I was trying to get my tab back to stock after messing it up. I was following the instructions off of gizmoninja but it says I have to download and install their wpa_supplicant file so I can flash the update.zip file. I am on DJ11 now. The link is bad that he posted. Does anyone know where to get this file from. This is my second day of searching. Thanks.

I got the same problem,someone please help us with a original wpa_supplicant
why would you want to return to stock if your problem is wpa_supplicant? what has wpa_supplicant got to do with returning to stock?
When I return to stock dj11, the uodate to ec02 fails every time. The intructions I found said that it was a problem with the wpa_supplicant and it said to replace the file so the update would work. The link to the file does not work. Thats why we need it I suppose. Or, is there a better way to fix this?

I made a promise to myself to only lurk here from now on but I can't keep quiet for this one. First, I'm on my tab so I can't upload. Second, I'm sprint so I'm not sure which original wpa you people are asking g for. Third, when you put the modified file into the folder you are told to (did you remember to turn off wifi?), just rename the end of the original file .old or .bak or whatever (after telling file explorer program to go into rw mode of course), so the os won't run it and then just copy the modified file into that folder. Fourth, put the folder back into ro mode and reboot. I used to delete or overwrite files before but decided tacking .old at the end of the filename (works good for stock apks that you want to trial and error disable while testing for fc and stability when trying to lean down the programs loading). It's been much easier putting things back the way they were originally when I do it this way than ripping them out or overwriting them. Deleting or overwriting existing files and not having the original close by can many times come back and bite you in the ass. Flashing back to stock is a time consuming task that gets old really quick when you can't get whatever back into working condition.
Backing up is so simple. Just rename the original file to wpa_supplicant.old and copy over the modified one and reboot. Done. Want to revert? Do the opposite. Delete the modified file and rename the wpa_supplicant.old file to wpa_supplicant and reboot.

Adb wasn't necessary for me. I got the file out of the 7zip and copied to the folder with root explorer. So easy even a caveman could do it.

Thank you for your ever so kind response, my question to you is will this file work on the Verizon tab? That is the one that I have. When I go to that link I can't tell which section that is in so I can read the rest of the posts there to answer this question myself.
I use the same file as shown by oscarthegrouch for sprint SPH-P100 and the file works fine,
but I can not be sure if used in Verizon tab
hopefully can help
Good news guys! I registered on gizmoninja and sent them a request. They fixed the download link. Go here and download it!

I've been searching through here and over on RootzWiki for a Droid 3 copy of BlurEmail.apk. I haven't successfully been able to locate the file or a dump containing the file that I'm confident will work. I am a noob and I apologize for that, hopefully this question hasn't been asked and answered a million times, though if it has I can't find it. I've been looking for the last three hours I promise, I just can't find what I'm looking for.
I have BlurEmail.apk and BlurEmail.odex that I know works on my phone out of my backup prior to installing Steel Droid. Can I deodex this myself, or am I able to just drop both of these files into /system/app and be back in business?
You would have to deodex to use in a rom that is deodexed all ready.
I had to do this as well, needed email on steel droid. Just download Monster Rom bloated, and then you can pull it out of there.
1) Obtain the Deodexed install from RootzWiki. (Or if you have a back-up, that will work too!)
2) Extract the zip file (I downloaded mine to the PC and unzipped it there).
3) Open the extracted folder, then navigate to /system/app.
4) Locate the BlurEmail.apk file (not to be confused with blur_email.apk) and copy it.
5) Paste the file to the SD card or internal storage.
6) Using a file explorer (such as Root Explorer),copy the file from where you put it and paste to the /system/app directory (you may need to mount as RW first).
7) Set the permissions to rw-r--r-- by long-pressing and selecting "Permissions" (this is if you use Root Explorer, other programs may vary). Make sure owner has Read and Write, while Group and Others have Read only.
8) Reboot phone, and enjoy!
***NOTE THIS IS NOT MY FIND. I WAS HELPED WITH SAME ISSUE. I AM NOT COPYING ANYONES HARD WORK***
thats your answer. When it says locate deodex locate the stock deodex not the deodex debloated version. Follow steps. It works. I did it. And im running sd3.

I'm using the email.apk file taken from a Desire Z cyanogen rom, I consider it way better than blur email because I can mix the accounts and assign a custom color for every inbox.
I've just deleted the blur email and copied the email.apk in the system/app folder

I had been able to locate that post you quoted for directions on how to do it, which are straight forward. I'm just having trouble finding a BlurEmail.apk, email.apk, or Messaging.apk that when used in coordination with these instructions gets me to a corporate e-mail inbox. I'll keep downloading different ROM's and trying different ones I guess until I can find one that works for me.
If I ever get to that point I'll attach it to a follow-up post so if someone finds themselves in my shoes later they can just pull that down and be set.
Okay, finally found what I needed to get back working with corporate e-mail. I can't attach to this post unfortunately, nor am I allowed to post links in a post so... I'm throwing this archive up on one of my boxes so if someone else needs it they can maybe find it faster than I did.

hey guys, before submitting a bug to Hash i wanted to ask here if anyone tested this yet and made the same experience as i did: SafeStrap 1.08 is not fully compatible with the XT883.
Backups are not working because \system can't be mounted.
anyone can confirm this?
It's a known issue. If you're feeling brave, you can try my modified (and slightly older, now) version of SafeStrap that'll nandroid backup my ME863, and will probably nandroid backup your XT883 as well.

you need to place the recovery file into the original 2nd-init.zip. backup the original file and check the permissions of the new file. you need to do this after succesful installation of the recovery of course

I copied the 2nd-init.zip to my computer and unzipped it just fine. I put the tweaked recovery file in the folder and rezipped it. I just can't get it back into the /etc/Safestrap folder because root browser says it failed. I checked permissions on every folder in the path (including /system) and user has write permissions on each one, so I don't see how that could be a problem. I'm not allowed, for some reason, to make any changes to /etc/Safestrap except I can extract the 2nd-init.zip to my SD card, which is how I got the copy I tweaked and am now trying to replace back on the device.
If anyone can tell me what they did to put the tweaked 2nd-init.zip back into /etc/Safestrap, that would be helpful.
Thanks.

Well, just tried it using Root Browser and Script Manager, both of which I find to be very capable file browsers, and it didn't work. It's just not letting me make any changes to the folder /etc/Safestrap. It allowed me to extract the 2nd-init.zip out of that folder, but won't allow me to zip or unzip anything into it. I'll keep playing with it and update if anything changes.
Otherwise, I'll just wait till I no longer need the xt883 radio.img to back up and flash ROMs.

Ok, so I got Root Browser to move the original 2nd-init.zip to my sd card and placed the tweaked one in /system/etc/Safestrap successfully, but then Safestrap wouldn't get past the splash screen. I swapped back to the original one and it still wouldn't boot into recovery. Just the splash screen with option to start system or press menu button to go into recovery. I pressed menu and the screen stayed black both times.
Oh well, I'm not in a hurry to flash ROMs or get a backup, so I uninstalled Safestrap for now and will try again when I no longer need the xt883 radio.img.

You don't NEED to change it back, it will automatically on next boot, if you felt the need run the same command but switch rw to ro.

Okay, I'll keep it short and simple.
1. Got the phone and activated it. Running froyo
2. Rooted and installed CWM with the .bat one click file (I think it's the program MT wrote. It wasn't revotoolkit which I know is thecubed).
3. Realized I want to use gingervolt, so I need to update. I use the .bat file to un-root and go back to stock.
4. Try to manually push the OTA download through settings>about phone. Updates the phone to VS910ZV6 which is froyo 2.2.2
5. Try to update again (need gingerbread, which is VS910ZV7) and it keeps telling me "No new Software Update Available"
What gives? I'm thinking it may have something to do with the root? I also tried doing the manual update, you know the one floating around the internet using a .tot and LGNSP or whatever the acronym is, but Megaupload and Multiupload don't have the files anymore. Right now I'm downloading TheCubed's stock shipping rom and see if I can install it and get the update to go through.
Is there any fix that someone might know of? I ask because I've read several topics where people say they went down to stock shipping rom but they still couldn't update to gingerbread...then the topics just stop. Obviously they found their answer, so I'm hoping someone will share. I NEED TEH GINGERBREAD.
Thanks for all the help!
I had the same problem,

Tried to update, no avail. Nothing happens, I just get the "no software available" crap. Shouldn't it atleast try to update the build version? and is there a reason why it changed my build version to V4 but not my software?

ok so i got started with internet explorer quick question how big is the .tot file??? and then is the dll specific or is it universal with v7?
Three things:
1. I was able to open up that .dll with 7zip. if you right click and try to open with 7zip it wont work. Open 7zip and navigate to the zip, then extract it.
2. You'll have to download the .tot (and possibly the .dll) under IE. The .tot file is 637 megs.
3. The .DLL seems to be universal. Once you open it with 7zip it's the exact same size of the link he gave. I'm 53% into the upgrade so I'll let you know if everything went ok.
EDIT: added a third
Everything worked. Installing Gingervolt 1.3!!!!

I have a Samsung Galaxy i987 AT&T GSM US Tablet. I have had CM9 on it working the phone and GPS previously. I now loaded the latest CM10 and have not either found the right modem or have other issues. I loaded the 0923 yesterday and it was said that you could pull the modem from Wiki CM and use CM to load it. I tried both of the modems in the links below one for AT&T and one that says Galaxy i987. Both show that it was successful, but in both attempts the modem.bin file did not show up under the /system/vendor folder. I used Root Explorer to finally move the modem.bin file from both of these download into the /system/vendor folder, and while the modem.bin file did show up, it still has unknown modem baseband and no modem or GPS working.

That is because the latest cm10 move modem.bin back to /radio/modem.bin like cm9 again.

Wow, thanks for the response. I read the thread every night on the CM10 Development, or is that the wrong one. I saw where dev posted you could get your modem.bin from the wiki and use Clockworks Mod to update again. Also, they were going back on the partition to CM9 like to allow 2gb and that there would be a wipe. Nothing said go to that directory /radio/modem.bin, unless by saying that you could go back to wiki like CM9 meant that directory. I thought I could use Clockworks and do a zip file firmware update. I admit that I am a bit new to all of this, but I have been modding something or other back to the Nintendo PS1 and original Xbox days, I guess I still need to get my sea legs here and will take a thrashing once in a while until I do. I do appreciate the help.
BTW, I got my GPS back, but not my phone. I will go back and search some more, but I got the modem.bin file from
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_(GSM):_Support_Downloads
AT&T
UCKJ1
Using Root Explorer I put the modem.bin in the /radio directory. The GPS is working great, but no cell registration. I guess I should say, I get data, but when it goes to dial it beeps and ends the call immediately.
Yes, haha, CM9 was on /radio/modem.bin
then CM10 too, then CM10 move to new MTD partition, and modem.bin goes to /system/vendor/,
then CM10 move back again to another partition (not sure if it is back to same old partition or a new old partition )
but modem is back to /radio/modem.bin
once it is back to /radio, the one in Wiki will work, regardless of the way it is partitioned. You just need to read inside the zip, the updater script put the modem there.
It is a simple matter of modifying the path within the script for any layout.
Having said that, the older modems in modems thread in dev sticky, they are for pre-MTD time. During original Samsung BML partition, the modem is on a partition of its own, so a more complex method is required to put the modem there, including using CWM (zip) and Odin (tar)
But nowadays is just using Root Explorer and you are ok.
That is why I said you should read the whole thread, you will know such changes happening.
There is a CM10 thread and dev and one in General for discussion.
Ask questions in General if necessary, never on Dev one unless you have issue compiling, or have some other dev bug.
If you are interested on CWM updater script, just unpack the rom zip or the modem zip or any of the CWM flashable zip and have a look at the updater-script within the META-INF.
Edit: regarding AT&T tablet no call, I think it is network related. AT&T know you are on tablet and don't allow making calls. That is my theory.
gps and phone fail, baseband unknown
I have the same problem on baseband, where can I get the files and please get me some good link and info.
thanks.
btw is there a way to save the restore data in recovery mode, just in case if I lost it, I have no way to go back to cm9.

Don't flash.
Just unpack the modem and copy and paste modem.bin into /system/vendor using root explorer.

It is the first sticky tread in Dev section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069727
get the JPZ modem.
It says Gingerbread but does not matter.
Unzip it to find a modem.bin
Use it with root explorer or ES File Explorer in root mode, system mounted as read-write.
Put in /radio/modem.bin (there may be one already there but likely broken)
This is the .cfg file of the 4.3 OTA for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active (i537) from AT&T on 1/14/14 for those who are unable to receive OTA because they are not on MF3. (The file doesn't download as a zip via OTA)
Using this on another device would likely cause problems so I wouldn't suggest it.
Also, I did not update because I want to keep root.
Instructions:
1) Download the .cfg file (links below)
2) Copy it over to your phone's internal storage
3) Using a root manager app like 'ES File Manager' or 'Root Browser', copy the .cfg file from internal storage to /data/fota
4) Make sure you have KNOXAgent.apk and wssyncmldm.apk in /system/app for this to take place. A lot of people either changed the name, deleted, or moved the apk for rooted purposes.
**If you replaced Knox and wssync, you MUST reboot for effects to take place since the odex tells the apk what to do on boot**<<
5) Go to Settings>More>About Device>Software Updates>Continue Update
OR the method below which worked for some people (I can't confirm this works or not)
1) Download .cfg file (links below)
2) Change file to a .zip
3) Copy to phone's external storage (the internal will get wiped)
4) Flash via regular recovery
MD5 for .cfg file: F43D00ABDC4FE4D5BFB305CC6598FEB3
If you run into any problems, I won't be much help since I'm not a dev.
REMEMBER! You will lose root with the update. Don't say you didn't know because the warning is here<<<<

Loading it to Google Drive right now. Bandwidth got capped on Dropbox, any suggestions for a place to upload it?
Would it be possible to get some help getting some stock files from the /system/app folder? I modded/removed a few of the stock apps and seem to have lost a big chunk of my original backups. I believe these apps are why the update fails for me as the updater script checks a bunch of the files SHA1 checksums. Seeing as on my phone these apps are missing or modded I figured if I could acquire the stock copies it may finally work.
Files I need, and corresponding odex if possible: (a full copy of the /system/app folder would be awesome if possible)
Blurb.apk
Chrome.apk
Flipboard.apk
Peel.apk
Phonesky.apk
PlusOne.apk
SamsungWatchON.apk
SecLauncher3.apk
I may also need "/system/media/shutdown.qmg" because I know at one time I had changed it, but I cant for the life of me remember if I put the original back
tried everything followed to a T n the option to continue the update is greyed out still
Won't work?
Continue update is still greyed out for me too...
I was on stock MF3 and rooted with activeroot only so I could copy this to the /data/fota folder.
Ditto with winters setup

Are you able to root with any method? It seems as though no one knows about rooting 4.3. This thread has a root method for the firmware leaked before official ota: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2606550 I really need someone to test it so I know if it's safe to go to 4.3.

AFAIK you don't need to have all of those to get the update going cause I have several of those deleted since I got the phone.

I'll load the .odex files for the .apk files that I have in post #2. Save your .odex files just in case and again idk if this would do any harm to your phone so yeah #noresponsibilities

you will lose root with the official OTA and so far there's no confirmation if SafeRoot method works.

Thanks AjC - Just to be clear, do I need these files for "Continue Update" to recognize the update file? I'm confused, I made no modifications other than root in order to access data/fota.

Yup, me too. Continue Update is grayed out, even after copy and setting full permissions.
