So I was hoping you guys could help me out here...
My dad has a Galaxy Gio from Bell/Virgin Canada. The WiFi on it is extremely flaky so I thought there might be an update or something. But Kies says it doesn't support upgrading this device. Anything I can try to get the WiFi more stable?
Sure its not your home wifi? My gio has rock solid wifi, always works, never fails.
What firmware are you using ? And what are your problems ?
Are you having spontanius reboots ? If so, try Russian 2.3.5 from Sammobile, it's solid as a rock for me.

I would like to know that too. Will probably never use 3g neither since teethering is available.
Just go ahead, it works nice. Just as you say, you loose 3G and thats it.
how to backup original firmware and data?
7500 to 7510
I would actually like to flash the other way....from 7500 to 7510. The Market issues drive me crazy since I do not live in the USA. It seems that if you have a radio enabled device then other people have had great luck just using the MarketEnabler app to gain market access.
Has anyone tried this on a 7510? Does it work?
I did, by mistake and it works just fine.
But you are losing mobile Data which might suck from time to time.
I'm loving what I hear here..
As it is as of right now, I see no chance that I'm ever going to use my Tab with a sim-card in it. And as it seems most custom roms are WiFi-only, this would mean no problem installing one of those..
And from what I understand, I could always just flash back my original rom (I'm guessing a Nandroid-backup can be done from CWM ? ) ..
what's the status
For those who have installed p7510 roms to p7500, please let me know the outcome. i've asked around, some say it will brick the tab, but here it says otherwise.. so now im confuse......
i have installed many 7500 roms on my 7510 and nothing is bricked , I can now play gameloft games, that I can't with 7510 roms.
7500 and 7510 is the same and you can install all roms. On the 7500 and on the 7510 (Only the devicenumber will change)
Have anyone tried to flash p7500 ROM on p7510, then mod to enable phone call function? I wonder if this works on p7510 over wifi?
I have Korean Galaxy tab 10.1 3g model. It has DMB Antennae which I don't use, so I flashed P7500 rom on it. I also don't use 3G function, so I flashed 7510 rom again and it works without any problems.

Hi All,
First off I apologize for my layman terms and my ignorance. I am a brand new Samsung Galaxy SII user. I have a plan with AT&T and mine is stock- My girlfriend is who has the problem, therefor I am asking for her.
She unlocked her Samsung Galaxy SII herself and is on an in-state cell provider. She has rooted her phone and encountered some problems... Calls not being heard, bottom touch buttons not working, etc. So currently we are working on getting it back to the stock i777 (it's on a 9100 and upgraded to 2.3.5) in hopes of returning it.
I downloaded Odin onto my computer in an attempt to help her. I downloaded the rooted system package because she wanted to keep her root, and I downloaded the Modem thingy to help with the calls not working. I thought I could just extract these and put them into Odin, but it's not doing anything :/ It recognizes them but starts to load up and then stays where it's at, and everything is the same.
I'm frustrated because Im a complete noob to all of this. I am used to iPhones and iPhone terms, and I am familiar with jailbreaking them. But things like Kernel, pit, modem, etc are all foreign words to me, so I am having trouble picking the right words to search for in the box.
Is there anyone that can lend a complete moron some help? I dont even know where to start. I'd love to get this fixed for my girl.
Flashing to i9100 ROMs are to the blame for all her issues. International versions are not compatible firmware and hardware wise with AT&T version. You will get button issue and call issues.
The problem you have is probably due to a newer boot loader being updated to the phone and it is refusing anything other than the i9100 ROMs.

Bootloaders don't do anything like that.
My suspicion is that it's some sort of driver problem. Beyond that, I don't know - I've never flashed from Windows before.
She shouldn't need to return her phone. Running an I9100 ROM and modem is known to cause ALL of the issues she's having.
Does her device have working Clockworkmod Recovery? If so, try flashing Cognition X2 from the development forums here. Make sure it's X2, not S2 - S2 is for the I9100. Cognition X2 is intended for our phone.
Thank you both for your replies so far! I am going to try the Cognition X2 and see how that works.
I had the same problem.
Use this as a guide fixed it:
Recovering an ATT Galaxy S2 after flashing GT-I9100 Firmware in the development section.
We got it fixed! Buttons work and so do the calls! Back on i777 too! Thanks!
Hi everybody,
I'm new to the forum and would appreciate any help anyone could possibly offer me. I recently bought my Galaxy 10.1 and have been using it fairly contently for the past number of weeks. However I was recently looking to install Allshare and found that it was only available on version 3.2. So I entered 'Settings ->About tablet -> Software update -> Update. While trying to find updates I get the message 'Connection failed'. There is no problem with my internet connection as I am constantly online carrying out all other regular operations. When I connect using KIES, it doesn't propose any update to me.
I am living in Luxembourg and am wondering if that could be a problem considering the region of my device is 'XX', which does not include Luxembourg. But I would have expected another message, such as 'No update available'.
Any ideas anyone? Whatever I do, nothing seems to help. I'm open do any other options for updating my tab.
Thanks in advance,
Damien (Luxembourg)

get a custom rom ASAP
Yes it seems you have a bad case of "wait for the manufacturer" problem. There is only one cure: get a custom rom. The trouble with the Tab 10.1, though is that there aren't any custom roms based on Honeycomb (3.x) (to my knowledge anyway) since the source was never released by Google. So your only hope is to jump straight up to a version of ICS (4.0), which are pretty early releases right now.
Having said that I have done it and pretty much everything works fine for me. Look in the Android development for KANG (make sure you get the right one, they are different for either the wifi or 3G one).
Other than that, have a howl at Samsung I guess.

Incorrect info. There are many custom roms based on HoneyComb 3.2 in the development [email protected] If you aren't sure when giving advice, don't give advice?
Roms based on official 3.2 Honeycomb. I just picked some of the most recent releases, there are quite a few more.

Ooops, my bad. Sorry. I just read somewhere that Google never released the source to Honeycomb so I assumed that there was not going to be an AOSP. Yes I should have checked before opening my mouth on that.

And what if you download Samsung Kies on your PC and connect and update through it?
Samsung Kies is the official application by ... Samsung yeah (..) but it's not the world's most reliable application. Sometimes you might even have to install this more than once for it to recognize your Samsung device and update through it.
Maybe you already tried this, just ignore my comment then
I had something similar although my GT saw the update. After downloading it refused to install (update from approximately 13 MB). After reboot it ran the update to 13%, then rebooted and stated that it could not update. Same story when I tried to update through Kies. Trying to solve this one I flashed P7510XWKI2_P7510OXEKI1_SER through Odin on the tab and tried to update again. This time the update file was approximately 88 MB and got stuck after 9% and rebooted also telling me that it could not update. When trying to update through Kies it finally successfully updated. Maybe a bit much work (and tricky ) but it works.

Thanks for saying that. I appreciate it. It has renewed my desire to keep interacting on the forums (and learning more about what I am talking about).

Hi all ,
Just received an OTA update on my international version of Samsung Galaxy s3.
New update shows JRO03C.I9300XXDLJ1 in phone information menu.
What I'm worried is that no official information is available on any website or any forum. I've tried it everywhere on the net but found nothing.
Can someone please guide what's going on with my gs3.
I'm using gs3 in Pakistan and not under any operator contract so things appear for my phone as international version. Most of the previous updates were pretty much documented or someone had discussed them oddly , this newest possible release is 4.1.1 and changed plenty of things.
Any info will be highly helpful.
Best Regards,
Busyboy

I installed this new firmware, my SIII became so laggy! I just want to go back to the previous version
Anyone who knows why this version is so laggy?
I have updated my phone to this version then all of sudden no calls coming through. People telling my my phone is unavailable when infact its switched on.
I then discovered that when I turn off the mobile data the calls do come through. I am not sure if there is a setting I have not picked up. I have tried GSM only and Dual Mode but same problem. Would this my phone, Network Provider ot what. I have to switch off my data now.
How do I revert to the previous version?
problems in Build Number is JRO03C.I9300XXDLK1

Hey Guys,
I am having the same problem. The day my Samsung Galaxy S3 got updated with Samsung's JB update, the performance has gone down.
The phone really lags in opening the keyboard, switching between Apps and the list goes on.
I am looking for some links to restore my ICS again.
Does any one know how ??
does anyone know the complaint email id for reporting Samsung G S3 ?? :cyclops:
It seems like there are quite a few people experiencing problems with this JB update? I myself experienced it for a while but now it seems ok again??? I don't know what or where or why though? It seems strange that Samsung would release an 'update' without making sure all glitches were ironed out? Surely they must be looking into a solution? I know a lot of people on here say 'flash a new rom' but to someone like me, even the 'easy' tutorials are a completely different language & seem so daunting!!

Try going to sammobile and reflashing 4.4.4, when I initially flashed the OTA my Bluetooth stopped working in my truck. I reflashed and everything worked as advertised. I'm now on cyanogenmod 12 it's awesome!
