I have been looking for the official firmware of SHV-E150S for the past three days, and I came up empty.
I have tried various methods, such as the KIES hack, without any luck.
In case you are wondering SHV-E150S is the Korean version of the Galaxy Tab 7.7 LTE
The problem with SHV-E150S is that since it's not a popular phone in Korea, Samsung is neglecting its support for the phone.
Thus, there has not been a single firmware update since its release early this year. So I do not think I can use KIES to obtain the firmware
I am really desperate right now, and any help to find a firmware for SHV-E150S will be greatly appreciated.
By the way, according to the KIES registry information, the Software Revision version is E150SKRFB25, which I'd assume it to be the firmware version.
Also, if other (foreign) firmwares can be used for the phone, please give me some pointers or directions.
I really don't care about maintaining the locality or korean-specific aspects of this phone
Thanks in advance.
I didn't even know there was a Korean LTE version, let alone one with PHONE functions. I wonder if a dev can hack an image of that tab to work on the i815 to gain phone functionality. The E150S seems to have different LTE bands tho ;[

i815: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=3257&c=verizon_samsung_sch-i815_galaxy_tab_7.7_lte
I can dream, right ?
Sorry tho. I Wish I could help.
Maybe a dev here can help you obtain CWM for the device so that you can create a stock nandroid image?
Actually all I need to do is root the phone, since I need it for development.
Since a rooted firmware does not exist, I just assumed that I would need the stock firmware for rooting.
Please correct me if I am wrong, and let me know how to root it without getting the stock firmware.
This root method has worked so far for the 6800, 6810 and i815 versions. Maybe it would work for you?

Thanks for the input,
But it says,
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
And, something funny about my tablet is that it seems like it's not reading from the SD card. I had to save it in the tablet for the recovery tool to see the file.
Problem Solved!!
I finally got the firmware thanks to
samsung-update.com
SAMMOBILE
The firmware for SVH-E150S can now be found at either
sammobile.com
samsung-updates.com/latest-firmware
It seems like I can't post the urls since I am new to this forum....
So can't write down the full URL, but I figure most of you should know these websites already

must root shv-e150s
Dear kthlee,
It appears you were able to download the ROM image and root your galaby tab. I bought a shv-e150s in Korea last year. And I very much want to root it to get rid of several annoyances that are useless if you are not in Korea. Can you perhaps post a step-by-step of how you did it? I know how to download the image from sammobile, that is not the problem. What to do afterwards is what I do not know. I fear I will just end up with a newly formatted tablet, still not rooted. Thank you in advance.
I've been searching two months looking for firmware for my device and haven't found anything that works like the original firmware did.
My tablet is a Trio Stealth G4 10.1 8gb (MST-1041). It got messed up after I tried installing cwm which froze and when my tablet rebooted it just said installation error over and over again.
Things that I could find out about this tablet ...
Allwinner A31Series with AP6210, was running 4.4.2 (KOT49H), exdroid 4.4.2_r2-a31-v4.6
This is where it gets hard. The board says INET-Q101-REV02 Zeng-gc 2014-03-08, and on the underside iQ101-BT CT 8010/2.
Does anyone know of a firmware for this device or is compatible with this device? Some other questions, what's the difference between Q101 and Q102?
i was trying to remove kingroot and replace it with supersu after rooting; changed some superuser files and rebooted, now android won't load and i don't have a stock ROM or backup.
ironically i was trying to switch to supersu to get flashfire to work since i can't find a custom recovery (or any files or official english documentation) for it and don't trust flashing a possibly compatible custom recovery; it is a chinese, unbranded 8 inch tablet with built in projector, the ROM installed on it is likely customized from a network projector build of kitkat 4.4.4. the only scant documentation it came with is entirely in chinese, since it has no real "brand" i have no company site to visit for help and official downloads.
i tried a factory reset with no luck, and the stock recovery requires signed packages which would be excellent if i knew where to procure them.
the only thing i am certain of is the model rk3188, which is rockchip. i tried scouring through their entire list of firmware downloads but could not find anything close to BULUSE, H69, T80, YS, or any of the other generic names i've found it listed under.
this is the tablet:

Dear Android Brothers and sisters,
I am wanting to update the firmware on my S6 (downloaded from SAMmobile) but am in an odd position...
My S6 main board failed (unable to see mobile networks), and after trying everything in the known universe to fix this, concluded it was hardware and purchased a second hand main board off eBay, that I've now fitted. It was working OK, but is from France (I am in England).
It worked OK but had an ancient stock ROM. The first thing I wanted to do was install Lineage, however there didn't seem any option to allow for the bootloader to be unlocked to allow me to flash the TWRP recovery. After much 'jiggary pokery', I downloaded the English firmware from SAMmobile, extracted all of the binaries and tried to flash them individually using Heimdall (I run Linux not Windows). Whilst this worked for some, there appeared to be a mismach in the partitions that were expected - I guess this is something to do with the France firmware being structured differently? So after a bit of soft-bricking, I managed to get Lineage on the phone, which is mostly working, but behaving somewhat strangely. At the end of the day, I want the latest firmware (radio etc.) and to have Lineage working OK.
Is it possible for me to somehow flash the English firmware on this French board (including the PIT which I assume relates to the partition structure which will allow it all to work)? Any ideas how I'd do this? If I'd have to use Odin, so be it, I'll do it work on my windows box, but ultimately I would like someone to confirm I can do this without bricking my phone. I've read around and people seem to suggest it would be OK but I don't know the best way to do this. I assume the best way to get to my stable end, would be to flash the latest English firmware from SAMmobile, unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP then install Lineage in the 'normal' way?
Any thoughts or suggestions (including pointers to other posts I may have missed) really gratefully received !
Cheers,
Neon
Ok, to make a long story short... I bought a refurbished LG V50 Thinq off of Ebay, not realizing that it was a Korean phone because IT WAS IN ENGLISH WHEN I GOT IT! I got another phone and was going to let a friend borrow it so I factory reset it... not only is it still all Korean, I must have tripped Knox or something because the touchscreen doesn't always work- I can tap on stuff til my fingers are raw and some options just never become available! I have successfully downgraded the firmware and then upgraded again using the Patched LG Flash Tool. I tried using the Flash Tool 2014, as it has a drop-down box that allows you to change the language but I always get a "failure to connect to server" error. I tried messaging the seller but he never replied, of course.
So has anyone got maybe a custom ROM that is in English? Or just some instruction on what needs to be changed inside the firmware? I'm still new to all of this and it's quite frustrating. Perhaps I installed the Flash tool incorrectly and that's why it isn't working...?
Sorry thus post is so long; I have been scavenging the forums for weeks and have not found a solution so any help is greatly appreciated.
