Okay, this is my first post, I have stopped by I feel 100 times but always seem to stumble over and over in the threads. I am wanting to optimize my old 7 inch tab.
First, here are my Specs of my Tab:
Model: SCH-I800
Hardware Version: I800.0.3
Firmware: 2.3.5
Baseband: S:I800.0.3V.E104
Kernel: 2.6.35.7
SCH-I800.E104
Now my first option is to have Jelly Bean or ICS. If there is no way to surely get it done cleanly then I would like to root then possibly put a different ROM.
Can anybody provide a simple step by step? I appreciate it, I also wouldn't mind contributing if this gets completed.
Sincerely,
A NOOB
Thread moved. Please post in the correct sections of the forum and you'll likely receive more help.
Thanks

First of all, hello. I am basically a very, VERY huge newbie that just bought an Samsung Galaxy S I9000B and I would like to start to understand specific terms used in this forums (for example, XXJBA ROM, rooting). Can anyone give me a starting guide about this ? I intend to update my phone to android 2.3.3 but I don't know if it's possible (it is a customized one from a Brazilian Carrier called VIVO and if possible I want to remove everything). So I don't know even where to start. Any guides, specific threads, advices, tips, anything to start ?
Thank you,
Amid
Download an app from the market called 'root and me'. It's a great guide for beginners

Okay, thanks. Let me read all those threads and guides than I will be back for more. Thank you again.
BTW, not wanting to rush things but very curious: will I be able to update my phone I9000B to Android 2.3.3 ? Will the B in the end of the model destroy my hopes ? Just a quick answer, don't need to detail it at this point.
Hello again,
I've read the suggested threads and some other material, included the root and me app information. Now I know that the first step to clean my SGS is to root it. The application don't exactly specify which method should I use: SuperOneClick or Z4root. I understand the SuperOneClick is the old method, more dangerous and Z4Root is a new app that does the job but required USB debugging or something like that. So here is the next question (this way, I will be able to create a stick for all newbies, just by tracing my steps): Which method should I use ? Repeating myself, I have a Samsung Galaxy S, Model Number: GT-I9000B, Firmware version 2.2, Vivo Carrier (from Brazil), Baseband Version I9000BBVJJPD, Build number FROYO.VJJPD.
Thank you very much again.

Hi again guys,
No answer yet ? Really ? Am I doing something wrong ? Am I in the wrong forum (I was directed to this forum from androidz.com.br) ? I've tried to find the answers searching other topics but the search function is not very useful in forums. Also, there is no sticky here to help newbies.
The reason I was asking here is because I can't find answers in other places. I don't dare to simply trial and error, which is what I normally do when I have multiple choices, because I am afraid of bricking my phone; It's not that I am lazy to look for answer in other places; I simply can't find them.
Can someone help a newbie or at least point me to an updated guide ?
Thank you very much,
Amid
As I own a Galaxy Tab with Android 2.2 I would like to change to Android 2.3.3
The Basband version in use is: P1000DXJJ2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 root(at)SE-S604 #1
Build number: FROYO.DXJK2
Now my question is: could I just manual upgrade to version 2.3.3 which I had downloaded, in total 4 files:
P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1q000XXJPZ.zip
dbdata.zip
gt-p1000_mr_PIT.zip
ODIN3 v1.83.exe
Could someone please tell me it's ok to use that files or, if not, point me in the right direction.
Thank you so much for any answer.
This rom is for european galaxy tab, but I think you can flash it on an asian version of the tab. Look at the development section for this rom.

Can I ask two questions...
(a) Where did you get the download from and (b) have you installed the ROM and how did it go?

To your question:
a: androidtotal. com/manually-install-update-samsung-galaxy-tab-to-android-2.3.3-gingerbread/
b: I asked my question in the OP before I try to install!
I do NOT like to brick my Tab with an unsupported Rom! That's why I ask upfront the Rom could be used on my Asian Tab or not.

Thanks for your reply.
Unfortunate, I couldn't post in the Dev section right now because of my post count.
As my Tab is an unlocked Tab with Quadband and 3G (900/1900/2100 MHz) I hope that everything will works with the Europe version, I just want to be sure not to brick the device!

You shouldn't have been posting in the dev section anyway, that is for posting of dev projects/reference.

No, you are wrong. We have a Q&A forum, try using some common sense. Do you honestly think that its sane to allow questions or other type of topics to be created in the dev section? It would just lead to a complete un-organized mess and browsing the dev section would be a pain in the arse.

First at all: The Q&A forum haven't gave an answer within a week or more! Do you really think that's OK?
Secondly: My question were for the Gingerbread Version (Overcome Beta) which is running in the Dev forum and therefore I really do believe that those forum were the right place for to ask questions about that specific version.
After NOT getting an answer in the Q&A forum, I done more researches and found the Samsung Stock Rom (NOT on this forum) and was asking my final question in the Samsung Galaxy Tab General forum.
My remark about the min. post count for to be able to post in the dev forum were just that: A REMARK.
Last but not least, this is a public forum and as long as I stay to the rules, I could post as I like and as it is allowed! There only the forum staff, means Admin's and Moderators who have the right to limit a action or posting ability of an 'normal' user and those will be done in case of an breach of the rules only.
I'm Administrator on one Board and Global Moderator on an other Board and believe me or not, I know what I'm talking about.
If you think that my post('s) are inappropriate, please feel free to report my post to the forum staff.
Have a nice day.

And YES, it works!
I updated the last night from 2.2 t0 2.3.3 and everything is fine now. It's quite a bit of improvement compare to Froyo.
Thanks for the info.
Hey pcinfo1, I'm searching around the forum, we are on the same stock ROM.
I like to know if its ok for me to flash to Overcome ROM v3.1.0-KRATOS???
Thanks!
Ok to flash overcome rom ONLY if you update to stock gingerbread 1st. You need the gb bootloaders installed otherwise you will end up with your tab hanging on the samsung logo. Thankfully overcome has the safe stock gb rom v5 that has the gingerbread bootloaders. All you need to do is find the modem.bin file for your region/carrier and you're set.

Hii, thanks for the reply mate. how do i find modem.bin file for my region/carrier?
I'm from Singapore and it should be considered as Asian set right? Thanks!

The reason there are no answers given sometimes is because the questions are so weak, or have been asked and answered soo many times.
If you post a question that doesn't get answered within a day (not within 30 minutes like some people expect), rethink your question.
Posts that have "Hi guys, I'm new" or "Help, I've bricked my tab" for titles tend to get passed over.
Soo. I used the search button to try and locate a similar thread but i failed as i was overwhelmed by the amount of app related threads. I AM AN XDA NOOB
Im getting pretty good at coding in java and also using eclipse, so i decided to test myself and attempt to make an app that syncronises with a forum [not this one], alowing easier access and a better layout.
I would ike to know if this kind of application could be built in such an eviroment as "jre6" and "jdk1.6.0_25"
Device Details:
Model: Samsung Nexus S
Network: Vodafone UK
Build: GRI40
CPU: ARMv7r2
Kernel: Netarchy-1.3.4-bfs-2.3.3
Mod Version: CyanogenMod-7.0.3-NS
although this was a decent place to post, i think you will get more help in the android software development section, not just this nexus s subforum

Hi,
Got a galaxy note with baseband version N7000XXKK5 and kernel version of 2.6.35.7-N7000XXKK5-CL726566. I'm totally new with flashing ROM such as this on android and I'm just wondering if somebody could provide with the instructions and tools to get me started specifically for Rocket ROM?
I am a returning xda user from the good old times of WinMo on htc touch and htc diamond
Thanks!
first of all you need to get Root your device. If you are non rooted then go to first link of my signature. And remember
You need to post it in Q & A section or to Roket ROM Thread itself.
This is development section.
Yups. 1st u need to root your device. The easy method is CF root by Chainfire
Hi,
Rocket Rom installation is not different from any other Custom Rom one.
First thing you have to do is, sorry for this....., STUDING.
Note is a really expensive phone so, before modding it, take some time to understand what you are doing (I followed Note's forum for 1 month before rooting mine), becaouse with modding you can:
• lose your warranty
• brick(=destroy) your NOTE!! (this can 99% happen if you don't know what are you doing...).
Ok now let's start with real advice:
1) Start from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325369&highlight=efs (ORIGINAL EFS folder is ESSENTIAL for Samsung warranty)
2) Root your Note http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784 instruction on the second POST
3) Go to Rocket Rom page and follow instruction http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380284 (Dev of the Rocket Rom eybee1970 stopped updating this fantastic Rom so , by now, don’t expect further update)
My last advice is READ READ READ and SEARCH in XDA forum, 99% of question you can imagine has just been asked.
XDA is a really great place to understand, but you have to put some effort into
BTW…welcome to the great community of NOTE’s Owner, probably the best Android Device.
Thank you guys for your replies and suggestions. Really appreciate it. These definitely give me a good starting point
Cheers

Questions belong in Q&A, not development.
I would be very grateful if someone could help me root my device. The reason to do so is because the internal memory of my s3 mini is always full so would like to remove the pre-installed apps on the phone. Also to make my device faster (if anyone has any tips regarding this)
I am a complete newbie in regards to rooting or anything as iv always kept my phone standard my whole life lol.
I have a S3 Mini GT-I8190N, Baseband: I8190NXXAMJ2, Android version: 4.1.2
If someone who help me with a good set of instruction I would be grateful.
Thank you
Katie

Hi,
Since you're new here, please read first XDA rules & remember that most of your questions already have been answered. So you simply need to use XDA search bar or google it. Anyway take a look here. Welcome & have fun
