing the csc and not Home_CSC?)
Once bootloader unlocked I don't think you can get OTA - You'll need to flash FW updates manually.
Flash CSC for clean install.
Flash HOME_CSC if just updating FW & need to preserve user data.

Is it the mismatch between CSC codes?
Firmware and active CSC codes are different.
Well, you have a phone from Malaysia; while the ROM is French.
You can change both.
To change ROM CSC that's simple. Grab the relevant CSC rom from Sammobile or any other firmware site and install via ODIN. (Most phones have a relevant section/guide in their XDA sub-forum.)
To change device CSC, you need tools and it may not be supported at all. I used "SamKey", you need to buy keys from the company, but it worked. On my Note 10+ it worked, on my Note 9 it worked, on my S10e it worked. On my Note 9 512GB it failed. Basically the tool has to support your specific device variant AND if you are on latest firmware you must wait because they need time to make the tool compatible.

Well, I suppose you want to match the device's CSC, so I'd grab the XME one from Sammobile. And you need ODIN to flash. The whole ordeal should not affect your e-fuse/warranty/KNOX status. At least I never managed to trip mine by doing these.
But, I also used mismatch CSC firmware for months if not years at times and it didn't do a thing. Like I didn't notice any difference. I wanted to enable call recording, but I realized it only works if I change device CSC and then also flash the relevant ROM.

but if you want to relock bootloader make sure the CSC is same as the origin. Or you might brick your phone.

SamKey is a paid, third-party software.
- You have to buy credits for it to work. So you need to pay.
- It may or may NOT support your device (they do refund if it's not supported).
- You don't need to be a Hollywood hacker to use it, but if you are really unfamiliar with everything in general - I would recommend not using it.
