but i have flashed new rom which is gingerbread 2.3.3. But is not rooted does this means my warranty is voided? I want to send it for rma to samsung will they accept gingerbread update on device? I have att tab. Do i need to flash att stock rom?
Maybe I am confused but how can you have a gingerbread Rom if you are not rooted. Wouldn't that be impossible?
Sent from my Epic on Midnight or my Galaxy Tab rooted (feels naked without a ROM)
they (samsung centre) had a tols to detect wheter the gtab was being rooted or not, if they found it..forget about free warranty. I found this funny experience in my place, i did flash&rooted my froyo till last week upgraded to gingerbread by samsung. Then suddenly blank, i mean totally blank wont respond in all way (not even recovery mode or kiess or charging)....they told me i got my new korean battery and also new machine free, i guess i'm lucky to have it since they not found it my gtab was being rooted before
So its good to make tab brick to get new tab.why did they mention about new korean battery? I read somewhere also they replaced someones battery and said its new korean battery. And he said maybe it was chinese battery before. Anyways did you got new tab in brand new sealed box or just the tablet?
Lancelane i am not expert in rooting and stuff maybe i rooted before but how to be sure that now my tab is rooted. Bcos when i did the gingerbread it cleans everything on the tab. So i am guessing its not rooted anymore
yes, i also heard that too about the battery, most of them tell that korean battery is more beter than the china....unfortunately, we never knew when we buy the package till we have complain/claim about the battery performance it self

it doesn't matter to be rooted to flash stock rom
To the OP : is not gonna affect on your warranty at all
ok thanks hope all go smooth
In the settings, about device, does the kernel version say "rooted"?
It is easy to return to stock if you want. Why not call the center and get a definate answer, and share with us too.

I disagree. You're now running unsupported firmware on your device. I would think that would void the warranty.
Thats why I asked Tabing to call and tell us for sure. I for one want to know the truth.
If you return your Tab to absolute stock, there shouldn't be any question about warranty.

Any 'hack' eg rooting will void your warranty.

I'm running custom rom. But if I flashed stock gingerbread it will not affect cuz its official firmware. (not rooted)
Sent From Hell To Take Your Soul
when you say call the center do you mean samsung support? i already sent mine now i will let you know what happens, i flashed it to gingerbread
I wanted to know if you have to unroot and restock your tab when you send a tab in for warranty service, according to samsung, and not people's opinions.
hey guys just a quick update my rooted gb 2.3.3 came back from rma and they fix the issue and restored the tab to the stock att. As I told you b4 I sent the tab with gingerbread and root. But people who can easily go back to stock should do that to be on safe side.
Thank you,Tabing. Are you going to try Overcome Jupiter?
Let me know OC jupiter is better than stock gingerbread 2.3.3 than i will try. BTW did you overclock GTab.?
I have the at&t tab stock gingerbread JQ1, with chainfire v3.3 and Dip7 kernel, and the t-mobile tab with Jupiter rom, neither is overclocked (i don't want to cook my cpu). I like the stock better.

I received a new replacement captivate from at&t with 2.2 already loaded on it. Does anyone know if the bootloaders are the same that are needed to run GB roms? Is there a method of identifying which bootloaders I have? I'm dying to jump on a GB rom, but I don't trust my laptop at the moment so I don't want to use Odin. I read in another post that phones updated through official kies were loaded with the GB compatible bootloaders. Just wishful thinking really. Thanks!

How can I get it working again?
Thankful for any help. (Excouse my bad english.)

You can put it into download mode and flash it with odin. Google download mode galaxy tab. Then download the stock gingerbread firmware from samfirmware.com or xda download site. On youtube there are good tutorials how to flash galaxy tab firmwares. WARNING: you will VOID you WARRANTEE

Okey, thanks for a quick answer. Is there anyway of doing this and not void warrenty? Some recovery thing or something?
Well the download mode is the recovery and kies doesn't provide this as far as i know sry you could send it to samsung

But i am not sure if an official rom will void your warrantee. How did you update it?
Sent from my GT-I9100
flashing official firmware in no way would void any warranty.
You need to find the stock firmware (rom) for your Tab and then flash it via Kies or Heimdall depending on which tab you have, that should get you back up and running unless there's an actual hardware issue.
Thanks alot for your time.
There is no hardware error, this is software.
Can someone please explain in steps how to do this and where to get the firmware and roms or is there any good how-to to do this?
Official firmware is availiable on samfirmware.com registration is free. They also provide flashing tutorials. For any further problems ask me, i'll help

I would like to be able to update it to gingerbread in keis.
I have to devices and they are both galaxy tab 7" gt-p1000 and one of them is updates, why can't i update this one?
I get this.
PDA:JJ7 Phone:JK5 CSC:JK2 (TPH)
So you have one on gingerbread and the other one is on 2.2, right?
Did you buy them both in the same store/ county?
What is modem etc on the gingerbread one?
Sent from my GT-I9100
The one that I was able to update to gingerbread with keis is bought a few weeks before the other one. Not in the same store but in the same country (Sweden, I live here.)
I don't have the other one at home right now. so I don't know modem (by the way, what is modem?)
Thanks in advance.
Hmm modem dont really know should ask google but i'm too lazy. Maybe these two devices are a bit more different than we think... I really have no idea why kies wont let you update it, sorry. I have no galaxy tab (but maybe in some months?) but you could download the 2.3.3 from samfirmware and flash it. The only problem would be that this firmware (marked red) is unofficial. Means that you might void the warrantee.
By the way 2.3.3 is only official on italian galaxy tabs
I personally live in Austria and bought a Galaxy S2 about a week ago. I think that if it would need a repair i could easily flash it to official 2.3.3 (i am 2.3.4 unofficially) and i dont really think about warrantees.
I am not sure if you would not void the warrantee with an unofficial but not rooted os.
But if you want i can help you to get on 2.3.3. It is your choise.
Official 2.2 or
Unofficial 2.3.3

I'm not alone in that my version of the sim free Note only appears to update once when first switched on
To quote an older thread which reflects my own situation closely in all but two aspects in that my Galaxy Note lags and mine was bought in the UK
Quote forum (member: turshija)
(I know there are many threads asking the same question, and I've looked through many, but still haven't find an answer to my problems.
Just to clarify, my phone is not rooted, nor flashed, and I'm planning to leave it that way as long as possible, unless I really can't find any other solution for upgrading my phone
As soon as I've powered it on and connected to internet, I've got an update (OTA), which I installed as soon as I got home and plugged the phone to charger. Since then, I haven't got a single update, whenever I manually check I get "No updates!", and Kies says I have latest firmware, but im stuck on KK5 :S)(turshija)

The lag is most noticeable when trying to copy and past as it becomes almost imposable at times stoping then rushing to keep up with my finger.
When on the home screen swiping between windows and the same again in the stock browser can be slow
also when scrolling up and down a web page it gets quite choppy,
At times it can seem normal, while playing a game like asphalt 6 but every now and again the frame rate subtly skips a beat
coming from a single core iPod touch this is noticeably slower.
I have done a the LCD test *#0*# no problems detected
Looking at the RAM as a possible culprit in Options-Applications-Running services it shows that it has 178mb used and 500mb free yet in Task manager under RAM it has 437mb out of 800mb in use?
The question I'm trying to ask:
Is this a permanent situation do I have a faulty Galaxy Note or is it a matter of watch and wait for the ICS update or should I use factory reset?
As my mobile is past the return date, and until now I've never had a need for a warranty on anything from Samsung.
I don't even know how to apply for a Galaxy note Warranty?
************************************************************************************************************************
EDIT: 06/02/12
My Note is afflicted with the screen bug when set on a low light setting switching power saving mode off has had little effect.
When reading a web page or most notably in the stock Mini diary the back round colour changes ever so slightly from one hue to another sometimes taking a slight pinkish or blue colour.
Can anyone with the same Galaxy Note version posted above confirm the same problem?
I hate to break it to you but your phone is rooted, look at the kernel version. You dont need to be rooted just flash the latest stock Samsung Rom. You will not void any warranty and it takes care of the many issues from older roms

root your phone, it's easy and more or less safe if you do it according to instructions, then flash CriskeloRom for example and enjoy smoothness and absolutely no lags on your Note
Flashing doesn't require knowledge about dark magic, just some reading
Android was not designed to actually work out of the box, I mean it;s true potential can be seen after some tweaking

You need to update your firmware to LA4 and that is the lag free official update. and you will find all solution for your problems. you cant update this directly through Kies or from the device. download the firmware and Odin then flash it.

Forgive my ignorance but if I under stand you correctly when you say rooted do you mean to say that my phone has had a custom rom installed possible from a previous owner?
As the phone came to me in what I had a summed was a sealed box and full original retail packaging I even checked on Youtube to confirm this.
My apologies perhaps by rooted you mean it's not a sim free phone as I had originally assumed?

As an EX-Apple owner I find the idea of having to flash my phone as very intimidating.
I don't regret choosing this phone in fact I love it, but if at all possible I'd rather wait and have Samsung fix it for me.
I guess the question now will Samsung get off there behinds and to something, I don't mind waiting if it's just two months away but that might not be the case?

mobile odin is easy to use and safe, no yellow triangle, no increase in flash counter, but to use mobile odin you have to be rooted first
read, there is a lot of good guides in note section, just follow instruction and you will be ok, I got my first android phone in november, flashed first rom 2 weeks later, phone is ok, still working it's really easier than it looks and well there is a lot of benefits, like customs roms and kernels which are tweaked and can bring best in devices.
good luck!
At this time I'm a little sleep deprived but will take your suggestion into consideration thanks indie and iceangel1980
The problem is I'm used to having it all done for me, I'm a lazy Ex-Apple user but I believe it will be worth flashing it in the end.
Thanks one and all, goodnight

More bugs
In the hope someone is still following this thread I've edited my original post to include the bellow - I hope to avoid posting an unnecessary second thread.
My Note is afflicted with the screen bug when set on a low light setting
switching power saving mode off has had little effect.
When reading a web page or most notably in the stock Mini diary the back round colour changes ever so slightly from one hue to another sometimes taking a slight pinkish or blue colour.
Can anyone with the same Galaxy Note version posted above confirm the same problem?
Is there any consense as to whether this is a software or hardware problem in which case I'll need to send this phone back to Samsung.
If your talking about the changing in hue when scrolling up and down, this was fixed in the newer firmware for a lot of people. If it doesn't fix the issue, then you may have a faulty screen. As suggested earlier, flash the latest stock firmware to make sure.
Thanks indie your a hero
Man this phone as much as I love it's overall design, It's quite nerve racking number of bugs for such a premium product.
I just wish Samsung would be more open about these problems:
We know there is this or that problem where working hard to fix it in a future update.
Not the have fun finding out if you have a faulty half a grand phone for the next two years approach.
That's business I guess.
Thanks again for indulging this neurotic thread starter.

The phone is not rooted as I mentioned earlier. You will need to follow the root procedure if you want to root the phone. Otherwise, just use Odin to flash any Samsung stock firmware. Do not flash custom firmware as this will increase your binary counter and void warranty.

I would also like to know this. My phone is exactly as above (also from telstra au)
...I dont really care about the yellow triangle or counter though(I can sort that out later when there is more support for this model)
I would like to be sure that the process will not brick the phone, this would suck as its only 2 days old .
best if I know that someone else has done it first
thanks.
The n7000b is just a firmware. you can flash another firmware (and it will not brick your phone). the only down side to this is you won't be able to go on the telstra mobile websites, eg. mobile foxtel,
Anyone brave enough to try to root this one?
I just got my note today and would really like root access....
bump
I'm interested in seeing how this goes as well. The itch to root and flash something better than Telstra's rubbish is growing but I am nervous about the process (it seems vastly different to my old Desire).
I find the stock rom not too bad.. GREAT battery life, the only thing I want root for is to record my calls (use it for work).
I have a call recorder installed on my stock Note that doesn't require root. Got it off the market too.
It's called Call Recorder.....

Anyone done this yet?
I tried the call recorder apps off the Market but none seem to record properly, they just use the speaker.
My note originally from Poland (!) bought via UK back in early November (can't believe I've had my wonderful toy for over six months now!) Given that there were very few Notes back then and next to none in Oz, I was very nervous about rooting and flashing - the challenge you are facing today. I spend many days reading nearly all the threads before biting the bullet and doing my first root!
All I can recommend you do is read Dr Ketan's flashing guide very carefully and make sure you have a backup. I've had a few nervous moments with black screen but always been able to recover by rebooting into recovery and restoring a backup. I'm on Telstra and never had a problem with any firmware I've used (I don't using Telstra Foxtel)
I know that the latest version requires you to flash an older version of ROM before you can root, but once done you can remove all the annoying rubbish and use great programs like Titanium backup to backup and restore the apps you want and freeze the CPU hogs!
I hope that helps you - my experience was different and I felt very alone the first few times I flashed (never having done it before) but the forums have been a godsend in helping.
PS I have never used Mobile Odin - I have found that CWM does all I need it to
So if the WiFi freezes on the N7000B, would it use a different WiFi chip or something? I did hear that the N7000B supports 5GHz and 2.4GHz where the N7000 supports 2.4 only. Not sure if this is true
Hi, I've had the n7000B for awhile now. and flashed most of the firmwares from n7000 model with no problems. been on GB, ICS. all spec about these models are the same. but still haven't found out why this is B on our model.
anyway it is safe to flash n7000 on n7000b!
Hey, this is my first thread so I have no clue what I'm doing
Anyways, does anyone know any good custom ROMs for the Galaxy S6 AT&T version? I found stuff for different carriers, but very few for AT&T and the ones I found, I didn't like.
Also, lets say I rooted my phone and installed a custom ROM (God, I hope I am using the right vocab), that would void my warranty, but what if I "unrooted" it and went back to the original software? Is there a way Samsung would know?
Sorry, if I'm speaking in layman's terms lol I switched from iPhone couple months ago, and I love what I can do with my galaxy but I just want to do more.
Thanks!!
There are no custom roms for the 5.1.1 versions. If you Odin back stock firmware Samsung won't know if you rooted
