Need some advice.. Posted on a few other places but no luck with answers..
So just a few questions..
1. Galaxy Tab 10.1-WIFI/3G version bought in Sweden. Where can I download the stock firmware for my version? ( in case I want to make it stock again. )
2. Do I need to be careful when flashing a custom Rom that it is:
For the european Tab 10.1-WIFI/3G or can I also use the american Rom for example?
3. Do I need to make sure that i install a custom rom with WIFI/3G in the rom, even if I do not use the 3G part? if i do not care about the 3G part for now, and I install the WIFI only version, can I come back to the stock Rom and it will restore my wifi/3g working correctly ?
4. When flashing a custom rom, how do I know if it is for Europe or America and how can I tell if it is WIFI/3G ready? I see a lot of post that say WIFI only but none that say wifi/3g..
I am sorry in advance for the question, as there are many . any help would be very nice thanks

i use a samsung gt i5801 galaxy apollo. on uk orange network. i want to change my rom. but the one i want to use is based on asian firmware. my question is will this work on my phone?
Depends on exactly how different it is. If it's built for a different radio technology (GSM or CDMA) then you shouldn't try it.. if the Asian device has any different hardware or no English language pack then you shouldn't use it.
so in that case. can anyone recommend a better rom for my hardware. if you need any specific handset information i can provide it?
Try googling for it, to start, here is a thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283460
Every Android rom contains all the language files, so the only concern is whether this foreign rom would work with the network of your mobile operator.

Moving to Q&A
im having real problems finding anything useful. i will include my hardware info, hopefully someone could help me?
Model - gt-i5801
firmware ver - 2.2
baseband ver - i5801bvjp1
kernel version - 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
build number - froyo.bvjp1
I see sammobile only has one for europe and one for asia, what did you have in mind?
i need something that doesnt chew my battery up so much. and also something that doesnt freeze up all the time. any ideas?
well i took the plunge and i flashed my first custom rom kyrillos v9.0 jpu with g3mod kernel. works great takes some getting used to though. thanks for all your help. Now updated to 9.5. works wonderfully.
Hi everyone, I am new here. I just returned i9100g for a i9100. Anyways as I look for the i9100 firmware at sammobile.com, there are tons of ICS available. Which one will I install?
Also I am in Bangladesh, however we get mixed region phones: Sometimes from Malaysia, Singapore, France, etc. How do I know which region I have, so it can guide to install the proper ICS.
I installed XXLPJ, everything works well, however I noticed that just like my initial i9100g, whenever I use the voice to setup alarm, it doesn't work. I fixed this problem when I installed the proper region firmware for my phone, which was French at that time. The problem is I don't know which region of the phone this actually is.
Any idea?
Thank you
I dont think different regional firmwares will make any difference in your alarm settings too...
you can check the firmware information by dailing *#1234#
ROM selection
you can have a look for the language supported by that rom, you can also go for custom rom, language information was given there that it support these many language.
Also i am agree with "zaheedahmed" that "regional firmwares will make any difference in your alarm settings" i guess this the bug with that version of ROM, so it better to upgrade your ROM.
Thanks for your responses. What do I need to look after after for the latest firmware, android version? Cause there are tons of 4.0.3

Hi!
I tried different ICS rom's for my GT-P7500, (the UK and Italian versions)
All the time i got no PIN screen for my simcard, nor can't i add a APN.
Also when plugging in the USB i get a "missing hardware-id"
Hope someone can get me on track here.

do you really flashed a rom for the 7500. I ask because when you flashed a ROM for the 7510 (wifi only models) you get the same error. everything works except 3g.
Please post some more details of your current rom which have this error.
These are not working for me (got the Ita en UK ones froms Sammobile) see below:
GT-P7500 Italy 2012 July Android 4.0.4 P7500XXLQ8 P7500OXALQ8
Indeed the UK one was for the 7510, hope i didn't mess up my tab

how do you flashed? with Odin?
Try to flash the stock rom for your gtab. After that, flash the Italy version for the gtab.
By the way: have you root your tab or installed a custom kernel?
Id it all...
From stock via Odin, Root, ICS
All the resets needed and so on...
Not realy a N00B overhere, got loads of experience but this is blowing my mind
Even did a try HEX-editing the files in /elf/ (and yes backing it up b4)
Back to stock now and 3G is fine.
As I have a p7501 I can't really test it, but I will try it tomorrow.
What I've tested is the jelly bean rom out of the dev section. It's ics 4.0.4 based on the Italy room. Really closed to the stock. 3g works fine on my gtab. May have a look.
So if the italy ics firmware file is not corrupt, I've no answer till now.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA Premium HD app
Well, i found out my Device ID / Serial number are gone.
Anyway to restore it?
(also mailed Samsung and waiting for their answer)
Do you have a backup of your efs folder?
I mean as you said you are not a noob and have loads of experience.. I do have a backup of my efs.. Of every single device I own... If you flashed a wifi only rom you even lose you imei and so that's why your 3G is not working
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Yes got backups...
Thanks for this suggestion!
Gonna restore an old /efs/ but furst have to see the read/write rights on these files inside.

If you wanted rooted stock, via Odin, you can look here:

For some reason, I never remember seeing a regular Odin version of the non rooted software. Heimdall version works fine. Have used it before successfully.
This is the thing i read DSLR Controller should work with Samsung Galaxy s3 (bought one just to use for this application, doh), but it doesnt work for me. So i thought if i get another firmware perhaps downgrade to 4.1 or such maybe it will work. Question is.
1. Do i need to have my region or can i install a Norway version when my original is Swedish etc, or China or whatever country?
2. Do i need to be aware of my baseband version and only download firmwares with that version?
Edit: Maybe i need to explain. I need a stock firmware that makes DSLR Controller work as is written on their homepage. The stock rom that is on the phone at the moment don't work, and as from what i've understood on their homepage it is supported. So i figure it's a firmware issue.
