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.
But were not sure if the OPs Tab is rooted.

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.
Hi guys, i've just bought a Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070 and I'm a little confused. My previous phone was a Galaxy Ace S5830i, I had that phone rooted (but it was too easy, just flash a .zip file) and with a custom rom.
So I have some questions:
1) For now I just want to root my new phone but the methods that I found here are not too clear to me. I first saw this method, but my firmware is not there. My phone came with I9070UBLI1 (2.3.6 GB). So i can't root my phone? my kernel isn't even in sammobile.com/firmwares
2) I want to make a backup just in case before rooting, so, what recovery should I use with this phone? cwm? this? or which one?
3) What is "binary counter"? In galaxy ace that wasn't present.
4) I saw that in samsungfirmwares site there are some 4.1.2 kernels, but they are for Rusia. I'm from Chile. So can I flash the russian kernel? will I loose my signal, 3G or something? Do you recommend upgrade to JB? with stock russian or a custom rom?
5) Do you recommend a custom kernel? which one? This looks nice
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope you can help me with those questions (numering your answers just like i did with my questions), I just want to enjoy a lot my new phone. :good:

I read the forums, but I'm still confused, for example, for rooting, in the thread that I linked in 1) there isn't the firmware that came with my phone, so I went to here, there isn't neither, then I read this post, but to do that I need dowload my phone's firmware, but the one that came with my phone there isn't in samsungfirmares web page, so I suppose I can flash anyone for Chile (my country), there are 2, but idk if they will work, so, if I'm going to take that risk I need to make a backup first, but idk what recovery I should use.
I have a mental bootloop

Hi guys I'm running CM11, ICS 4.2.2 on my Galaxy Ace, GT-S5660D and want to downgrade to the original OS the phone came with, I believe it was GB 2.3.6 or 2.3.7. My phone is rooted but I have no idea how to bring it back to the original Android version. Any help would be appreciated!

really simple my bro
first download the firmware from sammobile
then flash it via odin
just select the rom carefully for your GT-S5660D variant
dont download the rom of I or C variant it will brick your phone
if you have any problem ask for help

Thanks for the quick response!
I'm not sure what odin is and I don't think I used it when I flashed CM11 onto my Ace.

Thanks this looks promising. But when looking at this site http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/inde...laxy-ace-firmwares&catid=55:samsung&Itemid=82 there's no Canada under S5830, only European countries. Should I download the Canadian firmware under S5830D?

Before you install anything, is your phone GT-5660D or GT-5830? Make sure to download the original firmware for your device. Installing any firmware meant for another device on your phone can, in the worst case, hard-brick your device. As for the firmwares, you can download the one that is near to your region. In fact, any regional firmware for a particular phone will work on it. You can also find all the Samsung Galaxy Ace firmwares in the following link,

Hope I Helped
I just did it with the help of that thread. Thanks all.

[TUTORIAL] HOW TO GO BACK FROM CWM 6.x TO CWM 5.x
I have a galaxy s3 phone from sprint. it has the MOAR rom on it. It is also rooted. I would like to return it to all stock. I dont know what to search for to find the files I need. So that is why I am posting on here now. I flashed the MOAR rom to it but I need to return it to stock. I have used odin before and I know just enough to be dangerous...lol any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :good:
It is dangerous, specially if you try to flash a rom that WAS NOT MADE FOR YOUR DEVICE
You're on the i9300 / i9305 section. You should go to the Samsung Galaxy S III L710 section
This is the guide
GO to Samfirmware
And type your phone referance which can be found in Setting About phone Phone Model
Download your Firmware
Flash with odin :laugh:
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
