[Q] Latest update - what does it do? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to find answer to this everywhere but failed so far - does anyone know what changes / fixes were introduced in the latest 3.x Mb update? Btw, contrary to some reports, it did not bricked mine nor blocked the bootloader (I'm on rooted P7510 with stock 3.1 + TW).
Thanks in advance and sorry if it's already covered elsewhere

Trying to unroot...but won't update.

Hi all, I successfully unrooted using this guide here:http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-unroot-your-galaxy-tab-10-1/
But my problem is that his "stock" file that I flashed is an I/O Stock rom, so it won't receive any official updates after the first 11mb update. (won't update to 3.2 Touchwiz)
I would like to give this tablet to a family member and I want them t receive official updates (Like ICS) in the future, so I basically need to get my Tablet back to the point where it can receive official updates.
I did a little more digging trying to find a stock rom and found this rom "hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip(StockROM)", from this link --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089 but it appears to be the same file for I/O as before.
I then found this link here, to a European Stock Touchwiz update rom, "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167250" But I'm afraid since its european, it is still not my original stock rom I had for my Tablet I bought in the USA.
Can anyone help?
i have the same problem... but i'm from Malaysia..
although from one of the guide, it says Asian Stock TW, after odin, my device doesnt seem to be recognised by KIES for any official update... also notice that the build number is different from actual Asian version (compared this with my friend's tab)
btw, from samfirmware, the zip file contain 3 files (data, csc and bootloader)..
i only flash the data and csc(as suggested in the guide)... do i need to flash the bootloader too? could that be the reason why i cant get KIES update?
btw, if your from the US, hav u tried the guide from "filesfordummies"?
i think thats the stock US version of the tab...
Do you have a nandroid backup? if you have restore that backup and you have an actually.
Sorry but my english is very bad

Samsung Galaxy s2 new Odexed firmware

Hi,
At the moment I am running stock v2.3.5 with custom kernal (Speedmod latest version).
- Today I got message about a new firmware update (I think), it was about 200 MB. Its downloading now, dont know much about it yet.
A have a few thoughts, What will this update do?
- Restore recovery to default?
- Restore kernal to default?
- Can I restore back to 2.3.5 with my existing backups?
I am quite satisfied with the stock fw now that I managed to install jKay Deluxe, havent thought about cfw yet.
Thx guys... This site rocks as usual... Everybody... Keep up the good work!!

Thread closed as not development

[Q] Just got an OTA for spanish 4.1.2

Hey guys, I just did an OTA sw update (spanish official 4.1.2 rom, rooted & no other modifications).
Since it didn't contain any useful info other than it's a software upgrade, I'm confused about it. What did they upgrade for me? Was it rom related? I haven't noticed anything different about it so far.
Any info about it is welcome.

That 22 mb update will get you to LSD.
Thanks for the info!
Btw, just found out that the OTA has in fact failed, so I tried doing the upgrade via Kies. It went well, except for the fact the root has been removed by the update and I had to re-root. Also, the CWM I flashed a few days ago was gone too (but I used stock rom to root).
The changes I have seen with this update is only that my kernel now has a new build date (31. jan 2013).
can you post a review or comparison with your old rom (I assume it was LS8),

Well, I can't really post anything useful, since I was looking for "the perfect rom" from the moment 4.1.2 official appeared. Before that, I was on 4.0.4 official. The only real thing I've noticed (between this and all other roms I've tried out) is that I have a bit high battery drains if I keep WiFi turned on while at my office. I've figured it's something about the router itself (never use Apple made routers!), so I "fixed" it by not using WiFi at work.
Sorry for not being more informative, haven't really done any elaborate testing apart from noticing obvious things like battery drains. The only thing I can say for sure is - 4.1.2 >>> 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 official >>> custom roms for me.

SGP561 Custom ROM Question

So I installed this recovery successfully (woohoo!) Now the question is, what can I do with it? Obviously rooted and whatnot of course.
I also hear that there is a new firmware upgrade for this tablet specifically, and I was wondering how I could apply that seeing as the system update in my tablet doesn't work... (thanks Verizon?) but you know, just trying to get to some newer firmware.
Thanks in advance!
Here's the recovery that I'm talking about:

Firmware update, how to, where and what?

Hi,
I apologize in advance for this question.
I'm new to this flash thing.
So first of:
Is updating the firmware to the latest one a good idea in general?
How do I find out what firmware I have?
How do I find the firmware I need?
Where do I still find firmware for these old phones?
Are there any benefits for updating all this before I attempt to install a custom rom and / or a custom kernel?
How do I actually make a full backup of everything if there ever might occur an error or mishap?
(Must guides I find online are awfully outdated or suggest software that may not actually work)
Thanks in advance
Sincerely
Julian
