SGT P1000 Bricked, please help guide me.. - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought a SGT P1000 2nd hand (unlocked from Orange UK) and it was working perfectly. I wanted to change the firmware as I am not keen on the branded orange firmware.
In my past experiences on mobile fone firmwares I am quite good. Anyway every firmware I try and fololw the guides for those firmwares I get always end up not able to boot from the Galaxy Tab Samsung screen.
all installs from Odin3 v1.7 are fine. even the Download logo on galaxy tab shows up but cant allways access back reboot area depending on firmware installed. but can never pass the Galaxy Tab Samsung screen.
I did not get any info from +#12345# <<<<---- i know i may have wrote that wrong) because i never checked i was lazy. so really I have no clue what firware i need to get exactly and any other bits i need.
so if anyone can advice i would be much appreciated my tab is
Samsung galaxy GT-P1000 from Orange PLc UK) Unlocked (2nd Hand)

What is the model of your GT. Check the back of the unit which should start with P1000 then a letter.
Once you have that, then go to samfirmware.com and look for the correct ROM for your model and download.
Download Kies on your computer to make sure drivers are installed and unit is connecting to your PC.
Download Odin 1.7 and follow instructions with downloaded ROM.
Good luck, most of us have been where you are today.
Let me know how it goes

hello fella thanx for the reply..
On the back of the galaxy tab it just says Model: GT-P1000
and on the box it says P1000 PM
I will follow what you said and have a go. thanx fella for the support
I will let you know what happens and be back to check this post in case you
have any further info.

well I have gone to this page fwandroid.htm on that site you suggested
and all i could find is Samsung P1000 / Galaxy Tab
no extra in list which have PM in letters.
I enter the link and it takes me to Europe Samsung P1000 Firmwares.
but also which do i choose cause i have no idea which is the right firmware for me as i see a list combining of for an example
Europe Firmware
P1000XXJH3 #
P1000XXJH8 #
P1000XXJHA ##
P1000XXJI2 ##
P1000XXJI4 ##
P1000XXJI5 ##

My GT is version P1000N so mine corresponds to America Australia Samsung P1000 Firmwares.
What I would do if I were in your situation, I would try to flash version P1000XXJMQ. By mistake I installed it on my device and it never worked because mine is from a different region but I was able to bring it to the correct firmware..
Go ahead and try it. Just make sure you know how to flash with odin, have a full battery and any other questions I'll be glad to see if I can be of any help to you.
By the way, your device appears to be from network carrier Play and from region Poland. You can confirm here samsunglettercode.htm in the site I mentioned earlier.
Good luck!

[Q] Flash T-mobile SGH-T849

I picked up a T-mobile Tab when I was in US and I want to use it in Europe with all European functions. Can I flash it to become equal to an European sold model?
Do I need to get the SIM unlock done first?
After I have done this, can I use KIES to do normal upgrades?
Thanks!
Bump
Still interested if anyone have flashed a US-Tab to Euro and then got it to work with Kies (doing upgrades etc).
I'm aware of the differences in modems support, but that is not an issue for me.
follow the steps
I have bought a T-Mobile tab a week ago and i have changed the Firmware with the European version to enable the dialer and then unlocked the phone with the hex edit by rotohammer first post.
So here is what you need to do
1) flash a euro firmware (get the latest from samfirmware.com)
and follow the instructions carefully.
2) unlock the device using the hack provided on the post here

Samsung SHG T849
I am a newbie. If I am in the wrong forum please redirect me.
My problem is that while flashing my t-mobile Samsung G tab using odin3 the power in my house went out and I am now bricked.
I get a logo that shows a graphic of a phone 2 dots and a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle, another 2 dots and a graphic of a PC.
When I try to get the download mode I cannot but I could get into a mode "Power reset or unknown upload mode" when I press both the 'up' and 'down' volume key at the same time as when I press the 'power on' key.
The logo would recycle every few seconds even if I try to power off.
I tried to let the battery run out and when I recharge the tab. the same thing repeats.
You need to re-flash using Odin!

I figured I would have to do that. Unfortunately my Sammy would not power down. It kept looping, off and on and when it was on, it gave me either the 'logo' or the 'power reset' message, both of which I described above. I even let the battery run down and upon recharge it immediately went into the loop I mentioned.
I tried to connect it to my PC but the PC would not recognize it at all. I checked to make sure I have the right drivers and I do.
I am hoping some one would know how to get the boot sequence working without having to physically open the pad.

If you can get back to that screen, which is download mode, you can reflash Roto-JME and get back to a working Tab.

I had to wait awhile to reply because the tab went dead - no power. I tried to recharge it but it did not hold enough power to let me complete the task.
I am recharging it for 24 hours hoping that it will hold enough charge to let me complete the task.
In the meantime I located several sites for Odin3 v 1.7 but I was unable to get the same pack as ayman019 had which probably came from you rotohammer. will it be possible to get the link so I will have the right software/firmware?
(I located P1000XXJHA.rar files but I am having difficulties unzipping it. Each time I try it asks for a password. or would not even allow me to unzip it at all)
hi just curious,

Hi,
T849 from T-Mobile accidently flashed with wrong firmware and tab become totally dead. Repaired boot with Riff Box, so I can enter in to download mode now but couldn’t find Roto-JME or stock firmware. All download links are dead or deleted.
Would you share Roto-JME please?
Thank you in advance.

Horrible guide. Setup for failure and no support.
There is hardly any need for this old firmware. You can always run any European GB rom for P1000 as long as you keep T-Mobile modem you get 3g or use jpz modem and you get voice.
And with roto modem switcher you can even switch between voice and 3g.
The link in my signature is overcome links. It has gb jq1 rom and method to flash it.

I have an SGH-T849. Trying to unlock it. Cant find any positive guides for custom roms or anything. Everything is only on the p1000 so I am taking my chances and flashing p1000 firmware so I can fit in.
You will be alright.
I am holding in my hand a T849 now running AOKP SGT milestone 6.
The T849 is exactly like a P1000 except the modem hardware.
I don't know about network unlocking though.

[Q] Kies "This version cannot be updated"; Telstra-Samsung Galaxy Tab 7in ABANDONED?

[Q] Kies "This version cannot be updated"; Telstra-Samsung Galaxy Tab 7in ABANDONED?
Hi Friends,
Last week I bought 2 Tabs (Currently at AUD 400 outright). Since playing & today I found that, in Kies it says "This version of device cannot be updated." [See attached image]
What does it mean? Telstra model is GT-P1000T. Does it means Samsung/Telstra will not issue updates/upgrades for GT-P1000T??
what if we upgrade unofficial ROMs? Does these models GT-P1000T/GT-P1000L/GT-P1000N/GT-P1000 have any hardware differences that can brick the tab?
I appreciate you feedback.
Thanks & Regards,
-------------------------------------------
Just ROOTed & Clockwork Recovery installed..
It means the version of kies has a problem
Hi - Yes I have the same issue. I just upgraded to the latest version of Kies, and I have a Telstra Galaxy Tab, and get the same message "This version of the device cannot be updated"..
Keen to understand whether other ROMs are workable to upgrade the device past the JJ3 PDA, JJ3 Phone and JJ4 (Tel) CSC
You can update to overcome rom. I flashed my telstra tab the other week. Works fine!
+1 can apply custom ROM. FYI I also bought it for $400 3 days ago but checked today.. & telstra got it $299 out right online only price... no winning for me :-(
wich method did you use to get clockwork on the telstra tab
same in uk
+1 for the Galaxy Tab WiFi GT-P1010. The Kies program indicates that I have the latest and there are no options for OTA updates. The firmware & Android had better be able to be updated.
Wow. I got my tab for $899 from Telstra in December. Cant belive they are selling them outright for $299. fwiw these are the same network freq as the ATT tabs and they run custom firmware without a problem.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
bought the tab from telstra on the 299 price tag. just installed kies on my windows pc and found that i have the same problem too.
Update: I got jmi via kies. If You are having issues try a custom rom at your own risk (jmi is way better than jj3)
I also have a Galaxy Tab, the P1000T. I have tried to root it so I could make a back up, but none of the rooting programs work. They go through the motions, but end result is nothing.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but to flash the device, with a 'unoffical' update, you need root access.
I don't want to brick the device, but I would like to update the OS/ROM.
Nowonmai, I have 2 Telstra p1000t's. You need to use super one click to root the tab. It's on the forum, do a search. Make sure to READ the instructions...
If you then decide to upgrade to Gingerbread, Follow the Instructions EXACTLY. I found the modem.bin in the [11.MAY.2011][ROM][GSM][2.3.3] ◄► Overcome ROM v2.0.0 BETA 2 ◄► GINGERBREAD!!! ◄► thread, the rest is in the [stock rom][2.3.3] p1000xxjq1 p1000xxjq1 p1000xxjpz thread...
Works a treat...

I searched for "super one click" and all I got back was "Super one hip", something about a bag for toting things for kids.
EDIT: I searched for it as superoneclick and located it. Sorry took a while for the caffeine to kick in.
did anyone find out how to upgrade to 2.3 on telstras galaxy tab??? please let me know. or post a link if already has been discussed in detail
Yep

Works fine.
CSC can be changed after flash (I set mine to XEU)
Product code still ends in (TEL) though and same error from Kies about unable to update.
Otherwise works fine and lost crappy Telstra apps and boot splash.
All good!
Rooting not required.
Solved
hi i have the same problem too. but i found a solution. (Singapore Galaxy Tab owners - no need to go to service center))
1 first back up (very important)
2 check your region using *#272*IMEI# (mine is XSP Singapore)
3 then i change it to XTC (Philippines)
4 it will make factory reset
5 update you kies
6 plug it and ready to upgrade
7 after the upgrade you can return it back to the previous region (no. 2) (optional)
8 restore back up
9 download all your previous apps.
then enjoy..........
How do you check you region code ?
check your region using *#272*IMEI# (mine is XSP Singapore)
I cant type "IMEI" in the dialer ?
Sorry got it.... I inserted my IMEI number in that place and could get through.

I bought 2 SGT GT-P1000's. I wrote about a debacle I had purchasing them, as both said they were from U.K.-London addresses. Anyway, because they still had some Korean apps on the official Samsung Apps software, I sent them both in from the U.S.A. to Great Britain to have them "officially" put the correct English only software on them.
Long story short, got both back. One was updatable through KIES, one wasn't. They deleted all of the official U.K. apps that were originally on there(I guess they figured since I lived in the U.S.A., I didn't need or want them.
I had asked anyone before if there was anyway to get back what was officially originally on them as I too paid about $600.00 full price. I was able to flash both over to whatever rom I wanted and back to the stock Italy Gingerbread. But, yeah, it was weird that when they did come back(it was a long drama and took over 2 months-they were lost, sent to wrong service centre, etc., etc.
The reason I wanted the original software was because it allowed me to access the free $200.00 in software like the movies, music, ebooks, games that came with the purchase after I had registered them during their promo that Samsung had. They took that all off and when I go into the websites now, it says that I am not in an authorized network area-even if I change CSC or change time zone. So, I basically had downloaded them when I first had them and wanted to re-download my free stuff. Screwed yet again!
Does that mean if I change my location to UK or Sprint US, I can actually update the TAB throught the Kies provided by the local telecom operator?

[Q] [GSM] Optus - Galaxy Tab Factory Restore

Hey everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab running Overcome 1.6.3
I've been having an issue with it overheating and turning itself off (nothing to do with the custom ROM, was doing it before, I was hoping the custom ROM would fix it but it didn't).
I rang Samsung about it and they told me to take it back to where I bought and get them to send it in to me.
My issue is that as soon as they see that it's running a Custom ROM they'll send it straight back to me!
Basically I'm trying to work out the Optus Factory ROM / Modem / PITT files so I can put the correct files back on using ODIN.
Does anyone have a stock Optus Galaxy Tab they can give me all the info for?
PDA: ?
PHONE: ?
CSC: ?
Model Number: ?
Firmware Version: ?
Kernal Version: ?
Build Number: ?
Thanks,
Mitchell !

Thanks, hadn't seen that.
Will move the question
the firmware my tab came with was JJ4, but when I got it back from repair it came with JMA, so it is hard to say what you should have
Thanks!
I ended up ringing one of the stores and asking them to read me out all the numbers off the Display model (figured it had never been updated).
It is as follows:
PDA: P1000XWJJ4
PHONE: P1000XXJID
CSC: P1000OPSJJ3
I was able to get the PDA + PHONE default files, but I could only get a default CSC file (SERJJ2) because no one had posted the Optus CSC file.
I'm restoring it all now, will let you know how it goes, cheers !
Hi there,
Did you get it working?
I am trying to restore my optus galaxy tab using odin as well, its a nightmare!
I also have the first two files (and not the csc file), but dont know how to do it.
I have the gt-p1000_mr.pit file loaded in odin along with the PDA and phone one (P1000XWJJ4 & P1000XXJID). I have the three boxes ticked, auto reboot, repartition, f. reset time etc. then i press start. It updates for a while then fails near the end. What am I doing wrong? Is it because i dont have the csc file or is there a certain order to do things?

[Q] Can not register on network problem

Since a few days it is impossible to use my Samsung Galaxy GT-I9000 as a phone. Whenever i try using it, it doesnt register on the network.
I am running DarkyROM JVH v10.1 baseband version I9000XXJVO Firmware 2.3.3
If i try to register on the network is searches and searches and searches... but doesnt find anything.
What "worries" me is the fact that when i start up the phoe is tells me its a Samsung Galaxy S II, which it surely isnt!
Please advice.

There is your problem..
Re-flash stock firmware with pit and re-partition, When complete, check you can register on the network.
If so then avoid the ROM which you are currently running.
EDIT: When you say the phone says Galaxy S II, Is this not a boot animation taken from the SGS II ? Or is it the actual boot screen which says its a SGS II ?
Call me stupid ;-) but i didnt save my stock-rom....

No problem.
Head over to www.samfirmware.com and grab one from there, flash it through odin, Instructions are on that site too.
Thanks AzzleDazzle, but now comes up another problem.... Probably very basic, but for me, its all abracadabra.
I have an European Samsung Galaxy S GTi9000, but if i look at the site there are many roms u can download. From Android 2.1 to Android 2.3.4 for "my" device. Which is the one i should use? My ID is I9000XWJVH, which is according to the site an unknown H version.
Please advice once more, thanks in advance!
No worries, Make sure you download a firmware specifically for the I9000
the last 3 letters eg JVH is the firmware version, JV.X. represents gingerbread 2.3.3 and above.
Gingerbread is the latest release, so i would go for one of them, The one at the bottom of the page on samfirmware will be the very latest, Which i think is JVR
So look for I9000XXJVR.
flash that in ODIN and job done you should be back up and running and with the latest release.
The rest is upto you . i.e going to a custom ROM / rooting ect...
i feel more and more like a noob....
I started Odin, and there u can choose for the pit file, or for the pda file (which is the one i should use i guess), but also u have the choices of re-partition auto reboot and f. reset time. Which of those 3 (or non at all) i should use?
I dont know what has happened. I choose for only reboot after flashing. Flashing went okay, but now it seems to be stuck in a loop. The Galaxy S screen gets followed up by a Swisscom screen in a seemingly endless loop.
Worse, with volume down - power on i can not come in the download menu anymore...
Any advice would be much appreciated now.....
Also when trying a re-partitioning via Odin it doesnt work?
Found the solution. Using Odin 1.8 did the trick. I used Odin 1.3 which probably couldnt flash the 2.3.4, while when i tried with Odin 1.8 it worked flawlesly.
Thanks for your help!

Tab 8.9 P7300 terribly messed up - Sort of urgent help neede (someone kill me now)

Hello,
I am not new to flashing stuff on android devices, but new to dealing with this tablet.
I was looking to find an old firmware that would support GSM voice calls as seen on that well-known gsmarena.com video that shows it.
I was running the latest available Clockworkmod recovery as found in the development section and on top of that - [4.1.1][PORT][P7300/P7310] AOSP Android 4.1.1 Stable[11-08-2012]
So I fired up Odin 1.85 and downloaded the oldest available Open Europe firmware (Honeycomb 3.1) available on sammobile.com
The result was the tablet's screen would not light up but it would still have the Samsung boot sound and the short vibration that notifies of the OS startup. The display is black, nothing shows up but the tablet is indeed running.
I am still able to enter Bootloader/Download mode by guessing the time it takes to get there but flashing more recent firmwares from sammobbile is not helping. Still no display.
Any ideas on how badly I managed to f*ck this up?
Edit: Could an old firmware version have fried the display? nothing I manage to flash gets it running... this is so bad.
Edit: Oh wait, the display actually works, but only displays distorted images, a pile of pixelated garbage.
zohmygoodness
Edit: Really, would someone please try and dump their bootloader using ADB shell?
The Open Europe region firmware I flashed and caused the problem has a bootloader in the package so this must be the reason the display is not properly initialized.
Could someone knowledgable enough please provide an ODIN flashable 3.2 bootloader for Tegra 2 P7300 - I do not know if it is possible to dump it from a device. I really need your help.
I am currently downloading almost every 3.2 ROM available on sammobile.com in search of a bootloader.
RESOLVED
Okay, I managed to bring the tab back to life - it only cost me a one month subscription to Hotfile Premium in order to be able download all available firmwares from sammobile.com and search for one that comes with a bootloader.bin.m5
The solution came with Hong Kong. The following firmware release contains a working 3.2 bootloader for the Galaxy Tab 8.9 GT-P7300: should someone ever (and I hope they never) end up in the same situation as me:
Cant post links just yet. Simply visit sammobile.com, do a search for P7300 and download the 3.2 firmware for Hong Kong
