[Q] Galaxy Tab P-1010 update. Is there any WIP? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any work on the update for the Wifi only tab, beyond froyo?
I've searched everywhere but seems like there is no safe (or even unsafe) way.
Are we waiting for Samsung on this?

I am waiting for it too.

No, its your fault for getting a crippled device. If you want custom roms get the real version.
There isn't really any work been done on this device simply because it worthless. All the devs have full specs not watered down versions.
I apologise if this is brutal but its the truth.
If you really need cfw, sell your wifi only and get a real GTab because the chances of you been satisfied are slim and 0.

Is your fault been a schmuck? Also are you a dev? A lot of people are having this model because is cheap so what. Is better that other tab to the same price (Creative Ziio), also is quite new, so is only time that a dev in spite the spec will work in the p1010

nothing to do with price, Its because its crippled hardware, Its not the same as the device you see here, It different and less hardware.

Yeah ok, you keep telling yourself that, hopefully your dream will come true
look, You may think im been an arse here, That is your choice, All im been is realistic. You could have had plenty of people saying yeah it may happen, Im just been honest when saying its very unlikely that its going to happen, if at all.

so far

so far the only thing i have managed to do is root it (admin access). Flashing and all the other neat stuff is for diffrent models. i just read a post of someone trying to flash it with diffrent FW (firmware) and it bricked it.
so thats it for now root it and enjoy what u have till somebody manages to flash it. but like many have said this is unlikely because its at the bottom of the to do list because it lacks hardware and other specs
also note that samsung really doesnt even support it. on there site if u go to support and try and find ur modle p1010 it wont give u a support option.

You should have gotten the magic since it has more ram and will be supported longer with updates.
You can always use search button or even simple google search:

Well.. I use AT&T's 3G, as I live in the US. So, I had to "import" it from Canada. I already have a jailbroken iPhone 3G S. So, I really don't want another touch screen phone with the same form factor. The G1 has the physical keyboard and seems like it could make a pretty good back-up phone. Do you think it's pointless for me to keep this G1, even if I get the latest and smoothest ROM available???

The HTC Dream is the only phone with Android that I can think of that has support for AT&T's 3G network AND a physical keyboard. The BACKFLIP is coming out, but ... yeah, I'll pass on the whole MOTOBLUR OS. Also, what are my chances of bricking the phone? Seeing as I've never done this before and have no clue where to start.

You can worry about that later your jumping the gun already and your phone is still stock.
First you need to root and if your successful then you can worry about using roms.

Android 5.1.1 OTA being rolled out on T-Mobile for the S6 edge!

RELEVANT TO US BECAUSE WHEN WE GET THE UPDATE, IT LOCKS THE BOOTLOADER.
IF THEY LOCK IT FOR THE S6 EDGE, THEY'LL LOCK IT FOR THE S6!
DO NOT TAKE THE OTA IF YOU DON'T WANT A LOCKED BOOTLOADER.
Unassuming Galaxy S6 edge users are in for a surprise, as T-Mobile appears to be rolling out a freshly cooked OTA based on Android version 5.1.1 Lollipop for the device. The catch, however, it is so far reported only on the T-Mobile network.
XDA forums user Sunderwear mentioned about the OTA a couple of hours back (at the time of writing this story). Urged by other users of the device, the poster also uploaded a video of his Galaxy S6 edge running the latest firmware. The video can be found at the end of this article.
As noted from the narration, the update also locks the bootloader on the device.
So, how many of you have already received the update? What do you think of it?
Source: http://www.sammobile.com/2015/04/29/android-5-1-1-ota-being-rolled-out-on-t-mobile-for-the-s6-edge/
Looks like someone in the Edge forum was able to downgrade the bootloader and flash TWRP but still, tread carefully.

ok I downgraded the Bootloader ONLY and I was able to flash TWRP...dumping a system.img copy..

Coming from the ROM Flashing mecca of HTC and finding a place in Samsung is.. weird to say the least. I find that there are only minor things I need that require root but I no-longer need the overhaul that I needed with HTC. It's too weird.

Isn't it odd that just one guy has gotten the update? T-mobile has sold hundreds of thousands of these units and only one guy got an OTA?
I'll believe it when I see it.
Is it possible to do the update if we are rooted? And I mean UPDATE not flash the entire new release.

This type of thing might happen with a lot of updates. You need to remember the rooting/moding community is very small compared to the people who just use their phone as is. So if anything I think its weird that someone in this community got the update.
Hey I hope it's true, I for one hope it fixes the memory management and battery issues.
According to this guy, it looks like the XDA member was part of a "Soak Test", or he is a guinea pig. Hopefully it doesn't take months to test it.

Damn I wish this would leak for AT&T. 5.0.1 TW has a bigger memory leak than stock 5.0.1 on my Nexus. This needs to be rolled out ASAP, but I know it won't.

5.1.1 soon

Just in case this thread doesn't get locked here is a copy and past of my post from the other thread. Important not to freak out about bootloaders unless months go by without the app.

It seems like the person got a test release by accident. The kernel build date is yesterday. No one else over on the edge forums has received it either. Dont seem to be false as the person even posted a vid of it. Dude just seems lucky lol.

Well the ota update was dated 4/27 and the phone was released on 4/28

Will anything past OE2 ever get Root? (OG5,OG7,etc..)

Anyone know of any active developement regarding the 925V variant? Way too nice not to have root.
There is zero development.
Zero KNOWN progress. Who knows for sure though. King root might work for us one day or it might not.
There wasn't much development on my tmboile s5 either. What phones do have good development these days?
I guess mostly just Nexus devices.

I've stuck with my ATT Note3 on TMO, and TMO Note4. My son has a Sprint S6 Edge on TMO and it has surprisingly quite a bit of development. If I knew anything regarding locked vs. unlocked BL's I'd have a go with this 925V. Just really surprised at the lack of development for this device. Sucks!
Unfortunately, it seems that we've been left in the dark. Surely one of the many devs would have a thread going with some sort of progress update if any were working on it.
@spadz93 That's kinda what I'm thinking. Too bad. I use way too many root functions to even consider keeping my 925V. Really nice hardware either way. I'll probably look for a TMO variant.
Verizon sucks anyway. Worst service I've ever had. I liked T-Mobile way better. I have constant dropped calls, missed texts etc with Verizon.
I would pay good money to have some development for this device... without development, its useless... anyone interested? pm me =]

I wouldn't go so far as to call it useless... It's still a solid phone with decent hardware. Just because you can't root it and install custom ROMs doesn't make it useless. I'm more interested in a phone that works consistently everyday than I am the ability to push the hardware to the point of random reboots and overheating. Once I gave up root for 5.1 I've had next to zero issues with the phone and I like it much more.

Yea, my statement is a little exaggerated but no xposed is huge for me personally. I like to play with my phone and customize it. Without root and xposed, I can't do that like I could with my s4 so it bothers me
What upsets me is the fact that devs give up trying to root a phone if a solution doesn't come within a month or two, if the phone is the only variant that still doesn't have a root and it will take more effort than a few tweaks to do it. I've seen it over and over again with so many phones. If I knew how to even begin to look for a root on the phone and I had the money to buy phones that I could burn in the process, then I'd totally work at it.
what I dont understand is theres ppl with the Note 4 that are able to root 5.1.1 using King Root and no one has tried it on any firmware beyond OE2 for us yet..
I know one person said it worked for him on OF1 but need more to confirm before I update and update all my ROMs.

Well, devs need users and testers for feedback, testing, development, ideas and more
You (talking generally here) want something - you need to get off your high chair and either show some initiative and work toward a common goal
or keep whining and pretend to be entitled to judge and have an opinion of others that you virtually know nothing about - well great, but that does change exactly nothing (and causes abound frustration to become even more)
Or do you expect that miraculously out of nowhere without any work of preparation, thought and development - there pops out a ROM and is immediately 100% fully usable
Thanks to @moonbutt74 and his tester(s) for getting this in a close to daily driver material state,
There appears to be issues with microSD (external storage) detection on Ivy (Z4/Z3+) SINGLE Sim compared to Sumire (Z5) SINGLE Sim,
so that currently doesn't work
I don´t think the Z3+ is a bad phone in any way. I think Sony screwed up the release and promotion of it alot when they named it Z3+ instead of Z4 (like in Japan). They also very quickly released the Z5 which didn´t have the heat issue.
I come from a long line of phones with great community developed ROMS (HTC Desire, HTC Desire HD, Samsung S4, Moto X) and I have every confidence that this phone could be great too if the devs got all the files and info they needed.
